FULL INTERVIEW

Sinchi & Friends 108 - Minitel

The premiere signing on Local Suicides (@localsuicide) newly founded label Iptamenos Discos (@iptamenosdisco) is Austrian band Wiener Planquadrat (@wienerplanquadrat). Consisting of Michael Weiler, former member of Burnin Tears (Luv Shack), and Maximilian Atteneder from bands such as Catastrophe & Cure.

Their single release entitled ‘Stillstand’ is the first ever from the duo with the promise of more to come via Iptamenos Discos. This feel good disco vibes track is built on punchy drums and catchy bass lines that channel the legendary spirit of the 90s Downbeat sound of Vienna. The uplifting flow of the song mixed with playful elements and analogue sounds blend beautifully while austropop-esque vocals float over the top. The lyrics describe a journey from the mountains to the sea and paints the picture that one is driving their convertible with the top down and as the sun shines and lush melodies fill the fresh coastal air.

The single includes a remix by Rising Seed (@risingseed) which is the project of Lee Stevens (one of the founders of Luv Shack label) and musician Martin Arnold. Incorporating flutes & 80’s house piano this lively rework is all about letting the good times roll and would be the perfect soundtrack to a tropical beach party that goes until sunrise.

The single will be released with a short edit and a full length club version of the original and the remix on a strictly-limited clear Dubplate 12” and made available digitally on all platforms.

INCOMING : Rees - Three Eyes (Tjade Remix) #BordelloAParigi

Release date : 2022-03-28

Buy : https://bordelloaparigi.com/shop/vinyl/rees-three-eyes-12-w-tjade-remix/

The North of England is known for its musical prowess. Middlesbrough born Rees taps into that musical history while diving deep into lost disco, obscure wave and even the Middle East for his debut for Bordello. Three Eyes is a melting pot. Setting sail on bold beats and rumbling synthlines, Rees steers the listener through cascading chords, shimmering key shifts and serenading sirens to produce a truly unique dancefloor experience. Tjade, of Koi Jaye fame, is on remix duty. The winning formula of the original is adhered to with adjustments and ablutions guiding this interpretation. BPMs rise to give a fresh burst of energy. Rees’ melody is given extra muscle with those same mesmerizing vocals being a driving force for this superb remix. Dynamic and diverse dancefloor dynamite from the Paradiso label boss.

After releasing their critically acclaimed debut single ‘Stillstand’ on Local Suicide’s label Iptamenos Discos the Austrian duo Wiener Planquadrat are returning with their new ‘Dschungel’ EP which includes remixes by legendary electro-punk producer T.Raumschmiere, London-based infamous artist Birds and the uprising disco producer Tech Support.

The title track ‘Im Dschungel’ is a feel-good disco-pop / indie dance tune that speaks about the urban jungle of Vienna. The exuberant combination of arpeggio distortions, sizzling synths keys and jolly vocals transport listeners right in the middle of bubbly and chaotic Viennese jungle.

The B-side ‘AIV’ (short for Alles ist Viel) is a dark disco hymn composed of polyphonic plucked synths, classic 80s beat, and distorted arp brassy sounds, while the vocals evoke the wilderness of a tangled and jumbled mind.

T.Raumschmiere, an artist of multiple facets ranging from punk techno to experimental ambient, maneuvers ‘Im Dschungel’ with abstract and minimalist tones. A steady remix with kick and bass at the forefront wrapped up with bright looping keys.

Birds twists ‘Im Dschungel’ with an acid bassline, dark metallic strings, and adds mystical vocals showcasing her talent to merge multiple atmospheres into one track and always thrive for edginess and originality.

‘AIV’ is revisited by London-based Tech Support, who gives it an all-around bouncy and elegant groove, harmoniously matched with spacey effects, bright bells, and screechy synths.

Wiener Planquadrat is formed by Maximilian Atteneder from Catastrophe & Cure and Michael Weiler, a former member of Luv Shack's Burning Tears. Their work is a union of their two musical background: a mixture of indie, dark disco, and a decent portion of French electro, reminiscing the times they first met. In 2021, they released their critically acclaimed debut single “Stillstand”, which went up onto the top 10 tracks of Austria’s most important youth radio station FM4, was highlighted as track of the day by Byte FM, received glowing reviews on the blogosphere and was described as the “perfect feel-good-disco-track” by German leading electronic print magazine FAZE, while receiving support by DJs such as Joris Voorn, John Digweed, Phunkadelica, Sean Johnston & Damon Jee among others.

