Mille & Hirsch - Get Deep (PEOPLE THAT MAKE THE MUSIC)

SONG002 A1: Benoit & Sergio - Full Grown Man

the second release on thesongsays seems to find what we might call "romantic techno" in a happier place. sort of. while bruno pronsato's 'the make up the break up' focused on the darker side of romance, benoit &amp; sergio's 'what i've lost' raises a similar question: can we ever be really satisfied?

benoit &amp; sergio chose 'full grown man,' as the opener. the bravado of the initial vocals--'i need a lady to understand i'm a full grown man'--references the masculine posturing of, say, led zeppelin's "whole lotta love," but also calls attention to the vulnerability and neediness of this masculinity. and when we are seduced into drinking a little wine at the track's midpoint, we realize that this seduction is a mere maneuver to avoid a deeper loneliness. if, lyrically, 'full grown man' points to certain emotional complexities, so, too, does the music: somber synth lines overlay short, brassy stabs, as the intricate sequencing shifts its moods like so many teenage boys.

SONG002: Benoit & Sergio - Full Grown Man

With the smell of the sea still fresh in one's mind, and thoughts of those times when all was sublime 
From sun soaked shores to revolving doors, of disco clubs and records stores. 
Nostalgic grooves that spark from the dark, that chills up the spine then fills up the heart. 
A voice that laments a yearning for love, on music that twists yet fits like a glove.
A call for passion, a red light in the room, for soon, the clock strikes midnight in Tulum.

Navid Izadi & C. Love - Midnight In Tulum (Free Download)

Homebreakin Records proudly serve up a hot new single from Vancouver-based DJ and producer Neighbour, featuring the vocals of Piper Davis, and bolstered by a selection of top remixes from 6th Borough Project, Cyclist, Tad Wily and Enno Karr.
Homebreakin Records and Punchout label co-boss Neighbour is known for his disco, deep house and analog flavours and is a prolific talent who really knows how to nail a groove. Here he enlists the local vocal services of Pampa star Piper Davis.
Their single ‘Light Breaker’ is a slo motion disco-house chugger with steppy, arpeggiated synths driving it along. The louche drums are as lazy as the rippling melodies that light up the track, and oodles of sensuousness comes from the dreamy, icy vocals of Piper Davis. It’s a starry, expansive feeling track that will send hands in the air and as well as making you dance will have you singing along in no time.
First to remix - and he does so twice - is famed disco dons 6th Borough Project aka Craig Smith & Graeme Clark (The Revenge) who have worked together in the studio for almost a decade and very much define the output of labels like Instruments Of Rapture, Domino Records and Delusions Of Grandeur. Their first remix is a squelchy, go slow bit of organic funk with grinding drums and swathes of lovely reverb. Their second, which features as a digital exclusive, is a slightly flabbier, more melodic version littered with little keys and percussive effects that makes it all the more magical.
Next comes Mark Penner aka Cyclist, who has remixed and collaborated with some of modern disco’s greatest names. His version is full on cosmic, with celestial explosions of melody and big, slow, fat synth lines all dancing above churning, purposefully deep and groovy drums.
Then Polish born, London based producer Tad Wily (Matt Kuderski) steps up following fine work on Gomma and Retrofit. His version is a darker, more insular affair that does clever things with the original vocal and packages it into more of a post punk, new wave groove with twanging guitars and rooted drums at the heart.
Lastly, South African born artist Enno Karr is a musician, composer and DJ residing in Calgary. His remix was the winner in a recent competition carried out by the label in association with Ableton Beat Camp and features here as anotehr digital exclusive in the package. Karr’s version is the most blissed up and chilled out, with soothing vocal intonations, cute melody stabs and a breezy pop-dance vibe that really strikes at your most sensitive emotions.
This is a fulsome packaged stuff with all sorts of disco bombs that cannot fail to find their way into your affections.

Renowned German producer (and Kompakt lynchpin) Michael Mayer builds a propulsive, tropical-flavoured anthem around Mockasin’s unusual vocals, with delightfully unpredictable results.

You can see Connan Mockasin in glorious live action this autumn, when he and his band embark on their own headline tour of the UK, playing dates across the country at the end of September. Having already toured with Warpaint in the summer, as well as scoring the first short film from acclaimed video director Kinga Burza, and collaborating with the idiosyncratic likes of Charlotte Gainsbourg and Sam Eastgate of Late of the Pier, it is certain that the eccentric pleasures of Connan Mockasin aren’t going to stay a cult secret for too much longer.

Quixote feat. Lisa Li Lund - Before I Started To Dance (Prins Thomas Diskomiks) - Versatile Rec

Navid Izadi is a young man who possesses wisdom and natural flair beyond his years. The funk is embedded in this performer’s DNA; he commands the stage with charisma, contagious energy and overwhelming presence, channelling the spirits of his idols while presenting a contemporary take on forms of music that speak to your very soul. We’re talking true funk, soul, disco, hip-hop, music from the heart, from the streets, from real people with real emotions – intertwined with the analogue power of synthesizers and modern-day software, which take the sound into the future… 

As a member of the Crew Love entourage, this former San Francisco club kid has flourished, taking full charge of his dynamic live show and presenting it to audiences all over the world, from Tokyo to Colombia, to London, San Francisco, Milan, Montreal, and everywhere in between. His touring has been extensive to say the least, and each experience has fed back into both his live set - which improves and evolves with every new performance - and his studio experimentations. Together with this, the visual aspect of his performances is also crucial to Navid’s output; exotic headdresses, flamboyant outfits, crowd interaction, rigorous dance moves, infectious energy and rousing vocals delivered in tandem with the dopest rhythms. 

Rolling as a DJ, singer, rapper, and producer of music that effortlessly weaves between influences, you’re never quite sure what to expect from Navid. Aside from collaborations with the likes of Psychemagik, Deniz Kurtel, Soul Clap and PillowTalk, Navid has also handled remix duties for artists like Miguel Migs, Midnight Magic, Pezzner, No Regular Play, Wolf + Lamb and more. Last year also saw the artist pick up the coveted Essential New Tune award on Pete Tong’s Radio 1 show, when Heidi selected ‘Feelin' Purple (Soul Clap Remix)’ as her choice during a cover show. 

The future holds much more in store with more EPs lined up for the Crew Love family of labels (W+L, Soul Clap Records, W+L Black, and Double Standard) as well as a full-length album that will see the young Renaissance man stretching his musical legs far and wide. If you think you’ve heard it all, think again, Navid’s musical locker is brimming with influences and inspirations – from the psychedelic funk of the great George Clinton, through to rugged rap legends like Rakim. The album promises to be a compendium of everything that makes Navid what he is and more, as he retraces the steps he’s taken to reach the point he’s at now while keeping a firm focus on where he’s headed. Expanding beyond genres, his opus will be closely aligned with the unifying element between all of his influences; black music with soul, which permeates into so many different styles of music today. 

In the meantime expect an eclectic slew of new music flowing out of the Izadi laboratory; a collaborative EP with Deniz Kurtel, contributions to the Crew Love compilation, some undercover hip-hop productions, Turkish funk edits, a dark wave-inspired soundtrack LP, P-funk and much more. There’s no stopping this whirlwind of creativity now he’s started.

With just the right balance of confidence, determination, skill, musical knowledge and intellect Navid, is carving out his own niche and an artist who will leave you with indelible memories of each scintillating performance…
