FRONT DE CADEAUX
Le Pédé BPM
File under: Slow Voodoo / Urban primivitism / Queer Freak

Front de Cadeaux was born in Bruxelles when roman Dj Hugo Sanchez met a Italo/Belgian guy called Dj Athome. The first touch was in the middle of a sauna party for big hairy men, hot and wet. Dirty sex and sweat dreams were just the click. They soon discovered that their music universe were created to become one. Both in love with the green psychedelia and both disappointed by the gay clubbing scene where people dance if only the bpm is at a very high and stupid speed level.

After having dirty sex, they spent days listening and sampling vinyls played at the wrong speed, discovering and enjoying the sexy power of the supreme “rallentamento”. Front de Cadeaux, a name that will leave Belgian’s fan of the band Front 242 astonished, confused and upset, started to create their own musical experiments that impressed Hugo Sanchez’s mate Rodion (his brother in the Alien Alien project), who put his poetic and supreme production touch on it.
Fabrizio Mammarella joined us after listening this manifesto called Le Pédé BPM. His energy was exactly what we needed to give you more acid.

We don't care of the BPM phags, we just want a world where the body and music makes love slowly all night long and we will fight a war to make it happen!

B1. Mornington Coroboree

Two years after the release of his acclaimed debut the “GONG 3000” EP on I’m a Cliché, Jakarta’s best kept secret is back on Cosmo Vitelli’s imprint with four terrific original tracks. Closing the EP is this dramatic rhythm track that goes way beyond your usual DJ tool. Hand percussion is given a subtle beat repeat treatment, noisy bleeps, eerie vocal samples and arresting pads are used to great effect. It’s another example of Kusuma’s signature sound, tribal and psychedelic but refined and never out of touch.

PRÉMIÈRE: Jonathan Kusuma - Drum Shot [I'm A Cliché]

Deep in the jungle was an ancient burial ground. Many had been buried here during the turn of the nineties but little had happened on the site since. Now, however, there was a commotion in the bushes. Once again the music played loud through the trees and the thud of drums echoed in the carnivorous caves. This was a cemetery for those which had been lost, those which have gone unsigned and to be forgotten to the depths of time. One day they will rise again but for now they would remain underground, the death of house. 

I'm A Cliche label boss Cosmo Vitelli returns following the success of his "Last Train To Marzahn" EP last year. He delivers four cuts of glitchy house and chugging enthusiasm.

PREMIERE: Cosmo Vitelli - The Cemetery of Unsigned House Tracks [I'm a Cliché]

The fruit was luxurious and sweet. She plucked it from the trees within the grove, the tall fences which lined the beautiful green branches seemed not as fierce and frightening as they first had when she had arrived. The manor house cast a long shadow down the garden and in the distance she could smell the delicious cooking of her mother. She ran between the leaves excitedly for she had spent too long beneath the sun for now. It was time to retreat to the shade. 

Olde Gods return with a gorgeous sun kissed sound as part of their new Tapes project. Fun edits with a dance floor focussed twist for the adventurous dj.

PREMIERE: Olde Gods - El Javu [Tapes]

She licked her lips provocatively as she stared him up and down. In the distance there was music playing but the pair cared not for such ambience beneath the glow of the moonlight. Before them the waves rolled gracefully upon the dusty sand, the palm trees blowing delicately in the warm air. The sky was a bitter shade of black, the stars faintly visible behind the gloomy clouds. This was not some sort of peaceful paradise but a stormy romance on an island lost. 

Smagghe & Cross return following recent releases on Offen Music and our own Ransom Note Records imprint. The pair deliver an intriguing EP for Glasgow based record label Huntleys & Palmers.

@InsultToInjuryRecords is a brand new record label, run by @TimothyClerkin & bigger brother, @the-Ransom-Note Records. 

Setting sail on a techno-tangent / psychedelic-adventure, they present to the world their first release – the Zephyr EP, courtesy of Latvian-born, Tel Aviv-based artist @AnnaLann & French DJ/vocalist @Emmanuel-Caurel. 

Anna has previously released on Moist and Forming a Moon –she also runs the multidisciplinary creative art hub PentHouss. Most recently, Anna’s remix of ‘Cholera’ by C.A.R. was featured as the soundtrack to Gal Shenfeld’s spring/summer collection ‘Heroes’ at Tel Aviv Fashion Week 2018. 

On this EP, Anna and Emmanuel have created three slabs of downtempo techno weirdness that it would be utterly pointless attempting to describe in words. 

Release Date - 25/05/18

Tim Paris - Versions EP - MEANT028 -  PREVIEWS  - VINYL ONLY - OUT Oct, 5th 2018

London based French producer Mondowski follows a spate of recent releases on Relish and Ombra with a new club-oriented vision for London label and clubnight Snap, Crackle & Pop. Following his remix services on the label's first and 4th releases, Mondowski makes his full label debut with an electro inspired turn that takes inspiration from the encroaching gentrification of his industrial estate studio.
Lead track Sholay finds a mesmerizing path somewhere between extroverted 80's electro and celebratory spiritual transcendence and gets the remix treatment from Pinkman's Kris Baha who subverts the original by turning the electro backbone up to 11.
The EP's B-side, Negative Space, voyages into darker electro territories with Kraftwerkesque synths, rolling pads and a motorik bassline, all of which provide the launchpad for Flieche's Multiple Man to turn out a pitch black EBM banger. The Easter egg of the release, Hanalei, is a Krautrock sleeper hit and download exclusive.

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”.
