Autarkic - Strange Alliances (Trikk's Selva Cosmica Dub)

Label: AEON | Release Date: 8th November 2019 | Cat no: AEON042 | Distribution: Kompakt

Tracklist:
1. Darlyn Vlys - Traca Y Pólvora
2. Darlyn Vlys - Traca Y Pólvora (Cooper Saver remix)
3. Darlyn Vlys - Serpentine
4. Darlyn Vlys - Serpentine (Speaking Minds & Amarcord's Club Tool)

AEON is a label that’s really in a rich vein of form. Following on from the success of Jenia Tarsol’s recent ‘Strom’ EP, which found it’s way into a myriad of tastemakers boxes, they welcome French man of the moment, Darlyn Vlys for a stunning EP.
The title track Traca y Pólvora is a powerful, melodic masterpiece. A driving, dynamic groove underpins an irresistible bass line anointed with, vocodered vocal snippets and huge emotional pads for an almost trancelike euphoric journey. Serpentine is similarly exciting, but darker in it’s approach. A relentless bass line is main feature here, with a broken beat just adding to the drama and sinister vocals complete the vibe with devastating effect.
Remix duties are fulfilled by Cooper Saver, with his first outing on the label, and label stalwarts Speaking Minds and Amarcord. Cooper Saver has been in fine form of late. His recent release, 'The Search' on Permanent Vacation was huge and is still being hammered in the clubs. Here he takes on Traca y Pólvora with a stunning remix. A slightly lighter take on the original with an easy groove and a moving bass line that makes this the perfect end of the night track.  Meanwhile, Speaking Minds and Amarcord take on Serpentine for their ‘Club Tool Mix’. Their approach is a dark affair, with linear moody elements throughout which takes the track into peak time ‘strobe and smoke’ territory.
A powerful and impressive package throughout here and yet another stamp of quality from a fine label. File this under Big Room Moments!

MBR378: Ayala - Journey (Musumeci Remix)
Release Date 10.04.2020

Casting a new chapter into MoBlack Records' repertoire, Musumeci embraces
Ayala's winter dance floor igniter and lends his signature electro-disco inspired
provision, taking the track on, for what it is essentially, a "Journey." The South
Italian DJ/Producer sets the 7:12 ensemble's energy high from the get go,
riveting electronic groove at the core, tempered hi-hat sears, kaleidoscopic
synth and poignant chords. Pulsating European flair while maintaining the
equatorial Afro House climate, Musumeci nosedives into a labyrinth Ayala had
previously set forth, colliding in parallel speed, with the track's compelling
ethnic vocals and lush atmosphere, through to a lustrous, sense-gratifying
finish.
When MoBlack dropped Ayala's Cosmic EP late last year, Journey's versatility
stood out as the ideal baseboard for reinterpretation, which A-side delivered
impeccably. After its elasticity was stretched taut and recoiled by Musumeci's
deft multigenerational fingers and a noir touch, it only comes naturally, and in
perfect order, that MB378 comes in full circle with Ayala's original mix. Journey,
in its blithe, earthen grace, comes on B-side, a welcome, unwinding, arrival.
Landing back, right at home.

Early feedback coming in from Terr, Seth Troxler, Kim Ann Foxman, Chloe, Catz N Dogz, Adana Twins, Skatebård, Anja Schneider, Erol Alkan, Tiga, Marco Passarani, Digitalism, AME, Alinka, Eli Escobar…

Joyce Muniz is back with the perfect follow-up to the taut electro of her ‘Glass Mistress’ release on PETS, this time back on her regular home of Exploited.
Following on from last year’s ‘Microdosing’ on the same label, she has once again excelled in creating a dynamic, charismatic slice of dance gold with just a sprinkling of pop sensibility.
‘Crystalline’ has a slightly more intense feel than its predecessor, with a snarling bass arpeggio swelling in teasing fashion over the crisp drums. A minimalist, clipped synth arpeggio provides a complimentary layer, with a woozy male vocal providing the rest of the required texture. A sassy, rapped, hip-house refrain is contrasted with airy looped harmonies which haunt the track in sensual fashion. Tense pads provide more drama and complete the retro-future feel.
Alt-disco legends In Flagranti provide a subtle rework, keeping the melodies intact but remoulding them with somewhat gentler textures and a more chugging tempo. More sensual and more laconically hypnotic with its tumbling conga rhyhtms and warm analog synths, it’s a very necessary addition to the package.

This is one of the first tracks me and my friend  Luke Anger have ever worked on. 🎹 🎸 Since then we have found our common ground and crafted more material and possibly an EP that will be coming your way in 2021. Super excited to reveal our work together! 👍

Release Date:
2020 has been quite the year, not only for obvious reasons but also in our release schedule. After welcoming the wondrous Cosmo & Kramer to the label with their nu-disco delights on ‘Bingo Fun’ EP, we now see SOLIDE family member, Kalyma, returning with a solo release in the form of ‘Clipper’.
It’s been a moment since Kalyma appeared on the label alone, having teamed up with D.Y.A. back in January for another edition of their ‘Operator’ series. In the control seat on ‘Clipper’, Kalyma follows up last year’s ‘Tanger Night Drive’ EP, bringing forward his innate knack for well-crafted rhythms.
On ‘Clipper’, punchy kicks lay the foundation alongside ticking cowbells and funky synths. Kalyma injects a certain glow with warm chords, all wrapped up in a distinctly juicy melody. The perfect soundtrack for sundown sets.

Geiling Agent

Premiere: Sobek - Geiling Agent (Musumeci Remix) [Secret Fusion]

https://soundcloud.com/tunnelvisions1 return to their home label Atomnation for a fourth fantastic release in the last three years. This six track excursion builds on the pair's warm, richly melodic and always hypnotic style with fantastically colourful results.

atomnation.bandcamp.com/album/end-of-time

Tunnelvisions is Emiel van den Dungen and Raynor de Groot. Both artists keep busy with their own solo projects (Milio and Coloray respectively) but continue to find fascinating middle ground when they come together in the studio. 2020 saw them step out on Moscoman's Disco Halal and Solomun's Diynamic, while they have also been remixed to great effect with influential DJs like Dixon and Tale Of Us playing the results. Now, though, they are back on Atomnation with another superb collection of cuts.

The undulating 'Acid Neverland' opens up with its succulent and supple drums overlaid with heavenly chords and glowing pads. Coloray's vocals are then layered in to bring some drive and attitude to this most compelling of tracks. 'King Cobra' is a dubby delight. Its airy hi hats, bulbous bass notes and tripped out melodic motifs all sinking you into a trance.

There is more angst and energy to the malfunctioning melodies and steel-plated drums of 'Mirrored Identities' while 'Waiting For The Morning' is a perfect dreamscape. It's a super widescreen track with deft pads coming in and out of focus, glistening melodies reflecting light and pulsing drums locking you in. 'Private XS' flips the vibe with more drawn out and sinewy synths gurgling and bubbling away as they ride up and down the scale like a slow motion cosmic explosion. Last but not least, 'End of Time' has the most pop hooks and catchy riffs of the lot. They dart about the mix as smeared pads and crunchy, punchy drums encourage you to cut loose.

This is another masterfully cohesive collection of colourful dance floor cuts that take in pop, techno and synth music and skew them the unique lens of Tunnelvisions.
