Certain records define a generation. Some records only last a generation. Other records unite the generations, transcending boundaries of age and time and bringing us all together...

Cue ‘Generation’, featuring the powerful vocals of the talented Vincent Brasse. Not just a new creation from the longstanding partnership of Darlyn Vlys and Damon Jee but also the debut release of Darlyn’s brand new label Polaris.

Building on Darlyn and Damon’s consistent output, ‘Generation’ instantly hits the imagination with its emotional drive and bring sweeping synths and analogue warmth. It’s backed by two instrumental originals from the French based duo; the moody, dramatic ‘Black Sand’ and the cosmic, strident star-gazing struts of ‘Afterglow’.

Complete with a special Italo version of ‘Generation’, only available to the Bandcamp faithful, this is a beautiful way to launch an exciting new label. Expect more Polaris platters very soon..

It’s time. Correspondant dive headfirst into the summer we’ve been waiting for with the triumphant and poignant sounds of https://soundcloud.com/damon-jee & https://soundcloud.com/darlynvlys ’ - ‘Behind Us’.

Capturing the sound of a scene waking up and marching into action with more energy than we’ve seen since the 90s, every track fits this time we’re in right now. The daring drum drama and ridiculously tense rises of ‘Behind Us’, the touching end-scene euphoria of Perel’s remix of ‘Apocalypsis’ and the powerful and seemingly endless build of ‘Prophete’ are three examples of the substance at play.

This is raw, heartfelt and heavy music from some of Correspondent’s nearest and dearest, all laced with an overwhelming sense of tension and enormous moments of release and amplified by three exceptional versions from Perel and Peter Invasion & Gregor Habicht. Plus a bonus track. Welcome back to the dancefloor… Let us know if you’re getting behind this one.

Premiere: Darlyn Vlys - Surrender [Pets Recordings]

Born in Mexico, now living in France, Leonor is a well received producer with a remarkable impact in the electronic scene releasing in labels such Feines Tier, My Favorite Robot to name a few.
He lands on Polaris with a beautiful Ep plenty of matisses, featuring a collaboration with the  French producer 'Iba Boo'.

The Ep kicks off with shimmering energy with the track ‘Yo Soy'. The Mexican artist sets the scene with a sprawling, spacey trip. With deep chugging and undulating guitars, it's a swampy, intense road trip... with no way home.

We continue with the track 'Cold', a magnificent piece in collaboration with the talented 'Iba Boo' where the chords of his Telecaster blend with the vocals where good vibrations and positive energy are omnipresent.

For the remix, French duo Damon Jee & Darlyn Vlys join forces to reinterpret their version of "Yo Soy", a poignant version destined to hit the dancefloor.
While , the German duo Peter Invasion & Gregor Habicht deliver their own version of 'Yo Soy', bringing their own acid and dark signature to the ep


Enjoy!

The captain returns to his ship with two new dancefloor weapons.
This time he's teamed up with Autralian producer Haptic for the track 'Last Drive'.  
On the remix duties, we warmly welcome to the talented Brazilian Waltervelt (Ellum).


Last Drive' is the first chapter of the story, a track that takes listeners on a psychedelic journey with Australian Haptic's trippy vocal and infectious rock rythms, creating a captivating and hypnotic break.


We continue with ‘Abre Los Ojos’, another solid and compact signature track from the French producer, with an infectious groove that gets stuck in your head, accompanied by cinematic breaks that will get crowds dancing. A perfectly executed track for your closing set.

Waltervelt's remix is an extraordinary reinterpretation, retaining the essence of the original and taking it to its darkest side.

Enjoy!!!

Darlyn Vlys & Panthera - Come With Us [Sincopat 127]

French producer Darlyn Vlys makes a striking return to Pets Recordings, following up his 2023 single 'Surrender' with a new two-track release... this time, in search of 'Salvation.'

The EP captures Vlys' sharp sense for atmosphere and groove, balancing emotion with precision. Title track 'Salvation' channels a robotic electro pulse, its dark synths and throbbing basslines surging with controlled intensity... a dancefloor current designed to spark movement and tension in equal measure.

On the flip, 'Dominion' takes command with marching rhythms, growling low-end, and sharp percussive detail, cementing Vlys' ability to merge human instinct with machine soul.

