Rose Ringed - In Search for Truth EP

Rose Ringed returns with the joyous, high energy 3-track ‘In Search for Truth’ EP

Previous support from Âme, Jennifer Cardini, Hammer, Zombies In Miami; DJ Mag Spain; Beatport; Spotify’s Melodic Souls, Deep Tech House, Anjunadeep Progressive House; Apple’s Adidas Runners Playlist, Anjunadeep Trance & Prog. House

Rose Ringed returns with an anthemic EP on his imprint Closed Eyes Recordings. The Amsterdam DJ/producer creates upbeat, fast, compulsively danceable tracks, which yet explore huge questions of belief, truth, and personal faith. The three tracks of ‘In Search for Truth’ had their genesis in chord progressions, and travel from those to huge synth lead sounds and high energy rhythms. No wonder his music industry support and his streaming figures are equally stratospheric. 

God’s Power launches into speedy staccato synths and hi-hats like a divine Morse code for euphoric dance, until the pure, male-strong choir creates a gothic breakdown, with Carl Jung pronouncing on faith – ‘I don’t need to believe; I know’. Choir and cathedral-powered organ join the dance to the end of a thrilling ride. ‘We don’t know what the truth is but we know there is truth out there.’ 

In Your Eyes is ‘about the endlessly beautiful role our eyes have in forming some sort of truth in our brains, creating our beliefs.’ It’s also about a no-holds-barred 132bpm beat, trancey woozy synths, and a sweeter, higher choir creating a joyous melange, now full-on rave, now thoughtful as Rose Ringed uses the breakdowns with signature skill.

Giving has an even faster feel, building both euphoria and tension as the frantic synth tries to break through all limits, jittering through the breakdown behind a melody (musos, take note) in the Phrygian aka ‘Spanish’ scale before letting rip to the end, evoking ‘an emotion of something hopeful and beautiful yet dark and unresolved. In a personal situation, I experienced the joy of giving, it’s beautiful how it makes you happier than the self-centredness the world focuses on.’

PRESS RELEASE:
Rose Ringed strikes new notes with ‘For Us’ EP – out November 3rd 

Previous support from Solomun, Joris Voorn, Blond:ish, Âme, Jennifer Cardini, Hammer; Beatport; DJ Mag Spain; Spotify’s Melodic Souls, Deep Tech House, Anjunadeep Progressive House; Apple’s Adidas Runners Playlist, Anjunadeep Trance & Prog. House


Amsterdam DJ/multi-instrumentalist Rose Ringed returns with three tracker ‘For Us’ EP. 

The Dutch producer enlists both analogue and digital sounds, multiple synths and choral vocal notes, and diverse genres – melodic techno, house, euphoria, synthpop – in his quest to bring joy to blissed-out clubbers and listeners. Recent releases have explored major questions of spirituality and truth. ‘For Us’ tells a more romantic love story, still high energy and uplifting, but with a darker edge.  

‘I gravitate between an external perspective of concepts that fascinate me, and an internal perspective mostly about deep inner emotions,’ says Rose Ringed. Here, he plays creatively with breakdowns too: long solo, or a sudden silence, or a breakdown building into another… 

Fight For Love; dreamy synth chords behind fast, bounding bass and drums, build to the sustained breakdown with its choral notes and chiming arps like falling snow, the breathy, resonant melody entrances as the organ adds gravitas auguring the drop, before all elements unite in a high energy finale. ‘The most personal track I’ve ever put out,’ says Ringed. ‘This and ‘WLYG’ reflect times I had to fight for very significant loved ones.’

Nights Without; powerfully fast but darker, more urgent sound patterns, growling bassline, a plangent melody, and after the breakdown, bags of bass, jittery percussion, a sudden breathing space of silence, before the wild ride to the finish. ‘I wanted this track to be “cold” in the beat and very “warm” on the breaks. Like the beat parts are the nights without “her” and the breaks are “with her”.’

Won’t Let You Go features a strong, fast, staccato synth melody constantly hooking the listener yet varying, over a deep, deep humming bass, with a sort of double breakdown. Simultaneously danceable and listenable. ‘When I first played this, at De Zon festival, I was so amazed by the reaction. The breakdown features field recordings I made on the beach in Kenya with my dad.’

Rose Ringed ‘For Us’ is out November 3rd on Closed Eyes Recordings,

The third Realm Of Consciousness compilation on Tale Of Us’ Afterlife Recordings is the label’s most complete statement so far.

The four-vinyl opus opens with Tale Of Us’ now anthemic ‘Nova’, a high-impact and well-loved staple of their sets this year. Agents Of Time continue with the percussive rattle of ‘Paradigm’, before the first released collaboration between luminaries Recondite and Henrik Schwarz shines with understated melody.

Amongst Mind Against’s eerie masterpiece ‘Portal’ and impressive first appearances on Afterlife from Scuba (as SCB) and Steve Rachmad (as Sterac) are ethereal contributions from Fideles, Ovend and Øostil. UK techno veteran Edit Select channels the darker, hypnotic spirit of Afterlife with ‘Phase In’, setting up the sprawling, 14-minute epic from Luigi Tozzi and Antonio Ruscito.

To begin the compilation’s fourth disc, Konstantin Sibold & Kosme’s ‘Cyclone’ lifts the tone, leading into a more introspective sound from Hunter/Game on ‘Changing Weather’. Upcoming German talent Kevin De Vries follows with his infectious cut ‘Mágoa’ and Tone Depth ends the odyssey in mesmerising style with ‘Ibn Sina’.

