Out now on Rebellion: lnk.to/RBL080

Damian Lazarus’ Rebellion continues its release schedule this April with the launch of a new various artists series. Rebellion presents SOULS Vol.1 acts as the maiden edition and sees Tim Engelhardt, Senzala, Cancellieri and Asevenes inaugurate proceedings. 

Label founder Damian Lazarus had this to say on the release: "With so much incredible new music being created in the world, I noticed that I was finding new sonic connections between a number of up and coming producers. Fresh souls, speaking a fresh new sonic language directed at the dancefloors in our minds. Welcome to the new Souls.”

Tim Engelhardt’s Ionized feat. Hannah Noelle gets the VA underway, as shimmering pads cosy up next to Hannah’s emotive vocal offerings. Gentle piano rolls converge on a warming backbone throughout to form a poignant opening cut. Senzala’s Slow Burn soon ups the tempo, pairing tribal drum patterns with resonant percussion and stripped-back kick-hat combos before Relayion by Cancellieri soon arrives. Featuring echoing synths and a dubby underlying bassline, the near seven-minute piece feels both surreal and touching in one, leading serenely into Asevenes’ Blue Ride. A punchy, late night number, driving kicks marry up next to ethereal synth tones before whispering hats transport us to a world far removed from ours.

Hailing from the thriving musical output of Cologne, Tim Engelhardt is one of Germany’s brightest young talents with releases on labels like Stil Vor Talent, Cityfox, Innervisions and Fryhide. Based in London, Senzala is no stranger to contemporary house’s leading labels. Cutting his teeth on Art Department’s No.19 as well as Dubfire’s Sci + Tec, his collaborations with both Richy Ahmed and Jansons received widespread industry acclaim. Originally releasing under various pseudonyms, Italy’s Cancellieri is quickly establishing his presence in the scene. Having found a home on the prestigious Margot Recordings in recent times, his debut on Rebellion now marks a pivotal career moment. First coming to prominence in 2019 with the four-track Now Now Now 03 on Man Power’s Me Me Me, Asevenes’ appearance on Rebellion presents SOULS Vol.1 marks his second ever release, a testament to his keen-ear for production.

For their twelfth installment, Scatcity welcomes the duo Colossio & Sobek. Label head Skatman also makes an appearance on remix duty.

A versatile EP that combines the influences of both artists, low-tempo, tribal grooves, bizarre vocals, and deep melodies are the core of this EP named "Fragmentado". 

The title track kicks things off with a steady beat, glitchy vocals, and a mysterious melody that carries the listener to a drop with a stabby arp and a syncopated groove.

The Skatman reconstruction transforms the original track to a peak-time sharp synth-driven track.

"Vision Peligrosa" starts the B-side lowering the tempo with a groovy and tribal beat topped with bizarre vocals that hypnotize the dancers till the early hours.

“Murmuros"  closes the EP with deep rumbling drums that roll along as foundations to warming synths and echoing toplines.

Dopamine Shot 54 - igor Bartyuk

AEON is nearing its 50th release. Before we touch that big number, we would like to share a fine record by the honcho himself, Alex Niggemann. The inspiration behind this release was found in experimenting with a vocoder. Alex explains: “society might have us all as robots if we didn’t take care to be open minded - both musically and in general. That was the inspiration and it was great fun to make.”. A view that fits the current zeitgeist perfectly.
The futuristic theme is felt from the offset, as the forward-thinking sound of „Like A Robot“ gets underway. Reverberating beats blend into echoing machine-like vocal samples, before chiming keys give way to a stunning lead synth that feels both emotive and danceable in one. The vocoded vocals meeting a plea to replace the human race with robots, cause the track to have a rather dystopian notion. 
The ‘Technology’ vibe is inspired by late 80ies breakbeat tracks. Once the beat is in full range with the sparkling & upclimbing synths, pictures of vintage B-boys & girls videos, making their acrobatic dance moves, are projected in our minds. A slight twist brings the classic Juno 6 lead synth characterizing the main part.  
For the remix, AEON invited Fabrizio Mammarella, who’s known from his release on DFA, Permanent Vaca- tion or Jennifer Cardini’s Correspondent as well as his collaborations with Lauer as Black Spuma. Mam- marella’s version of ‘Technology’ transforms the break beats in a solid 4 to the floor groove, while the more electro sounding bassline of the original is replaced with a classic Italo inspired synth sequencer that un- doubtedly will please the crowd on the dancefloor. 
The last original track of this EP is called ‘Shepherds’ named after those who control. Poignant strings dive in and out, while the constant loopy groove could bring back memories of musically inspired „Moroder“ nights at good old Studio 54. 
The 49th release on AEON is again a complete pack by the Berlin label.
