First Light

Moonbeam’s "Alive" will once again cause a major stir on today's dance floors. The highly sophisticated composition anchors around a deep and touching theme that will lead to summer-like feelings amongst the party people. Aptly adding taylor made remixes by big shots Paul Thomas and Paul Hazendonk, Moonbeam's new "Alive" will create the perfect dance atmosphere for every self respecting DJ.

Continuing on from his Odyssey EP released in 2013, Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles creates atmosphere and space whilst exploring waves of sound and rhythm, and the power of colour. With Sonne Ryan creates music to structure itself around a pulse, rather than the pulse being the defining point. 

The title track begins with “a very subtle set of melodies that repeat almost without confidence, and then gradually give way to a huge collage of colour and power”, as Ryan describes it. Not relying on a conventional beat, it’s a prime example of how an analogue synthesiser can create the power and momentum of a rhythm section. From the distorted waves in 3 Chords, growing and shrinking, to the rhythmic waves of constant speeding up and then slowing down in Recovery, it’s the Moog Voyager, Prophet and tape delay that make up the core sound of the EP. Whilst tracks like Helios, Haunt and Think Tank see West play live drums and acoustic guitar.

“I’m often looking at art in exhibitions and I always think to myself ‘why the hell don’t I have this much colour in my work?’ The answer in part I think is down to synthesis. It is very difficult to create colour without it sounding plastic. Colour in music is both the note combinations and the actual timbre of the sounds. There are lots of instances of very colourful ambient sounds, which I took great care to create for each song, using various methods – from passing analogue synths through chains of effects to chopping up random sequences of recordings and forming tiny collages." – Ryan Lee West 

ABOUT THE ARTWORK:  

Resembling the colour and vibrancy in his music, the cover art was created by South London artist Supermundane, who was also responsible for the artwork of the Odyssey EP.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Some might be surprised that London based electronic producer Ryan Lee West, the man behind Rival Consoles, shares a home with contemporary classical composers such as Nils Frahm, Ólafur Arnalds and Peter Broderick. And yet they have a lot more in common than expected. Fascinated by sound from an early age, Ryan chose to dedicate his time to studying, experimenting with and producing sound graduating from De Montfort University in Leicester. One consistent element in his musical journey has been his desire to create a more organic, humanised sound. Ryan often drafts early ideas on piano, violin and guitar, although the end result is much more electronic-laden. As an accomplished sound designer he has repeatedly performed at the Tate, and recently created a bespoke audio-visual performance for Boiler Room at the V&A. Ryan is currently composing music for a soon to be announced BBC production.

LIVE:	
	
After supporting Luke Abbott on his recent UK tour and I Break Horses on their North American tour in spring, Ryan will debut his new live set with a special release show in London, followed by a string of West Coast U.S. dates culminating in Decibel Festival in late September – more details to be announced soon.

Worldwide: bit.ly/SSXUBEPUBBCamp
NZ Itunes: bit.ly/SSXUBEPNZItunes

Recorded in The Upbeats’ studio and mixed by mastering engineer Stuart Hawkes (Amy Winehouse, Rudimental, Disclosure, Katy B), SSXUB sees these bass music brothers-in-arms unleash four bin-rattling cuts that draw on their twinned production talents.

Shapeshifter and The Upbeats solidified their in-studio bond while they were working together on the Shifter’s chart-topping, platinum-selling album Delta and, as The Upbeats’ Dylan Jones explains, their latest partnership on SSXUB has allowed them to create a set even greater than the sum of its parts.

Shapeshifter and The Upbeats’ armies of supporters will have a chance to find out what SSXUB delivers when the EP rams speakers and dancefloors on Friday 12 September, spearheaded by ‘Bloodstream’ dropping on 22 August.
Standby to feel the combined impact of Shapeshifter multiplied by The Upbeats.

KlangKuenstler & Shemian - Spiel Mir Das Lied Vom Glück

This Is The Investigation is a sonic exploration. The six-track EP from consummate producer and sound engineer, Moody Good, ventures into a realm of experimental sounds and textures, journeying through a dark, deep narrative devoid of any familiar dance music structure.

Released for free today as the 50th release via NEST/OWSLA, This Is The Investigation is a gift to Moody Good fans but it also conveys a message. The six productions from the EP act as a calm before the storm, a precursory body of music that precedes a heavier, more menacing release in months to come.

This speech captures the very essence of whats going on right now all over the world… more so now than ever.  I wanted a way to use the sample during my live set, so I took Charlie Chaplin s speech from “The Great Dictator” and made a song around it.

Layered with driving heartfelt pianos and LFOs bouncing every which way,  “The Last Dawn” holds a fist to the powers that be.

About to head off for weekend shows… 1st stop to visit you guys in Houston before heading to Global Dance Festival at Red Rocks. The venue has been a dream of mine for over 3 years.
