Fantasound is the fifth full length album from Slovenian Space Disco producer Ichisan. This debut LP on international label Discolypso follows recent singles Harmona and Margit Mono. Ichisan’s sound is Space Disco Pop Bliss - swooshing synths collide with pulsing rhythms and twinkling melodies, creating a kaleidoscopic universe of pure joy.

The artist explains the process:

"The album was recorded during the 2020 lockdown period. In those long uncertain days I watched all kinds of movies and rediscovered the ‘1940 Fantasiaʼ with my three year old son.
I started researching the story behind the production of the animated musical film and especially the sound production of Fantasia. Fantasound was a stereophonic sound reproduction system developed by engineers of Walt Disney and RCA. That is how I found the album title. After the album was recorded I knew that the artwork must be related to Fantasia. I always had ‘The Sorcererʼs Apprenticeʼ in my mind as an inspiration for the album artwork. Mickey Mouseʼs dreams in the dark-blue space and Fantasia poster logo were guidelines. The illustrator Meta Wraber delivered the fantastic artwork in her signature watercolour technique."

'Fantasound’ is a symphony of disco and italo, space synth waves and a happy-go-lucky driving rhythms. A sound that doesn't exist in the real world, the Fantasound is very much alive and in our mind during our happiest moments.

After teasing with several EPs, Ichisan blesses the world via Discolypso with the full Fantasound, an immersive ecstatic experience filled with twists and turns that will keep you on your Tip Top toes.

Ichisan - Super Princ

Oblako Maranta is the collaboration between Radial Gaze and A-Tweed. The duo has already released several tracks in different compilations by Samo Records, Electric  Shapes, Playground Records, as well as their debut EP “Maranta Kicks” on Duro. 
In their new EP “Trance Beckenbauer”, the St-Petersburg-based Radial Gaze and  Rome-based A-Tweed produced 4 original tracks that finely blend the sound of each  artist, where slow tribal techno meets acid weird disco. 

Starting off with the title track “Trance Beckenbauer”, Oblako Maranta brings us through  a cinematic voyage, paced by percussive wonders and catchy bass lines, hypnotizing  the listener from the first kick on. The atmosphere is dark, trippy, beautifully loved in an  analog synth “duvet”. With that feeling of timelessness, “Trance Beckenbauer” sounds  like the perfect fit for the next Blade Runner´ s soundtrack. 

Next on the tracklisting is “Putos Mosquitos”, a tune that gives a feel of crossing a jungle  full of wild life, with weird acid patterns on repeat, groovy percussions, and that sense of  limitless adventure as the track plays on. 

“Congarella di Luna” is a bewitching tune blending a mesmerizing melody with dreamy  pads, finely arranged as the drop brings the energy down before reaching its paroxysm:  an irresistible melodic pattern that will leave no one still on the dancefloor. 
The fourth track “Analog Garbage” ´should bring any human being on the planet to an  ecstatic state as it infuses that energy that makes you move fast and forward, without  looking back. Indeed, “Analog Garbage” is driven by a fat bass riff and a kick-drum that  tirelessly hammers the pace, while acid melodies are raining as the track unfolds. And  there is that drop… 

The EP is completed with first-in-class remixes by Inigo Vontier and Zillas on Acid, who  reworked “Putos Mosquitos” and “Congarella di Luna”, respectively.

Beat Resurgence: Diving into Sexy Lazer's 'Mid Life Crisis' Remix Collection. The original track, "Mid Life Crisis" by an Icelandic, Copenhagen based artist Sexy Lazer emerged from the depths of a personal spiritual journey – a turbulent yet transformative experience. The confusion, the waves of emotions, the melancholy – all channeled into a hurricane of energy that birthed not just a song, but an entire concept. Sexy Lazer turned pain into power, humorously embracing the tumultuous journey while sipping on "Mid Life Cider." 

Now, The narrative persists with a remix collection ready to resonate with a global audience. We invite you to rediscover "Mid Life Crisis" through the lenses of three distinguished artists, each infusing their musical identity into the mix. The first remix takes flight under the skilled hands of Panthera Krause, who is based in Leipzig and co-label owner of fulfilment. His interoperation of the original features arpeggiated synths, detuned elements, and distorted percussion, creating an edgy, unpredictable atmosphere. Elevated bass guitar notes ground the track, while Krause injects a distinctive rawness, channeling the unapologetic spirit of punk rock. 

Colossio and Theus Mago join forces in the crafting of the second remix, both hailing from the vibrant music scene in Mexico. They embody the spirit of "Blade" in their remix for Sexy Lazer's "Midlife Crisis" infusing the track with the legendary 303 blending nostalgia with futuristic energy. A robust baseline propels listeners onward, supported by percussive elements that add depth and texture to the musical experience. 

The remix package for "Midlife Crisis" is set to make its digital debut on February 16th. Hit reset, take another shot, and let those remixes be the soundtracks to your journey towards joy and fulfillment – even if 
it's just for the duration of this musical ride.
