Fresh off the release of his own 'Repertoire' EP and label showcases in Berlin and Brooklyn, label boss Beartrax now prepares the twelfth Melodize vinyl, this time handing a debut to Manuel Ortúzar aka Aural Trace, who delivers the neon-drenched ’Midnight Thoughts’ EP. 

As one half of Random Atlas, the young producer can be found exploring the boundaries of New Wave and Post Punk. Flying solo as Aural Trace however, the Chilean embarks on more synthesized Italo dreams. 

The EP kicks off with 'Soft Lips.' A non-stop, full-speed drive through the radiant passages of outer space loaded with fast synth arpeggios, epic strings and aggressive linn beats, the track is underpinned by a mean bass line and a glossy layer of refinement that will keep those lips super supple. 

“Midnight Thoughts” is characterised by lush retro pads, raw 707 drums, and longing gentle melodies that form to create a romantic midnight Italo delirium, whilst “Resolution” is a romantic ode to an unforgettable time where introspective dx feelings meet tense, detuned synth pads, agitated large gated drums, and a huge, rounded bass. 

Completing the package with a wonderfully compelling rework of ’Soft Lips’ is Melodize favorite Chinaski, who ramps up the tempo whilst staying true to the blazing vibe of the original.

About:
DJ Duo, Music Producers, & Event Curators // Making & Transmitting sounds that embody that Slutty 80's-Vampire-Dungeon-Disco vibe.
 
Dose. is the multifaceted DJ & Music project from partners Max & Taylor. Their musical style flows through genre bending Techno that fuses sounds from the Punk, Disco, & Trance eras...into what they call, Sluthouse.
​
Throughout the past several years, Dose. has notably transmitted music at events & venues such as: KitKat Club, HÖR, Georgia Bar Berlin, Yelapa Music Festival, Shambhala Music Festival, Versions, Sled Island, Future Forest Music Festival, Gorgomish, Wicked Woods Music Festival, YamBak, and their own Festival creation Re-Unión. 
They have also shared the stage with talented Artists like: Mystery Affair, Diego Montiel, Adrian Marth, Robert E. Livingood, Esette, Roderic, Hector, Metrika y Balcazar, Saand, Nico Stojan, Blond:Ish, Marques Wyatt, Goldcap, Lion-S.
​
Alongside their DJ bookings & Music Production they have been curating underground events, for over 8 years, in unique alternative spaces. Pioneering their own brand of Techno, in Western Canada, their events have provided a platform to showcase an unorthodox niche of sound. Their event curation also focuses on elevating the way in which people experience dance culture. Dose. expands beyond the scope of traditional expectations; choosing to create unique and visceral Immersive Art Experiences. Their signature style explores the notion of events as Contemporary Art. Through cultivating these experiences Dose. uses their platform to create social commentary, amplify safer spaces & harm reduction, instil conversation, and transmit a conscious message. 
​
Diversifying the stage is an absolute must for Dose. Within both their Music transmissions & Event Curation, it is their strong mandate to always have gender balance & equal representation. They consistently strive to represent fem folk, womxn, & queer Artists. Through this Dose. aims to break down barriers, create new industry standards, & open conversation surrounding the importance of diversity. 
​
Music is their medium & equality is their goal.

Melodies, written by life...

A musical outlet dedicated to pushing melodic compositions for the dancefloor.

Ever since picking up the violin 25 years ago, Beartrax has been experimenting with a variety of instruments and styles. After stints in orchestras as well as jazz and metal bands, he discovered house and techno in late 2011 and started exploring the vast universe of production and DJing.
Beartrax’s productions and performances heavily feature organic, musical elements such as violins and synths as he strives to incorporate his musical background and convey his love for melodies. His influences range from Heavy Metal and Punk to New Wave and Classical.

Having seen his productions throughout the years make it into the Beatport charts and garner the support of DJs such as Ame, Laurent Garnier and Roman Flugel, Beartrax also started his own imprint Melodize, which is a further expression of his musical approach to house, disco, and techno. In addition to his own music, Melodize releases have featured tracks and remixes by Lauer, Marvin & Guy, Massimiliano Pagliara, Undo, and Aural Trace and have been supported by Skatebard, I-F, Jennifer Cardini, Alexander Robotnick, and many more.
