Balearic Sub 100

Artist: Various Artists 
Title: [QR]V.052.GMF.25 
Label: COD3 QR 
Cat No: QRV052GMF25 
Format: Vinyl 
Released: 21 February 2025 

Track Listing: 
A1. Laurent Garnier – Back Where I Belong (Solaris Mix) 
A2. Tal Fussman – Waiting 
B1. Loloman - The Wall (Laurent Garnier ReWork) 
B2. The Lost Souldancer - No More Voices 

COD3 QR cries "Give Me Four!" for their first vinyl-only release of 2025. 

Label helmsman, Laurent Garnier delivers the first cut, setting the standard for "[QR]V.052.GMF.25".  "Back Where I Belong (Solaris Mix)" is a monumental builder.  Laurent once again brings his musical storytelling with layers upon layers of sound and melody alongside infectious beats. 

Berlin resident and Survival Tactics label head, Tal Fussman is known for creating music that works in many settings and transcends genres.  Fast becoming a COD3 QR regular having previously provided the deep "10247" for COD3 QR 016 and epic "If I Can" for "[QR]D.158.DWM.24".  This time he returns with the upbeat "Waiting" and a heavy nod to retro soulful House.   

Leading French producer Loloman creates music inspired by his extensive experience on the dancefloor alongside the roots of Detroit techno and Chicago house.  On November's "[QR]D.320.MFS.24" he gave us "The Wall" which has now been masterfully reworked by Garnier. 

Benny Rodrigues a.k.a. ROD unveils his new moniker, The Lost Souldancer.  In his own words, Benny says: "The Lost Souldancer is about coping with the loss of what once was.  Finding comfort in the invisible rather than what can be seen.  Disconnect to connect in order to be loved rather than liked."  "No More Voices" brings that feeling alive as a perfect closer to this soul-stirring EP.

[QR]V.052.GMF.25

A1- Laurent Garnier - Back where I belong (Solaris Mix) - preview

Hot on the heels of the much loved 6th Leonidas & Hobbes “Together” EP (May ‘25), Leonidas returns this Halloween, with his long awaited second solo EP, “Flying Saucers”, since debuting in 2012 with Sequential EP (via Kay Suzuki’s Round In Motion label). 

https://hobbesmusicon.bandcamp.com/album/flying-saucers-hm034ep-house-balearic-cosmic

As the name suggests, Flying Saucers is an exploration into cosmic dancing, delving into some of Leonidas’ favourite extra-terrestrial, interstellar and sci-fi themes, without ever losing his focus on the dancefloor. 

The opening/title track is a 10 minute epic deep house journey, inspired by the below Jacques Vallée quote* made famous by Terence McKenna (at a 1987 UFO conference). This is perfectly complemented by Oumuamua, another cosmic collaboration with good friend and collaborator Kay Suzuki, which can perhaps best be described as ‘Drexciya stuck in a lift with Manuel Gottsching’ (RIP) - the latter having given the pair praise for their seminal track, Interstellar Vibrations, in 2012.

Side B kicks off with the minimal/acid house/slow ‘footwerk’ track, Spectral Portal, a funky 303/606/Juno 60 workout, followed by Nommo, an afrobeat influenced Balearic house number, inspired by tales of alien ancestral spirits from the mythology of the Dogon people of Mali, West Africa. The EP rounds off with Submarine 606 (the title is a play on 60s Japanese manga series Submarine 707), an electronic future-jazz number that defies categorisation.

*
"In looking at the effect, not asking the question 'what is it?' but 'what does it do?', you very quickly see what the Flying Saucers are doing. What they are doing is eroding faith in science. They are an antidote to the scientific paradigm that has evolved over the past 400 years and which has led us to the brink of global catastrophe." Jacques Vallée

 A vinyl junkie from a very early age, he started buying disco 7s in the late 70s but really caught the bug in the early 90s whilst at Uni in Liverpool where he played at Cream & various nights at the Student Union & across the city. After moving to Brighton in 1995 he became a regular on the free party scene and has played in various bars & clubs like audio, the loft, the ocean rooms. His mixes on Soundcloud have seen him develop a steady international following which have led to gigs in far flung places like St Petersburg, Zurich, Melbourne, Madrid & the Rocket festival in Spain.
