I can always tell I'll love an italo tune within the first few seconds!

RELEASE

The Psycho Weazel duo met when compiling playlists at summer camp as teenagers. They decided to work together and have never looked back since. The Swiss pair have released on the likes of Correspondant, Sol Eterno and various other labels and now land on Argent Sale. They use production techniques popular in the 80s such as glossy arpeggios, cowbells and snare rolls while re-claiming earworm melodies from the era all served up with a fresh and polished sound. These new tracks are a bit like both sides of the same coin and include influences that shaped the duo’s sound, namely indie dance, Italo, disco, cold wave and EBM.

Opener 'Disco Moon' immediately sets off on a strident retro disco groove with plenty of shiny arps and crunchy drum tumbles. The fantastic 'Polarized' is a more slow and steamy cut with breathy female vocals and a rugged bassline overlaid with off-grid percussion. 'Elettra' is then an exquisite eight-minute adventure to the stars on tinny drums and crashing perc while a rigid lead synth brings the colour as it sprays about the mix. Sandford features on 'Gomina' which is another dramatic and loose-limbed disco cut, this time with lashings of Italo melody and theatric drum work. The radio edit of this will be release on 6th may, while the extended mix features on the full EP and gives even more of a thrilling dance floor workout doused in disco dazzle.

'Chrome' opens with big throwback drum fills and the wiggling bass and catchy grooves sweep you off your feet while the withering sci-fi keys and cowbells all add detail to this lush groove. The magnificent 'Lola' closes down with a fat bassline and widescreen disco sound that is packed with a charming personality.

These six tracks sound like the future of hedonist club music, 2022 style.

Bianco & Rosso EP Part 2

PREMIERE : Psycho Weazel - Chrome

Swiss duo Psycho Weazel step in with some dance floor dynamite.

Léo Besso and Ivo Roxo's story is one of kinship; a tale of two friends spurring each other through an ever-ascending journey propelled by soft hearts and a magnetic, boisterous energy.

With hours stacking in the studio, Psycho Weazel defined their sound with the beautifully balanced 'boysdontcry'. This LP sought to give license to emotional expression whilst showcasing an important facet of their characters that extends beyond party starters and is more introspective and complex.

This balance is echoed across their latest outing for Exploited Club. 'Sueño Cálido' is equal parts heartfelt and mobile; club bangers with a cosy tinge perfect for warm summer dance floors.

The title track kicks things off with a deft counterbalance of power and poignancy. Nifty polyrhythms dance a syncopated shuffle under buttery synths that swell into humid plumes, while a boxing bass line tacks together a highly infectious groove. More melodies are gently folded in as emotion mounts, and a clever, free-flowing arrangement keeps the listener engaged, while a certain lo-fi quality wraps them in a homey blanket.

'Sueur' follows up with a slapping 909 drum track adorned with a bubbling organ and broad, colorful synth sweeps. Again, lively sequencing keeps the listener on their toes as drums are expertly dropped in and out, while melodies duck and weave across a bold, no-nonsense DJ tool.

'Body Alarm' brings things to a steamy close. Toms lead the charge here as they form the bones of a totally irresistible vibe, enhanced with carnival vocal cuts and sharp organ jabs. A wild breakdown unfolds as the energy stacks in layers, keeping the mood at boiling point until the very end.

'Once In A Lifetime' is one of Talking Heads' most adored tracks and the 10-minute edit is a true homage to the timeless cut. Added percussion, elongated vocal segments and more hands-in-the-air moments than ever before, this is a remix that plays on its subtly. 

We've managed to secure a full stream of the extended vocal mix despite the fact it's a vinyl-only cut so you're in for a treat.

It's not trying to make the original better, it's merely showcasing what an incredible piece of source material it is, while making it workable for the club. Bravo we say, keep them coming.

Pollyester - Voices  ( Pional Remix )

OUT NOW: http://lnk.to/PH44RMX

Originally written and produced as the centrepiece to his 2014 FabricLive compilation, Erol Alkan’s ‘Sub Conscious' arrives on 12” vinyl and to streaming platforms for the first time, accompanied by two charismatic remixes from Manfredas.

Shimmering and undulating, the original cut of ‘Sub Conscious’ was designed with Fabric’s cavernous main room in mind, taking full advantage of any finely-tuned soundsystem with a patient, rhythmic trip. Remastered here, the track evolves out of hazy darkness towards halcyon euphoria in a uniquely Alkan style.

Resident at Opium Club in Vilnius, cult DJ and producer Manfredas provides two hugely creative and alternative takes on ‘Sub Conscious’. The first works hallucinatory magic with a supple bassline and much of Alkan’s original stretched and repurposed around vampish oscillations and a westward vocal sample.

On the contrary, the ‘Stream Of Consciousness' mix sees Manfredas pitch down and strum the bones of ‘Sub Conscious’, unexpectedly delivering a lovingly lethargic, bottom-heavy jam that’s pure dubside pleasure.

The story of Psycho Weazel is that of a musical thunderbolt between two
sensitive guys. Two teenagers who discover themselves by comparing their playlists in summer camp and who decide to share their dreams. Since then they have come a long way. By dint of obstinacy and work, they manage to radiate from their studio nestled on the shore of Lake Neuchâtel with productions released on labels worldwide and by sharing, live or as DJ set, an elegant and
exhilarating music at the best venues in the region and elsewhere.

From their studio with a view, they never stop dreaming.

FR:
L’histoire des Psycho Weazel, c’est celle d’un coup de foudre musical entre deux garçons sensibles.
Deux ados qui se découvrent en comparant leurs playlists en colonie de vacances et qui décident de mettre leurs rêves en commun. Depuis le chemin parcouru est édifiant. A force d’opiniâtreté et de travail, ils parviennent à rayonner depuis leur studio niché au bord du lac de Neuchâtel avec des productions parues sur des labels des 4 coins de la planète et en partageant, en live ou dj set, une musique racée et enivrante dans les meilleures salles de la région et d’ailleurs.
