Release Text:
Six releases in and Michigander label head Brian Kage teams up with the legendary French Techno producer, Taho, aka David Jacopin. The electronic music world knows to put respect on the Motor City, but the "Détroit EP" represents a fusion, emphasizing l’accent aigu — not a typo or spec on your screen that needs cleaning. Between Kage and Taho, their production pedigree includes releases for labels like FXHE, Planet-E, Delsin, F.Comm, and more, so it's no surprise the pairing makes for a masterfully produced EP covering the spectrum of Detroit house and techno sounds, with an added deft touch from its French connection.

"D-Twah," the D's first pronunciation, opens with classic Detroit house energy featuring all the modern accoutrements. Distant chatter between solar systems gives way to a springy bass line that sets off an interplanetary party starter with uplifting piano chord progressions and just a touch of scattered cosmic disco effects. Angelic synth choirs and arpeggiated lines introduce short breakdowns before all systems fire back up. This one is surefire fuel for the discothèque.

"La Belle Vie" picks things up with playful hand percussion, a driving guttural bass, and heavy Detroit techno stabs, reminiscent of its title in translation, one of techno's greatest hits a la Inner City. Beautiful strings sneak in building tension and drama before a piano releases any pent up energy through the stratosphere. It begs to bring on the underground warehouses or Movement festival stages again.

Entering electro terrain, "Tour De Troit" encapsulates Detroit's earliest robotic impulses, starting with inimitable, snappy 808 drums, which are pedaled over with deep pads and a revolving acid bassline. It drifts off into dreamy territory with smooth, jazzy synth waves before funky keys coolly cut through the haze. Whether early in the night or afterhours, breakers are always prepared to slide across the floor for this sound.

"Acid Renaissance" offers a clear epilogue to this journey with its cinematic and orchestral symphony. These emotive elements tower over electric undercurrents that complete an ending fit for having stumbled upon some epic space age discovery. At a time when NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover just provided the first audio recording of the Red Planet, this could very well have been the film score to that mission.

If Detroit's electronic music history is seen as a time capsule, Brian Kage and Taho have opened it, rearranged its parts to fit their mutual influences, and sealed it back together with a project worthy of future explorations.

Making his debut release on one of electronic music’s most vital labels, Michigan’s Disruptive Pattern Material emerges with ‘Necessary’, a Detroit indebted jam backed with remixes from some of the Motor City’s most influential names.

My first record on Rekids has a lot of firsts. The first "real" club I ever went inside was Detroit's famed Motor Lounge, where DJ Bone was a resident, years later as a club promoter in Brooklyn I brought Terrence Parker out for his first gig in NYC, and Scan 7's "Black Moon Rising" was the first Underground Resistance record in my collection ... it felt only right to have the people that put me down this path be involved for this project. - Disruptive Pattern Material 

Leading the A-side, the original mix of ‘Necessary’ loops a vocal chop at its core, weaving airy synths and bubbling, dubbed-out bass effortlessly throughout the track. DJ Bone’s remix sees the Subject Detroit and Encounter boss draw hidden textures from the original, adding fresh synth works atop the pitched-up vocals for a distinctly Detroit jam. 

On the flip, Intangible Records & Soundworks’ Terrence Parker introduces skipping drums under a hands-in-air piano loop, effortlessly flipping the track into a bonafide party starter. Taking the B2 spot, UR affiliates Scan 7 blend rave stabs, 909 kicks, and rubbery bass for a remix of digital-only bonus track Freedom, the original of which is a hypnotic number carried by metallic leads and vocal samples.

We at Dreaming Awake are so pleased to welcome back QuiQui to the label with his incredible acid techno/house beauty "Let There Be Light"! The 303, deep groove and familiar vocal will take people back to the golden days of acid house, but with that modern production we all love! On remix duties we welcome back one of the most globally recognized top producers on the planet, Jamie Stevens! Oh boy did he deliver yet another totally unique and seriously killer remix with his Acid Test Remix!!! Think old school Hardfloor 303 vibes, but only how Mr. Stevens can do best! WOW! Label boss Treavor Moontribe's remix rounds out the release with more of an edit than a remix, simply taking the original track in a slightly different direction, more stripped down and driving!

Originally hailing from Serbia, Misha is a Washington DC-based artist who has been making a name for himself with releases on Rawthentic, Tamango, and his own High Class Nasty imprint, with his last two outings gracing the top spot in the Beatport tech house charts. The Echostage resident now readies his Hottrax debut with the vibrant ‘Ritmo De Verao’ EP, fusing kinetic beats and low-end grooves. 

Opener 'Ritmo De Verao' is a party-pumping cut peppered with lively percussion, rolling snares and tin-pot sounds next to an alluring vocal that brings the heat to what is a no-nonsense tech house weapon. 'Issues' follows, combining more steamy house beats with sensuous vocals, slick drum programming and smart filters to build the tension before 'Snake Charmer' enters more hypnotic territories with its mystic leads, chopped vocal stabs and restless toms. 

Misha (US) ‘Ritmo De Verao’ EP drops via Hottrax on 12th April 2024. 

Tracklist: 
1. Ritmo De Verao 
2. Issues 
3. Snake Charmer
