Here's a little info on Digitaria:
Daniela Caldellas and Daniel Albinati are the names behind Digitaria. They come from Brazil and started playing together in 2004, making dance music experiments with a big range of influences, creating beautiful and unusual tunes. The philosophy behind their music never changed with the years — electronic music should have no boundaries, creativity and feelings are the only things that matter.

German duo Avidus bring their spellbinding style to Crosstown this March. The pair have conceived a four track EP that serves to showcase their unique sound.

Avidus ​have produced a mesmerising EP that submerges the listener in an intriguing sonic soundscape. Speaking of the creative process, they ​explain that “​the first sketches of ​‘XII’ and ‘Psalm 23’ were made in 2015/2016 during the process of producing tracks for our first live sets. The focus was on powerful elements that have an emotional impact on whoever was listening”. ​On title track ​XII prominent drums arise alongside dramatic strings that create a track full of suspense. ​Psalm 23 ​opens with an ethereal vocal sample that bleeds into a high-octane beat that’s pacing and intense. On the flip, “​more recent tracks ‘Lux’ and the new edit of ‘Revenge of the Whales’ balance the EP out very nicely on an emotional level”. Lux i​ s a dreamy and emotive number, calmer than its predecessors with a breathtaking breakdown, whilst ​last year’s ​Revenge Of The Whales ​gets a rework for Crosstown. Avidus conclude; “​we’re proud to share this release”.

Hailing from Kiel in North Germany Fritz Wagner and Marc Wolf, aka ​Avidus​, ​have forged a strong partnership over the years. Fritz began producing music in the late 90s, making Hip Hop beats and pop music before moving on to house. During his early years, Marc produced backing tracks for hardcore bands before DJ’ing at illegal, outdoor raves. He started his own night ENDVR at Kiel’s Luna Club, where he invited guest such as Âme, Roman Flügel, Barnt and Marcus Worgull. Their diverse musical tastes and influences are apparent in their music, which refuses to be confined to any one genre. The duo launched their own imprint Empore Music in 2014 that has charted releases from Johannes Albert amongst others.

While  ‘Venere’ showcases an ongoing development in BOg’s productions, it is fair to say Fideles exceeded all expectations, delivering an exhilarating piece of work that amplifies the core melodic elements of the original mix.

BOg, the uniquely creative, multi-tasking, Paris-based, Romanian DJ, Producer, Label Owner and Artist, makes his long-awaited return to Bedrock with the dynamic Corso EP. This outstanding new package is further enhanced with a superlative remix interpretation courtesy of John Digweed & Nick Muir.

BOgs unique musical vision sidesteps fleeing trends and musical fashions, remaining focused on human emotions: sensations, feelings and imagination. This, along with an urgency to constantly push the boundaries of creativity, has seen him steadily build and continually expand his own loyal, global audience. The love for BOgs previous Bedrock releases, along with those on his own ATLANT label and the likes of Visceral, Watergate, Hoito, Plattenbank, Diynamic and Innervisions, have cemented his reputation as an exceptional, ground-breaking artist of immense talent and depth.

With its impeccably infectious, hypnotic looped melody line, riding on a perfectly matched bouncing percussive groove, the title track Corso soars, swoops and dives in a magnificent and masterfully simple yet complex arrangement. BOg then adds an imaginative smattering of squelch and hi-hat hiss to proceedings, to create another delicious recipe for Juno 99, as his second original track builds on a similar, joyously melodic blueprint, whilst exploring a deeper, more linear furrow.

From its unmistakeable opening heavyweight power kick, an immaculately produced, dynamic, bass-heavy intro announces the arrival of John Digweed & Nick Muir on Corso Remix duty. Respectfully expanding on the key melodic beauty of the original, whilst injecting their boundless energy into the narrative, is a well-worn trademark of the acclaimed duo. Sneaking a cheeky, smile-inducing, euphoric slow-down into the arrangement is, quite simply, a moment of unique, collective genius.

For the remix we called on Colyn, fresh from his ‘Concepts Of Love’ EP for RÜFÜS DU SOL’s Rose Avenue plus tracks on the mighty Afterlife UNITY and DGTL’s latest VA. Colyn gives a remixing masterclass, using Ed’s melancholic vocal as the foundation to craft layer upon layer of heart wrenching melodies as the pure emotion of ’Complacency’ digs deep into your soul.

I is for Introspection: Part 1 in a series of 9 weekly releases that make up Audiojack's Isolation Tapes. 

'The Isolation Tapes came together accidentally during lockdown. Getting lost in the music-making process was our way to escape the feelings of anxiety and uncertainty which presented themselves with the emergence of Covid. We had no plan beyond escapism, but a cleared schedule gave us lots of time to explore new ideas. After we'd made a few tracks we started to realize the importance of bringing this music together under one project, a musical reference point for this strange period in time, and so the Isolation Tapes was born - a series of singles we made during lockdown whose titles all begin with a different letter from the word: I S O L A T I O N.' -  Audiojack

Available on vinyl and digitally at over 100 stores, including…
