Datasal - Observatoriet

Ransom Note Recs. welcomes back Belfast producer Lunar Orbit Rendezvous (aka Gregory Ferguson) for a stellar revisit of the title track ‘Faith/Reason’ of his 2021 album. The textured landscape and ambient tapestry of ‘Faith/Reason’ are passed onto producer pals Fred und Luna, Yoann Pistermann and Flug 8, who were able to take the track through adventures of sonic intricacy and bewitching music production.

Kicking off is Fred und Luna’s hypnotic remix featuring Loreli Faso Lhatido’s voice. Fred und Luna (aka Rainer Buchmüller) “are two mannequins living in a fashion boutique in Karlsruhe, Germany. On live shows they are represented by Sugar Ray Buckmiller as Fred… and an always-changing Luna of his choice” (RA). Under the Fred und Luna alias, Rainer produces his trademark ‘eargasmic’ Elektrokraut/Krautelektro (as he describes it himself), made of repetitive rhythms blended with ambient soundscapes and ethereal melodies alongside some traditionally inspired Krautrock. Just like the words “Faith, Reason” fluctuating in a chuggy limbo of ambient suspense and repetitive bass guitar strings.

Next up, French-born Berlin-based multi-disciplinary artist Yoann Pisterman takes Faith/Reason through to celestial gardens of zen. The interweaving of drones and melodic elements, loops, and repetitive patterns, makes up the key traits of Yoann’s magical transportive sound that echoes a lot with Japanese ambient and New Age music of the 80s. This remix slows things down to invite the listener to linger at last.

Focus track and closer is Flug 8 (aka Daniel Herrmann)’s remix – a completing enhancer of the EP’s sonic direction. Flug 8’s upbeat driving ‘space’ techno cradles like a lullaby at dawn. Swirling melodies accompany the soaring drum kicks, swirling in infinite synths of hope and void. Indeed, Daniel’s unique soundscapes are dreamy additions to Lunar Orbit Rendezvous’s remixed work.

Exclusive: Jacob Korn - Relentless

As part of Sneaker's Give 'n' Take 2 Dresden synth- and sound-wizard Jacob Korn contributes his track Relentless to the five-tracker of his buddy's conglomerate of favorite tracks, his first solo release since 2018. Relentless is a typical JK-track - an unagitated propellent piece with a melodic note and several bassline intermezzi keeping the track rolling, the crowd moving and proves why Jacob's been at the top of his game for so long. 

Sneaker's Give 'n' Take 2 is out via Uncanny Valley.

And these HSDJ dials hit you into a stripped naked sample of Nigerian-Swedish DJ-dentist-mainstream-star Dr. Alban
and his Eurotrash-90s-Pophouse-anthem “No Hash Hash, No Cocaine”. This is for sure no “Ottonormal”-90s-revival thing!

PREMIERE : Tassilo Vanhöfen - Kashmir

Following the success of Mexican sensation Iñigo Vontier’s “Dune Dune” EP, which Optimo Music released in early 2021, exactly two years later we are delighted to release a follow up EP by him. "Setsi" has been thoroughly road tested these last few months and comes with an Optimo Music dancefloor guarantee. We asked Iñigo to tell us a little about this release -


"Setsi" is an EP that comes from experimentation with samples and the idea of keeping things simple but memorable. The track "Setsi" starts the EP and is groovy and loopy keeping a mood all through while weird synths and cowbells come in to add flavour to the journey. Next we have "Weirdo" which takes the synths to a next level while still keeping the groove smooth. "Mental Letal" keeps those weird synths going and makes for a mental progressive anthem for the dancefloor. To finish, the EP we have "Oh Yeah" with a funky deep bass, hypnotic synths and vocals that recall Yello in a way.

Out on Optimo Music Digital Danceforce on January 20th 2023.

PREMIERE: Anatolian Weapons - Martin's Tune [Playground Records]

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/marekkubalamusic, https://soundcloud.com/mytronmusic
Track: Ramjam
Label: https://soundcloud.com/shorediverecords
Format: Digital, EP
Release date: OUT NOW

Eclectic East London-based artist Marek Kubala enjoys experimenting in different styles, including folk, indie-pop, shoegaze and post-punk. Hailing from Huddersfield, Yorkshire, Marek has received critical acclaim over the past 18 months, with releases on Outpost and EMI Publishing (KPM), and featured on BBC Introducing, Mystic Sons, CLOUT, Americana UK, Amazing Radio, amongst others.
Most recently, Marek's alt-pop belter 'Fault Lines' appeared on hit BBC1 comedy show 'Cheaters' (Clerkenwell Films), broadcast in February 2022, sharing the soundtrack with the likes of Metronomy , Jungle, Biig Piig and Holy Fuck.
Marek's debut EP 'Awhile', fused the progressive electronics of Air with the acoustic subtleties of Elliot Smith and Nick Drake. The followup single 'Fault Lines' marked a change in direction, with Marek adopting a more upbeat lo-fi indie sound with quirky electronics thrown in.
'Ramjam' is an energetic punky belter of a track - or more like three separate songs merged into one - with echoes of Ariel Pink and Nirvana. Distorted guitars, electronic drums and Marek's gnarly vocal create a compelling, aggressive momentum which hardly lets up for 2 minutes 40 seconds. Marek says: "The lyrics are actually about a very famous partnership in popular music history, particularly when things weren't so good between the two of them. I was thinking about it a lot at one point. There's a few clues in the lyrics for those in the know".
The EP also contains one original track two club remixes one of out choise 'Ramjam' by Mytron (Multi Culti, Les Yeux Orange, Razor N Tape) lets loose with a characteristic slow-burning psychedelic quirky house mix, with hints of krautrock. Newcomer Telegrafix provides a fun eclectic nu-electroclash remix, with echoes of early Soulwax, the DFA imprint and Donna Summer.
