Cocoon Recordings (Record Label) Releases 1

"Musique Pour Enfiler Des Perles" is the third EP by Poison Gauchiste, aka Eric Labbé, following "Musique Pour Faire Différentes Choses" and "Musique Pour Monter En Haut". It is the result of a slow maturation process, shaped by summer idleness and long winter evenings over the past two years. The EP features five compositions that, as always, blend quirky influences with distinctly personal oddities.

Caution: several of these tracks contain rhythms that might inspire dancing — though it’s unclear whether listeners will actually follow through, given the spells of languor and melancholy that occasionally drift onto the dancefloor...

Laurent Garnier's COD3 QR presents a French federation of top techno with new tracks from Unspent, Manuel-M, Kmyle, Loloman and Humantronic for the next release this September.

For over a decade, Anthony Bertholon and Jérémy Garde have been leading numerous musical projects across Europe. Together, they form Unspent, a duo blending raw, cold and powerful techno with refined production, marked by subtle leads and remarkable sound precision. This bold direction earned them a place on COD3 QR; a milestone that affirms their artistic integrity and lasting relevance. They open the EP with the drum-led, hypnotic "Sea Theatre".

A discreet yet respected artist, Manuel-M has been working passionately behind his machines since 2008. True to his principles, he steers clear of passing trends, making music above all for himself. He maintains an old-school vision, marked by the pioneers of techno, while incorporating his style through contemporary sound design on renowned labels like Tronic, Brique Rouge and here on COD3 QR, with the bright and grooving "A Night in Charleroi".

Kmyle is synonymous with boundless audible exploration having etched a lasting mark in the realm of electronic music. He seamlessly blends magnetic techno, hypnotic rhythms and ethereal melodies, as displayed on "Drill". Other labels such as Soma, Mord and Skryptom have placed their unwavering trust in his musical prowess, and in 2020 he launched his own Kmyle Records.

Loloman is one of the leading French producers in the underground electronic music scene. He creates music without adhering to conventional rules, blending styles, synthesizing sounds and unveiling a unique and diverse musical world filled with strong emotions and a groove. Since 2019 he's released on prestigious labels like MB Elektroniks, Brique Rouge, Metrohm and (of course), COD3 QR. Here, he drops the story-telling "Rock Hit".

Humantronic is a long-standing figure in the international electronic underground. After co-founding the Neopren label and debuting with a #1 release on Juno, he spent several years in Berlin refining his distinctive, groove-driven techno. He later founded his own imprint, Manakacha and released on legendary labels such as Traum, KMS and Harthouse. Now back in southern France, he's been staying true to his passion for techno, with both consistency and integrity, that's evident on melodic closer, "Madspace".

Michael Mayer became obsessed with Erik Luebs, an American producer based in Osaka, after stumbling upon his independently released music on Bandcamp. Luebs’ talent for creating high-energy, minimalist acid techno with impeccable, futuristic sound design swiftly earned him a regular place in Mayer’s sets. It was only a matter of time before Luebs made his debut on Kompakt’s Speicher series with this highly versatile EP. ‘Riding the Blade’ opens the four-track EP, showcasing Luebs’ signature punchy psychedelia. ‘Scarlet Viscera’ features a sleek, minimal groove that is reminiscent of the genre’s heyday in the 2000s. ‘Transform Into Glass’ emanates blissful Detroit vibes, and the EP closes with a real bang: ‘Sucked Through Tube’ creates a frenzy on the dance floor without the need for a single kick drum. If you like your techno sexy and forward-thinking, there’s no way around the man from Osaka. Play it loud!

The steely, almost industrial sounding percussions in the intro to HARDT ANTOINE’s new single “Let Me Go” are truly amongst the most unusual and yet highly effective grooves we’ve heard this summer. With every added layer Antoine manages to stir up new emotions and intensifies the levels of deepness and soulfulness. “Let Me Go” ticks all the boxes to become one of the most recognizable and cherished tunes of the season and is already getting heavy support from all the usual suspects.