The ‘Dschungel’ EP is an electrifying collection of tracks showcasing each artists' distinctive style and colourful palette of musical artistry. It will be released on a strictly limited clear Dubplate 12” and made available digitally on all platforms on April 22nd, 2022.

INCOMING : Omri Smadar & Roy Shpilman - Adama (Original Mix)#HardFist

Release date : 2022-04-28

Buy :  https://hardfist.bandcamp.com/album/omri-smadar-phase-of-motion

Hard Fist 16th release is on the way and is all about fusion of man and machine, connecting traditional singing to the electronic music dance floor attitude. Signed by prolific composer Omri Smadar, the digital EP also includes remixes by French producer Yuksek and Jordanian musician Shadi Khries. 

Based in Tel Aviv, Omri Smadar’s life is all about composing and connecting, playing and performing, studying and story-telling. From deep history and complex theory to the dark art of dot joining, the academically trained composer and pianist is neck deep in all aspects of the culture and artform. He worked with Correspondant, Tel Aviv’s Blue Shadow and collaborated with well-known musicians such as Siam and Fortis, and to extensive remixes, edits and remoulds of influential Israeli music, such as debut album ‘Collage’ [Nana Disc 2020] 

Phase of Motion EP surrounds the idea of fusing organic-traditional human singing and playing with the electronic music dancefloor attitude. Omri’s work is known for interweaving organic, synthetic and analog. This EP is a perfect example, with its heady vocals and chants going hand in hand with percussion and machine sounds. 
Omri places great importance on the common experience the sharing of music creates. That’s why he produced “Phase of Motion” with some of his close friends: Nenor, Roy Shpilman, Shlomo Gronich and Yogev Haruvi.

Adama (written with Shlomo Gronich and produced with Roy Shpilman) samples the "Sheba Band" - an Israeli-Ethiopian children choir from the early 90's.

Berlin based power duo Local Suicide (@localsuicide) are releasing their long-awaited debut album ‘Eros Anikate’ on their own label Iptamenos Discos on 13th May. The title translates to ‘love invincible’ and draws influence from Sophocles’ play, ‘Antigone’ - an ancient Greek play based around tragedy in the aftermath of a civil war.

‘Eros Anikate’ will showcase the duo's renowned ‘technodisco’ sound, blending retro with modern elements, alongside moody baselines and haunting vocals, whilst featuring an array of exciting collaborators and friends including Curses, Hard Ton, Skelesys, Lee Stevens, The Hidden Cameras, Sissi Rada, Theus Mago, Kalipo, and Greek new wave legend Lena Platonos.

‘Moustache’ , the third single taken from the album is a collaboration of Local Suicide with their longtime collaborator and friend, Buenos Aires native Skelesys (@skelesys). Sharing a love for the darker sounds you’d find in horror films and computer simulations, the 4/4 kick drum and woodwind like sounds manipulated into a frenzy bring us a rather interesting juxtaposition of playful horror.

“This one started off as a hymn to Dali, but ended up being a love letter to a dude with a ‘stache”. 

While the track crescendos into an ominous buildup of synths that continue to mesmerise you, the famous Vamparela vocals are the perfect surrealist playground that Dali himself would be proud of. Contrasting the playful with the serious, this track is the perfect oxymoron with post-punk and EBM madness, of which we’d expect nothing less from the two acts coming together.

‘Eros Anikate’ will be released on Vinyl, CD and digitally on Iptamenos Discos on 13th May 2022.

The upbeat 'You' flips the vibe with more textural synths, pixelated leads and smeared chords. The drums are heavy but have funk in their heels and when a wordless vocal loop and bright pads arrive after the atmospheric breakdown, pure joy is sure to wash over any crowd.

INCOMING : Lucca Leeloo - Say Goodbye feat. Pierre Pascual (Endrik Schroeder Lost Love Remix)

We’re strapping ourselves into the disco rocket & blasting off into the DMT cosmos with commander James Bright (@jamesbright) and his debut drop on Sprechen (@sprechenmusic).

