Fallin (Giorgia Angiuli & SQU4RE Remix)

Anja Schneider further demonstrates her creative versatility and musical evolution with ‘Aura’ - a collaboration with singer/songwriter Sophie Hunger. 

The relationship between the pair goes back to Anja remixing the track ‘There Is Still Pain Left’ from Hunger’s 2018 album ‘Molecules’. A track which slipped under the radar through 2019 but enjoyed a resurgence in the second half of 2020 with a number of radio plays from stations desperate for music which fitted the more thoughtful, slower pace of lockdown life. This unforeseen consequence relit a creative spark. Conversations happened between the two Berlin-based talents and the idea for ‘Aura’ was born.  

Despite living in the same city, the collaboration was recorded remotely between the Blackhead Studios where Schneider is based, and Hunger’s apartment kitchen-come-studio. Despite this physical separation ‘Aura’ oozes emotional resonance. Hunger’s lyrics shimmering with an intense yet fragile quality over Schneider’s deeply felt melancholic soundscape. A joint expression unashamedly coloured and shaped by the shared experience of living through a typically brutal Berlin winter during continuous pandemic lockdown. Feelings spelt out by the lyrics in ‘Aura’

Bring me to the place with all the strangers
Dance me to the end of the blue moon
Let me move back to the house of dangers
Make tomorrow  come soon
Make tomorrow come soon

In the longest of all nights, meet me at the channel
Lets Carry the light to the end of the tunnel
Carry the light to the end of the tunnel
Carry the light to the end of the tunnel

SDK - What They Want (The Remixes) [XYZ045]
Release Date - 11.26.21
Stream - https://xyzlabel.lnk.to/WhatTheyWantRemixes

SDK launched onto the scene earlier this year with the release of their first project - What They Want. With a sumptuous blend of heady melodies and signature vocal hooks, the Vancouver-based duo’s debut on TOR rested perfectly at the centerpoint of underground and familiar. As we step into winter’s grasp, we’ve revisited the project with a revamped touch from two of the scene’s finest; we present What They Want (The Remixes).

Armen Miran is a vital pillar of the deep & melodic scene. With his distinct blend of organic folk tones atop powerful electronica, he’s the godfather of Armenian deep house. Through releases on his own imprint Hoomidas, he’s inspired so many modern producers. We enamoured to welcome him to XYZ, as he whisks What They Want in classic style. Playful house drums get us moving, while ominous synthetics envelop the groove. The vocal chops ebb too and fro throughout the arrangement, with big dancefloor moment’s a-plenty within this Armen masterclass.

Argentina’s invigorating pairing of Nacho Varela & Cruz Vittor has proven illustrious in recent times. They’ve been producing some of the most vivacious & sought-after remixes and edits on the planet, alongside original material on Anjunadeep and Shanti Moscow Radio. The duo comes through again as they twist What They Want to fit their scintillating sound. Swirling melodics stir us into the groove, as a punchy bassline ignites the vibe. A luscious build takes things to another level, offering yet another Nacho & Cruz weapon for the DJs amongst us.

Fight for freedom, Disobey my dear friend
Explore the Magnificence of this Craziness where we decided to incarnate, to play, learn, create, connect and be conscious.
Surf the warm wave of  round sounds, of  deep house, chill house, dark house , minimal techno, psy tek, progressive...
I like to play 4 hours or more, to travel in different parts of people's personality/ bodies.
I played in Goa/ India, Paris, Burgundy /café de la poeterie and Mammouth Festival september 2020, La havana/Cuba, started in 2016 producing and 2018 mixing.
