Roswell Brothers Feat. Nyx - Closed World (Chinosynth Remix)

Blindfold EP David Ponziano
PNRS005

Destination Madrid: Penrose Records founder David Ponziano returns to the controls with two high voltage originals and remixes from Alvaro Cabana & Julian Sanza and Undo…

‘Blindfold’ taps into a vibrant, poppy, synth-heavy sound. Sitting somewhere between Kraftwerk and Underworld with an added vocal call to action, this pushes all the right buttons with an unrelenting groove and strong sense of triumph running throughout. Remix-wise these elements are flipped into a deep cosmic chug as 2020 Soundsystem / Silver City maverick Julian Sanza and Holographic Planes’ Alvaro Cabana go dark mode with an absurdly powerful and heady workout. 

The work continues with ‘Where You From?’ A dramatic slab of bleep-fuelled tech that’s reminiscent of the mid 90s German Tresor sound. Rising and rising with tension and just the right amount of theatre, this one asks all the right questions and your dancefloor will guarantee a reaction. 

For a deeper perspective head to Undo’s remix. A foreboding and stern take that nods to the legacy of Black Strobe, this one pulsates with tension as we march into the future. It’s a reminder that things aren’t always about where we’re from… It’s about where we’re heading.

We are preparing to close the year.
La ControllaBanda, presents MEXTAPE Remixes VOL 2.
We have selected two remixes of the original “Viaja Volaras” by Ali X X Ximena. The first, appropriated by Roliva, has turned his reversion into a catchy hit, with acid touches,
without losing he’s electrorock foundations. Wow, no doubt we will hear this track playing in various parts of the world. He has chosen a very significant part of the vocal, where he utters “Fumó porro y me enamoro” (I smoke joints & I fall in love) sticky gggggg.
And secondly, one of our most efficient producers, Vleks, also with “Viaja Volaras”. Whenever we sing Vleks material, he surprises us, again and again, so this time we have it
with a version for the dance floor, which is a fire.

Taken from "VA - Oddness Vol. III EP (Bonkers)". Out February 10th 2023. Buy here : https://bonkersrecs.bandcamp.com/album/oddness-vol-iii

Starting the year with our VA series “Oddness” loaded with more weirdness and rarities. For Volume III we have on board a bunch of new and outstanding artists such as: Nick Hanzo & das molekuel, JGR, Ruksby, Second Gate and Ambrosia.
With “das molekuel” Belly Dance Services mastermind Nick Hanzo and his partner Geraldine have the goal to let molecules sparkle through electrifying music. Their new track 'Blaetterwald' is like a leave that gently starts to dance through marvelous Indie Dance lands, followed by gentle pirouettes until finally turning into wind like energy that never stops moving.
JGR (Julián García-Reyes) makes his Bonkers debut with 'Awaken'. The Chilean producer and DJ based in Madrid brings us a track that mixes elements ranging from new wave to electro, combined with nostalgic melodies that recall musical landscapes from the second half of the 80's.
Rising producer from Moscow Ruksby presents 'Numeros' it will fill you with a signature groove, a little dark, but not evil, at medium speeds, with a pinch of brutality and notes of decadence.
Inspired by the heat of the Mexican desert, barb wire and rusted walls, Second Gate delivers 'Frontera' his artistic vision of a hostile environment through synth stabs, powerful basslines and a creeping ambiance made out of live samples and granular synthesis. This one’s an EBM Monster designed to bring chaotic energy and a psychedelic feel to any dance floor it is played in.
Closing the VA, rising from the Pacific of Mexico, Ambrosia is the artistic name of Alexis Ramírez, an electronic music artist from Puerto Vallarta. He delivers 'Into Your Soul' with a dark touch and a hypnotic sequence, with flashes of melancholic overtones, ideal for opening the dance floor, with this track we conclude our third edition of Oddness.
Enjoy the trip!

VA - Oddness Vol. III

Frontera (Original Mix)

PREMIERE : Second Gate - Frontera (Original Mix) (Bonkers)

It has been a while since Silicodisco’s previous appearance on Espacio Cielo: on the occasion, he teamed up with Italian virtuoso Futuristant (SXDNS353/FREEDL042) to deliver a powerful cosmic-infused cut for the volume 2 of “The Sky Sampler” series. Since then, the acclaimed Spanish producer had his works published on respected labels such as Critical Monday, Quixotical, Roam, Aeon, Rotten City, and Slow Cycle, resulting in even more recognition for his solid career amid the dark side of music.

For his return on Espacio, he brings to life two oh-yeah-baby-right-there originals, one in collaboration with the rising Argentinean artist Abby Knives (SXDNS299), and invited none other than Vhyce and Jesu Aparicio, the label boss himself, for the remix duties.

Premiered here, Silicodisco’s “Miami” is not a track that would pair with a pool party at the sunny “Magic City”. Its intensity and turbulence do not go well with mojitos or fancy cocktails. No. Dark dance floors are the natural habitat of this beast and its frenzied synth layers, laser-like effects, and sort of menacing aura. 

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label: https://www.beatport.com/label/espacio-cielo/83251

Mélopée Records unveil “Presente Ausente,” an Italo/Dark Disco collaboration by Silicodisco & Alex Aguayo.

Silicodisco and Alex Aguayo,
Danced in a Cabina A Marte glow.
With beats so wild in the Original Mix,
They joined the party in a rhythmic fix.

Melopee Records set the scene,
Where grooves and melodies careened.
In a world of sounds so sweet and neat,
They danced to the rhythm of the street.

So let the Silicodisco lights ignite,
With Alex Aguayo, a musical flight.
Cabina A Marte, they ventured afar,
In the Melopee realm, where wonders are.

TITAN - FRENCH HOUSE INSTRUMENTAL DJ (32)

Incisive and breathtaking, David Ponziano is a Madrilenian artist, who radiates personality inside and outside the DJ booth. This is precisely his trump card, the one that gives him the winning hand in his moves. He has the club in his veins, many hours of experience behind him, a wide vision and few prejudices. These virtues make it hard to resist his musical assaults and the public in his habitual residences, at parties such as Replay, Reclub or Motel, is well aware of that.
 
His sessions are constructive, formed by musical lines that diversify and combine to build a union of sounds that can range between disco, house, deep, techno or acid, without losing coherence within the musical discourse. He is definitely an old school DJ, one of those who knows what he is doing and enjoys dancing and feeling the beat.
 
The preamble of his relationship with electronic music comes from the mid-90s, when the last gasps of EBM and new wave conquered his heart to the rhythm of sharp bases, aggressive guitars and rough synths. From those days to the present time the paths have been many and diverse, reaching their peak and acquiring sense in the mid-2000s, when he began to release his first music publications under the pseudonym Play The Game. In the meantime, he studies sound engineering and launches his own mixing and mastering studio, Peak Studio. Nowadays and after several and successful adventures as a promoter in other brands like MOTEL, he is running his own club: HALLEY.
 
His career as DJ and producer is acquiring greater dimensions day by day with releases on labels like Alma Soul Music, Lust Recordings, Cuatro Records or Parallel, as well as with remixes for artists like Alexi Delano, Matthias Vogt (Motorcitysoul), Julian Sanza or Boghosian & Torquato and with his active residences in Replay and Reclub. In brief, the last four years have been very intense, enabling him to be positioned as one of the most active and popular artists in Madrid's underground scene.
