Lisa Angel - Show Me (Marc Piñol edit)

East London duo Payfone are back on Golf Channel with an EP of soulful proto-house and disco tunes that should not go unnoticed. After "Paradise", "Quarantine" and "Catholic Central", here comes "Justified", with the title track on A side and "We Are Chains" premiered here on the flip side, quite reminiscent of the track "Paradise". The production remains slick, Louis Howard Jones' vocals has an undeniable catchy tone and the mood is dystopian as hell. "Justified" is out on Friday, be quick !

Moderno

Moderno (Marc Piñol Acid Remix)

The strands intertwined, a distinctive narrative with an unexpected twist. The book was enchanted, captivating and inherently difficult to put down. The plot meandered and weaved a wicked tale, one which might be further told throughout the ages. It was a mystical journey of intrigue, a web if you will which was hard to break free from. The language flowed with a graceful elegance, as if each prophecy of forthcoming doom might in some way reflect the readers future. 

Leonidas & Hobbes deliver what might perhaps be one of the "balearic highlights" of the summer months. A sun kissed track with an elegant melody and a hint of mystery.

Lights of Fire

Dirty Darlins (Original Mix) - Shiny Objects

Flash Atkins has pulled in Charlie Sinclair, singer from one of Manchester's hottest new bands, Sylvette for a collaboration that promises to be the start of something special.  The track has already been gathering heat, with Bill Brewster calling it 'one of his favourite house records of 2017' and reports of it rocking ALFOS and The Warehouse Project.

The original has a throbbing sub over clipped techy drums, muted guitar and an incessant Moog riff.  But the killer punch is Charlie Sinclair's soulful, intimate vocals that sit beautifully over the music.  The groove is locked and builds to the break where a hint of disco hits the floor before the final section brings in the bells to devastating effect.  The end result is a track that is destined to knock socks off in the coming months.  You were warned. 

Sean Johnston liked it so much he asked to do a remix and the result is everything you would expect from the Hardway Brothers.  He keeps the original elements but toughens things up with added oomph, taking it in a proto house and techno direction.  

Finally Tal M. Klein strips the track back to it's bare basics with devastating effect. Just a kick, the guitar and serious compression provide space for the tripped out vocal and a truly psychedelic deep house experience.

Flash Atkins & Charlie Sinclair - That Hit (Hardway Bros Remix)

Flash Atkins & Charlie SInclair - That Hit

The cornerstone track from Chloé’s new album, an adventurously dark landscape dotted by Montreal rock band Suuns’ singer Ben Shemie’s vocals, Recall deserved this long-awaited quartet of astounding remixes, which serve as extensions of her latest full-length Endless Revisions’ second single, released last October on Lumière Noire, the label founded by Chloé.
Moiré, Matthew Dear’s latest signing to his Ghostly International label (which released the London artist’s debut album in early 2017), retained a smattering of Ben’s syllables, setting them to a captivating retro- futuristic remix that straddles two worlds, along the milestones of a restrained beat in a mesmerizingly ethereal and ghostly road trip that could last forever.
German Crosstown Rebels signee Jonathan Kaspar’s version is a more banging techno version, rounding out the EP’s wide array of moods and genres. Over a formidably progressive build-up, the mood remains dark thanks to Ben’s stretched-out vocals, and Recall’s original universe is made more dynamic with a sped-up tempo, added percussions, and a concluding harmonisation finale that brings it all into the light. Douglas Greed, previously remixed Chloé’s Driven (released on BPitch Control back in 2015,) similarly chops up the vocals, but takes them down a different road, reassembling the original’s elements to create a different track, resulting in a fascinating free-form re-reading, an adroit upcycling, a long detour through the German producer’s favoured poetic techno backroads – possibly inspired by the surroundings of Jena, Greed (a.k.a. Mario Wilms’) hometown, and homebase of the Freude Am Tanzen label, the serious stable of geniuses directed by the incomparable Robag Wruhme.
In a more motoric register, Autarkic’s re-imagines Recall via a different narrative lens, re-populating and grounding it all at once. The Israeli Red Axes accomplice, who released an excellent debut album (I Love You Go Away) on Disco Halal last April, has a knack for propelling fanatics of rock urgency straight to the dancefloor. A gang of machines amplifies Shemie’s voice, highlighting its minutiae of suffering and pleasure, leading the listener into dawn.

PREMIERE : Chloe - Recall (Autarkic Remix)

Indonesian psych rock, post techno, electronic fusion band Sunmantra brings two stunning original dance floor rockers to Roam Recordings. The Jakarta based trio comprised of Jonathan Pardede, Bernardus Fritz, and Andreas Barlenando combine guitars, tripped out soundscapes, and electronic rhythms into the Esoteric EP. The title track brings the psychedelic energy with a warped vocal weaved through off kilter synth work while When You Bite My Lips has a slight surfer punk vibe that pulses through a heavy driving beat.
The EP is backed up by two outstanding remixes from two heavy hitting Roam alumni artists. English artist Timothy Clerkin takes on the title track and brings down the tempo while at the same time adding heavy analog vibes with a hint of 90s rave. Italian wizard Fabrizio Mammarella flips the guitar melody of the original When You Bite My Lips giving it a sweet dreamy feel reinforced by a melodic acid line. Psychedelic, woozy, driving, punk, guitar, acid jams. and a hell of an addition to Roam Recordings.

