Tibi Dabo returns with ‘Overture’, a third tantalising single from his forthcoming Crosstown Rebels album, with remixes from Map.ache and Aline Umber.

The first two singles from the project, ‘Triple Frontier’ and ‘Licht’, have shown what Barcelona’s Tibi Dabo is all about - forward-thinking electronic music with original drums (a result of him having toured the globe with his band) and plenty of cosmic twists and character. A label favourite having dropped his ‘Isla’ EP on Crosstown Rebels back in 2022, ahead of his much-anticipated debut LP comes this third superb taster from it.

The superb ‘Overture’ is an eight-minute gem with super smooth percussion and elastic grooves, with wispy sci-fi chords and gentle synth modulations. It’s full of future feels and catchy drum funk that is sophisticated and smartly detailed with choppedup vocal fragments.

First to remix is Leipzig’s Map.ache, co-founder of Kann Records and member of the Giegling family. His take builds with fatter drums that are just as infectious, while rippling synth loops weave in and out as flashy basslines cut loose and balmy pads add extra cosmic absence to a hypnotic mix of the heady and the physical.

Aline Umber, a collaborative live project from French composers, producers and DJs Aline Brooklyn and Aman Umber, are second to remix. They run the Airfunk label and are no stranger to playing cult spots like Rex Club in Paris. Their ‘23% Eventide’ mix is a blissed-out and synth-laced trip with subtle, smeared chords and starry-eyed keys that have you gazing off into the distance as you get lost in the warm drums.

- The lastest full-length effort from LA-based synth mastermind JOHN TEJADA
- An unabashedly dreamy collection of 11 expertly crafted cuts that rank among the artist's best work to date
- 2xLP edition pressed on 180gr audiophile vinyl, including a CD of the entire album

Following his much-acclaimed full-length „The Predicting Machine“ (KOMPAKT 267 CD 102) and a slew of pop-infused 12“ singles - „We Can Pretend“ (KOMPAKT 286) and „Somewhere“ (KOMPAKT 264) -, LA-based synth mastermind JOHN TEJADA returns with new album SIGNS UNDER TEST: comprised of all-new material, this latest effort sees the studio wizard digging deeper into his modules, unearthing particularly dreamy tracks that rank among John's most accomplished work to date.

From the get-go, SIGNS UNDER TEST presents itself as a whole new ball of wax, reaching even further into the depths of JOHN TEJADA's hot-wired synth machinery, while cranking up the already stunning levels of musicality on display in his oeuvre. Opener TWO 0 ONE serves as a prime example for the sonic aplomb in place, thanks to its beautifully rendered melodies and finely tuned textures – a perfect storm made of cosy melancholy and celestial bliss. This expertly wrought piece serves as a particularly strong entry point for the album, setting the bar high for its successors.

An unabashedly brilliant listen, the album continues its thrilling journey with existential bleepfest Y 0 WHY and the bass-heavy BEACHT, followed by the intricately arpeggiated R.U.R. and brooding electronica vignette VAALBARA. The second part is ringed in by the undulating CRYPTOCHROME - another proof for JOHN TEJADA's uncanny ability to craft tracks that operate as distinguished bouncers as well as introspective meditations. The deliberate vivacity of connecting cuts RUBRIC and PENUMBRA only confirms the growing suspicion that this might be a timeless masterpiece we're dealing with.

As gorgeous as it sounds, texture isn't the only star here: a surprisingly diverse set of rhythm patterns suffuses the mesmerizing synth licks - take for example the multilayered ENDORPHINS effortlessly switching between straight techno stylings and vintage breakbeat ornaments. Meanwhile, electronic landscape painting MEADOW purrs away on its road to redemption, priming the listener for closing cut HEAVE IN SIGHT, an atmospherically rich composition that marries abstract storytelling with a flurry of reversed synth sounds.

„There's a bit more dreamy tape wobble going on throughout“, says the producer about his latest effort, „as I’ve gone quite analog tape with my delays and patches - on the verge of actually being broken, which gives them a nice character.“ It also might explain the air of intimacy surrounding the album - a quite personal listening experience taking the listener up close with its details and idiosyncracies, „maybe even more than before, as I’ve tried to cut out distractions and really focus on the production.“
The result is a record that is not meant to be trendy, even though it’s a product of analog hardware connoisseurship: „Everything is built from the ground up using hardware synths - mostly analog, but that’s a bit annoying to say nowadays. It’s not a record that fits in with any current stuff, but something that hopefully holds up as it ages. Something that hopefully reveals more on repeated listens.“ In our humble opinion, this mission has been more than accomplished with SIGNS UNDER TEST.

