PREMIERE: Boaksi - The Sunrise (STEPS-002)

Exclusive: Sakro, Max Jacobson - Walking Into Mirrors

Renowned for his longstanding affiliation with the esteemed RAWAX family, Sakro embarks on an artistic odyssey alongside Chicago's very own Max Jacobson, culminating in the creation of a masterful musical triptych titled the "Walking Into Mirrors EP." This collaborative endeavor stands as a testament to the intersection of talent and innovation, weaving together a tapestry of sound that beckons the listener to traverse realms both deep and intoxicating.

At the forefront of this auditory journey lies the titular track, "Walking Into Mirrors," a mesmerizing composition that unfolds with the precision of a well-oiled machine. From its onset, a pulsating House groove sets the stage, drawing the audience into a rhythmic embrace that refuses to relent. With each successive loop, the track delves deeper into the psyche of the dancer, its ethereal base-synth line casting a spell as enchanting as it is irresistible. Sakro and Jacobson prove themselves virtuosos of the craft, seamlessly blending elements of House and depth to create an experience that transcends the confines of the dancefloor.

Yet, it is not merely the infectious rhythms or the hypnotic melodies that define the "Walking Into Mirrors EP." Rather, it is the symbiotic relationship between Sakro and Jacobson, their creative synergy palpable with each passing beat. As the title track unfolds, it becomes abundantly clear that this collaboration is more than the sum of its parts; it is a testament to the power of musical camaraderie, a celebration of shared passion and vision.

In the continuum of their EP, Sakro and Jacobson leave an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of their audience, igniting a fervent desire for more. With each track, they invite listeners on a sonic expedition, guiding them through landscapes both familiar and uncharted. From the housey depths of "Walking Into Mirrors" to the spicy allure of their accompanying tracks, the duo crafts an experience that resonates long after the final note fades into the ether.

In essence, the "Walking Into Mirrors EP" stands as a testament to the boundless possibilities inherent in collaboration, a testament to the enduring legacy of RAWAX family's commitment to pushing the boundaries of electronic music. With Sakro and Jacobson at the helm, the journey into the mirrors of sound is nothing short of transformative, leaving an indelible imprint on the very fabric of dance music itself.

Gabriele (@ggaabbrriieellee) collects music, occasionally enjoys playing weird tunes to small dancing crowds, run a small record label called @Sunnycrypt and also spends some of his happiest days working in a record shop. Driven by a strong curiosity towards a wide range of musical genres coming from different eras and different cultural contexts, he co-curated the "Italian Dancefloor Outsiders 1987 - 1994" project, a retrospective compilation of under-the-radar leftfield club music released by Sound Metaphors' THANKYOU.

Two hours and a quarter is approximately the time of a car ride from Milano - the place I’ve been living for 10 something years now - to Massa, my hometown, in the northern end of Tuscany.
This mix kind of tries to embody both length and feeling wise one of those travels, the mixed feelings in kind of leaving a part of my current life behind while embracing memories from the past, adapting to a much slower peace, feeling the breeze of the sea and the salt on my skin, deep diving into a river, hiking a hill… or maybe I’m just overthinking as per usual, and this mix is just a selections of tunes I really like that might be a good fit for your next car ride : )

@mazewski @verlake @fixedrhythms

Mazewski and Verlake kick off our Fixed Rhythms digital single series with a heady minimal techno cut that’s got the sauce…a loopiness that you never tire of and brain tingling snappy percussion on top. Both artists are representing the Polish underground on their own terms. Mazewski has two sold out 12”s on Brutaż, and Verlake has released on Diffuse Reality, Jungle Gym Records, Father ad Son, K-HOLE TRAX, mystictrax. He also co-runs his own label, Laral Tapes, together with Dextre.

Alongside the original, there are two fabulous remixes. Japan’s Hizuo brings a delightfully playful and psychedelic breakbeat remix. Hizuo was featured in Mixmag Asia’s “Artists Exciting Us In 2024”, and I’m sure we can expect lots more great material from him. Then for the second remix, London’s Vertical Cat delivers a sunrise appropriate dubby and subtly ravey take on the tune. All three deliver something unique for various slots of a party.

@Kondaktor compiles music from the Interwar Years (1922-1940), a tumultuous time of political divide between monarchists and supporters of democracy, where Greece saw the influx of refugees from Asia Minor in 1922, went through the economic Crash of 1929, the return of monarchy and the Metaxas dictatorship. The mix creates a vivid portrait of this period and invites connections with the Athens of now, in a present filled with its own kind of uncertainty and economic stress.

Strings Of Fear is a glance into a damaged, yet ubiquitous beauty fetishism, when succumbing to the collective consciousness means walking a thin line between vanity, sanity and self-loathing. The four-tracker ties into a journey through fear, confusion, anger, desire and loathing, all fitted into one shot of adrenaline in a form of an EP.
