Chillout

Pedro Capelossi [REFRACTION]

REFRACTION label boss Pedro Capelossi joins forces with Aeikus this August for their collaborative ‘Red Shift’ EP.

Hailing from Brazil but now residing in Barcelona, Pedro Capelossi has spent the past decade honing his deep oriented sound which meanders from Deep House to Dub-tinged Techno via the likes of Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas, Nick Warren's The Soundgarden and Madloch’s Sound Avenue among others. 

Here he pairs up with Aeikus for the fourth releases on his own REFRACTION RECORDS, sonically leaning deep into a deep dub house and techno territory.

Title-cut ‘Red Shift’ leads and sees the pair lay down a near eight minutes of spiralling intertwined dub echoes, murky atmospherics, gritty stabs and low-slung drums. 

‘Reality Check’ follows next and employs subtly unfurling dub chords, cinematic, tension building pads and sporadic resonant lead licks running atop a sturdy rhythmic foundation.

‘Mist’ opens the flip side and embraces a more light and airy aesthetic via ethereal textures, shimmering metallic tones and glistening modulating synths. 

‘Side Effect’ then concludes the EP with a robust rhythm section, classic bubbling dub echoes and weighty low end pulsations all dynamically evolving and unfolding throughout.

Making their label debut with the first interpretation of ‘Supernova’ is Pablo Bolivar & Nacho Sanchez. 

Hailing from Spain, Pablo Bolivar has been a fixture of the deep house underground for the better part of two decades. Revered for his sultry grooves and organic design, the Cantabria resident and Seven Villas label boss channels languages of varied musical landscapes, churning them into his own complex rollercoaster of intricate dubbed out house and techno. 

Of late, fellow countryman Nacho Sanchez has been a frequent production partner of Pablo, bringing his Detroit/Berlin coax of deep elegant techno for a creative synergy which has found the duo thriving. 

Now, paired once again for their Refraction debut, Pablo and Nacho deliver a heady interpretation of ‘Supernova’. While maintaining the elusive spirit of the original, the Spanish duo craft a sweeping sonic experience all their own, a transcendent journey into an wintry hinterland, where minimalistic grooves and submerged designs surface from their dubbed-out architecture, onwards to a finale meditative percussive arrangements.

Supernova

Pedro Capelossi - Supernova (Pablo Bolivar & Nacho Sanchez Remix) [REFRACTION]

Leading the release off is its title and showcase piece 'Supernova'. 

Built around a free-flowing breakbeat storyboard, Pedro works tonal motifs and warm swells with haunting atmospherics and granular textures. Haunting and timeless in equal measure, it makes for an enchanting eight-minute journey, which not only sits as one of the Brazilian’s most introspective works to date but sets the tone for the label going forward.

Making his label debut with the lone interpretation of ‘Plans & Plants’ is Retza. 

Hailing from Australia but now calling the UK home, Retza has firmly etched his place in the deep and organic global movement. With well over a decade of production experience, the London resident has showcased his exotic sound via All Day I Dream, Balance Music, Kindisch, SATYA, Sound Avenue and his own Retza imprint, amongst others. Also an accomplished DJ, Retza has travelled the world showcasing his unique selections and exquisite programming skills, while also holding a weekly residency on London’s highly regarded Bloop Radio. 

Now, following a remix for YokoO’s SATYA imprint to end the year, Retza opens 2024 making his Refraction debut with a groovy rendition of ‘Plans & Plants’. Taking a more direct dancefloor approach, while maintaining the elusive spirit of the original, the Aussie native constructs a fluid rhythmic core, complemented with meticulously manicured percussion, acidic motifs and timely vocal fragments. It’s this amalgamation of sound which ultimately makes for a versatile and club-effective version; a brilliant re-imagination that’s likely to find favor with a broad range of DJs across the coming months.

Dub Echoes EP

Genning - Room 3 (Alexander Bogdanov Remix) [REFRACTION]

With his “Dub Echoes” EP, Genning brings his dubby and raw sounds to REFRACTION RECORDS for the label’s fifth release.

Closing the EP, New Zealander artist SUBSET makes his debut on the label with a refreshing interpretation of “Inside Train.” Describing his style as “four parts dub, one part deep house, equal parts minimal and techno, dusted with an organic blend of evolving atmospheres and live filtering delays,” SUBSET delivers exactly this in his remix.

Also making his REFRACTION debut with the lone interpretation of ‘High On Your Own Supply’ is Dubtommy. 

Dutch producer Tommy Lemmers aka Dubtommy first emerged in 2021 with ‘Covenant’, a three track showcase for Germany’s Mixcult Records which earned praise from renowned artist Andrey Pushkarev. 

Immediately noted for his immersive soundscapes and evolving dancefloor constructions, the Amsterdam resident would go on to record a series of new projects for Mixcult across the next two calendar years, while also adding Electrolux Real MusiQ, Limitation Music, Superordinate Dub Waves and his own Stately Records imprint to his discography. 

Always selective in his projects, Dumtommy now arrives on Refraction in fine fashion with his first release of the year, a deep mesmerizing take on ‘High On Your Own Supply’. 

Opting for a decidedly more minimal and straight forward approach, Dubtommy brings the production closer to the dancefloor with billowing tonal themes, wispy atmospheric refrains and a mature no frills approach to arrangement.

THE DUB CHRONICLES

Pedro Capelossi - High On Your Own Supply (Dubtommy Remix) [REFRACTION]

Making his label debut with the lone interpretation of ‘Cosmic Void’ is OHM. 

Long a student of the game, Iceland born, Denmark based artist Bjarnar Jonsson aka OHM has stayed true to the spirit of techno for the better part of three decades. With an amalgamation of deep, dub and charmingly meditative techno, the Copenhagen resident has more than etched his place in the genre’s history. 

Recent offerings via Greyscale, KONTAKT, Nordic Voyage, spclnch and his own OHM Series imprint, continue to show Bjarnar’s deft production hand and borderless approach, one that often lands in a creative space that works well for a broad range of astute selectors. 

Now, following a spring  remix of ‘Conclusions’ by Philipp Priebe, OHM adds Refraction to his resume with a stunning rendition of ‘Cosmic Void’. 

Staying true to the qualities of the original, but lovingly reshaped and rearranged into something familiar, yet new, OHM applies some soulfully intricate 4/4 pressure, which makes for a version that is percussive and rhythmic, with just the right amount of atmosphere, the ultimate dancefloor weapon if you will.

Pedro Capelossi - Cosmic Void (Ohm Remix) [REFRACTION]

The cruising vibes of ‘Cosmic Void’ sets any preconceived ideas of Pedro’s music alight, forecasting meditative propulsions and unfolding textual drifts. 

As somewhat of an extension of his previous experiments, Pedro’s dubbed out chord stabs provide an enduring main theme, while a wonderfully detailed second act is sure to cast a spell over the dancefloor.
