Collaborative pairings often bring a frisson of excitement in the world of music production, particularly when an established artist and comparative newcomer join forces. "The Version" EP from Sapiens and Springa brings that thrill to Particles.

From the Bauhaus inspired buildings of the 1930s on the Mediterranean coastline, Tel Aviv resident, Alon Shapiro, has been immersed within the culture of music, spending a decade honing his production persona. Now debuting that production talent through his Sapiens moniker, the Israeli producer builds upon recent success. Trained in classical piano from an early age, a subsequent vinyl addiction and the joy of music stemming from the art of the 'mixtape', Sapiens found an eclectic passion for "intelligent, underground genres" ultimately distilled into a love of pioneering electronic that included Jean Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk and The Orb. Academic studies in music production followed as did gigs at local clubs and venues in the mid 2000s before the Sapiens name took hold in 2006. A portfolio of work has subsequently flowed leading to work signed for Baroque, Suffused Music and Stellar Fountain.

Although the name Springa has an outward appearance of a newcomer to the underground dance movement, Mattias Lindblom is a name firmly entrenched in the modern music industry through an integral part played in the Swedish outfit, Inkfish. A man of incomparable production pedigree, Lindblom has seen his work signed to a vast collection of blue chip labels including over 250 signed to Inkfish's own successful, eponymously named imprint. Launching the Springa production alter ego through a remix of Mistol Team for Baroque in 2014, 2015 has proved a successful year for Lindblom as Springa has seen further work signed for Mistique Music and Pangea. Furthermore work for System Recordings including a remix of Sapiens himself, set the duo up for exciting collaborative work that now manifests itself fully in "The Version".

An EP arranged into two distinct halves, "Introversion" and "Extroversion" supply a pair of opening salvos wrapped around a common percussive narrative and musical themes. "Introversion" opens proceedings with a metronomic bass line that fires off the rhythmic section with intelligence while a series of musical motifs, riffs and stabs provide an elegant contribution. A driving, pulsating affair, "Extroversion" quickly finds its feet with a spine-tingling bass line progression that dominates the melodic direction. A clever vocal cut weaves its way in and out in a variety of guises that are reminiscent of classic progressive house tunes of yesteryear to crate an aura of intrigue and nostalgia.

Taking vocal cues from its "Extroversion" counterpart, "April Heart" continues the bass line dominance of its predecessor as it growls and filters its way over the opening movements in emotive fashion. Evolving purposefully in the breakdown and beyond, a delicious arpeggio riff opens up the upper frequency spectrum with delightful fashion to create a driving, vibrant work. A stripped back "Dub Mix" minus the vocal component completes an impressive picture.

A quartet of tracks from Sapiens and Springa demonstrates a striking common purpose through "The Version".

Coca & Villa - Wet Dreams ft Bellam Shine (Jose Ponce & Fran LK Private Remix)

Artist: Woo York
Title: The Valley Of Songs Label: Life and Death
Cat: LAD020
Release: 25-February-2015 Format: Vinyl & Digital  

With its first release of the new year, Life and Death is proud to introduce the newest members of its formidable and tight knit family, Woo York. Hailing from the Ukraine, this hard working duo has been successfully making the transition from local heroes to major international players through their crafting of strong, emotive techno accompanied by a live show notable for its improvisational streak, allowing the guys to stay true to the spirit of the songs while still adapting them to whatever setting they find themselves presented with.
!For their debut appearance on Life and Death, they show an impressive range as they move from one mood to the next while always retaining their cohesive sound. From the beautiful opening salvo of The Valley Of Songs to the forward march of Odyssey to the unrelenting battle cry of Black Soul and then back to the triumphant finale of Distance, Woo York cover all the bases here, taking the listener on a trip that feels complete from start to finish.
!It’s an impressive beginning for their debut on Life and Death and we can surely expect much more from this forward thinking pair in the years to come..
!On the digital release, the extra bonus track He and She is also included.

LAD020 Woo York - The Valley Of Songs

Nuno dos Santos’ boutique label SoHaSo (shorthand for Something Happening Somewhere; although, sadly the same can no longer be said of Trouw) has been cruising steadily for the best part of two years now, but "Tonii" might just be the best thing committed to wax yet. Love Over Entropy's 12m original is sturdy with bright flourishes throughout, forever climbing and searching without resolve; techy without, y'know, being techy. 

