SPREAD THE WORD LP

Agents Of Time - Stoke

Spread The Word feat. I Read Wilde (Original Mix)

Stem Records imprint kicks off 2014 with a two track single, comprising an original track from Agents Of Time, entitled ‘Lost Dreams’, and Orbis Terrarum turning a remix on the flip side.

Italian trio Agents Of Time aka Andrea Di Ceglie, Fedele Ladisa and Luigi Tutolo, are fresh names on the scene, making their debut on Stem Records. ‘Lost Dreams’ is the first single from Agents Of Time’s forthcoming L.P set to drop via Stem later in the year, seeing the outfit deliver a sound characterized by a fusion of electronica, techno and ambient soundscapes. A perfect fit for the Stem Records back catalogue, which has seen the spaced out sounds of Legowelt, the hypnotic, vocaldriven electronica of Mooryc and Ted Alexander’s gritty house style featured.

The original mix of ‘Lost Dreams’ kicks off the single, seeing the trio play on ethereal ambient soundscapes, bumpy analogue rhythms, whirring, distorted guitar tones and arp-style synth lines. Creating a ghostly, entrancing atmosphere that subtly blooms as the record progresses, while intermittent breaks introduce swirling dub echoes and vocal murmurs, to further fuel the expansive dynamism of the composition.

Then on the latter half of the single we see Orbis Terrarum rework ‘Lost Dreams’, taking things in a more upfront, hook-driven direction, bringing a weighty kick and lingering stab sequence to the forefront, while sporadic percussive hits, expansive reverberated vocals and tension building pads, generate a cold big-room vibe, which much like it’s predecessor seemingly never falters and keeps unfolding, yet in a more refined and understated way this time.

As always from Stem Records we have more classy, sophisticated electronic music here, kicking off 2014 brilliantly for what’s expected to be another great year for the imprint. Agents Of Time’s ‘Lost Dreams’ EP is out on Monday 27 January 2014.

Mind Against & Locked Groove - Elysium / Pulsar
Hotflush Recordings
HFT040

Hotflush unveils its second release of 2015 in the form of a collaborative single between label mainstay Locked Groove and ascendant Italian duo Mind Against.

With both acts coming off the back of triumphant finishes to 2014 - the success of Locked Groove's huge Enigma EP and Mind Against's surge into #33 position in Resident Advisor's 2014 DJ poll - 'Elysium / Pulsar' marks the first time the producers have collaborated. The end result combines Locked Groove's punchy, dancefloor-ready aesthestic and the emotionally resonant melodics that Mind Against have made their signature since breaking through with Life And Death in 2013.

Rodriguez Jr. "Mistral" (Stephan Bodzin Remix)

Patrice Bäumel debuts on Afterlife with two striking and successfully road-tested tracks, to be released on May 12. 

Pre-order your vinyl copy here: bit.ly/MTN-AL004

‘Glutes’ is peak-time material without being overly fast or chaotic, the energy instead coming from the transportive arrangement and emotive melodic content. The same can be said for Bäumel’s ‘Surge’ on Kompakt, an anthem in the sets of Tale Of Us last year which led to this release.

The title track rises and falls, surging with wide-sweeping synth notes and a steady rhythm to anchor the waves. An infectious refrain pulls you further in and, right on cue, the kick drum continues to beat the sweet spot. ‘Engage’ is filled with similarly subtle details, uplifting arpeggios and atmospheric reverb. Half-way through the melody bursts into life, shining brightly through the haze and creating one of those moments of release that make the Afterlife sound work so well on a dancefloor.

Mark Tarmonea & Yannek Maunz - Prelusion 
will be out May 24th on 3000Grad Records. 
Including remixes by MOLLE aka Mollonobass & Stephan Zovsky

Prelusion: Ein Track der sich anfühlt, als würdest du im Abendrot ein heranziehendes Gewitter über dem Meer beobachten während deine Füße im warmen Sand tänzeln. Mark Tarmonea & Yannek Maunz modulieren ihre Melodie wie eine sich auftürmende Sturmwolke, bevor sie die Luft über der Tanzfläche mit analoger Knarzigkeit marmorieren. Es klingt monumental und dramatisch, ist aber auch von einer zeitlupenartigen Entrücktheit durchzogen. Der Remix von Mollono.Bass hält sich nah am intensiven Melodiegeschehen des Originals, färbt dieses jedoch mit einer etwas dunkleren Klangfarbe ein und schafft durch langgezogene, fließende Bewegungen eine  Stimmung von hypnotischem Understatement. Stephan Zovsky schlägt gewissermaßen die andere Richtung ein, denn er lässt die Lichter seiner technoiden Trommelmaschine blitzen und erzeugt dementsprechend viel Druck im Rhythmusbereich.

Prelusion: A track that feels like watching a thunderstorm brewing in the glow of an evening over the sea while your naked feet are shuffling in the warmth of a sandy beach. Mark Tarmonea & Yannek Maunz modulate the melody as if it was the mounds of a bulging cloud before they marble the air above the dancefloor with the analogue bite of the lead synth. It sounds monumental, it sounds dramatic - yet there’s also an underlying vibe of dreamlike tranquility. The remix of Mollono.Bass picks up the melodic arrangement of the original but presents it in slightly darker colours. Long and fluent movements create an intense feeling of understated hypnotism. Stephan Zovsky goes the other way, as the lights on his technoid drum machines flash like an arcade game, providing a profound amount of rhythmic boost.

'As the summer wraps up, we do too. And few acts wrap us up as tightly in their atmospheric weave than Venezuelan duo Fur Coat. The clue’s in their name, after all. Just as it is for this release on Systematic: ‘Ethereal’ packs much more than an otherworldly punch...'

Fur Coat - Ethereal EP

Premiere: Fur Coat - Ethereal [Systematic Recordings]

Agents Of Time is the project of Andrea Di Ceglie and Luigi Tutolo. A revered two­man live act, DJs and masters of their sound in the studio. 
Since starting their journey together as Agents Of Time, the two Italians have combined their talents and shared influences to become a globally in­demand dance act, releasing on a number of leading labels along the way. A much­loved debut 12” on Correspondent in 2014, ‘Polina’, marked them out as an exciting new name in the realm of emotional, melodic techno and kickstarted their touring career. 
A hardware­heavy, improvisational live set spanning house, techno and acid is at the heart of what they do. The two members perform around a square table, facing each other, translating a symbiotic energy through the machines and communicating through instinct and gesture. A complex, unique and unpredictable dance between human minds and analog equipment that invariably creates moments of magic. Their live set was partly inspired by an expert of the craft in Mathew Jonson, and it is telling of Agents Of Time’s success that they now count Jonson as a collaborator. ‘Repeating Patterns, Numbers and Letters’, Agents Of Time’s first studio collaboration with Jonson came out in March 2019, following live shows together at Rex Club (Paris) and Movement Festival (Torino). 
The adventurous spirit and heady sound palette is channeled into house, techno and more obscure selections. 
Their work in the studio is a free­flowing ritual, an extension of what they do on stage. ‘Spread The Word’, their debut album came out Stem Records in 2014 and was followed by hit EPs for Maceo Plex’s Ellum Audio, their own label Obscura and Curle Recordings. A relationship with Tale Of Us and multiple appearances at Afterlife events has also led to Agents Of Time signing to Afterlife with the stunning ‘Dream Vision’ EP and 'Paradigm' on the Realm Of Consciousness compilation. 

The Agents Of Time are taking careful steps and showing themselves to be gifted, versatile performers with each one. Whether on record, on stage or at an any event, count on a high­quality output, finely balanced between experimentation and a straight dancefloor vibe.
