About:
Argentine-born, Barcelona-based producer Martin Cozar returns to Kiosk ID with his four-tracker ‘My Mind.’ Building on the funky modernism of Resilience—his split EP with Gespona—and a commanding peak-time remix for Manucho’s Idea Reset, Martin Cozar now steps fully into the spotlight with a solo EP that tightens his artistic identity. My Mind delivers razor-sharp groove work, stripped futurism, and a captivating brand of dancefloor energy that shines through inventiveness and viscerality.

Opening track ‘1977’ unfolds like a widescreen dreamscape, with suspended fields of synths arcing over a warmly booming, long-tailed sub-bass. Heaving synth sweeps, melodically intricate arpeggios, and fluttering square waves paint a morphing, hypnotic canvas that floats across the periphery. Deeply meditative, but suited for the almost-peak-time with a throbbing groove and dynamic sub-bass, 1977 is a slow-burning journey that wraps warmly arcing, spaced out melodics around a tight rhythmic core.

‘My Mind’ turns the focus to the floor. Funky and razor-sharp in its sophisticated modernity with stripped-to-the-bone drum structures, the title track channels Martin Cozar’s retro-futurist edge through ominously
squelching basslines and pulsing stabs, arranged in a spacious, expertly crafted, and darkly oscillating Indie Dance framework. Every element clicks into place, yielding a high-voltage groove that radiates raw, physical
energy: stripped-down machine funk with a dark, circuit-bent twist.

With ‘Niksen,’ Martin Cozar crafts an eclectic groover that cycles effortlessly through percussive moods. Crackling with icy atmospherics one moment and sweltering in hazy Western guitars the next, Niksen traverses shifting textures anchored in a stripped lead theme that transforms the tracks’ dynamic soundscapes into pure dancefloor class.

Closing cut ‘Lights Out’ dives into grungier, more tactile territory. Shuffling, blown-out acoustic drums and mangled guitars collide with a peevish lead synth that escalates through morphing iterations, finally exploding into bursts of erupting electricity. Raw and groove-heavy, Lights Out channels untethered energy into a gritty, kinetic framework—tech’n’roll with a beautifully organic feel.

Across ‘My Mind,’ Martin Cozar delivers four distinct tracks—each a self-contained microcosm of motion across gritty floor energy, razor-sharp Indie Dance, and booming after-hour rollers. The result is a hypnotic,
meticulously engineered suite that feels both instinctive and deliberate, and succeeds in walking the fine line between the physical and cerebral demands of the dancefloor.

Riding in with the power to deliver sunshine to world’s rainiest open-air events, Monkey Safari brings rays of light to whatever dance floors they cast their shimmering spell on. 

The past few years saw the brothers swinging to new trees, retiring their previous labels to focus on their new label 'Hommage.' It were the years of transformation for the German producers, developing and tailoring a sound suited perfectly for the unique club nuances while still keeping the core elements of melodic chords and grooves synonymous with the duos productions. 

During this time, Monkey Safari unveiled their remix for Marc Houle’s “Pepper” on Richie Hawtin’s label Minus and their hugely successful “Cranes” and “Walls“ EPs that presented opportunities for Monkey Safari to work with some exciting musicians, such as Wolf + Lamb and Kölsch, techno heavy weights Guy Gerber and Josh Wink, as well as one of dance music’s most iconic producers, Moby. 

Monkey Safari remixed a track for Moby & The Void Pacific Choir, returning the favor after Moby’s successful rework of the duo’s track “Walls” last year. Their next releases continued in the same fashion, featuring remixes from Paco Osuna, Chloé, John Digweed & Nick Muir, UNER, Guy Mantzur, Victor Ruiz and more, while signing tracks from amazing Blond:ish, legendary John Tajada, and others on their Hommage imprint. 

The duo’s efforts in the studio have transcended to their DJ sets with stand out shows at Time Warp and Awakenings Festival. On top of a heavy touring schedule at world renowned clubs and headlining slots at festivals, the duo released their album ‘Odyssey’. Monkey Safari produced the same kind of tracks for this album they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. 

In 2018 Monkey Safari carefully handpicked remixers they saw as most capable of continuing their vision for the album. The ‘Odyssey Remixes’ featured reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, Carl Cox, international stars Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Musumeci, Tensnake and Reboot, studio geniuses Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, and Phil Moffa, as well as up-and-coming talent Avidus and Trivmph . 

Monkey Safari’s third album comes in perfect time for the summer sunshine of 2019. The duo follow up their last album, ‘Odyssey’, with this warm, inviting collection of music designed to brighten your day and complement the glorious sunny days that bless us during the summer. Sven and Lars learned some valuable lessons from their last long-player, and the new album ‘HI’ comes from a far more relaxed, easy-going place. An organic project that came together quite naturally, their third album sees the duo in high spirits ready to bring a large dose of positive vibes and emotional depth to the party. 

2020 and 2021 sees Monkey Safari moving closer to legendary brands Get Physical and Anjuna Deep, starting with a remix and a multitude of EPs on the labels. Watch out for more news soon! 

The German outfit has been on an incredible run of form with promising developments in all of their endeavors and exciting news still to come. Be it a fresh remix or EP drop, DJ set or party, Monkey Safari will be sure to touch all scopes of dance culture with no signs of deceleration on the horizon. 
Their mandate remains the same, sending sunny vibes to make even the darkest dance floors smile.

Kuriose Naturale's Upcoming Gigs
Sun 19 Jul, 20 
Melt Festival, Gräfenhainichen, Germany

Altbewährt und trotzdem irgendwie neu. Nein, als Newcomer würde man das Berliner Duo Kuriose Naturale nicht bezeichnen. Seit Mitte der neunziger Jahre sind die beiden als Deph und TanaThan unabhängig voneinander unterwegs um sich  zehn Jahre später im Jahr 2006 zu Kuriose Naturale zu vereinen. Auch wenn die Kollaboration eher zufällig bei einem Ping Pong Set auf dem Soundtropolis Festival entstand, waren sie sich schnell über eine gemeinsame Zukunft einig. Und so fand man seine Residenz in der Berliner Ritter Butzke, von wo aus sie seither in die Clubs und auf die Festivals der Republik starten. Nach diversen Gigs im deutschsprachigen Raum und im osteuropäischen Ausland durften sie dieses Jahr das ersten mal den südamerikanischen Kontinent beehren. Musikalisch lassen sich die beiden nichts unterstellen, denn sobald man sie in eine Schublade steckt beweisen sie gerne mal das Gegenteil. Gibt man ihnen die Zeit, so spielen sie auch zehn Stunden am Stück und bei solch ausschweifenden Sets musste schon der Strom gezogen werden um der Sache ein Ende zu setzen. Zitat: „Techno hat mit kurz nichts zu tun und für Musik braucht man Geduld, dass ist eine Tugend die leider vielen fehlt.“ 

„Und gab es keinen Stromausfall, so spielen sie noch heute“
