Who are you?
We are Stavros and Constantinos. We make music together under two aliases; “Stevie R & Parisinos”, and “After Altamont”. We also run an experimental record label based in London, Inside Out Records. 

How did you discover this track?
Rakesh Chaurasia is an Indian flautist, who plays the bansuri, an Indian bamboo flute. We were amazed by a live performance he released on YouTube and decided to edit it. 

Why did you choose to edit it?
We love incorporating old musical elements with electronic music. It is at the heart of what we do both as Stevie R & Parisinos, as well as After Altamont - predominantly however with Greek folk instruments. We saw this as an opportunity to explore another culture and sound.

What are you next plans?
We are preparing a live set, and have many releases planned over the next year. As always, we are looking for new talent to try as best we can to help and support them through our label too.

Vilnius based producer Shkema makes weird music for weird people. He spent ages with the analog synthesizers, looking for that right tone color. Then he added guitar sounds and various percussion. His strange and off voice component came last. He stays up late into the night, finding peace in his mind, imagining stories and creating music around it. 


That’s how Room of Men Eaters was born: a collection of absurd short stories and invented words coming straight out of his mind, whose aim is to draw you into the twists and turns of the night.


« Tas Malonumas »
Lithuanian word 
Def: meaning That Pleasure
Exemple: conversation between a young,  inexperienced person and an elderly person who’s near death's door. The old one is telling the young one how life is an unceasing search for pleasure. 
Track: takes the form of a mental stroll that takes you far, far away.


« Room of Men Eaters »
Human expression of cannibalism
Def: absurd situation in which men and women eat each other in a room
Track: the contrast between the absurdity of the situation and the apparent normality of speech told by the vocoded voice of Shkema is just astonishing. 


« Sarka Syrkaza »
From the future
Def: meaning “super sarcasm”
Exemple: one day you wake up in the morning and you feel that something within you has changed. All seems to be nonsense and you start to look at everything through the grey glasses of sarcasm. One might look enjoying oneself, but in reality this is an extremely draining state of mind.
Track: musical expression of that state of mind


« Je n’aime pas les fêtes » 
World expression
Def: parties are boring
Track: Shkema remix of his friend Afrodelic is a wacky version that contrasts French lyrics talking about how disastrous parties feel with a beat that just makes you want to dance.

Tracklist: 

1 - Shkema - Tas Malonumas
2 - Shkema - Room Of Men Eaters
3 - Shkema - Sarka Syrkaza
4 - Afrodelic - Je n'aime pas les fêtes (Shkema remix)

PREMIERE: Shkema - Tas Malonumas [Hard Fist]

MM Discos returns to Asia for their next release, specifically to Seoul, to present the talented producer "Celex", yet another example of the inexhaustible quality of underground Korean music. 

Celex, formerly known as Cabinett, is no stranger to electronic music, having spent years developing his own sound where house and deep were his common dominators. This time, the Korean producer moves towards a more "disco" and organic sound. 

In "Capa Disco Works", Celex delivers 6 tracks in a "balearic" key where arpeggios and psychedelia go hand in hand, creating the perfect soundtrack for a Mediterranean vacation. Indeed, the album was crafted by Celex following a holiday in Mallorca. 

Imagine what the result would be if Giorgio Moroder had spent a weekend at the legendary "Pikes" with only his synthesizers and a good dose of LSD for company; that's what "Capa Disco Works" sounds like.

PREMIERE: Celex - Tanzen [MM DISCOS]

Magic Words, a new project from NY-based producers Eli Cohen and Peter Hargarten, make their debut on RNT with the Wabi Soba EP, a perfect summertime record. If the title track sounds a bit familiar it’s because it’s been in Harvey’s hands for a while and has made many appearances in his sets around the world.
Based around an emotive and dreamy loop, the song basically embodies Balearica, dripping with Spanish guitar and wistful, melancholic harmonies. Toronto’s Jex Opolis turns in a massive remix that preserves all the delicate texture of the original and lays it lovingly over a pulsing clubby drum foundation. Already getting a huge response in the RNT crew’s club sets, this is a special record that’s got some serious summer anthem buzz!

