Nice track, even when played much faster!

Sick Track, but the buy link seems to be broken?

She knew a thing or two about suffering; in fact she could probably write a whole book about it. All the cliches had been thrown her way: 'every cloud has a silver lining', 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger', 'when one door closes, another door opens' and so on... She'd learnt to smile and nod, rather than retort with sarcasm. That said, with each strike or set back there had always been an evaluation, a lesson or a coping mechanism she'd take away and apply to the next situation.

As a way of connecting cities and artists during lockdown, Offenbach's Live At Robert Johnson and Leipzig’s Riotvan have joined forces for a new collaborative release, 'PLAYRVN001'. Made up of five tracks that link up two artists, the EP gives us a window into the sonic foundations of each imprint and the synergy between them both. Collaborations come from Roman Flügel & Rebolledo, Jennifer Touch & Chinaski, New Hook and Perel, Fort Romeau & Panthera Krause and Horkheimer & Peter Invasion & Gregor Habicht, spanning everything from synth pop to cosmic disco, breakbeat and Italo.

The new release by Fabio Me Llaman Soltero and Don Ipanema Boi on the promising label Richmerch is what we would call “batidão” in Brazil, something like “strong beat”, in a free translation, and it could easily be played during a Baile Funk in Rio de Janeiro due to the strong influence of the spicy and vibrant Funk Carioca in it. “Guatemalan Brigadeiro” has Brazilian influence in its title as well: “Brigadeiro” is a nationwide beloved dessert that can be defined as a bonbon “between a fudgy chocolate truffle and a Tootsie Roll”.

Fun fact: Brigadeiro is Fabio’s favourite dessert, and reportedly, Don Ipanema’s girlfriend prepares the best brigadeiro in the world, because of this the song was named like that. “We wanted to make a simple and non-serious idea with a good and aggressive rhythm that could express the Brazilian and Guatemalan cultures using elements from both countries”, according to Fabio.

Another fun fact: “Fabio Me Llaman Soltero is a character conceptualized by my strong Latin boyband influences that I had when I was a kid, actually I personally met one of the greatest boybands in history: Magneto (Mx). This happened because my mom was a really good friend of the mom of one of the Magneto members. So, Fabio is a rare hybrid between Julio Iglesias, Flavio Cesar, Kairo & Magneto (all Latin pop legends) and he loves a good suntan, yachts and beautiful chicas. My music is inspired in that lifestyle”, said Fabio.

Don Ipanema Boi is Fabio’s brother (real one) and his character comes from his obsession for the Brazilian culture (his girlfriend – the-best-brigadeiro-in-the-world girl – is from São Paulo, by the way). That’s why his music – both DJ sets and productions – has a strong Brazilian feeling.

“Guatemalan Brigadeiro” recipe: Lasers from old game consoles currently used in shitty arcades in abandoned spots in the historic district in Guatemala City, throbbing and striking basslines and vocals from Brazil.

PREMIERE029 // Fabio Me Llaman Soltero & Don Ipanema Boi - Guatemalan Brigadeiro (Original Mix)

Javi Redondo releases a 5-track EP on Dischi Autunno featuring 3 originals, with the remaining tracks consisting of remixes of lead track ‘Rythmo’ from Pablo Bozzi (aka Lapse of Reason) and Cosmo Vitelli. The pace across the EP may be quite sedate, but the sounds within are anything but: blending analogue techno manoeuvres with a disco-inflected methodology, the producer paints a picture of prime-time energy with a heaped spoon of fun. 

‘Black 5th’ draws heavily on this energy, static, patient acid jittering forward slowly and with intent as the sci-fi-esque samples and spooked electronics flutter in and out of audibility. ‘Non Sei Qui’ takes the energy out of the stars and into an EBM horror soundtrack, shattered vocal samples and 80’s synth leads bringing the listener deeper into the intensifying groove.

‘Rythmo’ sets the bar, gritty bass sludging past a gate of motorik drums. True to its name, the rhythm develops swiftly, krautrock-edged energy gathering momentum as the percussion suite, faintly coloured with house music tropes, reaches for the stars. 

Pablo Bozzi, in the vein of Space Dimension Controller, adds a cinematic punch to ‘Rythmo’, transforming the original into an enigmatic, almost trance-like piece, while Cosmo Vitelli’s ‘K hole’ remix pulls the other way, using a stylised view of the percussion as an ephemeral layer above treacle-thick bass and whirring, panic-stricken machinery.

Neuroses are caricatures of the great social products of art, religion and philosophy. Hysteria is a caricature of a work of art, a neurosis of obsession is a caricature of a religion, Paranoid delirium is a caricature distortion of a philosophical system.
Our Lyon friends from Hard Fist imprint clenched fists tightly in these  everyone's difficult times and launching their first digital VA compilation.
"La Danse #1 is a first digital compilation of a promising series including lots of international talented producers we support and love. Following our heart and taste for mixed influences and creed, La Danse is a tribute to the dance floor putting together organic works to bring a new energy in clubs.
Think of a body: warm, smooth, intense, unrestrained, and apply to it to music.  From la Danza de los Voladores during Mesoamerican rituals to the Maenads in Greek mythology, dancing is part of social life from the outset, and will always be. Because dancing frees body and mind, this compilation series preaches for an uninhibited and extravagant dance."  - Hard Fist Records*
Our pick up is London based Kincaid who brings this low- tempo asidistic, techno thriller where hints of acid, techno and wave balance this rougher edge, smoothing down those creased lines for a style that adheres to no boundaries. Just like Sequoia Paranoia

Premiere: Kincaid - Voices From The Year 3000 [Futureboogie]

Since the Covid-19 lockdown began the music and events industry has been thrown into unchartered waters, leaving artists and online media in a financially vulnerable position, and with much more time on their hands.

To help some of those artists, and provide Ransom Note with much-needed financial support, in April RN reached out to some friends of the website with the challenge to make a track in collaboration with another producer, musician or vocalist, remotely. The result was ‘Pen Pals’, a compilation featuring 15 collaborations. 

Following the reception of the first release, they decided to embark on volume two, enlisting a fresh group of artists and musicians to take up the challenge. 40 artists stepped up to the plate and 19 tracks were produced culminating in a compilation spanning a vast musical breadth.

Due to the current situation they have increased royalties for all artists involved and, whilst the Covid-19 lockdown restrictions apply, accounting will be processed fortnightly. Profits from the compilation will also provide financial support for Ransom Note who have been heavily impacted by the halt of the events industry. 

On Juneteenth (19/06/2020) they will donate all profits from sales to Black Minds Matter - a UK charity making mental health topics relevant and accessible for all black people. On this date Bandcamp will be matching all sales with a donation to NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
