Mina Records is back with a pumping dancefloor EP Hey Kids. Label boss, Masaya is leaving behind her alias and has produced this EP under the name of Claudya. Look out for more Claudya releases!!!
“Can you Realize” by Claudya & Ripperton is a deep melodic dream which takes the listener to a different plane, lovely vocals intertwined in this track take the dream to higher levels. “Hey Kids”, is a co-production between longtime friends and partners in crime, Ripperton and Claudya. Each remix is tainted in their own personal colors. Ripperton’s remix has a lighter palette and a subtle groove, perfect for connaisseurs. One can feel the artistry in the treatment of the melodies. Claudia’s take on the track is a few hues darker, more pumping
and has more of a bestial light acid groove yet always light - perfect for the dancefloor!
Whatever your vibe is, this EP has a track to please!
Can you guess who does the vocals?? ��

release date : September 20

03. Claudya & Ripperton - Hey Kid (Claudya mix) - preview

It is always a bit complicated to present the first work of a newcomer. Without any reference or precedent for comparison, only music can express the faith we place in the artist.

When we heard his first demo, issued only a weekend after his first steps on computer music. We were immediately and positively stunned.

Saerus - that's his name - is the vein of 90's, very thoughtful, composed music, it's dark and haunted, at odds with current trends, but totally in the mood of these weird times. It's projective, poetic and astonishing.

We've waited a long time to compile this mini album, but the result is worth it.

In addition you will find three remixes, two by the managers of IRM records: Joff Logartz and Dawad, two artists whose talents are proven. Their versions are indescribable, unusual and dangerously attractive. 
The third is homemade, and we hope will pay tribute to the original.

Have a listen full of strange feelings.

For this fall’s release, we decided to come out with a bang : we’ve gathered top-notch artists with very specific musical personalities around an excellent project, ingeniously elaborated by Sebastian Russell.

To begin with, the title track « Star Cluster » lifts us up with its metallic accents and fantastic string patterns, inevitably making us want to raise our heads towards the sky.

« Hurt People, Hurt People » sounds like we’re looking in the opposite direction, down to earth, observing social interaction. Crowd movements, city pulsations, an illustration of urban life from bird’s perspective.

« Passing through your soul » is questionning, in a dialogue-like form. Its infatuating hook seems to ask the questions of the who and the why. Intimate and obsessing.

Finally, « Distrortion of senses » entirely turns us upside down, an electronic anguish, an electric shiver, a dark and possessive track, the trigger of the story.

We have here all the ingredients for the creation of a story : an ethereal trailer that finally dives into an urban setting, the first palpitations at the introduction of the main caracter and the trouble-causing element, precisely defining the moment where you, dear listeners, will take control and make it your story.

Add to this the individual perspectives of different masters of sound, giving this initial framework its body, depth and diversity.  This release features reworks by nobody less than Alexander Kowalski, Opuswerk and Javier Orduña.

As Kowalski’s « Jupiter8 » - Remix on Star Cluster concludes the intergalactic ride with its atmospheric Nu Disco sound, terrestrial grounds definitively get out of sight.

Opuswerk delivers an « Atomic Soap Opera version » making you picture yourself piloting Appollo X ; A Detroit style vintage mix.

In order to finish with decent comfort, Javier Orduña’s getting sensual. Shivers of anguish are replaced by strange fleshly languors, very subtle work, a finely tuned alchemy.

You’ve got it, this cluster of stars contains some real supernovas, and we’re happy to share them with you.

Musically yours