Geht's Noch?

Geht's Noch? (Dominik Eulberg Remix)

Oliver Koletzki - Mückenschwarm

Occasionally the stars align to create something truly special. Well, without beating around the bush, that’s what we’ve got for you here. Not only a classic Legowelt hymn that’s ripe for a revisit but three quality remixers (Tuff City Kids, Catz 'N Dogz and Younger Rebinds aka Benny Rodrigues) turning in scandalously good remixes for Cocoon Recordings. Yes, we’re spoiling you...but you’re worth it!

Disco Rout first surfaced in 2002. The electro revival that had ushered in the new millennium was in full swing and this was to prove a seminal tune, being voted track of the year by Groove magazine. As if to prove a point the bass line still grabs you the moment it drops, while the laser-guided melodies feel as relevant today as they ever did. Fusing the past with a neon future, Legowelt’s complex interwoven elements fit like a glove and the clarity of the mix makes everything seem effortless. Maybe that‘s why it’s such a fascinating track to revisit, having already been remixed over the years by the likes of Deetron, Johannes Heil and Freeform Five.

Anyway, this current crop of remixes are equally top notch starting with Tuff City Kids who do what they do best, serving up an organic, conga driven workout complete with percolating synthetic percussion, cut up vocals and silky smooth choral pads. Warping and flanging the original riffs into an infectious, state-of-the-art revamp, they stay true to the retro vibe with added emphasis on the vocal hook for a more pronounced breakdown that briefly trips out before regrouping and taking flight once more. 

Following hot on their heels is a screamer from Catz ’N Dogz who drop the tempo slightly, layering a metallic cowbell motif over a tough, robotic disco groove that adds extra swagger to the bass line. The original parts gradually spiral into view, cranking up the pressure till we hit a solid state of euphoria that in turn, disintegrates into freaky alien chatter. There’s no let up though, as squawking synths lock on to the rhythm and everything evolves into a full-on percussive outro.

So far, so fantastic. You would think there’s nowhere left to go after being blasted into outer space a couple of times already but we’re not done yet. Last but not least, Dutch master Benny Rodrigues aka ROD steps up under his Younger Rebinds alias with even more intensity than demonstrated on last year’s ‘Sound of Benny EP’ on Running Back. Picking apart the original with almost forensic attention to detail, he gives new life to each individual strand with an exhilarating mix that seems destined to leave its mark on dance floors around the globe throughout the summer and beyond. The second of his two remixes is included here, both having featured on a much sought after Cocoon Recordings limited edition white label. Remix two compliments the precision of the first with a more freestyle approach that’s in one hell of a rush to get going. The bass line rips through the mix, hihats scurry toward the cavernous, arpeggiated breakdown and we’re drenched in reverb as the synths dovetail dangerously, all the while paying homage to the hi-octane energy of the original. Rodriguez effortlessly toys with the crowd, frying the synapses and gorging on serotonin, as the mix motors relentlessly to its conclusion.

The Disco Rout remix EP is a shameless riot of sound that succeeds in doing something very special - by staying true to Legowelt’s vision, the artists involved not only demonstrate their notable skills as remixers but reaffirm the quality of a classic and timeless piece of music.

Cocoon Recordings has been founded in the year 2000 as a part of the Cocoon Music Event GmbH. Sven Väth has initiated Cocoon Recordings in order to complete the Cocoon platform as a supporting tool for young artists in Electronic Music. The label philosophy is as simple as demanding: helping young producers and DJs to release their music without depending on Major Label structures. The releases can mainly be assigned to the genres Techno and House.

Cocoon Recordings as a label and Sven Väth as an artist stand for the use of vinyl as sound carrier, also in the future. Admittedly, the Digital Division of Cocoon Recordings has also been set up in 2008 and the numbers of downloads are indeed enjoyable. However, the label's focus is on vinyl, now and in the future. In order to complete the range of services that Cocoon Recordings offers, the publishing company Cocoon Publishing was founded in 2010.
