🪩 About the EP release 🪩
“Stay Soft” is the result of Berlin based DJ and producer, Sarah Farina, seeking the identity of a voice she loved on one of her favourite songs (Freak Like Me by DJ Deeon), only to discover the name wasn’t listed. Not on the version she was playing, or any of the 27+ remixes released in the past 28 years.

And so Farina, an artist on a mission to spread “Rainbow Bass”, a self-coined term for the colourful, uplifting musical energy she emanates with her diverse selections, was determined to find the artist that has never been credited. Sarah’s hope to find and work with the beautiful voice unintentionally became the story of another forgotten, overlooked Black femme vocalist.

@TishBailey is a Chicago singer, songwriter & rapper, who’s voice & lyrics have been streamed 75+ million times since the release of the 1996 Dance Mania club anthem Freak Like Me by DJ Deeon (Rest in Power):

“Though few know my name or have seen my face, I know I've brought a lil spicy joy to countless people. That's my life's purpose so despite any downside, I humbly appreciate the opportunity to reach the hearts of many.”

Unfortunately, it’s been an unscalable mountain to edit the credit (ironic how fun this sounds!) so this new transatlantic, intergenerational collaborative EP offers space for Tish Bailey’s voice to be heard... and her name to be seen.

“Stay Soft” is Sarah & Tish’s first project together consisting of three tracks across the 130-155 bpm spectrum. This diverse EP presents unexpected musical & lyrical range to evoke joy in any listener at home & on the dance floor.

"Syrinx Music is honoured to welcome Dylan Cote for the 12th EP of its digital series. Dylan Cote’s name gained traction in recent years thanks to his work as a visual artist & designer, as part of the OYÉ collective or on his own, in renowned international events such as MUTEK, Dour Festival or Positive Education. We are delighted to release Antrela, his first EP as a music artist. This release originated as the sonic part of a solo A/V live project of the same name, melting live electronics with 3D visuals portraying a dystopian, cybernetic universe. "

Marking their eleventh release, Paris-based imprint Couvre x Chefs sharpen their sonic arsenal with 'Three Faces', the sophomore extended player from label mainstay Scarlett...Our pick from the release, 'Steve', beckons toward the scorched edges of a mind-altering downtempo ritual. Digital rhythms slither through a haze of spectral synths and murky FX textures, pulling the audience into a mesmerising whirlpool that seems to warp space-time itself. As the track unfolds, serrated basslines slice through the fog, pushing the tension into a feverish spiral - like stumbling upon a neon-lit mangrove, pulsing with otherworldly feels.

Senegalese rhythms and UK club sounds come together in Basel-based producer Mafou's latest FWD transmissions track "Evom." Within, percussive elements playfully come and go, and hide and reappear around the main kick, before racing towards a towering crescendo. Strap in and take a listen to the EB exclusive from third and last instalment by the Somatic Rituals crew.

Echo/Dawn is weaving stories by tracing the contrast between light and dark. 
Echo resonates with the depths below, while Dawn rises in its wake.
From post-club rhythms & cutting breaks to ambient soudscapes & forward thinking electro, each performance is a journey into sonic territories.

Echo/Dawn's series ༺✵༻ echoes to e c s t a s y ༺✵༻ navigates the liminal space between the echoes of the depths below and the release of pure e c s t a s y. Each mix is a dialogue between the two, where shadows appear & dissolve as the story keeps u n f o l d i n g.