The full spectrum of Tale Of Us’ Afterlife label is on display here, as they continue to push the envelope with a high-quality and diverse selection of artists.

Kas:st release the anthemic ‘Hold Me To The Light’ on Afterlife with a Tale Of Us remix.

The French duo Kas:st are behind the highly-anticipated vocal track that has been creating special moments in recent sets. The original is arranged to journey through downtempo, piano and vocoder sections as well as a powerful peak. Tale Of Us’ remix extends its climax into a true dancefloor epic. The vocal breakdown, subtle progressions and monumental sound design is the perfect complement to Kas:st’s own masterpiece.

On the record’s B-side, ‘The Hymn Of Fallen Dreams’ switches the title-track’s lyrics for a more understated, ghostly lead line whilst retaining its extended form. Closing track ‘Be Yourself’ is the most direct of the four with a groove and deep pulse primed for the peak-hours.

After appearing for the first time on Odd Echoes 4, Moonwalk the Milan-based DJs and producers present us their debut EP on the label, a three original melodic and energetic cuts, with a fantastic and powerful remix by the Italian duo Undercatt.

The Neapolitan duo, Dario and Mauro, start the EP with the lead track ¨Solaris¨ a rolling and grooving cut, with a haunting and catchy melody that stays in your mind right away.

On the remix duties we have another Italian duo, Undercatt. They approach the rework with their characteristic elements and sound design, turning the version into a deeper and melodic cut.

To continue with the EP, we have ¨Enigma¨, which aims more to dance floor peak time, with elements of Indie Disco influenced percussions. On the same vibe to close the pack we have ¨Delta¨, where you can also recognize the duo’s signature sound.

With his own talent and high level support from the above industry names, such as Solomun, with ‘Never Stop’ recently on Diynamic and opening for Solomun on the Diynamic stage at the upcoming Sonar Festival in Barcelona.... Amsterdam DJ/ producer, label boss, drummer and jazz pianist, live artist from 2023, Rose Ringed is poised to be as big as his mighty streaming stats. His deeply felt mission is to ‘tell stories through sound’, using strong chord progressions, melody and harmonies. With a Marktkantine residency behind him and shows with the likes of Sven Vath, Joris Voorn, Mano, Mind Against, Eelke Klein and Ame, Booka Shade; with 19 releases on his own Closed Eyes imprint, Diynamic, and Voorn’s Spectrum this coming year, he’s also working on his first album for 2024, dedicated to his emotionally enlightened jazz ballerina mom, tragically lost to him in childhood.

Rose now creates upbeat, emotionally sweeping, compulsively danceable productions with big emotive breakdowns, having learned the cathartic power of music as a bereaved 11 year-old listening to his dad’s trance CDs, and feeling driven to share that power. His first EP 'Spring Memories’ became an instant success in 2018, when Kölsch played his 'In Your Arms Again' on BBC Radio 1. In 2020, Rose took the deep dive to follow his passion as a musician and DJ/producer. From the certainties of business he formed his Closed Eyes label, and started racking up his Spotify stats.
 His first all-nighter is soon to launch at Club Atelier, the venue of the former Marktkantine, his first residency. He’s now often at Het Sieraad, and has played with Sven Vath, Joris Voorn, Mano, Mind Against, Eelke Klein, Booka Shade, Ame, and this coming year, Solumun at Sonar Barcelona for Diynamic, with Yotto at Shelter, and what’s more, will be hosting his own stage at De Zon Festival Amsterdam.

Apart from the success of EPs on Closed Eyes label, like Broken Belief, and In Search for Truth, his Nov 2022 Diynamic debut had support from Michael Bibi, Joris Voorn, Tiesto and even David Guetta as well as Solomun.

His current DJ influences include Gerd Janson, Bicep, Kolsch, Job Jobse, Fort Romeau, Joris Voorn, Palms Traxx, Solomun, Paul Kalkbrenner, Todd Terje, Moby and Rufus. Early on, both his parents were music enthusiasts, but a huge influence on Rose’s music and life is his loss in early childhood of his mother, an accomplished jazz ballerina and an enlightened soul. The grieving 11 year-old instinctively turned to emotional such as Enya, Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, and later, the euphoria and solace of electronic music, especially trance’s ‘high energy and emotive soundscapes’ from Rose’s dad who bought dance CDs from Ibiza beach vendors, with Armin van Buuren’s State of Trance and Tiesto as major influences. As a child, Rose learned drumming, later he took up jazz piano too, to expand his musical knowledge and ability to improvise. Rose still seeks to honour his mom’s legacy by sharing his own music’s drive and optimism with others and composing his forthcoming debut album in her memory.

Why we exist 
Closed Eyes Recordings delivers stories through sound. With these stories, we want to create an impactful experience for our listeners. We believe meaningful stories help you guide you through the highs and lows in life. Stories like this are the most valuable for us in a piece of music. It’s this music that makes you close your eyes and experience the most beautiful thing in life: being.

What we aim for
Closed Eyes Recordings releases only those records resonate with your deeper feelings. We aim to release an artist’s most personal work; music that has a deeply special meaning for them. This could be a passed away loved one, an exciting memory of their youth or any other meaningful feeling or thought they get when listening to their work.

In our vision, the only valuable criticism stems from the feeling a record evokes among its listeners. Those who try to single-handedly evaluate music by rationally overanalysing it, miss the purpose of music itself: extricate emotions.

What we look for
The sound should never be perfect because life isn’t perfect itself. 
We love raw, vintage and imperfect sounds, and yes we are suckers for the melody. Unexpectedness is key within our sound and we prefer simplicity over complexity. Music is a feeling, not an equation.
