Raik feat. Henri "Hold Me E.P." (Golden City Sounds 002)

The double A-side EP, Hold Me, is Golden City Boy Raik's debut release. Raik founded the Hamburg-based label, Golden City Sounds, with German house legends Boris Dlugosch and Isi Tüfekci (otherwise known as one half of Digitalism) in March 2013. Hold Me is the label's third release, following Dlugosch's Look Around You single, featuring Roísín Murphy (Moloko), and Polargeist + Kruse + Nuernberg's Good Times, a deep house, feel-good anthem of the summer.

For the first track, Hold Me, Raik teamed up with Henri aka Henrietta Tiefenthaler, producer, DJ and also singer in the psychedelic Krautrock band Thrillionaire. With her romantic, dystopian lyrics, Henri's hypnotic vocal delivery gives an emotional depth to this slice of shimmery, pop-electronica.

The second track, La Musique, is a euphoric club tune, a perfect counterbalance to the more rhapsodic melancholia of Hold Me. With its hooky synth line, infectious groove, and sexy French spoken word vocal, its arrangement is flawless and guaranteed to suck you into its retro-futuristic world.

This long-awaited EP will be sure to deliver on the expectation.

Modern Amusement - Cold As Ice (Louie Fresco Remix)

ÉR & Peterson (Julien Pierson) - Coconut Skins (TimeMusique Remix)

Swiftly following on from the killer Grass is Greener release on his own Ladies and Gentlemen label, Phonique returns with a dope remix package featuring today's debut transmission from Larse.

Teaming up with Swedish singer / songwriter Antonia Vai, Michael Vater produced a one of the tracks of the year with the original, and here four perfectly curated remixes add new dimensions to the song. Production dream team Florian Kruse and Nils Nürnberg drop the Kruse & Nürnberg remix that kicks off this release - a tough and funky rework primed for deep-leaning dancefloors.

Label regular Bruno Be provides one his signature high quality remixes - honing in on tight drums and subby, housey bass for the vocals to soar above. Dortmund native Larse (Lars Brodherr) provides the remaining two versions, drawing on his well-proven skills to turn in a pair of infectious, groove laden cuts that will slay dancefloors and rock headphones for months to come.