‘These Machines’ sees the studio wizard knock out a hat trick of yessmates for us which will demand you jerk your shoulders & look about for some lasers to reach for.

The title track snaps & cracks with some corking jacking percussion & stuttered drum hits before trippy pads & synths swirl in & out with a hooky as heck bass line surrounded by infectious synth stabs that truly mark this one as certified ‘Mutant Disco’.

Vibration goes a touch deeper and jumps right into the warm up section of your Rekordbox playlist whilst still retaining an element of ‘balearic-ness’ about it. Lovely warm piano chords and smooth synths lead the way on this perfect mood setter.

Hot Metropolis ramps up the wonky factor to 11 with a rubber band bass line that jacks like heck and guitar strums that added some serious soul. Pack in plenty of spaced out synths, pads & squelches and this finishes off this E.P. in serious style.

All hail James Bright!

INCOMING : Lau Tropico - Tamma Tamma (Edit) #FauveRecords

Release date : 2022-06-03

Buy : https://fauverecords.bandcamp.com/album/extinct-melodies-from-the-world-vol-1

It's been two years since the first Extinct Melodies, and for this occasion, we thought it was time for a special release.
One that has no borders, no identity, no language barriers, and no influences, just edits from the world.
We're recollected over the years a lot of praise for these series and we would like to thank each and every one of you for playing these edits out everywhere, from Boiler Rooms to living rooms, from Asia to South America, and from the weirdest to the biggest.

This special compilation of 8 edits si brought to you by producers from 20 to 50 years old, it's here to show you that good music knows no age.
A special mention goes to Alpine DJ from Bordeaux with a killer rework, as it's his first release.
Some of the tracks on here have been playing around a lot by some of the biggest names in the game and have turned a couple of heads, like Lau Tropico's "Tamma Tamma" or even RFX's "Blue 周一".
No introduction is needed for Skyrager (1/2 of Psychemagik) whose digging skills are as big as his heart and has conceived a top notch DJ tool edit.
And the last 5 to grace us with their gift are two collectives of DJs who are making their imprint on the music scene such as the duo Dharma Collective from the UK & Jitter from France.
It's a family affair, and you can hear it by the palets of musical touch and colours.

INCOMING : Joe Lewandowski - Soft Machine (Original mix) #NothingIsReal

Release date : 2022-06-10
Buy : https://nothingisrealrecords.bandcamp.com/album/naturale-ep-incl-kasper-bj-rke-remix

We are used to know Nothing Is Real records as a meeting point for different touches of electronic music, with an open mind on new sounds and a strong connection to the disco/indie roots at the same time.
NIR018 perfectly reflects this character: the EP is signed by the French Joe Lewandowski, an artist that came from rock music as a guitarist in various local Parisian bands, landed later on house and techno, acid and disco areas after he moved to New York.
What makes the main production “Naturale” pretty unique is the bpm slowdown, it makes for sure a great tension on the build up before the drop, so simple and so effective.
“Late at night” has a classic 707 drums groove with a shiny nervous and mystic voice on the top, served with a rolling bass that gives the track a perfect move.
On “Soft Machine” you can clearly notice the rock/indie background of Joe, slow tempo/hyper groove and a super catchy finger bass, arpeggios on top guide the flow during the track.
Last but not least, is “Naturale - Transcendentale Version” by the giant Danish producer Kasper Bjørke. He makes his debut on NIR with a hypnotic rework on the original from Lewandowski with a dreamy pad and his ultra recognizable drum groove.

A bold and simple strut welcomes us to this crisp and mechanic monster of a track, immediately joined by energetic and joyfulful squelches and a massive groove surges forth. This robot ecstacy-machine has sputtered to life and we are rolling, surging forward with an uptempo chug, chiming pianos, pristine arpeggios and playful figures whizz by as we shoot for that neon horizon. Well-balanced, never too elaborate, it's Indie-dance bass propulsion, with a deft-touch of melodic tech instincts, and perfect clap-back percussion that only Freudenthal can muster, Branche (Freudenthal Remix) is the perfect siren-call to action, summoning all dancers to get into the zone for a full-contact workout.
