Don't Worry Psy Happy

Sebra Cruz – Flying Junior


Two very different versions of a techno soul. You can virtually feel him putting hands on knobs and twisting and bending the theme in his delicate and hypnotic way. Who ever has seen Minilogue play live this feeling is captured here by Sebastian in an authentic breathtaking way.

"Direct Experience" in its original version is an 11 minute voyage into Sebastian Mullaert's art of shifting and moving frequencies gently from one place to the other without ever loosing touch with the pulsating rhythms that carry all of it into your vein. The music is indeed trippy and demands an appreciation for a hypnotic state we happily approve of.

The Dub version on the flip side is even more loose and secluded you can feel the music not touching the ground for a bare millimeter.

For the digital release we added two remix versions by our Scottish artist Nick Dow and by Hamburgs analogue cyborg Hannes Rasmus as well as two alternative takes by Sebastian Mullaert.

Nick Dow's version is a post Detroit techno interpretation uplifting and dramatic. It has "Jupiter sounds" kicking in that give the track a touch of the "Night Of The Jaguar"!

Hannes Rasmus who has released the high acclaimed "Musik Für Fünf Machinen" on Traum moves the track towards a glitter ball of disco! Guitars are slashing and sound are clashing… Hannes at his best when he has melodies embracing themselves without any reluctance.

"What’s up with Mathias Schaffhäuser?"

During recent weeks, several media outlets and nearly his entire fanbase scrutinized how close Mr. Schaffhäuser was to the Abyss, wondering whether one should worry about him or if it was time to light the bonfire to celebrate his illumination. There’s a big mystery about his long-awaited Abyss single release: is it a meaningful hymn of our times, or just a sentimental, melancholic mirror of Mathias’ mental state?

Well, luckily things are different from how they may seem at first sight, and nobody should feel troubled for the Cologne-based artist. The lyrics of the song emerged spontaneously during one of his DJ sets, when he improvised and sang along - one of Schaffhäuser’s special skills - inspired by the 1989 sci-fi film of the same name, a fascinating deep water adventure. The stand-out message is a positive one woven into a dark fabric. “Build me a bridge over the Abyss”: get your things done, be active, don’t lose your hope - life goes on!

'Abyss' was originally released on Schaffhäuser’s acclaimed 'Diderot' album on Biotop in 2016. During a preliminary listen, it was immediately the most touching track for label boss Patrick Zigon, and formed the basis of the idea to work on the album. Timo Maas and Ruede Hagelstein were additionally fascinated by this dark yet luminous masterpiece, so the idea of a strong remix single was born and quickly realized. Timo delivers a rough version with banging drums and trippy vocal effects, while Ruede Hagelstein adds beautiful harmonic synths to his reductionist hypnotic voyage. Patrick Zigon captures the ‘80s vibe and underlines it with classy electro breaks, while Mathias speeds up the original with his 'Accelerated Mix'.

'Abyss' will be released in May, complete with sensitive mastering by Werner Niedermeier and a beautiful cover design by Ninash Noori. More information: www.biotop-label.net.

International Deejay Gigolo Records are releasing a remix compilation of label head DJ Hell. “Anything Anytime“ is taken from his 5th studio album Zukunftsmusik, the release features remixes by Dubspeeka and Flashmob. The original track “Anything Anytime“ is a melancholic journey through experimental soundscapes, featuring moody vocoder vocals and a gentle sounding piano. First up, Dubspeeka brings us a more restrained techno interpretation that retains some of the experimental character of the original.  To follow up, Flashmob’s tech house take on “Anything, Anytime“ seeks to change up the mood of the original with it’s robotic vibe.
