ooh yes. waited so so long for an reissue

Transmitting treacherous local energy into his new creative undertakings, Bogdan now joins the Not An Animal force keeping the flame well and truly ignited. A'Parovoznikov' fires across all cylinders with a vigorous Italo-arp bass motor, driving it further down the cosmic highway, engine doused in fully-lubricated synth-pad oil.

Justin Van Der Volgen's remix swiftly rips the wing mirror clean off with a zealous two-to-the-floor-hitting blowout. On the B, 'Listopad' cruises top down with a more Balearic approach. A dreamy square bass glissades alongside percussive hats and succulent pads that shuffle within the horizon, whilst computer bleeps chomp and add an intensifying clarity. Kito Jempere's remix closes the release with his first contribution to the label. It lifts up the original and drives towards sundown into moonlight. Warping bass tones squelch against fetching stabs and brash breaks keeping this track fully pulsating.

Bogdan - Paravoznikov - Justin Van Der Volgen Remix - Out Now

So here we are with Riotvan's second installment of the "Familiar Faces", showcasing what's happening with the label these days (a lot), making label-residents shake hands and welcome affiliated folks to the syndicate. Although this is a 'various artists'-format, the here gathered stylistic approaches and track-turned mindsets make a strikingly coherent body of work. Just another evidence of how Riotvan has evolved into a renowned think tank of likeminded artists and indicator of state of the art sonic bliss. 

Kicking off we find Perel immersing in yet another synth-driven stream, seeking continuation to her latest, widely praised full length-cycle, but this time bypassing Venus or rather "Super Venus" while floating off to other otherworldly dimensions.

Next in line are Black Spuma, i.e. Lauer and Fabrizio Mammarella, demonstrating via "Drumbaeck" what a match in Neo-Disco-heaven they are. A highly energetic beat, laying the grounding for a cheerful synth-hook and harmonies you won't get out of your head anytime soon.

Same goes for "Tropical Redux", the follow up by none other than Panthera Krause. A particularly elated affair, carried out by a funked up bassline and a catchy string-theme, sticking its neck out in Disco-realms, while maintaining a primetime-adjusted groove.

At this point it's about time for a premiere. Say hi to New Hook, an all-female power-force with their debut release. "FXART" comes as a well-versed exercise in reviving frigid 80ies leanings with a contemporary urgency and attitude. And that's just a glimpse on what's to come from Linda, Ilka and Juliane.

Chinaski, definitely no stranger to the Riotvan family, is taking on the 80ies vibe and hands in "Zeichen der Zeit", an unhasting ride through various galaxies, combining nostalgic synth-aesthetics with spaced out futurism.

Closing things off, it's label-mainstay Jennifer Touch cutting deep with "Bleed", an almost existentially emotive composition, exploring spiritual abysses lyrically, re-modelling emotional chaos within the overtones of the arrangement and even trimming things down to physical functionality within the track's progression.

"Familiar Faces Nº2" will be out end of October 5th on Vinyl and digital formats, both being distributed by Muting The Noise. Artwork courtesy of Karen from Studio M21N.

Fader - Mode 500

Fewer things get us more excited than a Credit 00 track to Premiere, after the beasts that was the Metal Box EP his own Rat Life Records or Game Over LP on Uncanny Valley, he's back, this time on Bordello a Parigi with a killer, and it's fair to say with his latest offering that Big Beat is back!  Credit 00 is on form, on fire and on top of his game. 
Bordello a Parigi have a hit on their hand as they release Cruisin' which could easily be a lost Chemical Brothers B side from the early 90s. Coming on like a forgotten Ibiza classic buried in the bottom of your record box just begging to be remembered. 
Cruisin' evokes that 90s sound, whether it reminds you of Madchester, Cafe Mambo or the Conchord in Brighton, it's an absolute must hear from a quality artist on a quality label.

PREMIERE | Credit 00 - Cruisin' [Bordello A Parigi] 2018

The stars were gathered like flickering bulbs a million miles away, they flashed and dance like little particles upon the dense black backdrop in a galaxy beyond our own. They were stood upon a hillside looking up at the great expanse of space which lay beyond the realms of the imagination. They could only dream of what magic dance between the planets and the stars - what delights were hidden upon worlds very different to their own. The night was growing colder now as a thin breeze began to work between the tall dense greenery which surrounded them. Those local clusters were but a hazy vision in the midst of night. 

