The mysterious 01FRBL imprint launches a new compilation project titled ‘The Sound of Tel Aviv'. With Frau Blau label boss's Kadosh at the controls, we are treated to a tantalizing mixture of beats and melodies covering multiple genres, all held together with soulful elegance.

Featuring key local artists with the right stuff such as heavyweights Lonya, Niv Ast, Assaf Amdursky and across fourteen tracks, we are transported to the dance floor via disparate threads of groove from indie and deep house, to afro house and techno.

Opening with the downtempo delights of Lonya’s ‘Jaglavak’ and into the eerie pianos of Takiru & Mosko’s ‘Shutter Island’ the vibe is underground and story-like from the off. Lightening the mood, Ido Morali’s ‘To Carry On’ revels in repeating arps and smile-inducing e-moments. Alt Control & Millero’s ‘B*stard’ enters the second phase of the mix with stompy stabs and a rubbery bass to move them all.

Keeping up the wonkiness, Baroth & Nizri’s ‘For You’ is a masterclass in light and dark. Going tribal for the first time, the insistence of ‘Feel Dis’ by Accent marks a seachange in the mix toward the peak night sounds backed up by Aseal Weiss & Omer Bar’s ‘Lights Out’. Heading towards more beat driven fodder the afro house stomp of Assaf Amdursky ‘Eighteen and Ten, Please’ is pure heads down groove.


Softening just a touch, Rafeal’s ‘Perc Control’ does just that. A tight percussive workout which perfectly sets up ‘Remove Yrslf From School’ by Niv Ast, a groovy, spiky slice of late night house music. Rounding out the mix we move seamlessly between genres. Osadon’s ‘Chain Reaction’ is smooth and deep at pace, while Roni Amitai’s ‘Sherry’ has nuanced touches of minimal.
Penultimate track, ‘Algorithm’ is a pure 303 playland leaving ‘Space Train’ by T-Puse & Guy Maayan to soothe the soul and leave the crowd begging for more.
