Releases

Stevie R & Parisinos land on Playground’s 37th reference with an Ep flooded with dark magic, mystical chants and trippy atmospheres. The release is composed by two original mixes alongside two delightful remixes from the Romanian duo Khidja and London based artist Mytron.  This launch was inspired by recent events, by the transformation of the way of life around us and the ability for music to guide us through wandering adventures.  Our premiere of Mytron’s remix closes the story by giving us a hopeful ending, taking us all to the dance floor to exorcise our sorrows.

Release date: 24/06/2021

ML Premiere: Stevie R & Parisinos - Yiare (Mytron Remix) [Playground Records]

Taken from "Balam - Chants of Pachamama (Part 2) EP (Hard Fist)". Out October 15th.

After a first volume released in September 2020 on Hard Fist, Argentinian Balam comes with “Chants of Pachamama (Part. 2)”, including a remix by Matias Aguayo.
This time Balam focuses on the experience around the ritual of magic plants that is practiced in the deep South-American rainforest. By mixing modular synth, stromping basslines, haunting vocals and real played percussions produced in his studio “Submarea” in Buenos Aires, he recreates a psychedelic trip from beginning to end. 
The opening track “Yagé” is the name for a magic plant that can be found in many places in South America. With a tight djembe, the magician comes with his chants for starting the ceremony just before the bass bursts for a pagan dance. An irresistible lead synth takes the climax higher until the break where the magician enters the void and the psychedelic trip begins.
“El Curandero” - the chaman who leads the ritual - is the second tune of a frenetic organic and modular percussion bass driven dance stomper. Blazing synthesizers create a state of confusion and hallucinations when “el curandero” chants his icaros. The djembes and shakers move behind the heavy bassline while analog ding and dongs go crazy all over.
The second last track “Golfo”, just before the remix, is an instrumental tune, the end of the experience: heavy synthetic percussion, modular ambient sounds, a modal marimba and a very present djembe jamming until it fades in the analog night.
The closing track is a great reinterpretation of “Wakax” from “Chants of Pachamama (Part 1)” by the legend Matias Aguayo. A dark and heavy bass mixed with a tricky use of lots of the original elements makes you wanna twerk all night long.

New upcoming EP from Italian A-Tweed (@antakaatweed), a psychedelic freak journey this time mainly focused on digital sounds.
The title track "Slime Mould Maze" is dedicated  to Physarum polycephalum, a single-celled, brainless organism that can make “decisions” and solve mazes.  A tribute to the weird side of nature.
"Midi Cooper“ is a track completely produced with digital sounds controlled via Midi. All samples come from original 1960s advertisings.
"Easels Ripped My Flesh" is another pun to express A-Tweed's love for Buchla synthesizers (Buchla Music Easel) and Frank Zappa's music (Weasels Ripped My Flesh,1970).
The release includes two remixes by French producer Kubebe (@nicolakubebe)and German Tassilo Vanhoefen (@eshu-est).

Promotext:

After releasing their critically acclaimed debut single ‘Stillstand’ on Local Suicide’s label Iptamenos Discos the Austrian duo Wiener Planquadrat are returning with their new ‘Dschungel’ EP which includes remixes by legendary electro-punk producer T.Raumschmiere, London-based infamous artist Birds and the uprising disco producer Tech Support.

The title track ‘Im Dschungel’ is a feel-good disco-pop / indie dance tune that speaks about the urban jungle of Vienna. The exuberant combination of arpeggio distortions, sizzling synths keys and jolly vocals transport listeners right in the middle of bubbly and chaotic Viennese jungle. 

The B-side ‘AIV’ (short for Alles ist Viel) is a dark disco hymn composed of polyphonic plucked synths, classic 80s beat, and distorted arp brassy sounds, while the vocals evoke the wilderness of a tangled and jumbled mind.

T.Raumschmiere, an artist of multiple facets ranging from punk techno to experimental ambient, maneuvers ‘Im Dschungel’ with abstract and minimalist tones. A steady remix with kick and bass at the forefront wrapped up with bright looping keys. 

Birds twists ‘Im Dschungel’ with an acid bassline, dark metallic strings, and adds mystical vocals showcasing her talent to merge multiple atmospheres into one track and always thrive for edginess and originality. 

‘AIV’ is revisited by London-based Tech Support, who gives it an all-around bouncy and elegant groove, harmoniously matched with spacey effects, bright bells, and screechy synths.

