One of Poland’s most promising breakthrough artists of 2013, XXANAXX will release their debut Disappear EP via U Know Me Records on 12 August 2013. This 6-track EP also features remixes from xxxy, Envee, and Spisek Jednego. 

This Warsaw-based duo consists of 19-year-old Klaudia Szafranska on vocals and 31-year-old Michal Wasilewski (aka Lance Flare) on production. Klaudia first appeared on the national radar after becoming an audience favourite as a contestant in Poland’s X Factor, and soon after her search began for a musical partner – all while Michal himself was on the hunt for a vocalist.

Joining together to form XXANAXX in 2012, the duo combined their love for analog 808 beats, deep bass, and ambient space, with Klaudia’s soaring vocals, to create their first tracks, including the EP’s title track “Disappear”, which has already racked up over 200 000 listens on YouTube. Disappear EP also includes a remix from xxxy, who brings the sound of London in his house-leaning take on “Broken Hope”, pulling XXANAXX straight to the dancefloor. Polish producers Envee and Spisek Jednego close the EP with their own uniquely funky approaches to the music of XXANAXX. 

With work underway on their debut album, and a busy summer ahead touring the biggest Polish festivals (including Heineken Open’er), the future is brighter than ever for this promising electronic duo.

PRÈMIÉRE: Loic Minel - West Is Far [Mange_Moi]

The sand lay a golden brown by the side of the road. The sky was lit up radiant rays of pink and orange. Soon the rainy season would come and wash away all sign of this place. The houses would be battered by the damp and the trickle of water might even lead to a flood. The grasses would grow long and frutifully under the damp of autumn but for now they would continue to bake beneath the heat of the magnolia sun. This was a beautiful place and it was theirs. 

Malka Tuti return with a new EP in the form of a collaboration between Kris Baha and Dreems. The pair deliver tracks under the moniker of Die Orangen and are remixed by Alessandro Adriani.

After Sulk Magic’s auspicious debut release, the label returns for its second chapter of left-field cuts. Bird of Paradise curates this one with a similar mind-set to the former; a strong natured collection of tracks which all portray a consciousness of marked ingenuity and a desire to defer from the regular dance-music-model.

Berlin’s Thomas Freudenthal kicks off the record with a portion of hypnotising middle eastern flavoured chug, leading into Kieran Holden’s slow-burning, melodic anthem, ‘3 or 4’.

Freudenthal - Rapax Apicem [Sulk Magic]

The cave was illuminated with the glow of flickering torches. The walls were lined and engraved with ancient markings indicative of tradition and bygone heritage. This was a special place within which magic happened, the caves of Wabi Sabi. Many had sought entry to the sacred prism but had struggled to break through the intricate rock structure. Now as they looked down upon the space they wondered if they might ever leave. Who would want to return to the outside world?

Jakam is next up on Malka Tuti delivering an intriguing EP. He is remixed by good family friend of Ransom Note, Moscoman.

Twardowski - Dance Till The End [UKM 017]

XX▲N▲XX are a Polish electronic music duo from Warsaw, formed in 2012. The band consists of Klaudia Szafrańska (vocals) and Michał Wasilewski a.k.a Lance Flare (instrumentals). 

Klaudia age 19 and Voo age 31 formed XXANAXX in 2012. Klaudia is originally from Konin, while Michał is from Szczytno. They've met in Warsaw. Klaudia after appearing in Polish edition of X Factor was looking for a producer and Lance Flare was in a search for a vocalist. Both needed just one meeting to decide they want to cooperate with each other.

They share the same interest in experimental electronic music. Their compositions are full of anologue sounds, deep bases, ambient reverbs and their beloved Roland TR 808 drums. This mixture combined with Klaudia's voice makes an unusual music experience that takes listener to a higher level of relaxation. The genres that they feel connected to is chillwave, witch house and electronica.

At this very moment the duo is working on their first LP, the first EP titled Disappear will be released in one of the Polish finest electronic labels U Know Me Records during the summer of 2013.

XX▲N▲XX - Broken Hope [UKM 024]

First single from forthcoming EP.



After 9 months Twardowski returns with a sophomore EP on Uknowme Records. This time he messed with the catalog numbers a bit: the EP - titled "Terms Of Endearment" - skipped a few numbers and will be released as UKM030 to commemorate the author's birthday.

Just like the previous installment, the new EP also covers a specific facet of life. This time it's all about the dynamics of relationships and giving voice to the eponymous "Terms Of Endearment".
One can expect Twardowski's collection of synths to feature prominently all over the album, combined with some clever sampling for a rich and warm sound. The EP is comprised of seven tracks, ranging from 90 to 110bpm (no one, especially the author expected to deliver a track as fast as 110bpm...), all instrumental save for chopped up vocal samples.

The cover was once again designed by the talented minimalist Edgar Bąk (edgarbak.info), this time by 'sampling' old fashion magazines to evoke the most basic imagery associated with being together: holding hands.

"Terms Of Endearment" (UKM030) is set for a 12" and digital release late JUNE 2013.
