MBR437: Sun Ra - Door of The Cosmos (Armonica Cosmos Mix)
Release Date: 18.06.2021

Sun Ra, the pioneering Afrofuturist music legend, transcended the concepts of time and space. Now, almost three decades after his departure, his sound has been reinvented by the wizardry of Italian
duo Armonica, MoBlack's longtime friends and masters of Afrocosmic remixes. Armonica's new extended reworking of Ra's original recording of "Door of the Cosmos" is a timeless and hypnotic space odyssey, a dynamic groove that can dominate any dancefloor. The propulsive rhythm interweaves the vintage vocals of Sun Ra and Arkestra queen June Tyson. Teleport with intergalactic riffs, hypnotic percussion and pulsing basslines. When you knock at the door of the Cosmos and gain admittance, you may just want to stay forever.

MBR437 - Sun Ra  - Door Of The Cosmos (Armonica Cosmos Mix)

Vhyce returns to Pets with more of his beautiful signature cosmic disco and his timing is exquisite. Making his debut on Catz & Dogz label earlier this year with 'One Day We'll Float', the release landed just at the right time as we all plummeted into a bleak new year.

Now as summer begins to open up again, and things look a little brighter, he returns with equally precision-timed sounds. With its sultry bassline and big romantic pads, 'Monde Réel' hits with a big dose of hope. Translating to 'real world', this is a homage to the future. And that positivity remains on 'Insieme'. This time translating to 'together', it's another moment of unity as Vhyce takes us up and down the scale in classic Q&A arpeggiated style. Soft, gentle but emotionally soaring; you can almost feel the hugs as the woozy synths roll out.

Always one for balance, Vhyce includes the much tenser and introspective 'Subdued' for those darker moments when unity and togetherness seemed so far away. Then Catz N Dogz close the show themselves with a startlingly bright and dreamy take on 'Monde Réel'. Hopeful, fun, wholesome feel-good electronic music. Because Vhyce makes it so damned well. And because we all deserve to float again.

Moojo & Arodes’ upcoming Healing EP on MoBlack Records is the introspective sonic journey we could all use right now. Starting off the three-tracker is a synergetic collaboration between the two artists. “Reborn” graciously melds organic instruments with crisp synths and celestial harmonies, transcending climactic progressions with resilience and clarity. Up next, Arodes casts “Storm.” Propelling moist undulations and fierce metallic resonance, this electronic submersion is a potent nocturnal cleansing. Wrapping up, Moojo delivers a finale to infinite bliss. Drifting stunning melodies and deep, mesmerizing rhythms, the title track is the perfect balance of lush instrumentals and elegant electronic cadences. A “Healing” for the soul, through the power of vibrations.

Chloé Caillet - Doudou (Edit)

A melodic house track blending club friendly drops with wistful breakdowns and an atmospheric lead vocal. Inspired by the likes of Franky Wah and Nora En Pure with their emotive musical approach. I wanted to make something that touches people and doesn't necessarily conform to one specific genre.

3.	Modular Project – Ancient Tree
4.	Modular Project – Leaf (Benjamin Fröhlich Remix)
5.	Modular Project – Leaf (Konvex & The Shadow Remix)

Italian melody makers Modular Project reveal their debut EP, a nature-dubbed and organic five track effort merging tech house and electronica.

The endeavor kicks off with the nostalgy laden yet upbeat “Leaf”, whose steady bassline gives leeway to a dreamy developing, synth lined harmony. Aptly entitled “Into The Woods”, the second track goes into deep territory via distorted synths, a wave-reminiscent element that remains its central focus til the very last sequence. The woodlandish journey fully unfolds at the third track, a contrastingly darker cut, filled with modular piano bits completed by arpeggiated synths. The title track gets a dubby makeover from Permanent Vacation’s Benjamin Fröhlich who plays upon the nostalgic synth line, turning it into a peak time drama by adding squirmish crowd vocals. Konvex and The Shadow take on a less dramatic, but equally serious approach, stripping off some synths but adding oscillating bleeps and lower pitched drums for extra gravitas.

RELEASE DATE: 2016-06-06

Ricocheting through the ample, time is the most precious commodity of all... choosing where it's spent can fluctuate it's properties – minutes can seem like days, or hours can evaporate into thin air as you lose your grasp in the here and now, and why wouldn't you want to?

Burrowing into this concept, Crossfrontier Audio are proud to announce the brand new project from the dynamic duo Danito & Athina, the Losing Time EP.  

