Melodic Techno 24

Erase Me

Italian duo Agents Of Time have been incredibly busy over the past few years, from releasing a string of classic singles – including their recent single for Afterlife, “The Mirage”, which earned more than five million views on Instagram – to remixing The Weeknd’s “Take My Breath”, which appeared on his recent Dawn FM (Alternative World). But the biggest news is here now – their second album, Universo, is ready. Elevating their trademark melodic techno with an exquisite pop-ness, Universo has found its ideal home with Kompakt, following their Music Made Paradise 2020 debut EP for the label. It’s a meeting of minds that makes perfect sense.

Andrea Di Ceglie and Luigi Tutolo, the two members of Agents Of Time, used their time during the pandemic to work on Universo, an album loosely conceptualised around their ‘personal universo’, a manifestation of the world Di Ceglie and Tutolo built both within and around their studio. This accounts for the sparkle and brightness of Universo – it’s full of personality, vim and vigour, the duo experimenting with their music, exploring its furthest corners. If you come to Universo expecting just another album of melodic techno, get ready to be pleasantly surprised – there’s a whole lot more going on here, and it’s all equally compelling.

After a typically poetic opening gesture – the swirling, synaesthetic, self-titled intro track – expectations are immediately blindsided with the two-step pop of “Fallin’”, sung with gentle clarity by guest Audrey Janssens, a dream of a song that harks back to the glory days of early ‘00s UK garage. “Interstellar Cowboy” is a confident, lithe, disco-fied strut; the gentle minor-key piano of “Liquid Fantasy” spirals into a gorgeously melancholy techno-pop epic, Vicky Who?’s voice rich with yearning. Janssens also reappears on the electro-swirl of “Poison”; “Dream Vision” revisits their single “The Mirage”, soft with sweeping strings, loaded with drama; “Part Of Life” sashays into view with a schaffel-stomp.

This rich variety throws the more dancefloor-focused tracks, like “Ciao”, into even starker relief – they’re more decisive, streamlined, yet rich with detail, chugging, Moroder-esque bass meeting strobe-lit synths that fire melodies out into the firmament. Universo feels texturally dense, but it still breathes, its sounds so tactile you want to reach out and grab them, its tunes so seductive you can’t get them out of your head. Universo is a fiercely beautiful album, brave in its spirit, a perfectly poised meeting-point of pop melody and stylish, lush techno: Agents Of Time in excelsis.

Hey melodic lovers!

Free With Me - Nic Rumi

Many of you have requested the full version of "Electronic Soul" - my original track inspired by the iconic @Bjork and her interview about the soul in electronic music! (part of the interview is also part of the track video).

The famous quote from Bjork during her interview "If there's not soul in the music, it's because nobody put it there" has inspired me to create this track!

The message is that we are the heart & soul of the electronic music.

Release Info:
[Awen Records], a prominent figure in the electronic music industry, is thrilled to unveil an exciting release under the reference [Awen206], featuring the talented artist Aquarius Ezra. This EP titled "Connections" brings forth two captivating tracks: "Connections" and "No Reason," taking listeners on an unparalleled sonic journey. Aquarius Ezra, a prodigious 20-year-old producer, DJ, and vocalist hailing from Hungary, is on a quest to define his unique style within the realm of Melodic Techno. His continuous experimentation with new sounds and production methods sets him apart. With 7 years of electronic music production experience, Ezra has been releasing his music on multiple worldwide labels since 2021. In this EP, Aquarius Ezra aimed to create a sound that departs from his previous experimental work. The intention was to craft tracks with an industry-standard sound to ensure they resonate with the right audience and inspire dancing wherever the music is heard. The artist draws inspiration from the modern sound of Anyma and Massano from Afterlife. When creating music, Aquarius Ezra firmly believes in maintaining creative flow, avoiding wasteful hours in the studio. Consequently, analog equipment is eschewed, and all production is conducted in-the-box for efficiency. This approach results in spending no more than 8-10 hours on a track from inception to mix, a key element that enables sustained creative flow. "Connections" is a track that gradually builds, introducing an uplifting synth in the break that transports listeners to another world, before culminating in a dynamic explosion. The heavy lead sound and bassline ignite the party atmosphere. On the other hand, "No Reason" serves as a club anthem, characterized by its heavy bassline, contemporary sound design, and the perfect melodic techno groove that compels dancing.

My debut Album "THE BELONGING" is out now. A collective experienced catharsis. The process of releasing, and providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions.

As personal crises are part of life, we want to go through this journey collectively, from a silent, burned out state of ‘Where do we belong?’ Together, we will go forward forever through all the insanity until the certainty that ‘We belong here!’ as each track charts a step away from crisis, towards this feeling of belonging.

