Synkro - Look At Yourself (Djrum Remix)

Watermark went through loads of different incarnations before it ended up how it did on the vinyl release in 2012. I was never happy with it.

The vocals were there as a place holder, until i found something I could use to fill the space.

This is a very rough early version with way too much reverb, badly EQed beat and an abrupt end. So apologies for that, but I thought people might find it interesting.

The closure of fabric has seen a reaction that has been completely humbling and overwhelming to all of us on the team here, from over 150,000 signing a petition of support to raising in excess of £300,000 in donations to help our legal fight. 

Support has come from every corner of the industry, with fundraising events at a number of different venues being held up and down the UK. This response perfectly encapsulates everything the electronic music community represents.

Both fabric Records and our artist led label Houndstooth decided a release that embodies this spirit would be a further powerful way to demonstrate the collective power of our community. We asked artists associated with both labels to donate a track to the cause, needing to act fast we gave a deadline of just 3 weeks in total, from inception to final master. The brief was simple, we asked for a previously unreleased track, either brand new or an alternative version of an old classic.

The response has been far greater than we could have ever anticipated, with an array of amazing artists delivering stunning tracks. Given this generosity every track that has been submitted is featured on the release, meaning an incredible 111 tracks make up the final running order, presented in alphabetical order.

Due to touring and time constraints many more artists could and would have like to have been involved, and we can’t give enough thanks to all the labels that have generously allowed their artists to contribute.

In the era of the playlist, this compilation represents a comprehensive overview of electronic music from the outer fringes of experimental explorations right through to music aimed squarely at the dancefloor.

Ahead of the court date which will determine the long term future of fabric nightclub we’d like to present this compilation as a document of this moment in time but also as the perfect embodiment of everything fabric is and stands for.

INFO:

[PL]
"THE PREQUEL" EP to nowy materiał częstochowskiego producenta Łukasza Szydy, czołowego reprezentanta rodzimej sceny muzyki elektronicznej/footworkowej, współwłaściciela wytwórni Sequel One. 
Znany pod pseudonimem Symbiotic Sounds, dostarcza nam dziś kontynuacje pierwszego swojego wydawnictwa sprzed 6 lat. Należy pamiętać, że "Everybody Loves An 808" była pierwszą footworkową EP-ką w Polsce i odniosła duzy sukces za granicą, znajdując silne poparcie u czołowych reprezentantów owego gatunku; u DJ Rashada, DJ Spinna czy też Addisona Groove. W ciągu ostatnich lat muzyka Symbiotic Sounds była grana w setach na całym świecie oraz w różnych szanowanych audycjach, gdzie jednocześnie mocno ewoluowała.  
EP-ka "THE PREQUEL" zawiera 5 utworów i została wzbogacona o remix brazylijskiego producenta Cesrv, który zasilił w ubiegłym roku katalog Sequel One EP-ką "High". To materiał jak zostało wspomniane nawiazujący do "Everybody Loves An 808" ale mający bardziej letni charakter. Krótko mówiąc inspiracja muzyką juke/footwork w wakacyjnej odmianie. Całość została okraszona brzmieniem syntezatorów, między innymi maszyny perkusyjnej Rolanda 808.  Symbiotic Sounds używa ciepło brzmiących sampli w których nie brakuje również polskich akcentów, a także pioniera tego gatunku DJ Rashada. 
Materiał posiada poziom i oryginalność, przez co artysta wystaje spośród innych. W tym wydaniu, zabiera słuchacza na miłą wycieczkę pełną słońca i głębokiego bassu, w niespotykanej odsłonie - jego własnym stylu , które można nazwać unikatowym.

