das ist so krank nice, der wird jetzt das restliche Jahr gespielt

Working the fields of Italo disco, rave, and house, TURNLAND co-chief FELICE delivers the goods with a smashing tune entitled "INFINITE SUBURBIA" which indeed can easily be tagged with the "Italo" moniker - a very modern and up to date, state of the art italo take that is. The tune is a stomping tour de force (or more likely a Giro d'Italia …) with razor-sharp piano stabs and DJ CITY sweetening the former instrumental track by adding marvelous icy cold yet laid-back vocals - a collaboration which came into being during the 2020 Covid summer. Of course, we put the instrumental on the EP as well - for those of you who want to sing yourself …

Benjamin Fröhlich's four-track EP "Club Fantasy" was our first release this year - now it gets the full "remixed-by-four" treatment it deserves.

First one up is the currently New York based German DJ and musician Annegret Fiedler aka Perel with her take on "Escape". She adds a bit of a "bite" to the warm, emotional, and cinematic Italo soundscape of Benjamin's original version thus creating an even more hypnotic tune with a cutting edge.

Berlin based DJ and producer Alex Kassian puts his hands on the title track "Club Fantasy" by slightly increasing the tempo and adding some great percussion elements, yet reducing the typical 303 elements a tiny little bit - a total winner on every dancefloor. 

DJ City's remix of the same track is also faster than the original and much more on a stomping ground - he takes no prisoners - it's a straight into-your-face affair with a mighty mighty bass drum.

Last but not least Peter Invasion and Gregor Habicht sprinkle their magic dust on "Escape". Their version is even more dreamy than Benjamin's original version. It's sheer beauty and deserves to be played in the early morning hours of every club night - as long as we all get the chance to re-experience those sacred moments again of course … 

Finally we've got all the radio DJs and stations and streaming platforms covered with Perel's "Spotify" edit - say no more - 100% efficacy.

Now it's your turn to discover "The Remixed Sound Of Munich" - have fun exploring it!

Following on from their recent Love Forgotten, Oddities & Rarities Collections, A Man Called Adam return this summer with the latest in their 'Special Edition' series of releases. This time they've curated and remastered a selection of mixes of their Balearic classic All My Favourite People, including previously vinyl-only cuts and remixes from Albert Cabrera (aka One Latin Rascal) and Tom Middleton, plus their own 12" dubs and radio edits.

Written on a family holiday in County Kerry, Southern Ireland, Sally's lyric evokes that haunted, magical landscape as she asks ALL her favourite people - the living and the dead - to 'Stay With Me'. The music, co-written with Jazz legend Eddie Parker, was produced by Rodgers and Jones in their East London studio and reflects their immersion in the late 90s UK Garage scene with its heavy swing, hypnotic harps and electric pianos, hoofing dub bass line and sticky 2-Step beats.

Paradiso head honcho REES is at the helm for the 6th instalment of SYNRG Sounds. Middlesbrough's golden boy delivers an hour of trademark Italo cuts with a few hints of new beat and acid for good measure.

Taken from "Tarjei Nygård & Stockhaus feat. The Egyptian Lover - Drive EP"(Eskimo Recordings)". Out September 17th 2021.

‘Drive’ the new single from Norwegian producers Tarjei Nygård & Stockhaus, featuring the unmistakable vocals of 80s electro legend The Egyptian Lover, is nothing less than an unabashed 808 driven, low end anthem. From its abrupt bass stabs and robotic percussion to its even more robotic vocoders ‘Drive’ is the kind of track that will
have you digging out your old lino and poppin’ & lockin’ with the best of them. Starting life as an instrumental, recorded when Stockhaus and Nygård spent a stormy night in the studio laying down new tracks, the pair knew they had something good on their hands but still felt like the track was just missing a certain something. Or rather a certain someone, as years before the pair had hung out with The Egyptian Lover at Nygård’s NuMusic Festival and really who could be better for the job?
As luck would have it Nygård was set to be in LA for work a few years later and what’s more the man behind the classic ‘Egypt, Egypt’ was not only in town but loved the track. All that was left to do was quickly book the legendary Skip Saylor Studios (where the likes of Ice-T and Guns N’ Roses had recorded in the past) and get that jam in the bag.
‘Drive’ also marks a welcome return to Eskimo Recordings for Tarjei Nygård who, as well as releasing singles on labels such as Prins Thomas’ Full Pupp and Lovefingers’ ESP
Institute, previously featured on Eskimo’s ‘The Orange Collection’ compilation with the timeless track ‘Flog’. For Stockhaus meanwhile ‘Drive’ marks his debut on the label and is, remarkably, his 1st single of the year, a nice change of pace after he set himself, and
completed, the task of releasing 100 songs in 2019.

Beau Zwart - Evolove  EP
Label: 𝕀ℕ𝕀 𝕄𝕆𝕍𝔼𝕄𝔼ℕ𝕋 (https://soundcloud.com/inimovement)
BUY LINK: https://beauzwart.bandcamp.com/album/evolove
Release date: 01 october 2021
https://soundcloud.com/beauzwart


Evolove is an amalgamation of the words 'evolve' and 'love.' The evolving musical structures in house, afrobeat, and jazz inspired Rotterdam talent Beau Zwart in the process of sculpting this EP. The idea of combining these different genres started out after a night of dancing on the couch with his girlfriend. After hours of dancing and flipping through different moods and genres, the concept of this EP was born. Born out of love (for dancing).   
Long-time label homie K15 delivers a deep take on For MXM in true London Brokenbeat fashion. Mysterious newcomer Lu-Lu brings an uplifting, summer-ready interpretation of the title track Evolove to complete Beau Zwart's second release on INI Movement.

PREMIERE : Beau Zwart - D Choir

Lucas Lejeune & Carsten Fluck are Le Jeune Flück, a young and promising producer duo based in Frankfurt, Germany. Having previously appeared on respected Indie Dance/Nu Disco labels such as Moonbootique, U're Guay, Clipp.Art, and Sinchi, the lads make their debut on Paradiso Records with “Remeasure”, an interesting 7-track EP, broadly inspired by the exciting electronic music legacy FFM and its surroundings bear and devoted to helping the duo to carve their own.

The multitude of sounds featured on the release got some boost provided by Elliott Lion and Rees, the label boss himself, who jumped in with their respective influences and delivered two insightful and beautiful remixes.

The track we chose to review/premiere brings Rees having probably not his first rodeo with the peculiar sonority that emanates from the bedrooms, garages, basements, and studios in Hessen and takes over the dance floors not only throughout the region but also across other neighbourhoods. If you have ever been to Robert Johnson (based in Offenbach, and not in Frankfurt as many magazines and blogs insist on publishing wrong), you know what we are talking about. Big Rees competently manages to hand over a remix that would perfectly blend amid the kind of thing that we, Frankfurters & Offenbachers, like around here.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://paradisorecords.bandcamp.com/

Those tasty Glasgow types Manakinz (Sub Club legend Harri and Max Raskin) are back with their third EP for Monologues, filled with another three beguiling, heavyweight, innovative belters.'Electric Bob' kicks off with the dreamiest of chords and heady vocal delays floating over a chugging groove, before 'Lovely Lugz' takes things in a moodier direction with Hamish Hay's infectious afrobeat-flavoured guitar licks, tribal percussive rhythms and a stomping bass groove. 'Nifty McPherson' rounds the EP off in tripped-out style, with hypnotic FX and bugged-out synths bringing a psychedelic edge to this varied EP.
