Passion

Betoko began working on "I’m a Gin" 18 months ago in the renown Red Bus Recording Studios where George Michael, Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Tina Turner, Jocelyn Brown and Imagination themselves have all recorded and where Betoko produces his work today. 
 
Betoko's idea behind "Im a Gin" was to revive the original retro-funky Imagination vibe.  "Im a Gin" contains elements of the authentic track using those same stems from the original; and produced by Betoko in the same studio where Imagination originally produced all of their tracks, they and Betoko used the same compressors, keyboards and console creating the highest sonic quality sound.

Brynjolfur
Brynjolfur - The Save EP

Faroese DJ and producer Brynjolfur is one of the leading lights of the Danish club scene, with energetic performances and a charmingly personal musical style. Having dropped the sun-drenched Chain Glass EP for Hamburg’s hafendisko at the height of the summer, he returns to the label fold once again with the shimmering disco delights of The Save EP.

"The Save" is an instant mash-up hit, combining disco cowbells and shakers, vintage house piano chords and rhythms, with the finely-tuned wispy vocals of synth pop. It hits the ground running, and build towards a big bright house breakdown that combines skilled songwriting with Brynjolfur's clubbier roots. 

"Time" takes an entirely different tack, emerging with a slow, brooding electro stomp at sultry tempo; it blossoms into instrumental track of cinematic proportions and suspense, that shifts into a cosmic-influenced beauty by the track's end.

Two sterling remixes round out the EP package, starting with a Dub Mix of "The Save" that gets it rough and ready for the dancefloor: the distinctive melody takes on a deeper unified tone, and new acid house elements get pushed to the fore; then a Kasper Bjørke remix of "Time" reworks it in the distinctive style of the deep nu-disco master, adding bright, uplifting melodies, but retaining the original track's slow, sultry tempo.

Hypnologue-Shadows move..

The “Solutions Remixes” turn engineering into music energy – three extended club edits that transform the message of resilience into pure dancefloor power. With pounding beats, hypnotic synths, and chant-like vocals, the tracks build long instrumental passages and explosive drops, designed to keep the crowd moving. More than just remixes, they’re sonic blueprints for adaptation, strength, and a future that holds the storm.

Growing the Brand - Lyrics

Verse 1
In boardrooms with coffee that costs more
than minimum wage buys in a week
We polish speeches about humanitarian aid
while our calculators count the dead
The wine stains my shirt red, like the maps


Verse 2
Who's that knocking on the cockpit door?
Someone visited the hardware store
We come with hammers because words bounce off
steel like prayer off a banker's forehead
Bang goes the hammer keeping bloody score


Chorus
It's all part of growing the brand
Clean profits from subsidised death
We call it culture, they call it murder
Growing the brand on borrowed breath


Verse 3
While logos gleam on gallery walls
breakfast tables explode in real time
Our handshakes seal tomorrow's casualties
as mothers count children who won't come home
The marble stays clean, the conscience doesn't

Chorus
It's all part of growing the brand
Clean profits from subsidised death
We call it culture, they call it murder
Growing the brand on borrowed breath

Verse 4
Arms out sideways, airstrike 1, 2, 3
At 9 AM here, it's midnight there
We're brewing coffee while they're dodging bombs
Geography of running maps itself
on playground walls and office calendars

Chorus
It's all part of growing the brand
Clean profits from subsidised death
We call it culture, they call it murder
Growing the brand on borrowed breath


Growing the Brand

Jody Wisternoff feat. Pete Josef - How You Make Me Smile (Vincenzo Remix)

Buy/Stream: https://anjunadeep.lnk.to/GBREPso

Much like the colourful cobbled streets and lush rolling hills of his hometown of Tbilisi, Georgian-native Gacha Bakradze’s music is characteristically rich, distinct, and seductive. With his previous releases on the iconic Apollo Records praised by Pitchfork and Resident Advisor, Gacha is a stalwart of the Georgian electronic scene. Previously featured on ‘Anjunadeep Explorations 02’ in 2016, Gacha now returns with his upcoming EP - ‘Restless’.

From his nuanced command of subtle arpeggio plucks, to his careful construction of sensuous atmospheres, ‘Restless’ epitomises Gacha’s in-depth musical knowledge and production skills.

Title track ‘Restless’ is a journey through syncopated sixteenths and reverberated jungle sounds, where bongos echo off a grooving sub bass. ‘Image’ is lustrous and bright, accentuating a well-rounded bassline alongside celestial plucks. The Earth Trax remixes introduce a lo-fi aesthetic, taking it back to the old school with wide sampled breaks and 303 synthlines.

The final track, ‘Contactless’, is a Balearic ballad, its meloduious arpeggios and dark drones reminiscent of retro 80’s soundtracks, deep dreams, and early-morning walks home. ‘Restless’ is released on both digital and vinyl, Friday, 29th July.

ON THEIR RETURN TO DESOLAT BARCELONA BASED MUSICIANS PULSHAR DELIVER A DELICIOUSLY DEEP AND TRIPPY EP

Following on from 2010’s critically acclaimed album ‘Inside’, Spanish duo Sergio Vidal and Pablo Bolívar aka Pulshar return to Desolat with the ‘Different Drum EP’, and all four tracks showcase the deeply hypnotic yet richly soulful sounds which the duo are synonymous with.

Opener ‘Wasting Time’ is a collaboration with Desolat label head Loco Dice. The track, which was creating during a jam session between these friends, is a deep and twisted journey, with ocean-deep sub-bass, and features Loco Dice’s own distorted vocals which echo in and out of the music.

On ‘So Tired’, Pulshar have expertly crafted a captivating rich soundscape packed full of warm textures and atmospheres. ‘Different Drum’ is a similarly engaging and uplifting track complete with soaring synths and crisp drums.

The 12” is rounded up by the standout ‘She’s Got A Ticket’, with its infectious groove, rich sounds and contagious vocal layered over its psychedelic rhythm.

On ‘Different Drum’ Pulshar have demonstrated with aplomb why over the last few years their distinctive and soulful brand of psychedelic electronic music has been turning heads and moving dancefloors. 
Enjoy!

So tired

Haunting landscapes, cinematic atmospheres and smooth vocals looping in your head forever.
