Correspondant return with their fourth annual label compilation. In this, the year of their fifth anniversary, they invite you on a night drive which takes you deeper in to the darkness. Label owner Jennifer Cardini has assembled a cavalcade of Correspondant’s core family (Man Power, Red Axes, Javi Redondo), closest collaborators (Axel Boman Borusiade), and newest friends (Chida, Yovav, Dollkraut, Kiwi, Jonathan Kusuma, Autarkic) to show the world that Correspondant has a synthetic heart of punk which pumps glacial disco through its frozen veins.
The compilation represents the beginning of celebrations for the labels 5th Birthday, in a summer that will see Correspondant hit the road, visiting some of their favourite clubs and presenting showcases from their closest artists.

It's been a crazy 5 years for the label. Steered by Jennifer Cardini, Correspondant has never taken the easy or cheap route, yet it's dedication to the skewed, dark and difficult end of the dance spectrum has paid of with an every growing legion of supporters joining the label from both sides of the turntables.

Jennifer and the whole Correspondant family would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone and anyone who has ever shown the label love and support, and we look forward to dancing together for the next 5 years.

RIPPERTON 'This EP is a pure beauty. Smile, love and sunlight through the speakers.'
ALAIN HO (DJ YELLOW) 'Another killer EP from the Buzzin' Fly crew. Always been a huge fan of Mano's work - the idea, the quality and the sound is on top. A 5 star release.'
TIM GREEN 'Really incredible release. Stories is beautiful, the chords and vocal create such a great atmosphere. Am especially liking from the start, more for a dj set point of view. Great synth sound/hook. Will support these tracks for sure!'
HRDVSION (WAGON REPAIR)	'Mano le Tough is gold! Love this new EP! I like the vocal tracks a lot, but I LOVE "Take It Back" especially the loose synth work! Great job!'

Mano Le Tough / 'Stories' (Extract)

Provence-based singer Snem K is most known from this collaboration with The Two Mamarrachos, their song “Teach me” in the Factory Floor remix was a decent underground hit earlier this year which got a well-deserved hype by Mixmag. “Pure Sun” is his new release on Emerald & Doreen, a weirdly happy, warm late summer, golden October song he wrote for his newborn daughter. So there is a lot of love in it! The original is a slow-mo Balearic dub house tune with a earworm good time whistle, which, when we heard it first, reminded us a bit of 1960s movies with Jean Gabin or 1970s movies with Adriano Celentano – a very unique tune indeed and makes you sing along instantly! Do the whistle! Or sing along: Da-Da-Da-Da-…. so good!  Rather want to dance in slow motion? Snem K’s “Dragon Mix” grooves darkly: imagine a 7-year-old-ninja girl dancing and swirling in slow motion through falling red and yellow leaves. Not yet enough groove? Then you will love the hard-hitting “The Two Mamarrachos” remix, featuring a fat, steadily grooving bassline and a spaced-out Kraftwerk-ish lead synth, perfect for the little angel that came from space and then grows more and more into a full-fledged and timeless slo-mo burner. DJ Steef delivers the perfect sunset tune and Extrapillow’s Matin du Sud remix closes this very special EP with a trippy and sun-drenched October synth-disco version for the early hours after sunset. Pure Sun is Pure Fun!

Berlin duo The/Das release their sophomore album, Exit Strategies, on Life And Death. The absorbing 12-tracker is the result of a period of searching that finds the new line-up of Fabian Fenk and Philipp Koller combine multiple ideas, layers, fragments and sounds and refine their distinct idea of techno tenderness. It makes for a soothing and escapist 60 minute listen that works as well at home, on headphones, as it does loud in the club.

Even though his stage name oozes lost NBA finals and industrial decline, Cleveland has been on the soaring side of things since the drop of his arresting debut EP for John Talabot's label @hivern_disc. We caught up with Andrea to talk up the making of his latest release, naivety in art as well as his studio modus operandi.

Mireia Records is ecstatic to welcome back Johannes Klingebiel. 
Johannes has steadily carved a niche for himself with his distinct brand of emotive, yet playful house music. Coming out strongly with his debut “Latewood” in 2015 and following up with the poignant “Nightlife” on Mireia Records in 2017. Now he’s continuing his knack for contemplative, melodic and danceable music on “It’s OK To Cry”.
