Bawrut - Alfredo And Ricardo Brought Me Here

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.

So It Goes EP

Chez de Milo - Durga Lesson [R$N34]

The mighty Bawrut returns to Ransom Note Records with his incredible new record, Raqs EP. The follow up to his debut album on R$N, In The Middle, Our Man In Madrid discharges four weapons grade club monsters that will, as the title suggests, have have bodies moving to and fro the world over. 

In Bawrut’s own words: “Raqs means dance or dancing in Arabic. The need for dance in our society and it’s act of liberation is the focus of this new EP, where I explore a beloved place like the Mediterranean sea, mixing Arabic voices and Latin American rhythms, stabs, trance and flamenco.”

First single Que Quiere Usted wastes no time, entering the fray with a frantic clap assault that grows and evolves throughout the track, augmented by Bawrut’s trademark sparse, bouncy, synth lines. Hot on its heels, Draa Valley is a more understood affair, taking aim firmly at the dance floor. All driving drums and hooky vocal samples, it darts high and low before settling into that air-fist-punching final drop. 

Azadi shows yet another side to our Bozza, this time treating us to a mechanical funk workout of epic proportions. It’s angular stabs are thoroughly danceable, punctuated by some vaguely human (but definitely robotic) vocals that lift us towards mechanised heaven. Sonidero Usera closes proceedings with a more organic feel, opening with rainforest sounds interspersed with tribal drum patterns and cut up vocal stabs, which develops into a pummelling groove that is, quite literally, all singing, all dancing!

Following up on the runaway success of his Dream The Dream compilation, Richard Sen returns with a dance floor focussed interpretation of Mind Over Rhythm - Kubital Footstorm.  In his own words: “This is a progressive breakbeat version and I tried to keep the original 90s vibe to it, but add my own personality. Because there were no separate parts available to use, I had to take samples of audio from the finished original. I added my own synth sounds and drums so it became a proper remix, rather than just edits.”
Dropping just in time for festival season, this dance floor stomper is undoubtedly going too soundtrack the summer!

Mind Over Rhythm - Kubital Footstorm (Richard Sen Remix)

Following up on the runaway success of his Dream The Dream compilation, Richard Sen returns with three dance floor focussed interpretations of tracks from the record. 

In his own words: “With the remixes, I took 3 quite different styled tracks, UVX (trance), Bandulu (percussive ambient) and Mind Over Rhythm (progressive breakbeat) and tried to keep the original 90s vibe to them but add my own personality. 

Because there were no separate parts available to use, I had to take samples of audio from the finished originals. I added my own synth sounds and drums where necessary so they became remixes, rather than just edits.”

Dropping just in time for festival season, these variations are undoubtedly going too sound track the summer!

C.A.R. - Random Words

Only one week to wait until the Mother of Mars remix EP! Six brand new versions designed to pull the epic kosmische drift of 'Seed 2 Sky' into some strange shapes.

Today we're premiering a remix by @esso-ess - the recording project composed of Chris Stoker [Bad Passion] and the excellent Jamie Blanco who's released for the likes of Futureboogie. Their version of 'Seed 2 Sky' takes its inspiration from the warmth and throb of Kraftwerk’s motorway music and reimagines it set in the stars, creating a pulsating mix that’s best heard while travelling the vast arteries of an unknown life form.

If you've never heard of @annalann before, consider this your long-overdue introduction. The Latvian-born, Tel Aviv-based artist makes wildly experimental pop that's heavily informed by underground dance music. So naturally we saw fit to pair her up with R$N Records star @c_a_r for a special release...

Today we're putting out a 'Cholera Reinterpretations' package, which features Anna taking on her favourite track from C.A.R.'s new album 'PINNED'. And what's more, you can download both remixes for free via the link above. Don't say we're not good to you!

The 'Runway Edition' plays host to Anna's own vocals, and was recently featured as the soundtrack to Gal Shenfeld's spring/summer collection 'Heroes' at Tel Aviv Fashion Week 2018.

Anna is also a talented director and visual artist, and we're looking forward to working together on some exciting releases later in the year. Stay locked for more details.

Bawrut - I Hear Voices

Back in February, @c_a_r aka Chloé Raunet released her second album to huge acclaim from the likes of DJ Mag, Resident Advisor and Trax Magazine. With Raunet taking on the mantle of producer, singer and songwriter, 'PINNED' refined her palette of glimmering electronics and post-punk angles over 11 tracks of hazy, claustrophobic synth pop. 

Chloé has been hard at work on the follow-up ever since, and we’re delighted to be putting out her third album next year. Before we get ahead of ourselves though, there’s a special Xmas treat in the form of the final single to be taken from 'PINNED'. Possibly our favourite track on the album, ‘Flat Out at the Sockhop’ has been one of the highlights of the C.A.R. live show this year, and now it gets the much-deserved video treatment. 

The B-side is a new track, one of C.A.R.’s most desolate synth landscapes. “‘All But…’ was written on a long winter night towards the end of the year”, Chloé explains. “’Tis the season of over-indulgent emotions - counter-festive, brooding & melancholic. Woolly and woven, strings pluck and pull their way through a druggy fabric, all overlaid with dreamy, musing vocals.” 

Even the harshest winter eventually comes to pass, and the ice finally thaws with @manfredas' rather special dancefloor remix of ‘Daughters’ - a perfect aural representation of losing yourself in pulsing colours and beams of light.

Timothy Clerkin - Unborn
Out 24th May 2019

Label linchpin @timothyclerkin returns to Ransom Note Records with the 'Unborn' EP, home to four brand spanking new rave bangers!

The first track to be unleashed is ‘Primary Function’, which sounds like a dubbed-out Boards of Canada on a particularly warped mushroom trip.

Timothy’s music has brought us many special moments over the past few summers and seems bound to do so again, with the new EP already getting played by the likes of Optimo, Lena Willikens and Andrew Weatherall.

After cutting his teeth as one half of Eskimo Twins, Clerkin launched his solo career in 2014 under the now-retired Heretic moniker. Having released on labels including Throne of Blood, Hard Fist and Tusk Wax, he’s since graduated to running his own Insult To Injury imprint from his new base in Amsterdam.
