PREMIERE: CONCEPTUAL - Dinamismo Estetico [DUNA001]

Written and Produced by Simone Scardino aka CONCEPTUAL, Berlin 2020/2022

Digital 
1- Ninna Nanna For Bad Children
 2- Me Medesimo 
3- Højer 
4- Not An Easy One
5- I Always Feel Like Somebody’s Watching Me

 
CONCEPTUAL is the musical journey of Berlin based producer Simone Scardino, a sci fi techno specialist well seasoned with releases on the best scientific labels out there. His approach on techno comes apart from trends and superficiality, it always has an underlying message and it’s made with detail and intelligence.
 
This extended EP is not for the faint hearted, it requires some knowledge about intrincated soundscapes and requires attention and long term vision to capture the feeling properly. It can be completely beatless and atmospheric as the open title Ninna Nanna For Bad Children or super rhythmic like Me Medesimo where broken and bass heavy beats combine with elaborated textures exquisitely sound designed to cause the required damage on the dancefloor.
 
Højer is traversing similar terrain, but this time based on a 4/4 beat, rugged and distorted, metallic and industrial, a no mercy weapon for the darkest sound spaces.
 
On the B side, Not An Easy One gives another ration of proper non conventional dancefloor action, again with a well balanced combination of groove and texture.
 
 I Always Feel Like Somebody’s Watching Me closes the release changing the approach completely going hypnotic instead of muscular, with a complex drum work spiced with super-treated synth lines in constant change.
 
The sound of the future experienced today, made by a visionary.

Sciahri & CONCEPTUAL - Ritmo Oscuro [nwhite016]

You're not dreaming: Oscar Mulero, Kaiser, CONCEPTUAL, Roll Dann, Vegim, Bøhm, Finalversion3, Irazu & Unkle Fon, and Atisbo & Schrzø all in the same Various Artists compilation in our GTX A TOTA VIROLLA Vol06 series.

We still don't know why... but some of the world's most talented producers have decided to participate in this V.A to create a robust, varied, powerful, dizzying, elegant, and far from passing fashion tracklist. Timeless techno with total devotion to the underground, to the dance floor, to clubbing, and to sensory experiences under the smoke and strobe lights.

In this compilation, you won't find a single filler track; each artist delivers impeccable production with an eye on the future of the genre, from the spatial abstraction of CONCEPTUAL to the hypnotic groove of Bøhm, the broken rhythms of Atisbo & Schrzø, the robotic synths of Finalversion3, the dystopian sequences of Irazu & Unkle Fon, the sobriety of Vegim, the luminous percussion of Roll Dann, and the dancefloor destroyer that maestro Oscar Mulero signs with that killer 909 and his sci-fi synth.

CONCEPTUAL - Sand Fury [SOMA SELECTS Premiere]

Vinyl:
A1 – Approach slowly
A2 – Il silenzio degli innocenti
A3 – No more excuses
B1 – Sand fury
B2 – Thousand miles per hour.
 
Digital:
01 – Approach slowly
02 – Il silenzio degli innocenti
03 – No more excuses
04 – Sand fury
05 – Thousand miles per hour

Berlin based producer CONCEPTUAL is back home after his Not an easy one Ep, again providing his own vision on techno, full of sonic landscapes, detail and intelligence.

Release starts with Approach slowly a brief atmospheric intro that sets the pace for what comes next in Il silenzio degli innocenti introducing the rhythmic pulse from the first bar with almost all elements into he equation, this is a minimalistic tool where percussive elements evolve in a subtle manner all over the arrangement.

No more excuses continues in the mood, adding more spice to the formula with reverberated details, growing mental sequences and the usual complex groove. Intense and mental all in one.

Sand fury follows, with atmospheres colliding with rugged components, evolving all together in a progressive arrangement, a superb tool to enhance your mixes properly.

Miles per hour introduces you into another sonic realm, using elastic synth lines, a wise reverb work and a sensation of infinite space combined with floor intensity. Again a proper intelligent missile for the adequate dancefloors out there.

Simone Scardino is one of those few creators that always pushes his sound one step further and we are super proud to have him onboard again.

Preview: CONCEPTUAL - No more excuses EP [PoleGroup76]

Here you have the new sound voyage in our digital branch. Again showcasing a long distance travel in the form of an album. 
It is really inspiring to find that there are young producers out there like that are pushing the boundaries and trying to sound futuristic and original in this mediochre instagram days.
This is the case of CONCEPTUAL half of the Berlin based duo  Beat Movement. 
He offers ten diverse approaches to scifi techno, ranging from the cinematic Red Sun and Null Respekt to the dynamic and floor oriented numbers like Basilisk, Nocturnal or Blue Spirit. To the twisted and abstract Upside Down, Healing Dance or More wants more ...or the tribal and shuffled exercises like Paradise of Poets and Tasmanian Devil.
As we said, original, risky, futuristic, and carefully done by a young producer that will have for sure a lot more to showcase in the coming years.

Release date: June 5

Release date: 21/12/2020

1. CONCEPTUAL - Introspective Research

Introspective Research is the result of an inner exploration, where feelings and subconsciousness fuse and transform into a techno expression. Through research and new experimentations CONCEPTUAL has created an EP composed of four tracks with a clear concept. Three-dimensional spatial sounds combined with gentle but determined drum grooves create a mystical and whirling result and a killer stereo experience!

CONCEPTUAL - Introspective Research  EP [FAUT033]

“Don’t be scared to do what makes you happy, even though it means going against the stream. Make art the way art is beautiful for you.”

Simone Scardino has created a musical style and vision that truly is his own, sharing it with the world with his new solo project CONCEPTUAL.

Techno is body music. It’s all about this special feeling that you have when your mind disconnects and your body just follows the music, the feeling of freedom when you dance. Simone’s vision of techno unceasingly characterizes his unique productions as well as his DJ sets. Colorful and energetic techno, a powerful explosion of craziness and happiness at the same time. Three-dimensional spatial sounds combined with gentle but determined drum grooves create a mystical and whirling result and a killer stereo experience!

Last year Simone founded the Berlin based art and music collective Friendship Collective. Through his devotion to techno and visual and performance arts the idea for CONCEPTUAL was born. His performances will often be characterized by collaborations with visual artists and performers, creating a special techno experience for the people that come to see him play. 

Simone’s progressive approach to producing and DJing as well as his collaborations with artists in and outside music reflects his artistic vision and goals as much as his spirited personality, and, in its essence, embodies what CONCEPTUAL represents. Plans for the year hold upcoming releases as well preparing playing live, continuously exploring the world of electronic music with his fans.
