A Dessous Recordings legend!

“Kissing Strangers” expresses Phonique's love for all the styles of music he so devotedly plays for the dancefloor. In 15 lovingly produced tracks with longtime collaborator Alex Krüger a.k.a. Tigerskin and a host of top-notch producers including Gui Boratto, H.O.S.H., Kiloo, Kikiorix, Abyss and Pupkulies, we encounter elements of modern electronic music that are rich, pristine and simply beautiful. From catchy underground pop to compelling dancefloor house tracks, this album is quite literally a long player, richly laden with moving, timeless vocals from songwriters such as Ian Whitelaw, Ruben, Rebecca, Louie Austen, George Levin and actress Nadeshda Brennicke. There are so many tracks that have the potential to become classics and every track is a highlight such as “The Passion” in new album version by Phonique and Kiloo, as well as “Endless Love” with Loiue Austen - whose legendary voice sends us all into raptures, or the outstanding cabaret jazz version of “A Change Receives The Blessing” with Nadeshda. Intoxicating musicality, warm and moving like a gentle summer breeze!

The Scumfrog - Send Wave (Mendo Remix)

Samba de Brasil

Vapor Loop & Mohaa-Micro Habits (jE jE Music Recordings)

Former Bar25 resident, acclaimed DJ and producer and Sender Records boss Benno Blome is back with a brand new EP that features two of his originals and two fine remixes from Okain Haus and Mihai Popoviciu.
Benno Blome is a boundary pusher who always diversifies with each new release and every DJ set. He has put out great EPs like Braitbendnoodles and the opulent after-hour head-movie "Eramina" and here impresses with a deep and infectious house sound. 
Opener Abotha is a nice and steamy cut with soulful pads layered up over soft rubber beats. Little melodic hooks pull you in and vocal murmuring add a steamy sense of human emotion. 

Romanian Mihai Popoviciu has had great success either solo or with the likes of Jay Bliss and has released on labels including Fear Of Flying, Hudd Traxx, Bang Bang and Diynamic. His remix here is slightly more uptempo and slick, with simmering and shimmying chords rolling over the face of the infectious beats. 

Also remixing is Frenchman Okain, who is a Fabric and Watergate regular and who puts out music on BPitch Control, Cadenza and many others. His version of Abotha is more tech, stripped out and freewheeling, with airy hi hats and thin synth lines meandering about to really hypnotise mind, body and soul. 

Benno’s other original is LED, another syrupy, gloopy, perfectly soft and inviting, warm and romantic house groove with gentle synth stabs, smeared pads and lots of late night soul in its bones. Great vocals again act as a nice human hook and it doesn’t take much to imagine the floor going wild for this one. Once again then Benno Blome proves he is a talented producer with many great ideas and more than the skills to pull them off.

You know Dirtybird for dropping basslines and creating smiles on the dance floor since January 2005.

The fun family vibe of the Dirtybird label can be traced back to a free event started in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. This new kind of house music went against the smooth vocal house that was popular at the time and derived its influences mostly from hip-hop, drum n bass, and American funk. The free outdoor BBQ party was very rough around the edges but eventually became legendary amongst the people of San Francisco. This event was also a very influential factor in the decision by Claude VonStroke to start the record label in 2005.

Today, Dirtybird has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles and has expanded into events and tour production. As it grows, the brand continues to expand beyond music into merchandise, licensing and artist management. In 2015, Dirtybird launched the inaugural Dirtybird Campout festival, which has been dubbed “Summer Camp For Adults”, and Dirtybird has been recognized from their achievements by being awarded "Underground Label of the Year" at the International Dance Music Awards, “Label of the Decade” by Mixmag, “Best North American Label” by DJ Mag, and Billboard’s "Top 5 Independent Dance Labels".
