Le premier titre de Velours, Tendresse ou Violence, à tout d'un tube radio addictif. Il allie naturellement une production électronique aux consonances année 80 à un texte épique interprétée par la muse, Bambi Kalachnikov. Le remix d'Axel Le Baron ressemble à titre de la BO de drive avec sa couleur cinématographique, quant a celui d'Acid Washed c'est un slow disco tourné vers le dancefloor. 

Avec ce premier EP, Velours s'annonce comme un projet accessible par sa sonorité et sans faire de compromis sur l'écriture.

Velours - Tendresse Ou Violence (feat. Bambi Kalachnikov)

Following his debut album in 2021, Feiertag now explores a different and deeper sound with new LP, 'Dive.'
Joris Feiertag is a Dutch producer and drummer from the historic and culturally rich city of Utrecht. He signed to Sonar Kollektiv in 2018 and last year released his debut LP ‘Time To Recover.’ Now he returns to something like his musical roots, delving deeper into the use of synths and embracing more offbeat melodies. Countering the more uplifting and vocal-led nature of ‘Time To Recover’, Feiertag has recently found himself searching for more sonorous and sombre themes. It has resulted in 'Dive,' a more personal album without any topline songwriting and a more straightforward approach that allows Joris’ musicality to shine through.
The lead track, ‘Living In Slow’, is a quirky and intimate introduction with sped-up vocals, snapping snares and haunting synths that embraces Joris’ breakbeat roots. Things pick up with the steel drums, guitars and swooping synths of 'Cala', which brings to mind Jamie XX before 'Vivid And Hazy' continue the foot-friendly assault with warm keys and soothing vocals shining through. As a drummer himself, Feiertag always immerses himself in making the beats, which shows on 'I Need U'. The track has an infectious UK garage feel that harks back to the artist's first years of producing, as well as to greats like Zed Bias and Wookie.
The excellent 'How U Do It' takes some of its cues from classic UK sounds again, albeit with a heavy dose of Detroit house feelings. 'Nocturnality' dives into late night, hypnotic dance music with a hypnotic repetitive vocal line and some serious bottom end. Having passed peak time, 'Descend' draws us into slower territories and loungey vibes with dark foreboding synths. The title track completes the album with meditative and atmospheric charm, a sweet organ sound and sophisticated jazz drums. It is a blissful climax.
'Dive' is Feiertag's most personal album to date, and it might well be his best.

Kalabrese is back with a beautiful journey in his signature style teaming up with the inter- continental trio Lapcat. Here in a previously unreleased long version that creates magical moments on the dance floor and positive energy wherever you are.

It all started with a community of DJs and beatmakers. Inspired by the various electronic techno + house tingled music from Detroit and Chicago and a deep passion for UK bass music as well as US hip hop and 70’s soul-jazz. This crew of guys from Zurich and the surrounding area combined all of that and started creating a sound which they called b-boy house and teknowsoul. The first bunch of releases brought international breakthrough and artists like Soultourist, Quarion, Cavalier, The Lost Men, and John Daly left a deep impact and sparked the interest of the global dance scene. Back then Alex Dallas hosted the Loud Minority Nights at the infamous Dachkantine in Zurich, inviting special and like-minded international guests. Accompanied by the artists of the Drumpoet Community, this night became a blueprint and was continued in Alex's new club Zukunft (founded in 2005) and to this day the Drumpoet's host institutional nights there.

The club was always the spot where it all came together and where the new music was tested. it was clear from the very beginning that it had to embrace joy, passion, dedication, and positivity. Ron Shiller and Alex Dallas share the same philosophy when it comes to music. They do not jump on trends quickly. In contrary to the usual mechanisms of the hype dance music industry, they let the music breathe like a bottle of good old wine and take the time it needs to present timeless quality dance music.

This compilation manifests the long history of the label, the friendships made over decades, and the honest love for dance music. Drumpoet is more than proud to present a compilation celebrating the label's 15th or even 16th anniversary, with special performances by iconic artists such as Herbert, Roman Flügel, Frank Wiedemann, Manuel Tur, Lauer, John Daly, Kalabrese, Manuel Fischer, Nicola Kazimir, Ripperton and Jimi Jules. A journey into the world of sounds, profound without dogma and as brave and innocent as it gets.

SEE U IN PARADISE (4 IRENE)

Tocotronic - Kapitulation (DJ Koze a.k.a. Adolf Noise unreleased live-remix)

As the nights draw in and the temperature drops, eclectics return with a brace of winter warmers, courtesy of James Rod, both of which are packing enough heat to keep us cosy until the clocks go forward. 

Boarder Pass is cosmic disco with a casual nod to Norway in the loose-limbed stomp as the bass and drums rise and fall into place with calm confidence. 

The synth sound is so warm it's like they've been rendered in pastels by a man in a sweater by an open fire. There's no soporific after effect though, the high arpeggios and throbbing bass see to that. This tune is headed for the dance floor, it's just sorting out the underfloor heating first. 

"Back to Casiopea" shares similar feel, but with the urgency turned up. Shards of guitar ricochet off the glacier walls provided by the synths, which give us a structure that's familiar yet unknown - like finding an outtake of Patrick Cowley producing Tangerine Dream or digging out an hitherto unseen John Carpenter project and realising that it has a previously unheard soundtrack to kill for. 

In fact, Cowley and Carpenter are key touchstones. There's a live feel to these tracks that accentuates the human element. This may be machine music on first reading, but it oozes soul, bleeds spirit, and that comes from a composer who understands perfectly how to place himself at the centre of it all. -Jah Shabby

One of my favourite tracks, an edit of Black Sabbath's 'Planet Caravan'. Respect to DJ Steef for such great work.

Black Sabbath - Planet Caravan (DJ Steef Edit)

Nachdem ich das Tor zum Wunderland passiert hatte, sehe ich nicht weit am Wegrand, vier Gestalten. Als ich mich nähere, erkenne ich, das es vier tanzende Affen, welche reich beschmückt mit Gold und Silber sind. Sie tragen Klamotten im Aufreißer-Stil. Irritiert laufe ich instinktiv auf sie zu. Ich bleibe stehen, da ich bemerke das sie ganz aufgewühlt sind. Nicht weit von ihnen läuft ein Weibchen ihres gleichen an ihnen vorbei. Die vier Affen tanzen heftiger um wahrscheinlich dem Weibchen zu imponieren, doch vergebens. Sie Entdecken mich und kommen vorsichtig näher. Etwas wie mich hatten sie wohl noch nie gesehen, doch angst haben die Vier nicht wie es mir scheint, vielmehr haben sie gefallen daran wie nackt meine Haut doch ist. Sie drehen sich ab, bilden einen kleinen Kreis und beginnen sich zu besprechen. Als sie fertig sind, drehen sie sich wieder zu mir und sagen: „wir wissen, du kommst nicht aus dieser Welt, doch scheinst du ein komischer Vogel zu sein der nicht weiß, wohin er geflogen ist. Wir möchten dir etwas zeigen, ein Ort der Ekstase. Man nennt ihn „Universe Club“, doch bevor wir gehen, müssen wir jemanden ausfindig machen und aufgabeln.“
Ich stimme dem vorhaben der Affen zu unter einer Bedingung: da ich noch immer nicht so recht weiß, wer diese vier Gestalten sind, müssen sie sich vorstellen. 
Sie sagen: „Wir, wir sind die Dancing Wingmen Monkeys und jetzt wird es Wild!“ und somit machen wir uns auf den weg und begeben uns in Richtung Abenteuer.
