Black Diamonds Records brings the Austrian/Japanese producer Ken Hayakawa to the label with his groove-oriented Melodic House Digital Illusion EP. Ken Hayakawa digs deep during this time of corona and delivers these outstanding multi-dimensional tracks with atmospheric synth lines, groovy beats, innovative sound design, and a lovely aesthetic touch. Look forward to hear more Ken Hayakawa releases coming in 2021 on Black Diamonds Records.

The title track, Digital Illusion, is a statement on the illusions of reality woven by the media in the digital age. This is a serious and timeless track that finds a deep groove and carries the listener on a chimerical journey.

The b-side of this EP is the anthemic Mice on Mars which makes great use of the Korg MS-20 to create a whimsical, synth-heavy track with a solid groove.

Notably, Ken Hayakawa also appeared on the recent compilation from Schönbrunner Perlen, along with the likes of DJ Hell, youANDme, Petar Dundov, and Marco Resmann.

Black Diamonds Records is excited to announce the Black Diamonds EP, a serial EP by Berlin-based New Yorker Demetrius. With this debut release on Black Diamonds Records, Demetrius presents a soulful take on electronica. Fusing indie dance grooves with introspective pop, the upcoming releases are part of a serial EP that explores Demetrius’s life directly after his move to the techno capital. With a new track out every X weeks, the culminating EP captures both the highs and lows of Demetrius’s journey and distills them into a melancholic message of endurance and hope.

This is the first release for Black Diamonds Records, a new Berlin-based imprint from acclaimed house music veteran Joyce Muniz and guitarist Joshua Tennent. Catering for carefully-crafted electronica and indie dance, the label hopes to share a different side of electronic music by releasing artists who cross genre lines to create a radio-friendly take on underground music.

“Black Diamonds“:
With its ethereal, atmospheric layers combined with driving indie disco grooves and Demetrius’s soulful, haunting vocals, “Black Diamonds” is the perfect introduction to Demetrius. What happens when society shuns the life we lead?  The catchy chorus reminds us that we are still as unique, rare and beautiful as a diamond, but a black diamond. The song was written by Demetrius with production by Joyce Muniz.

Sacrifice:
On “Sacrifice” Demetrius croons about life after lost love. Stunningly soulful and moody with hints of early 90s urban pop, a classic 808 beat bounces through smoky pads as Demetrius’s vocals pull us out of the depths of heartbreak and back to the dancefloor.

Premiered via LOCK MAG: http://www.lockmag.co.uk/ep-premiere-tonimash

Black Diamonds Records is excited to announce, “I Want It”, the debut EP from @toniandmash. The EP is the Berlin-based, German/UK duo’s unique take on 80’s synth pop and Alternative R&B. With their idiosyncratic twist of reverbed vocals, harmonic hooks, and danceable beats, TONI&MASH have arrived with their quirky, riot girl attitude. The duo explore a range of thematic material in the songs, bringing a fresh perspective on female empowerment and flipping gender stereotypes.
Their track “Lone Wolf” already had an introduction from a well-received remix from Black Diamonds label boss and acclaimed house music veteran, Joyce Muniz.

“I Want It”
Aggressive synth pop with a riot girl attitude. The punchy lyrics about female empowerment, rhythmic bassline and distorted electric guitar elements give this song its escalating, dramatic arc.

From TONI&MASH:
“It is one of the first songs we wrote together and it is still one of our favourites. It was written in a time of great frustration and anguish and it was quite therapeutic to put all this emotion in a banging song.”

2019 was a big year for Demetrius with the successful release of his debut “Black Diamonds” EP, several new singles and a remix by Joyce Muniz. Now comes another brilliant remix of the title track, “Black Diamonds”, from Berlin-based producer, Tony Casanova. It is a dark take on the original with Demetrius’ melancholic vocals rising over the driving house beat and melodic synth lines tying everything together.

About Tony Casanova: 
It’s probably trippy disco. Or is it just the socialization of which the artistic work of Tony Casanova derives from? Or might it be the clue, that the world is just flat after all? Identifying genres is so 70s, 80s, 90s. Let's rather call it a profound sentiment which Tony creates in his DJ and live sets. He thereby skillfully opens gates to supernatural sceneries and invites everyone to follow him on this journey. Based in the “Station Endlos Crew”, the Berlin artist personalizes his very own way of music life. 

About Demetrius: 
Originally from New York, Demetrius’s repertoire serves up a soulful, retro take on electronica that perfectly marries his past and present. Reflecting the electronic mecca of his current hometown Berlin, as well as his Trinidadian roots with occasional subtle Caribbean inflexions, his material ranges from melancholic, introspective electronic pop to dramatic synth-driven house through to mystical, progressive house-meets-techno sounds. He has performed in everything from bands to operas, choirs and musicals as well as ghostwriting for others. He has also sung backup vocals for both Elton John and Alicia Keys, and performed and released for years as lead singer of electronic/alternative band Suntalk — recording at the legendary Electric Ladyland Studios in the process.

The “Black Diamonds” EP from Demetrius has inspired several remixes since its release in July 2019, including Joyce Muniz, Tony Casanova and others. And now, Meriton takes everything to another level with his lyrical remix of “Speed of Life”. Meriton actually has a history of remixing Demetrius. Back in 2018, Meriton turned heads with a brilliant remix of “Toxic People” by Joyce Muniz, which featured Demetrius on vocals.
In this treatment of “Speed of Life”, Meriton perfectly captured the inspiration of the original to transcend ones self, let go and enjoy the journey of life. This melodic house groove has a slow build, allowing the soulful Demetrius vocal to carry the track, gradually adding more and more elements until it takes off from the drop.

Black Diamonds Records ventures to São Paulo to find the illustrious L_cio with his track, Monolance, featuring singer Ellie Ka. Monolance is the meeting of L_cio and Ellie Ka which resulted in a beautiful song to bring out feelings of brightness and love. It’s the perfect music to remind us of those bright, hopeful days and relax into the chill summer beach vibes.
Black Diamonds label boss, Joyce Muniz, adds a stellar melodic house remix to the EP with a heavier bassline and trippy, filtered synths. The Ellie Ka vocals set a mysterious mood and Joyce delivers a remix radiating late night club vibes.
“Monolance”
This song was made in mid-2015 and has since always been part of L_cio's live sets. L_cio decided to redesign and release the track as a single with vocals from Ellie Ka. The time has come for it to be shared with the rest of the world.

My Little Friend feat. Yuki Coda - In Your Shadow

'Black Diamonds Records is excited to announce the "Beyond Now" EP from the Berlin-based synth-pop band, Lucie & the Robot. The title track is classic synth-pop, reminiscent of early Chromatics or Ladytron, but with their own distinct sound of Lucie's sweet, confessional vocals, idiosyncratic synth hooks, and danceable beat.

Acclaimed house music veteran, Joyce Muniz, adds a driving melodic house remix to the EP with an upbeat treatment which perfectly contrasts Lucie's dreamy vocals with trippy synth lines and edgy beats. As always, Joyce delivers another irresistible track that will call you to the dancefloor.'
