Its Just A Good Beat

Since first joining forces in the studio at the dawn of the 2000s, Daniele Baldelli and Marco Dionigi have released countless collaborative singles and albums, each showcasing distinctively different takes on the “cosmic sound” that Baldelli did more than anyone else to define in the early 1980s.

Aloteva marks the pair’s first joint release for Leng Records, and Baldelli’s return to the label following last year’s acclaimed full-length collaboration with Marco Fratty, Oil Painting. It boasts a quartet of cuts that further refine the pair’s now-familiar joint style, which combines elements of dub disco, space rock, Italo-disco, funk and Afro-cosmic (another style which Baldelli arguably created via his DJ sets at the legendary Cosmic Club).

Those who’ve followed the experienced Italian pair’s career over the last two decades will enjoy the heavy and sweaty title track, a cowbell-sporting chunk of funk-fuelled cosmic disco decadence piled high with loose-limbed drums, throbbing synthesizer arpeggio lines, flanged guitar riffs and rubbery, low-slung bass.

The pair’s love of dub disco is further explored on the deliciously deep and warming ‘Deflector’, a pitched-down delight in which intergalactic chords, snaking saxophone motifs and echoing percussion hits rise above a metronomic beat and another headline-grabbing bassline. 

‘Sonora’, which opens the flipside of the vinyl version of the release, is arguably even more cosmic and spaced-out. Light and airy thanks to a sparse, clicking drum machine rhythm, hypnotic bassline and gently pulsing synth chords, the track is marked out by some near horizontal, echo-laden jazz guitar solos that seemingly tumble down across the sound space.

To round off a strong EP, Baldelli and Dionigi deliver ‘Time Is Plastic’, whose icy ambient intro and blazed spoken word samples quickly segue into another elastic cosmic funk groove. This time round, the star attraction is the duo’s classy combination of liquid bass guitar and excitement-packed slap-bass. Throw in some gnarled, flash-fried funk guitar riffs and a heady, hypnotic mood, and you have another deep space gem from the most cosmic duo in the business.

Daniele Baldelli & Marco Dionigi - Sonora

This year the Tour De France Grand Départ is in Copenhagen. The route is very close to Music For Dreams HQ, therefore we decided to put out a little EP to celebrate this event.

We asked a few MFD artists to do cover versions of electronic pioneers Kraftwerk from their incredible Tour De France Soundtracks album which was released in 2003.
Charlotte & Reinhard (from Rheinzand) have done a version of Vitamin.
Danish Duo Subnesia have done a modern funky take on the 1983 classic title track with Truck D on vocals.

The Swan & The Lake featuring Rosebud chose Aéro Dynamik for their version.
We think its a nice homage to the original and also a fantastic cover artwork by MSB Creations to finish off the release.
Bon Tour!

Arnau Obiols and KAYYAK met just last year through their girlfriends who happen to be sisters. As one can imagine it did not take long until the two brothers-in-law sat in the studio together for the first time accompanied by Swiss bass player Jules Martinet and with vocals by South African Singer B’utiza as well as Mozambican vocalist Tcheco who is part of the legendary band Ghorwane (Real World Records). The energy during the production of these songs came to life and resulted in the two originals on this record. Folkloric tradition with modern programming, acoustic drums, percussion with acid, echo feedback and psychedelic sounds all infused by funky basslines.

In addition they invited Kalabrese and MLiR to do a remix. Both of them being artists close at heart for Arnau and Kay.
