Orbis X is a sublabel of Orbis Records and will be mainly focusing on softer yet often usable as DJ material for the broader mass interested in Electronic music. This sublabel is an extension of Orbis Records’ softer, more melodical and experimental side. Music will be ranging from house, dub, chicago over melodic acid and even breaks. Not any track makes it to this sublabel if it can't stand on its own and stand the test of time!

We warmly welcome the Dutch duo Dennis Pors & Stephan de Bruijn to OrbisX. New fresh talent, ready to conquer the world. We feel obliged to support these fine gentlemen to get their music spread across the globe.

Dennis & Stephan know each other through their musical perspectives. They share a similar taste for music, Detroit techno. 
Before they worked together, Dennis experimented with deep house through digital synths and learned the ins and outs of programming music in Logic. Stephan was well known with the detroit techno scene. His passion goes out to well balanced electronic music with hypnotizing emotional feeling to it. Add a layer of atmospheric grooves on top of that and you have the perfect blend to potential timeless music.

Soon enough they made the switch to analog gear to be able to create a cleaner and better sound. After three years of hard work, they have reached the sound they were looking for. 

And this is it!
Their debut on vinyl.

D&S servers a full EP called Thoughts EP. A great cocktail of dreamy and diverse electronic tunes. This EP fits well in the back of any DJ bag to warm up the place or fix the atmosphere on roof-top bar in NYC.
Smooth cruising, roof down car music or background music on a spring night with a summery breeze …  This EP is amazing and works best on a big sounds systems and major festivals!

“Childs play”, what’s in a name. 
Nothing like that melody. 
Creating a generously opening atmosphere, but actually brilliantly mixed creating the perception of simplicity.
Groovy, acid touches and funky. Can’t keep still when being played. A-track for sure!

“Thoughts“ might have a dark feel to it but evolves in a very uplifting track in just a few moments,
making it very bright and fun to play. Shed light to the place, should have been a great title as well,
but thoughts is the best name for this track. The story in this track is definitely there to be told and listened to.

“Edge Of Insanity“ kicks of the B-side.
Goosebumps, as from the start. Building up slowly to a very melodic and yet simply track, it’s the perfect translation for a sunrise at the beach.
Potential Ibiza hit if you ask us. 

“Submission” is a track straight out of a movie. 
Clever, nice build up, dreamy, spacey and above all so amazingly subtle. 
This is what falling in love should sound like.

We’re humble. We’re amazed. We’re honoured to host D&S.
We hope this duo gets the attention they deserve with this EP.
Full support for Dennis & Stephan.

Out now on Vinyl only release: http://bit.ly/REKIDS112

A heartfelt dedication to his son Isaias, ‘Aspirations for Young Xol’ takes us through the life of a pillar in the electronic music community - Santiago Salazar. From his formative years spent in California to his connection with Detroit and the passing of a childhood friend, the long-player’s tracks signpost the musician’s significant experiences, both positive and negative. This meaningful body of work was released digitally on Pastel Voids and now Rekids release the album on wax.

‘Saturated Fear’ sets a deep tone for the LP, flanging melodies and echoing claps float through the composition before the album’s title track ‘Aspirations for Young Xol’ offers haunting arpeggios with occasional acidic overtones which are cleverly offset by beautifully designed lead synth transitions. ‘Bloodlines’ follows a similar musical vein with delayed bass riffs that are suspended above shimmering hihats and a weighted kick.

Santiago provides three beatless pieces throughout, which digress into more emotional territory whilst offering brief respite from his heavier drum work. ‘Xol’s Pain’ combines orchestral strings and swelling synthesisers which build tension with a subtly complex, evolving motif. Both ‘Dark Matter’ and ‘Ode to Stinson’ use arresting atmospheres, warped arpeggios and ethereal pads which lull the listener into a retrospective mood.

An intensity builds in the later tracks, a gritty but powerful low end provides a solid foundation in ‘Orange Blossom Thump”, eventually making way for a hectic and elastic lead synth before ‘Pachuco Dub’ displays drones that build a dissonant pressure in which the complex tom rhythms and rolling hi hats can grow. ‘Sarah Rivera’ hypnotises with its delectable chord progressions and complimentary melodies which seem to float above a rigid drum composition to close the album with style.

RV Trax Vol 3 - 15/02/19 - http://smarturl.it/rvtraxvol3

1. BärtauB - Archivolt  https://soundcloud.com/baertaub
2. Dawn Razor - Acid Funk https://soundcloud.com/awnazor
3. Milesh - Jedi Mind Design https://soundcloud.com/milesh90
4. Izan Hesse - Tinder Express https://soundcloud.com/izanhesse


R&S founder Renaat Vandepapeliere returns with his personal RV Trax series showcasing the sounds he plays on the dancefloor.  
Part three explores his ongoing love of underground techno and breaks.

