Hot on the heels of their second release, label founders Sem Marini and Mike Sharon put aside their "Ultra Knites" moniker and demonstrate their talents as solo artists for label's third release.  The "Knite Grooves" series kicks off with Mike's track "People", skillfully crafted with Jazz influenced rhodes and lush pads underpinned by hard hitting kicks and basslines.  A2 "Fields of Dreams" is a truly timeless track that really touches you, we can't put it into words here, it's far easier to just hit play on the preview above.  Sem Marini steps up for the flipside.  The B1 cut "Voltage" is well suited for peak time movement and brings a unique groove with expertly positioned stabs while the drum track is somewhat reminiscent of the the classic Amen break.  B2 "Music Takes Me" is a deep rolling groove which rounds up the EP nicely.

INFO
The artist known as ‘Fernando’ once washed up on the shores of Uruguay after a freak boating accident off the coast of Carilo, Buenos Aires in 2008. An incident that occurred while on a submarine studio mission conducting sonic experiments aboard a renovated and highly customised Uboat circa 1945. Free from constraints & operating outside territorial waters, Fernando was putting the finishing touches to a new collection of music, setting out to bottle those sweet and indescribable moments in suspended time and space when we feel weightless and surrounded by sounds richer than reality…. an inexact science, yet a universal privilege that life and ears afford us. Presumed dead, what in fact happened was a serendipitous encounter between the lucky survivor and a roaming associate of International Feel, who, during a walk along the sands of Punta Del Diablo, found an airtight USB stick clutched inside the hand of a partial amnesiac, dazed and shivering but with a sly smile stretched across his sun and sea worn face. It seems that whatever Fernando was looking for, he had found and thanks to the saviour of that day and (much further down the line) Fernando’s blessing, it sees the light of day on October
13th, 2014 in all good record stores.

The Masters Series Vol 2

On The 25th Day [Masterworks Music // Vinyl Only]

Two times 45 minutes of original music by Cloudface and Powder. All recorded in Tokyo, Japan in early 2016. Brought to you on a C90 cream colored cassette by wichelroede.

We met Cloudface in 2015 at the Rewire Festival in The Hague, and spoke about the idea of working together. We stayed in touch, and in March 2016 the Vancouver artist went to visit Tokyo in search for new equipment and synthesizers. During this trip Cloudface performed a live set at INS Studio, Shibuya, where resident producer Powder (Moko Shibata) joined him during that late evening to play live as well.

Cloudface and Powder teamed up again, now for a wichelroede tape release. The recording of Cloudface’s live set from that special event covers side A (Dogen-zaka refers to the neighborhood where INS is located), while Powder takes on the B-side with previously unreleased tracks, presented here to you as an ongoing mix.

No need to describe how this sounds – If you are looking for exciting new electronic music, this is it! With releases on Mood Hut and Going Good, Cloudface has proven his singular sound within the ever growing electronic landscapes, while Powder can without any doubt be considered as one of the breakthrough artists of this year.

“Dogen-zaka MIX / 88QQ99II11” comes packed with a white cotton tote bag screen printed in four colors designed by Fallon, which is exclusively available with the tape. As always, the tape and goodie are vacuum sealed in a transparent A5 plastic bag.

Cloudface / Powder – “Dogen-zaka MIX / 88QQ99II11” is exclusively released on cassette tape.

Bwi - Bwi - Into It

Powder is an up-and-coming producer from Tokyo who had put out only a couple of releases on Born Free and ESP Institute when Resident Advisor featured her on the monthly series “Breaking Through” this past August.
Inspired by her first visit to Cocktail d’Amore in 2015, she was so enthralled by the atmosphere, she started working on an EP for the label – capturing her experiences from the party.
The way Powder interprets sound is extremely personal and unique. 
The opener “Hip” has a driving sensual groove with hints of acid, seasoned with a good amount of loons and a mysterious foggy melody while “Heart” sounds like an italo disco aural translation of a shojo manga script for a “fun in the sun” tinged story.
On the flip side a slowmo industrial-meets-rainforest groove characterizes “Hole” followed by “Hair” in which she blends many layers of rhythm patterns together.

PALMS007

PREMIERE : Earth Trax - Deprive Me Of Air [LOST PALMS]

Melbourne Industrial/EBM scene representative, master mind behind Power Station/Power Cuts Kris Baha, contributes to Berlin based imprint Cocktail d’Amore with “Autora”. 
Intensely disturbed, sleazy and dirty, the title track follows the lead of the most traditional EBM beats. “Autora” barks with distorted oddities perfectly mashed to an involving balance. 
A factory ambiance out in the forest under a starry sky is “Brink Reality”. A slower paced gem for cosmic, stomping dance floors. While the beat-less A3 “Happiness Disaster” could open a scene of Twin Peaks 2999.    
“10Ways” settles with a thundering bolt of crushing steel, bouncing percussions and a vocal worth of Front 242’s legacy. 
Closing the EP on a romantic and sweet note, “Start Over” is an italo/wave hybrid ballad tinged with hope and brightness. 
Arp2600, Dave Smith Poly Evolver/Pro 2, Oberheim Obxa are few of Kris’s partners responsible for this outstanding expression of contemporary music.

B1 - 10 Ways

After his appearance on Born Free Records, Rollerboys Recordings, and Rett I Fletta, Johannes Wilkström aka Yourhighness contributes to Cocktail d’Amore Music with Stratofortress. 
The Berlin based imprint gathered techno guru Rrose, Born Free Records owner Samo DJ, and international Japanese wave representative Gonno, to offer an EP with a wide range of interpretations of the title track. 
The original mix is an acid based, industrial influenced techno banger. Highly energetic, for sweaty late-night dance floors. On the same side Samo DJ transforms the techno blaster into a funky EBM ballad, characterized by a deep male voice and a breakbeat groove. 
Rrose is on remix duty on the B-side. Stratofortress suddenly turns into a dubby, everlasting build up, that eventually implodes in the depth of a black hole.  
Closing the EP Gonno offers a slow-mo rework. Deep and very cinematic, this remix will please every Cosmic Hole connaisseur.

PREMIERE : Ackermann - Batu [Traktor Records]

Pre-order on Beatport https://www.beatport.com/release/lifting-spirits/2212111

Alan Fitzpatrick’s We Are The Brave has been successfully growing at a steady rate since its inception in 2017. With twelve releases now under its belt, including some mega club bombs like ‘We Do What We Want’, ‘Just One More’ and the mega collab ‘El Jefe’ between Alan and Sascha, the collection of artists releasing on the label are truly diverse. We Are The Brave parties are taking over the UK, showing the foundations have been well and truly laid for another epic year ahead.

One to nurture new talent and put trust into his feelings, Alan brings us a brand new artist, with his very first release of his career, Leonardo. “I recognised something special in the music he played me." says Fitzpatrick

‘Lifting Spirits’ delivers 4 tantalizing tracks, each unique with a unifying energy at their core. ‘Queztal’ with two versions up for grabs, has been a tried and tested track for Alan for much of 2017, which oozes that blissed out end-of-night joy.

“We Are Unity” is maybe the punchiest track of the release. It has that infectious 90’s deep house groove with a truly energetic female vocal. 

"When you hear music this versatile that genuinely makes you stop dead in your tracks it’s not a hard decision to want to support that talent and be a part of realising their potential, regardless of whether they are well known or just starting out” says Alan.

The EP is varied, but with common themes of creative freedom and deeply textured sounds. Instinct, emotions, gut feeling. That's what it’s all about here.
