Fou (Poolside Remix)

‘Blue Ceiling’ is the new single by German minimal ambient-electronica maestro Jumpel, taken from his forthcoming fourth album "Bloc4". The track is available for free download from the Hidden Shoal Store - http://store.hiddenshoal.com

On ‘Blue Ceiling’, Joe Dürbeck continues his breathtaking collaboration with Chloë March (who contributed vocals to the 2010 single, ‘Edinburgh’). ‘Blue Ceiling’ has an utterly heartbreaking drift, its pellucid atmosphere like winter sunlight refracting through raindrops on a window pane.  

Jumpel’s new album "Bloc4" centres around the elevated yet lonely world of a tower block, each track poetically investigating its multi-faceted elements and spaces. The songs were written throughout 2012, with ideas collated, reviewed, developed and remixed. Following the wonderful results of his collaboration with Chloë March on "Europa" single ‘Edinburgh’, Joe Dürbeck presented the ideas for "Bloc4" to March and invited her to select tracks and develop vocal ideas. The results are stunning – and offer a perfect counterbalance to the more melancholic, spacious instrumental pieces.

Strangers

Out of Time

Coasting down the skyway
Still talking in your sleep cant let it go
Trying to change a future
But how it shakes out, nobody ever knows
So rise above it
She whispers “don’t be reduced by another soul”
Hit the gas and floor it
You could return change the world, but need some more

Clock strikes, crash into forever
Got the sweet sound, ways when we were together
But then we broke apart, you took it to heart
Laid it all on the line, now were left out of time

Heaven better find a way
But for now were left here taking shots
Flying with a tail wind
All across the city streets, getting caught
Truth i want it
Hard to handle all the lies that brought us down
Western union breadcrumbs
Couldn’t get back there even if i wanted now

Clock strikes, crash into forever
Got the sweet sound, ways when we were together
But then we broke apart, you took it to heart
Laid it all on the line, now were left out of time

Falling now were out of time
Falling now were out of time
Falling now were out of time
Im falling out of time 

Clock strikes, crash into forever
Got the sweet sound, ways when we were together
But then we broke apart, you took it to heart
Laid it all on the line, now were left out of time
Clock strikes, crash into forever
Got the sweet sound, ways when we were together
But then we broke apart, you took it to heart
Laid it all on the line, now were left out of time

OUT OF TIME

Higher Than This

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere the new music video for "Rye Fire" by MATTE BLVCK. Inspired by the elements of the bands they have worked with and moving beyond them, they deliver a soundtrack of sinister pleasures for an uncertain world as if it was everyone’s last night on Earth. I'm Waving, Not Drowning is MATTE BLVCK’s debut release and it captures the band’s affinity for dark synthwave while complimenting it with epic, gritty industrial anthems and unabashedly embracing their love of underground techno.

The release is available now on digital format & 12″ Vinyl. Pick up on Bandcamp: https://matteblackus.bandcamp.com/album/im-waving-not-drowning

MATTE BLVCK - Rye Fire

A warm welcome to the Hungarian producer talent SNYL on our imprint with his debut release "Sci-Fied". After releases on labels such as SINCOPAT, ICONYC, Perspectives Digital or Beat Boutique were happy to have two smashing Original tracks rolling down on our floor. Title track "Sci-Fied" comes along with a lot of energy and keeps the dark mood all over the full distance with a spacy vocoder highlight. "In My Head" with the beautiful vocals of Canadian artist Jessica Zese is the second track, having a mystic atmosphere and keeps the focus on a fabolous bassline. Returning to their JEAHMON! home, both Marc DePulse and Rafael Cerato teamed up for a remix and put their Capulet-fingers on "In My Head" with the typical handscript.

SNYL - "In My Head" feat. Jessica Zese (Marc DePulse & Rafael Cerato Remix)

MIMS is hyped to premiere an epic new remix of Fred Everything's sought after house hit "Here (Now)" by the king of space disco himself, Prins Thomas.

A 10-minute space disco journey as only Prins Thomas can deliver, his "Diskomiks" incorporates elements from both the original 2003 version and Fred's 2020 update.

Back in 2003, nearly 20 years ago now, Fred Everything released 2 albums  on Ralph Lawson’s 20:20 Vision, alongside a heap of singles and remixes. In between those albums, he released a single called 'Over You'. Unexpectedly, the b-side, "Here (Now)" turned into a bit of a hit!  

One fan was Ian Pooley, who always told Fred it was the his best track ever. And as recent as 2019, Ian picked it for a feature in Telekom Electronic Beats about his top 5 B-Side tracks, overnight boosting the Discogs price for the original EP to 100 EU.

Fred felt inspired to dig out the song from his archives. Finding all the original stems he couldn't resist putting a new spin on the song himself. But he wasn't done there and could see it being a good opportunity for reinterpretation. 

Fred tells us, "when I dug out this project, I instantly thought of Prins Thomas as I’m a big fan of his and could hear his cosmic touch on this. It helped that I was working with him on another alias project for his label at the same time. He felt bad that the remix was 10 mins long but I embraced that. It’s a rarity these days for music to really take its time to live and breath. Extremely pleased with the result!"

Digital is out later this week  but you can order the vinyl from a number of stores now.

Alright so this could nottttttt have been timed better! ❤️🥳🕺💃🥳❤️

Literally an hour after Boris announces that we can see the horizon of beautiful messy sticky dark noisy ravesssss, we are putting out our song about longing for the return of that culture! And I swear down this is just a truly wonderful coincidence! But it makes me feel really verrrrry happy. 🤗🤗🤗

The Blessed Madonna and I had a chat on zoom a few months back now and she was talking in the infinite and naturally poetic way that she does about, well really how everrrrrryone is feeling! And because we were writing it was being recorded! So I sampled it! And tuned her to be singing at times and I just reeallllyyy love it. And also an enormous big ups to the great Boston Bun who we produced it with. 
🤩 🥯 🍞 📠

It was jus Annie’s hottest record in the world on BBC R1 and is now out everywhere!!!
I feel excited. Is how I feel. Foreal.
