Crosstown Rebels - part 3

Stefano Miele, al mixer Riva Starr non ama affatto le celebrazioni. Sul suo sito ufficiale non scrive una biografia, ma lascia soltanto un elenco di articoli che danno l'idea del personaggio... ma forse non raccontano la sua musica, ovvero il motivo per cui, pur facendo musica dance di grande qualità, sia diventato anche una stella del clubbing. La sua "I Was Drunk" è una marcetta divertentissima, non solo un brano da club. Il suo remix di "Splendido Splendente" della Rettore, rende finalmente giustizia a un piccolo / grande capolavoro della musica italiana.

Da lungo tempo si è trasferito a Londra e da Londra con la sua label Snatch! collabora col gotha del clubbing internazionale. Il suo più recente singolo, "Get Naked", la realizzato con un certo Fatboy Slim, forse il dj più influente degli ultimi 20 anni. Non per questo Stefano / Riva ha rinnegato Napoli e la sua Campania: il suo stile resta colorato, divertente… non certo minimale… e per questo è vicino, musicalmente parlando, a gente come i Sud Sound System, coi quali nell'estate 2011 ha pubblicato "Orizzonti".

Premiere: Jonathan Kaspar - Zarun [Crosstown Rebels]

Out now on vinyl and digital - https://lnk.to/CRMCD035

Let​ ​your​ ​mind​ ​wander​ ​free​ ​with​ ​the​ ​first​ ​in​ ​a​ ​new​ ​annual​ ​compilation​ ​series​ ​from​ ​Crosstown​ ​Rebels, allow​ ​us​ ​to​ ​introduce​ ​Spirits.​ ​Label​ ​founder​ ​Damian​ ​Lazarus​ ​has​ ​compiled​  what​ ​he​ ​describes​ ​as​ ​“a​ fresh​ ​psychedelic​ ​journey​ ​into​ ​the​ ​mind”,​ ​aiming​ ​to​ ​bring​ ​together​ ​a​ ​collection​ ​of​ ​new​ ​artists​ ​from​ ​both his​ ​imprints.

dubspeeka​’s Lyssa opens the album with a sturdy bassline, eerie synths and a haunting melody reminiscent of yesteryear. Followed shortly by Audiojack​’s Reverie; a heavy kick from the start is succeeded by spoken word on the subject of meditation. Rowee and Know Kontrol ​incorporate poignant wooden percussion in the intro to Amarantro, the song features absorbing lyrics and a delightfully oblique melody. Be Mine by Siopis featuring Ellbee Bad gets straight into the action with hard-hitting reverberated low notes, steadily building up through sentimental vocals and enticing synthesis. A minimalistic xylophone and drawn out synths form the intro of Magit Cacoon​’s Nonsense. Jonthan Kaspar​’s Zarun is a sensory delight, littered with unique percussion, a muted kick and siren-like midi sounds.

Alice Rose seduces in Another Way produced by Raw District​. Her voice, similar to that of Bjork, perfectly encompasses the heavy bassline and hard-hitting percussion. Robbie Akbal has an ear for a great intro, mysterious sound effects and gradually building drum sounds form the basis for Tavarua. Nico Stojan & David Mayar have gone balearic with Killing Your Lover, featuring vocals from the incredible Jan Blomqvist​. Dance Spirit featuring Fab Morvan are up next with Voices, a journey through spiritual vocals and bassy reverb to a rolling kick and percussion-heavy ending. Finally, Pale Blue finishes the album on a high with Journey Into Light, a gradual intro leads the way for an exquisite, yet minimalistic melody and enchanting female vocals.

Skeleton label owner Dubspeeka has seen huge success since the release of his debut album Population 50201, just over a year ago. Leeds based Audiojack are rapidly rising on the house and techno scene, the duo recently enjoyed musical outputs on Sasha’s Last Night On Earth, as well as the revered Mobilee. Receiving a nomination for Best Track at the Vicious Music Awards not long back, Leonardo Gonnelli has been rapidly building momentum in the scene producing and performing under his new alias Rowee. Siopis, or you might know him as Silversurfer, returns to Crosstown Rebels once more after co-producing the label’s very first release back in 2003. Juggling his time, the Berlin-based producer also runs his own imprint MANGALI.

Quickly becoming one of the most admired female artists on the techno scene, Magit Cacoon has recently remixed the likes of Steven Wilson and Dast. Cologne based producer Jonathan Kaspar has wowed audiences with his groovy sets worldwide and most recently remixed David Mayer on Objektivity. Formerly Vernon&DeCosta, since 2013, Vernon Bara Massimo DaCosta have been producing deeper, darker house music under the alias Raw District. Alongside releases on established labels such as Souvenir Music and Defected, the duo have played renowned Belgian festivals such as Extrema Outdoor and Wecandance.