BärtauB are probably the most experienced producers on this EP and count heavyweights like Ricardo Villalobos and [a:rpia:r] as fans.  In their home city of Istanbul and across the minimal scene of Europe the cognoscenti know Mutlu San & Batu Guler as DJ’s of impeccable taste.  Archivot is another ace hypnotic house groove to add to their impressive discography.

Russian techno-head Dawn Razor impressed with previous releases on A R T S and Anemone.  Hearing his broken beat techno club tool ‘Acid Funk’ dropped on the right soundsystem in the right hands will be a joy.

Milesh aka Pavel Anastasov is a Bulgarian DJ and producer based in Bucharest, Romania.  His track Jedi Mind Design brings back the breakbeats and twists and turns through a 10 minutes loopy, rolling ride.

Barcelona based electronic musician Izan Hesse contributes ‘Tinder Express’ a deep and dark breakbeat excursion soaked in moody strings.  If you liked the recent Mariel Ito compilation on R&S you should find something to like in this track.

Mix it up don’t play it raw.

Australian DJ Life brings his esoteric ambiance on Finnish label, Echocentric Records after impressive string of releases on Gnork’s Blorp Label and Gestalt Records. The 4 track EP titled ‘Neural Oscillations EP’ is a dreamy escapade beginning with ‘Peia’ to the finale on ‘Abduction’. B1 track, ‘Mindreader’, has sub-electro workings with a cunning 303 acid-bassline, heady rhythm section and a celestial synth that hypnotizes a minute into the track. ‘Mindreader’ is formulated with wispy hi-hats, echoing twerps & chirps, schwifty vocal loops for a good psychedelic measure. ‘Mindreader’ is pleasurable, blissful and displays great range of depth with very sound production techniques that will leave you wanting more.

If you enjoyed this lush track, check out emerging label Echocentric for future releases as well as budding talent – DJ Life. Echocentric & DJ Life’s ‘Neural Oscillations EP’ is slated for August 23rd with digital and vinyl.

PREMIERE: DJ Life - Mindreader (ECR001)

Following his solo 12" debut in November on AC Records, Armec returns with a 4-track EP on Echocentric Records.

The music on offer is rich and emotional - enter microworlds of subtle melodies, pads and sci-fi drones that ooze both melancholy and hope, and will appeal to anyone into electro, IDM and techno.

A-side is a nod to Robbie's IDM roots. Just check the expansive soaring synth-work on "Auden" and the analogue moods of "Conceptualise". The droney, murky & dystopian sci-fi soundscapes of side B offer another view into Armec's production work.

Keep an eye out for Armec in 2020, more quality releases on their way.

PREMIERE : Armec - Auden

Core mission: 
Transcend mediocre electronic music.
Orbis Records and projects like Orbis X, Orbis LST, ...

"The press part"

Standard records are often too mediocre. The average track has been wrongfully given to much attention in order to achieve maximum income per release. Since digital music has been more available than ever, standards have been low as never seen before.

Some tracks are brilliant and special, others aren't worth it. Not even to get a digital format. Many tracks have been wrongfully given to much attention & have been falsely setting the tone for the new good. Good is not good enough!

We truly believe that music should be treated honestly and no one should lower the bar.
As a label, you should set an example. You should feel obligated to find the best mastering out there for your tracks. You should give honest feedback to new artists. You should define quality at the highest level possible.

We're extremely transparent in our communication in order to give you the most uncensored information about the other side of the music industry.

We aim to release the best we can get in our current time frame.
We don't settle with good enough. We're here to make a difference and help other to do so in any way we possibly can.

We want to transcend mediocre electronic music. We will do so in any way we can and help other people as well, in any format or any product possible. We happen to start with hypnotic & stripped down electronic music.
"The Orbis label"

Orbis Records is probably one of those underground deep techno labels Belgium never had until now. The label will provide dark, deep and stripped down hypnotic techno music as wide as the box can get.

'Thinking outside the box is our priority' is possibly the most used sentence when it comes to label descriptions but we have no limits. Our priority is bringing deep, hypnotic and stripped down techno music that will please the partygoer as well as the record collector.

"The Orbis X sublabel"

Orbis X is a sublabel of Orbis Records and will be mainly focusing on softer yet often usable as DJ material for the broader mass interested in Electronic music. This sublabel is an extension of Orbis Records’ softer, more melodical and experimental side. Music will be ranging from house, dub, chicago over melodic acid and even breaks. Not any track makes it to this sublabel if it can't stand on its own and stand the test of time!

"The Orbis LST sublabel"

more soon.

"The simple part"

We aren't just another fish in the sea, not 'some' label that will release every week a load of crappy tracks to get that monthly cashflow. Instead we're scheduling our releases every 3 to up to 6 months (or maybe even more) depending on the time to find or create music that fits our vision.

It all stands and falls with the quality and character of the music in a wide perspective. Innovation, sound and emotion are the main driving forces behind our passion.

Music & artwork will be our #1 priority in order to move and touch all you collectors and fans of the deep & stripped sound out there !
