Tropical Animals Records returns after Nick Anthony Simoncino's latest release, with a new Italian upcomer. Andrea Comparin aka Munstac signs the most experimental ep of the entire catalog of the label. His work entitled Glicine opens with "Intro" a track with an Organic breath that intertwines with an electronic texture made of elements that color the whole song, "Laghetto Italia 61" is a dry and broken loop, with a groove that keeps you glued over time.
The Ep continues with “Distante 900,000 km”, a true and proper ballad of the future, profound and hypnotic. "Intro Glicine" is an interesting starting point for "Glicine" the song that gives its name to the entire ep. Incredibly sweet and heavenly, it directly reaches your heart. The pads and harmonies chase each other like two lovers, in an intricate and impervious rhythmic labyrinth at the beat of nature.
To close this incredible ep we have 2 remixes, one by the young Milanese ACIDGIGI that evokes the ethereal sounds of wisteria with powerful rhythmic parts and violent acid baseline. The other by the well-known Fabrizio Mammarella, who takes us 900,000km away into a futuristic world, where he expertly mixes all the sounds creating a solid and perfect remix for the dancefloor and beyond.

M.A.G.A. supporters are dumb and stupid, that’s the simple and plain truth. M.I.D.G.A. fans, in turn, are people with outstanding musical taste and tend to be open-minded and fun to be around, especially on a packed and sweaty dance floor.

In case you are still not familiar with the latter acronym, M.I.D.G.A. stands for “Make Italo Disco Great Again”, the result of the out-of-the-box collaboration between Parisian label Cracki and Hong Kong-based imprint Fauve Records. For the fourth volume of their acclaimed compilation series, none other than Mystery Affair (SXDNS202), Shubostar (SXDNS042), Sara Miller, COLE, Maltitz, and Romain FX jumped in with the best of their respective games and delivered their vision of how modern Italo-Disco-infused cuts must sound.

Premiered here, Sara Miller’s contribution to the gala comes soaked in bliss and good mood brought about by the magic concoction of a bouncing bassline topped with frolic synth layers and upbeat leads. After well-received appearances on Permanent Vacation and Live At Robert Johnson, the respected Berlin-based Irish producer held no punches for her beautiful debut on Cracki/Fauve. Kudos!

PREMIERE673 // Sara Miller - Cervo

From Sweden with Italo to Dresden with love. Stockholm's @djdjcity drops his first release on Dresden's Uncanny Valley with the COSMICOMICS EP, a 100% fun record for all the senses, deeply inspired by Italo Calvino's iconic short story collection.

COSMICOMICS borrows its name from a collection of short stories written by Italian author Italo Calvino, first published in Italian in 1965. The stories have inspired DJ City to a record that aesthetically draws from 80s Italo Disco and 70s science fiction films. In the book, each story is based on a scientific fact about the world and the cosmos whilst using fiction to ask how we understand it. Where Calvino's stories are comical and absurd, DJ City surrenders to the sublime and romantic and moves further into the metaphysical world that Calvino created to come up with three energetic and melodic tracks bursting heavily with fantasy and drama. Deeply rooted in dance music’s history, they shine with Hi-NRG-vibes, strict dancefloor commitment and little easter eggs like that Drexciya-reference in COSMICOMICS.

The cover of the record is a painting from 2020 by Swedish artist Jens Fänge called THE INN. We see a man in front of the entrance to a Mediterranean-style building and a woman in a window on the upper floor. The picture seems to have been broken up into several dimensions, and abstract details make it difficult for the viewer to know exactly what and when the scene is taking place. When shown in Shanghai, the painting was censored by government agents and had to be taken down. A testament to the power of the image. Perhaps it shows our main character, perhaps it shows us the author or the artist. Depending on who listens, who reads and who looks, a multitude of universes open.

Cosmicomics EP

DJ City - Moon Milk

British producer and label affiliate Radondo makes a striking debut on Wrong Era with his EP, 'Deluge'. His unique blend of influences, drawn from his time in the German Capital and inspirations within Italo Disco, creates a musical landscape that is both familiar and refreshing.

'Deluge' opens with the commanding 'Virtue,' a muscular track that propels listeners into an exhilarating peak-time setting. The persistent kick and guttural bassline launch the arrangement into an arp-led enigmatic journey. Metallic synth lines dance off each other amidst the anchoring instrumentation. A breakdown with Giallo atmosphere close at hand rises to blistering hi-hats and harmonious percussion scattering across the mix. 

As the dust settles, the second track, 'Centrale', picks up the pace and tows the line. A homage to the golden days of Synth-Wave and Italo Disco, 'Centrale' paints a dynamic and introspective picture filled with solid instrumentation and mystical melodics. A familiar arpeggiated tone whips back and forth whilst a rhythmic synth vocal phrase cries out. Building on the release of the central theme, an unmistakably Oberheim-led hook, characterized by its rich warmth, is beautifully complimented by the bassline. Radondo furthers his compositional flair, broadening the range and deepening the feelings. 

The title track, 'Deluge', is a swooning nod to the darker edges of New Wave. It features the basslines and vocals of the poetic powerhouse Neu-Romancer. Sweeping in with driving percussion and drunken pads, we are immersed in a dimly lit, smoky realm. This poignant track has Radondo debuting a piece with vocal focus . As rimshots tunefully click above tight drums, Neu-Romancer's bass rolls beneath, culminating in an arcane call and response between the lyrics and the machines. 

'Deluge' concludes with 'Overflow,' a track that pulses through a storming low-end dripping in gloom. A noise-led melody that descends tonally lifts the adrenal energy throughout. The cooling breaths that punctuate each section leave space for 'Overflow' to set a captivating tone, immersing the listener in the overall atmospheric experience of the EP. 'Deluge' is a testament to Radondo's innate ability to create a musical journey that captivates and enthrals.

“Whisper” is Aural Trace´s latest production, a 2-original track EP which gathers all the good things we love about the Berlin-based musician: Synth waves infused with powerful bass lines, upbeat percussive elements and that melancholia touch toying with our feelings and emotional boundaries that get us have his music on repeat.

Originally from Chile and now a resident of Berlin, Manuel Ortuzar, aka Aural Trace, is not a new-comer in the scene, with releases on Ombral INTL, Bordello A Parigi, Melopée Records, Play Pal Music, Melodize, Logical Records, as well as his own label Odd Pleasures he co-founded with Max Ferrer, his binom of their common project Random Atlas. At Thisbe, we are delighted to welcome him and his new EP among the label´s catalogue.

With “Whisper”, Aural Trace delivers another well-crafted EP, highlighting his mastery in music production, being also a mixing and mastering engineering by day.

The EP is completed by remixes by Rambal Cochet and Pyrame: Rambal Cochet takes the Goa Breaks route to produce a mix that drives the listener into an enigmatic self-reflective trip, while Pyrame brings the introspective voyage from the original mix into another side of our sub-conscience.
