AFFECT! - Different Sides

A requiem for what once was.
Echoes of a lost empire fading into the dark.




01-Elegy for a Lost Empire

Voici le n° 4 des Feillets d'automne. Ici, le piano suit le voyage d'une feuille emportée par le léger tourbillon d'une  brise d'automne : on y suit ses envols, entrecoupés d' arrêts, jusqu'à sa descente finale au sol

Emportée par le vent

PREMIERE : Sower - Kalpana (Kincaid Remix) [Nie Wieder Schlafen]

RELEASE DATE: 2018-08-13
LABEL: Nie Wieder Schlafen
BUY: www.beatport.com/release/mumbles/2357866

"With sweat and tears we can proudly present the debut release of Bristol's newcomer Sower. A humble artist as well as creator of the ambitious 'One Two Five' community. For months we worked together closely to finish off a weird and very diverse EP, that will finally see the daylight. The last time we put as much work into one release, was the debut of our homegrown and now beloved newcomer Quatri.

"Desert Wax" is the sound of Sowers - a perfect introduction to what the artist stands for and what he loves to play out. Abstrus and weird deformated sounds linger behind every corner - moody pads and ambiences create a fantastical atmosphere, which is backed up by uniquely arranged percussion. Tribal-influenced blows and instruments convince the listener of a wild and hypnotic ride, that can only be experienced in a desert made of wax.

Holding together the EP and working as a perfect bridge between in-and outro is "Kalpana". A production, probably closest to the standard formula, while simultaneously introducing truly unique arrangements. With seemingly restless percussion hits and various melodic introductions, Sower manages to create a firework of combined sounds. A clear & quiding drum pattern holds the track together and pushes it forward, while rumbling basslines, funky pads and tremolo leads bring a jarring dynamic to the table.

"Voola" is a touching piece of art, that delivers a convincing atmosphere of tribal festivities. Whopping drum hits & pulsating bassline rhythms are the beating heart of this production, while piano riffs and subtle atmospheric elements bring a sense of wonder, making the track feel alive and present. In this case, closing your eyes might truly teleport you to distant places.

With a hand for dancefloor productions, West & Hill delivers a more refined & structured version of "Wax Desert", while also giving it a new spin. Haunting flute blows, unforgiving percussion hits and pulsating synth pans, simply won't stop at anything. A remix that passes by with incredible flow and speed. 

As if this EP doesn't feel diverse already, Kincaid returns to NWS with his weirdest and most fun remix, yet. Building on fast vocal chop rhythms and a break beat formula, an uncountable amount of high frequency delays and low-end bassline hits, as well as funky, melodic implementations and electronic modulations result in a true rollercoaster ride, we still can't quite define. What we can define however, is that this is absolutely stunning.

With similiar funky foundations, but a little more structural clarity and guidance, Ciano is able to shed a different light on "Volaa". A downbeat with clear percussion hits and fantastic collaborations of various synths and pianos, build a special, jazzy flow. While vastly different from the original, the convincing atmosphere of a different place stays sound. As always have fun with this!

Bongo & Pusk "Phasers Set To Fun"/ GGCR011

With Varaz, we welcome yet another belgium talent to our family of artists. His "Reka" EP concentrates on straight forward productions, which come with a housey flair. 

Crisp groove arrangements and smartly placed harmonic sounds, manage to bring back an older way of producing music, which feels incredibly fresh next to current releases of the scene. 

The 4 tracker EP includes an array of groovy/ funky house tunes as well as an minimalistic storyteller, reminding us of the good ol' days. 

A wonderful spring release, that gets you ready for the summer.

Premiere: Silent Revolt -  Who I Am (SIS Remix)(Audiophile Deep)

PREMIERE: Martin Landsky - Attitude [Motek Music]

Artists: Martin Landsky (@martinlandsky)
Track Title: Attitude
Release Title: Attitude EP
Label: Motek Music (@motekmusic)
Catalogue No.: MTK052
Release-Date: 27.01.2020

Our first release on Motek for 2020 and it is a big one. Having delivered two huge remixes for the label, Martin Landsky is back with three track original EP 'Attitude' which includes Original and Acid Mix of the title track, and b-side 'Leipzig House'.

Attitude is perfect for finding your dance floor feet. Full of classic House orchestration from the warm keys texture, the bouncy bass line and 808 style hats. The track has added mystery within its lead line which adds contrast to the mix and is finished with the spoken vocal. The Acid Mix of Attitude is darker and brings more weight, perfect for the later hour. The sharp acid lead cuts through a production still steeped in groove and syncopation. A mix to get in your own zone and get lost too. Leipzig House as with the original of Attitude also has strong classic Deep House sounds. An evolving and warping bass line drives the track within a spacious mix allowing the syncopating groove to have maximum impact.

John Monkman stands at the forefront of the global electronic music scene. Known for his dynamic performances and cutting-edge studio productions, Monkman has earned a reputation as both a live music pioneer and a master of sound design.

Affiliated with some of the most prestigious labels in electronic music, including Kompakt, Ellum, Beesemyer Music, Siamese, and Anjunadeep, Monkman delivered the spellbinding track Siren for Kompakt and collaborated with Pete Tong on Ecstasis for Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio. His releases, such as the Komplex EP on Anjunadeep and the versatile Tune In Turn On EP for Ellum, highlight his remarkable range. With two Beatport number ones—his remix of Solomon Grey's Twilight and his single Don’t Have to Be Beautiful—Monkman has further cemented his influence on the global electronic music scene.

Equally compelling is Monkman’s remix portfolio. His remix of U Love for Sasha’s LNOE 100th release, supported by Patrice Bäumel and Sasha, showcases his creative versatility. His rework of Space Date by Adam Beyer and Green Velvet for Drumcode demonstrates the respect he commands within the industry. Monkman has also been remixed by Moby. In 2023, he reunited with Pete Tong for an official remix of Duran Duran's Give It Up, marking another standout moment in his career.

On the live stage, Monkman’s impact is undeniable. He has headlined festivals like the UK’s Noisily Festival, brought his live set to the Ozora Festival in Hungary, and performed at the Anjunadeep Festival in Albania. His recent achievements include headlining Rainbow Serpent 2021. The debut of John Monkman: Live at Coachella 2018 with The DoLab was a pivotal moment, revealing his innovative approach to live performance.

The year 2024 has been a defining chapter for Monkman. His latest live show, Pulse, premiered in Paris through a collaboration with Collectif Scale, breaking new ground with its kinetic light art installation. Filmed in a Paris warehouse on July 6th, this show delivers an immersive audiovisual experience that pushes creative boundaries. In the same year, Monkman released Khord on Anjunadeep, followed by three singles—Vader, Roller Vox, and MAYA—on Beesemyer Music.

Continuously evolving as both a performer and a producer, John Monkman remains a driving force in the electronic music landscape, with his innovative studio work and electrifying live shows securing his position as a leading figure in the scene.
