Electronique are back with another heavy hitting EP featuring one of the most consistent and standout producers in recent years, fused with fresh up coming talent from Denmark together Tapesh & KANT bring us their exclusive debut collaboration, Talking Dirty EP. Lead track Talking Dirty is a full on! deep groover with a combination of powerful synths and rising strings accompanied with a deep low slung bass for the perfect summer groove backed with a tougher more stripped back remix from Berlin based duo Mat.Joe. Next up is Ey Yo with it's cheeky sample repeated throughout the track, profound chord fusion coupled with an epic synth line and deep rhythm's. KANT rounds off the EP with Always taking a much more a laid back approach with soulful and warm sounds showing a completely different side to the duo's musical abilities. Guaranteed to be rocking the summer dancefloors there's something for everyone across these 3 infectious cuts.

As a member of the infamous CUFF team Shiba San has become synonymous with that rugged, ghetto sound that represents CUFF and its owners Amine Edge & DANCE. Shiba comes from Paris (of course) where hip-hop was a strong influence to begin with, and that sound permeates through into the music he makes now with vocals and rough beats galore. His track "Okay" on dirtybird is killing it right now, and has been touted by many as one of the anthems of the summer. No doubt you'll hear it more than once at We Are FSTVL. It's going to be one hell of a party and this mix should get you in the mood.

Hit play and get your front room bouncing!

<a href="https://www.facebook.com/tendergames">Tender Games </a> are the illusive Berlin-based duo that make music with a broad spectrum of influence from house and techno to smooth R&B. Their latest release, In A Mess, out via Suol, mixes new-age electronic pop with notes of house and garage, with Dale Howard stepping in to give the track a serious deep house makeover. Getting rid of the gloss and replacing it with a classic, dangerous Dale bassline, tuck into this remix of In A Mess.

DJ Maxxi (Radio Slave) - Disco Energia Mix

Juan Mendez, a guy who’s much better known as Silent Servant, is the brains behind some of the most creatively presented music today. His first major rise to prominence was as part of Sandwell District and as well as lending sonics to the mix, his main thing was providing the art direction and that particular aesthetic that really helped Sandwell District reach the level of iconic status that it did. It's been well documented that the project was drawn to a close last year with the fabric 69 mix turning into its swansong, so as the massive fans we are, we were always going to be in the wings with baited breath waiting for news on what any of collective's next ventures would be. 

Well, back in 2013, Jealous God was born; a project creatively backed not only by Mendez but also by James Ruskin and Regis, who of course was another contingent of Sandwell District. And much like Sandwell, over its six releases to date, Jealous God has not only instilled a thought provoking aesthetic from out of the musical contents of the records but the art has also become deeply rooted as the mode of the label’s presentation, creating another beacon for brutal yet brooding techno. 

It's quite right then that we have invited the label to host a night here in Room Two on Saturday 20th September and to represent exactly what Jealous God stands for sonically, Silent Servant has stepped up to deliver an exclusively recorded mix featuring a wealth of Jealous God output...

Guest Mix 24 comes from Serial Experiments !! 

They have been responsible for some fantastic mixes on their show and are also involved in the label/blog/radio Why People Dance as well ! 

A little bit about them :

Serial Experiments started in early 2014, with one hour shows, called "layers", later joined forces with whypeopledance, and became a part of their project. Now typically happening every week, two hours per layer or more, with guest mixes from legends in the scene like Headman, Laurent Pastor or Timothy J Fairplay, to talented newcomers Paresse or id!r.

Genre or popularity does not matter here - vision and creativity does.
Every layer of Serial Experiments is divergent, concerns different themes and contains different music

Guest Mix 24 - Serial Experiments

http://www.junodownload.com/products/bryan-ferry-avonmore-the-remix-album-deluxe/3165021-02/

Bryan Ferry’s most recent musical odyssey came in the form of 2014’s critically acclaimed
Avonmore album, now the LP gets some very special remix treatment by a connoisseur selection
of disco artists from around the globe. The celebrated and taste-making likes of Leo Zero, Ray Mang, Prins
Thomas, Justin Robertson, Leftside Wobble, Idjut Boys, Man Power and many more all lend their
well trained ears and serve up some sizzling new versions of the superb originals.

Bryan Ferry is one of the UK’s foremost singer songwriters, a pop artist and musician whose
appeal has spanned five decades. With his elegant virtuoso performances as the
front man Roxy Music, and his subsequent illustrious solo career Ferry has achieved numerous
accolades and has been a great source of influence and inspiration for
ensuing generations of musicians. As such, a project like this allows some of these established and rising talents the
unique opportunity to add their own spin to Ferry’s singular style.

A broad palette of sounds, scenes and genres are traversed along the course of this absorbing
collection. It kicks off in style with two different versions of ‘Loop Di Li’. Leo Zero’s take is sun-kissed and breezy, 
with trilling riffs and sweeping synths. UK disco don Ray Mang then offers a
more pumping, groove driven effort that wraps Ferry’s unique vocals up in neo-Balearic cool.
Next up, the marvellous ‘Midnight Train’ is offered as a late night and romantic affair by Johnson
Somerset, a cosmic chugger by Man Power and a characteristically left of centre house version
by the inimitable Idjut Boys, famed for being remix kings.

