FLOAT RECORDS RELEASES

HEAD MASTERS TWR72’S SEQUEL RELEASE ON FLOAT RECORDS IS CALLED 'DEFORM'.

Their journey to examine the perfect groove continues with these two straight forward tracks. The original Deform infiltrates onto the lower parts of the groove where the spacious tom bass challenges the main percussion bass. As a result, an uncommon groove appears, which gets stimulated by an suddenly appearing unusual sound continuing throughout the track.

The linear version is even more stripped down to the essence of the grooves purpose. The obvious title refers to the broken down and straight forward character, however without losing the focus of the original.

Amsterdam Dance Event, better known as ADE, is the leading electronic music platform and the biggest club festival in the world for the whole spectrum of electronic sub-genres. Therefore Float Records decided to do a special ADE release which contains two serious club tools.

Which duo can represent this release better than Amsterdam techno duo TWR72. Already known for their intriguing tools they've created some super intense material for this EP. Track 'One' is built around a continuous driving synth stab which is supported by hard hitting jacking beats that will blend in naturally. On the flip side we have track 'Two'. With a stingy staccato rhythm this tool probably will have a sudden impact and no doubt it will make every dance floor rumble.

Support by DVS1, Marcel Fengler, Ben Sims, Markus Suckut, Samuli Kemppi, Randomer, Pfirter, Truncate, Mark Broom, Rivet, Kr!z, Blue Hour, Mørbeck, Raiz, Kwartz, Nikola Gala, Unbalance, Dj Hyperactive, L.A.W, Arnaud le Texier, Thomas Hessler, Stefan Vincent, Ekserd, Session Restore, Mr. Jones, Doka, Justin Kase, JoeFarr, Ambivalent, Jeff Rushin, Matthias Zimmermann, Monix, Kimono, Patrik Carrera, On/Off. 

The anxiety of losing yourself is summarized in 'Balance'. This one-tracker by TWR72 is filled with an unbalanced atmosphere which tries to get a hold of itself. A futuristic sound wanders through the track and is supported by a devious and an almost asymmetrical low end. 

Combined with the driving beats the whole spectrum of different layers glues into a logical unity. The paradox of balance is born and the journey in finding the perfect groove is yet a step closer to it's realization.

Vinyl Release: 20-07-2015
Digital Release: 03-08-2015

Early support by: Ø [Phase], DVS1, Samuli Kemppi, Jeroen Search, Anthony Parasole, Pfirter, Truss, Mark Broom, Truncate, Exium, Tensal, Markus Suckut, Dj Deep, Mørbeck, Henning Baer, Héctor Oaks, Joachim Spieth, Raiz, Arnaud Le Texier, MTD, Kr!z (Token), J.Tijn, UZB, Sev Dah, Roman Poncet, Kevin Arnemann, Vincent Neumann, Unbalance, Ekserd, Thomas Hessler, Jeff Rushin, Ambivalent, Keith Carnal. 

Float Records' first vinyl release is a fact. And what could be better then to divide it in two equal parts, where the first output reflects the second. Label owners TWR72 proudly present you 'Reflect'.

Developer kicks it off with his characteristic sound. He builds a noticeable remix with a sophisticated repetitive hook which won't leave your head. Second is Kwartz. He gains the tension right from the start with a hypnotic and haunting interpretation of the original track. No turning back on this one. The third, and original track, comes from the hands of TWR72. A slightly darker approach was their intention yet still in favor of their search for perfect simplicity. Myk Derill closes the first package with an outstanding version of Reflect. The lower frequencies burst out when you expect it the least. Myk creates a groove that raises the original track to another level.

Catalog: FLOAT006 
Digital Release: 07-09-2015

New signing Fisssh from Amsterdam makes his worldwide debut with two sophisticated tracks called 'Zebra Pleco' and 'Red Discus'. 

Little details within the structure are a keen element in both productions. With blending rhythms, intense details and woven structures this won't be the last you'll hear from Fisssh. 

Second artists on this EP is Kuf from Eskilstuna (and no, this has nothing to do with Fisssh), Sweden. His experimental and analog approach with a raw, and at times, minimal twist is utterly refreshing. And that's what you can hear in the tracks 'Kaos' and 'Ahmet'. Two brilliant and unusual pieces which will grow on you with every play. 

Kuf - Ahmet

Kuf - Kaos

Fisssh - Red Discus

Fisssh - Zebra Pleco

Float Records' first vinyl release is a fact. And what could be better then to divide it in two equal parts, where the first output reflects the second. Label owners TWR72 proudly present you 'Reflect'.

The first remix comes from Düsseldorf based producer Markus Suckut. A subtle angle is taken on Reflect which makes the remix feel sustainable. A perfect track to include in his already impeccable oeuvre. All the way from Finland is analog devotee Samuli Kemppi, who takes care of the second remix. Samuli creates a sudden tension which keeps on building until the very end.

