Sundays are for... Vidall

We've been having a lot of fun with this casual series of edits, so why not keep pumpin' 'em out, right!?

June's comes from an old buddy and someone we've been itching to work with for a long time, Laurence Guy. He recently cooked up this steamy, slowmo edit that we think is the bees knees and just perfect for this time of year: like the seasons, it seems in transition, teetering on the edge of something hot and sweaty and bright. As such, we feel it'll do wonders as a lead or closing track​―or a mid-set mix-up. You tell us! Download the thing and try it out. If you want a WAV, just shoot an email over to nik@lphnyc.com and we'll hook you up!

"DJ, Producer and purveyor of all things sleazy. Laurence was raised by strippers in the dressing room of a Chicago lap dance club with only a stack of Prince records for company. Eventually, he fled to London to follow his destiny and become a DJ."

Laurence Guy, "Luv Magic" [FREE DOWNLOAD]

This is a special release no doubt. Deepchord, Deepnaut, Pulshar and Braulio Lam were specifically chosen to head up this treasured task of taking Linval's 'World Crisis' into their realms.

'World Crisis' is Linval's message and it is as definitive as ever. The overall traditional dub concept is to feature different voices over the same instrumental where this, flips the script and each version has a different electronic music producer add their talents to create their own signature account.

The Deepnaut version shimmers in a euphoric glow that covers you like a sun on the beach in summer. Linval's voice is front and center and one could say this may be the most single oriented as it uses the most vocals of any of the renditions here.

Braulio Lam's submission has all the makings of a classic styled dub track. While the beat is transcendent, everything else is processed in a new school way. And the technique is next level to be clear.

Next is Deepchord's version. To say this is the deepest and most techno might not be much of a surprise. The groove is addictive and the chords sampled into the rhythm while the melody ebbs and flows are pure magic.

Lastly, Pulshar breaks things down to the starkest of the choices and one of the most hypnotic. Pablo Bolivar and Sergio Sainz Vidal from Pulshar have a knack for injecting some dark and deep island vibes to the electronic scene.

The artwork respects the history of dub culture while advancing the application as it uses AI generated images combined with human elements.

“One year ago, the team formed by Vidall  and Dactilar unleashed a John Lee Hooker cover/bootleg upon the world called “Nobody Knows.” The idea of dance music with a message is not paid much heed on the scene today but this concept has been the driving force behind their debut EP.

The title track, “The Device,” is a sophisticated slow dub house track containing a Herbie Hancock interview where we hear him respond to the question, how would you explain what a piano is to an alien? The next track, “Indeed” is a refreshing, powerful vocal house track that will force you out of your seat, and the insightful voice of Marvin Gaye grabs you and never lets go, as he speaks about show business over funk beats that crescendo into sonic emotion in “Part Of Me.”

This debut also features remixes by artists/friends who share the same exigence for their life’s passion: music. It’s no easy feat to have two heavyweights like Martin Buttrich and Guti on the same wax, but AR pulled it off. The “maestro” Martin supplies with “Indeed Remix” a groovy dancefloor hit with elegant vibes, while Guti delivers two remixes of “The Device”–a profound trip reminiscent of the hypnotic african rhythms, and a delightfully ambient tune to perfectly close out one of the most exciting EPs of the year.”

ARTIST: Deepchord, Euphorion, Dublicator, Biodub
TITLE: Espectrum EP.2
LABEL: Avantroots
CAT Nº: AR048.2

We are really proud and honored to present ESPECTRUM, a year-long effort to put together a compilation of the best Dub Techno. The idea was simple, but ambitious: ask some of our favorite artists for one track to epitomize Dub Techno—the style of music we’ve loved and continued to develop since our birth as producers and a label. With a very precise idea of what we wanted to collect, the compilation was carefully built with hypnotic, obscure, dense, and magical sounds with an eternal hook.

These are the kind of tracks that will never lose their appeal, because they go above and beyond labels, styles, and trends, resisting the passage of time. After the first tracks starting coming in, the idea grew more and more special, and the concept even stronger. We knew we were onto something really big. And, finally, here it is.

Sundays are for... Pulshar

Artist: Pulshar, Biodub, Heavenchord, Julian Perez
Title: Espectrum 2, EP2
Label: Avantroots
Cat No: AR052.2
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist: 
A1. Pulshar - Accept Fate
A2. Biodub – Unterfluss
B1. Heavenchord – Spacechord
B2. Julian Perez - Wolframio

This is the second 12” EP that closes The Avantroots Dub Techno Compilation ESPECTRUM II

The first track from Pulshar since 2018, “Accept Fate”, is a dreamy ambient dub track with a heavy reggae dub influence that could work as the background sound for an eerie island.

Biodub’s “Unterfluss” is an ambient dub track that evolves progressively and drags you into a restless and magnetic atmosphere.

The dusty, uneasy and strangely sexy “Spacechord” from Heavenchord is an hypnotic ambient dub track inherited from dense atmospheres.

And to close this excellent compilation, none other than Julian Perez delivering an impeccable and elegant dub techno track to fill the dance floor with class.

Pulshar, Biodub, Heavenchord, Julian Perez - Espectrum 2, EP2 (AR052.2)

Accept Fate

Past+Future=Present 

A label that turns classic and futuristic spirit into contemporary electronic music, with a preference for spacey, hypnotic and deep sounds.

Run by Pulshar (Sergio S Vidal & Pablo Bolivar )
