Andrea Cassino has been a long-term contributor to the Proton Music catalogues in both solo and collaborative guises. After a 2017 debut with his “Divine” and 2019’s “Losing Part of Me” EPs, the Argentinean based artist returns with his twin-track “Asante”. In collaboration with Buenos Aries resident, Lio Q, signed to the likes of UV, Clubsonica Records and Nick Warren’s The Soundgarden, Andrea & Cassino & Lio Q present “Asante”.

The title track is a flowing rhythmic offering that explodes into life with syncopated motif and strong dancefloor character. Free-flowing synth phrases add a moment of contemplation that reach a zenith at the breakdown, while the second half continues the powerful rhythmic groove as bass, melody combine in hypnotic fashion. “Karibu” continues the exceptional percussive drive of its partner-track as an African-inspired melodic phrase adds context and sonic imagination. Pulsating gently as it weaves a path across a magical 9-minute voyage, shimmering synth plucks at the breakdown extend into the post-breakdown zenith along with a glorious array of uplifting counterpoint phrasing.

Producing from his Córdoba studio at the base of the Sierra Chicas mountains, Sebastian Sellares is an artist who has shone brightly since a 2018 debut for PHW Elements. Hitting the heights on the likes of UV, onedotsixtwo and Meanwhile, October 2020’s “Jinsei / Zen State” was a Proton Music high point as the two original tracks were joined by remixes from Nick Muir and Matias Chilano. Now returning, the Sebastian Sellares remix is a powerful tour de force that grasps the themes central to the original and transforms “Asante” in a mesmerising and brooding club floor-filler that oozes class with its rhythmic intricacy and smooth melodic phrasing. Building effortlessly into the breakdown, chord changes and rousing crescendo pave the way for the rhythmic intensity and dramatic melodies to make their presence felt in the third movement to devastating effect.

A Proton Music debutant, Gaston Ponte has already demonstrated his considerable talent on an array of blue-chip labels and a double century of production credits on the likes of Balkan Connection, Soundteller Records and Stellar Fountain. Mentored by Andrea Cassino, it is not difficult to hear the skill and craftsmanship that has gone into the Argentinean’s reworking of “Asante”. Through a combination of intelligent use of the component sounds found in the original plus impressive new production material, the Gaston Ponte remix glistens with a new melodic narrative with its roots firmly in Cassino & Lio Q’s track. A pulsating and rasping bassline add to the dynamic interpretation in the second half to create a club-friendly offering that is certain to have global appeal.

Two new original tracks from Andrea Cassino & Lio Q plus remixes from Sebastian Sellares and Gaston Ponte has given global appeal and a warm welcome to “Asante”.

Darksidevinyl & Ucha - Zaiana EP [TOR013]
Release Date - 04.20.2021
Stream & Buy - xyzlabel.lnk.to/Zaiana

Percussion has always played a vital role in establishing the label’s foundation of sound - nothing gets us grooving quite like drum-laden house music. TOR’s latest project, the Zaiana EP, showcases the exploits of this primordial desire. Darksidevinyl and Ucha come together to make their debut with the When We Dip label family. The two have established a sterling reputation for powerful afro-house, releasing on the likes of Connected Frontline, Deepalma, and Monaberry. 

Zaiana leads the way with an irresistible groove setting the foundation. Deep drums and a massively warm bassline kick things right into gear. Piano chords bring house influences into the fold, as an afro vocal quickly hooks the ear. Jazzy tones come to play as we enter the heart of the track, providing classic musicality during the bridge, all before diving right back into the vivacious rhythms. Sitting perfectly at the intersection of afro, jazz, funk, and house, Zaiana is sure to provide dancefloor exhalation.

Release Promo Review

Tash's Movement Recordings opens the month of May by welcoming Carsten Halm to the label for his debut EP. Based in Cologne, the German artist has been a DJ for well over a decade, playing some of his country's trendiest clubs along with his self organized events. As a producer Carsten has made considerable strides since first appearing in 2016. Solee's Parquet Recordings has been a comfortable home for the Cologne resident, with three releases landing in 2020 that earned play and support from Animal Trainer, Artbat, Eelke Kleijn, Format-B and Solomun. Now following 2021 offerings via Clubsonica Records, Monkey League, Traum and UV, Carsten makes his Movement Recordings debut with 'My Heart', alongside a remix from Jerome Isma-Ae.

Destined to be a highlight in Carsten's discography, it is the poignant stylings of the title selection which get the release underway. Rhythmically charged from the outset, its smooth cadence, striking stabs and buoyant groove set the piece on a course for aural enlightenment. Emotive chord changes and haunting vocal phrases make for a thrilling first act, carrying momentum and mood into the main break. Glowing swells and soulful phrasing delight across the centrepiece, further enhancing the genuine mood, as a timely drum roll and rising sonics unite for a tasteful crescendo and balmy finale.

Making his second appearance on the label and providing the lone interpretation of 'My Heart' is Jerome Isma-Ae. The German artist has been one of the most unique, sought after and best-selling electronic music producers of the last decade. Combining influences of progressive house and techno with distinguished drum patterns, shapely basslines and a keen dancefloor sensibility have led Jerome to projects via Anjunabeats, Songspire and his own JEE Productions imprint. Having made his Movement Recordings debut in 2018 with a well received remix of 'Delta' by Ziger and Blusoul, Jerome now makes a welcome return to the label with a thunderous rendition of 'My Heart'. Adding more of a progressive state of mind, the German artist carves out a dynamic groove adorned with firing percussive, charming vocal fragments and fresh rhythmic themes. Emotive chord changes and poignant pads emerge as the second movement evolves, bringing goosebump worthy moments to its dance floor inspired framework, and ultimately propelling the track to a thrilling finale.