Last Front

When someone wakes up in this condition, they can never tell how long they have been going for; the night? the weekend? the whole week? is this just a perpetual state? It's hard to even know whether to talk in the first, second, or even third person, such as the depth of blankness in the soul... Such as the Depth of Haze. 
Optimo affiliate and Night of the Jaguar honcho Mr TC makes a splash on Hard Fist for their first release of 2019 and Khidja has managed to get his hands on the stems starting the year with a bang!
Gay Haze boasts heady live bass and flute are the elements which Khidja have brought out of the awesome original which punctuate the eastern vibe which slowly builds as the faint hiss of vocal haunts the back channels. As the track builds so does the hiss and the echo and the menace and the sense of dread and urgency. 
Andrei Rusu and Florentin Tudor have had an exceptional 2018 as has Thomas Lea Clarke, and this is the dream start to the next year... no time to reflect, no time to make resolutions. Here we go again!

One of the nicest guys in the scene Luca Venezia aka @CursesForever is known for his unique blends of New Wave and Post-Punk with his ghostly vocals and guitars, punctuated with flashes of 80's EBM and New Beat. Whether it's performing live at the late Andrew Weatherall's Convenanza Festival, DJng in the main room at Circoloco DC-10 or indeed his own productions which often exploring the darker side of 80's Italo-disco, he continues to grow legions of new admirers. 

A few years back he launched his own imprint @OmbraInternational and the label soon established itself as a quality outlet for lovers of this unique brand of synth laden, bass guitar inspired electronica. Recently we collaborated with the label and a selection of the Ombra family to support '30 hours for Beirut' with Ballroom Blitz and Palestinian Radio Alhara to raise money for those most affected by recent event in Beirut. Over the course of the coming week we're delighted to share the sets during this radio event via the Sinchi Channel.

OMBRA INTL Label Showcase - Curses (Beirut Fundraiser)

Creative offspring of the musical fantasies of @Tushen_Rai and @CorneliusDoctor, Hard Fist brings together a passionate, supportive and activist party scene. Celebrating a globalized - but far from rootless - dancefloor where Turkish psychedelia, Lithuanian cold wave, Central African percussion and Indonesian polyphonic chants blend, Hard Fist crosses time and borders with a singular attachment to the folk music of trance, the kind that marks spiritual gatherings and festive rituals. Shaping the technological meeting of man and machine, the Hard Fist sound brings the experience as much on the dancefloor as in the calm of a Bedouin tent, always off the beaten track, with a free heart and clenched fists.

The label has been releasing collective records with artists such as Bawrut, Balam, A-Tweed, Omri Smadar, Matias Aguayo, Fantastic Twins, Philou Louzolo, Deena Abdelwahed, Curses, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Martin Noise, J.A.K.A.M., Omar Joesoef, MR TC, Pletnev, Anastasia Zems, John Parsey, Errortica, The Juan MacLean, Khidja, Roe Deers, Cosmo Vitelli, Ground, Sascha Funke, Fargo Devianti & Vongold, Daniel Monaco, Fringe Society, Elfenberg, Timothy Clerkin, A-Tweed, Ko Shin Moon, Lokier, Pletnev, nICo, Strapontin, Simple Symmetry, Que Sakamoto, Kubebe, Jonathan Kusum, Kaan Duzarat, Los Ninos Del Parque, Feller, Mekine U Teksi, Bab, Linja, Lion's Drum, Mishell, Ayma, Kincaid, Balam, Juan To Tree, Mytron & Ofofo, Niv Ast, Damon Jee, Thomass Jackson, Rina, Fabio Me Llaman Soltero, Hipless, N.O.Y, Oded Gafni, Radial Gaze, Fabio Fabio, Omar Joesoef, Da Iguana, Neskeh, Warum and all artists that collaborated to our edit series Re-Phrase Collection...
