COD3 QR label showcase on George FM on 14 Oct 2025. (Auckland, New Zealand)

COD3 QR is a broad-format record label run by French techno legend Laurent Garnier and UK techno wiz Oliver Way (from Detroit Grand Pubahs). It's quite unique in that it releases almost monthly EPs each with a handful of tracks spanning different styles from future jazz to techno to electro or bass.

This model is perfect for curious, adventurous music lovers and has unearthed some amazing emerging artists for me like French artist Voltaire, and given modern icons like Kmyle and Carlos Nilmmns an outlet for their wacky sonic creations. COD3 QR is one of the best labels for discovery of new sounds and artists and well worth checking their Bandcamp - especially for their limited vinyl releases.

Tracklist:
Carlos Nilmmns - Riviera
K 'Alexi Shelby - Flame (Laurent Garnier Edit)
ProOne79 - Lysergic
Manuel-M - A Night in Charleroi
Hilit Kolet feat Juliet Mendoza - Sunbed Tripper
Manuel-M - Take
Kmyle - Drill
Onur Ozman - Flash Back
Voltaire - Wave Function
DCLVIII OFC - Countdown
Voltaire - Detune
Monfort - La Musique

Jesse Rose - Love The Feeling High (Original Mix)

We got lucky with this release. With remix contests you know you'll end up with loads of bastard lemons to wade through, there's zero guarantee that ANY of them will be even remotely listenable, and all of the non-winning entrants will hate you. Our job wasn't easy. We looked for originality, excitement, and energy. We found it. Out of the 303 remixes we received of Zombie Nation's 'Level,' we were handed some fantastic tracks that we are proud to release. 

OUR WINNING ENTRY: 

BUTTTRIXXX
This young Australian delivered a killer, distorted, swag-filled mid-tempo bomb. We loved the original vibe: pitched down vocals made into witchy pads spread over banging lo-fi beats. This got everyone at Turbo HQ's head nodding in unanimous support.


TOO GOOD TO IGNORE (in no particular order):

READYBOY
Off-the-rails chunky beats capture the MPC loving funk of Zombie Nation without resorting to any obvious tricks. We can't hear much of the original here, but what matters more is that this is dope.

DORTMUND
He may or may not be German, but you can feel a cool, precise talent at work here. He chose elements from the original wisely and complimented them with a simple, strong lead. Not a peak time performer, but a good remix.

TWOB
Stripped down and tailored for club play. Not re-inventing the party wheel but we know it would work. 

GIULIANO RASCAN
Probably our runner-up, this is a MASSIVE EDM monster. We're talking Avicii-level, Ultra-festival setlist, heart hand pumping, ecstasy inducing, hiss blasting and ITALIAN. This much positive dance-floor energy can make us a bit uncomfortable, but in the end we couldn't deny Giuliano took it to the next LEVEL. BAAAAM.

Personality wise, he is a quiet achiever! Behind the decks he will and has mixed it with the best… Jeremy J has the reputation as the DJ’s DJ. A near perfect ear, a brand of house, tech, breaks, hip hop, disco, acid jazz and funk that defines great music and the seamless way of compiling tracks together creating the ultimate party vibe. His diversity to play amongst any DJ or act amongst these genres is second to none.

Residing in Cairns, Jeremy J burst onto the national scene through the mix ‘If It Aint Broken Don’t Fix It’ through AKA/Triple J and his own compilation release (House2Hard Vol 2), tours and role with GeneratioNext. 

Holding residencies with every major club and bar in Cairns and surrounding areas, playing or instigating festivals, supporting and bringing a plethora of acts to North Queensland and across the country, for a regional town his career has been in a class of its own. There are simply to many events played and acts he has supported to list!

Respected and revered for enriching the north’s club and music scene with his partnerships in Electric Avenue, GeneratioNext, Tastey and Deep North, he is not afraid to put the music first. Whether it be DJ’s, bands, electronica or hip hop, Jeremy J has always strived to give the regional area’s of North Queensland the entertainment and respect it deserves. 

Having been voted #1 in the North Queensland Elec:Tropica DJ award poll, industry achievement awards, events and having won first place in a national mix up competition via Triple J, Jeremy has earned his right place amongst the upper echelon. Hosting and guest appearances on numerous radio stations, managing international DJ tours, setting up his DJ school, label management, retail outlet and hub for DJ’s in Tastey… is there anything he hasn’t had his fingers in? Studio...

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.