Fans of dubbed out and slo-motion disco will love the brilliant Beard of Concern mix of ‘Soldier of
Fortune,’ before five fascinating versions of ‘Driving Me Wild’ take in lush 80s nostalgia,
swaggering dub, mechanical psychedelic disco, horizontal grooves and elastic kosmiche from
Johnson Somerset, Leftside Wobble, Justin Roberton’s Deadstock 33s, Leo Zero and Ray Mang
respectively.

The latter half of the album finds nu-disco pioneer Prins Thomas masterfully flip the title track into
a broody affair with corrugated bass and tense, scintillating synth lines, whilst PBR Streetgang
work ‘One Night Stand’ into a deep and synthetic disco bomb that will have dance-floors in
raptures. Elsewhere, Idjut Boys, Ray Mang, Leo Zero, Johnson Somerset offer more expert reworks.
Ambient Pioneer Ulrich Schnauss has the coveted task of adapting ‘Johnny & Mary’, Ferry’s timeless collaboration with Norwegian man of the moment Todd Terje.
Hidden Orchestra layer grand instrumentals and sweeping strings into a dramatic and theatrical
remix of ‘Send in the Clowns.’ Leftside Wobble is then left to bring us back down to earth with an
intoxicating brew of molten synths, woozy chords and smeared pads that sooth mind, body and
soul.

The rich source material here, along with the wealth of stars chosen to remix it, all make for
another fascinating chapter in the life of one of the UK’s most cherished artists.

DANZ 05 ::: Mixed by DEATH BY REPETITION

Interview: http://truantsblog.com/2015/truancy-volume-129-bicep/

Soundcloud: @feelmybicep

Today’s Truancy Volume comes from our favourites AKA the boys behind Bicep. We first heard of Andy Ferguson and Matt McBriar a few years ago through their very own blog Feel My Bicep, and they have been two of our top selectors ever since. Seeing the London-via-Belfast duo establish themselves as some of the most captivating DJs and producers around has been a joy to witness – the likes of “Silk” (‘11), Satisfy (‘13) and Circles (‘14) still being as popular as ever round Truants’ way. Their recent schedule also speaks volumes about their current thrive and popularity among listeners across the board, comfortably delving between house, techno and disco whilst also having plenty of time for Bollywood soundtracks, atmospheric drum and bass and new age ambient music in their downtime. Following a limited 12” for their XOYO residency and their Just EP on Aus Music, they’ve just released the mighty Dahlia EP in collaboration with fellow producer and long-time friend Hammer. Gerd Janson also recently enlisted them to contribute to his Musik For Autobahns 2 compilation, with their sublime track entitled “Carmine” and you can also look out for a track called "Closing Sequence" forthcoming on 50 Weapons as part of the label's final run of releases. 

Having carved up such a reputation for themselves, it was no wonder Bicep were asked to lead a residency at London’s XOYO over this year's summer period: they just finished their 13-week workout last Saturday, which consisted of a strong curated roster including the likes of Derrick May, The Black Madonna, Palms Trax and Space Dimension Controller. The two have an equally crazy agenda coming up: from their next Feel My Bicep night at Amsterdam Dance Event featuring the likes of Midland, Optimo and Sandrien as well as their next Australia/NZ tour.

The pair has unquestionably been responsible for some of our fondest music-related memories over the years: from sunny afternoons at Dekmantel and ZeeZout, to getting caught by surprise by means of their Dominica edit at other festivals. Their final instalment at XOYO was also one for the books – going from “Just” to Art Crime and Devilfish in proper confetti-canon style fashion. Featuring recent tracks from Mikael Seifu and Dawit Eklund to 2000 era house from Joshua Iz, we’re thrilled to share Bicep’s mix for Truants with you. Equally as uplifting as it is danceable, it is more importantly 100% Bicep vibes. We also spoke to Andy and Matt about their creative processes on both a musical and visual level, what music from beyond the dancefloor they’re currently loving, and their upcoming album.

JG Wilkes: Music To... Music To Be Seen And Not Heard

RAY KEITH--HYSTERIA & PURE X - GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH VOL 2 15.10.1994

Just a few years ago, Daniel Avery emerged from a famous Scrutton Street studio where the likes of Andrew Weatherall and Timothy J FairPlay were regulars. Since then, he has gone his own way, releasing a machine made, proudly analogue brand of indie-electro-techno-dance music that has come mostly on Errol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound label. Mixing dark beats with dense and smoky synth atmospheres as both a DJ and producer, he knows how to cook up a metallic and menacing groove with aplomb. After impressing with his debut album, Drone Logic, in 2013, we're proud to invite him to this year's Lente Kabinet, Dekmantel Festival (together with Roman Flügel), and our mix series. 

The fabric resident kicks off his mix with some heady drones and deep, spacious grooves that are eerie and unsettling. The next 90 odd minutes sees him blend sublime acid, slithering synths and increasingly minimal techno into a seductive set that is expertly paced and seamlessly mixed. Perfect for the dead of night in some intimate back room, it shows a heady and atmospheric side to Avery that is truly compelling.