This retouch comes from none other than Innervisions' main man, although  less overtly lovelorn than we've come to expect. He  twists the lead melody into something resembling a steel pan drum, backed by laser-guided synths pinging all around: a festival-sized breakdown held just at the precipice, never fully cresting. Dixon, you big tease.

1) Moonwalk - Domino
2) Moonwalk - Turning Away
3) Moonwalk - Damage

The Italian-born duo Moonwalk add Definition:Music to their already stunning discography. Having released on labels like Dynamic, OFF and Snatch!, their EP ‘Domino’ is right at home on Definition. The title track is big, big enough for late night party people who need that extra boost of energy to take it over the top thanks to its heavy basslines and dramatic synth-work. Continuing in this fashion is ‘Turning Away’. Heavy kicks, rising arpeggios and deep, dirty basslines sprinkled with smoky vocals. The final track is slightly more House oriented. ‘Demege’ captivates us with its beautiful, melodic synth work and retro feel, yet stays dark and deep.

SHEWASONLY - Afraid (Original Mix)

Marc Mitchell hard to find 2004 Remix of the classic proghouse tune "Twist & Shout" from Quivver finally gets a re-release on Mesmeric Classics. For long time fans - Enjoy!

Quivver - Twist & Shout (Marc Mitchell Remix 2016 Remaster) MESMERIC CLASSICS 002 - OUT NOW!

Early support & nice comments by:
Solomun, Stephan Bodzin, Âme, Ivan Smagghe, Nick Warren, Acid Washed, M.A.N.D.Y., David Mayer, Agents of Time, Stereo MCs, Sasch BBC, CamelPhat, Gel Abril, Dyed Soundorom, Moodmanc, Larse, Betoko, Re.You, Tiga, Martin Eyerer, Coyu, Nice7, Madmotormiquel, Chasing Kurt, Edu Imbernon, Smash TV, Human Life, Javier Orduna, Joyce Muniz, Stefan Z & so much more.

True veterans of the dance movement are featured in the 23rd release of Jeudi Records. D-Nox & Beckers have proven uncountable times their special dedication and skills to our genre since more than a decade now. As a duo, solo or involved in projects e.g. as Frankey & Sandrino with their uberhit “Acamar”.

Needless to say we are proud they‘ve accepted our invitation to join the JEUDI family. Their outstanding track “Serenade” was hitting our hearts from the frst listen. JEUDI co-boss Doctor Dru is delivering the “to the point” remix for this single tracker. Both tracks were highly demanded and caused massive reactions on the foors when tested by the crew.

A1 Serenade (Original Mix)
D-Nox & Beckers arranged this bomb with all their experience. Trancyish with a tasteful sounddesign. Constantly dragging you in and let’s you loose touch with the ground at some point. Ecstatic, blissful moments we had with this one and we are looking forward to releasing it fnally for your pleasure.

B1 Serenade (Doctor Dru Remix)
Doctor Dru is reducing the “Serenade” to the essentiell with a more techish approach. His feel for catchy arps and heavy basslines became more and more his signature sound defning his latest releases. With Dru receiving a lot of attention by heavy weights like Solomun or Nic Fanciulli recently we are sure his version will fnd a lot of friends on the foor.

Exclusive WhoMadeWho 'I Don't Know (Stereocalypse Remix)'

Set off by a simple and consistent bassline, a tangible drum beat, we are lured into the 7:51 track with a steady grate of percussion followed by a gradual interpolation of electronic application. Complex strata of organic and synthetic sounds emerge fluidly and ascend into a harmonious climax, which with the brief omission of the dominant drum beat, preludes into the first vocal at exactly one minute. A beautiful interchange between instrumental and vocal and Stereocalypse’s dextrous play of diminishing and aggrandizing elements to draw on and draw out the emotions of the original track, are the vim and vigor of this remix. Through a firm and innovative control of tempo and complexity, the remix accentuates the turbulent emotional implications of the track’s lyrics, making it more poignant. WhoMadeWho’s provocative music videos are the icing on the cake to their music, adding the third dimension to their exceptional lyrics and sound. In their remix of I Don’t Know, Stereocalypse’s adds the right elements that bring listeners as close to an audio-visual experience as possible. Hence, there is no wonder that what WhoMadeWho bandmember Tomas Barfod identified as 'a very mellow remix', continues to infiltrate dance floors. Barfod, co-producer of the track had already said it best: 'It somehow turns out to be quite euphoric when played in the club.'

Stereocalypse's remix for WhoMadeWho was released on September 1st, 2017 on Embassy Of Music.
