TRACK 1: KID VELO – EXCLUSIVE STREAM via Drowned In Sound on April 11:
http://drownedinsound.com/news/4142427-listen--rival-consoles-kid-velo 

First on: album opener and title track KID VELO, carrying a name that could be straight out of a super hero comic strip.
According to West ‘this track wasn’t about an emotion. It was more about creating a huge sound; a heavy beast that has a lot of pop running through its veins’.

Find out for yourself…

'There are a few labels which you can just trust. Erased Tapes is possibly one of them. One of their lot in Rival Consoles is doing something relatively novel and streaming a new track from his forthcoming record Kid Velo in various places across the internet over the next 11 weeks. We've got the VERY FIRST track and it's actually really, really good' – Drowned In Sound

Rival Consoles – Kid Velo

Go Astray: “Keep Loving Me“ EP

Emerald & Doreen Records can`t just stop loving her. 

After her solo release and an EP as a part of trio KLANGLIEBE, Klangschwester now sets in scene her third apparition as part of duo Go Astray. 


Karl Gruender and Klangschwester were gone astray while drifting on the same musical wavelength. When he was a child, Karl must have been fallen into a pot of magic potion with a lot of creative and productive energy in it, which is now gushing out and out of him. Since they met on the net, Klangschwester is taking paradisiac soundbathes in these effusions. Inspired and spurred, she puts her voice into rainbow bubbles, watches them flying over the sound, and waits for the moment that they burst.


All they say themselves on their “Keep Loving Me“ EP is as short and sharp as their sounds are long and winding: “Unfulfilled aspirations, secret wishes. Doubt and questions. Contrasts. Dark sides. Sexual attraction.”

All Emerald & Doreen has to add: Introspective, broken bass with longing vocals on the original tracks “Keep Loving Me“, “Touch“ and “Bittersweet“. Plus a massive collection of equally brilliant remixes: Haioka takes it to a wonderland, Fluss creates a hymn that will stay on your head for days, Copycat arranges a nu disco stomper and adds a symphony version of equal elegance, the Dead Sea Captains open the electro-house floor, and the always amazing Theatre Of Delays just have their fun at exactly this stage of moving in and moving out.

Are You Happy

Rush

The British producer Ital Tek gives a rhythmic turn to Indian Wells' lush and hazy track appearing on his last Pause LP. Closer to his contemplative and melodic-driven efforts, his remix fits perfectly with the Italian producer spirit, adding the typical deep sub-bass he developed and might characterized his sonic identity.

We believe that « everything is a remix »

Remixes are a major part of the electronic music history. The club culture take off on remixes, some of the greatest dance hits where made from remixing original tracks.
Our primary purpose is to highlight this exercise by offering the opportunity to artists to either work on a remix of their choice or offer a track to be remixed by an artist they admire. It is overseen and curated by independent music lovers and supported by The Absolut Company, a brand that is permanently involved in the field of contemporary arts and creation with a tradition of supporting artists such as Keith Haring and Andy Warhol. The Absolut Remix project is dedicated to the art of combining or editing existing materials, to produce something new.

As a start, every last Friday of the month, we will unveil a new remix, from a newcomer or a legend, from disco to techno or IDM and house music. And more to come...

'Games in the Yard (ft. Matilde Davoli)' was originally released on Indian Wells' LP Pause (Bad Panda Records) in March 2015

"Life Is A Liquid" is a single from EXEC's debut album "The Limber Real". Out via Tambourhinoceros February 12th, 2016

lyrics
Our lives are like a liquid
Flowing through two separate grooves
One heading for the future
The other for the truth
Both end up in the ocean

One trickles through so steady
The other is spilling over
One stream will make you ready
The other into a rover
Both end up in the ocean

One wakes you in the morning
The other in the night


EXEC - Life Is A Liquid

'Take Them All' is the fourth single taken from my forthcoming album 'Make Up Your Own Stories', released on October 5th. 

I always like contrast within music; an array of elements that keeps a song diverse and unable to be specific on genre or style. Its what I wanted from this track, having fairly up front beats and basslines but with pretty and melancholic musical elements on top, along with the amazing vocal by The Slow Revolt! Its one of my favourite songs I've ever written, and goes on quite a journey.
