Van Did

dark side of techno and other electronic

bpm 120ish .dark

good stuff

On remix duties for my buddy from Portugal, D-Mand. This is the result of some dark nights and urge for emotion.

D-Mand - Weltesser (Verve Remix) [Blendwerk]

Spinnen is a track I've been playing a lot I thinks it's a bit melancholic but groovy and energetic at the same time.

"Darks Side Of The Room" it's a minimal and progressive Ep, a little dark but uplifting, with funky little details and many textures we recorded, like glass and breath sounds...

We are proud to welcome Groj (https://soundcloud.com/groj) on the label who has recently released his second album on Box Records. Without any doubt he has become a well defined artist on the Canadian- and international electronic scene, playing on festivals and releasing music on prestigious labels. His captivating melodies and hypnotic grooves won't let you down! Groj and Van Did (http://soundcloud.com/esteban-lara) have been working together for over 2 years now, and this is the first EP of many more to come as a result of this friendship. 

'Nati' is an uplifting and energetic piece of music, it has a strong groove and a driving bassline and got some early support from Max Cooper!

Aparde (https://soundcloud.com/aparde) is a talented producer from Berlin. Listening to his remix of 'Nati' you may feel like you're on board of a huge ship. We believe this is a monster remix that could drive whole dance floor crazy! 

'Phare' means light house in French and we feel like this image really makes sense with this track, so no much more words are needed here.

We are happy to welcome back PHM (https://soundcloud.com/phm), who has been releasing quality music on labels such as Cinematique, Wide Angle Recordings and Parquet. He delivers a fat remix of 'Phare' to complete this EP.

More info : https://soundcloud.com/grrreat-recordings

Release date: February 25th, 2014

Dele Sosimi Afrobeat Orchestra - Too Much Information (Laolu Remix) Edit

Following releases on Innervisions and an album on Get Physical, E&B returns to Bedrock, and even though January is not yet done, 2016 has already been a milestone for LA based Eagles and Butterflies. Hitting Columbia with Richie Hawtin and Jamie Jones, Philly, San Fran and of course playing alongside John Digweed at the massive Bedrock show at BPM Festival, the year has got off to a soaring start. On the production tip things are equally relentless as he adds his own touch to the legendary techno production Murder Was The Bass by DK8. The highlight of the BPM showcase, it’s set to become a global bomb on the underground.

Murder Was The Bass is accompanied by Fireworks and Moonlight, two incredible main stage weapons that combine to create a killer EP that demonstrates why Eagles & Butterflies is one of the most talked about acts of the year already!

Some times the music just magically comes out, and that is the case here with "Syria" by new Sol*Selectas artist Unders from Amsterdam. After several successful tunes above the 120 BPM mark on labels like Sincopat and Groove On, "Syria" was Unders' first attempt at slower grooves, and an accidental experiment that just "fell into place, and was automatic magic". Syria's current political unrest is all over the news and social media, and the story being painted is difficult to watch. Driven to create a song which goes against all the negative publicity, Unders says "between all the negativity, the more i looked into the situation, the country, its people and its culture, the more this track reminded me of so much beauty the media doesn’t portray." The song itself a slow minimal trip with chopped up guitar licks, a gorgeous flute sample that takes the listener to far off desert lands, and features the vocals of Veerle.  Satori is yet another up and coming producer from the Netherlands, gaining instant recognition sharing the stage and studio with Acid Pauli, and producing incredible tunes utilizing live instruments played by himself, and tastefully incorporating these with electronic elements. His remix preserves the original message of "Syria" lowering the BPM to an even more hypnotic 104 BPMs. Satori adds middle eastern strings and chords, swapping out the original vocal for a more Saharan inspired call, and even plays delicately with some acid sounds furthering the listeners journey.  
Both songs are meant to invoke peaceful images of Syria, and conjure up positive intention on the dance floor. Sol*Selectas is very excited to present the debut song "Syria" from Unders, and the amazing remix by Satori,  two artists from the Netherlands you would do well to keep your eyes and ears open to in 2016.

Stephan Bodzin: a classically trained musician, vastly experienced producer and master of melody. He has built a reputation through countless releases under many aliases, and through his dramatic and dynamic live set capturing the hearts of fans worldwide. For Afterlife, Bodzin bottles the infectious energy of these shows into two epic, colourful landscapes of sound, “Strand” and “Catamaran”.

Following his first contribution to the label in September - a mesmerising remix of Tale Of Us & Vaal’s ‘Monument’ - “Strand” elevates this fitting relationship to the next level. The release contains a true anthem from Bodzin’s and Tale Of Us’ sets in ‘Strand’ and a more restrained effort in ‘Catamaran’. Both dream-like compositions are unmistakably Bodzin, taking the listener on a journey and brimming with the synth wizardry he is best known for.

Planet Caravan (Poolside Rework)

Full EP -> http://snd.sc/10b941Y 
We are proud to welcome talented Spanish producer, Lefrenk who has been remixed by Oliver Schories and just released a full length album on Greek label PFL records. For this Ep he teamed up with Hells Kitchen who has become an emerging talent from Russia with releases on Cinematic and Moonbeam Digital to name a few.

	 'Lights' it's a groovy emotional track with some driving arpeggiated synths and cinematic strings sections.

	'Shadows' is a dark adventure with a powerful baseline, some nice detailed textures and surrounding deep atmospheres.

	Lefrenk has delivered 2 solo tracks on this EP in which he shows us his unique talent to captivate and hypnotize.
Listening to 'The traveller' you will find yourself immersed into his universe full of feelings and flying notes.
'Other Way' is a happy progressive composition that won't let you down. It has a beautiful break, and you may feel like riding a galloping beat. 

We are happy to have Applescal on board, he has remixed 'The Traveller' creating a massive track. This remix speaks by it's own,  words aren't required here.

To close this EP Van Did has twisted 'The Traveller'  into something a bit more clubby, while adding his own flavors.

We hope you enjoy the trip, thanks for the feedback and support to label.

Release date :  15 April 2013
