A mix for Frede and my buddies at Apollo Bar. We've all been very much in absentia this past year. Started as a private press records only mix, but kinda evolved into whatever.

Premiere: Evvol - Sola (Planningtorock Remix)

D are excited to share the title track from the pair’s new EP. "Physical L.U.V is a pop song for 2016” they explain, “a truth telling tale about motivations and expectations in a lust driven world where the pleasure prince trumps reality, expressed through an organic sound pallet, far from the sheen of digital dominance”. Released 13th May through !K7/ Mad Dog & Love, press play on the hypnotic, Physical L.U.V.

Premiere: Evvol - Physical L.U.V

Since returning from European live runs with both Peaches and YACHT, Berlin-based darkwave-pop duo Evvol have spent the past few months holed up in their Kreuzberg studio writing the follow-up to last year’s critically acclaimed debut ‘Eternalism.’ ‘Physical L.U.V’ is the result - a wonderfully atmospheric 5 track EP set for release via !K7 Records in May.

Formed in 2014 from the ashes of previous musical projects and having rekindled their fractured relationship, Evvol - AKA Irish singer Julie Chance and Australian multi-instrumentalist Jane Arnison - embarked on a new and revitalised direction. Blending textured, atmospheric guitars, ominous synths, vicious beats and layered glacier vocals, debut full-length ‘Eternalism’ was the sound of commercial pop fused with arty electronica, dripping with industrial charm and evoking Berlin’s seedy underbelly. It quickly won them a dedicated fan base, selling out debut shows in Berlin and London and winning support from The Guardian, Noisey, NME, The Fader and i-D. Their stage setting is a dense fog of moody lighting, dry ice haze and angular silhouettes; a fittingly mysterious canvas for their rich moodscapes. Under a former moniker they have previously toured the world with Austra, and shared the stage with Grimes, Peaches and TRUST.

‘Physical L.U.V’ is a dense, ethereal and very personal EP, documenting the many physical and emotional comforts and constraints of love. Written, arranged, produced and engineered entirely themselves, it combines hypnotic vocals with electronic beats that ebb and flow with metronomic consistency.

To the delight of many, longstanding Panorama Bar resident Virginia is prepping her first feature length release on Berghain's own Ostgut Ton. With co-production from an arsenal of renowned artists such as Steffi, Martyn and Dexter, Fierce for the Night is said to address the "classic house music narrative" of "love, longing and lightness." The new project sees Virginia sing over all eleven tracks that incorporate a broad range of melodies, rhythms and sounds. From energetic house to slow paced balled-esque numbers, to more break heavy cuts; all gel as one under the rubric of the love and enjoyment in club culture. by smooth vocals that flow excellently alongside each track.

"Follow Me" captures the smooth vocally aided flow that ties Fierce for the Night together. A jungle-inspired break is paired with crisp kick drums, playful chords and a hefty bassline, while Virginia's soft vocals ride beautifully over the top. A picture is painted of a dancefloor in close conjunction with the DJ, where they dance away until the "break of dawn."

Fierce for the Night drops on the 27th May in all desirable formats. Pre-order your own digi/physi copy here.

Stripping away the live elements of the original, Steffi's updated take on Evvol's 'Physical L.U.V' maintains the atmosphere of the original while turning it into a fully synthesised, electro romp. It's certainly one for the lovers.

Berlin-based act Evvol released their second album The Power earlier this month. Comprised of Dublin artist Julie Chance and Australian producer Jane Arnison, they say the album is a meditation on love, the intimate and personal offering is a product of turning their thoughts inward after time spent considering the state of the world and politics over the last year. Julie is the guest on the TPOE podcast to talk about their suffering from coronavirus, how it affected the album's release, the misogynistic music industry, DJing, Berlin nightlife v Dublin (take me to Radiant Love!!!), and more.
