The Force - The Rise Of Poseidon II

BUY: https://justsayfouk.bandcamp.com/album/mirage-ep

Label mainstays Fouk just dropped the perfect dancefloor Bomb with ‘Mirage’ paired with a high-octane Elisa Bee remix 

We all know Dutch duo Fouk from their soulful, bouncy take on house music. They’re also responsible for some of Heist’s biggest tracks like Kill Frenzy or their Lil Louis inspired 2021 release ‘Blue Steel’. On their new EP, the talented duo shows us a fresh side of their sound: the main-room hands-in-the-air-going-wild side. To top things off, Italian producer Elisa Bee made time in her busy schedule of DJ’ing and releasing for artists like Ben Sims on his Hardgroove imprint and Unknown to the Unknown to deliver a killer remix of the title track. 

Fouk’s return to Heist after 3 years is a welcome one and with ‘Mirage’, they might just have given us their biggest house track in their decade spanning career. The track is built around a stuttering synth loop and a seductive female vocal chanting ‘What made you wanna…” The real star here is the bassline, which propels the track into a seriously infectious groove. Add some lush strings and moody changeovers and you’ve got yourself a full-blown dancefloor weapon. Mirage has been a staple in Dam Swindle’s sets for the past months and has been one of their set highlights ever since.

“Coffee” is one for the classic Fouk fans. It’s got lovely Rhodes, a joyous combination of whoo’s, snare-rolls and synth hits grooving on top of an infectious orchestral background loop. “Tapioca” is a hybrid latin-electronic groove that builds on punchy synths, live percussion and drunk keys to balance the energy of the track. 

Elisa Bee’s remix of ‘Mirage’ is an intense percussive workout that builds on a breakbeat loop and a rave-bassline. The tempo is turned up a notch or 2 and that stutter synth and vocal of the original make this remix a wild warehouse affair.

Closing track of the EP is ‘Abalone’; A lovely bleep-house affair that still has a bit of that warehouse vibe. It’s got the perfect amount of distortion the drums while keeping things dreamy with some face-melting pads throughout the track. 

As always, enjoy the music and play it loud!

Finally, the second EP from Mondo Phase Rec is out. Joining the catalog is another legend of electro/electroclash: Sneak-Thief. Half of the legendary Polygamy Boys, Michel has always stood out over the years with his retro-nostalgic melodies and electro-funk sound.

The vinyl consists of four solid tracks that serve as a litmus test for the entire musical journey. The record opens with ‘Fashion Victim,’ a classic electroclash track with a compelling vocoder as the main motif, followed by ‘All Let Go,’ a dub version of one of his historic pieces that remains incredibly relevant. It features an intense and hypnotic electro-funk bassline. The B-side kicks off with ‘Der Herzensbrecher,’ featuring drum breaks and futuristic melodies straight from the 80s. To conclude this journey, ‘In A Distorted Wonderland’ is the toughest and most introspective track, with sharp and paranoid leds, bringing us to the core of Sneak-Thief’s production.

 No repress.

Tigerskin is back on Disco tracks. "City Nights" is a cool late 70s-influenced groover with lots of quotations. Cop cars, dealers and dirt next to organs, guitars and strings.

"Once and for All" brings back early 80s feel. Deep, laid back rhythms, fat claps, synth bass and saxophones. Yes, saxophones. It’s beautiful, isn’t it?

7inch out April 29th: https://www.juno.co.uk/products/gratts-mr-beale-submerge-me-feat-gilbr-remix-vinyl/991721-01/

‘Submerge Me’ brings Belgian dj/producer Gratts and London based vocalist Mr. Beale back together (after the much acclaimed release ‘Sun Circles’ last year). This time, the pair deliver a captivating and brooding sub-aquatic single, with Beale’s mesmerising mantras and mermaid-like musings pulling you straight into the raw percussive groove. On the flipside, Versatile Records’ very own Gilb’r pulls all of the elements even deeper under the surface, turning it into an intriguing, liquid dub excursion.

Written and produced by Tristan Jong.
Vocals written and performed by Ellie Beale.
Percussion by Frederik Kuhn.
Mixed by Ed Longo.
Remix and additional production by Gilbert Cohen.
Mastering by Spectrum Mastering.

Release Info:
Our latest “Looking for Mushrooms” EP comes to us from a collaboration between long time Dirt Crew resident Tigerskin and gifted jazz pianist and composer Grambow. We first heard from Grambow when his fluid key stylings featured on Tigerskin’s “Faint” in 2015.

The title track is a suspenseful and moody journey, lead by live double bass from feature artist “Das Eb”. Building in intensity with Tigerskin’s warm production and steady percussive instrumentation until Grambow’s live lead on a gritty synth growls in over the top. A true modern electronic classic as far as we are concernred.

“Tsukiji” is a playful deep house groover. Balmy tuned percussion and shaken highs roll along under the light hearted piano which cruises along throughout the whole tropically touched endeavour. This track has “Party” written all over it!

“Octocat” is a tougher italo disco tainted work out, tightly programmed live and analogue percussive elements push along, while wailing keys lick over a tenacious grunting bass. You can really taste and feel the long studio sessions the guys had to compose this great track. It is so much more than generic dance music.

“Red Fox” is a divine culmination of the pair’s compositional prowess and dance music knowhow. A cinematic and spirited house track that glides and glistens via delicate piano, plucky percussive riffs, bright strings and woodwinds.

We are very honoured to release this outstanding musical release by Tigerskin and Grambow.
