Deep inside in our Playground, we’ve been hiding some special tricks that usually use when we play. A perfect combination of unreleased gems, alternatives versions, weird edits and some oldies but goldies which never saw the light. 

  Now we decided to open the magic box and unveil it’s content, creating a new free download series.   

Here are our SECRET POTIONS.

Secret Potions

Berlin-East Frisian artist Heindenreich presents his new EP ‘Gitarren im Darkroom’. A carefully crafted sonic journey through the subconscious landscapes of a twisted mind. Loaded with metallic percussion and syncopated rhythms the EP is characterized by mysterious atmospheres, rolling bass lines and beefy beats. On top of these we find obscure vocals provided by Timo Heidenreich himself on ‘Gitarren im Darkroom’ and german-french artist ANGST vor GRETA on “Die Göttliche Bewegung” adding to the tracks phantasmagoric vibes. Dirty guitars and psychotic synth melodies are the main ingredients of this freaked-out recipe, presenting a certainly explosive catchy formula characteristically decorated with Heidenreich’s always present pinches of exotic flavors.
Rounding up the EP this time remixes come in the hands of Tel Aviv’s mighty producer Mishell, and Hanzo, head of Vienna based label Belly Dance Services and half of the duo Hanzo & Yaman.
Mishell delivers a bomb of a remix imprinting his spicy burning signature sound that brings any dancefloor to life .
Hanzo's Divine clouds remix transforms the original into a trip hop inspired psychedelic delirium that takes us through the hypnosis of snake charmer.

Alexis Le-Tan and Tom Colebrook quite fluidly morph into our lazy initials: ALTC. Our current appreciation for an older psychedelic sound can be traced back to a dirty, careless and omnipotent period in the early 90’s when the sun, the Fridge Club or Space Tribe leggings brought our bodies together in time to these heroic sounds. Then it all sort of just wound down, more abruptly for some, and for a long time. But like old Smaug under the Lonely Mountain, we understood the longevity of gold. A few years just gone we embarked on a restlessly chaotic and passionate re-appraisal of our sonic past - just at a different speed. An ever growing archive and many edits later, we find ourselves still going; we are a happy and volatile little team, Mr. Le-Tan, who needs no introduction here, a Titan of this slow sound - arguably the original, whose honed booth selections are regularly adorned by loyal crowds all over Europe. Mr. Colebrook, a flash in the pan veteran of the Goa scene, now mainly chief archivist and an Internal wordsmith of ill repute.
There was a folder that existed in the archive called ‘The Socialists’ and over time as we pondered it, we began to understand the contents as taking on some sort of metaphor for a socialist arc of success and defeat, of growth and change, of hope and loss, of commitment and desertion, of lies and the truth, of battles and peace, emptiness and loss. Heroic themes indeed Comrades. As a musical selection, we wanted to imbue these metaphors with corresponding sonic inflections, sometimes we thought of sounds coming up through the ground to fight and be victorious or perhaps to lose, only to retreat and live another solitary day. Some were sounds for a moment of blissful morning sun soaked success, or the grey pulse of an imagined industrial trench. But above all - this selection of songs shows a commitment to each other and to the time and place they were made, and how they exist here - Now. We hope you enjoy the show!

After releases on Hivern Disc and Nitsa Traxx amongst many other labels the prolific spanish producer appears for the first time in Calypso with a 4 track EP that has been waiting to see the light for a long time...and finally the time has come.
The music goes from the slow motion percussive sounds to acid basslines and modulated sounds that reverberate deep in the soul. The atmosphere of the music is enigmatic, cinematic and futuristic but also melancholic and primitive. There are a lot of skills in the production style of this Barcelonian producer.
To complete the package Mr Tc delivers a hypnotic techno(ish) remix that makes this EP a very strong comeback for Calypso Records.

Tracklist: 

1 - It's Shining
2 - Comfotable Paths 
3 - Shapes In The Rain Forest
4 - Ceremonial Ride
5 - Ceremonial Ride (Mr TC Remix)

'Human Endeavour' is the newest addition to Ransom Note Records’ family of sub-labels. Curated and run by Ransom Note Editor, and one half of DJ duo Kiara Scuro, Rosie Ama Cain, the label will be a space for artists who are exploring the dark, deep and hypnotic corners of the musical spectrum.

For the inaugural release, six artists have come together for Trains Of Thought: a Various Artists EP that gives a window into some of the sounds, styles and names that you’ll be hearing on the label in the future.

On Beats In Space and Lurid Music producer Anatolian Weapons' track, ‘The Moon And The Sun’, he takes cues from EBM, Kraut and Industrial, matching ominous chugging bass with an intoxicating synth lead and incessant percussion. 

Human Endeavour, a name inspired by a mathematics talk penned by Rosie’s late father, which drew its own inspiration from quotes by Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, works on the belief that as long as there's life there will be creative endeavour, and that no matter what you create, the action of bringing something into the world is an achievement in itself.

This idea is echoed in the music policy. Though it will swirl around sounds like minimal wave, acid, chugging rhythms, UK techno, EBM and post-punk, the output will primarily be driven by mood and feeling rather than genre tags.

Following on from their much loved One Night Stands Volume 1 - La Belle Records ups the ante with an epic 2nd volume. Walking the same path as the first record Vol 2 unearths a further 10 mind-blowing examples of 'slo-mo synth-pop, lo-fi fusion, space dubs, tribal grooves and spiralling nu-disco electronics'.

Featuring tracks curated by Golden Bug from some of his robot mates such as : Get A Room!, Strapontin, Funboys, Roe Deers, Front De Cadeaux, Rodion & Leonard de Leonard, Ellis Island (a collaboration between Bawrut and Hot Spell) and many others, all brought together from around the world in the way La Belle Records loves to do.

This is a compilation of danceable but freaked out electronics. Out there productions and truly wild ideas that push the boundary's of what the underground is in 2020. Music that makes any set memorable.

Out on La Belle Records this September with an attractive limited pink vinyl available on the same day.