Long time friend of Lazarus, Robbie Akbal has had the privilege of living through various generations of house music. On the scene since 1993, his productions have evolved over time and the quality kept him at the top of his game. House music forerunners Nico Stojan and David Mayer have been causing a stir on dancefloors worldwide this year. LA duo Dance Spirit have appeared at several Get Lost events and previously released on sister label Rebellion. Set to release further music on Crosstown Rebels, Pale Blue have risen to the top since the launch their debut album The Past We Leave Behind.

Riva Starr's new EP 'Adventures In Drums' has a global span, with the producer seeking out fresh rhythms from virtually every continent. 'My Afrika' salutes the percussive power of the African continent, and it's also a bombastic piece of dance music. Essential, in other words.

Premiere: Riva Starr - 'My Afrika'

Out now on vinyl & digital release - https://lnk.to/CRM192

The brainchild of Damian Lazarus, Crosstown Rebels has become home to many big hitters. Following on from his remix of Satori earlier this year, Riva Starr delivers his own, three-part tribal beast, ADVENTURES   IN DRUMS.

“I’ve always had a crush on world music since my first EP War Drums   back in 2008,  so I decided to go back to that particular sound. I find   myself playing it more and more in the club these days. It definitely is an Adventure in Drums.” - Riva Starr

MY AFRIKA opens up the EP with what would appear to be a tribal leader commanding your attention as the wobbly synths draw you in. As the heady bass kicks in you can’t help but succumb to the rhythm. On EUROVOODOO , alien sounding synths are weaved amongst high hats luring you into a trance-like, hypnotic state. EL SONIDO leans towards a faster, flamenco style sound with tribal singing beckoning you to   the   dancefloor.

Riva Starr is the alias of East London based Stefano Miele. He has long been a staple in the club scene bringing dancefloor fire to some of the world’s biggest stages, from Glastonbury to Japan’s Fuji Rock. His credibility as an artist has led to collaborations with some of the industry’s biggest players, including the likes of Green Velvet, as well as remixing for a number of high-profile musicians such as Wiley and London Grammar. Founder of Snatch!, 2017 was a monumental year for the label having reached its 100th release.

Berlin-based house and techno wizard Emanuel Satie brings together a plethora of talent for Addis Ababa on Crosstown Rebels. Ninetoes, Mowgan and Matador all join the party to complete this epic EP.
Satie says of the release that it’s “​an homage to worldwide collaboration. While travelling through Ethiopia I recorded traditional musicians, brought the sounds home to Berlin and made electronic tracks out of them with my friends Ninetoes and Mowgan”.
EP opener ​Injera, ​produced with Ninetoes, is a mysterious and bumpy roller. ​Argew Neka, ​made in collaboration with Mowgan, adds tribal song and brings a delicate yet hypnotic groove to the table. Matador’s remix of the latter turns the track completely on its head layering futuristic elements over a harder beat.
Emanuel Satie’s ​career has blown up since he came to our attention in 2016 with his rework of Late Nite Tuff Guy’s remix of ​I Get Deep, w​ hich hit the top spot in the Beatport charts. He’s won the coveted Best Producer award in the DJ Awards and had a string of releases signed to impressive imprints including; Saved Records, Moon Harbour and Knee Deep In Sound. This year saw his track ​Don’t Forget To Go Home ​given the accolade of Essential New Tune from Radio 1 tastemaker Pete Tong at Miami Music Week.

Following the success of last year’s first Spirits compilation, Crosstown Rebels are back with volume 2. Expect “battle weapons galore” as Damian Lazarus unleashes eight tracks upon us that have been the biggest hits from his sets over the past year. Bathe yourself in a sonic soundscape that commands you to, as the man himself says, “play it loud”.

The second album opens up with the legendary Yousef delivering Heartbeat, a masterful track that perfectly balances light and dark, complete with euphoric strings. Next up is the seductive rhythm of Jenia Tarsol & Jinga with their offering - Jimjum.

On the B Side Nick Curly’s Maelstrom provides a darker, driving twist with a pulsating beat, followed by Emanuel Satie bumpy, rolling, inspiring master piece Fade, enlisting the divine and soulful vocal talents of Nanghiti.

The C Side features Jonas Rathsman bringing his tantalising touch to the proceedings next with Lost Youth. Its mystical tribal vocal sample and spiralling percussion glides into the Amazonian beats of Doorly & Tan Dem, who sample tropical birdsong on their offering, with a blistering piano breakdown.

Finally zotar aka Kenny Glasgow’s CIRCLE OF FEAR is pure afterhours hedonism. A throbbing beat drives the track forward with its enticing male vocal. Bartolomeo gifts us with a weighty number that utilises glitchy undertones on Celeste.
