Kicking off the new year Steve Bug style – Poker Flat Recordings sets course for another year of quality house music. The label boss himself presents us with the first transmission of 2014 - and the title succinctly nails what to expect.

'Simple, Thick & Raw' contains three tracks that are simultaneously gritty, tough and highly effective. 

'The Arpeggio' contains Bug’s signature control of tension – an arpeggiated synth line bubbles along, hardly restrained, on top of a firing drum pattern, resulting in a groove wound tight and packed with suspense. 

'Thickest Bass' is also fairly self explanatory- a pitched down vocal introduces what might just be the filthiest bottom end Bug has ever produced. The track has a raw, off-kilter quality that will see it destroy many clubs when dropped at the optimum moment.

'Smoking Parrot' completes the trio, a tough yet spacey burner that builds into a indisputable floor-rocker, complete with punchy claps, descending bass-line and Bug’s well honed dynamics.

'Life in Circles'  completes the release - a tech house pearl with a touch of acid.

INFO:
It’s 2020, the dusty Pets plain spreads out before you. Nothing but sand, cactus plants and a bottle of good old red eye are all you have for company. Then you hear the shots. They’re fired with such flare they can only be from one man… Renato Cohen AKA the ‘Lone Ranger’
He fires in such a way you can’t help but move your feet. Then you move your hips. Then your head. Then your heart. You’re in funky town now and Renato’s the mayor. He leads with the disco bubbles and slinky restrained funk of ‘Lone Ranger’ before moving on to the heavier weaponry; the cowbell riddled, hoover-rattled stomper ‘Deocleciana’ and the bassline-plunging, deep funk hustling swagger of ‘Bismuth’.
And it seems our lonesome techno patrolman isn’t working alone… ‘Bismuth’ is also backed by an incredible remix from Jennifer Cardini. Ramping up the energy with a precision arpeggio bassline and injecting an entirely different sense of uplift with a lavish synth melody, it shoots from the hip in the most euphoric of ways.

The festival season 2020 might be canceled, but the open air feel lives on in Levantine’s first release on Turbolenz. The Mexico City-based producer delivers an absolute dance worthy record that taps into the likes of Disco, Synthwave and House. Combining fizzy textures, sounds and rhythms, the E.P. brings the uplifting songs we need this summer. Its first track 'Metropolis’ immediately throws us onto the dance floor and takes us back to the future. ‘No romance’ drives us uptempo into a vibrant world of multichromatic sounds with contemporary House elements. ‘Burning Cosmos’ then immerses us on a dance floor in zero-gravity, rich of sounds and colors, with dreamy vocals and a full-bodied bassline. The closing is served with a remix by Ruede Hagelstein who deconstructs Levantine’s ‘Burning Cosmos’ entirely, taking it apart and putting it back together in his very own yet unexpected way. Levantine and Turbolenz joined forces for a strong and exciting release – and much more is planned. The label announced remixes of the ‘Metropolis’ E.P. by the Turbolenz artists in the coming weeks, including Ebrahimi, Delenz, VØSNE and Richard IV.The festival season 2020 might be canceled, but the open air feel lives on in Levantine’s first release on Turbolenz.
