LOS PASTORES presents “THANKYOU PORVENIR EP“ (OBLACK 009)

There is a saying in Spain "the fifth is ever good" that ´Los Pastores´ just made up with “the nineth is ever good”. But, who cares? In Arauz and Snna´s fold it doesn´t matter. There is no time to rest. There is no place for posers. This is a “non stop dancing” scene. In this new EP called ´Thankyou Porvenir´, which includes a track with the same name, ´Los Pastores´ have shown off their strongest electronic character, leaving behind the sassy, cocky House to get to their deepest side. In the track that gives name to the EP, Thankyou Porvenir, they´ve discovered a sensitive side to their music that we didn´t know yet, searching for an atmospheric background to connect with some beautiful but shy vocals. Just the right amount of salt and pepper. After the break, the track carries on with a firm and fat setup for the bassline, that mixes perfectly with the percussion, introduced at the second level. A graceful piece that is intimate and almost conversational. It invites one to close their eyes and dream, taking a laid-back journey into the deepest feelings that invade us. Thanks for taking the risk!

The british producer Luke Solomon wanted to add his own remix of “Thankyou Porvenir” to the Oblack Collection. A remix that is gonna give more than one broken bone in the hip and pelvis. It is music strictly made to dance to, full of energy and showing the craziest side of House. A track where horns and whistles can be heard, even pixelated voices, with an insane 8beat path that gives to the song the exact amount of tasty flavour. No joke fellas! This is a kind of slam-dunk piece for Solomon.

The third track helping this EP to get even hotter is called “Madness”. Loco amigo! It comes with a toxic groove, slowmo style that would easily mesmerize you. The melody line is so simple, yet so powerful, with an easy and playful structure. Even with the repetitive nature of this piece, it is amazing how you remain captured throughout the whole song. A propper BINGO!

“Floros cat” is the last track of the EP, by ´Los Pastores´ with Miguel Lobo from Madrid. Finally, here is the techno. Here it comes, a kick thats stinks of Detroit. It's commanding in its message: This is techno and we need more bpms, more reverb and more distorsion. It´s an almost poisoned track, especially when that addictive Detroit kick comes and goes. This is a serious banger that closes “Thankyou Porvenir EP” (Oblack 009) which places ´Los Pastores´ at the epicentre of the Spanish electronic scene. Nice cars and women should be indebted to artists like this. Los Pastores, gracias por venir.

No hay noveno malo, ¿o eran quinto? Qué más da, en el redil electrónico de Arauz y Snna –tanto monta monta tanto- no hay lugar para el descanso –aquí se baila sin parar- y el postureo solo está permitido si roza lo bucólico, oiga. En este nuevo “Thankyou Porvenir” (Original Mix), tema que nomina el EP, Los Pastores se muestran mucho más electrónicos que nunca. Dejando atrás el house cálido, cosmopolita e irreparablemente hedonista -marca de la casa pastoril- se lanzan a espacios menos felices y ociosos, más mentales. Un toque de deep taciturno para un desarrollo tech en el que los guiños vocales y las brumas sintéticas le ponen sal y pimienta al asunto. Tras el break central el tema continua su desarrollo firme, bien atemperado, y apoyado en ese permanente bass-line -bien fat- que tan bien marida con lo percusivo, ubicado aquí en un discreto segundo plano. En definitiva: gracias por el riesgo.

El remix que de este “Thankyou Porvenir” ha perpetrado el británico Luke Solomon es un suerte de fanfarria marciana y chicaguera que eleva el original a los altares del disloque de caderas y lo ubica en el centro gravitatorio de la música de baile: el dancefloor. House alocado y futurista, en el que no faltan pitos, claxones y hasta voces pixeladas. Desmadre controlado en clave 8beats. Solomon se sale del mapa con esta revisión, sin duda. Aquí hay mucha guasa, camaradas.

