Passion; it's the spark that starts the engine, the hurricane that fans the flames, the total faith in someone, something, someplace. And this is its theme tune.

Courtesy of currently unstoppable Paradiso bossman Rees, 'Passion Theme' is the latest dispatch of smouldering sonics on Alan Dixon's burgeoning Love Attack label, which launched earlier this year with a stellar trip from the mighty Man Power. A star-lit synth smile brigade with themes of Italo, new beat and early Chicago house, it's the vibrant soundtrack we all so dearly need as we gear up for the return to our favourite dancefloor corners.

It's backed by more cosmically minded modern day disco themes of 'Infant Hercules'. A triumphant, slab of synth-soaked house music, the title is a homage to his hometown Middlesbrough and its rich industrial history. Remix-wise Disco Halal chief Moscoman & Komilev keep the creative furnace glowing with a spiralling Italo-inspired twist.

Finally Rees gifts us 'Sapere Aude'. A much tougher, moodier piece of electronic soul, the passion still buzzes through the track but there's a poignancy in the sweeping chords and arpeggio that build and build into an emotional volcano. Engines ready to spark, flames ready to fan, the passion on this one palpable.

Octave One - 'Just Don't Speak'
Available here: hyperurl.co/justdontspeak

Still riding high off the success of their last album but never ones to sit still, titanic techno duo Octave One are back with a hot new single. Featuring their long time collaborator Ann Saunderson on vocals and coming with three different mixes, ‘Just Don’t Speak’ it is sure to be a summer anthem.

Detroit’s Octave One are one of the most revered and hard working live acts in all of dance music, and have been since the late eighties.  As well as being devoted to cooking up scintillating shows on the fly, they also keep busy in the studio, serving up the sort of high grade and impactful records that keep DJs and dancers happy. ‘Just Don't Speak’ has already received repeated support from Pete Tong on Radio 1, who played the world exclusive on his show, so is a truly bonafide bomb.

The track features their long time collaborator (British singer/songwriter), Ann Saunderson who also collaborated with Octave One on their massive dance anthem ‘Blackwater’ (released in 2002) and has worked with a list of who's who, in the dance music arena.

Also featured on ‘Just Don't Speak’ are the Urban Soul Orchestra (USO) who also collaborated on‘Blackwater’, adding a unique twist to the track with their contemporary string ensemble. As a versatile string ensemble, USO have worked at the top of the UK music industry for 20 year, specialising in recording sessions for top artists, major corporate events and exclusive private parties. Violinist, conductor, orchestrator and arranger Stephen Hussey founded the USO, arranging and recording strings for pop artists. Oasis invited USO to perform at their second album launch for (What's The Story) Morning Glory? with an offer to play at Mariah Carey’s Christmas party following shortly after. Since then USO have been delighting audiences at exclusive events all around the world and have worked with artists such as; Mick Jagger, Madonna  Kylie  Grace Jones, Jay Z, Groove Armada, Nitin Sawhney and many more.

‘Just Don’t Speak’ is a barrelling house cut with subtle but joyous piano chords rolling above fat bass. Ann’s vocals are typically elastic and emotive and love fuelled. They soar as the pressure below builds and are sure to leave crowds in raptures. An instrumental version places even more focus on the uplifting and driving groove, and a dub version strips things back to the infectious percussion and bold drum lines, making for a more macho and physical cut.

A radio edit is also included in the package and ensures that all bases are covered in great style by the ever essential Burden brothers.

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.
