Artist: Voltaire 
Title: [QR]D.080.VOL2.25 
Label: COD3 QR 
Cat No: QRD080VOL225 
Format: Digital 
Released: 21 March 2025 

Track Listing: 
1. Detune 
2. Enlight 
3. Unity 

After a number of acclaimed tracks and EPs, the southern newcomer on the French electronic scene, Voltaire will be releasing his debut album on Laurent Garnier's COD3 QR label this year.  As a first taster, the three-track EP "[QR]D.292.VOL1.24" was released in October 2024.  Following on, a second EP drops in March features two more cuts from the forthcoming album alongside a third track which is exclusive to this new EP. 

Voltaire is an artist who built his career through passion, after electronic music fell into his lap somewhat by chance.  Coming from a region far from the preferred circuits of the music world, he cultivated his predispositions in autarky.  Very quickly, the musician took advantage of his training in the audio-visual industry (where he worked as a sound recordist and mixer for cinema, advertising and haute couture) to raise the artistic and technical quality of his productions to a very high level.  Today Voltaire is a COD3 QR regular: he has remixed "Tales from the Real World" from Laurent Garnier's "33 Tours Et Puis S'en Vont" album, had several vinyl and digital releases and has been in the line-up of several events. 

Voltaire uses his perfectionist approach to music to create a richly emotional eclecticism, whether it's the story-telling techno of "Detune", the housier edge of EP exclusive, "Enlight" or the electro-fied closer, "Unity". 

"[QR]D.080.VOL2.25" is released digitally on 21 March and will be followed by his "Echoes" album this summer.

01- Voltaire - Detune - PREVIEW

Feines Tier veteran Johannes @klingebiel introduces @franz-matthews to the family and together they bring us “Ce Moment” EP, a basket of tunes full of colorful harmonies, bouncy grooves and poetic French lyrics. What more could one wish for?
The two producers and multi-instrumentalists met some years ago in their chosen
hometown Berlin and decided to fuse their producing and multi-instrumentalism game.
The first fruit of this labor was the much-loved and -played “Signs” on Heimlich records, now being followed by this EP here.
The title tune is an amalgamation of groovy electric bass riLs, spicy Prophet synth
sounds, melancholic vocals and certainly has something of that magic ingredient
people call the French Touch. A good tune to pick for House DJs who dig some Disco now and then and for Disco DJs in need of some solid House.
“La Traversée” is a crossing (multi-language pun intended) of bazillions of quirky synth sounds and melodies that somehow form a coherent whole, the sum of its part being a light and friendly but not cheesy house tune, that will make the sun go up on any dancefloor.
The mighty Kompakt overlord @michael-mayer-kompakt takes “Ce Moment” under his spell. The result is a grander and more mysterious aLair, made for bigger and darker dancefloors. The Sound of Cologne™ this is indeed!
Parisian up-and-comer @shimon-earthly adapts „La Traversée” into his sonic world. When Matthews and Shimon discussed the finished remix on the phone in French, all that le dilletant Johannes could understand from it were the words “très cool” and “after-hour vibe” , which… yes, completely tracks!

Title: [QR]D.115.TLN.25
Label: COD3 QR
Cat No: QRD115TLN25
Format: Digital
Released: 25 April 2025

Track Listing:
A1. Laurent Garnier – Back Where I Belong (Solaris Mix)
A2. Tal Fussman – Waiting
B1. Loloman - The Wall (Laurent Garnier ReWork)
B2. The Lost Souldancer - No More Voices

We hit the jackpot with lucky number seven… seven killer new tracks on [QR]D.115.TLN.25 by returning players Carlos Nilmmns, Jules Wells & DCLVIII OFC, Jay Robinson, Alex Mendes and Onur Ozman, alongside new participants ProOne79 and Trecci.

Carlos Nilmmns has become synonymous with an eclectic but often deep and sensual sound influenced by the traditions of Chicago and Detroit. In the past, he's released on some of the best-of-breed labels in the world including Circus Company, Cocoon, Ornaments, KMS, Planet E and Dopewax. Don't sleep on his Jazz-infused opener "Moon Dance".

