Following up on Drubon’s well received „Snareman“ EP, Indonesian Cyda comes up with a non-less impressive EP.  
„Space Energy“ is the name of the debut EP of the award winning producer on Soulfooled. 
 
The title song “Dark Energy” was inspired by watching the 80s anime film “Gundam”. When he heard the Italo/synth influnced movie soundtrack, the idea for it fastly shaped in his head. Out came a modern Italo inspired dance floor weapon. 
Driving bass line, warped chords & dreamy arpeggiators, sounding like a journey through space. How fitting that ‚Hoag’s stuff‘ was inspired by a dreamy moment of Cyda watching the star-filled sky from his window, fantasizing about the life beyond earth. Buckle your belt and let the flight begin!
The EP is closed with - how can it be different? - a tune that he produced after watching the 80s cartoon called "Space Adventure“, that contained a lot of new wave sounds and 80s synth instruments. „In short: I always watch 80s movies that ‚smell’ like outer space to make music“, Cyda resumes...  ‚Space In Your Eyes’ could easily described as the second ‚A-Side‘ here and is rounding up this EP properly.  
 
We hope you enjoy the space travel as much as we do!

Germany’s Tilman inaugurates his new imprint Pleasant Systems this June with the ‘Adventures’ EP, featuring collaborations with Will Buck and Rhode & Brown.

Mainz, Germany based producer and DJ Tilman has been dropping his twist on contemporary house over the past decade on labels such as Shall Not Fade, Life Is For Living and Quality Vibes as well as his own Fine imprint, run in collaboration with Johannes Albert. Here though, Tilman marks a new beginning with the launch of Pleasant Systems, a new imprint designed to shine a light on vintage inspired house sounds from both himself and friends.

Up first is ‘What’s Mine Is Mine’, a collaboration with Brooklyn’s Will Buck which lays down an amalgamation of airy synth pads, choppy bass stabs, bright piano lines and enchanting flute like melodies atop a swinging drum groove. ‘Strawberry Fields’ follows, stripping things back to shuffled percussion, billowing ethereal textures and wandering sub bass tones while fluttering brass tones and resonant leads ebb and flow within.

‘Velvet Park’ opens the flip side, this time joining forces with Rhode & Brown, embracing a classic sound with raw crunchy drums, delayed piano chords, bumpy bass stabs, cinematic strings and brass hooks throughout. ‘Lovin'’ then rounds out the release, dropping the tempo, featuring the voice of Tilman himself and laying focus on off-kilter organic percussion, twinkling resonant tones, eighties tinged synth chords and g funk moog style bass to perfectly conclude Pleasant System’s debut...

INCOMING : Biesmans - Careless Nights (Original Mix) #Sinchi
Release date : 2021-10-01
Buy : https://sinchilove.bandcamp.com/album/biesmans-careless-nights

Belgian synth obsessive Biesmans continues his fine form with a standout new single that gets remixed by Tjade and Zombies in Miami. As always, we will donate all proceeds to the Sinchi Foundation to support Indigenous peoples worldwide.

Biesmans first fell in love with the magic of synthesisers aged just eight. After soaking up the many great discos and after-hours clubs in his native Flanders region, he completed a degree in Electronic Music, moved to Berlin and became a sound technician at the Watergate club. He then debuted on their label with an impressive EP and followed it up with 2020's accomplished debut album ‘Trains, Planes & Automobiles.’ His fantastic 'Careless Nights' was crafted on a hardware-heavy studio setup and is a richly textured synth disco track. Corrugated basslines, slapping hits and shiny 80s arpeggios all make for a lively, upbeat groove. The drums pump away and take you ever higher on a wave of expressive melody.

Utrecht-based Tjade is best known for 'Koi Jaye', a rework of a 90’s Bollywood classic that got played by the likes of Hunee and Palms Trax at Dekmantel and DGTL Festival. He has gone on to work with
labels like Live at Robert Johnson and Mule Musiq where he fuses trance, electro and Italo. This remix is eight excellent minutes of colourful synth loops, slapping broken beats and rugged bass that makes for a physical groove.

Canibal & Jenouise's Zombies In Miami project brings together techno and rock into visceral club music. They have a thrilling live act and have long had high-profile support from the likes of Michael Mayer, and Roman Flugel. They flip the original into a hands-in-the-air Italo disco anthem run-through with sci-fi motifs and bright, futuristic chord sequences.

SKY GIRL 2LP/CD/DIG OUT NOW

Sky Girl is a mysteriously unshakeable companion, a deeply melancholic and sentimental journey through folk-pop, new wave and art music micro presses that span 1961-1991. A seemingly disparate suite of selections of forgotten fables by more or less neverknowns, Sky Girl forms a beautifully coherent and utterly sublime whole deftly compiled by French collectors DJ Sundae and Julien Dechery.

From Scott Seskind's adolescent musical road movie to Karen Marks' icy Oz-wave, the charming DIY storytelling of Italian-American go-getter Joe Tossini and the ethereal slow dance themes of Parisian artists Nini Raviolette and Hugo Weris, Sky Girl resonates on a wide spectrum historically, geographically and stylistically. It unites in a singular, longing, almost intangible ambience.

