In pandemic times of telepresences and social distancing, Live At Robert Johnson and Leipzig’s own Riotvan team up for a magical musical mission. Encompassed by the graphic design of Michael Satter & Panthera Krause, each of the five tracks has been created by teams representing both label crews and their environs, rendering a truly synergetic effort.

A1 is Roman Flügel & Rebolledo producing deep and wide Star Stuff with arpeggiated bass riffs, haunting vocals, and melody. A2 sees Jennifer Touch & Chinaski setting off on an electroid Synth-Pop trip, with crafty 1980s synths, drums, and vocals. A3 is New Hook and Perel teaming up for a Cosmic Disco tinged track, featuring unique spanish-english vocals.

The flipside kicks off with Fort Romeau & Panthera Krause on B1, heavily into a stereophonic and proper Italo soundscape. Horkheimer & Peter Invasion & Gregor Habicht conclude the EP on B2 with a wicked technoid Breakbeat along a modulating bassline and, yeah, a looney laugh befitting these crazy times.

It is with much delight that we can announce the return of the Krause. Here with the second installment of the ongoing Riotvan Edition, https://soundcloud.com/panthera-krause, as in one of the label’s most beloved mainstays, hands in his first two original productions after his 2019 full length offering „It’s a Business Doing Pleasure with You“. This two-tracker showcases everything we love about Krause, the tongue-in-cheek attitude, the anything goes approach in conjunction with anyone dances arrangements. Yet, on „Como Dada“ and „All I Want To Do“ we find him focus particularly on groove and rhythmic patterns. No doubt, two bold tunes ready to heat some floors. Leaves us thinking, what actually does he wanna do? Maybe have some fun? Well, we’ve got a feeling, he’s not the only one...

Panthera Krause - All I Want To Do [Snippet]

When it comes to high-quality Brazilian Deep House, Curitiba-based Henrique Oliveira aka HNQO is definitely amid the most influential producers of his generation. With solid originals and remixes released on local and international vital imprints of the genre such as Warung, Get Physical Music, Defected, Hot Creations, Off Spin, NastyFunk, Clepsydra, and his very own Playperview, HNQO is now back to the still small but rising German label Hazy Days with the single “Until I’m Done”. 

Something extremely interesting about HD, by the way, is that the platform just releases singles: one artist, one track. A forgotten format nowadays, but still greatly valuable inasmuch as the team can focus exclusively on the promotion of a sole tune. Smart, in our humble opinion.

Right now, 100% of their attention is on HNQO’s “Until I’m Done”, a cosmic-infused cut with a groovy breakbeat, a fat bassline, lush pads, a nervous synth layer, and a notable acid lead. Elements that, together, result in a melodic and upbeat theme devoted to creating a laidback, yet energizing atmosphere. A must-have for the Deep House lovers out there – in our humble opinion.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label: https://www.beatport.com/label/hazy-days/63702

PREMIERE307 // HNQO - Until I'm Done

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/andershajem
Track: Tape

Anders Hajem takes inspiration from classic house on his superb new release for Mellom.
Anders Hajem is a producer from Ål in Hallingdal, Norway with a background playing in local bands. He studied production in Oslo and was immersed in the city's nightlife while releasing as Clastique and DJ Username for his own BCR label. Now under his own name, he produced these tracks in his own studio and they find him widening his sound after his debut on Prins Thomas's Full Pupp last year. While he shows a different side, he retains his trademark sense of energy and masterfully deploys an MPC2000XL to get an authentic old-school vibe.
The opener 'Send It' has a big heart and big energy. The piano chords are party starting, the bass is fat and the groove will lift dancers off their feet. Synth lines bring plenty of colour, subtle acid textures and futuristic soul and help make this one such a characterful track.
Then comes 'Tape,' a warm and deep cut with soft, diffuse synths and a hazy atmosphere. The dusty drums and romantic chords make for a chilled vibe but with a heavy groove that also makes you dance.
It's house music for good times with close friends.
These tracks prove that whatever style Anders Hajem serves up, he always gets it just right for the dance floor.

PREMIERE | Anders Hajem - Tape [Mellom] 2022

Please welcome Barış Karademir, Istanbul's edit master, DJ, and musician with Insanlar on Live At Robert Johnson!

If you're a person that likes to get up late, Barış's first track »Noon« is the one for you. It sort of sets the mood for the whole EP with a groove that is deep and hypnotic and above all psychedelic. There's tremolo en masse plus these in and out fading voices that suck you into Mr. K's world - all kept together by this steady forward marching Barış beat. Pleasure, joy, and happiness - all in on groove - and not only effective at noon.