"THE PREQUEL" EP is a collection of new material from Polish producer Lukasz Szyda, a representative of the electronic/footwork scene and a co-owner of the Sequel One label.
Known for his Symbiotic Sounds moniker, he is now ready to deliver a continuation of his first release from 6 years ago. It's worth noting that "Everybody Loves An 808" was the first footwork EP in Poland, and it proved to be a big success abroad too, gaining strong support from the top artists in the footwork genre: DJ Rashad, DJ Spinn and even Addison Groove. During the last few years, Symbiotic Sounds' music has been played in DJ sets all over the world, as well as on respected radio shows - it reached places where it could evolve into what is is now.
"THE PREQUEL" EP is made up of 5 tunes and has been blessed with a remix coming straight from our Brazilian friend Cesrv, who contributed to our collection with his "High" EP released on Sequel One last year. The material on this release, as mentioned before, is closely related to "Everybody Loves An 808" but it has definite summery vibes. To sum it up perfectly, it's music which draws heavy influence from Footwork and that feeling during sunny summer holidays. On top of this, the prominent synths and mandatory Roland 808 drum kit, make up for a listening experience which will definitely move your feet (or even your body). Symbiotic Sounds uses warm sounding samples, which don't skimp out on Polish accents, and also the pioneer of the genre - DJ Rashad.
In its entirety, the EP definitely has that production quality and personal style the artist stands out for. With this release, Symbiotic Sounds takes you on a sunny, good-vibes-filled ride on the back of gritty footwork baselines, served in a completely different flavour - his own way that we are very confident in calling unique.

A1. For the New Dawn (feat. Agama)
A2. Restart
B. Stargazing (feat. Om Unit)

Cosmic Bridge continues its recent streak of releases with a three-track EP from Spanish producer Vromm that reinforces the label’s dedication to expanding the lexicon of UK dance music. For The New Dawn embraces wider melodic and compositional potentials while remaining anchored in the same bass-heavy, forward thinking mold fans have come to love. Taking inspiration from beyond electronic music, Vromm puts forward the sort of versatile take on drum & bass that has already earned him praise from Resident Advisor and Mixmag. 

The EP opens with the title track, an anthemic electronic ballad for the summer featuring Agama. Written over the space of a few years, "For The New Dawn" combines a steady minimal beat with delicate sound design, bright synthesizer chords with splashes of improvised piano and horns. Agama’s voice brings the whole thing together, and her catchy chorus is sure to bring joy to many an unsuspecting dancefloor over the summer. As Om Unit puts it, "this will be the last tune of many a clued up DJ." "Restart" closes the A side with a simple, minimal vibe. Originally intended as a dubstep production, the track morphed as Vromm upped the tempo. Beginning as an eyes-down roller, Vromm adds layers of melodies and rhythms to reach something more euphoric yet still subdued. 

The B side is dedicated to "Stargazing," a 9-minute collaboration between Vromm and Om Unit. Arguably the label’s most ambitious production to date, "Stargazing" is also a perfect snapshot of the influences and intentions that have underpinned it from the start. Began as a melodic draft by Vromm, the track came together as the two producers added ideas from jazz, ambient and fusion. The result is an epic ride that blends organic and electronic, a production not obviously aimed at the dancefloor and yet still capable of shaking dancers alive. 

From the New Dawn is released 6th July 2018 on Cosmic Bridge Records on 12" vinyl and digital formats.

Vromm - For The New Dawn (CBR030)

I've always been a massive fan of Boards of Canada, if its not obvious already!  10-11 years ago I stumbled upon a bootleg recording of one of their extremely rare live performances at the Warp 10 Birthday party in 1999.  The closing tune at this show has always remained a mystery to me.  As far as I know it has no title and has never been released.  It's quite possibly one of my favorite things they have done and really is a shame it never came out.  You can hear the original bootleg recording (quite bad quality) here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYEZueAelKc

Fast forward to Summer 2012...  Since I am a huge nerd I decided to take this bootleg recording and re-produce it for fun.  Using the recording I laid new drums over the existing drum patterns (almost 100% accurate to original), replayed some synth parts and the bassline.  The only thing I didn't try to re-create was the original vocoder parts and some random samples so I used the bootleg recording for that.  I was tempted to make a shorter 4-5 minute version but I figured I should preserve the piece in its intended length (although the length was most likely due to it being a live jam).

Downloads limited to 100 (sorry I still haven't upgraded my account).  I do not claim rights to the original nor do I intend to ever sell this.  Not sure if I'm violating anything or not with Soundcloud so grab it quick!

Update : Ha! Somehow the 100 download limit thing got bypassed, so download freely!
Updated Update : This should work! http://soundcloud.com/selftitledmag/boards-of-canada-untitled/download
