Prins Thomas Diskomiks — Hailu Mergia Remixes (ATFA007)

Fires Ft Josh Record

Super-Sonic Jazz was the first album to be released on El Saturn Records, the label run by Sun Ra and his business partner Alton Abraham. Set up in 1955, they released their first singles, including a doo-wop group The Cosmic Rays and the Arkestra's Saturn, at the beginning of 1956, and had recorded the whole of their first album by the end of the year, to be released in March 1957. El Saturn is now considered, along with Charles Mingus and Max Roach’s Debut label and Harry Partch’s Gate 5 label, "one of the very first and most active artist-owned record labels." Often pressed in editions of 75 — sometimes as few as 20 were made for specific concerts — the records would be manufactured using local black businesses, and often put together in Abraham's own home.

Red Axes is Niv Arzi and Dori Sadovnik, two young men who have always lived in Tel-Aviv and have been making music together since the noughties. Ballad of the Ice is their debut album. Their artistic travels have taken them from the rock scene to the dancefloors, and to creating an album. More than a summary, this LP is an invitation to discover a singular musical identity: a ballad of the ice, a song as light as love and cold as a tunnel, springy as a dance step and deep as nostalgia.

Originally, the two young men were part of the band Red Cotton. Their musical obsessions were very distinct and have never really left them since: post-punk, new-wave, synth-pop, gothic rock, italo-disco and all the other styles with double-barrelled names that flourished in the underground of the western world at the turn of the 70s and 80s. They were barely born then, and Israel was hardly a promised land for these musical trends. Nonetheless, today the people who love these styles, at the forefront of which Cosmo Vitelli, founder of the label I’m a Cliché who signed them, recognise Red Axes’ talent for creating tracks that are not only impeccably referenced but also terribly current, in their production and in their intentions.

In 2009, house and techno made a noisy entrance into their lives. They were DJs by then and Tel Aviv was all hedonism and crazy parties. Red Cotton was over and Red Axes began. In 2012, I’m a Cliché introduced them into a community of people who enjoyed what the musical press could refer to as ‘cold-rave’. Four EPs were released on the French label that discovered sharp acts such as Yuksek, Azari & III and Simian Mobile Disco. Add to these a bunch of edits that went spinning on everyone’s turntables, remixes and originals that attracted labels such as Kill the JD, Throne of Blood, Correspondant, Clouded Vision, Relish and others – these built Red Axes’ reputation as the makers of solid dancefloor tools. Meanwhile, being resident DJs of the Bootleg in Tel Aviv gave them the ability to play versatile, broaden their scope, improve their way of thinking the music. It also allowed them to rub shoulders with some of their favourite DJs, from Ivan Smagghe and Jennifer Cardini to the Cómeme crew. These established DJs quickly became major supporters.

But Red Axes didn’t get lost in a loop of never-ending clubbing. The extent of their research is evident on the album. Apart from beautiful vocals by Abrão, a member of various Brazilian punk bands of the 80s, Arzi and Sadovnik handled all the instruments and machines. The influence of the types of music they love – which aren’t limited to the ones we just referred to – is inevitably present, but translates in unexpected ways. There’s a lot of maturity in these songs, memories, hashed-out feelings. This music could emanate from much older men; it brings on a certain saudade. But it’s never heavy and doesn’t rely on dusty clichés: Red Axes are very current and love to have fun above all else. They tread on ice with a certain elegance, ice that mustn’t crack or melt.

After ‘Head Like Glass’, a pure cold-wave intro, Red Axes take us on a repetitive stroll of light percussion with ‘Kicks Out of You’. Then comes the rock track ‘Watkins’, followed by a brass dub ‘Only a Clown Can Catch an Axe’. The poignant ‘Papa Sooma’ feels like it’s coming out of an old cassette player, and ‘Road to the Hills’ is all intimate house feelings. ‘Neon’ will make you clap your hands on the stage of an urban western, while ‘Candy’ is a toe-tapping Mancunian devil. ‘Bela Lugosi’s Dead’, a Bauhaus cover, adds a layer of groove in the bat cave, and finally, ‘Dreams Like a Tale’ closes the album in a psychedelic mist.

Panama - Jungle (GXNXVS Remix)

On this one I tried something a bit slow and different from my usual stuff. When I started to look for a singer Alo came straight in my mind, so i sent her the instrumental and when she came back i was blown away by her "dreamy r'n'b" voice which fits the beat perfectly and creates a great slow and chill atmosphere for the track.

Hurricane (Feat. Alo Lee)

i call you names inside my head
but i tell you it’s okay
and when i meet you in that place we know 
i lose everything i should say 

give me a window seat i know the glass can keep me safe
you missed your window when you promised you would change 
give me a window seat and i’ll watch you as i drive away 
i want to see your face when you beg for me to stay
 
boy you got me paralysed from the waist up
got so much to say but it’s better to run 
coz all the words wouldn’t be enough
you always liked to speak for both of us

i carved your name beside my bed 
because i don’t like it when you are far
but how can you make this all about yourself 
when you’re so comfortable where you are  

gave you a window seat i knew the glass would keep you safe
i missed my window when i promised i would change 
gave you a window seat and i’ll watch you as you drive away 
tell me you’ll face me when i beg for you to stay

red wine on your lips
from the corner store
i got the $20 bottle

and i just wanna feel your
touch
baby, take control of me
i just wanna make you
blush
baby, take it slow with me

i just wanna feel your
touch
i'm tired of all this digital love
i just wanna feel your
touch
been dreamin' bout your physical love
i just wanna feel your

touch
and we could stay in tonight
let everybody else go out
we don't have to waste no time

i know it's been a few days
but i miss the way
you say my name

and i just wanna feel your
touch
baby, take control of me
i just wanna see you
blush
baby, take it slow with me

i just wanna feel your
touch
i'm tired of all this digital love
i just wanna feel your
touch
been dreamin' bout your physical love
i just wanna feel your

touch, on me
i just wanna feel your
touch
i just wanna feel your
touch, on me
