Beautifully deep stuff from UK producer @markhand on his remix for @portable-aka-bodycode's 'The Transit Of Mercury' album rework package. Drenched in dreamy melody, it has shades of Larry Heard thanks to the combination of lush sounds and Portable's sultry vocals.

PREMIERE: Portable - Take My Heart (Mark Hand Rework) [Khoikhoi Records]

Additional production and mixdown by DJ Rocca

Legendary Adriatic DJ and producer Verdo doesn't release often, but when he does you need to listen. He always has one foot on the dancefloor, while the other makes a leap into outer space.

Resident at the infamous Gratis Club in Senigallia, a skilled musician who brings virtuoso playing and someone with his own immediately identifiable sound, Verdo is a real hidden treasure. The Italian has previously released on Danny Was A Drag King and also this label back in 2017, and mixes up anything from afro to acid, disco to downtempo in his grooves.

'Symmetry' kicks off in strident fashion, with throwback piano chords lighting up the airwaves as stomping drums make you move. It's the sound of an all out celebration of the sort we have all been missing recently. 'Babbions' strikes a more tender note, with warm chords rising up through the cosmic arps and long legged drums. It's a twinkling track that glows bright and lifts your spirits no end.

'Procida' layers up more retro-future chords with bubbling melodies and star-gazing pads that will soundtrack sunsets by the sea in perfect fashion. "Second Trip' is a thoughtful track that sinks you into warm grooves, with shimmering keys that bring the romance. This one also comes as a bonus beatless version for lush ambient escapism and sentimental moments.

Verdo's back, and back in style.

Apparel Tronic is back with a big record. The label’s mission of always bringing new and diverse sounds without submitting to a genre manifests magnificently with this brand new release; a collaboration between the founders 2KS and the exceptional pianist/composer Alessandro Deledda. Deledda, who’s experience is yet extensive having played in many orchestras, on big stages and having experimented numerous genres throughout his career like Jazz, Classic, Contemporary, Electronica and not new to the Apparel Tronic catalogues (he played on the 2KS’s ‘U Can Say’ remix of Kulaki), this time engages in the production of four tracks where his piano intertwines with 2KS’s sound design. The result is the ’Spore EP’, a four track record uniting the composing genius of the pianist and the creative talent of Kisk and SCHiLLiNG, making it an astonishing example of musical experimentation. Deledda’s smooth, yet firm, virtuosities intersect with the an array of soundscapes created carefully blending big basses, foley, home/field recordings, voices and synthesizers giving life to four complementary compositions which flow perfectly, one after another, in a peaceful and blissful, dark and luminous, musical experience. The EP has been produced during the Corona Virus pandemic, which forced the artists to work separately on the tracks; Deledda (together with David Giacchè who worked alongside him on the fonia and the piano effects) set the blueprint and the 2KS pair then tailored all the sounds on their patterns, trying to design experimental soundscapes in respect of the ultimate protagonist, the piano. Last but not least, the label is glad to welcome to the family another great artist; the awarded Italian and São Paulo based photographer Tommaso Protti, who’s amazing pictures you’ll see as covers of the Apparel Tronic’s records for the next 10 releases. The ‘Spore EP’, which sets the ground for a second wave of releases from the imprint, will be available in digital version on all the streaming platforms from the 21th of September.

Night Mimosa @ The Lot Radio 09 - 27 - 2020

John presents his first work done during confinement in this 2020, so the music reflects a mixture of feelings, on the one hand, the deprivation of liberty and on the other hand, loneliness and isolation. This last point is faithfully described by an artwork by Fred Gambino where within the spatial sphere, we find these feelings: isolation, loneliness and a certain longing in search of something. Something that, dear reader / listener, is in you to know what it is.

John Beltran, born 4 march 1969, is one of those producers that always seems to elude being pinned to any one category. His early work on Carl Craig's seminal Retroactive imprint sculpted a Detroit classic with hints of Derrick May, world music, and Jazz vibrations. He followed up in 1996 on Peacefrog with arguably one of the most sought after techno classics "Ten Days of Blue," which is still John's most successfully licensed music with songs like "Collage of Dreams" being used in the Miramax film Human Traffic and the HBO hit Six Feet Under. His next project was entitled "The Cry" under the Placid Angles guise which MixMaster Morris charted as one of his favourite albums ever.
