Damn how I love this somewhat cutting edge and ‘out of control’ bassline.. 🔊

Back with the leading cut from his brilliant POT POURRI EP, !Sooks presents us with a luscious remix package.

Imagine features the very well-known tones of LAZARUSMAN and the way his vocal fits into these 3 new renditions is just perfect.

First up, SECRET SOULS load up a brilliant minimal affair with very high production standards; depth of sound is key here, which keeps your mind locked as the song rolls forward. MALIK FAQUIR is next up with his intense rework, almost industrial in build and delivering a stompingly dangerous force. ATJAZZ Completes the project with a retro-esq sound, layering modular synths with his usual melodic blips and buzzes, creating an uplifting spacey vibe throughout.

DHSA Premiere: !Sooks - Imagine feat. Lazarusman (Malik Faquir Remix) [Atjazz Record Company]

South African resident Málik Faquir joins Moodfamily with a unique sounding 4 track EP. His first single titled “Profound” narrates his experiences with early playful love. The same playfulness is fused masterfully with sharp sound design and efficient dub techno forming a sparse yet powerful dance floor theme. A masterclass in less is more.

Profound

Malik Faquir - Profound (Feat. ZoDot.)

Water can be the most fun to play in or a burden to keep your head above.
You could get lost on the open sea or be let by a river.
There are calm and troubled times.
It connects and devides.
No matter what, water is life.
And can be a threat to it.

Once again we are happy to release a long awaited collaboration from two of our dearest musicians. The fusion of @judith-ahrends  unique tiptoe groove and dreamlike vocals with @oilst deep vibes gave us chills from the first drafts. Two synthie wizards in unity.
The remix duties were distributed to amazing @dangerrrave, @deisenmusic, @malikfaquir, @ohxala and @isaacsoto.

This EP is a perfect example how music knows no limits as it connects musicians from Mexico, Portugal, Mozambique, North America, Switzerland and Germany.

Judith Ahrends & Oilst - Water (Malik Faquir Remix)

Malik Faquir circles back to Moodfamily for another round. His “Nonchalantly” EP offers five more delicately crafted grooves, pushing and pulling away at your eardrums. No instant satisfaction, just pure - stripped back - power. 
His unnerving yet efficient rhythms and whacked out synthesizer leads tear through speakers like a hot knife through butter. What comes is bumpy, relentless and unapologetic. It’s quite a spectacle to be on Malik Faquir’s rollercoaster. We raise the glass to this cheeky master in wonky strangeness and bending deep grooves.

KXL - The Garden Feat. Mac Rendal (Malik Faquir Remix)

Trumpet On The Beach

Releasing music hasn’t been the most active component in the past months, yet the pause resultant from that has brought with it a worthwhile period of crafting, reshaping.

An unmistakable shift has occurred in the mind of this musician. Nervous excitement hovers, only later to be broken down by waves that steer their course through a new-born understanding of design and theory. Ceaseless conversions between worlds of electronic serenity, minimalistic rebellion, and hypnotic techno-curves that spiral through the air. 

“I feel like I am now pushing my music production beyond what I thought were my limits. Been experimenting more with synth modulation, more pitch changes, more colour and brightness, more vocals, and more upbeat rhythms.”

Malik Faquir - Serena

Finding ground in Ghent, a small yet creative and lively town in Belgium, Moodfamily runs a record label and booking agency. Having emerged in 2014, it has sprouted from existing friendships and a mutual understanding and appreciation of electronic music. We represent artists pursuing their own unique sound, be it within their own tracks, visual productions or DJ-sets. 

Most important, the Moodfamily is telling you their story. The fruits of a long and devoted journey. We aim to reach people with our dedication to evoke a certain feeling. A particular mood.
