For the second release of Cartulis sub label ALT delivers a VA with some of the hottest producers around. A1 is Prince de Takicardie's new aka. A rolling stripped back track with maximum effectiveness for the dancefloor. Uruguayan DJ/Producer Cabanelas delivers A2 with Sambu y Los Morsas. A techno/house infused track with a touch of romanticism on the back. Cartulis resident and master of the craft Z@p brings the heat to the B side with what some would feel like a resemblance to his past work for Cartulis with Tracid. After hours tip!
B2 is a techno work out by old school producers Justin Drake and Paranoid London's main man Quinn Whalley that will keep any dancefloor engaged.

Z@p - Yeartail

SAIS005.5 — a companion piece to the PMA EP by B-2DEP’T released on SAISEI earlier this year — is a unique one-sided 10” EP featuring a remix by Uruguayan producer Z@p. The Phonoteque resident reworks ‘BSMH’ with a classic 80s electro beat and bassline, funking up the groove for all the breakdancers in the crowd. The original vocodered lyrics — “Body/Sonic/Mental/Health” — resonate today as much as they did back in 1993, acting as a mantra for a new rave generation.

Warm welcome to the label this time comes to the duo of producers from Netherlands called pH Project. The musical union formed by Pelle and Herra that are both have been doing what they do for many years and played alongside as well many admirable artists which you can find on the archives of the internet if the curiosity will get the best of you. The maestros of the project have provided us with 3 ready to tremor up the speakers cuts with their signature groove and knowledge that they have acquired in the trenches of rave during their activity on the scene. Finalising this 12” vinyl cut is Levat, the producer who doesn’t need introduction as his persona and non-stop dedication for music speaks for itself. Taking non-standard approach of taking stems from all the originals hence the name of the work is “Thritrakk”, combining the elements of all three tracks we have this dark electro monster audio gracing the B2 side. The work of a collaboration of styles and sonically dedicated minds have resulted into this EP “Obvitrip” coming to life for us to enjoy.
