Originally from Newcastle-upon-Tyne but now residing in Bristol, talented up-and-comer Port Manteau has introduced his wide-reaching sound palette via the likes of Street Tracks, 10 Steps North and Zerothree as he explores the wider corners of his own electronic influences. Beginning the next chapter of his young career, having supported artists such as Sasha, Hot Since 82 and Yousef, late March welcomes a new project to the mix as he launches his own label, Kitsch. A home for explorations across indie dance, progressive house and electronica, the imprint will look to ‘combine the best of past and present’ to showcase unique and eclectic musical experiences, starting in style with the launch EP ‘Mandala/Apophis’. 

“I believe in pushing boundaries, experimenting, and carving out a new space in the industry. It’s one thing learning all the technical stuff, but the real effort is creating a totally different track that no one has heard before. My sound is all about taking the best of the music I love from a variety of genres and ending up with something unique.” - Port Manteau. 

Powerful and expansive title track ‘Mandala’ opens the package with authority, with a medley of sweeping synths, captivating vocals and energy-building melodies combining for an endorphin-driven anthemic lead offering. Next, ‘Apophis’ unveils a melting pot of sounds, drawing from a wide range of genres, from Italo-influenced leads to bubbling acid basslines, for a scintillating ride to close the show. 

Port Manteau ‘Mandala/Apophis’ drops via Kitsch on 24th March 2023.

♡ Release date : 24.07.23

After releasing the track “You Like The Sun” in our compilation RetroFutur, Atmoss is back ! The spanish producer drops here two original cosmic and dancefloor tracks mainly inspired by New Wave, Melodic House or Trance. Sometimes, the vocals and percussions cut the rolling basslines. And breaks are out of time ! The first remix by our french buddy Brandski is the perfect vintage remix, inspired by EBM or Italo. The New Wave vocals are highlighted thanks to beautiful pad and lead and a groovin’ retrobass !The UK based producer LA MANO is back too. And he drops a great melodic remix with an incredible deep bass, making the song haunting and melancholier than the original. For the heart, but also for the feet !

INCOMING :  Endrik Schroeder - The Dogs #BordelloAParigi

Release date : 2024-06-21
Buy : https://bordelloaparigi.com/shop/vinyl/endrik-schroeder-kittin-the-hope-12/

In 2021, we welcomed Endrik Schroeder to the Bordello family with his Second Breath 12”. The memorable hooks and attention to detail that characterised his first appearance run deep in his latest. The Hope sees the French producer accompanied by a true legend of electronics, Caroline Hervé aka Kittin. Hervé’s penchant for combining brighter tones with darker shades is evident from the needle. Industrial hiss pierces swirling vocals. Clean claps, warm bass and crystalline chords give way to woe-streaked lyrics, lyrics that ascend into an arc of pulsating synthwave pain. Schroeder takes the reins on the flip. A beam of light is cast over throbbing arpeggios and a slicing snare, notes drifting ever higher as “The Dogs” takes hold. Strings swim as a spread of sounds grow, a palpable energy building under Schroeder’s watchful ear and hand in this seven minute plus odyssey into his machines.

Correspondant is thrilled to unveil Panthera’s new EP, Tragedy. While the enigmatic French producer keeps his identity under wraps, his music speaks loudly with its bold, audacious sound. Panthera's signature blend of Italo-disco and vibrant synth melodies creates a perfect mix of euphoria and nostalgia. With Tragedy, Panthera presents three harmonious tracks, all built around a shared sample. The EP kicks off with Tragedy 1, a cinematic journey where dramatic synths and groovy basslines merge effortlessly. Tragedy 2 ramps up the energy with a dancefloor-ready arrangement that pairs perfectly with soulful vocals, building tension without ever fully releasing it. Finally, Tragedy 3 slows the tempo, layering a bright, warm piano melody to create an uplifting closing to the project. Adding unique spins to the tracks are two skillful remixes by French duo Known Artist and Belfast artist Jordan Nocturne. With Tragedy, Panthera delivers a rich and radiant project that leaves listeners eagerly anticipating what’s next.

These two tracks will be featured in their first album coming out later this year.

PREMIERE : Palavas - Testarossa (Original Mix) [Azzur]

Audio & Video artist. 

In the past 2 years, I've been working on re-productions of old games music of the Commodore 64. My concept is to use the original sounds of the C64 and not just sampling it or replay the music on random synths, like many artist have done before. This was quite challenging technically, and I had some frustrating moments as well, but I got over those and you can hear the outcome :-)

This is actually not a release yet, but more of a demonstration upload, to share on the social media. I hope this way to reach the people who may help figure the copyrights issues and to turn this into an official release. My fantasy is to get this stuff being pressed on vinyl one day...
