French artist Teho and Montreal based comrade Van Did have joined forces on this EP. Combining their talents for building powerful and emotional soundscapes, the duo have released an impressive EP called Hope on Stephan Bodzin’s Herzblut Recordings last year.

It’s little wonder that Teho & Van Did's music has found support from the likes of Applescal, Hernan Cattaneo, Moonbeam, Gabriel & Dresden and Deepfunk, Long Way From Home is a perfect example of their immersive, multilayered sound. Warm bassline, enchanting pads and escalating melodies make for an epic opener. Huacachina is a groovy and progressive composition yet powerful and cinematic.

French Duo, We Need Cracks, deliver a dreamy and captivating remix of Long Way From Home, duo has been catching international attention with very solid releases on labels such as Traum Schallplatten. 

Completing the release is remix by Daniel Zuur, Amsterdam based producer who deliver a deeper and melodic rework that still retains the energy of the original.

PREMIERE: Teho & Van Did - Huacachina (Daniel Zuur Remix)- Grrreat Recordings

Expectation of reciprocity
"Sozinho," performed by Caetano Veloso, sensitively addresses the loneliness that can exist even within a relationship. The song's inspiration came from a real-life situation: Clariana, the daughter of composer Peninha, was venting on the phone about feeling ignored by her boyfriend. This context lends authenticity to the lyrics: "Why do you let me be so free? / Why don't you stick to me? / I'm feeling so alone," demonstrating that feelings of abandonment can arise even when there's a physical presence, but an emotional connection is lacking.
The lyrics express the desire for closeness and care, without resorting to control or possessiveness. This is clear in "I'm not, nor do I want to be, your owner / It's just that affection, sometimes, is good," where the lyrical self asks for affection, not domination. The line "When we like each other / It's clear that we care" summarizes the expectation of reciprocity, while "You say you love me / It's just lip service" reveals insecurity about a partner's sincerity. The song reflects on the question of whether to be deceived or to deal with the other's immaturity, becoming an honest portrayal of the emotional fragility in relationships. Caetano Veloso's delicate interpretation strengthened the audience's connection, solidifying "Sozinho" as a classic about vulnerability in love.
So...

Short info:
"Silent Words" is a mirror of Sebastian Porter himself and how he creates most of his tracks. It is a journey of soundelements which wander and coordinate themselves. Like in every journey there are dark times with dark drudgery but also light, cracked open moments full of enlightenment. But it all makes sense after you look at the whole picture. You have to pay full attention while listening to these tracks to really feel them. The rhythm contains a lot of single sound fragments and percussive details inside each other which create an interesting sound. At the same time, those details create the essential contrasts in this story. The story of Sebastian Porter!
“Rolling Boy” and “Wild Wendy” on the other hand are much more direct, vigorus, clear and with focus. A wonderful addition to the first track because you know how you feel when you took a journey through yourself, excactly like this!

german:
“Silent Words” ist ein Spiegelbild von Sebastian Porter selbst und davon, wie er an die meisten seiner Tracks und auch Sets herangeht. Es ist eine Reise von Soundelementen, die wandern und sich gegenseitig dirigieren. Wie bei jeder Reise gibt es dunkle Phasen mit tiefer Schufterei und helle, aufbrechende Momente voller Erleuchtung. Sinn macht am Ende aber alles nur, wenn man es im Gesamtbild betrachtet und so entfaltet auch dieser Track die volle Wirkung erst dann, wenn man ihm in seiner Gänze die volle Aufmerksamkeit schenkt, sich ihm von Anfang bis Ende widmet. Rhythmisch greifen eine Menge einzelner Soundfragmente und percussive Details ineinander, die ein interessantes Klangbild erzeugen und alle nötigen Kontraste schaffen die eine Geschichte ausmachen. Sebastian Porters Geschichte!
“Rolling Boy” und “Wild Wendy” sind da wesentlich direkter, energetisch, klar und fokussiert. Eine prima Ergänzung zum ersten Track, denn wer einmal durch sich selbst gereist ist weiß, wie man sich am Ende fühlt, nämlich genau so!

Nils Hoffmann is back on Poesie with another remix EP, Drift, with two originals alongside remixes by Ben Böhmer, Fanz Alice Stern and Kalipo.

First we have the title track, a groovy late night swing dripping with a juicy electric energy and a firm beat. Gritty swells burn through the mix as the bassline chugs and percussions boom out over a warm soundscape. 
Ben Böhmer’s remix lays the track out with a lighter and more playful mood, giving the track a chilly swing while still maintaining its warmth and presence. 

Franz Alice Stern takes the reigns of ‘Drift’, giving it a brooding, low down swing and with plenty of deep seeded grit. The track hits hard and hits heavy while its down-tempo groove balances the energy beautifully.  

‘Feathers’ enters the scene now, and with it a collection of rhythmic synth hits crowds the focus, giving it a wonderfully hectic and energetic tone while the percussions drive the beat home and give it power on the floor. 
Showing his production prowess, the German producer Kalipo takes ‘Feathers’ for a ride, giving the track massive pressure and movement while still maintaining what could be described as a delicate groove and relatively light atmosphere. It’s not until the jagged bassline rips when the track starts to show its more sinister side.

Underwood's follow up work, Vélocipède EP, for Tanzgemeinschaft, is nothing short of masterful.
After a successful run on the Beatport Top 100 charts in both Techno and Melodic Techno & House, the Berlin based artist strikes again with 2 skilful, arpeggiated, cutting edge original works.
This time, Univack Records label head, Integral Bread does the remixing honours for TGMS with a serendipitous extension of Underwood's title track as he expands on the original's already ethereal landscapes and an uplifting, futuristic vibe.
