PODCASTS & LIVE RECORDINGS

“Drop The Other,” the first e.p. from Emika – and already making a late shout for one of the year’s most auspicious debuts. Even before release, Emika’s has received airplay from tastemaking DJs like Zane Lowe + Mary-Anne Hobbs. On “Drop The Other,” eerie, near-classical piano collides into glitched-out edits and skitering drum patterns, while speaker-shattering lows rub against Emika’s own hushed, cryptic vocals, the iconoclastic blend marking her an artist that makes a habit of defying expectation. Just when you think you know what you’re hearing, Emika flips the script: the cinematic sound architecture evokes the deepest techno, but the tempo moves too slow, the beats too jagged; the sub-bass, meanwhile, could shudder the most underground dubstep club, but it’s paired with haunting, syncopated vocal hooks that suggest Aaliyah’s work with Timbaland taken to its darkest extreme.

 “I make pop, but with a hard edge, playing different sounds and intensities against each other,” she explains. “I try to stay on the fence, leaving room for the listener to create a sense of what its about. It’s all about tension for me.” Tension, indeed. Emika’s music evokes comparison to the visionary likes of the XX, Fever Ray, The Knife, Burial and Circlesquare – artists that stand outside of genre, maintaining an uncanny timelessness of their own. As such, the words and sonics captured on “Drop The Other” prove both utterly catchy but experimental, erotic yet never overtly sexual, clearly confessional but shrouded in mystery.It’s a sound and vision that parallels Emika’s roundabout entrée into becoming a performing artist, a musical journey spiraling from suburban London and inner-city Bristol to cutting-edge Berlin. 

Emika has called in some fantastic remixes. Scuba aka Paul Rose was a London dubstep pioneer, but in 2007 he too relocated to Berlin. His “Vulpine Remix” gets foxy with the original, importing vinyl static, ticking clocks and reversed cymbals, disembodying the vocals and making something deep and driving all at once. GeRM, meanwhile, takes the track “Double Edge” and spin it out into euphoric, glitchy electro-house that has already found its way on to Ministry of Sound playlists.  Emika is also working collaboratively with visual artist Mox, developing designs and video inspired by her music, as well as a kinetic, multimedia live show. Emika's music is full of unexpected emotional alleyways and late-night allure, tones that alternate between crushing and beautiful, beats hypnotic in both the club and in solitude. “Balancing the future and convention, submission and control—that’s very important to me,” Emika concludes. “What I find powerful is the margins: those things inbetween, pointing out but never explaining. It never resolves, so it leaves a pit inside you – but I like the pit.”

Moonwalk Dj Set @ Ritter Butzke - 27/01/2018

The word pioneer may get thrown around a little to casually these days but in this case its the only word to use. Kasey Taylor is a true pioneer of the Australian music industry. His work as a DJ, producer and record label head helped pave the way for for many, in this country and around the world. 

It really is an honour for us to be involved in releasing this three hour retrospective mix. Firstly because we know how much it means to Kacey, and secondly because its historically significant to the Australian electronic music industry and community. Kasey and Vapour really did help put this city and country of ours on the map. For that we thank you!!

Some words from Kacey... 

In 1997 I had a dream that i wanted to start my own record label. The music i was writing at that particular moment wasn’t suited to Mushroom records, which is who i was signed up with at the time. I was signed to Paul Oakenfold’s Perfecto records in the UK though Mushroom records, but that wasn’t enough for me. I couldn’t have the creative control that i personally wanted. The idea behind it was simply to have an outlet to release my own records on and nothing more. I didn’t care about the money, I would’ve just been happy to break even on a vinyl release as long as i could keep putting out the tunes i believed in. I just wanted that piece of vinyl in my hand that had my name on it, my tunes, my style, my vibe. I believed in myself and what i was writing at the time and i had good connections in the industry worldwide, so i thought fuck it, lets give this a crack and see what happens. Can only fall on my arse after 2 releases right?

Vapour Recordings was born with the help of John Course and Andy Van at Vicious Vinyl - Two people i can’t thank enough for this opportunity. They had an established label already set up and were pressing vinyl, so this made the process easier to for me to get started. I hit up my best mate who’s not with us anymore in the UK - Andy Jarrod. He was working at Unique Distribution and i asked him if he would be up for distributing my label. We came to an agreement and we launched the label and started getting vinyl in the right hands - John Digweed, Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, Dave Seaman and so on - All the big guns. Before i knew it the label was getting worldwide traction in a flash. It was quite overwhelming but so exciting. I had demos coming in from all angles and before i knew it the label had blown up globally.

Today i sit here and I’m honoured to be able to say that i had the pleasure of working with the who’s who of the music industry on my label, and i’m thankful to have had thousands of people support the label and myself worldwide. I have had some fantastic artists on the label that all brought their A game for every release, be it an original or a remix. I can’t thank each and everyone of them enough for their continued support, but most importantly all the fans of the label that supported it and enabled it to become the label that it did. 137 releases later and that brings us up to today.

I’ve had a break from the label and making music for 2/3 years now and have been audio engineering and working in the background helping some of the younger crew reach their goals, but we are currently under going a branding upgrade and will kick things off again from the middle of 2018, so stay tuned.

This mix is a hand picked retrospective of some of the best releases that did it for me on dance floors all over the world over the past 21 years.

Music has a very short shelf life these days. I barely remember any of the tunes i played a month ago. There’s a few that sneak through but nothing like what it was back in the day. Making this mix was fun, nostalgic and it reminded me of the days where i felt a lot of love went into music and made it memorable. Music that you remember the next week, the next month, or years later….

His first release was in 2006 and since then he had lots of releases on different imprints such as Noir Music, Selador, Einmusika Recordings, just to name a few.
