Lakker - Ever Rising (Alex Smoke remix)

http://www.mixmag.net/index.php/read/stephan-bodzin-marc-romboy-adriatique-remix-premieres

Released back in 2006, 'Atlas' has reached its ten year anniversary and what better way to celebrate than with some shiny new remixes? From one duo another, Swiss pair Adriatique have swapped DIYmanic for devilish with their new re-imagining.

They've taken the techno bruiser and turned into a twinkly builder, one that keeps intact all of the components that make the original so good. The colossal main riff is still there, creating a nice amount of dread while tones flutter innocently in the background.



Premiere: Stephan Bodzin & Marc Romboy 'Atlas (Adriatique Remix)

This spring, twenty DJ/producers from the Netherlands descended on a cottage in the north of France and converted it into a studio complex. Label heads Yellow Claw, as well as Mike Cervello, Moksi, LNY TNZ, The Galaxy, Dirtcaps, Mightyfools, FS Green, Cesqeaux, Fountain Of Youth, FS Green and Wiwek all dropped by to contribute heat.

Over seven days, in various combinations, they wrote and produced the 15 new tracks on the Barong Family Album. The album is available for stream and free download as of now. The album is preceded by a short documentary, and followed by a Barong Family world tour.

• R&S Records are proud to announce the debut release from Lost Souls of Saturn. 
• A collaboration with Lebanese indie band Mashrou’ Leila. 

Clocking in at 11 minutes, this is a radical deconstruction of the track 'Bint El Khandaq’  that appears on the Mashrou’ Leila album ‘Ibn El Leil’. Lost Souls Of Saturn tease out the underlying emotion and yearning present in the original and take the listener on a beguiling, symphonic ambient journey that calls to mind Wolfgang Voigt’s much loved Gas project, or the shimmering imaginary landscapes of Brian Eno.

Renowned for their rousing, sensual electro-pop Mashrou’ Leila’s songs touch on political freedom, LGBT rights, race, religion and modern Arabic identity.
    
Lost Souls Of Saturn were approached by the band to reinterpret the original track and the stunning results fit perfectly as their debut release on R&S.  

This is the next step in the evolution of Seth Troxler and Phil Moffa’s Lost Souls Of Saturn project.  Look out for an album on R&S in 2018.

RSMIX015 - Synkro

Japanese producer Qrion has proven herself to be a versatile and levelheaded artist. Her ability to pick cheeky elements from rivaling genres to produce R&B-steeped dance tunes leaves her in the esteemed regards of industry dons like Ryan Hemsworth, Djemba Djemba, and Slow Magic, to name a few. Now, NEST is excited to announce the release of her latest EP, Trip.

Built upon two sturdy footholds, the Trip EP is filled with lethargic melodies, frothy vocal chops, and attention-seeking percussion. The A-side "Quick Turn" is a hair-trigger, decisive and lean, while the B-side "Bring Back" drives much slower, like a 2000's Miami Beach Coupe De Ville. In full, the EP is sentimental but easygoing, just like Qrion.

Qrion - Bring Back

Released 02/03/18 - http://smarturl.it/integrity-outrage

- R&S welcome Dutch dance icon Maarten van der Vleuten back into the fold.
- ‘Outrage’ is a compilation of Maarten van der Vleuten’s Integrity project tracks, originally released on R&S sub-label Outrage Recordings in 1992, now remastered by Matt Colton
- Features collaborations with Mike Kivits (aka DJ Aardvarck).

Maarten van der Vleuten is one of the most influential figures in the Dutch scene, and also a man of many aliases - between 1987 to 2007 he racked up releases with over two dozen projects producing Detroit techno, electro, house, experimental and ambient tracks and remixes.

Still highly active and inspired in 2018, R&S see the Outrage release as a perfect opportunity to re-introduce Van der Vleuten’s masterful productions to a new generation, adding to his existing influential fans such as Optimo, Global Communication, Ellen Allien and Dave Clarke.

During the 90s he recorded mainly dance/techno for R&S Records, as Orpheus, 48V Phantom Power and Mantrax. He also memorably released on Apollo Records (check his excellent In-Existence ‘Moonwater’ album), Djax-Up-Beats, See Saw and Klang Elektronik amongst others. 

Van Der Vleuten’s ongoing collaboration with R&S founder Renaat Vanderpapeliere saw the later set up Outrage Recordings in early 1992 to release Van der Vleuten’s tracks that didn't fit on R&S Records, recording as Integrity, Zimt, Flux and Pultec. 

“Every couple of weeks i would drive up to Ghent with my new tracks and meet Renaat,” explains Martin. "We then went straight to Foon Mastering where we played the DATs and decided which tracks would be cut - i had carte blanche when it came to the 'sound' of the label. 

Van der Vleuten’s music on Outrage Recordings moved in the opposite direction of the contemporary rave and gabber scenes; while Techno became faster and shifted to a more aggressive sound, Van der Vleuten focused more on composing and arranging over danceability.  This resulted in these EP’s being difficult to sell back in 92 but listening now it feels vital and fresh well over two decades since they were recorded which is an obvious sign of 
Van Der Vleuten’s deft talent.

The release also includes Van der Vleuten’s collaborations with another dutch icon, Mike Kivits (aka DJ Aardvarck). The pair first met In 1989 when Kivits would sometimes play his demos on cassette-tapes at local clubs. The pair became fast friends and Van Der Vieuten invited Kivits into the studio where they found a natural chemistry that ultimately resulted in the tracks ‘Nightshift’ and ‘Intens’ which feature on ‘Outrage’, both written and recorded on the same day.

Studio Equipment used on this release:
Mixing console: Soundcraft Spirit Live 24
Computer: Atari 1040ST running Notator
Drum machines: Roland TR909, Roland TR707, Roland TR727, Alesis HR16
Synths / Keyboards: Roland Juno 106, Yamaha DX100, Roland D50, Ensoniq EPS

Effects Processors: Alesis Midiverb II, Boss SE-50, Ibanez DD700