Innellea & CamelPhat - Shelter feat. Monolink (ALBUM OUT NOW)

Beginning with ‘Follow the Signal’ Elias puts a firm focus on the dance floor which sets the tone for the EP. Full of rejuvenating energies, the Montreal resident expertly blends robust kick drums and electric grooves with crunchy rhythms and orbiting effects. Roboticized vocals steal the air leading into the break, casting a darker monochrome over the journey, before a sensory expanding build cues a rush of main room alchemy.

After the success of Powers of Ten, Stephan Bodzin's latest and greatest full length, the German tastemaker has now invited a key selection of artists to remix tracks from it. This great collection will be released digitally—with two bonus remixes by Super Flu and Marc Romboy—as well as on vinyl on the 18th December 2015. The original album came in June on Bodzin's own Herzblut Recordings and was a hugely personal affair that has been played far and wide by DJs and danced to by clubbers all over the world. Now breathing fresh life and different perspectives into the original source material are the likes of big name stars Maceo Plex & Shall Ochin, Fur Coat, Extrawelt, long time musical sparring partner Marc Romboy, Pan Pot, Max Cooper, Agents of Time, Dominik Eulberg and many more. Things kick off with Ellum Audio boss Maceo Plex and Shall Ocin, who flip 'Powers of Ten' into a serene and slow burning track full of spiritual synth lines and heavenly pads, before Spanish pair Edu Imbernon and Coyu work their magic on 'Wir' and reimagine it as a sumptuous and slow burning tech track with a droning baseline and cosmic melodies. Influential Crosstown Rebels act Fur Coat then tackle 'Singularity' and cook up a brooding, elongated main room track that locks you into its groove and never lets you go. Next, long time Bodzin collaborator and friend Marc Romboy makes 'Ix' into a tense tech tool that balances on a knife edge as menacing bass roams and rolls below. From there, Cocoon team and live specialists Extrawelt makes 'Blue Giant' into a spooky minimal cut that is full of haunting atmosphere, festival headlining Second State pair Pan-Pot then offer lots of tense groove and sombre machine melodies on their version of 'Zulu.' In the second half there are dark remixes from Max Cooper, intense synth jams from Agents of Time, typically beautiful and musical offerings from Dominik Eulberg, tripped out techno rollers from Gabriel Ananda and two digital only remixes of 'Birth' that are deep and inviting from Super Flu and clean, reflective and soothing from Marc Romboy. Monoloc also comes up with the goods on his deep and dubby remix of 'Singularity'. This collection plays out almost like a mix, taking you up and down and through many different styles of electronic music, each as absorbing and essential as the next, and that's all thanks to the on point and informed A&R of label boss Stephan Bodzin.

About:

Different Stage is the project created by Vinícius da Luz, a DJ and music producer hailing from the northern region of Brazil. Since 2012, Vinícius has been building his path in the electronic music scene, shaped by a rich diversity of musical influences. His passion for electronic music inspired him to produce his own tracks, culminating in the launch of the Different Stage project in 2019.

With a distinctive sound that blends progressive house and melodic house, Different Stage quickly gained international recognition. Early in his career, he achieved a milestone by winning the remix contest for the single "Feelings," hosted by STMPD RCRDS, Martin Garrix's label. His productions have been played by icons such as Above & Beyond, Nicky Romero, Armin Van Buuren, Tiësto, Alok, Ferry Corsten, Cosmic Gate, and David Guetta, featured in sets at major festivals like Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival, and EDC.

In 2020, Different Stage took a significant step forward with the release of "One Night," a collaboration with Dubdogz and Pontifexx under Spinnin' Records. The track received widespread acclaim, cementing his name as one of electronic music's emerging talents. Following this, he signed with Braslive Records, delivering hits like "Red Light," which resonated across radio stations and playlists worldwide.

Not stopping there, he debuted on Armada Music in 2022 with the single "Take Me Home," a collaboration with Kiko Franco that reaffirmed his ability to craft impactful and emotive tracks. In 2023, his passion for intricate melodies led him to join the Enhanced Music roster with the release of "Beyond," a track widely praised for introducing him to a more refined niche within the scene. This partnership resulted in other notable releases, such as "Growing" and "The Sky," further solidifying his presence in the melodic house and progressive house realms.

Despite being established with captivating melodies, Different Stage ventured into more dynamic and energetic beats with tracks like "Deeper Love" (a collaboration with Ralk), his EP "Chemicals," and the single "The Game," released through Controversia Records, the label helmed by Brazil’s leading electronic music icon, Alok.

With tracks featured in the sets of some of the world's biggest DJs, Different Stage continues to carve out his place on the global stage. His ability to blend melodic and energetic elements, combined with the support of renowned names, positions him as one of the most consistent and promising talents in contemporary electronic music.