If the names sound wholly unfamiliar that doesn't matter, the nature of the compositions swiftly nurtures an intimacy with these lonely, poignant, openhearted wanderers. Most were available in a very limited capacity at the time of their release, some were never really released at all - Gary Davenport declined to release Sarra after he split with the girl for whom the track is named - years later a friend convinced Davenport to allow him to put 100 copies online to sell and DJ Sundae was quick enough to snare one. Beyond their scarcity, these tracks are bound together by a certain raw beauty that's achievable when music is made and no one is listening.

Sky Girl comprises of fifteen officially licensed songs, a two year international scavenger hunt through long-folded home label operations, the depths of internet forums and traceless acetates. Both compilers are well trained record sleuths - DJ Sundae's labels Hollie and Idle Press have reissued Arthur Russell affiliate Nirosta Steel and DIY relic Pitch, while Julien Dechery previously compiled 'Fire Star', a retrospective on Tamil film composer Ilaiyaraaja, for Bombay Connection.

Released by Noise In My Head offshoot Efficient Space, Sky Girl is enriched with artwork from Perks and Mini mutant Misha Hollenbach and appropriately elegant sleeve notes courtesy of Ivan Smagghe.

PREMIERE : Damon Jee & Darlyn Vlys - Kronos (Wild Mix) [Correspondant]
Buy : https://correspondant.lnk.to/Kronos
Release Date : 2019-04-03

Damon Jee and Darlyn Vlys collide for their debut collaborative EP: ‘Kronos’

Titanic by name, untightened by nature; all three originals from the freshly-formed French collab and remixes from Rebolledo and Club Tularosa purr with dark disco charm. Big synth sweeps, deep-plunging modulating basslines, tidal cosmic washes and live instrumentation all strong flavours in the mix.

‘Kronos’ is the lord of the chug. All sleazy and vapour traces, both the more techno-influenced Wild mix and the hazier, trippier Shaman mix hit the groove sweet spot and set the scene for the psychedelic slo-mo stomps that follow… The harmonic push-me-pull-you ripples of ‘Antihero’ and its slinky bass strumming rework from Hippie Dance bossman Rebolledo and the animated tension of ‘Thrills’ and recent Me Me Me lurkers Club Tularosa whose vibrant space disco finale bring the EP to the dramatic crescendo it deserves.

Potent. Outerplanetary. Class A Correspondant moments.

bio :

We are all the product of our influences and there is no substitute for experience. Damon Jee is the embodiment of that statement. Over the last 20 years he has carved a career in a very unassuming way, unintentionally writing an exciting new chapter for the global electronic music scene. He is the journeyman who managed to shine brighter by staying true to himself, a musical alchemist experimenting with different sounds to create a deadly new potion. Today, the producer is considered the main exponent of a fresh and exciting new scene many are calling Dark Disco. 

Getting his start in the studio alongside fellow Frenchman Olivier Giacomotto, the duo became main players on the then booming electro house scene with an impressive run of productions on labels like Definitive and CR2. As he started producing more solo works, Jee naturally veered towards his rebellious heritage growing up on nineties rock and industrial bands like Nine Inch Nails, The Pixies, Nirvana and more. The organic appeal of live rock seeped into his productions: distorted guitars gliding atop fat, off-beat and two-fingered picked bass, all framed within a foundation of percussion and drums that carries Damon Jee’s immaculately engineered and distinct sound. The music he released under his NOZZ moniker is especially steeped in this unique and heavy-duty sound: powerful productions which doubles up as heat seeking missiles aimed straight at the heart of any dancefloor.

It was his remix of Pardon Moi’s ‘Power to the People’ that really pushed the affable Frenchman to  a wider audience. It has it all: trance melodies and cosmic chords, a confidant rock stomp coiled with electronic euphoria, and robotic vocals gleefully riding a wave of energetic drums. It received support from the world’s best tastemakers including Solomun, Job Jobse and HAAi, introducing Damon Jee to a brand new audience. 

Today his singular sound can be heard on the underground’s most sought-after labels including Roam, Hafendisko, Suara and Sincopat to name a few. Huge support came in the form of Jennifer Cardini who signed his massive three track Chamaniac EP to her Correspondant Records. Its appeal reaching wide, the EP received support from various corners of the electronic music sphere with a diverse group of DJs from Andrew Weatherall to Chris Liebing to Joris Voorn all getting around it.

The natural evolution of Damon Jee has lead to the recent launch of his label, Critical Monday. The new imprint will explore Damon Jee’s idiosyncratic sound even further. The first release under his Holographic Planes moniker, alongside producer Alvaro Cabana, is a three track dance floor bomb featuring an equally effective remix from Jennifer Cardini. With upcoming releases from Curses, Autarkic, Fairmont, and, of course, Damon Jee, the label is set to become a go-to for those looking to ignite any dancefloor.

Today Damon Jee is slotting perfectly into his role as a bona fide headliner. Years of experience ensures each set is delivered with a confidant ease and professionalism that sets him apart from the rest. Headlining clubs and events from Spain to Australia to Mexico, Damon Jee is set to spearhead a new generation of electronic music lovers who isn’t afraid to cross-pollinate their music for a thrilling new sound. If you need an antidote for a flailing dancefloor, Damon Jee has the tonic to revive your night.
