Rising UK duo Mia Mendi returns for their second outing on Watergate Records with the retro-tinged Robosynapse EP.
 
The label debut of Mia Mendi was a notable 2021 highlight for the Oberbaumbrücke imprint. Titled 'Ubi’, the EP was a collaboration with Thomas Gandey and demonstrated their full-bodied dancefloor approach, injecting their unique sound signature into a modern progressive house palette.
 
‘Robosynapse’ is no less exciting (or fun). The title track is a plump nu wave houser, driven by soaring retro synths, a gutsy electro bassline and an 80s guitar solo. ‘Simulated Reality’ buzzes and hums, seven minutes of emotional electro and crispy drumlines, before handing the baton to ‘Cyborg String’, which continues the dreamy throwdown.
 
Alan Dixon makes his first contribution to Watergate Records and re-fashions ‘Robosynapse’ into a glistening cosmic-tinged beast, amplifying the focus on the guitar lead. Fresh off her label debut with the excellent ‘Mind Control’ EP, Henri Bergmann makes a welcome return to re-work ‘Simulated Reality’ into a powerful melodic gem, heightening the focus on the synths. An added bonus to the pack, Musumeci delivers a supreme chugging re-work of ‘Ubi’. Game on!

Double Drop, Xabizo - Bendingayazi 
 
 
Villahangar's realease for autumn 22 continue: the label releases "Bendingayazi", the new track by the emerging African artist Double Drop together with the artist, new musical promise, Xabizo. 
 
A happy return for Villahangar: in 2020 Double Drop participated in the Various Artists [#UNDERWATER] of the label released in October creating "Nguvu", an openly Afro track with killer dancefloor grooves and a very particular use of sound. 
 
For Double Drop, born Adérito do Rosário Inácio Bucuane, born in Maputo, Mozambique, in 1992, the adventure in the artistic path began in 2006 thanks to productions in genres such as Hip-Hop and R'N'B. 
In 2015 he wrote his first song under the sign of House, entitled "Riddick", by Theory of Groove Records: a national success not only for its genre of reference, as the most downloaded track for three months according to "Mais" and "Music Crib", a major national magazine and the most important digital music site in Mozambique. 
Later, Double Drop with his genius continued with releases on labels such as Labels Lupara Records (ESP), Aaron Jackson Audiophile XXL's Label America from their single "Gangsta", Audio Rehab (UK), Bodhi Records (US), Build It Records (USA), Gangsta House Rowdy (Russia), First Edition (USA) and White Widow (Poland). But also, many internationally relevant such as Afrocentric, MoBlack, Transa Records.  
His tracks have been played in the world by DJs such as Kolombo, San Shiba, Beatangers, Aaron Jackson, Mark Radford, Marc Spence, Nytron, Wasabi, Nappi. 
Nytron do Brasil, one of the most famous House Music artists in terms of Beatport sales, wanted him for a collaboration on a track to be published on Tropical Heat (Greece). 
A personal direction his, unpredictable and mysterious: passed through Hip Hop, R'N'B, Nudisco, Bass House, Tech House, Techno, today he stands out under the sign of Afro House, which reflects his positive and distinctly dense with humanity nature: coming into contact over time with many genres, for him an indissoluble artistic and creative heritage, his is a contagious sound, warm and without limits regarding creativity and fusion of styles.   
In 2018 he took a break from music, but in 2020 he returned with new creative sap, riding the evolution of the times but always tied to his roots, and he has recently released on MoBlack Records as well as two EPs: Hoyo Hoyo on WAYU, more organic, and another, Dawa on Go Deeva Records, more inclined to afro-tech. 
For the future he has in store a song in collaboration with the South African artist Vuyani that will be part of a compilation on DJ Chus' Redolent label, as well as a single that will be released on Ocha Records with the participation of his colleague Arisis. 
Joining other talented young producers at home, he decided to create his own label Xibalo, Mozambique's promising reference project that has earned a place on the international Afro scene. 
 
For his new track "Bendingayazi" made in collaboration with the artist Xabizo, great musical promise, - which title comes from 'babalaza', as the hangovers in Mozambique and South Africa are called, which later became 'Bindigaize', dizzy - he chose afrobeat sounds, exploring new boundaries and getting involved. 
And he was inspired by "Tenet", the highly acclaimed film directed by Christopher Nolan: acting in reverse just like in the film where the actions take place backwards in time, he manipulated the sample of song of the soundtrack with the same fascinating inspiration.

Bendingayazi

Bendingayazi (Leo Guardo Remix)

Being able to create and release music is a beautiful privilege to have. Keeping an eagle-eyed focus on the socials, the charts, and the artist dashboards to see how a release is doing can be highly energizing. However, I found over the last couple of months that it can also create a negative form of pressure. Even though I told myself not to let myself be influenced by the numbers, I still try to make the next release better than the last one. To get more streams, more chart positions, more views. 
It doesn’t help that my social feed is filled with all these “get a million streams on Spotify” videos ;)

Anyway, it is the single reason I failed my promise to release a track every month of the year. I keep falling into a second-guessing mode that stops me from completing a song. Stupid, and I am stopping it right now!

So, I wrote a little song about it!

Under Pressure is a driving melodic techno track with the quirky synth parts you have come to expect from me. The vocal provides a bit of meaning to the matter above. What I take away from it is that there really is ‘no more time’ to second-guess oneself. Just get on with it. Let your creativity flow, and don’t mind the numbers. In the end, it’s an art form, and art can’t be quantified. 

How’s that for a sales pitch? ;) Now go ahead and stream, like, subscribe, follow and download ;)
