An edit pays tribute to the original by trimming and rearranging the song in a way that it works for today's dancefloor or listening habits. 

Delfonic and Mendel are two outspoken specialists in this and understand the edit craft like no one else. For almost twenty years, Delfonic has been running Oye Records, a record store known far beyond the city limits of Berlin, and therefore knows very well which records and tracks go down best with whom and how. 

Always on the look out for that heartfelt connection, Mendel doesn’t cater to the fist pumpers, but rather the loving, open-minded and upbeat. His sets are peppered with diverse influences, from Chicago’s (ware)house pioneers to Amsterdam’s soulful school of DJs. He carefully orchestrates dance floor experiences by selecting tunes based on the emotion they evoke. A steady flow of mixtapes and Mendel’s Melodies, his regular show on Red Light Radio, provide a platform for Mendel to share his mellower side, capturing hearts by interweaving soulful classics with silky rarities from all corners of the musical landscape.

Notes On A Journey has therefore decided to make use of the services of the two DJs and to take two songs from their own, meanwhile extensive catalog under the magnifying glass, respectively the scalpel.

On the one hand there are two new editions of Germannu's «Fale De Mim» and one edit each for «Marcação» and «Pé na Estrada» by Valéria. Four times the very finest in soulful Brazilian pop music as one is now almost used to from Notes On A Journey. 

«Fale De Mim» by Germannu, by the way, originally appeared in 1984 on the EP «Germannu» and was released in September 2020 by NOAJ as a lavish reissue. 

The 4-track 7inch «Pé na Estrada» by Valéria originally came out in 1983 on the Brazilian label PPA (Paladar Produções Artisticas) and was re-released by NOAJ in November 2020.

With «NOAJ Edits 01», a first absolute must-have edits package was put together. And as the title suggests, the series will continue in the following months with more highlights from the NOAJ catalog.

Summer is around the corner, and helping us usher it in with pizazz and cheer is @ray-mang. We're overjoyed; we've been close, captivated fans since the early days and have been looking for a project to slide his way since day one at LPH.

This particular journey started with a remix of SAIDÊRA's "Deixa Tudo Fluir," which LPH released earlier in the year. It's a feel-good samba song, magically both sunkissed and touched by a gentle pang of melancholia.

Mr. Mang magnified the presence of the rhythm section and imbued the whole arrangement with a playful patience, crafting a Brazilian-inflected disco jamboree that's tuned for sunset dance circles yet suited for all hands-in-the-air moments. Enjoy it alone or with groups small and large alike.

ELADO (RAZOR-N-TAPE)
At the age of 13, Elado began djing with cassette tapes at his father's parties, and he hasn't stopped since.
He set the pace for the next phase of his career after 30 years of obsessive record collecting and playing every conceivable style.
2020 saw him take the scene by storm as his groundbreaking debut productions on the prestigious New York label Razor-N-Tape made him a household name amongst the top selectors. He received support from Antal, PalmsTrax, Folamour, Jacques Renault, Barbara Boeing, Milos Kaiser and others.
Following the success of “ELADO EDITS VOL 1” with the bolly-acid hit "Gulab jamun”, he released a string of 8 vinyl releases on labels such as Red Motorbike, G.A.M.M, Barefoot Beats, Bonfido Disques.
“ELADO EDITS VOL 2”, the remix of "Nina," and the release of the Tu-Tak remixes established him as one of the label's hottest names, and a consistent source of tunes for the scene's best DJs.
Elado would become a master turntable manipulator throughout the years, including winning in the local version of the DMC DJ championship in 2002.
He utilizes his musical instincts with rich DJ sets in which he fluidly weaves across a varied spectrum of sounds and genres, packed with blistering dj skills and an arsenal full of unreleased bangers from upcoming releases.
Over the past two years, Elado has been traveling the world nonstop, crashing down the dance floors at countless festivals, clubs, and outdoor events.