A001, from Amsterdam, turns the track into a obscure remix with a perplexing second half. A001's mysterious and quiet appearance is a paradox compared to his musical output. TWR72 closes the EP with the bonus track 'Response'. A solid and barbarous answer to Reflect. No further words are needed.

Imprint bosses TWR72 have a ‘secret weapon' in their sets this year. A track everyone was wondering who produced it. And now you know. 

It's from Float Records' latest signing Altinbas and the track is called Imminent Probe. Sometimes you need something that is simple and effective yet attractive. And we can tell you, Imminent Probe does the job. No club is safe if you decide to play this.

With Authentic Memory, the 2nd track of the EP, Altinbas shows his capability to create more depth and subtle variations. The track keeps building while small details come and go. Altinbas closes the EP with Cyclic Frames; A never ending fast forward rhythm blended with intelligent highhats. Let this Brussel-based producer surprise you.

Altinbas - Imminent Probe (Previews) // FLOAT007

Only if you lived under a rock the last year it’s possible that you have no clue who Tensal is. But if you didn’t live under a rock you’re probably as happy as we are that Tensal is doing a full EP on Float Records. 

Achievement 1 is the perfect example of how subtle elements can create the story of a track. The sound similar to a waterdrop stays untainted while the sublime hat parts keep on floating around. Achievement 2 has that particular groove that will captivate and hypnotize your brains. Once again that groove is supported by flawelessly ongoing hats.

Achievement 3 is all about the eccentric bassline which is driving continuously making you deform into a different mindset. Achievement 4 unlocks a fierce tension; you shouldn’t feel save when hearing this one. Four grooving techno tracks, just like you are used from both Tensal and Float Records.

Dold - Tumult [FLOAT009]

Tracklist:
1: Dold - Tumult
2: Dold - Tumult (Fisssh Remix)
3: Dold - Sågtand
4: Dold - Sfär

The spectrum of Float Records is again extended with latest signing Dold. Housed in Sweden, this talented new producer delivers three analog pieces of music. Fisssh takes care of the remix to show you his approach. 

The original Tumult starts modest, but builds up to an intense moment of full force, which is supported by minimal yet heavy drums. Fisssh uses his intelligent percussion game to give the original a different direction. With intense filtering and layering he succeeds to flip the originals sequence into a new one. Sågtand almost overrules itself with its sequenced penetrating saw, distorted minimal kicks and clever positioned high hats. This haunting tool let’s no place untainted. Sfär closes the EP in style with a rolling sequence combined with an ongoing soundscape in the background.

Title: X
Catalog: FLOAT010

A1: TWR72 - X1
A2: TWR72 - X2
B1: TWR72 - X2 (Endlec Remix 1)
B2: TWR72 - X3
Digital bonus: TWR72 - X2 (Endlec Remix 2)

The 10th release of Float Records will be celebrated in style by label owners TWR72. They present you their own new EP called ‘X’. Three original groove monsters supported by an intense and profound remix from Endlec.
 
X1 has a remarkable and outspoken bassline with a slighty ‘back in the days’-feel created by the drums. Slowly the organ theme grows and grows until you get used to it. Heavy hitting claps make sure to keep your attention towards the break. And then… X2 has a driving groove as the main subject. Steered by an almost annoying high pitched pad and later some haunting strings. The real science starts when Endlec works his magic. His unique drum programming and distorted yet sophisticated approach of the elements creates the best remix. X3, the fast groover with a slick bassline, a cheeky synth and jacking drums is perhaps a safe approach. But we guarantee this will work on every dancefloor. As a digital bonus there is another brilliant remix by Endlec. Judge it yourself.

Title: Adept
Catalog: FLOAT011

Tracklist:
1: Deauwd - Adept
2: Deauwd - 120
3: Deauwd - Duality
4: Deauwd - Litter

Releasedate: 6th of June

It all started with a demo in our mailbox of a 18 minutes long track without a beat. Deauwd was the one who had the balls and confidence to send it. There was no doubt this guy was talented and here we are presenting his debut EP on Float Records: Adept. 

Deauwd his love for techno has translated into a real varied EP. With the 1st track Adept he goes full force with a thump mix of oldskool and minimal elements. No doubt the sequence gets stuck in your head for a long time. 120 is the 2nd track on the EP. This 18 minutes long masterpiece takes you on an atmospheric journey which builds up really slow and subtle. Just in time you can hear the first tones leading to the transformation of the sequence. Then it opens up like a beautiful flower in outer space. Duality on the flip side is the little kooky brother of Adept. Once again a thump mix of oldskool and minimal elements, but this time with a startling arrangement. You never know what to expect next. Last of the bunch is Litter. High BPM, killer bassline, snappy beats and a fantastic sequence. Once again a talented new producer on Float Records! We hope you like it as much as we do.
