June is here, which means many things--including new music! Here's a track dedicated to the old-school sounds of Future Funk. I had blast working on this and I hope that you get as much enjoyment out of this song as I did!

The past few months have been a creative struggle, but I am always happy to release on this page. As of last week, my grandfather passed away due to age. Naturally, things are hard to process. Thankfully I have this community to rely on for support. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this artist project. 

Here's to a lively summer, let's enjoy it while we can! Especially for those who can't anymore.

Substitution (feat. Julian Perretta)

Usually Quiet: "'Voyage En Rouge' marks the debut single of a collaborative side project initiated by myself and Satin Jackets towards the end of last year, when we first met in my Berlin studio. The vision evolved over countless hours of dialogue and listening to our favourite classic house music, a genre deeply ingrained in our musical background. Reflecting on our formative years during the rise of deep house in the 90s, we traced back to our humble beginnings in the music industry. Despite embarking on diverse paths, including collaborations with other artists from different genres, we felt it's time to reconnect with our roots.

'Voyage En Rouge' serves as the first release in a series where we focus on the intial jam and spontaneous energy cultivated during our studio sessions. Embracing analog gear and capturing samples directly into the DAW, we consciously stepped away from overthinking, overproducing and overprocessing. Our ethos revolves around simplicity: raw, pure, loop-centered, groovy compositions without excessive transitions or effects. We consciously ignore social media and spotify trends, instead offering a contemporary take on traditional jam sessions and mixtape arrangements."

Voyage en rouge

n a nostalgic nod to the golden era of club music, the collaborative effort between Satin Jackets and Usually Quiet has emerged as a testament to the enduring charm of deep house. The magic unfolded at Riverside Studios in Berlin, the creative haven where Usually Quiet, also known as RobRox, holds court as a music producer and mixing engineer. The studio's magnetic atmosphere seems to have seeped into every beat of the singles, infusing them with an authenticity that is palpable. 

Satin Jackets, no stranger to the realms of deep house and club music, has seamlessly traced back his roots to deliver a sound that is both timeless and contemporary. His musical evolution mirrors the trajectory of the genre itself, and in this collaboration, he finds a kindred spirit in Usually Quiet. The result is a harmonious blend of classic beats and modern sensibilities, a testament to the enduring allure of deep house.

RobRox, having grown up amidst Munich's vibrant club scene in the 90s, brings a wealth of experience and a keen understanding of the genre's evolution. His work and experience at Riverside Studios adds an extra layer of depth to the singles, creating an immersive experience for the listener. The tracks serve as a bridge between the past and the present, a musical journey that transcends time and space.

In the collaborative synergy between Satin Jackets and Usually Quiet, two shimmering instrumental deep house tracks were born. Crafted at Riverside Studios in Berlin, these compositions blend house roots with precise production finesse.

Zopelar returns to Tartelet with Ritmo Freak, an electric eight-track album from the beating heart of the Brazilian underground, out May 10.

In a flurry of madcap sampling pitched towards the heat of the night, Pedro Zopelar builds on the premise of his 2022 electro-funk love letter Charme, shifting his approach towards a particular 90s flair and a method with a specific end result.

Ritmo Freak took root in studio experiments for a momentous — and rare — live set at São Paulo festival Não Existe in 2023, where Zopelar was caught up in one of those right-place, right-time moments we carry with us through life. As he explains himself:

“This album is dedicated to freaky club culture. While I was playing at the festival there was a crazy tropical storm outside and the room was packed with the freakiest crowd. I've tried hard to immortalize that feeling on this record."
With the intended energy in mind, Zopelar focused on a particular mode of production centred around 12-bit sampling from his ample record collection.

Considering his background as a trained pianist, here his musical instincts are forced to work within the limitations of short, snappy cuts from dusty 12”s. The lo-fi sound sources and the resourceful ways Zopelar works them gives the record an unmistakable old-skool flavour which he applies to forthright house, techno and electro funk rhythms, always taking care to draw out the soul of the music.

The stylistic touchstones flow past thick and fast on Ritmo Freak. From the amped up fierceness of the title track with its gaudy, cut n’ paste, vintage techno flavour to the effervescent electro funk of ‘Gabriellinha’s Boogie’ on to the surreal Balearic inversion of ‘Distraction’, this is a high-velocity, endlessly charming record bursting with the musicality Zopelar has made his name on.

As the driving force behind many warehouse parties in São Paulo, Zopelar has been immersed in club culture for a long time, and his distinctive catalogue of jazz, funk, acid and techno has graced highly respected labels like Apron, Selva Discos and Mother Tongue. Throughout, he’s displayed an affinity for the tangled roots of the groove with an open-eared, big-hearted sound. That’s what comes through on Ritmo Freak — a record as infectious as it is well- informed.
