Mark Fanciulli 
“chord kaoss”
May 5th - Planet E

Mark Fanciulli kick starts a prolific run of heavy releases for 2014 with an inventive and dynamic EP for Carl Craig's Planet E imprint. Released on May 5th, “chord kaoss” is yet another example of why Mark Fanciulli is heralded as one of electronic music’s most forward thinking and dexterous young producers: a reputation that is only going to flourish as the genre-defying, instinctive releases roll out over next few months.
The EP launches off head-first with the thunderous “chord kaoss.”  Pounding 4/4s and thick, driving bass provide the backbone of what is an uncompromising, relentlessly underground workout. The powerful bottom end churns away as snapping hi-hats, fluid synth stabs and deep chords all collide to create a track full of atmosphere and energy.

“Helsinki” is less dancefloor focused, taking a slightly left of centre approach to classic, Detroit techno. Rising, old school chords waft over the simmering low layers that bubble with a slower but immersive groove. Warm synths stretch over the top creating an aesthetic that is at once unfamiliar and inviting. A mere insight into Mark Fanciulli’s skill behind the desk, this EP is the first impressive work to be born out the creative fires of what looks set to be the most potent period of his career to date.

Patrick Topping delivers the second release on Lee Foss’ newly launched Repopulate Mars imprint.

The Paradise Ibiza resident saw an outstanding year in 2015 including securing his 5th Beatport Tech-House number 1, curating an Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 and trotting the globe between the likes of South America’s Creamfields, Australia’s Stereosonic and Detroit’s Movement to name a few. Following on from two massive releases on Cajual and Hot Creations, Topping now arrives on Lee Foss’ freshly formed Repopulate Mars label with a trio of heady house numbers. 

‘Baddie’ is a high-octane cut geared for the dancefloor with cavernous kicks, cosmic synths and trippy atmospherics. ‘Majestic’ then conjures up a more low-slung vibe as serene notes join a deafening bassline, until ‘Captivate’ concludes the package with rattling percussion and tantalizing arpeggios.

Mihalis Safras & Gene Farris - Aliens

Coming in straight from Malaga, Spain is the newest signing on Formatik Records, a young producer on the rise who has been rocking floors with releases on Clarisse Records, Safe Music and Escapism Musique in the past and is now about to make a massive statement with his „Tik2 EP“. And who is the guy we're talking about? Novodisc is the name!

The title track „Tik2“ gets at us with a straight banging, hypercompressed bassdrum section that introduces a full-on marching brutalism to House Music, paired with a seductive, yet uncompromising groove, killer vocal bits and ecstatic stabs for the ultimate dancefloor lift-off. This tune is an order, an order to dance!

The second tune on this single is „Sometimes“ in which the Spaniard on the rise once again provides a great example for his distinct trademark sound which one might file under the flag of Brutal(ist) House whilst adding excessive snare rolls and threatening hoover signals to the proven formula to create another ultra-effective peaktime banger. Check.

Chris Di Perri takes us down an exciting funk filled techno house wormhole with his powerful new two-tracker "Stage Ride". 

Title track "Stage Ride" is a percussion soaked, driving ball of dancefloor energy. Constantly building and morphing, while being whipped onwards by sneaky snare rolls. 

"Te Quiero" created together with Anker is another turbocharged floor filler, featuring high powered sub-frequencies and encouraging melodic layers.

Established in 2009 by Berlin-based DJs and producers Jakob Hildenbrand and Franziskus Sell, known, praised and recognized by fans and followers of electronic club music under their conjunctional moniker Format B, Formatik Records was initially installed as a homebase for the pairs own productions.

After their so-called Motor Funk-sound, a forward thinking take on pumping, straightforward, high octane electronic music represented both by releases on labels like Highgrade Records or Stil For Talent as well as an endless string of captivating live sets, had caught the attention of clubbers and media alike the pair felt the need to create a platform of their own that would grant them full creative freedom as well as unlimited quality control for a fertile and fecund future.      

Whilst taking care of the A& R side of things Format B teamed up with electronic music veteran Hawks Grunert on management duties, setting up an imprint that soon gained massive traction, became one of the major forces on the global club circuit and quickly grew way beyond the teams initial plannings and intentions.
 
With its core sound being defined by the powerful Motor Funk / Tech-Funk production of its founders Formatik Records soon became home and mothership for a vast array of likeminded producers and friends whose single releases are still rocking dancefloors all over the place.

Spreading the labels trademark sound further and catering towards the needs of an ever growing fanbase the label soon expanded and started to set up Formatik Records club nights and showcases all over Europe back in 2014, selling out  shows and leaving punters in awe whereever these nights are taking place.

Aside from carving out an in demand niche as club promoters the Formatik Records crew also started to take care of their artists bookings with their very own booking agency Formatik Booking which was subsequently renamed, restructured and relaunched in 2017 under the name of VIVID Artists which is now successfully handling things bookingwise for a good portion of the labels roster plus a carefully picked selection of other aspiring as well as well established artists and performers.

In addition to these musings the ever busy Formatik Records team established a second, rapidly growing musical outlet in 2017. Embracing a broader musical spectrum than its Motor Funk-oriented mothership, the freshly founded label FMK+ provides a home for a new generation of producers covering a wide range of electronic club music incorporating a musical spectrum including all things House, ElectroHouse, TechHouse, Techno and beyond. With more than 10 red hot releases within the first year the new FMK+ branch has received much love amongst DJ's and from an international dancefloor crowd and quickly turned out to be a launchpad for fresh, upcoming talent from all over the globe.

Branching out even further Formatik Records launched an additional subdivision in early 2018 – FormatikSounds. Focusing on the ever growing demand for high quality samples and grooves this specific and one of a kind label provides exclusive sample packs for DJ's and producers alike, starting operations with Format:B's “TechHouse Signature Cuts”, an acclaimed release which sees the upfront production team unveiling some of their best kept secrets soundwise, catering to the needs of every creator of contemporary club sounds of today.
