After an astonishing SK001 remix that left us craving for more, we simply had to bring Elmono back for a grand expedition on Spitskool. Hailing from Cardiff but finding solace in Lisbon, this maestro has graced revered labels like Cold and Tectonic Records. And now, after a six-year hiatus, a new full body of work emerges, surpassing all expectations. Brace yourself for a collection of intricate, analog jams, tailor-made for every nocturnal moment.

First on the voyage is 'Release,' where organic samples mingle with resounding percussion. A smooth acid baseline carries this delicately emotive composition, never straying too far from the established path, yet perpetually meandering within the structured groove, propelling us forward.

Following suit is 'Fields of Shells,' an awe-inspiring MPC workout. Immaculately crafted drums, a formidable break, and an 808 jam unite to create a stunning piece of club artillery. The acid and stabs transport the mind to two distinct otherworldly realms, converging within the unorthodox groove forged by the low-end percussion.

Enter 'RhythmTing,' a subaqueous grime hybrid that wanders through captivating sonic landscapes. Refusing to pause and fixate, the essence lies in the absence of focus. Percussive elements weave in and out amidst arresting 16-bit sound design and intricate soundscapes, ultimately carving defined sonic spaces that dominate the soundscape.

Prepare for an education in impeccable rhythm and looping with 'You Knows.' Elmono's hip-hop and jungle prowess take center stage. Flangers and phasers dance in harmony with a break that flawlessly complements a contemplative synthesis and sub-bass combination. This is the epitome of slow, moody, and sleek jungle at its zenith.

Lastly, we have 'Way Cool,' a minimal roller tailor-made for those ethereal moments illuminated by 4 AM smoke machines. A tense and unsettling acid line harmonizes with the percussion, seamlessly intertwining with the vast expanse and atmosphere. Elmono has birthed an unequivocal and unmistakable sound, unapologetically his own.

For the remixes in this chapter, we have the label heads Maroki and Coralie, each offering their distinct reimaginations. Coralie's reinterpretation of 'Way Cool' echoes uncomfortable sound design reminiscent of Aphex Twin, challenging the very fabric of club-oriented music. Infused with his trademark bass-heavy kicks and subterranean work, accompanied by clicking percussion, it's the acid's metamorphosis that elevates this piece to the realm of peak-time, left-field delight.

Finally, we encounter Maroki's remix of 'Fields of Shells' - an unyielding and ferocious endeavour. A relentless 4x4 kick, overpowering acid, rolling percussion, and earth-shaking sub-bass levels test even the most robust foundations of any given club. Brace yourself for an unapologetic and unrelenting journey into the depths.

Ploy - Endurance @ Drift Radio 19-10-23

Wenn man den Sound von @el_sandovas und ihn kennt, kann man sich gut vorstellen, wie ein 16-jähriger mexikanischer Junge Progressive House und Trance in Jugendclubs in Mexiko City kennengelernt hat - sein Mix ist ein Beispiel für den proggy Sound, der derzeit die Menschen auf den dancefloor bringt. 

Mit seinen eigenen Worten: 
"Dieses Mixtape spiegelt meine letzten Gigs wider. Dabei kombiniere ich alte Hits aus vergangenen Jahrzehnten mit frischen und modernen tech house, progressive und trance tracks. Lehn dich zurück und freu dich auf eine Reise zurück in eine Zeit, in der es Tanzflächen ohne Schnappschüsse und smartphones gab."

Gespür für den Groove und Leidenschaft für das Experimentelle beschreibt Lysanders Sound gut. Geboren und aufgewachsen in Weimar, hat er seine musikalischen Wurzeln tief im House, Leftfield und in Electro. Schlagzeug-Unterricht und Papas alte Platten prägten seine heutige Affinität zu experimentellen Übergängen und Klängen, die immer wieder Bewegung auf die Tanzflächen und in die Dresdner DJ Szene bringen. Dort ist er in den letzten auch regelmäßig mit Veranstaltungen im Dunstkreis der @reinewaesche in Erscheinung getreten. Seine Offenheit, Wissbegierigkeit und Toleranz haben ihn darüber hinaus viel zum Reisen angetrieben. Unter Anderem in Griechenland und der Schweiz konnte er seinen Sound stetig neu erfinden. Neues und Unerwartetes halten daher immer wieder Einzug in seinen Sound, ohne sich jedoch den Wurzeln ganz abzukehren. @lysanderdj
