Alan backdrop is such an incredible producer

Munich based IO records is rounding out 2023 in style with their final release of the year, ‘Cold To The Touch’ by audiovisual artist, Anthony O, aka Tenzia. As the label writes, “Anthony O, is a professional artist and music producer with a background in traditional and digital art.The focal point of the Tenzia project is to overcome conventional thought patterns and genre boundaries. It explores the intersection of opposites, engaging with the interplay between the aesthetic and the grotesque, organic and inorganic, positive and negative, both visually and acoustically.”

Keeping in line with these themes, ‘Epiphany’ is a wonderfully unique entity. Defying any attempt to classify it, the track carries several different feelings depending on which voice or element your mind focuses on. Rolling percussion pings around, giving an almost dub or deep bass vibe, while the pads and flashing synths evoke dark, atonal techno moments. Combined, it’s like a mental breath of fresh air that breaks all molds.

Epiphany and the rest of Tenzia’s EP will be released into the world via IO on December 13th.

PREMIERE: Tenzia - Epiphany [IO]

For today’s premiere, we look to the Italians and precisely in the form of Marco Shuttle. He’s been releasing quite a few tracks via his own imprints, and this release marks his first under the MSP banner. One with a dance floor centered focus. 

Bella Di Giorno is a tribal mover that undulates and grows, the drums providing that all important foundation for the melody to weave through. One that is intentionally muted and restrained, adding an air of mystery and introspection to the track. These muted tones provide a delicate counterpoint to the robust tribal drums, creating a balance between the primal and the contemplative.

Bella Di Giorno and the rest of Marco Shuttle’s MSP01 release will be out on January 16th.

Minù Jr - October
Qabam EP [MCR02 / Monochrome Records]

Produced by Antoine Faure aka Minù Jr
Mastered by by Vincent Villuis at Ultimae Studios
Design & Illustration by Marco Maldarella
Released by Monochrome Records from Lyon, France
Release Date : January 31st. 2024
Format - CD and Digital

Minù Jr emerges as a multi-faceted project, in perpetual evolution, always looking for new influences.
His musical oeuvre stands apart with an hypnotic universe that adeptly techno pulsations with daring experiments, giving rise to an immersive ambiance during his performances.
Last year, following the release of two techno-oriented EPs, Minù Jr joined the roster of the Lyon collective/label Monochrome. This collaboration materialized through the unveiling of a composition entitled "Orcynia," where he tries out 170 pbm. The result was conclusive, the composition was valued by peers and has been played by various artists.
Currently, he persists in creating music towards a synthetic drum'n'bass, tinged with dub nuances, and delivers his latest EP, "Qabam."

Artist's words : "Qabam is a an ode to moments shared with family – fleeting instances that constitute precious times of our lives. In this safe space, only the desires of experiencing life collectively and make the most of the moment persist. It is the authenticity of these moments that inspired my composition. All the tracks have a particular aesthetic and artistic consistency inspired by people that surround me.
In a nutshell , these four musical pieces stand as a reverential tribute to the individuals surrounding me and the shared moments that define our collective existence."
