After the anthem Pedé Bpm, the italo/belgian duo Front De Cadeaux is back with a new heavy manifesto: Infodrogue.

Drug culture is processing slowly. Very very slowly. Pioneers as John C Lilly, Alexander Shulgin & Timothy Leary have begun this processing with scientific elements and experimentations coming from recreational use and human rituals. Unfortunately prohibition has interrupted this processing.

Words are lies without experience. In other words: prevention of drug abuse in a society without drug culture sounds to us just like a LIE. That’s why it doesn’t work.

Since the 70’s a lot of efforts have been done: scientists and writers have produced tons of words and concepts to explain and prevent drug addiction.

40 years later, drug (ab)use is still the same reality.

Infodrogue is a call.

We are proud to announce that Infodrogue processing has begun!

We want to communicate, we want to talk. Imagine you are desperately repeating Allo? Allo? .. and no answer! Maybe there is no one to answer to you at all... How would you feel if you needed some Infodrogue?

Belgian Dj Athome and Roman Dj Hugosan spent some nights together recording wrong speed sessions to find out the Supreme Rallentato. We found it.. but it wouldn't make this without their bro Rodion and his big army of analogue weapons.

The dub version made by JD Twitch from Optimo adds even more weight to the obscure vibe and leads the track in the field of the astonishing. Go through this to get lost in the empire of deep ambient dub.

JUNO REVIEW: Fresh from delivering a suitably intoxicating chunk of feverish tribal techno on their own Belly Dance Services stable, Hanzo & Yaman bring their trademark brand of percussive dance music to Tom Tom Disco. Title track "Tropicalas" is notably different to its predecessor, with the pair layering up wonky chants and South American style percussion over a looped synth bassline. It's hugely endearing and celebratory all told, and comes backed with two bonus cuts: the hypnotic ethno-techno throb of "Titaporn" and the quirky nu-disco/percussive house bounce of "Hola Hola". Of the trio of accompamying remixes, we're particularly enjoying the loose, acid-flecked breakbeat shuffle of Lily Haz's rework of "Titaporn" and Tony Disco's exotic, Middle Eastern disco revision of "Tropicala".

Tom Tom Clubber, DJ and producer from Buenos Aires, makes his debut in Discos Pato Carlos with three tracks that are a wakeup call.
"Concentrate" is an EP with a clear message, without frills or detours. His music speaks directly to the body and asks for movement. The EP includes remixes by the also Argentinian Carisma , with a delirious version of "Neo" and by the Chilean Alejandro Paz , who gives us an harmonized version of "Melter".

The origins of Front de Cadeaux can be traced back to a dating site for bears, some ten years ago. After Maurizio had spotted a Felix Kubin poster on one of Ugo's pictures, the two started chatting. Very much intrigued, Ugo invited Maurizio, who lives in Brussels, to play at a festival he organised in Rome. Shortly thereafter Ugo made Maurizio a resident of his Subwoofer night, one of the first bear parties in Europa that existed outside of the mainstream bear realm.

The two bonded over food of course, over their belief that dance culture is rotting from the inside, and even more over slow, heavy electronic music. You have to picture it: a flat in Brussels, a table with empty bowls and bottles, thick smoke and these two daddy dj’s listening to stacks and stacks of UK rave and breakbeat records on 33 instead of 45 rpm. Testing how deep and sexy these garbage records sound at a pace the bears can actually follow without dropping dead – Ugo & Maurizio baptised it ‘supreme rallentato’.

During those early encounters, their decade long dj experience merged into one, just like their vision that dance culture urgently needs a revolution. To them that means playing 90 bpm in a club at 3am whilst the promoters are shitting themselves, showing everyone that the body follows the groove, and not the bpm, a capitalist and macho construct that’s making crowds go numb instead of making them dance.

Around 2013, they officially started collaborating as Front de Cadeaux, referring to the Italian way of pronouncing Front 242, the Belgian EBM legends. “Le pédé BPM” (the bpm gay), their first release, followed one year later, with a Fabrizio Mammerella remix that kind of became an anthem in some circles. It's at the same time a celebration of their love for a slower groove as it is a queer manifesto, dissociating themselves from the mainstream gay culture in big cities, dominated by a horrible attitude and bad taste both in music and style. Second single “Infodrogue” came about after the drug line Maurizio worked at, stopped operating after midnight. Backed up by a bubbling bassline, it's telling the sad tale of a junk calling in and no-one answering. The references to culture and real life are everywhere, be it in the track titles of later releases – “Ouvre ta bouche” is a joke about Kate Bush, “Cogitate” a hommage to lsd wizard John C. Lilly – or their sound, which is impregnated by psyche music, mushrooms, dub, triphop and space rock.
Coming hot on the heels of the collaboration ep with long time friend Fabrizio Mamarella earlier this year, featuring their two oldest singles appearing on vinyl for the first time, came Front de Cadeaux’ new 12” on EMET records. “We slowly rot” is a manifesto and an epistemological breakdown of standard, empty club music, for in order to reconnect with what it should be about, our whole idea of dance music has to be deconstructed. As Front de Cadeaux militantly puts it: “every act of the human being is about transformation through destruction”.