El tercer tema en discordia de este OBLACK009 se llama “Madness”. Locos -¿o es mejor decir tontos?- serán los que no se sometan, por vocación propia, al bailongo tóxico, slow y tórrido que nos trae este tema pastoril. Su estructura es simple, pura, y lo que lo hace diferente es todo el aderezo de sonidos que van saliéndonos al paso en su escucha. Juguetón, machacón, bien pegadito a tu cintura de avispa… y chulo, muy chulo.

“Floros cat” con el madrileño Miguel Lobo cierra el EP. Y al fin surge el techno, el bombo marcial con aroma de Detroit que frunce el ceño a cada beat. Y suben los bmps y se suceden los efectos reverberantes, distorsionados, retorcidos. Y vuele ese bombo gordo, adictivo… ¿venenoso? Sin duda, un temazo para cerrar este “Thankyou Porvenir EP” (Oblack 009) que ubica a Los Pastores, de nuevo, en una posición de excepción dentro del panorama de la electrónica nacional que se baila y a través de la que también se piensa. Dale Lina, que llegamos tarde. Y gracias a ti por venir, tonta…

Premiere: Point G & The Martinez Brothers Feat. Filsonik 'What's The Point?'

For their part Los Pastores, playing at home, they look at it with the same underground perspective but closer to the dance floor. With such special ambiance found in all the beats created by the Oblack bosses. They take it straight to the dance floor like always, with those weird off tempo vocals that is becoming their international, consolidated trademark.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Por su parte Los Pastores, jugando en casa, lo revisan desde un punto de vista igual de underground pero más cercano a la pista de baile. Sin despojarlo de ese ambiente tan especial, que le pilla todos los beats, los capos de Oblack se lo llevan sibilinamente al centro del dancefloor y sacando petróleo del mismo lo elevan al baile. Como siempre, en los temas pastoriles, nunca faltan esos guiños vocales extraños y atemporales que son ya parte de su consolidada marca internacional.

B1- Tato feat Andrew Grant - Rewayna (Los Pastores Remix)

"Hi here is a song I did last winter, I never really wanted to release it as it’s a special one in the way that it’s not the music that I use to do, it was about a moment and a state of mind.

However I had great reactions while playing at some friends and cozy places so I wanted to find a way to spread it so here it is as a free gift for you, a tribute to the sun and especially a present for the fresh Mobilee Pool Party new residency in Ibiza!"

mobilee134 - And.Id „Erotica"

1) Erotica (Original)
2) Erotica (Subb-an Terrace Remix)

Talented Birmingham producer and DJ, Subb-An, joins the mobilee label for the first time ever in remixing And.Id's 2010 mobilee hit, "Erotica".

Subb-An started out producing heavily and taking-on local residencies eventually cultivating a huge following and winning over the respect and admiration of key electronic music labels and figures. Releasing on Crosstown Rebels, Spectrical, Saved, and My Favourite Robot, in addition to cranking out distinguished remixes of Jamie Woon, Lana Del Ray, Noir & Haze and, Hollis P Monroe, Subb-An's hard work and drive didn't go unnoticed as he rattled the international circuits, subsequently, appearing behind the decks of highly acclaimed festivals, parties, and venues such as Fabric, Watergate, Warehouse, D'Edge, Movement, The Electric Pickle, Hot Natured at Sonar, The Garden Festival, Basics, Space in Ibiza, and BPM Festival. 

Originally released on the mobilee 065, "Erotica" is one third of the EP, "I Will Be There", and is And.Id's most successful mobilee hit to boot. Mobilee's long-running relationship with Subb-An stems eight years ago during a showcase in Birmingham where they were acquainted with Subb-An as a fresh and driven resident DJ not yet resting on his laurels. Since then, he's been named DJ Magazine's "Best Breakthrough DJ" and together with Adam Shelton, has launched his own label, One Records, in 2009, and purchased a pub venue where him and Adam have hosted the likes of Sven Väth, Loco Dice, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, and Mathias Tanzmann, winning the hearts of locals, filling up over capacity, often selling out of tickets, and using the venue as a means to experiment and impress.