Following on from their heavily rotated debut - the Fire EP, it was inevitable that Danito & Athina get right back down to business with 3 exclusive tracks. From the studio there is no stopping them, we're given some heat right in time for summer, with sounds that embellish the memories we'll all make this year on the sun stroked dance-floors. 

Whether it's the silhouette of vocals dripping into the track, or losing yourself in the moment with everything... feeding off the frenetic energy that Losing Time provides, the title track is one to watch out for, and highlights the production chemistry that Danito & Athina pour into their music, which can give out some real magic.

And the magic keeps going right through the whole EP! Fitting every piece in the right place is the track Tetris, a compacted and powerful cut with a whole lot of kick that's another part of the package, and if that wasn't enough, we have the rhythmic twister that is Swipe, a uniquely different and fun track to set the mood for any night, and it's making a lot of noise in the process. 

It's because of tracks like these that Danito & Athina are gaining head-way and earning a solid reputation, in essence they're tearing at the opportunity to bring more dismay to the floor with seriously good music, and we love them for it, so don't miss out.  

Already being played out by some HEAVY names, the Losing Time EP  will be released via Crossfrontier Audio and sees the light of day - 6th  June, for more information hit us up at contact@crossfrontier-audio.com

As &MEs last two EPs on Keinemusik have been hitting the bulls eye of public perception immediately, his KM034 for sure will meet high expectations from DJs and crowd alike. What should one do within this sort of spotlight? Boil up the same old formula? Milk the cow? Play it safe? Well, &ME is rather going for the dont overthink it and just do whatever you like-option. Which in case of this "One On One"-EP is a collaborative effort with English singer/songwriter-enigma Fink thats letting musicality rule over functionality.
The titletrack on A comes creeping over the floor like an ash cloud. Built up on a grainy beat-pattern, having all lightness dashed out by droning bass, before Finks vocals are exorcising the ghosts of a heavy comedown. "One On One" has shaken off the facility of peaktime-consensus, before the straight kick comes in, but even that unmistakeable floor-referral is invalidated by gloomy harmonies after just a few bars. An obvious move against leadsingle-standards, but considering its omnipresent dark narrative and ultimately condensed vibe, "One On One" is without a doubt one of the strongest &ME cuts ever.
The offering on B1 might be considered as a bit more handy, but still: "Cape Coast" is rather grooving along a serious jungle-delirium than delivering easygoing beach-pleasure. A lot of hissing and chirping and rattling going on in between dense synth- and bass-layers, while live-recorded percussions are escalating into frenzy. Tribalhouse of a rather demonic breed.
Finally, Fink is stripping down the original outline of "One On One" into a sinister and subtle Dub-interpretation on B2. Blurred delays, sparse synths and occasionally implemented kick-detonations, reminding of an alarmingly lowered RHR. Meaning even wider room for his charisma breathing croon.

And finally we find Adam Port on B2, pursuing his knack for lost African treasures. Once again he finds the source material in an old traditional by Quim Manuel O Espirito Santo. Port's edit of "Eme Lelu" seeks to update the original in some of the rhythmic patterns and create a whole new dramaturgic, floor tweaked build up, yet he leaves the original's cheer- and playful nature untouched. Cheers to Analog Africa for providing the original composition.

When one could assume, &ME entered the House and Techno world somewhat out of the blue, it is due to his sublime modesty that’s already captured in his alias. His way to become one of today’s most praised and sought after DJ/producers is based on a solid foundation. A foundation comprised of solo-releases, remixes, projects and collaborations that numerous, we’d rather refer to his discography than weary you with namedropping. Besides, all those references would just distract from what truly matters – the music this guy is delivering. Not to underestimate the importance of a project such as Terranova for &ME’s current path, but still the alignment has been made – to focus consistently on his solo-work. And it shows.

There are not many artists around turning in such a slew of globally praised floormaterial like &ME did over the last years. Just think of his last offerings on Keinemusik, a collective of Berlin based DJs and producers, including Rampa, Adam Port, Reznik & artist Monja Gentschow, he helped founding in 2009, namely “After Dark” and “Woods” or his “Vermillion”-remix for Damian Lazarus – all serious bangers, played by every renowned DJ worldwide. Everything is falling into place for the fella. His DIY-approach to handle things, his easy going attitude, his reputation as a gifted producer and DJ extraordinaire, his ability to link innovative production with consensual reception, making him one of the most unique and original figures in the game.

Music is my passion. But my earnings are elsewhere.
Live in Morocco.
I mix for money and use this money to help poor kids live memorable moments.
Go to cinema, karting, paintball, concerts, football games ...
