[DHB067] Best of 2023

Two titans of the electronic scene, @D-Nox & @StereoUnderground deliver two new gems.

After the hit single „Dolby“ on Einmusika, both artists are back with their next EP titled, “Gruuve.”

The lead track is a melodic deep groover that starts to get all wobbly and freaky, as the real filthiness and energy unfolds. Big and Bold!

And the second track 'Creativity' is more stripped back with spoken word. It’s techno slanted flavours are released before some nasty bass vibes flow… it packs a real punch!

Germany's D-Nox, one half of D-Nox & Beckers, runs his own Sprout record label while touring heavily as a solo DJ. His music has graced other big labels such as Selador and Stil Vor Talent to name a few. 

Stereo Underground, a leading figure in the Israeli new school techno sound runs Tel Aviv's BPM College, while releasing on Einmusika, Lost & Found, UV and Sprout.

JJ's 909 Challenge 2022

Next up for Desert Hearts Black comes a transatlantic meeting of minds in the form of ‘Fade’ by heavy hitters John Monkman & Rinzen. 

As two artists with solo careers already in high gear, John and Rinzen have been in each other's orbits for a number of years via remixes and mutual collaborators. This marks their first track together - and what a debut it is! 

John is signed to a number of great imprints including Kompakt, Ellum and Last Night On Earth, and with a Beatport #1 and the endorsement of the scene’s elite behind him, he debuted his new live show at none other than Coachella Festival in 2018 wowing the critics in the process. 

Rinzen is a product of the burgeoning LA dance scene. Breaking out in 2017, he’s quickly established himself with releases on labels like Bedrock, Oddity and Factory93. Widely described as having an otherworldly sound, his unique soundtrack has delighted fans around the world at shows as diverse as Printworks (London), Stereo (Montreal) and beyond. 

Aimed squarely at the peak time, ‘Fade’ launches into life from the first beat. Techy percussion and synth washes marry with the killer drums for instant impact. Melodies up the ante - creating a sense of dancefloor euphoria from the first drop. Growing throughout the track, the tension is finally lifted with rich vocals delivered by Monkman, leading to an emphatic finale. An anthemic journey that will delight clubland all through 2023.

LDS / LFV

Severi Laine - LFV (feat. Corydon)

Ardalan joins Desert Hearts Black with three acid-tinged dancefloor destroyers, assisted by the very talented Kill Frenzy. 

Born in Tehran, Iran, Ardalan Noghre-Kar possesses a unique and fresh perspective on music. His mixes, remixes, and dubs are known for their sass, energy and wickedly wry samples, but his original tracks are where his efforts shine. Signed to Dirtybird, and Pets Recordings to name a few, Ardalan has been a staple in this industry for quite some time.

“In such a fast-paced, ever-evolving world, I wanted to highlight how important it is to drown out the noise sometimes and return to humanity.” Ardalan says, “This EP dives into the realm of a fictional dystopian and apocalyptic world that could very well become our reality if we don't take action.”

First up, ‘Ruby & The Fish’ opens his account with wavy robotic percussions and a huge low end. The EBM inspired warehouse drums and wild builds transform the light and dark sections equally with energy and transcendental dread. Next, fellow Dirtybird Kill Frenzy collaborates on ‘Paravision’ a moody acid raver full of dark intent for those late hour heads down stompathons we all love. Icy sonics and spiky percussions juxtapose the squelchy acid with aplomb. Finally, ‘The Maniac’ rounds out the EP. Written to express the struggles ‘to be human in a society that is overtaken by AI and technology’, the dark warehouse drums and acid nuance is subtly transcended by warm pads and heartening vocals. Like a Vengelis soundtrack for modern times, it’s utterly spell-binding. 

