*** ’THE SECOND BEST TIME IS NOW’—EXCLUSIVE 2019 CHARITY COMPILATION*** PLEASE DONATE -> https://tarteletrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-second-best-time-is-now

Tartelet Records is proud to present its 2019 compilation ‘The Second Best Time is Now’, featuring nine unreleased tracks from its pool of esteemed artists. This year, all proceeds will be donated to the Natural Resources Defense Counsel, one of the world’s most effective environmental action organizations. 

Ho ho ho—Tartelet Records has once again reached into its secret stash of tricks and dug out some incredible gems. Following 2016’s compilation success with all proceeds sent to Syria’s White Helmets, the 2019 Christmas release has attracted an even broader spectrum of sound from nine of the label’s most honorable artists.  

Featuring Tartelet Records’ signature eclectic mix of genres, Christmas is saved with unreleased works by Wayne Snow and digitalluc, jitwam, Space Ghost, Glenn Astro, Kasper Marott, Verner, N.O.T.E, and label head Dirk 81. Each track has been handpicked by the artist themselves to represent their unique style in support of a bold charitable cause.  

This year, the Natural Resources Defense Counsel (NRDC) has been selected as the recipient of all proceeds. As one of the world’s most prominent environmental protection organizations, it strives to protect nature in ways that advance the long-term welfare of present and future generations. Tartelet Records is proud to support this important mission with its exclusive end-of-year release. 

Tartelet Records’ 2019 Christmas compilation can be downloaded for free but listeners are encouraged to donate what they feel is appropriate. All donations go towards the Natural Resources Defense Counsel to support our planet’s most pressing problems. To find out more visit www.nrdc.org. 

The compilation will be available on Bandcamp December 2nd and all digital and streaming services from December 15th.

Special thanks to digitalluc, Glenn Astro, jitwam, Kasper Marott, Nelson of the East (N.O.T.E), Space Ghost, Verner, and Wayne Snow for donating their musical works, to The Emperor of Antarctica for the artwork, and Walter Coelho for mastering all tracks free of charge.

Pedro Zopelar is a musician, producer and DJ based in São Paulo, Brazil. Known for his many different projects like the duo “My Girlfriend” with Benjamin Sallum, the electronic performative act “Teto Preto” and his effervescent party “ODD” - Zopelar presents “Joy Of Missing Out” on Apron Records! a collection of 17 tracks that represents the actual direction of his solo works.

“This album is my most personal work till now, it’s a compilation of tunes I did when I had free time to just study and do whatever I want, without any pressure or preconceived ideas. For me as producer and musician was always really important to walk into different paths to keep myself always in the position of apprentice, so I consider these songs like expressions of someone who’s trying to achieve self knowledge thought the act of making and listening to music”

Sweet Lemonade Sisters - June 2020

Selectors Assemble are hyped to premiere a track from Szajna's debut 4 track solo EP titled "M41" - soon to drop on the Phuture Shock label.

Already bubbling under the surface of Manchester’s diverse music scene for some time, Bill Szajna-Hopgood, better known as Szajna has been carving out a name for himself far beyond the city of late - as a producer and DJ with a certain penchant for the broken beat genre. In recent years his productions – largely in the form of unreleased dubs and re-edits - have been making waves on the underground; garnering support from DJ’s across the board, including bruk forefather IG Culture and various members of the Selectors Assemble crew. While last summer saw the Manc resident score a V/A appearance on EVM 128 and James Rudie’s Dance Regular imprint.

Track titled ‘Spooky’ connects the dots between broken beat, grime and dark garage, in turn revealing a much darker side of Szajna’s sound palette. Built around rugged, syncopated beats, and interjected with ice-cold synth motifs and dysphoric pads, the underside boasts a menacing b-line that channels the legacy of Drum’n’Bass and nods to the early works of UKG innovators like Groove Chronicles and Zed Bias.

Sydney dancefloors owe a lot to Setwun.
And lucky for us his hard drives are now being exposed.

Dedicated to the uplift, he and his music raise us higher and higher, and now
Mandarin Dreams have the honour of presenting two soulful cuts off his upcoming EP, Our World.

This is a timely delivery for a society wearing the pain of it’s awakening.
And to heal, we first must listen.

Our World is a collection of worship songs. To the god almighty,
music.A celebration of the power of creation, and its ability to unite us with ourselves, and each other.

This is Our World.

Setwun delivers two holy gifts in Reach and Steamdown. Both infectious rhythms are currently being tested to treat The Disease.
Use these gifts to find hope.
Listen alone. Listen together.
Raise it up.
