Solaris returns to Parallax new-born sublabel PARADUBS with a limited lathe cut to give a little preview on what´s on the horizon for Parallax. Aurora flips a classic vocalhook into a summery rolling Amen tune, a tasty light tune that let´s you forget about those turublent times. The flip 'New Moon' is on a darker tip and lightens up 2/3rds into the tune with melancholic pads. Available in limited quantities on the Runout, be quick!

Mastered by Beau Thomas@ Ten Eight Seven Mastering, cut by DJ Perception@ Moodswing

Peoples Station #57 - 01/03/25 - DJ Chromz & Vali NME Click

It´s a 12 Bit Jungle Out There and it´s touching down on Parallax! 

With releases on PPJ Recordings and Foundation Records and a strong online presence, you can´t escape his Amiga productions right now! His style is unmistakenly his and this EP gives a nice oversight what he´s capable of: great musicality, punchy and juicy breaks, boomin basslines, interesting and unusual arrangements - but hear for yourself. This was a long time in the making and we are happy to finally bring 12 Bit Jungle Out There to your eardrums. 

Your whole life is 'Just A Dream'! This tune was the initial reason we reached out to the man. We saw a short videoclip of him in his hardware studio presenting a rough sketch of it and immediately fell in love with the retro sample paired with the boomin bass, lazy drums and melancholic pianos. It drops superheavy into machinegun amens, 'Right now ya baaaad' vocals and will leave you disoriented until the piano returns to catch you from stumbling over your dancing feet. It´s an adorable tune with just the right mixture of light and darkness again.

Testpresses will be available at the Runout on the 13th April 2025. Be quick!

12 Bit Jungle Out There - Just A Dream [PARA025]

We are absolutely thrilled to finally present you the return of Solaris to the label! It´s been a long time in the making, but we shortened your wait with Aurora/ New Moon on PARADUBS002 which came from the same set of tracks. So, here you have it: 4 more absolutely timeless tunes by the gifted man like Dean! 

'Solarize' opens with bongos and soothing vocals before echoing pitched-down snares lead into rolling amens and long choral pads. A fat subbass accompanies the rolling amens and we´re off for a fantastic journey: Big chord pianos and a dreamy atmosphere lull you and the fat subs and beats ensure this works for both the headphone as well as the dancefloor crew. A future classic!

The track samples have been gently edited to show all important parts of the tunes.

Solaris - Solarize [PARA026]

We are absolutely thrilled to finally present you the return of Solaris to the label! It´s been a long time in the making, but we shortened your wait with Aurora/ New Moon on PARADUBS002 which came from the same set of tracks. So, here you have it: 4 more timeless tunes by a gifted man like Dean! 

'Drift On By' is the perfect tune to welcome the first sun rays of a new day. Deep and atmospheric, this one is a steady builder and has the right mixture to let your soul fly or your feet shuffle. Lush long pads and punchy drums, male and female vocal snippets, and a hypnotic swirling guitar make this very special. It sounds like a lost Bukem dubplate, like Good Looking in its heyday. We are very proud to have this on Parallax.
