Melodize label-boss Beartrax announces his ‘Valor EP’ this July, backed with remixes from Johannes Albert and Lauer.

Since its inception in 2019, Beartrax’s Melodize imprint has consistently pushed deeply musical house and techno, with contributions from John Tejada, Fort Romeau, Carl Finlow, and many more standing alongside Beartrax’s original productions throughout the label’s back catalogue.

Leading the sixth release, ‘Phantom Night’ sees haunted atmospherics nestled amongst ethereal synth licks, before a cinematic violin takes centre stage. Johannes Albert’s remix peppers elements of the original with slick acid lines and punchy drums, re-imagining the dramatic violin for a fresh and highly entertaining take.

On the flip, the uplifting ‘Valor’ runs through a series of modulating basslines, glistening pads, and sizzling drums, topped off with a majestic cello performance throughout. Rounding out the release, Lauer adds rubbery low end, floating keys, and hands-in-the-air piano stabs to ‘Valor’ for a high-energy end to another stellar EP from Melodize.

Beartrax ‘Valor EP’ lands on Melodize on 30th July 2021.

Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Perdu aka Alain van der Born returns to Live At Robert Johnson for his second release: On his Illusion Of Choice EP, Perdu drives his sound one notch harder, yet retains his trademark 1980s tinged vibe. Perdu has already secured releases on DGTL Records, Heist and Let’s Play House amongst others, and surely is a keen producer to keep your eyes and ears on.

Back on the Riotvan with the third installment already, it is the ever on point https://soundcloud.com/llewellynmusic, still being the more extroverted Synth/Wave/NeoDisco-alter ego of Lake People - that just as a minor gloss for those who've been living under a rock over the last years. On "These Days" we see him further elaborate his distinctive signature sound, more than ever brimming with confidence and splendour. 

Exhibit A goes by the name "These Days (Don't Make Me Wait)" and instantly wins over the hearts of listeners and dancers alike by its driving, yet utmost elegant appearance. A slapping beat and dream-like pads get played about by a delightful piano improvisation and refined by amazement-triggering adlibs and vocal-excerpts. There you have it: the Indie-Dance-hymn of the season, bathing open air floors everywhere in streams of joy and collective rapture.

Then there is "I Wish I Could Have Seen It All" that in all detail emphasizes on classy Italo Disco-leanings, without compromising on current standards of production craftsmanship and all the requirements to get a crowd moving. That irresistible Funk driven synthbass just being one of them.

Closing things off, it's "Fleshed Out", presenting hissy snares, hi-hat-teasing plus a slightly off-beat arrangement, introducing a stardust powdered lead arpeggio synth and a plain compelling boost of energy and driving dynamic.

Connaisseur and the Italians: Una storia d’amore! Lehar, Musumeci or Olderic, just a few names of Italian artists that come to mind when thinking of the past few years of the Offenbach-based imprint. Now, a new name can be added to this illustrious round: Fabio Vanore, an Italian rooted DJ and producer living in the area of Bonn. He has built himself quite a reputation both in the periphery of Cologne as the resident of the well known club Tante Rike, and with releases on the highly respected Canadian labels mircoCastle and Incroyable Music, with which he is closely connected and where his debut album will come out by end of this year.

Back to his debut on Connaisseur. When we listened to Fabio’s tracks for the first time, we instantly enjoyed the demanding energy of his productions paired with some almost uplifting moments. His music is modern, groove- and melody-driven, flirting with techno (Theory Of Light), modern indie-dance variations ("The Prince") and high energy disco ("Midnight“). A brilliant foretaste of his upcoming album.

This already stunning release is rounded up by remixes by two of the most acclaimed artists of the moment: Bawrut and Cooper Saver. Both artists took the chance to prepare an interpretation for "The Prince". Bawrut used the percussion elements and built them around a rave house monster with balls. Cooper instead used synth elements and took them into a more rocking electro scenario. Two different directions but both state-of-the-art. We couldn't be happier about this release.

Originals and remixes will be released separately with a gap of two weeks.