I was really inspired by the sound and music of movie scores from the 80s. Especially Vengelis from Blade Runner. Using a modern gear like the Deckard’s Dream (Inspired by the Yamaha CS80 synthesizer), I was really able to add cinamatic sequences and melody’s to give it a bit of soul and emotion; human.” - Ardalan

Vasco Henrotin aka "Ocsav" is a young Belgian producer from Namur. His passion for electronic music dates back to the time that he heard for the first time the biggest Vitalic's hit "No fun". Thanks to his brother he widened his musical knowledge and discovered the famous "French Touch" with international dj's like Justice or Etienne de Crecy. Afterwards he headed to more Tech House and Deep House vibes also with famous dj's such as KiNK, Kolombo or Marc Romboy. With friends, he started playing at small parties. The envy of producing tracks came little by little. So when he was 16 he started attending electronic music lessons with the talented Deep House producer Ginoblay. Over the years, he's gained the support from the likes of Fatboy Slim, Benny Benassi, Mason, Don Rimini, LouLou Players, Flashmob, Mz Worthy, Gorgon City, CODES, Lauren Flax, Hiroko Yamamura, Maximono, Kevin Knapp, and many more.

Berlin’s first lady, Anja Schneider, remixes Marbs’ recent hit record, ‘Whitefence’ 

Everyone has their origin story, Anja’s begins with the legendary club, Tresor. After a magical first experience and an epiphany that Techno could be her life’s journey, Anja moved to Berlin and set out to make her dreams come true. Some 30 years later, she has achieved more than she could ever imagine. A DJ throughout the ‘90s, she opened her production portfolio in 2005 with a Sebo K collaboration on her new imprint, Mobilee, a label which would become seminal. After 12 years at the helm, she launched her new venture SoUs and continues to push a warm, richly musical, tech sound. 

For her remix, Anja strips the original back to basics and injects a a ton of funk. Opening with wonky fx and a tough kick, subtle disco bass and vocal ad libs keep it groovy, baby. Riding the automation, the bassline mutates and envigorates to the break where a moment of calm is broken by a dancefloor of happy clubbers dancing their troubles away. A classic sound from the queen of clubland!

Marbs - Whitefence (Anja Schneider Remix)

Something of a musical savant, Argentinian maestro Martin has been honing his craft since the tender age of 15. Now signed to some incredible labels including Infinite Depth, Sinners and Steyoyoke, his deep melodies and dark sound is quickly finding favour with the global DJ elite. 

‘They Won’t Be There’ is a glorious drumwork out that just gets better and better. Melodic swells unleash the energy midway, where the track explodes into life. ‘Arritmia’ explodes from the speakers from the off. A sleepy giant to start with, it wakes up with melancholic fury and emotive rapture. Spiky synths marry orchestral pads for a wondrous late night wig-out. Equally, 

On remix duties are two artists with worldwide weight and name. Analog Context toughens up ‘Arritmia’ for the main room floor with a thunderous low end and stripped back percussive framework. Axel Haube drops a four to the floor beat and focuses on the rich tapestry of melodics for a darker late night groove.

Martin Dubiansky - They Won't Be There (Axel Haube Remix)

Desert Hearts Black label boss Marbs is rounding off this wild year with a very special treat. When we think about 2023, it's been a year filled with highs and lows, good and bad. So what better way to end the year than with a tune that is not only capable of bringing out massive emotions on the dance floor, but also gives room for reflection? We know Marbs as a musical butterfly, making music that defies genre classification. "The Devil's Love" is Marbs in a brand new suit, something you have never heard from him before.

In "The Devil's Love", Marbs creates a transcendental atmosphere with an elegant piano and goosebump inducing vocals that smoothly draw us into the realm of breaks. A heavy bass sets in and together with the energetic groove it provides a powerful core, while keeping enough space for the intricate percussive elements. The track exceeds everything you thought you knew about Marbs, making it the perfect end to one year and the start of another.

Marbs - The Devil's Love (Original Mix)

Introducing our new sub-label, Desert Hearts Black. Remaining true to the values of our Desert Hearts Family and born from the minds of Marbs & Evan Casey, our new imprint aims to add another dimension of musicality to our ever-expanding movement of love. Focusing on heavier sounds, musical exploration, and the depths of late nights and early mornings, Desert Hearts Black has been set in motion to project the endless internal journey onto all of those willing to dig deeper. House, TECHNO, & Love… We Are All Desert Hearts.
