Johannes Brecht returns to Diynamic with a three track EP titled „Believer".
The title track is a melancholic collaboration with singer Ben Westbeech. One-take mono-recorded drums on an original 808 create the most organic feel (you might notice the tempo slightly varying in places). The warm bass line and string and piano elements are complementing the cold realizations of Ben's words. A minimalistic arrangement that focusses on the quality of its ingredients and mastery of implementation technique, much like traditional Italian cuisine whose reduction to the essentials gives it its power.
This is followed by a club version of „Believer" with added drive and energy, but without sacrificing any of the original's sincerity.
And as B-side comes „Arp Piano" that is the result of a self-built digital instrument, where Johannes Brecht manually sampled each note of his studio piano and through the input of simple commands creates arpeggiated staccato melodies.

INVŌKER - Superhero [XYZ075]
Release Date - 9.2.2024
Stream/Buy - xyzlabel.lnk.to/SuperheroEP

Coming off the highly-touted ‘Clean the Turbines (The Remixes)' EP just before the holidays, When We Dip XYZ is proud to kickstart a new era for the label with the ‘Superhero' EP by INVŌKER, including a remix from Motip White.

Hailing from La Réunion and now based in Paris, INVŌKER has crafted a sound of his own in recent years, marrying innovative concepts, memorable synth work and a remarkable sonic research in drums and textures. Siamese, Innervisions and TAU are home to a few of his recent outings.

Motip White, a mainstay of the imprint, is establishing himself as the latest in a long line of Cologne legends. His songwriting prowess, complemented by top-notch sound design, has been featured on Innervisions, Frau Blau, Anims and When We Dip XYZ.

The title-track, ‘Superhero' is an immediate attention-grabber with its tight groove, upbeat ad-libs and glitchy risers. As the tune develops, the celestial pad and main riff unfold into an ecstatic crescendo.

The constantly evolving arpeggio of ‘Requiem for a Detox' serves as an invitation to an indelible trip. Soothing vocal touches serve as backdrop, building in intensity and sighing in relief as the different chapters of the track succeed one another.

Sprinkling his own vocals to the mix, Motip White comes in with hard bass stabs, driving hi-hats and a haunting chord progression. The new full-blown synths added by White play a game of hide and seek with the arp from the original, a symmetry between climaxes and linking thread.

INVŌKER - Requiem For A Detox

M.E.M.O. is back on Mobilee with the Afro-House gems "Baru" and "Kick On." Mobilee presents two dynamic tracks from M.E.M.O. Lead single "Baru" pays homage to an unforgettable moment on the island of Baru in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, while "Kick On" was inspired by the artist's recent trip to Venezuela.

M.E.M.O.'s artistry is evident, creating a sonic experience that transcends borders and cultures. M.E.M.O. explains what inspired him to write "Baru": "This song is a tribute to my friend Jose (El Tio) who generously offered me his hut on the island of Baru in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. It's a song of gratitude for the incredible moments I experienced there". We invite music lovers to embark on a rhythmic journey with M.E.M.O.'s latest Afro-House releases. "Baru" and "Kick On" will be released on the 16th and 24th
of February, respectively, and showcase the artist's dedication to delivering soulful and global sounds.

PREMIERE: AIKON - Just Wanna Dance (Original Mix) [TAU]

Blanka Barbara lands on ICONYC for her full-length debut titled 'Forgotten Pharaoh' in collaboration with renowned vocalist Jinadu. The UK based producer continues to be one of the top tier progressive house artists with continued support from the likes of Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J and Nick Warren, along with releases on Mango Alley, Eat My Hat and Krafted among others. 

'Forgotten Pharaoh' finds Blanka and Jinadu at their creative best with a driving, hypnotic production that's nicely dialed in or the dance floor. Punchy beats and a full, driving groove anchor the piece, as vibrant tones and spacey effects adorn the framework. Once the main break hits with Jinadu's outstanding vocal work, the stellar charm of the composition quickly saturates your pleasure centers, before melting down to a resounding reservoir as the beats drop for a storming finale. Outstanding work from Blanka & Jinadu.

The first remix of 'Forgotten Pharaoh' comes courtesy of non-other than Aaron Suiss, who returns to the label with a deep melodic remix here. The US artist reshapes the original elements into something deeper and more melodic spacious sounding. The wonk factor on the low end is quite high and monumentally groovy as well, nicely playing off the rolling rhythmic qualities as dulcet hooks and gentle harmonics drift in and out of the framework. The main break shifts the narrative into more emotive territory but the dance floor sensibility remains, with muted beats and percussive clusters building towards a tasteful drop. Superb rework from Aaron. 

The third and final interpretation of 'Forgotten Pharaoh' comes from label debutant Jas/t. The French producer follows up on excellent releases on ERRORR, Addicted & Zatar Music with a brilliant interpretation here. Deep, compelling and acutely mysterious, its deep melodic qualities and richly textured groove make for a lovely first act. As atmospheres evolve, distinctive stabs and vocal edits steal the air, before a one-minute break takes you further into a haze of psychedelic audio, perfectly setting up a groovy finale. A brilliant remix from Jas/t that's likely destined for the sets of the big boy brigade. Highly recommended.