Sam Scheme - Info-Gypsies (Original Mix) [ABORIGINAL]

Wind – The Gentle, pervasive, persistent, penetrating

Eyes sunken deep, storm sets in
Fighting the fight, running against the wind
Casting ‘Why’ off into the gusts, she whispers to me
Breathe with me, so I can just be
And when the storm resides, she cries
You don’t have to pretend, for this I’m willing to die
Be peace with me and endure
And the last note you play will never leave this world

A track that's all about rise and fall. About sounds developing their true potential as they're taking by the wind.

Special thanks to you, Brendan, for gifting inspiration and poetry.
And to Giulia for designing this beautiful artwork.
<3

David Lindberg Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/davidlindberg

"The existence, the physical universe is basically playful. There is no necessity for it whatsoever. It isn’t going anywhere. That is to say, it doesn’t have some destination that it ought to arrive at. 

But it is best understood by analogy with music, because music, as an art form is essentially playful. We say, “You play the piano.” You don’t work the piano.

Why? Music differs from, say, travel. When you travel, you are trying to get somewhere. In music, though, one doesn’t make the end of the composition the point of the composition. If that were so, the best conductors would be those who played fastest. And there would be composers who only wrote finales. People would go to a concert just to hear one crackling chord… because that’s the end!

Same way with dancing. You don’t aim at a particular spot in the room because that’s where you will arrive. The whole point of the dancing is the dance.

But we don’t see that as something brought by our education into our conduct. We have a system of schooling which gives a completely different impression. It’s all graded and what we do is put the child into the corridor of this grade system with a kind of, “Come on kitty, kitty.” And you go to kindergarten and that’s a great thing because when you finish that you get into first grade. Then, “Come on” first grade leads to second grade and so on. And then you get out of grade school and you got high school. It’s revving up, the thing is coming, then you’re going to go to college… Then you’ve got graduate school, and when you’re through with graduate school you go out to join the world.

Then you get into some racket where you’re selling insurance. And they’ve got that quota to make, and you’re gonna make that. And all the time that thing is coming – It’s coming, it’s coming, that great thing. The success you’re working for.

Then you wake up one day about 40 years old and you say, “My God, I’ve arrived. I’m there.” And you don’t feel very different from what you’ve always felt.

Look at the people who live to retire; to put those savings away. And then when they’re 65 they don’t have any energy left. They’re more or less impotent. And they go and rot in some, old peoples, senior citizens community. Because we simply cheated ourselves the whole way down the line.

Because we thought of life by analogy with a journey, with a pilgrimage, which had a serious purpose at that end, and the thing was to get to that thing at that end. Success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you’re dead.

But we missed the point the whole way along.

It was a musical thing, and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played."

B. Caly Jandro - Rokia (The Drunken Apaches Remix)

For our next release, we are super excited to showcase and welcome Caly Jandro to the Beat&Path family.

Caly, a young upcoming Melbourne based Producer/DJ and founder of the Boogie Beats Collective has brought us something special for his debut. A disco-esque cut, with organic drums and layered jungle sounds featuring a beautiful North African style vocal which really brings the track to life. Caly adds that “once the bulk of the track was done, my friend Steve (Highway Beauty) laid down some keys and made the track wholesome”.

On the flip side label members,  The Drunken Apaches (one half Out of Sorts & Cyril Orson our designer) take you on a hypnotic rendition. A subtle 303 riff under the mix, with haunting strings, clanking chords and pitched down vocal samples pull this edit together.

DJs are a nomadic people. Drifting between venues, airports and hotel rooms, they're always on the hunt for new music and clubbing activity. They are, indeed, the Bohemians of the 21st Century. Or as Britta Arnold, unders and Noraj Cue would call them: Happy Campers. 

The sophomore release for their brand new imprint Happy Camper Records comes from Bar25 legend, KaterBlau resident and Berlin mainstay Jake The Rapper. The American-born singer/dj/producer has been in Germany long enough now to understand the art of making an Ohrwurm. 'Time To Waste' is one of those tunes that keeps resonating inside your head long after you've heard it. With its thumping beat, catchy vocals and roaring synthline, it's bound to set any dancefloor ablaze. 

Although many believe 'Time To Waste' is a love song, Jake actually wrote it for his friends: "I was at Kater one morning, getting tired of the cyclicality of raving, thinking I really ought to go home and kiss my wife, take care of my kids, get some sleep, get my life together and get some music done. Some friends wanted me to stay and keep dancing. I was like: 'If I had any time to waste, I'd waste it with you. But I don't so… Bye!'" 

As is custom in the Happy Camper family, a string of befriended producers have given their own interpretations to the original. In dOP's remix, a mesmerizing synth that sounds a lot like a harmonica almost gives it a chanson feel, were it not for its relentless bassline and acid bleeps. Skilfully fucking up the vocals beyond recognition, Iories takes a more slow-burning and epic approach with his Dystopian Sundown mix. And Signal Flow & Pattern Drama aim for that end of the night magic with an epic stomper of a remix. Dancefloor detonation guaranteed.

Stay put for more Happy Camper news in the near future.