»La Dame Noir«'s most prominent feature is a mean bass line - plus more of those otherworldly sounds that Barış manages to pull out of his magician's hat while creating a superb shuffling riddim for all you dancers to shuffle along to, throwing in that oh so subtle triangle now and then.

With the last track »Valhalla«, Barış enters the mythological place of Asgard, where Valhalla, Odin's hall of the slain can be found in his Glaðsheimr castle. That kinda sounds a bit archaic and dark but don't be afraid: where there is shadow there is also light - light which can be heard in the first opening lines, lines that do sound a bit like played by our favorite shoegazer band "My Bloody Valentine". To get to Valhalla, Barış accelerates the tempo by a couple of beats, yet throws in all trademark ingredients to cook up a tune for peak time dancing in Valhalla … erm … I mean in the club.

So yes, please let us invite you to Barış K's wonderful world of sound - you won't regret it.

Buy/stream: https://kompakt.fm/releases/treets

The long-running Kompakt imprint will release an EP by German DJ and producer Sascha Funke in September. Sharing five tracks that traverse quirky house and techno, Treets marks Funke’s monumental return to Kompakt since his Zug um Zug two-tracker in 2014.

Speaking about Treets, Funke says he is "very happy to be back on the mothership Kompakt" after an eight-year break. As one would expect with Funke, the EP fits the cosmic world of Kompakt to a tee. The title track conveys a weird, tripped-out atmosphere as an alien-like vocal burbles between an acid bassline and squeaky percussion. It's a tantalising glimpse of Funke's freaky underworld. E_Plus follows a similar wonked-out vein, only this time, the vibe is ominous. Funke pairs an orchestral vocal with bleepy pads and signature acid-drenched melody — a solid offering oddball of energy. On Alles Paletti, a 2-step drum pattern and string of bright claps create a sunny soundscape, complemented by a robust bassline and ethereal synth notes. It's fairytale house music, the kind only Funke can produce. The penultimate track Haus More is subdued, as chugging drums slither between a wobbly melody. The Other Version feels futuristic, as Funke goes full-force electro. Extra-terrestrial vocals return, but the pace is cranked up by strident sound FX and thudding drums. An eccentric end to an eccentric EP.

Sascha Funke is a Berlin-based producer and DJ with two decades' worth of releases building his back catalogue. BPitch Control, Turbo Recordings, Endless Flight, Running Back, and several more esteemed imprints have released his work. Today, he continues to create sleek sounds that weave various genres from house, techno, disco, Krautrock, wave, electro and unclassified anomalies. As a DJ, Funke is just as free-wheeling as his productions. He's played E1 in London, Caos in São Paulo and Renate in Berlin, amongst others, displaying his sweeping sound to a worldwide audience. Having been exposed to euro-dance pop as a youngster, you can hear flashes from the genre stitched throughout his work but blended in a way that's quintessential to Funke. Never one to change his sound according to the latest trend, Funke stays true to his creative vision — one of the most significant challenges for producers today.

The next expression by Hunt & Gather label founder and House music raconteur Pezzner. In his latest tale Pezzner, ever the eclecticist and vanguard, transcribes grandiose orchestral expression, Broadway vocal jazz, exalted post-disco, and Balearic tones into a format that we can all gather and dance to.

This is 'Sunrising' and it comes accompanied by two reinterpretations: a propellant electric disco romp by label partner Doza, and a sterling but jovial expression by Deep House legend (and our dear friend) Fred Everything. This release is capped off by Pezzner's playful and flowing reperformance of Herb Alpert's dancefloor classic 'Rise'.  The artwork was created by Robbie Busch, DC Comics writer and penciler.

Tracklist: 

1. 'Sunrising'
2. 'Sunrising' (Doza Remix)
3. 'Sunrising' (Fred Everything 'Après Minuit' Remix)
4. 'Rise'

PREMIERE: Pezzner - Sunrising [Hunt & Gather]

Exclusive: Charles Webster - I Wonder Why (Charles Webster's 'Still Wondering' Mix)

Two years after the release of Charles Webster's album Decision Time, which was praised equally by critics and musicians, the British artist delivers three new mixes for one of the album's stand-out tracks I Wonder Why. Besides Atjazz taking on remix duties, and a musical approach from Nowism, Charles himself reworked the track to give it an even darker note accentuating the track's message by going without a continuous bass line and emphasizing on sounds, which perfectly go with the spoken vocals. Webster proves once again that you can create House music without its ordinary features and basically approves what the press already said: "There's almost no House music here, though it still runs as a hidden pulse through the record." 

Charles Webster's I Wonder Why Mixes are out on Miso Records.
