Having worked for years in a duo, first as 3 Channels and now as the lauded, world-touring house outfit Catz ’n Dogz, Polish producer Voitek Taranczuk’s project, Ketiov, is personal. It is about focusing on his own process and creative instincts — after all, Ketiov is Voitek in reverse. Here, he indulges his boundary-breaking impulses, crossing genres and experimenting with sound. Ketiov grew up in Poland, where as a young dj hosted parties and build his musical taste. Few years ago moved from Berlin to Madrid where he continues his journey. He is a resident at Cafe Berlin in Madrid and with his husband David Rigote, started the very successful LGBTQ+ party CARBS. Releasing tracks himself and mostly on vinyl, Ketiov has repressed his 2017 “Ketiov A/B” twice due to popular demand, and received strong feedback for “Ketiov Edits 01” (Jan 2018) and “Ketiov C/D&E” (Feb 2018). “Rhythm Trainx Vol 2,” his piece de resistance featuring huge sound and only one drummer, was released on Gerd Janson’s Running Back in May 2018.

Ketiov’s innovative rhythmic play and effortless mixing of deep house, disco, techno and 90s house have landed him Dj mixes with the infamous Honey Soundsystem, Buttons, Is Burning and dance sets at clubs all around Europe including Panorama Bar and the world at large. Ketiov believes in order to be a great collaborator, one needs to pursue their own projects alongside. Only time will tell how Voitek’s addictive sound will evolve on his own and in his powerful collaborations.

PREMIERE: Ewan Jansen - Wild Shore [R.A.N.D. Muzik]

For it's 46th outing, Klasse Wrecks recruits the Brooklyn based producer Gee Dee to it's ranks. Gee Dee aka Greg Droggitis turns in a wonderful and fully fledged collection of tracks that burst to the brim with atmosphere and sunny vibrations. True to the label's ethos, the music is as always, hard to pin down under one specific genre but instead slyly calls on various classic House, Electro and Acid tropes. The overall sound is one that is both universal and transcendent, feeling familiar but still surprising. 'Dream In Colour' is indeed an apt title for the EP as it spans the musical spectrum and is a lucid and vivid trip into the imagination of this new and exciting producer.

Growing up in the 90s in rural upper Austria, Jakobin spent his time with skateboarding and listening to lots of hip hop before witnessing the halcyon days of the Vienna downbeat era and later being introduced to Austria's club culture.
Pursuing his growing passion for collecting vinyl, he started spinning his first records in the region and later moved to the Austrian capitol. There he connected with likeminded people. Quickly getting immersed in the Viennese electronic music scene, he started producing and DJing with his long time friend Domino under the moniker Jakobin & Domino and became founding members of Luv Shack Records in 2011. After a number of successful releases he started his solo career and began working on his live setup. His growing collection of analog gear helped shaping his productions. An overview of his current sound is expressed on his new record ‚Forever More‘. Heavily influenced on 90s UK house productions this 3-track EP will activate your senses and move your body with its groovy basslines and drums, creating an irresistible rhythm.

‚Forever More‘ will come out in its digital form on September 8, 2023. And later this year on limited vinyl.

If you like your dance music to take you on a psychedelic journey through time and space, the DESERT LEATHER EP is for you.

Winding passages that explore breaks, bleeps, bass and beyond.

Genre defying influences snatched from every dimension of the dance diaspora.

Inescapable body-rocking beats that echo through your very bones so hard that even your ancestors have a boogie.

The DESERT LEATHER EP will expand your mind to the very edge of the horizon, where earth and sky meet and where all laws of nature are meaningless.

PREMIERE: Two Cold - Portal Vortex [M.A.D RECORDS]

Mark Hawkins has been a mainstay of Aus Music and the underground scene for years. He is an accomplished studio wizard who can do a dizzying array of styles with equal energy and emotion. His adaptability has kept him en vogue ever since he first emerged from the UK party scene in the 90s. He has played all over the world but now focuses on refining his production and engineering skills evermore as he follows up his recent LP on the label with this fresh new offering. ‘Open Hearted' rides on a broken beat electro rhythm with surging chords washing over you like a wave of emotion. An aloof but sensuous female vocal is a perfect hook as the kinetic drums make you move, and the psychedelic synths stay busy in the background. The equally brilliant 'Let U Fall' is a gorgeous and bright house cut with an alluring R&B vocal. There are hints of modern hip-hop production in the snappy snares and colourful synth details, while rich piano chords and driving drums are sure to sweep the dance and floor up and away.

PREMIERE : Mark Hawkins - Open Hearted

Rees landed on Bordello A Parigi with a bang. His “Three Eyes” track left dancefloors slippy and listeners wanting more. Thankfully, the Middlesborough musician only too glad to comply. Dream Wave collects three tracks that are emblematic of Rees’ enviable ability. A serial cross pollinator, genre lines are blurred before being rewritten. “A Dream Wave” melts rich basslines and muscled percussion with a daringly upbeat counter melody. Kick drums usher in “The New Beat”. Flourishes float above the thump before Rees lets loose. Acid barbs, rave shouts and Eastern echoes coalesce in this unique work. Keeping bodies moving until the very end, Rees delivers “Electric Body”. Guitar strings and incising snares collide with a hypnotic synthline that adopts elements of synth pop and full bodied techno. A record that perfectly illustrates the versatility of this style shifting artist.
