One of the most important labels of the so-called Indie Dance/Dark Disco scene, Toulouse-based Esthétique, reaches its 28th release. Doing the honours, Russian Chandeliers, a new project formed by Niko Rapsis (Fringe Society, Modern Ruin) and Julian Grefe (Pink Skull, Clean Plate). Originally hailing from Athens and Philadelphia, respectively, the skilled duo met in 2014 in Berlin where they both reside and share a studio space. Their collaborative project, sprung from a mutual love of all things unsavoury and unfun, saw its inaugural release on New York’s SAMO Records. For their follow-up on the French imprint, these two dapper lifers offer up an EP of paranoid, muscular analog grooves fit for filthy basements and dirty dance floors.

Their powerful and vibrant “Silos” EP delivers four stunning originals and four top-notch remixes made with love by Zillas On Acid, Tushen Raï (SXDNS038) & Warum, Steady State, and Celestino (SXDNS009), yours truly.

Premiered here, Zillas On Acid’s interpretation of “A Fine Day For A Drubbing”. Formed by Thomas Roland and James Weissinger, long-time residents at Philadelphia's never-ending nightlife institution Making Time. Their post-punk and dilettante techno sonority paired perfectly with Russian Chandeliers’ work. The result of the rendezvous delivered one of the most striking pieces of the release with the highlighting going for the groovy percussive layer, the throbbing bassline and, yes, of course, the acid lead. Kudos!

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://esthetiquerecords.bandcamp.com/

Follow Russian Chandeliers as @fringesociety, @zillasonacid & @esthetique-lab, peeps!

After his seminal release, ‘Kaunas is the New London’, Lithuanian visionary Ton Globiter returns to Wrong Era with ‘Zur Xtasy’, an emotive, intelligent dancefloor gem. Once again, binding the Acid and Proto realms with elegant innovation. His signature metallic vocals rip throughout each track, accentuating the record’s enticing energy. ‘Yaze Gaze’ propels you into Globiter’s unmistakable percussion and flawless arpeggiated acid hooks. 
The slick  ‘French Line’ displays an innate gift for integrating his distinctive style into genre-bending production. Tasteful nods to late 90s breaks and Chicago-house sit within the depths of ‘Zur Xtasy’s’ tantalizing world. The endlessly infectious acidic flow of ‘Schweiß’ throws you into a mesmeric peak time hit where commanding vocals slice through. From beginning to end, ‘Zur Xtasy’ solidifies Globiters' ability to amaze consistently, pushing sonic boundaries with captivating, masterful skill.

Stepping out from his beloved Godot Lab cavern, Sourd keeps on pursuing his dream of becoming a one hit wonder performer. Bothering his neighborhood with repetitive patterns he recently decided to limit his way of producing to a very small amount of gear. Result is simple and doesn’t leave any space for useless toppings.

Split Street
"A Ghetto Tech inspired track, but voiceless. My mum doesn’t like me putting cursing lyrics in my music. And you can’t add a Ghetto Track voice without cursing, can you ?" Sourd

Split Street was remixed by Sapphist Eye, a french DJ and producer (with previous EPs signed on Lumière Noire and Les Disques du Lobby), bringing a very groovy dark disco vibe to the track.

Release date: 22nd of October, 2024.

40 Thieves are back on Roam Recordings, teaming up with vocalist Alona to release their latest cosmic disco gem, "Shake You Off". Fans of the trio (Layne Fox, Corey Black, and Jay Williams) might recognise them from the dance-floor classic "Don't Turn it Off (I Think I Like It)", their eclectic album "The Sky is Yours", or their previous Roam hit "Take Me I'm Yours".

This new single delivers a dance-floor ready track featuring Alona's vocals layered over lush electronic melodies.

The release also features two standout remixes from Roam Recordings alumni Shubostar and label boss Jason Peters. Shubostar kicks things off, maintaining the warm, inviting vibe while introducing a dash of Italo disco flair. Label founder Jason Peters takes a different approach, stripping down the original to create a deep, pulsating, heavy version. Rounding out the release are an instrumental and radio friendly edit of the original track.
This project has strong San Francisco roots, and we couldn't be more excited to collaborate with our Bay Area family on this release. But beyond our personal ties, we truly believe this record is something special.