Darlyn Vlys - Salvation  [Pets Recordings]

Welcome back, old friend! It's been quite a while since Valencia-based producer Sylvain Soulier, better known as Darlyn Vlys first appeared on the Upon You Sweet & Sour Series back in 2010 and a lot has happened since then. Now, backed by releases on well respected labels like Sincopat, Terminal M and many others, it's time for Darlyn Vlys to make a big return, serving a massive TechHouse anthem for 2016. The original version of „Colours“ fuses big room TechHouse, a slightly proggy feel and ever morphing Acid references to a great, spiralling and well-enthralling effect, building up nicely before Forrest serves a killer vocal performance that is yet simple, powerful and fascinating, an anthemic array of words that a new generation of punters will never forget once they've heard them on a large rig. Instant classic detected. Our man Ruede Hagelstein strips down things a little in his remix, focusing on the techier, cleaner and more scientific side of the TechHouse spectrum and coming up with a hypnotizing minimalist Acid version backed by an effective two tone, Intelligent Techno-resembling bass and nice floating synth arrangements to be loved by tech purists for a reason. Finally the young German producer Tim Engelhardt is going deep with his version, focusing on gooey, all embracing sawtooth bass beauty and a crystalline, melancholia-inducing motif layered on top of  decent beat foundation gravitating towards uptempo realms for the small hours.

Darlyn Vlys - Clubbingspain 298

Back with a new shot from Valencia, Spain is Mr. Darlyn Vlys. The man who has become a regular contributor to the Upon.You Records-catalogue over the past years, constantly setting crowds in motion with his distinct futurist production style is delivering two new efforts for this summer season which are surely about to stand the test of time and will be on heavy rotation throughout the next months... and beyond. With this singles title track Faux Semblants the Spaniard brings on a tripping, hypnotic late night banger meandering the line between dark'ish TechHouse and Deep Techno, a universal weapon of spatial quality built on a few distinct, atmospheric elements only which are more than enough to send your brains to outer space. Going Orbital we see Darlyn Vlys weighing a damp, slightly muffled foundation beatwise, providing a solid background for sharp percussive attacks, off-kilter sweeps, large than life klaxon'esque effects and heavy bass tsunamis ready to wipe out everyone and everything not willing to party as hard as they can. Defo a weapon of choice for large scale underground raves, this.

ATL024 - DARLYN VLYS - HORSE FEAT. HAPTIC

February 2019 marks two years of ATLANT and our most important release so far as we combine the musical talents of Nîmes (FR) born Darlyn Vlys with Sydney (AUS) vocalist Haptic, alongside stunning re-imaginings by electronic visionaries Mind Against, Tim Engelhardt and Peter Pardeike.
‘Horse’ first appeared on radars when Âme b2b Dixon premiered this emotional vocal to close their Innervisions hosted Royal Albert Hall 2018 event. With the rumour mill gathering pace it was a challenge to keep things under wraps, especially because we wanted to create an ATLANT package truly worthy of this special track.
The Original’s strummed bass-line and organic percussion immediately catch your attention, with everything stripped back to lay bare Haptic’s raw emotional shoegaze tone. A lesson in restraint, Darlyn Vlys’s subtle use of studio effects and sumptuous synth layers add warmth as Haptic asks us to pause, before leading the way to a string drenched chorus to ‘just give in’. Now the track develops, with the lyrics becoming ingrained in our memory. As the bass and beats exit, this time with a greater sense of urgency, Vlys leaves you wanting more.
Italian-born, Berlin-based duo Mind Against need limited introduction to anyone familiar with their music for Afterlife or Life And Death. These guys rarely provide remixes ... when they do, the output is always something special as witnessed on their recent Celestial Dub of SCB’s ‘Test Tubes’. We are privileged to welcome them to the ATLANT family.
Alessandro and Federico have delivered a true masterpiece with a deep dark groove gently underpinned by echoed crashes and atmospheric arps, as the vocal enters. A masterclass in drama, Mind Against accentuate every breath and lyric before a subtle deep bass drop increases the tension, letting ‘Horse’ run wild into a swirling arpeggiated crescendo that temporarily disorientates the listener, however Haptic’s vocal is always there to lead you home.
It is a complete pleasure to have BOg’s long time collaborator and good friend in the supremely talented Tim Engelhardt onboard. Tim’s Horse update subtly emphasises all of the key elements of the original, while increasing the dramatic orchestration, making the bass pulse and enveloping the lyrics in swathes of cinematic melodies as a sustained synth buzz and beautiful piano lines add incredible emotion. There is a purity and real beauty here.
The EP closes courtesy of the Peter Pardeike [Connaisseur | Innervisions] who builds on core events of the original to create a rich sonic tapestry perfect suited for unforgettable club moments. Peter’s teasing use of the vocal and extended breakdown raise a heightened sense of anticipation before whirring synths simmer and explode, with new melodies creating a sense of euphoria. Absolute perfection.
