INCOMING : Cannibal Coconuts & Calystarr - Nepal (Moo Moonster Remix) #Melomana

Release date : 2024-10-18
Buy : https://melomanarecords.bandcamp.com/

For this 43rd release, we present the collaboration of two influential artists in the national scene. On one side, we have Calystarr, known for his releases on Nein Records and Espacio Cielo; on the other, Cannibal Coconuts, also veteran of the Espacio Cielo family. This combination results in the NEPAL EP, where deep atmospheres merge with dark disco and synthwave elements, producing two original tracks that will undoubtedly make an impact on any dance floor. Both tracks stand out for their hypnotic energy, immersive synth lines, and dark rhythms that maintain a constant tension.
The title track, "Nepal," starts with a funk-infused bassline, which gradually intertwines with hypnotic melodies and acid and cosmic arpeggios, creating an enveloping soundscape. The second track, "Synths from the Moon" delves into darker territories, featuring arpeggiated lines paired with long, sustained string chords that uphold tension throughout the entire composition.
Regarding the remixes, we have two of the key figures from Espacio Cielo: Moo Monster and Parissior. Moo Monster retains the original track "Nepal's" tension but introduces a more disco-oriented bass, compacting the track from the outset and enhancing its astral journey. Parissior, on the other hand, delivers a remix clearly aimed at the dance floor of “Synths of the Moon”, incorporating a techno-leaning bassline and leveraging the acid elements to create a final track worthy of the best dancefloors.

INCOMING : Cannibal Coconuts & Calystarr - Nepal (Moo Moonster Remix) #Melomana

In 2021, Italoconnection, the partnership of Fred Ventura and Paolo Gozetti, released Midnight Confessions Vol 1. Three years on, the awaited second volume has arrived. All of the analogue emotion that characterised the first collection is present from the outset, warm throbs of bass coupled with clean melodies in “The Wait”. Smoky lyrics permeate the nine track album, the unmistakable timbre of Ventura’s voice recanting tales of optimistic encounters and lost love. As with the 2021 release, collaborations with fellow italo romantics are peppered throughout. Francesca Gastaldi returns to work with Italoconnection once again. Having featured on their Humanize EP, Gastaldi’s vibrant voice shines through the smouldering synthlines and robust beats of “Live Forever”. Jaia Sowden takes centre stage for “Just Like Water”. A story of discontent and disconnect is sang over bittersweet keys as eastern undercurrents flow. Contemporary commentary is intertwined with undulating melodies and distant lyrics in “Cold War Lovers”, a cold wave edge cutting through the sounds and words of “Systematic”. The dancefloor surfaces throughout the record. Bodies are pulled tight by the bold and bright bars of “Why” before drifting apart in the lovelorn lamentations of “Lover 2 Lover”. “Europa” pays homage to the machine music of the continent as a litany of influences are drawn upon . The title piece closes. A fragile drum pattern is bolstered by cascading chords, piano notes sailing alongside words by Gastaldi and Ventura. Welcome confessions from musicians who live and breath the synthesizer traditions of Italy.

FEINSTOFF PREMIERE: Italoconnection - Europa [BORDELLO A PARIGI]

Belgian Duo Marching Machines joins Roam Recordings with a delightful EP of thoughtful electronic music that, while it can be filed under indie dance/dark disco, has a sound of its own. 

The title track Alfheim is an anthem born of machines that does the duo’s namesake proud. Heimdal takes the mood into a darker realm with its masterful synth worth over perfectly programmed drum machines. Midgaard keeps it dark with its driving arpeggios underpinning lush pads.

The EP is backed by remixes from Younger Than Me and Mufti. Younger Than Me is up first with an uptempo rave version that brings psychedelic acid to the party. Roam alumni Mufti brings the tempo back down into a groove with a warbly bass, leading to a refreshing melody that rounds out the EP.

INCOMING : Austher - Don't Look Back (Chinaski Remix) #MINITEL

Release date : 2024-10-25
BUY : https://go.protonradio.com/r/rlBCTAp0CWczo

After spending the summer traveling across France in our Renault Fuego convertible, we're back at the top of our game for our third EP.

We're delighted to hand over the keys to Austher, a rising star on the French and international indie scene, for a beautiful ballad with his banger "Don't look back": a killer bass line, a summery melody and a groove between EBM, indie and trance.

In the backseat, Chinaski delivers a remix with a first part full of tension and progression, a classy Daft Punk-style break and a vibrant arpeggio in the final curve.

The mirror's shattered... Don't Look Back.

Merci Aurélien
Danke Stefan

INCOMING : Max Buchalik - Midnight Passion (Fabrizio Mammarella Remix) #Melodize

Release date : 2024-11-01
Buy : https://melodizemusic.bandcamp.com/album/higher-state-ep

Frankfurt's Max Buchalik is in the early phases of his production career but has many years of experience throwing parties in his hometown, where he is a pioneering force. With his deep understanding of dancefloor dynamics, he now pairs his love of the 80s with rich sound designs on his debut release for Brooklyn-based imprint Melodize.

Opener 'Higher State' is a bright house cut awash with sugary, pixelated chords and twinkling pads. Its retro-future charms and colourful, uplifting arps all serve to get hands in the air and heads amongst the stars. Remixer Venice Arms is an alias of accomplished dark disco don Curses, who has long been a fixture in the Berlin underground. His take on 'Higher State' is a snappy proto-house cut with 80s synth work and natty chords that are busy and full of fun.

The second original 'Midnight Passion' is another vibrant track with throwback synth progressions and retro textures. The melodies shine bright as they rain down over snappy drums and melancholic leads packed with exciting emotions. Remixing this one is Italian DJ, producer and label owner Fabrizio Mammarella, who has a fine discography that takes in releases on DFA, Permanent Vacation and Correspondant, as well as his own Slow Motion Music, Wrong Era Records and Emet. His lively disco-house version is lit up with shiny chords, chattery percussive patterns, woodpecker-like hits, and sustained chords that will dazzle the dance floor.

PREMIERE - SEIUN - Gate 62 (Louis de Tomaso remix) (Nein Records)

Yomi One (a.k.a. Mikael Nybom) has been quietly moving the gears behind Sweden's dance music scene since 2007, but now he's stepping out from the shadows to set the record straight. Hailing from Stockholm with a decade-plus résumé of working with some of dance music's finest (even if you didn't know it), Yomi One is here to remind you that acid never dies and neither does a good rave.

Inspired by the heady days of the late '80s and early '90s, when acid house ruled, techno was still underground, and raves were all about warehouses and sweat, Yomi One's sound pays homage to the raw energy of Chicago, Detroit, and London. Armed with a TB-303, TR-808, and a few more pieces of gear that sound like cheat codes for electronic music, Yomi One is on a mission to bring that authentic acid and techno grit straight to your speakers.

With his upcoming release on 'When Disco Goes Wrong,' Yomi One is here to inject some much-needed mischief into the scene. Nostalgic? Maybe. Forward-thinking? Definitely. Ready to make you sweat? Without a doubt. If you're not already on board, now's the time to tune in - because When disco goes wrong, you know it's about to go completely bonkers.
