'Techno veteran Petar Dundov makes his debut on Hicky & Kalo's label Plaisirs Sonores Records with his new track 'Neopar', a beautiful deep progressive track filled with atmospheric bells and cosmic pads.

On remix duty, also making his debut on the label, is the renowned Cid Inc. The respected Finnish producer utilizes the melodic touch of the bells from the original track and raises the tempo, creating a peak-time progressive cut.

To close out the package, the label bosses themselves lift the energy on their remix with a blend of dynamic drums and a bouncy bass-line.

Hicky & Kalo say: 'It's such an honor to welcome Petar & Cid Inc on our label. They are two of our biggest inspirations since the beginning of our careers. So it's a privilege to have been able to work with them. We hope you will enjoy this great release and you can be sure it's not the last time we will work with them.'

Born in Zagreb in the early '70s, Petar Dundov's career in dance music stretches back the best part of 20 years, but it's only in the new millennium that he's been using his own name for his productions. Over the years he's graced many of the world's most prestigious and best-loved techno institutions - including mega-festivals I Love Techno, EXIT, Awakenings and Wire, and cutting-edge clubs like Berghain, Matter (RIP), Womb, Air, Fuse and Space. He counts a long list of heavy labels on his back catalogue like Cocoon, Systematic, SCI+TEC, Music Man, MOOD and Last Night On Earth, to name just a few.

Petar Dundov makes intelligent electronic music that breaks boundaries, moves feet and twists minds. He is without a doubt one of the most inspiring, original and daring producers in electronica, and with the likes of Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier, Dubfire, Nicole Moudaber, Adam Beyer, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, and Danny Tenaglia amongst his fans, it would be hard to disagree.'

Clubsonica Records opens the fall season by welcoming Bemannte & Bruder back to the label for a new EP. Hailing from Ireland, the Bemannte & Bruder duo first emerged in 2021 with a series of releases via longstanding UK imprint Stripped Recordings. Armed with a timeless progressive sound, Bemannte & Bruder were immediately tipped as a name to watch. Clubsonica has also become a comfortable home for the duo, with an EP and remix project released across the last twelve months. Now, following last years well received ‘Amongst the Stars' EP, Bemannte & Bruder make a welcome return to Clubsonica with ‘Summer Nights', alongside remixes from Antrim and Gux Jimenez. 

Noted for their timeless style, it is the title selection which leads the release off and only furthers that narrative. Tight kick drums and neatly manicured percussion provide a DJ friendly intro, as rippling bass tones and airy pads add depth and character. Cruising effortlessly across the first act, it's a panoramic arp which eventually steals the air, flowing through tasteful modulation while pushing energy into the main break. The duo's elusive vision shines across the interlude, as they maintain a perfect balance of emotive musicality with a tasteful sense of space, a contrast which an astute dancefloor will appreciate, before smoothly shifting gears into a kaleidoscopic finale. Selection two 'Mindbender' finds Bemannte & Bruder showcasing a more adventurous side of their repertoire. Once again created with pristine production quality, it's a free-flowing exchange of punchy grooves, percolating arps and clustered synth mutations which provide a sturdy backbone. The main break proves to be the highlight however, elevating mood through further modulation and astral artifacts, all while maintaining an underlying sense of flow for a wonderfully warped conclusion. Rounding out the three originals are the alluring qualities of 'Bigger Than Us', a track where the duo aims squarely at a melodic dancefloor. Bemannte & Bruder craft an aesthetic that is hopeful, groovy and undeniably musical, one that balances a loud-soft dynamic perfectly. Following a driving first act, it's an amalgamation of billowed piano's and holographic synths which co-ax beautifully across the break, before reverent textures meet explosive beats and swing heavy basslines for a retro-radiant finale.

Returning to the label for the lone interpretation of ‘Summer Nights' is Antrim. In what has been a storied career, Antrim has been prolific across the first three quarters of 2024. The Hernan Cattaneo supported ‘La Fin Du Monde' and ‘Meeting Point' would get the year underway in style, a release which found the Cordoba resident returning to Clubsonica, where he carries a long creative partnership. Now, Antrim returns to Clubsonica with an emotive take on ‘Summer Nights'. The Cordoba resident shows a deft hand and a strong sense of personality, as warm kick drums and fluid rhythms become smudged by sweeping sonics and emerging melodies. A light and airy first act, one which sets up a break of rolling pianos and wistful sonics, to carry out what is sure to be a rejuvenating dancefloor experience.

The release concludes with Gux Jimenez with the lone interpretation of ‘Bigger Than Us'. Hailing from Colombia, Gux Jimenez has been a fixture of his country's electronic music movement for over a decade. Best known for his emotive take on the progressive genre, he has showcased his music via trendsetting landing spots such as Mango Alley,, UV and his own OzLand imprint, while earning support from world class DJs Above & Beyond and Armin Van Buuren. Now, Gux returns to Clubsonica with a creative rendition of ‘Bigger Than Us'. Opting for a techier and more stripped down take on the track, Gux further fragments the main motifs over a bed of tough beats, timely vocal samples and metallic melodies, for a less musically dominant, yet equally engaging version that's perfect for the more daring dancefloors out there.

Daveed's & Kazamayé - Maruma (Kazamayé )

In the clarity of intention, form and emptiness exchange their silent vows. Each pulse, each reflection, becomes a thread in the architecture of consciousness. Purpose flows like current through the circuits of being, guiding effortless movement. Within that luminous order, thought transforms into energy, and energy into vision, until what remains is the pure alignment between the invisible and the real.

Tracklist:
01. GuyRo - Pata Negra (Original Mix)
02. GuyRo - Cooling The Plasma (Robert Babicz Remix)

Release Info: 
GuyRo returns to Manual Music after last years' massive debut release 'Cooling The Plasma'.

'Pata Negra' is his latest and dare we say best production to date. Build around a mystique vocal sample and a nasty dark bassline melody, this production grabs you by the throat right from the moment is starts and it won't let you go!

On the flip side we welcome the legendary Robert Babicz on board. He's taken on the challenging task to remix the brilliant tune that 'Cooling The Plasma' already is, and we thought 'if someone can pull this off, it will be Robert'. He delivers a fresh sounding melodic rendition that will blow your socks right off!

Dark vs. light, what's your preference?
