Cucumber 🥒 2021

After releasing his highly-praised new album ‘Flowing Fades’ earlier this month, Manchester-based musician Saccades is now sharing a remix of ‘Heat’ courtesy of Theo Kottis. On the ‘Flowing Fades’ LP, Saccades (the solo project of The KVB’s Nicholas Wood) blends escapist psychedelic pop with blissed-out electronic sensibilities. ‘Heat’ was already perhaps the most forthright journey into the latter but on the new remix, out today, the Edinburgh-born, London-based DJ and producer Theo Kottis transforms the song into something even more euphoric and club-ready.

With releases with Skint Records and Permanent Vacation behind him, Theo Kottis has been supported by Annie Mac (‘Hottest Record In The World’), MixMag, Boiler Room, Red Bull and DJ Mag, and currently has a monthly show on RinseFM. Arriving following recent remixes of Disclosure, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark and Erasure, to name just a few, Kottis says of his latest: "I first heard of Nick whilst he was playing in his other band The KVB at Corsica Studios a few years ago in London - I was really impressed. His new Saccades project is a lot lighter and fits perfectly for those in need of some positivity in this current climate. I hope I did the original justice!”

Talking about ‘Heat’, Saccades said: “Influenced by a mixture of early house music and yacht rock, I wrote ‘Heat’ during the sweltering nights of last summer in the stuffy flat that I was living and working in at the time. It’s a song about missing playing live shows and touring, the buzz of the crowd and the connections that are made at gigs and on the road.” On the remix, he continues: “Heat was a track that was always leaning towards the dancefloor but Theo's remix throws it on there head first. Thinking back, the original working title for this track on my computer was 'Euphoria' and I think that sums up this remix perfectly for me. It's both hypnotic and exhilarating at the same time.”

Lyrics:
When you’re in the jaws
Of the synthetic and the hollow
The saturnining on the walls
Is best left alone

Always be on time
When the Penmanship Club meets
To get back to the wild
Must be like machine

We are happy to announce the debut EP Portuguese-Italian Vhyce.
After his track „Back To Where I Never Was“ on a well received Lost Tapes Vol. 4, he is no stranger to the AEON camp anymore. Known from his releases on Catz N’ Dogz „Pets Recordings“, the young producer delivers a stunning 4 track EP with the title „These Words“.
Vhyce has a very characteristic sound design, which makes his simple and almost minimalistic, but catchy tunes so special; Though always trying to add something new to his repertoire. Like on the title track „These Words“ it was one of the first few attempts for him to sing some vocals on his own instrumentals. „While not being good at singing, I think it really set you free to be able to express your ideas yourself without relying on someone else understanding of your vision,“ he claims.
The track is built around an arpeggiated bass line oscillating between two sequences thats progressively build tension without being too obvious. The lyrics „These words have no meaning“ fell mysterious and open to interpretation. 
 
On the remix duty there’s no one less but „Chicken Lips“ legend Andrew, better known as The Emperor Machine. He stripped back the original to a more funky & grooving rework.  “The plan was to create something that keeps the same emotion as the original mix but still feels different enough without changing direction too much & I think I managed to achieve that”, Andrew says. And yes, what a musical masterpiece he delivered!
„Strive for Ego“ is an attempt to fuse „Can“ & „Neu!“ Krautrock influences into a club track“, says Vicente. Constantly driving forward, with perfect temper and timing to rise tension and built up energy Track title refers to the lyrics... „I’m nobody“.
„Old You“ has a more traditional Italo Disco feel. The „happy“ sounding bass line is counterbalanced with rough and psychedelic analog leads, reminding of traveling through time and space in a 80‘s Sci-Fi movie. The vocoded lyrics shall „refer to an hate-love relationship with your old you....Maybe because it „holds you“, Vhyce describes.
