Volantis, brain of Milan-based label Alzaya and lover of nostalgic balearic and electronica vibes. This is exactly what he came up with on Foule Contact. An uncompromising and escalating piece, with an awesome 4x4 club-dedicated rhythm.

Foule Contact is about freeing ourselves from barriers and finding ourselves together, through music in its more profound way. Going from the virtual world to real-life and connect all together in each and every one of those tracks. Foule Contact is the idea that the current atmosphere won’t last forever, and that we already expect our reunion, cradled with tenderness and all the energy accumulated over the last few months.
This compilation is about 15 eclectic and danceable tracks. Gathering a broad spectrum of genres that animate us, from House to Italo-Disco, Afro cosmic or Leftfield.

Two seasoned French DJs/producers team up in a Parisian studio for a vibrant alliance destined at the more elusive dancefloors - vous avez dit disco noir?
Long-time chums Jerry Bouthier and Julien Plaisir de France met at the beginnings of rave and forged an enduring friendship based on mutual artistic respect as well as a fondness for absurd humour and all things 80s. Both went on to define their own path whilst regularly contemplating working together on a project, alas to no avail. Until recently when, on a whim, they cracked open the champagne in the studio, let the jokes flow and finally got down to it. Created on vintage tools, fat synths and classic drum machines ‘Eccitatissimo’ (the clue is in the name) throws hypnotic basslines, chorus guitars and frantic effects into the mix; a 120 BPM peak-time banger that pushes the right buttons, groovy yet trance-like with spaced-out breakdown. 
Balearic player of the early Parisian rave/house scene (with late brother Tom), long since relocated to London, Jerry Bouthier eventually joined the dots between dancefloor and fashion as he became DJ stalwart of the Kitsuné label/clothing brand (owned by Daft Punk’s manager), touring around the world on the back of his residency at infamous London club BoomBox; whilst simultaneously maturing as diligent sound-designer for the fashion world (Vivienne Westwood etc), a craft - characterising moods - tailor-made for Jerry. Over the years he has created hundreds of soundtracks for the catwalks of London, Paris, Milan, NY and deejayed at the parties of some of fashion’s biggest names, yet still relishes his me time in the studio looking for the perfect beat/melody.
Having learnt the bass in his teens in the aim of joining his mates’ band, Julien Plaisir de France quickly caught the electronic bug, released his first 12”s on seminal Parisian house label Pro-Zak Trax and soon scored a club smash under his Sweet Light moniker with electro monster ‘Abusator’ (championed by 2 Many DJs, Tiga, Ivan Smaghe…). He renamed himself Plaisir de France and became a reference on the edit scene breathing new life in plethora of classics. Julien has just rounded off twenty years of music-making with the release of his debut album '#20’ celebrating timeless French electronic pop with the help of a motley bunch of stand-out vocalists and his own personal gallic twist. Still, true to himself, he remains a generous, eternally enthusiastic dj.
Jerry Bouthier: “We both love the original new wave/post-punk of yore, the sound of NY clubs such as Mud Club, Danceteria etc, when electronic instruments started to infiltrate studios and dancefloors. Futuristic music to dance to - obviously fed by disco - but also packed with attitude and interesting new sounds. A landmark in time… With Julien our musical trajectories crossed again thanks to the current dark disco thump that harps back to that golden era, it was the perfect moment to combine our inspirations and contribute to this scene that keeps on pushing the limits… A good occasion to spend time with Julien who makes you look at life with a smile, priceless!"
Julien Plaisir de France: “Sure, ‘Eccitatissimo’ is all about dancing… from the past to the future, from maximal to minimal! Jerry and I go a long way, our friendship has lived through various eras and music styles. We may share an appreciation for bands, our roots I guess. Our initial bond stems from having succumbed early on to the drive of the synthetic beat though. We never fail to value powerful ideas or inspired musicianship, hence the logic of combining our skills - my tendency to let sonic concepts run wild and Jerry’s no nonsense study of what makes bodies move - in order to deliver fresh, effective tracks.”

PREMIERE: Super Drama - JMNTK [Super Drama Records]

We are proud to present the second album by 291outer space, the electronic side project of the well-know italian jazz-funk band 291out alongside sound engineer Ivan “Flyme” Cibien.

This new work plays tribute to a variety of legends of Kosmische Muzik and Sci-Fi world (among all, Vangelis, Shulze, Jarre, Parson, Moroder, Carpenter) re-imagining the sound in a contemporary key, therefore tradition and innovation are united in the search for a future’s Disco that is utterly to be discovered yet.
Clean drums, insistent bass-lines, spacey synthesizers and a lonely guitar compose a mistyc release enriched by an ethereal voice and shimmering flutes. The homeland musical heritage of the group definitely soaks the album with a distinctive groove alongside the oniric beatless moments.

*The track which opens and closes the disc in its two different arrangements, "Transcendence Rain Forest", is a
poetic and philosophical interpretation of the origin of humanity and the ultimate meaning of life, an invitation to flee from our uncertain destiny and apocalyptic post-pandemic present to reconnect with the cosmic flow of the planet. A resounding exhortation to go “beyond” the here and now.

Ruvido Records is happy to share with you their latest release - a 2 tracker Various Artist titled “Taac Attack - Yndian Gibolly”. 
“Taac Attack” by Ruvido Records’ head honcho Cristian Croce and Sapo (owner of the Milan based label Mad on the Moon), is a playful, jacking Chicago House inspired cut with heavy distorted vocal loops and samples. 
The Cristian Croce edit of “Yndian Gibolly” by the mysterious duo Fabbrio & Giara is a distorted, arpeggio-heavy cut that might sound something like a Hieroglyphic Being remix of “Lata Ramasar – The Greatest Name That Lives”.

“White Valley” flows like a journey through wide horizons — steady house rhythms layered with immersive textures and subtle energy shifts. It’s a track that invites you to lose yourself in the pulse, yet find clarity in the space between the beats. Minimal yet profound, it’s a soundscape that feels both grounding and expansive
