LM001: Liquid Memories EP (snippets)

A Story of Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Slow Motion, New Wave, Breakbeat ...is now starting.

INCOMING : Elfenberg - Sphere Of Missing Out #BordelloAParigi

Release date : 2023-01-09

Buy : https://bordelloaparigi.com/shop/vinyl/elfenberg-forever-alone-ep

One of Stockholm’s finest exports, Elfenberg arrive at Bordello with four slices of synthesizer goodness. The duo open with “Forever Alone”. A cruising arpeggiator steers its way through glistening snares, rolling kicks and classic italo vocals. Night falls in the jungle “Conga Coronation”. The treetops bristle with birdsong, thickets of bongos, toms and rain sticks lead a path to dawning melodies. A wonderfully textured percussive piece, the track is intricately carved and demonstrates the diversity and depth of Elfenberg. The disco dipped futurism of “Sphere Of Missing Out” follows. Echoes of “Conga Coronation” rhythms are countered by beaming synth bars and vocoder lyrics with the Swedish pair pushing for the floor. “Cosmic Tribune” is the curtain close. Astral chords, spiralling key shifts and incising drums coalesce in this space inspired finale. A truly stunning debut from this talented partnership.

INCOMING : Elfenberg - Sphere Of Missing Out #BordelloAParigi

His previous release on Mélopée with the single « Arena » was the occasion to announce Brandski’s debut album. It was also a preview of the musical themes he will develop.

The owl is really proud by the trust established with the artist.
We hope to give Brandski the visibility he deserves !

The challenges Brandski sets, was to merge his broad influences from Disco, EBM and Electro in a united work. He perfectly matches theses vintage fields to more contemporary and future territories. Like an orchestra conductor, he develops melodics rises, supported by chords on top on cutted bass line.

The whole package is made to drive the listener on his journey, from calm and mental songs to brute and dancefloor patterns. To use the words of the artist : “the purpose of the album is to carry the listener, from a point to another, from introspection to self-surrender.”

We are also happy to have Austher on board, another incredible french artist ! He joins Brandski on the track « Disco Dance » and give it a melodic touch !

Austher will come back soon with some good tunes.

Premiere: A1 - Ori Raz - Arnold [LM001]

Was he awake or asleep? It was hard to tell. Though objects seemed tangible, he felt as if he were floating above, detached from his body - simply a passenger in his own life. These instances had become more and more frequent, his inability to distinguish reality now consumed his every thought, maybe the two were never discernible in the first place... He'd been backed into a never-ending state of confusion - the question remained: had he lost his mind or his body?

Elroi and Ori Raz are the team behind a brand spanking new label on the scene, Liquid Memory Records. Operating out of Berlin, the vinyl-only imprint springs into life with a Various Artists release featuring music from the co-owners, both solo and together under the guise of Serenity Now. Each side harnesses a different energy: the A-side is a slab of pumping progressive house and acid-soaked breakbeats, while on the flip their joint efforts produce two blissed-out, twinkling dream house cuts to drift away to. Perfectly primed for late nights and early mornings, the record sets a precedent for what we can expect from the label and its co-founders in the future.

Liquid Memories II

PREMIERE: Ori Raz - Hydro Ritual [LM002]

exclusive | Elroi - Transmission | Liquid Memory

Vinyl-only label Liquid Memory and its founders Elroi and Ori Raz are back with the second Liquid Memories installment on their imprint delivering four original tracks from themselves under their solo-monikers as well as their common project Serenity Now and Ori’s collaborative work with WhereIsFenix. The Berliners by choice compiled an EP that musically certainly aims at the dance floor yet the tracks cover the different episodes or moments of the night and are a successful conglomerate of varied electronic music with references to the early days of the music. The EP kickstarts with Elroi’s contribution Transmission, a track which is inspired by Dub Techno and skillfully nuanced hypnotic pads. The latter take the crowd on a deep journey into the night without notice as Transmission makes one float over the floor with its super bouncy bassline and absorbing chords.

Elroi's track Transmission is part of Liquid Memory's Liquid Memories II EP.

This four-track release as KANN57 showcases a diverse range, balancing polished production with a few sprinkles of nostalgic influences from his youth time. The track above set a smooth yet driving tone, associate with a certain clean Kompakt like aesthetic but also UK house approach understating to tech-house that easily invites listeners to sink into the groove.

Quiet Force - For Love And Emotions (Apiento & Tepper Mix)

5 Years of Love On The Rocks
4 x 12" compilation, 15 November 2019

Paramida made her name as an integral part of the new Berlin school of DJs embracing a more expansive sound, a charismatic and eclectic idealism beyond the steady, straight-forward pulse of house and techno. Following five years at the city’s diverse OYE Records store, and alongside an international schedule of DJing, she has spent the previous five crafting her Love On The Rocks label in that same generous spirit.

Now, with half a decade passed, she has called upon many of the label’s previous associates, alongside some new faces, to curate a four-disc compilation produced upon the adventurous and personal principles upon which the label was founded. The title of the collection is ‘Supergau’, which Paramida explains to mean "A disaster beyond all expectations". It’s a typically pithy title for a label that’s found a unique groove between dancefloor fulfillment and surprising turns, keeping it’s dedicated buyers and open-minded DJs on their toes, just as Paramida likes it. Still, it hasn’t always been easy.

“Those 5 years didn't fly by,'' admits Paramida. “I had moments of doubts and thoughts about stopping the label. But something inside didn't let it happen. So whatever I'm doing with the label is something that is so deeply rooted in me that I'm not ready to stop yet. This compilation represents five years of ups and downs, tears and joy, growing, losing and finding itself again. I've never really questioned or reflected it much. The label has been pretty much a mirror of my personal life, my taste at a certain point and the artist or person that was involved in my life at that particular stage of my life. As such, I want to give this first chapter of Love On The Rocks a nice closure.”

Some artists on the compilation return to the fold, such including Fantastic Man, Massimiliano Pagliara, Violet, ELLES, Etbonz, Dirk Leyers and Alex Kassian. Others are featured for the first time such as Francis Inferno Orchestra, Bartellow and Eric Duncan. And others again are a complete surprise, including Kornél Kovács, Daniela La Luz and Hermann Kristoffersen. ‘5 Years of Love On The Rocks’ presents an opportunity for artists to explore the charismatic boundaries between house, disco, new wave and acid, with the shared goal of sheer dancefloor bliss.

“Every record I put out felt like a message I'm sending out into the universe”, explains Paramida. “And everyone featured on this compilation is someone I deeply connect with, even though it's a pretty unexpected mix of artists. Here’s to the next five years.”
