Lisbon's Xinobi gears up to release his much-anticipated LP, 'Balsame', out via @discotexas on April 8.

On his latest single from the forthcoming record, Xinobi teams up with Turkish artist Alem-i Adastra adding weight and a truly otherworldly feel to 'Başa Bela', a standout track that provides the final indication of just how much of a definitive statement this exceptional record really is.

“I see it almost as something like a balm, to sweeten the daily scars and social struggle out there. Not in an introspective way, but through action, movement, and collective questioning. The constant search for solace, to appease our sorrows will only be possible to satisfy through action, through active and proactive questioning, on the street or at home, in the most collective way possible. It’s a cliche but: Unity is strength. And people have proved through time that together they are better, question things better, act better and collectively heal better.”

Brand new imprint @happycamperrecords (founded by Britta Arnold, unders and Noraj Cue) drops new single "Time To Waste" as their sophomore release (pre-order via this link: www.beatport.com/label/happy-camper-records/66562) courtesy of Bar25 legend, KaterBlau resident and Berlin mainstay @jake-basker. The American-born singer/dj/producer has been in Germany long enough now to understand the art of making an <em>"Ohrwurm"</em> (=earworm) - "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: 

<em>"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!'"</em>

As is the custom in the Happy Camper family, a string of befriended producers have provided their own interpretations to the original track. 

The stunning remix from acclaimed French outfit @dopofficial that we here at Discobelle can exclusively premiere settles for no less than a mesmerizing synth combined with acid bleeps and an absolutely relentless and stomping bassline.

Jake The Rapper - Time To Waste (dOP Remix) [Happy Camper Records]


Ripperton's 'Niwa' album has without doubt been one of the highlight releases of 2010, and continues to impress and surprise with each and every remix EP. Having already been treated to the wonderful revisions of 'Random Violence' (Joris Voorn) and 'Leonor's Lanugo' (Radio Slave), the Swiss 
producer continues to enthrall with his latest remix invitations... 

Being presented with the tools to create, does indeed give you a head start. However it is the vision, and skill to be able to realize it, that sets great producers apart. To say we have been presented with two outstanding revisions falls short of doing them justice, for French House legend I:Cube ('At Peace') and Berlin based producer Mark August ('The Sandbox'), have created two, quite outrageously brilliant masterpieces.

Diversions II [XYZ015] : Daniel Bortz, Facundo Mohrr, TÂCHES
Release Date : March 13th, 2020
Presale : https://www.beatport.com/release/diversions-ii/2867339

Reimagining art is a difficult task. Taking a fully original vision from a fellow artist and twisting it into your own work presents a set of innate challenges. How do you pay the necessary homage to the originator, while also appeasing your artistic intuition? This is a question confronted by producers when pursuing the unique nature of the music industry’s most flexible assets - the remix.

Our Diversions series explores the diverse processes and influences that manifest during the remix process. Each release presents fresh takes on the label’s original productions by both XYZ stalwarts and newcomers alike. This series is a chance to connect artists from across the musical spectrum in the pursuit of unique and unexpected tracks.

For the second release in the Diversions series, XYZ has collected an eclectic mix of producers dripping with quality. Daniel Bortz is a unique figure in the underground scene, gliding under the radar past trends and genre boundaries to a point where he is one of the most respected artists in the game. A stalwart on the esteemed Permanent Vacation, Bortz has also graces enigmatic labels such as Innervisions, Suol, and Watergate. Through collaborations with Acid Pauli and remixes of James Blake, Bortz remains impossible to categorize.

Alejandro Mosso’s Caravan caught the ear of Bortz, who’s laid a stiff rhythm and acid-vibe to percussive groover. Through keeping the original’s minimal-oriented kick, the Caravan remix is primed for dark rooms with crisp sound.
