Makèz have come a long way since they first sneaked into Amsterdam’s studio 80 at the age of 17 to hand over their demos to Dam Swindle. Those demos led to their debut EP ‘Different planets’on Heist in 2019 which gained major support from artists like Seth Troxler and Chez Damier. Quickly after, they signed two records on New York based label Let’s Play House. Fast forward two years, and here we are with their debut album.
 
‘City Of All’ shows a level of sophistication and matureness, effortlessly bridging genres across its thirteen cuts. You can feel the thought that has been put into this record, with tracks blending into each other as Makèz submerge themselves in their concept of accidental encounters, inclusiveness and what it means to live in a city like Amsterdam.  
 
On this album, Makèz bring together all the musical influences they’ve picked up in their life as music fans, clubbers, and art students. The jazz-funk of opening track ‘The Entrance’, feels breezy and casual, like freeform rhythms played in a jazz club soundcheck. Energy oozes from ‘Not So Different’, featuring the smooth vocals of LYMA. There’s a hint of the house-meets-R’n B vibe that made Anderson .Paak the star that he is now. Brilliantly funky, this song shows the talent of Makèz, who cleverly use pop & soul cues to create one of the album’s highlights. 
 
What follows is four cuts ranging from the syncopated Balearic funk of ‘Orbit’, the strings of title track ‘City Of All’, the organ-led, ‘Gonna Getya’ and the downbeat ‘Sonder’. Allysha Joy, as part of Melbourne Hip Hop collective 30/70, features on the deep and jazzy ‘Looking Up’.  If Makèz and Allysha are all looking up, it’s clear they’re seeing the same thing! These kindred spirits perfectly complement each other, the deep bass, warm harmonies and jazzy percussion prove to be a perfect foundation for Allysha’s rhymes.
 
Is it an album all about jazz and soul to listen to at home? Far from it. There are dance floor-oriented tracks, where the distorted filter funk of ‘Roselane’ featuring Fouk, proves to be a highlight along with what is arguably the heaviest cut of the album ‘Bent With Funk’.
 
In an EP context, these house tracks would surely do their work, but they really come to life in this album. No compromise has been made to storytelling and the house tracks all play their part while still standing their ground in a club. 
The expert production and smart arrangement gives this collection its casually funky feel.  On ‘City Of All’ Makèz showcase their remarkable talent for writing an album that goes to so many different places, but most of all, just really feels like home.

Robert R. Hardy - Deytar [Superordinate Music]

Olivier Verhaeghe is an emerging Belgian talent who has already made his big entrance in the world of House and Disco, although he just started sharing his music with the world. He now crafts a crazy-dancing mood EP with “CALIENTE” on the Spanish label theBasementDiscos, a project that will absolutely develop his musical journey. 

“Sunny Deej” brings joy to the EP with a powerful and catchy vibe delivering great samples. Following “Cigarro” and “Drifting”, both tracks brings us a real melancholic rhythm adding some latino flavour to the EP. And last but not least, “NYC Subway Jazz” with the deepest sounds, combining a bunch of great instrumental jazzy elements. It even includes a remix by German producer Etur Usheo with his regular old school imprint. All of this tracks, inspired by jazz, old school House and Disco jams to create an awesome release for the house lovers.

"German DJ and producer Marc Brauner makes his debut with Spanish label theBasement Discos with this dreamy EP under the name of Rendezvous. Inspired by those late evening gatherings with friends, beers and good vibes, he has put together an EP that encompasses these feelings perfectly.

This EP is a product of his own experiences in the last few months in his hometown of Berlin, a result of digging into new sounds and exploring his deeper side hours at a time in his studio.

An adventure split into three cuts that entices you to relax and explore your inner self. A combination of timeless pieces that show a side of electronic music that sets itself aside from the frantic dance floor dynamic to submerge itself into other more relaxed environments.

This EP ends with an hypnotic remix by Tender games who adds his own style with some cosmic disco sounds and finishes it off with a dose of his own vocals." - theBasement Discos

RADIO ELECTRONICA was one of the first independent radio programmes to go on air in Jena in 1999. The background was to bring colour into the dreary Thuringian radio programme and to create a platform where regional and national artists from the electronic music scene could present themselves and exchange ideas. RADIO ELECTRONICA claims to be always on the trail of new influences, trends and artists in the field of electronic music.

The show quickly developed from the first pre-productions to a live broadcast, which can be heard every four weeks on Saturdays from 7pm to midnight on the open channel Jena on UKW 103.4 Mhz and via online stream (https://radio-okj.de/wp-content/themes/radiookj/okj-player.html).

With a steadily growing fan base, RADIO ELECTRONICA is still a firm institution in the field of electronic music in Jena and beyond the city limits. Besides the latest scene trends and record presentations, studio guests are a big part of the show.
