'Faust's dexterity with the modern disco sound makes him one of the genre's leading voices. He proves that making crowds dance is not just his job, but a life goal.'
(HarderBloggerFaster)

DJ and producer Justin Faust has been a well-known part of the international dance music scene for more than ten years. Based in Munich, but closely associated with the Portuguese DISCOTEXAS label (Moullinex, Xinobi and others) and New York's legendary Nervous Records, his style is as diverse as the people he works with, having releases and remixes show influences from Nu Disco, House, Funk and beyond. Apart from numerous original releases like his 2014 album 'Spellbound', he has crafted many popular remixes for the likes of Childish Gambino, Treasure Fingers, Goldroom, Moullinex or The Knocks, not to be outdone by classic earlier reworks of Missy Elliot, Justin Timberlake, Daft Punk, Ariana Grande and Janet. What followed were extensive DJ gigs and tours as headliner, playing at parties across Europe, the US, South America and Asia as well as appearances on Annie Mac's BBC1 radio show, a feature in the critically acclaimed TV show 'The Leftovers' and collaborations with legends like Mats Bjorklund, who has recorded with Boney M. and Giorgio Moroder.

We are proud to present Justin's latest release Storm on Emerald & Doreen and celebrate with two additional remixes by Dim Zach & Dalo

00_TO_TIDAL

"Discoteca Italiana" is a contemporary interpretation of Italian club music from the past decades by @musumeci and 5 featuring artists.

The EP starts with "About Your Story" a joint opus with @andy-bros. A track with classic drum machines in a distinctive breakbeat pattern combined with orch hits, scratches performed by Italian Red Bull 3style champion @stonic and a voice that reminds us of the important things: "Passion, Soul, Glory".

The second track on the EP, "Bells of Freedom", a collaboration with @lehar-music, picks us up with driving arpeggios and a straight four by four beat.

Followed by "Go" a collaboration with @dodi-palese, a song inspired by a classic dance anthem. Rolling basslines, imposing tom fills and pads with a long release.

The fourth and last track is a symbiosis with @enzoelia. Tension is created by intrinsically quiet sounds, which are presented to the listener at a habitual more aggressive texture, carried by a spherical chant by Stefano Proietti.

FREE CALL #12 : Kim Wilde - You Keep Me Hangin' On (Gumm Ft Sassafrass Edit)

Free Download : https://bit.ly/3wSLrlq


Over the last ten years, Gumm graduated from being an active promoter hosting renegade parties in obscure public spaces to performing at Melbourne's biggest festivals, including Let Them Eat Cake, Pitch Music & Arts and smalltown. As co-founder of Melbourne brand Darklove, he hosted international acts The Drifter and Damon Jee to go with regular bookings supporting Maceo Plex, DJ Koze, Jennifer Cardini, Stephan Bodzin, Job Jobse, Ben Klock, ANNA, Folamour, Mind Against and more.

Not only is he regular in Melbourne clubs (Revolver Upstairs, Bourke Street Courtyard and Glamorama to name a few), but recent performances at Melbourne's leading festivals earmarked him as an act for the bigger stage. At the end of 2020, he tasted his first interstate booking when he was flown to Byron Bay to headline a 2021 NYE event.

His recent debut single "Struck", released on Berlin-based Ombra International, the in-vogue label run by indie-dance maestro Curses, served as a crucial entry point into the global scene. The single is a highly infectious dance cut designed to suck you into its dark disco inferno, catching the attention of the underground scene's leading players. With his recent sold-out headline show selling over 500 tickets, Gumm is well situated to be at the Melbourne forefront of a new, compelling global sound with roots in genres like nu-wave, indie-dance and nu-disco. 

About The edit : " Sassafras (aka. Josh my housemate) and I were returning from buying groceries and he asked what I thought about editing Kim Wilde - You Keep Me Hangin' On. We had spoken about writing some music together so it was a perfect chance to have a play. Sass' love for the original was contagious and I soon became attached myself. The process was incredibly enjoyable and the result is now one of my favourite projects."

Justin Faust - Storm

Justin Faust - So Good

Dim Zach is a rare occurence: a charismatic, talented DJ turned prolific producer and songwriter who, having imposed himself through sheer talent and hard work, has become ubiquitous in his country, Greece. A shift many dream of, although few achieve as successfully. And for good reason, blessed with a mission (real name) Dimosthenis Zachariadis rarely fails to generate feelgood emotions, beaming up listeners to the dancefloor of an imaginary Mediterranean nightclub of his own hedonist creation.