Italian based producer Gioele Cantoni a.k.a. ProOne79 lives for dance music. Like Carlos he's influenced by the sounds of Chicago and Detroit and has been crafting high-powered and catchy Techno and House for labels including Nervous, Circus Recordings, Kneaded Pains, Flashmob Records, This Ain't Bristol, WRKTRX and many more. Now he delivers the seriously funky groove of "Lysergic" to the label.

influenced by the Motor City, Jules Wells has released on several respected Detroit-based labels like Electrofunk, Submerge, Twilight 76, KMS and Planet E, but also on the likes of Brique Rouge (France), Purebox (Japan) and Logos (Macedonia). Most notably his track "Song4Clara" on KMS, which inspired Laurent Garnier's "Enchanté". Meanwhile, Anthony Godin a.k.a. DCLVIII OFC has been a veteran of music production for over two decades, with more than 25 years of mixing experience. As The White Shadow he released on Suara, Still Von Talent, Kattermukke and Einmusika. His DCLVIII OFC moniker embodies a more Techno approach, with subtle progression and a melodic touch. Together they deliver the epic and atmospheric, "Heritage".

Trecci is a French DJ, electronic music producer and manager of both Naeba Records and Ontake Records. While a lot of his releases are on his own Naeba Records, he has also featured on international labels including Brique Rouge, Soiree, RF, Biotech, UKR Special Series, Nice & Nasty, Deep Gruv, Hautboxx, Slates Records and many more. His track "Manly Whatnots" sends the release into deeper and moodier territory.

Having been in the music scene for a decade, Jay Robinson's mix of House, Techno and Bass music has found support from all corners of the industry. His Mau5trap releases and collaborations with Idris Elba, Example and Grammy award winning Todd Edwards have all added to what has been a great few years for the Welsh wizard. Here he delivers some slammin' House with "Stroker".

Passionate about music of all genres but particularly drawn to electronic music, Alex Mendes feels equally at home in the studio and on stage, where he excels in the art of extended DJ sets. When it comes to production, Alex gravitates towards music driven by synthesizers and drums, always drawn from his own imagination, allowing him to tell a story in each of his tracks and "Terceiro Orbito" is no exception.

Onur Ozman is one of the more remarkable names in Deep House. Artist and professional architect, he combines both disciplines in his precise productions; sound design to the smallest details. Now based in Zurich, Onur started his career as a prominent member of Istanbul's House scene. His talent has led him to release on labels like Sum Over Histories, Isolate, Yoshitoshi, Hottrax, Rebirth, Noir Music and Kwench. He closes [QR]D.115.TLN.25 with the dappled "Flash Back" to complete another eclectic COD3 QR release.

04- Trecci - Manly Whatnots - PREVIEW

ECOUL147 By Francesco Tamburrano (@ft-dubtechno)  + remixes by @radiobadjay & @blomaq

PREMIERE: Francesco Tamburrano - Orchestral

Originally released in 2009, this standout remix package followed the release of Steve Bug’s fourth full artist album, Collaboratory, which dropped earlier that year to widespread acclaim. The album captured Steve’s dedication to forward-thinking house music, teaming up with a stellar cast of collaborators including Gigi, Donnacha Costello, and Simon Flower.
Collaboratory Remixes Vol.1 brought fresh interpretations from Ribn, Motor City Drum Ensemble, and Sven Tasnadi, and still holds up today.

Ribn (aka Manuel Tur and Langenberg) deliver a deep, dubby, Detroit-tinged take on “Like It Should Be” featuring Gigi. Their Translucent Vox Remix builds with patience, drawing you in with a long, atmospheric intro before locking into a driving, bass-led groove that honors Gigi’s sultry vocals.

Motor City Drum Ensemble brings the heat with a raw house twist on “Still Music,” the Bug and Costello collaboration. Loaded with late 80s and early 90s drum machine attitude and bubbling keys, it’s an acid-tinged workout that still burns.
Sven Tasnadi rounds things out with a tight, tracky remix of “Passing Clouds” (Bug and Simon Flower), fusing melancholic synth lines with solid drums and a modern tech-house edge.

with @beartrax-1

For nearly three decades, Beartrax has been exploring a wide range of instruments and styles since first picking up the violin.

Beartrax’s productions and performances are deeply rooted in organic, musical elements, seamlessly blending violins and synths to reflect his rich musical background and passion for melodies. His influences span heavy metal, punk, new wave, and classical music.

Over the years, his productions have climbed several charts and gained support from renowned DJs. In pursuit of his artistic vision, he launched his own imprint, Melodize, as a platform to showcase his unique approach to house, disco, and techno.