Things Like That

Artista: @mr-k-alexi
Sello: @cod3qr

El legendario sello COD3 QR, impulsado por Laurent Garnier, regresa este 23 de mayo con una selección de alto calibre, y el encargado de abrir este viaje sonoro no es otro que K' Alexi Shelby, pionero absoluto del sonido house de Chicago. Su aportación, Flame, condensa décadas de sabiduría electrónica en un corte hipnótico y profundamente sensual.

Con una línea de bajo cálida y grooves que respiran soul futurista, Flame se instala en un lugar donde el pasado clásico del house se encuentra con una visión refinada del techno emocional. Es un track que no busca complacer modas: vibra con identidad, elegancia y una tensión contenida que exige escucharse en club o en intimidad.

Con colaboraciones históricas junto a nombres como Robert Owens, Carl Craig, DJ Pierre o incluso Will Smith, el legado de K' Alexi no necesita presentación. Flame es una prueba viva de que su fuego creativo sigue encendido.

The Hiker

Desert Hike

The new Liquid Palms compilation arrives as a portrait of the diversity and energy driving today’s scene, and as a statement of the spirit that has defined the label since its inception: a community bound by a shared vision, the constant pursuit of emotion, and the freedom to explore without limits.

The V.A. gathers both rising voices and seasoned names under one creative horizon. Andrea Zarco embodies the force of Barcelona’s new wave with an energetic cut marked by her unmistakable vocal touch, while Tucan Discos – a legend of the edit world and a fixture in countless DJ sets – unveils a progressive-tinged, break-driven gem, a glimpse into the hidden arsenal that has made him such a singular digger.

The narrative deepens with Djoan, a close friend of the label and master of hypnotic acid-house journeys, and Daniel Dez, a veteran producer who delivers an introspective, emotive track that showcases the maturity of a sound in constant evolution.

Liquid Palms’ founder Breezy S reveals a more intimate side with a slow-burning, atmospheric piece blending breaks and deep house, contrasting with the high-energy releases he’s shared this year. Closing the circle, Marthes – one of Chile’s most prolific and exciting artists of the past year – contributes a luminous 90s-inspired progressive anthem, where relentless basslines and expansive pads intertwine in a hypnotic, magnetic tension.

Carefully curated and sequenced, the compilation flows through different states of mind, rewarding both attentive listening and the dancefloor. A mosaic of grooves, atmospheres, and emotions, it reflects the present and projects the future of Liquid Palms: a place where tradition, innovation, and community converge in the shape of a V.A.

The idea for this song came together in the late 90's. The words were inspired by what I was experiencing at the time. It seemed like just a repetitive phrase at first, but after listening to it several times, I realized how something little meant so much. 
When I first sent this to the Snuff Crew, they immediately replied that they were interested in it. I took the song back in the studio and gave it a slight update.  I kept the original vocal and 707/808 drums. 
I updated the Bass line and used a Juno 60 as opposed to the original Prophet 600 sound. I'm both surprised and happy as far as the amount of attention this has received. I can't thank The Snuff Crew enough for inspiring me to finish this. Also want to thank Strictly Rhythm for taking it to the next level with their Digital release.  Currently the vinyl version is the only place you can get the Acid & Instrumental mix. Also there's is an  A capella version found only on the digital release. The Ep is now available at most record stores and digital online sites. Here are a few links.

The Radio Slave remixes proved once again how timeless and adaptable Love Stimulation is. More than just a solid classic, it expanded to become deeper and more atmospheric, carrying its themes into deeper spaces while maintaining its spark. For longtime listeners, it reignited the melody and tension that defined the original for new listeners, it opened a pathway to the roots of 90s trance through a modern, refined lens.

Unknown Artist - Baby Baby Please (Original Mix)[ART001]

Lover of various types of electronic music, as well as many other genres. Here to help share great music from artists from around the world, and hopefully give them more exposure for their hard work in creating these melodic sounds, grooves, and moods.
~When we listen to music that moves us, the dopaminergic circuitry of the brain is activated, which opens the mind to wonder and exploration. In this bodily state of musical awe, we often tear up and get the chills, those embodied signs of merging with others to face mysteries and the unknown… Music breaks down the boundaries between self and other and can unite us in feelings of awe… When we listen to music with others, the great rhythms of our bodies — heartbeat, breathing, hormonal fluctuations, sexual cycles, bodily motion — once separate, merge into a synchronized pattern. We sense that we are part of something larger, a community, a pattern of energy, an idea of the times — or what we might call the sacred. ~ Dacher Keltner