Wiener Planquadrat is formed by Maximilian Atteneder from Catastrophe & Cure and Michael Weiler, a former member of Luv Shack's Burning Tears. Their work is a union of their two musical background: a mixture of indie, dark disco, and a decent portion of French electro, reminiscing the times they first met. In 2021, they released their critically acclaimed debut single “Stillstand”, which went up onto the top 10 tracks of Austria’s most important youth radio station FM4, was highlighted as track of the day by Byte FM, received glowing reviews on the blogosphere and was described as the “perfect feel-good-disco-track” by German leading electronic print magazine FAZE, while receiving support by DJs such as Joris Voorn, John Digweed, Phunkadelica, Sean Johnston & Damon Jee among others.

The ‘Dschungel’ EP is an electrifying collection of tracks showcasing each artists' distinctive style and colourful palette of musical artistry. It will be released on a strictly limited clear Dubplate 12” and made available digitally on all platforms on April 22nd, 2022.

The journey continues for our beloved French inhouse artist, Kubebe. He returns once again to the Fauna Reve pit with "Power Plant", an EP loaded with a bunch of funk, discordant sounds and a bit of reggae vibe. 

The swirl of ideas that can lodge in Kubebe's consciousness is immense, from experimental creations created with noise generators, to internal tribal chases or relaxed atmospheres.
Kubebe’s most recent collaboration is with Italian, A-Tweed, in "The Garden" EP. In the past, the Lille-born producer collaborated with Bufi on the "Bufebe" EP.  Some of his productions live on labels such as Duro Label, Calypso Records, Feines Tier, Hard Fist Records.

PREMIERE: Megaphonim - After Of Disaster (Rina x Benji Remix) [Feines Tier]

Bufi & Kubebe return to Fauna Reve with their second collaborative EP "Sternana". This production is composed of five original tracks that present a fusion of urban rhythms with sticky basslines, booming drums and resonant, psychedelic and melting sounds.
The release opens with "El Jockey", a collaboration with the talented Portuguese singer Abrao. Together, they created a hypnotic and powerful track, full of glitches and sound caves. Abrao's voice takes you on a surreal journey and envelops you with a feeling of mysticism.
"Sternana" is the second track on the EP, a collaboration with the talented Livia. It's a mixture of urban electronics and street sounds that takes you through alleys full of punctured drums, resonant sounds, snare rolls and Latin rhythms.
The rhythm twists with "Aguachile Dembow", a cut that fuses psychedelia with dembow rhythm. This track has a powerful energy that makes you feel like you're at a street party. Synths blend
with deep basslines and psychedelic vocals to take you through
an amazing sound experience.
"Llooccaa" is the next track on the EP. This cut features deep and rumbling basslines while pizzicato guitars, cut vocals, and synths push you down. 
Finally, the EP closes with "Cicatriz", a mixture of oriental sounds with urban rhythms, melting and sweaty basslines.

"Sternana" by Bufi & Kubebe will be available from July 14, 2023, on all digital platforms.

PREMIERE: Wolfstream - The Manger Of Blood [Electric Shapes]

Three years in the making only to be held up almost another year due to COVID and now finally seeing the light of day, is this brooding monster of a record by Brussels based Strapontin, aka multi-disciplinary artist Patrick Belmont.

Clocking in at over 35-minutes the record is almost album length and spans a multitude of depths and moods with elements of techno, new wave, rock 'n' roll, house and tribal…...all glued together with a uniquely sleazy atmosphere.

Add to this a heads-down-no-nonsense darkroom beast of a remix by techno maestro Sascha Funke and the package is complete.

Strapontin provides us with some insight:
“It started with a desire to move away a bit from my 'dancefloor' side and go into more undefined fields, I wanted to work with blurry sensations that I can't understand. I like mixed feelings. Dramatex 300 is made of that ambivalent mood. The voice is saying 'I'm feeling empty' and 'I'm feeling healthy' at the same time. I like that paradox. Eunuque is a song but is also a character I will develop in a short movie (which will act as the 'music video' of the song). The Eunuque is a character full of anger yet he doesn't want to fight nor has he a target to aim at. A restrained aggressivity is boiling inside him/it that has no opportunity to escape from the body and gain release. The song is the fever he feels from these inner battles. I think Le Bain d'Huile and Anti-sceptical have the same slow and angry feeling. I'm proud of these tracks because they are a bit mysterious to me and it feels like they controlled me more than I controlled them.”
