This is maybe the best song I ever heard in my life. A melody that makes you feel all the senses. Wow!

This is easily the best track this year. Absolutely beautiful!

absolutely prayer inducing etherealness.. thank you for such beautiful, powerful music. I love the vocals very much too!

I like this track more each time I listen to it. 

The lyrics sound like it's about Palestine.

Where to find Maarten?

The latest house duo to emerge from the Parisian underground bid us bonjour with this stellar debut on Dialect, fusing retroist 80s leanings with brain mulching techno voodoo. Title track ‘Scandale’ and ‘Lame De Fond’ share the same pulsing sequenced heart, transplanted from Carpenter soundtracks and Italo disco classics and then zapped with a thousand volts of warped, detuned and malfunctioning synthesizer electricity. ‘El Topo’ replaces the bristling sequences with a spiky post punk snarl courtesy of live guitars, bass and organ (a la Suicide no less) but retains the twisted electronics for a woozy half time experiment in dancefloor psychedelia. Essential for fans of Joakim, Ivan Smagghe and early Gesaffelstein productions.

It is like a voyage of discovery into unknown lands, seeking not for new territory but for new knowledge. It should appeal to those with a good sense of adventure.

PREMIERE : Komodo Kolektif - Disciple Of The Dub (GK Machine Version)

Okokon returns to Other People with his sophomore album, 'Offering', delving deeper into the lush and cinematic soundscapes he first explored on his debut album, 'Turkson Side'. While primarily working in visual arts, Africanus Okokon, who records under his surname, bridges his artistic practices in 'Offering', using his masterful collage techniques to create his most personal work yet. Defying easy categorization, the album melds influences from dream pop, avant-garde folk, psychedelia, trip hop, and dub, with traces of field recordings seamlessly blended throughout to form a cohesive whole.

'Offering' sees Okokon confronting and negotiating a sudden and unexplained death that occurred in his childhood and the complex emotions left in its aftermath, acting as his main inspiration when making the album. This ambiguity is something that permeates throughout, with Okokon wanting to explore the ambivalence and sometimes uneasiness of contradicting emotions appearing simultaneously, alluded to in the album title. This is also reflected in how the album tracks each inhabit different narrators with varying perspectives on the same events. The result being a hauntingly beautiful album, with recurring themes of death, growth, sacrifice and spirituality ever present.

• 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.

R&S Records Mix Series

RSMIX015 - Synkro

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

Serenades Podcast #80 - Morze

Ce soir, déploiement d’une mixtape composée par Sophie du Palais, un exercice tout spécial pour elle puisqu’il s’agit du tout premier mix qu’elle produit, loin d’être DJ, elle est surtout chanteuse et pose sa voix sur ces compositions fétiches.

Pour ce tout premier mix, taillé pour la radio, elle s’amuse à entremêler des musiques fortement aimées et beaucoup écoutées ces derniers temps, tordant les BPM et les voix.
En introduction, lecture d’un tout petit texte en anglais par Sophie elle-même, comme une note pour toujours… 
Attention, ça commence.
And please remember
we're all the same, equal in this place
no matter the gender, the look, the race
together for some better
instead of sorrow a smile on the face. 
Enjoy and if you can’t love yourself how in the hell you gonna love somebody else