Seetheroad is set to release a new EP on Tusk Wax, a record label which has moved from strength to strength focussing on releasing experimental, rough, rugged electronic music. The EP also includes a remix from latest LuckyMe signing Nathan Micay who has just released his debut album. His track is a rework, drawing on the abstract elements in a holly metallic state.

Angela was the studio project of husband/wife duo Angela and Ingo Werner formed in 1981 in Rüsselsheim, Germany. Ingo had classical training in bassoon and piano at the Akademie für Tonkunst in Darmstadt from 1966-70. He joined Krautrock band My Solid Ground in 1971 before going on to form his own project Baba Yaga in 1974.  In the late 70s he formed the ensemble AIR with Armin Stöwe and Reinhard Karwatky. The project debuted with  a a concert at ARS Electronica Competition in Linz, Austria 1980, which they won. Klaus Schulze was on the jury with Wendy Carlos and Robert Moog - but more importantly, Angela was in the audience. Two days later, Ingo told the band he needed a singer, so they asked Angela, and recorded two albums for RCA between 1981-82 before being dropped. Ingo wanted to work on a new project that involved dancers and live video. They recruited American performance artist Jyl Porch, who was living in Munich, to assist with choreography with her friend Kirsten McKenley. Jyl ended up recording her own album first, which gained interest from Klaus Schulze, who helped them secure a deal with EMI in 1983. Later that year, the trio recorded 4 songs that would be released on Angela ‘Fantasy’ single on 7” and 12” formats in 1984.
The music on ‘Fantasy’ was completely created with computer software of Ingo’s own design. The concept of a polyrhythmic, polyphonic, and polydynamic sequencer was realized by Ingo after a visit to Wolfgang Palm in Hamburg. He paired his sequencer with Palm’s legendary PPG Wave Computer System, allowing for more dynamic and nuanced programming. Angela programmed the music, sang, and wrote the lyrics to “Painted Love”, while Ingo arranged and played all electronics and keyboards. Jyl wrote the lyrics for “Fantasy” and the slow and sleazy, electronic disco B-side “I Gotta Little Love”, where she also sings background vocals and the “hot little flame” rap. The original B-side to the 7” version was a cover of the 1967 Hal Hackady and Lee Pockriss song “Kites”, made famous by Simon Dupree and the Big Sound.  All songs have been remastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The EP features the original 1984 cover artwork with a striking photo of Angela styled by Jyl in severe Neue Deutsche Welle fashion, and includes an insert with lyrics and and photos designed by Maycec.

Gd'I-Rec #1 – Marco Donada: «Ciao! Giorgio»

Gd'I-Rec #1 – Marco Donada: «Ciao! Giorgio»

UK based Tecwaa background is in the early Yorkshire rave scene, which makes you understand his music on a deeper level. His tasteful turning of knobs on the Roland 303 takes you back to in time to an early morning somewhere round 1990 with a diesel generator pushed to the limit roaring somewhere in the background. But Tecwaa music is a lot more than a trip in time: the sound is modern and extremely well produced where the few but exquisite sounds hook in to each other naturally and creates a round solid groove. 
The sound varies from airy and light in ”Xentaeh” to warmer and heavier in the other track ”Ci”. What goes for the sound overall is the somewhat surprising elements in how the songs develop, both in rhythm and sound wise. Teecwa music bare traces of trance, rave, early techno and so on but you could call it ”uplifting, psychedelic leftfield electro” and this is his first release on Höga Nord Rekords. 
7" Record is out November 27th, pre- orders taken at: https://hoganordrekords.bandcamp.com/album/hnr033-c-xent-h-pre-orders-taken-releadedate-2019-11-29

Manu Louis - Internet (Remix By Front De Cadeaux)

They glimmered in the pale moonlight, a radiant kaleidoscope of strange colours and shapes.

Her golden lips were the talk of the town as she walked aimlessly between bars under the cloak of darkness. Many had tried their luck but few had ever gotten close to her tainted heart. She was fierce and cold, golden and electric like the flashing lights of the city's underbelly itself. She was back in town..

Now this one is just a little bit special. Chicken Lips are back and mean business on a new EP for Phantasy. The infamous nu disco pioneers return with a wonderful new release, perfectly tied up by a guest appearance from Dj Sotofett who brings the heat on remix duties. Summer is very much here and we're heading to the West Coast...