All systems were go when the Mobilee heads were approached by Subb-An himself about re-releasing. This summer is sure to re-spark the love of „Erotica".

And.Id - Erotica (Original Mix)

RELEASE: 4th of July 2011 @ PM Recordings, including full length original mix, dub mix and other remixes..

Robaco Bossa ft. Jamie Lee - Where You Go (Radio Edit)

As an artist with already a lot of very successful material to his name, Rodriguez Jr.’s debut album Bittersweet is a highly anticipated release. There are in fact many reasons why people should hold their breath for it - an impressive 11 track body of work that features some of the well renowned and loved Rodriguez Jr. sonic traits, as well as a lot of new and previously unchartered musical ground. It simultaneously presents techno, atmospheric dub, hypnotic, melancholy and hands down hedonistic music, and with a focus on exploring textures and moods, there is something here for everyone to get lost in.

Rodriguez Jr., aka Oliver Mateu, was originally introduced to music through radio in the south of France, where he closely followed a selection of 80s bands, as well as forming a strong love for synthesizers. It wasn’t long before he was inspired to start his own group with partner Giles Escoffier ‘The Youngsters’, which quickly signed to Laurent Garnier’s F-Communications, taking them to some of the biggest clubs and festivals around the world. After great success, the project was put on hold and over the last five years Mateu has been given the space to focus more on his solo work and finally the opportunity to create an album.

In spite of his French origins, both Olivier Mateu's artist name and productions lean more towards his father's Spanish roots, with a Mediterranean warmth and party atmosphere often coming to the fore. Bittersweet, however, embodies influences from all over the world. Inspired during recent trips to Japan, Canada and Europe, the voyaging Rodriguez Jr. accompanied by his laptop lay down ideas in hotel rooms after playing in clubs and absorbed the different environments around him into his work. With each country creating a new experience, his touring has played a big part in the variety of tracks that are presented here.

Whilst the spice of Bittersweet was captivated in far away places, the main body of the production of the album was carried out in Mateu’s hidden away studio in Belgium, filled with many loved pieces of analogue gear and synthesizers. Ranging from the Roland TR909, for a classic house drum feel, to the Korg MS10 for dirtier sounds, and a selection of Roland keyboards to choose from, “I am definitely a synth fetishist! Ahaha!” (Rodriguez Jr.). Each has contributed in Rodriguez Jr.’s quest to create an artistic project of the highest quality and creativity that he is capable of, with outstanding results. He has also drawn on the creative input of two musicians who are featured in two of the tracks – And.Id playing his trumpet and Cari Golden’s vocals.

A masterpiece that truly reflects the Rodriguez Jr. of today, it also offers us enough variety and surprise to keep us inspired by this ever-evolving artist. Reflecting on the tracks Bittersweet refers to the contradictory forces at play within the music – it may be beautiful and it may be sweet – but be careful of the party animal it can unleash both in the creator and within all of you present on the dancefloor!

Ninth referente by Monza Ibiza that embarked on a new adventure in the hands of four artists, three of them national and the other as if it were.

The original comes hand in hand with some old friends of the house. Los Pastores have taken command, giving name to the new reference of the second month of the year with a touch of tech in all your cuts accompanied by a vocal that tends to darkness but without crossing the limits.

Ismael Rivas aka Riva is the first to participate in the play contributing its special touch which leads to achieving success after successes in the past year. Ismael plays with a shake during all the track that will make us to move around the track without being aware of the distance traveled.

Francisco Allende, the Cadenza guy, joins with the deep sound to the cosy and warm atmosphere the ep. Peace and calm in a court which serves perfect link to unite two totally opposite styles.

To close all the ep, we leave David Herrero no doubt offers us the most dacner track on the release. Tech-house from the minute that will introduce us without giving has a continuous movement that only rest when it ends.

Four tracks for a new reference that promises to give much to talk about in the coming months.
