D-Nox and André Moret return with part two of their Sessions series.  Sessions represents the next phase for the multinational pairing.

Whether remixing each other or appearing on the same labels, D-Nox and André’s musical blueprint is finely tuned, as they continue to grow together artistically.

First up, the ‘80s-inspired ‘Shine’ applies its machine funk and glittery melodies. Tough drums and an offbeat bass provide a solid foundation for the main motif to explore the limits of uplifting analogue glory. Next, ‘Velvet’ gathers pace for a masterclass of progressive house. Sparse drums and a thunderous bass bedrock the melodies and sweeps of this mid-set bruiser. Finally, ‘Spiritual’ rounds out this impressive three-tracker with a deep progressive ride full of musicality and soul.

Toronto producer Brad Weber, a.k.a. Coy Haste releases his third EP, Apicultura: an instrumental interpretation of a San folk origin story from the Kalahari Desert.
The scene is set by blending modern electronica production with 70s inspired afro synth, traditional percussive elements, bubblegum inspired bass, dubbed-out marimbas and chopped up rural folk recordings.

The opening track, ‘Mantis,’ introduces the protagonist with a chugging rhythm, mesmerizing melodies and psyched out, layered tones.

Track two, ‘West Plains,’ represents the raging waters of the flooding river –– the source of the mantis’s plight, which manifests as energetic, cascading rhythms.

Followed by the track, ‘Honeybee’ tells the story of our hero: the bee who selflessly weathers the perilous water to rescue the mantis through a pulsing composition of hopeful percussion and cautioning synth melodies.

Closing the EP with ‘Desert Flower,’ the epic journey ends with the exhausted bee resting the mantis on a floating desert flower. Before it dies, the bee plants a seed in the mantis which grows to be the first human. With contemplative percussive pacing and a crescendo of evolving synths, this is the soundtrack to the metamorphosis.
