Carlos Barbero feat. Dom Fricot
'Closer to Closure'
Includes Yulia Niko remix
SEL 151
Release date April 1st, 2022

And lo, did the Seladorians once again traverse the planet, seeking only the very best in sumptuous sounds, music that would rock the dancefloors to their very core. And verily we did land in Panama, where we reconnected once more with Carlos Barbero. ‘Wake Up’, his warmly received Selador debut last year, had received more plaudits than Lord Plaudit of Plauditsville on National Plaudits Day.

“Please sir,” we said, trembling in anticipation, “can we have some more?” My friends, we think you know the answer, for it resides here with you right now, a floor filler of epic proportions direct from the Barbero bunker, featuring a goosebump-generating vocal and remixers of great repute. 

‘Closer to Closure’ is the title and all versions showcase the sublime vocal performance of Dom Fricot (he of Anjunadeep and Systematic Recordings fame). The original mix is a thing of beauty, marrying brooding subtlety with striking hooks. File under essential.

We are also overjoyed to have a Selador label debut courtesy of a remix from one of our favourite producers. Yulia Niko(for it is she) is a globetrotting maestro currently resident in Berlin. Her interpretation goes deeeeeep, but also showcases the haunting vocal to brilliant effect.

Double bubble, dancefloor trouble, cooked up for you by another Selador cross-continental dream team.

Team Selador - So close, we've even got cigars!

PS. Look out for another very special remix to follow courtesy of a long-time occupant of our Producer wishlist. All we can say is, it was... 
Worth. The. Wait!

The eclectic tastes of British producer and DJ, Aubrey Fry span through the electronic music spectrum. His releases have brought numerous releases and now he readies up the release of the stunning new single ‘The Loop’. 

Aubrey shares two versions of ‘The Loop’. The euphoric explorations of the original mix bring a beatless arrangement with a dazzling array of expressive synth work and stunning melodic writing. The ‘Extra-Vaganza AF’ mix takes things deeper, with a driving drum groove and darker sonic explorations for those magical late-night moments. 

Already garnering support and great feedback from Laurent Garnier, Dave Clarke, Sasha and John Digweed

The eclectic tastes of British producer and DJ, Aubrey Fry span through the electronic music spectrum and earlier this year he released a stunning single ‘The Loop’. Now, Alex Banks and Charlie May deliver powerful remixes of the track.

Hailing from Brighton, Alex Banks is a DJ & Producer who explores deeper sounds influenced by jungle, broken beat, dubstep and techno. He consistently pushes the envelope with an adept technical skill and sound design which commands repeated listens. His remix combines a driving beat and futuristic synth samples primed for the dancefloor. The second remix comes from Producer Charlie May, who creates a deeper, industrial soundscape and builds to two suspenseful breakdowns.

So, we've got our latest showcase primed and ready to go and face a dilemma. We have no less than eight (count 'em) new tracks to tell you about, a stunning sonic smorgasbord that summarises all Selador holds dear. But with our collective attention spans allegedly getting shorter, our poor befuddled minds crushed between vapid soundbites and oppressive 'long reads' – how do we do them all justice in a press release that hits that 'perfect length' sweet spot? And of course, while we yak on, your time could be better spent listening to the aforementioned sonic smorgasbord.

So, the challenge we have set ourselves is to get you as excited as we are about this titanic tuneage while limiting ourselves to a max ten words per track – and without using the words 'banger', 'anthem' or 'piledriver' (the boss noticed our over-use of that last one). So without any further ado…

Nick Stoynoff – '35'

Episodic, wide-screen tribal builder. 24 carat electronica outta Chicago.

Indiveed – 'Suspense'

Atmospheric, burbling, insistent, quirky, original. The sound of underground Ukraine.

Dor Danino – 'Mezoti'

Edgy, sultry techno vibes care of our man in Israel.

Jonathan Cowan – 'Alden's Groove'

Wonky. Timeless. Euphoric. A modern classic from a Florida OG.

Darksidevinyl – 'Plastic Dream'

Dark by name dark by nature. Peak time Egyptian throbber.

Smash TV – 'Slider'

Teutonic techno dons deliver mindbending melodica, genius riff, epic breakdown.

Folgar feat Paula Os – Playground

Deep, sexy electronica. 80s vibes through a 2022 Argentinean lens.

Matthias Winnfield – 'Flatliner'

Bubbling, acidic, heads down rave monster, full-on Turkish delight.

“Quantum Dots” is a dazzling retro synthwave odyssey where past and future collide in radiant sound. The journey begins with a catchy driving beat wrapped around the shimmering pulse of classic arpeggios from the legendary Roland Jupiter-8, glowing with analog warmth and nostalgia. Each note flickers like tiny bursts of light, evoking the pulsing rhythm of a neon-lit city at night.

As the track evolves, it ascends into a breathtaking climax—a multi-layered neon motion sequence sculpted by the mighty Yamaha Montage M8x. The arpeggios swirl, collide, and refract like particles of pure light, creating a kaleidoscopic soundscape that feels infinite, cinematic, and alive.

“Quantum Dots” is more than music—it’s an illuminated voyage through pixels, particles, and memories, where every beat is a spark and every synth line a stream of glowing energy.
