Paul Roux Releases

Pig&Dan on Break New Soil? Sounds like a no-brainer! We're pumped to have the boys on the label with their debut release „Aptitude"! Igor and Dan and labelowner Gregor have been friends for a long time, sharing stages all over the world for decades and have actually released a collaboration EP and a full album on Adam Beyer's Truesoul records earlier this year. On „Aptitude“ you'll find three full-on Techno jams, showcasing P&D's signature sound - combining their vast knowledge and admiration of classic Techno, yet looking firmly to the future with another modern sounding production. Welcome to BNS, boys!

Tracklist:
01. The Future Sound Of London - Papua New Guinea (Bart Skils Remix)

Release Info:
As one of Holland’s hottest electronic music exports, Bart’s pristinely produced brand of techno finds that rare between forward-thinking creativity and dancefloor sensibility. It’s this unique amalgamation which has led to standout releases via Break New Soil, Cocoon, Drumcode, Tronic and Rejected, while also leading him to remix top international talents Adam Beyer, Christian Smith, Joris Voorn, Kollektiv Turmstrasse and Nicole Moudaber. Also celebrated as a DJ, the Amsterdam resident often programs a bevy of exclusive music into his sets, perhaps none more famous than his much loved take on ‘Papua New Guinea’ by Future Sound of London. Released in 1991 by the iconic British duo and favoured by a broad selection of electronic music tastemakers, Bart took to reworking the track last year and it quickly became a highlight in his sets and those of his contemporaries, most notably Drumcode boss Adam Beyer. Now as 2021 winds to a close we’re happy to offer Bart’s much sought-after version as a free download. Enjoy!

Sven Väth - Mystic Voices / Butoh - COR12171

The second release before the upcoming mighty new Sven Väth album “Catharsis” gives you another hint at what ́s coming at you! Let us tell you, we couldn ́t be more excited for everyone to finally experience Sven ́s new masterpiece!
But before we unleash the beast, we decided to release a second single. This time containing two absolute highlight tracks. If you have heard Sven playing in the past months, you will recognize both, as they were pivotal moments in almost every set!
First up we have “Mystic Voices“, a track that was created during the early stages of the album production with Sven gathering ideas and words to finally record the unmistakable vocals during a hectic tour through India, and Gregor spending days and nights on the other side of the planet in his studio to process the stream of inspiration. When the two finally sat down together in the studio, the track emerged quickly. Some would call the instant vibe that magic that every creative mind is longing to find.
“Butoh” is a raw and dark force, influenced by Japanese dance, an art form that deeply touched Sven during his travels on Nippon Island. It ́s an otherworldly sounding track, still based in the Techno Realm but heavily twisted by a long break that introduces Japanese percussions that eventually get topped by the haunting vocals of Cana Hatsushiba.

Buy/Stream: https://apexfaction.lnk.to/HumanityEP

French producer Paul Roux writes music for stargazing. The cinematic style speaks to the human connection, rhythmic like a heartbeat, tickling the sensations with its raw, evocative energy. The Humanity EP follows up the producer’s debut album World as Memorial Home, projecting the artist yet further into a spiritual and ghostly sound, rooted in that classic Chicago aesthetic. It’s a sound that speaks to every one of us, and one that is forever human.

It was with the 2021 release No Doubt on the Dutch label ARTS, that really established Paul Roux as an artist with an ear for ethereal, dreamlike and experimental rhythm records; a sound he’s helped propagate though his labels Venom Recordings, Rapid Eye Movement, and his more recent project, Wide Division.

Following the recent, and highly praised release Emperia on Alan Fitzpatrick’s We Are The Brave imprint, the French producer was asked to return to the fold with the Humanity EP, released on Fitzpatrick’s electronica label, Apex Faction,

“What I appreciate about art and music is its strength, power, and ability to provide escapism and a moment to question ourselves,” Roux says about the record. “We live in a fast-paced world where overconsumption is rife. I wanted to create some time out, with the Humanity EP acting as a personal therapy for me; A self-assessment of nature and of things I find essential in life.” 

The record leads off with ‘Humanity’, a track drenched in melancholic strings, haunting soundscapes, and a gentle rhythmic flow, creating a deep yet powerful opus. ‘Adventure’ picks up the tempo, with a soulful house beat and balearic, sombre strings, like a crescendo of waves. Indeed, it was the outdoors that provided so much inspiration for the record. “The environment inspires me, so when I create music, I go on an adventure and try to share my feelings and vision,” Roux says about the production process. “When creating Humanity, I’m dreaming of a warm place… where the skies are blue, and the birds sing.” 

‘Forevermore’ starts off with a poignant 2002 monolog about global warming by Jacques Chirac. It’s sweeping, cinematic interludes, deep chords, and an ever-present resonance, lock its tender hooks into the listeners’ soul before ‘Blue Lines’ finishes the EP, making use of sensual pads and a shimmering, percussive beat to fathom a deep, sonic canvas that talks directly to the human condition.

Metal Master - Spectrum (Bart Skils & Weska Reinterpretation) - COR12172

Techno is all too often described as timeless but while most of it eventually evaporates into the ether, there are some riffs, melodies, and breakdowns that remain etched into our collective consciousness forever. Legendary Frankfurt label Harthouse is home to more than its fair share of such moments, but you have to go all the way back to 1992, the opening strains of the Metal Master classic ‘Spectrum’ to locate the source for this special single-sided remix release.
 
The common denominator and catalyst to all this is of course Sven Väth, co-creator of ‘Spectrum’ and founder of both Harthouse and Cocoon Recordings, while the independent variables in the equation are Bart Skils and Weska, who lend their considerable talent and vision to this sublime makeover.
 
Coming on like rolling thunder, sparks fly immediately as crackling vocoder licks, silky ride cymbals and soaring arpeggios build an atmosphere taut with anticipation before giving way to that iconic melody - a love letter from Frankfurt to Ibiza, wrought from metal, drenched in distortion yet pulling at the heartstrings - the perfect soundtrack to any chemical sunrise.
 
It‘s a powerful re-interpretation that pays the warmest respects to the original and, despite the relentless groove, there is still room for sentimentality - an invitation to momentarily pause for thought and reflect on the journey so far as the sumptuous breakdown washes over the dance-floor. But not for long, the simmering bass line soon emerges from the euphoria and the track kicks in again, driving us forward towards a new, uncharted spectrum of possibilities.

Back in 2021 with his EP 'No Doubt' on ARTS, Paul Roux has firmly established himself in the scene of melancholic and daring techno. In three years, this French artist based in Montpellier has managed to conquer the major labels of the electronic music industry, such as ARTS, R&S, RAW, and WATB, Alan Fitzpatrick's label. His ability to produce high-quality tracks has earned him unprecedented recognition and a series of vinyl releases. The versatility of his music transcends genres, attracting the attention of DJs with diverse styles,
ranging from techno masters like Joël Mull, Alan Fitzpatrick, Wehbba, to softer artists like John Digweed, Laurent Garnier, Tal Fussman.

Paul Roux's compositions transport listeners to a striking space universe, where enchanting melodies take them to dreamlike horizons. His creations could easily feature on the soundtrack of an unwritten dystopian film, as they evoke striking emotions and images. In fact, the music video for his track 'Bapteme', released on the legendary label R&S Records, has been repeatedly rewarded in international capitals, notably winning the gold medal for Best Music Video at the Sound & Vision festival in New York. The powerful beats and enchanting melodies imagined by Paul Roux are the essence of a dancefloor experience. Their captivation and ability to transport listeners make for an unforgettable musical journey. This has recently earned him his first tour in North America.
