There were some landscapes that simply took your breath away; the kind that made you feel like a tiny speck on this thing we call planet earth. The canyon below was a sight to behold, its huge stone surfaces coated in tones of copper and green. If you squinted hard enough you could trace clusters of tiny humans exploring the winding paths, tunnels and bridges that littered the expanse. It felt somewhat magical or metaphysical; a natural wonder of the world...

It's been almost a decade since Italian producers Rodion and Fabrizio Mammarella teamed up for a collaborative EP on the latter's Slow Motion imprint. Like their first outing, Apennini, back in 2012 this new release proves yet again why these two are a perfect production pairing, fusing their shared love of synthesized melodies and machine-driven funk and disco. The duo continue this across their Sierra Madre EP, which was recorded in Mexico City with a guest appearance from Roam Records and Duro alumni Mijo, and backed by a rework from Italo-Belgian duo Front De Cadeaux.

Sierra Madre

PREMIERE: Rodion & Mammarella - Barranca Del Cobre [Slow Motion]

The duo consisting of Fargo Devianti (@fargodevianti) & Vongold (@nvongold) from Guadalajara (Mexico) deliver their EP ‘Storm In A Tea Cup’, a tribute to acid humor & their fashion, cinema and rock idols/icons.

The release opens with ’Rebecca’, a track unsettling in all aspects, strings out of tune, naughty arpeggios delicately bouncing over psychedelic notes and the highlighted Koto dragging us to perceive the world music fibers. The hilarious and unveiling lyrics with monthly horoscope vibes is born from the main character on Fargo Devianti & Vongold's favorite film ‘Ghost World’.

‘Heather’ on the other hand, is an organic composition that drags us to feel under the influence of a Neopunk Pit on the club. Vongold on her behalf, delivers us some lyrics and vocals as an allegory to clubbing nights, to the banal trend of social media, pop icons viral news and peculiar quotes of 90's movies disguised with electrifying guitars, intriguing melodies and a catchy bass line rescued from the insides of Fargo Devianti elements that will definitely kick up dust on the dance floors.

To close up the EP, there are two remixes included: one of them by 'Trio
Misterio' (project by Azaria, Alvaro Cabana and Lebollet) in which they make a more hypnotic and trippy interpretation of Rebecca's own, while SCADTA's rework (Colombian artist Sergio Iglesias y German producer Tilman Benecke) offers a New Beat / EBM flavored version of the track “Heathers’

Fargo Devianti & Vongold - Rebecca [Rotten City Files]

Duro returns with 'Derrumbes Y Escaleras', the first collaboration from Vontier & Mago's upcoming album. The single is inspired by the Indian board game 'Snakes and Ladders' and the hallucinogenic mushroom 'psilocybe caerulescens' popularly known as 'Derrumbe'. This mushroom is one of the most important species in the country and was formerly used in prehispanic religious ceremonies. The trip comes with remixes by Englishman Chez de Milo and US duo Zillas On Acid.

His opener here is 'Derrumbes Y Escaleras'. Instantly you feel the effect of deep bass, ancestral flutes and psychedelic melodies coursing through your system, while the inner voices guide you to the deepest part of your being. Chez de Milo follows with a solid, rumbling percussion base, intoxicated flutes and synths laden you to the next existential plane. 

The nine-minute Zillas On Acid's trip uses the bassline to keep you lucid and present, while the flutes, frenetic arpeggios and percussion create an inner chaos. Inspired by the Mexican rave scene of the 2000s, the 'Saiko Mix' has a catchy bouncy bass, rolling percussion and acid sounds that feel like melted lasers coming out of the speakers. 

Closing the EP is the B-Side 'Zumo Di Batuca', an experimental break cut. As it progresses the vocals and synthetic sounds disintegrate and melt into a solid, cyclical sound mix that keeps you in a trance state.

In it’s 5th release the label Fucanglong Files welcomes UK artist Radondo.

He delivers an ep that drives you into his dystopian world.

First with ‘Alone’ a slow but intense track, filled with dark synths that make you remember Blade Runner’s soundtrack. A dry and strong beat with a super heavy snare, driven by a catchy synth bass and an amazing choir lead.

‘Dusk’ goes into the italo realm. Bright synths and leads that tell a complete story throughout the track. Still inside Radondo’s dystopian world, you can feel a little light inside this one.

First remix comes by the hand of Mufti one the heads of Fucanglong Files. He takes ‘Alone’ into a more melacholic and club vibe while keeping a lot of the original.

Last but not least ‘Dusk’ gets the Curses treatment. His ‘Lucid Dawn’ mix is a fantastic cinematic journey that drives you through many different feelings during the track. From post punk guitars to huge new wave synths. Close your eyes and enjoy.

Expect to listen a lot of heavy snares, strong basslines, tons of synths…

The always interesting Mexican label NUFF MUSIC finally starts its 2022 season! For the 12th EP of the acclaimed imprint, Madrid-based artists Rams & Ivan De La Rouch (FREEDL022/032) teamed up again – the lads have already had previous collaborations released on Espacio Cielo and Golden Soul Records. This time, they bring to life “Diskobrute”, a mighty and cosmic Indie Dance-inclined single featuring fat remixes by Azaria (SXDNS076 as Dirt Track, a duo formed along with Javier Busto) and Disco Mortale, the new alter ego of Daniel Monaco (SXDNS137/FREEDL006). Premiered here, the latter’s contribution, by the way.

If Daniele Labbate tends to explore more his Italo Disco influences when he releases under his main and most prolific moniker, Daniel Monaco, as Disco Mortale he leans into the realms of EMB, Techno/Disco hybrid sounds and Acid vibes. For his interpretation of “Diskobrute”, DM kept the main elements of the original but blended them with more robust and darker ingredients, such as an obscene bassline, a boisterous synth layer, and ominous vocals, resulting in another top-notch piece from this essential artist.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label: https://www.beatport.com/label/nuff-music/72446

PREMIERE305 // Ivan De La Rouch & Rams - Diskobrute (Disco Mortale Remix)

The house had been barren for years, its moss covered front and cob-webbed windows an instant giveaway. That was until people came in to regenerate the town and suddenly life was breathed into the home once again. Its inside had been refurbished and its windows replaced, but beyond the beautiful facade and the freshly painted walls, there was a sense that something had happened here before; something terrible that would continue to inhabit the house regardless of its revived state.

Amsterdam's Sinchi Collective have spotlighted a ton of new producers from across the globe through their Altered States compilation series, all while raising money for the Sinchi Foundation, which supports Indigenous peoples worldwide. For the sixth volume they bring on board a roster of fresh artists who are bubbling under the surface in their respective cities. The likes of Terra de Ovnis, Sinchi Collective co-founder Ilmo, DeepMe and A-Tweed feature, amongst others, all bringing their own dark and psychedelic flavours that span icy electro, techno-disco and cosmic synth jams.

PREMIERE: Tierra de Ovnis - Spirit Machine [Sinchi]
