ONNO pairs up with Reelow for a pair of cavernous cuts with Solid Grooves founder PAWSA providing a remix.

Releasing on Moon Harbour, Saved and VIVa, not to mention playing residencies at Ushuaia and Amsterdam’s Studio 80, ONNO has earned his stripes as a reputable producer and DJ over the past decade. Meanwhile, Hungarian-born Barcelona-based artist Reelow’s steady rise has been enviable, appearing on Time Has Changed, Moan and Serkal, whilst garnering support from Carola, Beyer, Capriati and Loco Dice to name a few. Collaborating for the first time, this pairing is an exciting follow up to Solid Grooves’ Beatport dominating ‘See Line EP’ from Dennis Cruz.

A percussive workout from the get-go, ‘Don’t Stop’ sets out to shake dancefloors and it does so with a rumbling low-end, subtle vocal and twisted effects. ‘University Of Street’ then delivers an infectious snare while shuffling hats and mesmerising chords work their magic. Tying it together, PAWSA, known for his releases on Green Velvet’s Relief Records and Nicole Moudaber’s MOOD Records, rolls out the bass whilst emphasising the vocal in a lively rendition of ‘Don’t Stop’.

ONNO & Reelow's ‘Don't Stop’ EP drops on Solid Grooves Records on 6th May 2016

Boris Brejcha - Gravity

Solid Grooves co-founder PAWSA returns to the label with a pair of moody cuts exemplary of his distinct production style. Complete with rolling kicks and a rumbling low-end, 'Werk' features trippy vocal samples and crunchy snares before the esoteric 'Speedbump' with its sci-fi synths and echoing effects.

Faruk Mansour, known as Odd concept aka Maalek is a Techno/Minimal producer from Bielefeld in Germany. 

Faruk was born in 1999, his passion for music came at the age of 7 when he started to play the Piano. At the age of 10 he also started to play the guitar. 
Since then music became an essential part of his life. The discovery of electronic music lead to his first release in 2013 under the alias “Zealous”. In 2014, he changed his alias from "Zealous" to "KlangFest".

Remix's for Tracks like "California Dreamin" (which was in the top 5 charts on Artistunion) or his remix for Olly Murs & Demi Lovato's track "Up" hit more than 30k views. (WO?)

In 2016, he started working as an A&R & Facebook Manager for "Tipsy Records" and in 2017, also as a Social Media Manager for "Deeper Beat".

After 3 years with the alias "KlangFest", Faruk changed to Maalek and Odd Concept. While Odd Concept focuses more on Techno, Minimal and mainly underground music style, tracks produced under the alias of Maalek belong to the Deep House genre.

In 2017 Odd Concept released his first song “Second State” on "Hungry Koala Records". 



I find it simply impressively how music can reach people, it is no factor of vital importance, still, everybody needs it.