A self-confessed work-alcoholic with a relentless output, this multitasker juggles as many projects as he can lay his hands on: remixing new artists as well as old hits, releasing on plethora of major and independent labels, having in time proved himself as seasoned songwriter and live artist in his own right - he's behind electro pop band Liebe with vocalist/guitarist George (three albums to date including, the last, 'Revolution of Love' on Emerald & Doreen). Notwithstanding this punitive studio schedule still allows him to deejay in clubs and host a couple of weekly radio shows on popular stations (his sound does wonders on the airwaves).

It all starts with a deep passionate love for the tunes that make you dance, essentially the golden eras of 80s' funked-up electronic pop and 90s' classic house variations (which combined laid the foundations for today's widespread dance culture). Filling the gap between commercial and underground, Dim Zach opts blindly for a more visceral mantra: good music creates good vibes. A blueprint effortlessly managed on his brand new album gathering fresh compositions as well as remixes of Emerald & Doreen artists (noticeably The Sweeps for which he reworked a full 5-track EP!). 

Operating outside ephemeral trends and limiting tags, 'Endless Summer' digests many distinguished influences (Imagination, Aeroplane, Dubstar, 'Fade To Grey', 'La Serenissima' etc) yet always sounds like the work of his tasteful originator; accessible yet never dishonest, contrived nor stale. Alongside slick beats, rolling basslines, glittering percussive synthesisers and cascades of swirling catchy hooks, the ear-candy melodies on offer, sometimes deliciously naive, are always heartfelt and generous, transcending categorisations and time. Truly the universal beat of love. much valued by his loyal fans.

Just like Dim Zach's  iconic  'Ingredients of Love'  album did in 2021, Dim Zach 'Endless Summer' lands right on time to be part of this summer's indispensable soundtrack, a liberation and new-found freedom to relish with Dim Zach's uplifting songs and exalted melodies.

Dim Zach - Endless Summer (Jerry Bouthier Mix)

Anoraak - Figure / Slowed Down + Reverbed

Island Issues is back with a second release to close out its first year, this time in the form of another tastefully deep excursion from Dubbyman with remixes from Less J and Estrato Aurora.

Dubbyman landed on Island Issues precursor Saft back in 2021 after three years away. He is a cultured artist who likes to go deep into the atmospheric end of house and techno on labels like Ferrispark, Soul People Music and Deep Explorer, which he co-founded. He always brings a musical synth style and a hypnotic sense of groove as this latest offering shows once more.

'Obsession' finds him working with Bjak, who came up in Chicago's early 90s scene and has been making waves for three decades since. Together they lay down a deep, body-popping and mid-tempo electro rhythm. It's brought to life with steamy male vocals and boogie-tinged bass with a retro feel and tender piano chords that melt the heart.

The L’ Hospitalet rising star Less J remix flips the track into a smoky basement house cut with candle-lit piano chords. Distant vocals bring the soul while seductive sax lines drift in and out next to the atmospheric sounds of a live jazz club.

Estrato Aurora has been a key part of the Valencia underground for almost 20 years. He has a wide array of hardware and has landed on labels like Appian Sounds, On Boards Music and Bliq. His first vocal remix is blissed out and loose, with heady chords and tumbling percussion sinking you into a reverie. Then comes a breaks remix that is more dynamic and driving, with crisp hits and broken beat drums overlaid with diffuse chords. It's brilliantly intimate yet sure to lock in the dance floor.

Dubbyman's 'Obsession' is another great package from Island Issues that should be under every deep house aficionado’s Christmas Tree.

Roglar - Dark Walker

Tropical Slow Mo Disco
We are extremely happy to announce Dim Zach’s “Sound of Warm EP” on Emerald & Doreen Records - a newcomer to the label but a seasoned artist of all things disco. Originally from Greece the motto of the EP could not be better suited.
The two featured original tracks are nothing else but cosmic nu disco bombs : “Primal Unleashed” a kaleidoscope of pure balearic energy and a definite 2015 anthem on mediterranean dance floors.  “546 Love” a lush tropical sundowner that immediately beams on a tropical beach, puts a tasty cocktail in your hand and let’s you watch the sunset - with a perfect finish of Robot Scientists - influenced vocoders and a vague hippie attitude.
Pure bliss continues with warm and beautiful reinterpretations of the original tracks and one of Dim’s great anthems: Discomare Sex. Definitely up there in the top 10 of best-ever track names.  Mexico’s John Ugalde is offering a cool Chromatics - inspired alternative mix of the original while David Garcet takes on  the cosmic side of “Primal Unleashed” – Paris76 and Palm Beach offer version of 546Love that are so laid back that you better don’t listen to them if you need anything get done that day. They will literally get your heart beat slower and will make your brain shed out some unleash some nice comfy dose of tranquilization.
We could not refrain from putting your body back in action and added Owen Ni’s minimalistic technoid interpretation of Primal Unleashed at the end of the release. It will hit you like a good shower of ice cold water after a long sweaty day in the sun.

