Minimal House

Cristi Cons - Anatrack (MEANDER 14)

Roche Madame, a natural harbour for a crop of artists for whom sounds, histories and futures dance together. A vinyl only imprint, whose ascetic designs reflect the inspiringly sparse landscape of its spiritual home. Fronted by Cesar Merveille, the imprint readies its third outing since its 2016 inception.

RM003, a collaborative effort between Sam O’Somen of Masomenos and label boss Cesar Merveille under his C.S.R alias, was born out of a modular jam direct from Merveille’s Berlin-based studio, resulting in two expansive tracks notably performed via masterful machine improvisation. 

The record’s A side ‘Le Myth Errand’ takes a direct approach with heavy hitting drums and a tumbling fluidity that works perfectly in any club context. Hypnotic pads run side by side with intricate sequencing patterns, eventually making way for a characteristically 80’s synth-line, rich in analog saturations, alongside mangled crowd-chants and spoken French samples that warp in and out of focus. 

‘Amare Basse’ takes the flip; a track progressive in nature with delicate textures ever-evolving around serene chord stabs and a rhythmically propulsive bassline. Skipping hats enter the fray alongside clinically placed drum-hits, further establishing the song’s rolling groove.

C.S.R & Sam O'Somen - Le Myth Errand

​Romanian duo Livio & Roby supply their standout track ‘Tidal Reshape’ to Vakant’s ‘Tenacity’ compilation.

Showcasing the somewhat minimal, yet driving sound that’s been coming strong out of their native country’s underground scene, Livio & Roby fire off a mesmerizing display of rhythm and sophistication.

Purchase here: https://vakant.bandcamp.com/album/tenacity-2017

Ahead of the compilation’s release, Livio & Roby touched on what inspires them in the studio: “We find influence and inspiration in many forms, sometimes it can be the consequence of a freshly read book, a new movie or classical/jazz concert, new experiences, our friends and family also inspire us in many ways… One time we moved our studio gear to a mountainside in Romania and we started to create. We find sometimes it's necessary to move from your main space to have some fresh air and ideas. That's how we made ‘Tidal Reshape’”.

Composed of ten tracks, the ‘Tenacity’ compilation also features music from Alex Smoke, Sons Of Tiki, Anonym, Tolga Fidan, Nico Purman and Non-Operational People.

The ‘Tenacity’​ compilation is released on April 3.

Maybe it’s a sign of the musical times, or a shift in some artist’s creative ideology, but, interestingly, it seems that the strength of the numerous collaborative studio partnerships out there seem to be growing and growing. So, as yet another exceptional year of electronic music draws to a close, it seems fitting that the combined talents of Sahar Z & Stelios Vassiloudis should be joined together in a finale release for Bedrock Records in 2017.

Athenian DJ/Producer Stelios Vassiloudis is a Bedrock regular whose diverse musical palette always sees him create enthralling, highly memorable tracks. Having recently returned to the studio after an extended musical hiatus, his solo releases throughout 2017 have been exceptional, further establishing him as one of the scene’s finest melodic masters. In addition, his recent tag team with Germany’s Nils Nuernberg saw them create an exceptional EP on Steve Bug’s Poker Flat label, as well as a highlight track on the recent ‘Bedrock - Frequencies’ album.

Sahar Z has been at the heart of Tel Aviv's electronic music culture for the past 20 years. A masterful DJ and influential proponent of the art of music programming, where each and every show is an unforgettable journey, Sahar’s pedigree as a collaborative kingpin has been previously established through his excellent projects with Guy Mantzur, Navar (both on Lost & Found) and Chicola (Microcastle). So, its no wonder that his new project with Stelios marks this duo as a creative force to be reckoned with.
The richly imaginative ‘Nagasaki’ mischievously builds anticipation in clever, intricately arranged steps, as its low-slung, rhythmically infectious groove evolves with the addition of perfectly positioned melodic motifs throughout. In contrast, crisp, crunchy beats form the basis of ‘Osaka’ as it grows into a more energetic percussive workout. Layers of atmospheric excellence and teasing synth stabs give the track an emotive edge, with a swirling, deeply delicious energy. In their own distinctly different ways, both tracks form an irresistible masterclass in subtle genius.

Having been mutual admirers of each other’s work over the last few years, Sahar and Stelios finally established creative contact in 2017 when Stelios released his ‘Amnesia/Saturday Sky’ EP on the fledgling Armadillo Records (which Sahar co-runs with Guy J).

“I think it’s quite common for modern DJ/Producers to get stuck in the proverbial rut and seek out collaborative experiences with other artists that can enhance or invigorate their production process and that was exactly what happened in this case.” – Stelios Vassiloudis

Evolving from a starting point where Sahar shared two unfinished tracks that he (correctly) thought Stelios would be really into and able to add his unique touch the creative process. They ended up stripping things back and exchanging ideas back-and-forth over the course of a 3-month period, resulting in the masterful ‘Nagasaki’ and ‘Osaka’.

“When we signed his amazing release to Armadillo, I decided to contact Stelios to share my feeling about his music and we took it from there. It was like we’d known each other for years and I wish we had more down-to-earth people like him in the industry.” – Sahar Z

This exciting new duo is currently working on more tracks and exploring the possibility of doing some touring together in the near future, so their collaboration might well transcend studio productions in 2018.

“We definitely have plenty more to come in the pipeline. We live relatively near to each other, share the same time zone and have similar taste in music. Plus, I’m really easy to get along with (haha), so you haven’t seen the last of us!” – Stelios Vassiloudis

Max Cooper Live - Loop Topologies [mix for Dour Festival] - Free Download

Romanian artists Livio & Roby are one of the most consistent DJ duos in minimal. As two-thirds of live act Premiesku, they are they are known as 'proper heads', who masterfully work tribal, twisted house music out of hardware for a living.

Thanks to the consistently high quality of their output, Livio & Roby have been in constant demand around the globe, sharing the spirit of Romania with the clientele of clubs and festivals across North and South America, Europe and further afield. Their endless travels continue, as does their endless work in the studio.

The Romanian duos latest EP is another 9-minute masterclass. Released on KUSI Records, Livio & Roby deliver two high-quality cuts. A-side 'Ta Katana' meanders and weaves into life. Dreamy soundscapes combine with hazy synths, making it perfect for the early morning after-hours. B-side 'Roslis' has much more of a main-room club feel to it, bubbly synths combine with a naughty grinding bassline.
