Bside Incoming: Cortese

This week’s episode of Bside Incoming, invites a Brighton based duo to show off their favourites, old and new, from the flip side of their record collection. It’s Cortese.

Their career was kickstarted by their 2019 release of ‘Renault Sport’. Since then, with releases on Shall Not Fade’s sub label Tin White and Fort Romeau’s renowned Cin Cin label, Cortese have cemented themselves as serious producer’s of the underground scene. 

It is always a pleasure to explore the depths of such talented producers’ collections, and hear the sounds that inspire them: From techno rollers to lo-fi house, Cortese bring a deep and dark energy with warm synthy overtones.

Their label Plaza acts as home for their own self released music as well as hosting other talented artists making house, breaks and leftfield - https://plazaplazaa.bandcamp.com/music

Up next we have Manuel Darquart with an eclectic offering for Bside. Originating from New Zealand, the duo first released in 2016 before moving to London. Since the move to the big smoke, they have released on Coastal Haze, Childsplay and CC Disco’s first compilation. The pair have also released on the renowned  Dutch label Infinite Pleasure and London’s Wolf which led to a remix EP from non other than Don Carlos. Over time they have played at Corsica, The Cause & Ministry of Sound and an all-nighter at the famous Spiritland.

Bside Incoming: Manuel Darquart

Our 45th piece of the series is coming with a long-awaited versatile mix by @schacke. A combination of laid-back dub sounds with energetic grooves bring some happy-day vibes. We are especially happy to have the true legend on board delivering a more chill addition to the project with hopefully more to come!

Syntop Audio 45 – Schacke

Have you ever thought about me playing at @watergate-club? Me neighter. Uncommon (play)times we live in. So I was asked to play from 21-00h on the infamous Waterfloor. It was super fun! Starting with a deep warmup, slowly working forward to let the dancers do their thing. Mighty Robag Whrume spontaneously joined me in the booth afterwards!

Recording of Simo Cell's set at Dekmantel Selectors 2021.

Dekmantel Selectors 2021 was a much needed musical reunion. After the preceding period of stillness, the catharsis and pure joy of finally being together again has been overwhelming. In the words of Simo Cell: "It's 7pm, and I have 5 missed calls on my phone: 'We're expecting massive rain tonight and we will have to close your stage earlier, is it okay for you to play earlier?' No time to stress and to think about it. I left my place and started my set straight away. From a few people to a packed dancefloor, I built up slowly from 90bpm to 160bpm (you know the drill). Pretty happy about the progression of the set and the rise in intensity. In the end, the crowd turned into a mosh pit on XXXtentacion and I had the best time behind the decks. It's good when things sometimes happen spontaneously like that. And it didn't rain after all."

Recording of Fafi Abdel Nour's set at Dekmantel Selectors 2021. 

Dekmantel Selectors 2021 was a much needed musical reunion. After the preceding period of stillness, the catharsis and pure joy of finally being together again has been overwhelming. In the words of Fafi Abdel Nour: "At first, I was quite anxious about everything, but having lots of familiar faces around made me feel at ease. It has been a long time since I felt comfortable enough to dance during my own set and it's a feeling that I don't want to let go anymore! Still buzzing from it."

Recording of Tammo Hesselink & Mattikk's set at Dekmantel Selectors 2021.

"Playing a b2b set together is very different to the DJ sets we play solo. We've been clubbing together for over 10+ years and when we play together, it's really a melting pot of all these dancefloor moments we enjoyed together. Especially after such a long time of not hearing music on loud sound systems, it was big, big fun to play out a peak-time set like this in front of people you haven't seen for such a long time."

"I will forever cherish this set and moment in time. After all, togetherness was everything I wished for and I got it loud and clear, so much joy and smiling faces in the crowd... I even had a little tear. Big LOVE to all that came dancing and vibing with me at the Beach Main <3"