Dim Zach -  546 Love

Better known as 1/2 of Greek synth pop band Liebe, Dim Zach recently decided to embark on his own solo project to further show off his love and mastery of 80s synth pop.
When you listen to the first track on Exotic Composites, you are instantly enveloped in lush beats which gradually transform themselves into synth-infused nu disco, cosmic, & smooth house across 12 tracks.

Our favourite tracks on the album, ‘Boys Between Girls’, ‘Time is Running Out’, and ‘Palace’ remind us of a time when dancing in night clubs involved style and panache, elements which are increasingly rare in today’s clubbing era.

Dim Zach - Beat Skinny Lights

Disco House is in the House

JAQUES LE NOIR, better known as Giacomo Bisciarri aka BSHARRY entered the scene in 2014. Ever since he's been featured numerous times in the top of the Beatport charts, Traxsource, Dj Tunes, Juno Download and Deejayworx.

His debut on Emerald & Doreen, appropriately titled „ First Time“   is a perfectly vibrant & uplifting Disco House killer. The cheerful positive energy of the track is contagious from the very first second combining French House and Italian Disco with a mesmerizing vocal sample, likely taken from Róisín Murphy’s unknown brother:-)

The package comes with bunch of remixes by Hot Shakes!, A Copycat & Dim Zach that will make your heart beat deeper, your legs move faster and your mood go up in the air.

Sounds of Sputnik - New Born (Dim Zach Remix)

Pardon Moi is the Berlin-based New Wave Duo featuring the British producer and song writer James Brook & German producer and DJ Thomas Freudenthal. „Addiction“ sounds like John Foxx and Gary Numan joined forces with the global chug, dark disco and synth wave haute volée. This track would have been in the UK Top 20 in 1981, for at least three weeks, we are sure! And the remixes are great too! The Kike am Radar remix adds some high noon post-punk edge to the game, James Rod turns „Addiction“ into a dusty, slow motion new wave monster from outer space. K-Effect turn it into a chuggy synth wave groove and MontCosmic's punchy remix is maybe the tightest of them all with its anthemic vocals, driving new beat acid synths, hypnotic grooves and heavy handclaps. A quality package of New Wave!

You can always count on Kotelett to serve up some vibrant melodic monsters, and the follow-up to his acclaimed ‘Lifted’ EP for Exploited Ghetto is now here. Three new gems. Three new weapons for your crate.
‘I Got Something For You’ typifies his less-is-more approach, taking just a few key elements and squeezing every last drop of energy from them. The focal point is the pumping arpeggiated bassline which could be equally at home in an electro or psy trance banger. Its rising melodic progression gives the track a feel that’s somewhere between euphoric and dark, and with the pitter-patter of his shuffling hi-hats and succinct synth hooks including cute 8-bit blasts supporting the weight of the b-line, he concocts a sleek dancefloor juggernaut.
‘La Metta’ thrusts along at a more urgent pace, with heavenly ‘80s synth pads building the vibe over an incessant bassline melody. The retro feel is continued by a sprightly detuned lead line and a cute percussive, pitch-bending riff, but the rug is yanked from under our feet by an intensely atmospheric, tense, dramatic breakdown. This moment of intensity breaks up the track beautifully, giving the lead line a renewed intensity upon its return.
The EP is completed by the electro-disco bounce of ‘Prism’, complete with cheeky cowbell and synth-tom fills. The bouncing bassline is complemented by ascending and descending melodic scales, and a breakdown that sounds like R2D2 malfunctioning in rhythmic fashion. The elastic groove keeps you nodding your head throughout and a sparse percussive arrangement lets the synth magic intensify from all angles.

Early Feedback:
Rampa: Thanks. Will check.
Frankey & Sandrino: Love the vibe of I Got Something For You.

'The three energetic synth disco tunes from Clavis’ Rocket Dial EP emerged from more or less spontaneous live jams with some vintage hardware, such as Roland TR-808 and SH-09 spiced up with modern drums and guitar overdubs. Miami Vice is calling...
Clavis is the formidable production duo of Manuel Tur and Adrian Hoffmann (a.k.a. Urban Absolutes). Having been friends since high school, it still took another decade after graduation until they released their first joint EP on Freerange Records in 2015. Since then the duo has steadily built up a discography based on a "one EP a year" principle and selected remixes for artists like Ane Brun or Andhim. Besides Clavis, they are also involved in the production of several other projects, such as Amberoom, which recently caused quite a stir with remixes by Dixon and Isolée. Clavis live and work in Essen, Germany.'
