So Bahnsteig is arrived!  Pænzər style from the flanken.   Next is Eastern brüder, Romania youth, Khidja.   

Vibrations with wunderbar music on [Emotional] Especial and Forgotten Corners, they give us Balearic, Neu Wave and Kraut explosionens.

4 edits is a taste of their opening.   Infinita will make you bop in aisles.   Stehen nur noch.  Twist, schrie.   Then geist, is Droll’s House.   Britisch indie for dunkel fun.   Schleife de schleife.   Utsici is the jam.   Go.  Woop. Verschossen for finale.   The heimkehr.   Fun fun fun.   Can you tanz?

Was Auch Immer.

WAVES OF NOWHERE / pixelmaniaxx

I kicked off my asian tour in Hong Kong last weekend and visited Fauve radio to play some tunes before the show.

So here we are with Riotvan's second installment of the "Familiar Faces", showcasing what's happening with the label these days (a lot), making label-residents shake hands and welcome affiliated folks to the syndicate. Although this is a 'various artists'-format, the here gathered stylistic approaches and track-turned mindsets make a strikingly coherent body of work. Just another evidence of how Riotvan has evolved into a renowned think tank of likeminded artists and indicator of state of the art sonic bliss. 

Kicking off we find Perel immersing in yet another synth-driven stream, seeking continuation to her latest, widely praised full length-cycle, but this time bypassing Venus or rather "Super Venus" while floating off to other otherworldly dimensions.

Next in line are Black Spuma, i.e. Lauer and Fabrizio Mammarella, demonstrating via "Drumbaeck" what a match in Neo-Disco-heaven they are. A highly energetic beat, laying the grounding for a cheerful synth-hook and harmonies you won't get out of your head anytime soon.

Same goes for "Tropical Redux", the follow up by none other than Panthera Krause. A particularly elated affair, carried out by a funked up bassline and a catchy string-theme, sticking its neck out in Disco-realms, while maintaining a primetime-adjusted groove.

At this point it's about time for a premiere. Say hi to New Hook, an all-female power-force with their debut release. "FXART" comes as a well-versed exercise in reviving frigid 80ies leanings with a contemporary urgency and attitude. And that's just a glimpse on what's to come from Linda, Ilka and Juliane.

Chinaski, definitely no stranger to the Riotvan family, is taking on the 80ies vibe and hands in "Zeichen der Zeit", an unhasting ride through various galaxies, combining nostalgic synth-aesthetics with spaced out futurism.

Closing things off, it's label-mainstay Jennifer Touch cutting deep with "Bleed", an almost existentially emotive composition, exploring spiritual abysses lyrically, re-modelling emotional chaos within the overtones of the arrangement and even trimming things down to physical functionality within the track's progression.

"Familiar Faces Nº2" will be out end of October 5th on Vinyl and digital formats, both being distributed by Muting The Noise. Artwork courtesy of Karen from Studio M21N.

Tropical Redux

Juno Review:
Franz Scala was last spotted on Boredllo A Parigi back in 2016 - he makes the move to Bahnsteig 23 for this bold record of synth pop, early electro and much more besides. "Anacondas" has a cheery tone, all sunny synth lines and a laid back boogie rhythm section, while "Thai City" is more like a scratchy beat track for DJs to get clever with. "Shadow Dancer" is one of the record's stand out moments - a muscular pop burner for all 80s romancers to get emotional and funky to. "Rascals" finishes the EP off with some seriously tough drums and some body-popping electro styles that should go down a storm on the floor.

Tribes 1.1’ by Weird Dust is the third release by Brussels-based label and vinyl purveyor Crevette Records. The six tracks reflect an eclectic taste in hardware, melding organic and heavily processed sounds into a sort of musical retro-futurism. The percussion distinguishes itself, simultaneously free-form and mathematical, and certain to make you dance. Up close, ‘Tribes’ gestures at something alien, like going back to the jungle, but on another planet. This is what the future was like; notice the weird dust all around you.

PRÉMIÈRE: Weird Dust - "Solid Tribe 2.1.2" [Crevette Records]

'Budabeats Records' next release is built around the psychedelic shaman music of Hungarian self thought folk musician, Vajk Kobza. As a teaser here you can hear Perdu's remix of the title track, Kara Libanon. He keeps one of the main patterns of the original tune but by adding some extra percussion he turns it into an entranced tribal banger. Stay tuned for other remixes by Multi Culti boss, Dreems, and long time Budabeats family member, BéTé. Release date of the 12" single: 18.11.2019.

PREMIERE : Kobza Vajk - Kara Libanon (Perdu Remix)

Following his Christmas remixes collection, which already embodied that signature Slow Motion sound. Daniel Monaco is back on the Italian Dance label with first album entitled “Summer Twilight” to set things even more in motion. Monaco presents 7 tracks that are perfect for every context, with hypnotic tropical cosmic and dark italo driven basslines, this release is a surprising package of wonders.