Null + Void  - Where I Wait feat. Dave Gahan Remixes Pt.2

Following on from the first tranche of remixes of Null + Void’s ‘Where I Wait’, this extra package pulls out yet more big guns.

For Null + Void, the project of Kurt Uenala, the Swiss born producer and multi-instrumentalist who has a long history of working with synth legends, ‘Where I Wait feat. Dave Gahan’ was a straight up highlight of last year’s album ‘Cryosleep’.

Here Null + Void himself takes on one of the re works, twisting the original into a hard hitting electro bomb. Dave Gahan’s vocals float over the pulsing and punchy blips and bleeps to form a striking partnership.

The other two mixes are by Danish legend Kasper Bjørke, who opts for a more laconic pace - a chugging and playful groove provide the bedrock for the iconic vocals.

Bjørke also supplies an instrumental version to please the DJs, giving space to his exquisite production, right up to the compressed vinyl samples and detuned, fuzzy synths.

Man Power’s Me Me Me label proudly presents a very special new compilation, ‘We We We’, which
will see all profits donated to the vital Help Refugees charity. The release boasts 25 new and
exclusive tracks from a wide range of artists both new and established including Pional, Juan
Maclean, Shit Robot, Medlar, ASOK, Ian Blevins and more. As well as the full album, two limited,
vinyl-only samplers will also be released, with each featuring one exclusive track that is not
available anywhere digitally.
The recipient of the albums profits, Help Refugees, is the leading UK NGO in a new movement of
humanitarian aid, helping to plug the gaps in services not provided to those displaced by war. The
man behind the compilation’s concept is Man Power aka Geoff Kirkwood, an established producer
with credits for his off kilter mix of house, disco, ambient and techno on labels like John Talabot’s
Hivern Discs, ESP Institute and Jennifer Cardini’s Correspondent.
Kirkwood says, “I have wanted to do a compilation of this nature for a long time. I’m incredibly lucky,
as well as eternally grateful, to know so many talented artists who were willing to donate wonderful
music towards this important cause.” The gratitude clearly flows both ways with Help Refugees
director Philli Boyle saying “We are so grateful to Man Power and to all the incredible artists who
have shown solidarity with displaced people across the world”.
The superb compilation kicks off in plaintive fashion with absorbing ambient tracks from Ian Blevins,
Dharma and ASOK. Pale Blue’s ‘Eyes’ then brings deep and persuasive drums into the picture with
thoughtful, sombre synths lingering up top. There is a real beauty to much of the selection here, as
demonstrated by more wistful chords on Forriner’s lush deep house day dream ‘Sunrise in
Bensham’, while jacking dance floor tackle comes from Pink Skull and Medlar’s pumping 909 drums
and the pixelated melodic delights of Christophe’s rugged, Chicago-indebted jack track ‘Winder’.
Man Power himself pops up with an epic nine minute opus that is broad, sweeping house music at
its most dramatic and evocative, and Pional’s ‘Night Charmer’ is a typically inventive cut with icy
drones and dehumanised vocals. Big hitters like Shit Robot offer a heavy dose of dub house, while
‘Quantume Reach’ by Juan Maclean (feat Amy Douglas) is gorgeously off beat house with
thoughtful chords and spine-tingling vocals with a poignant message.
This is a compilation jam-packed with a broad array of accomplished and standout sounds, and
that it is all for charity only makes it an even more essential and welcome release.
The full album is released exclusively via Bandcamp on 4th May in exchange for a ‘no minimum’
donation to the charity, with the label asking to please give generously.

Autarkic is an one man musical phenomenon bursting with untapped potential well beyond the edge of creative discovery and has a bag of tricks exciting enough to turn an eye or two. The Tel Aviv-based producer, responsible for releases on Disco Halal, Turbo Recordings and Le Temps Perdu, talks about his influences, upcoming EP on Life And Death, studio sessions with Manfredi Romano and the recently released remix package on Disco Halal, next to carving out a club oriented, sloppy dub mix brimming with unreleased Autarkic material and current favorites.

He is an in-demand remixer, having reworked artists such as Alien Alien, The Asphodells, Haules Baules, Craig Bratley and Ajello. It is with great pleasure that our favourite number is taken up with this mans music! Vol. 23 of Hostage Radio is now live!!

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds return with the third single to be taken from their No. 1 album 'Who Built the Moon?' Out tomorrow on 12" and limited edition picture disc, 'She Taught Me How To Fly' comes backed by a remix from the one and only Justin Robertson under his Deadstock 33s banner! A glorious throwback to the halcyon days when rave and rock were not so separate, as Noel's voice floats over Justin's elegiac synth melodies.
