Volantis feat. Hiroko - Yokai Parade EP - ALZ07

A1. Yokai Parade
A2. Yokai Parade (Eden Burns Remix)

B1. La Kappa
B2. La Kappa (Fabrizio Mammarella Italorama Version)

Release date: 14th March 

Ancient Japanese spirits meet contemporary electronic music in Yokai Parade EP,
a mystical collaboration between Italian producer Volantis and Japanese artist
Hiroko. Inspired by a psychedelic experience in Kobe where train sounds
summoned supernatural visitors, this four-track journey merges folklore with
modern dance music through a unique blend of hardware synthesis and haunting
vocals.
The title track "Yokai Parade" leads listeners into a shadowy realm where Hiroko's
Italian narration intertwines with Japanese train announcements, calling forth
ancient spirits. Eden Burns transforms this nocturnal tale into a hypnotic,
percussion-driven remix that deepens its ceremonial essence.
On "La Kappa," Hiroko embodies a playful water spirit, her accented Italian
dancing over dreamlike sequences. Fabrizio Mammarella's
Italorama Version injects classic Italo disco energy, creating a perfect bridge
between Japanese mythology and Mediterranean dance floors.
Co-produced with Niccolò Barozzi, this vinyl and digital release captures a unique
moment where East meets West, and traditional folklore dissolves into electronic
rhythms.

DPR é um artista brasileiro que está sendo cada vez mais requisitado pelo mundo, principalmente na Europa. Muito disso é por conta das características que carrega como DJ: mixagens impecáveis, pesquisa fora da curva e case com raridades que você dificilmente ouviria em qualquer outro set. Neste mix, que marca sua estreia no Alaplay, ele divide os decks com Lost In The Supermarket, projeto comandado por Marcela Vivan, onde explora uma pesquisa mais orientada para pista de dança, voltada à estilos como Breaks, Electro, Early Trance, New-Wave e afins. O resultado desse encontro foi uma jam sessions despretensiosa com vibe de um afterhours, passando pelo Downtempo, Breaks, House e outros sonoridades similares.

MIKROMAL. #021 by Monika Ross
[engl. below] 

Mit MIKROMAL. #021 liefert uns die in Australian geborene und London lebende Produzentin und DJ Monika Ross ein temporeiches und dynamisches Set, das uns ab Sekunde eins in Bewegung bringt. Von knackigem Breakbeat über UK- und Two-Step-Garage zu deepen Housetunes entfaltet sich ein klar strukturierter Sound, der facettenreicher nicht sein könnte. 

Mit Wobbelnden Basslines, punchy snairs und einem Gespür für Tiefe flowt sich das Set spannend und konstant rhythmisch durch unsere durch Ohren und Beine. Vielseitig, kraftvoll und präzise gemixt ergibt sich ein perfekt ausbalancierter Groove. 

Wir sind begeistern und dankbar für diesen unverkennbaren Stil in unserem MIKROMAL Soundkompass.

Find Monika here: http://m.soundcloud.com/monika-ross

Dein Sound in einem Satz:
Texturreiche, basslastige Banger mit cineastischem Klangcharakter. 

Peak Time oder Closing?
Beides – aber Peak-Time mit tanzwütigem, aufmerksamem Floor ist, würde ich sagen, meine Stärke. 

Bier oder Secco auf Eis?
Eher der Martini-Typ – aber ein kaltes Bier ist einfach nie unattraktiv. 

Team Schabernack oder immer vorne links? Schabernack 

Dein/e alltime dance-to DJ? Veterans: Rossko/Anthea/Tristan Da Cuhna/Brawther/Sonja Moonear/Raresh More recent: Borren/Yosh/Julien Fuentes

With MIKROMAL #021, Australian-born and London-based producer and DJ Monika Ross delivers a high-energy set that gets us moving from the very first beat. Crisp breakbeats, UK- and two-step garage, and deep house flow seamlessly into one another, creating a well-crafted sonic journey—diverse, distinctive, and full of character.

Wobbling basslines, punchy snares, and a finely tuned sense of depth drive the mix forward, making it as captivating for the mind as it is for the dancefloor. Versatile, powerful, and precisely blended, the set strikes a perfect balance of energy and groove.

We’re deeply thankful and buzzing to add this unmistakable vibe to the MIKROMAL sound compass. 

Your sound in one sentence: Textural, bass heavy bangers with cinematic sonic qualities. 

Peak time or closing? Both, but peak dancers and an engaged floor is my forte, I would say.

Beer or Secco on ice? More of a martini gal but but cold beer never gets uninviting. 

Team mischief or always front left? Mischief 

Who's your go-to DJ for dancing all the time? Veterans: Rossko/Anthea/Tristan Da Cuhna/Brawther/Sonja Moonear/Raresh More recent: Borren/Yosh/Julien Fuentes



MIKROMAL #021 by Monika Ross [AUS/UK]

Being French-born, but now based in Ecuador, it would seem that Nicola Cruz has the perfect mix of influences on his sound. Fair enough, he did move to Ecuador when he was only three, but as a result of the many musical mixes he has been exposed to in his early life, he has a truly unique sound of his own. Nicola has an unwavering thirst for grooves of all shapes and sizes, and these can be easily noted via his many releases for the likes of fabric, Rhythm Section, Multi Culti, and his stunning downtempo longplayer for Nous’klaer Audio.
