Raw Analog Funk duo Ben Men and Rob Malone are now stepping out with a brand new label project, Mondo Dingo Records. The Paris based indie promises to be a purveyor of all sounds deep and soulful and the first release comes from self-taught multi-instrumentalist Pinaud with remixes from Parisian based Peter Raw and the Raw Analog Funk band themselves. Pinaud's style is imprinted in everything he does - intense grooves, deep basslines and a lightness of touch that has helped make him a well-established musician and DJ in Rio de Janeiro. His mixture of organic sounds with the bass and beats of house music and plenty of soul and 70s disco overtones has taken him to events and clubs all over Latin American and labels like Manga Rosa and Barco do Amor. The Carioca self-taught multi-instrumentalist dedicates this EP to the "cidade maravilhosa." His stunning opener 'Afrojazz' is a lush, soulful house track packed with musicianship. It has live sounding broken beat drums, gorgeous chords and a real spiritual expressiveness in the Rhodes jams and glistening chords that leaves you feeling uplifted. Peter Raw has been playing the sax since the age of six, has studied music formally and has influences that run from house to jazz to hip hop. He has run his own Run With Us parties at the Batofar and has put out music on French labels Beat X Changers and Sounds Benefit. His version is more playful and upbeat, with swaggering drums and big loops, dancing chords making you move your hips and a perfectly sunny disposition. Raw Analog Funk aka Ben Men and Rob Malone have been key players since the 90s in their native France and beyond. They promoted at the legendary REX Club, have held various key DJ residencies and are co-founders of BTRAX Records as well as 45RDB Records, while also releasing under the BROZ Inc alias with artists like Mr K Alexi Shelby. They bring all their vast know how to a superb remix that has whispered vocal ad libs and jazzy chord work over a stomping Afro House groove. It's as perfectly organic and loose as they come. Last of all, 'Georges Brassens' is a real basement jazz house workout with super warm chords and great swing in the drums, off-grid percussion and steamy French language female vocals that add a certain je ne sais quoi. This is a bold and brilliant start to what is sure to become another essential label from the ever innovative Raw Analog Funk duo.

June 11, 2021 – The battle against the plague has raged hard for over a year. Around the globe, dancefloors are empty, layers of dust and broken bottles strewn across them…the glowsticks have long faded to black. But the Cologne mothership KOMPAKT has managed to prevail, bringing inspiration and hope through the message of music to a decaying humanity.

The Reawakening is finally in sight. It is only fitting that New York’s Steve Moore (of Zombi, Gianni Rossi and Lovelock fame) makes his return to KOMPAKT now with this foursome. Especially as his last release for us, “Frame Digging” (KOM 415) directly preceded the start of the pandemic.

AUTO SEQUENCE START – the time arrived for us to press the reset button. The cycle has completed.

art:cast special | Ramu

After contributing the third ride on Magic Carpet, Bristol-based producer Ramu delivers the next art:cast for the special series or in other words: Joe, Ramu's real name, comes up with an hour packed with energetic music skillfully switching back and forth between House, Breaks, Piano Acid, Rave and wobbling UK Bass-influenced tracks. What feels and seemingly is a potpourri of various styles in combination results in a brilliantly merged sound-aesthetic that culminates in an blissful hour that urges one to dance. Like a heavy swell Ramu understands when to musically ease up and then again takes up pace to create points of friction in his art:cast. And if one does not miss the dancefloor after dedicating yourself to Ramu's music you've never loved the floor enough.

Goeran Meyer - Their Temple Is the Tent
Release date: 1 october 2021

Label: MYR
https://soundcloud.com/goeranmeyer

Goeran Meyer returns to his MYR label with a pair of superbly stylish and considered new tracks.

Hot on the heels of his ‘Push and Hold’ EP back in July, Meyer is back with more of his deep and cinematic soundscapes. Whether DJing, producing or playing live, his approach to music is to always transport you through an ever-changing landscape of audio sculptures. The German has put out more than 30 releases on labels like Tulipa Recordings, Wonnemusik and Fine Beatz and continues to explore fresh new sounds on this latest effort. 

The gorgeous 'Place Your Tents' floats on supple synths and rubbery bass. The track unfolds like a flower, with expansive chords and gentle progressions taking you ever higher into the stars. It's an emotive and evocative tune that gets you in a reflective, optimistic mood as the grooves carry you away. The majestic 'Facing The Temple' is a beautiful mix of starry melodies and warm, pulsing drums. It locks you in a state of hypnosis, with deft details seeing your mind occupied as the deep house drums roll on to infinity.

These are two heartfelt and hugely atmospheric pieces of electronic music from the excellent Goeran Meyer.
