Choose Love 2019: Fred P

Electronic Love Collective - part 4

As a proud project of DGTL Records, the ‘Various Artists’ series originated with the idea of merging local talents with friends of the DGTL family. Continuing along these lines, the latest EP is a stellar extension of its 2020 predecessor. ‘Various Artists - Volume Two Remixes’ features 4 unique remixes by electronic music heavyweights. Expect a contemporary reimagining of familiar tracks by frontrunners Sandunes, Lauer, Fort Romeau and Tom Trago. Both Lauer and Fort Romeau have featured on previous releases, marking their return to the label.

Staying true to her skillful play on emotive soundscapes, Mumbai-based Sandunes (@sandunes) sets the tone. After making her DGTL debut at DGTL Bengaluru 2020, her spin on Lovshai’s (@lovshai) ‘Solo’ re-invents the cosmic-heavy house tune into one with progressive electronic elements and synth-heavy harmonies. Bringing us his remix of Vermelho Wonder's (@vermelhowonder) ‘Espetáculos Extraordinários’ is German DJ/Producer Lauer (@lauerofficial). Interweaving deep house grooves with an 80's-inspired disco sound, it’s an exciting play on the edgy counterpart.

Following suit, UK-based DJ/producer Fort Romeau (@fortromeau), takes his seat at the table. Recognised for his eclectic mix of house and techno, his remix of Pin Up Club’s (@pin-up-club) ‘Sanguine’ is an ambient re-telling of the original - with a touch of melodic influences. Widely recognised as one of the leading lights of the Dutch electronic music landscape, Tom Trago (@tomtrago) brings his frictionless sound and underground ear to FM Live’s ‘Tal Como Soy’. It’s a different spin to the dance heavy original, falling in line with the Dutchman’s groovy MPC- heavy sound.

Artwork is delivered by Tasso Okinawa, as part of the ongoing series he curates for DGTL Records.

DGTL010: Various Artists - Volume Two
Pre-order/pre-save: dgtl.lnk.to/VariousArtistsVolumeTwo
Release date: 17/04/2020

DGTL Records proudly serves up Volume Two of its Various Artists compilation series this spring. 

The music is all coming from local artists of all the cities they have DGTL in, and they wanted to showcase this exciting talent and give them an extra podium with this VA. To that end, Perdu, Colyn, Magit Cacoon, FM Live, Yotam Avni and more all appear on this superb 12 track collection. 

Lovshai kicks off with the boogie bass and cosmic, future facing deep techno of Solo before FM serves up some smooth, seductive Detroit house that ripples with lush late-night energy. Dutchman Perdu offers The Light Within, which is an 80s tinged house track with old school chords and future-retro keys, Sanguine from Pin Up Club is a sleazier synth house affair with angular riffs, and Jenia Tarsol & Fortis's Baolam is a sweet cosmic prog adventure.

Brazil's Vermelho Wonder then offers the edgy astral techno journey that is Espetáculos Extraordinários and Colyn gets masterfully melodic on a series of skyward arps that lift you to the heavens. Elsewhere there is edgy grooves from Magic Cacoon, deep disco house from Sjamsoedin and floating techno from Yotam Avni that gets you in a trance. Davis's slick sci-fi electro track Vestido De Espaço and the tunnelling and hypotonic techno of PØLI & Lorenzo Raganzini's Velo closes things down in real style. 

Once again this is a fine window into the unique musical world of this essential Dutch crew.
