19.10.2023

A very versatile EP brought to us by Ali x Ximena from the Mexican label Controlla in co-production with Rimada Bros. and Fausto, with 2 originals that have partying in their DNA. To give color to this great EP, from Argentina, the Cordovan duo She Teiks gives its touch and flavor to TikkiTaka, also covered and remixed by Cu Da Curuxa with an Acid label, which opens the range of the release.

SPÆCIAL PREMIERE: Ali X Ximena - TikkiTaka (Cu Da Curuxa Remix) [LOGIA]

Duro is pleased to present "Muy Divas," a compilation curated by international Mexican tastemaker Mystery Affair. Celebrating diversity and freedom, this 8-track glorious journey includes music by the talented bandolero Villaseñor, the Chilean and Madrid-based Fernanda Arrau, the French Mala Ika, the duo Brolorizo, Argentina's InVertida, the Mexican SÜSS, and the mighty and unique Hard Ton & Urvin June ft. Lilly Escuelita.

Mala Ika amazed us with "Yumis Kopfstoß," a dynamic and turbine-geared trance driver featuring an electrifying bassline and sparkling melodies that twinkle like bulbs in the ceiling. On the other hand, Brolorizo slows down the tempo with "Leave Me Alone," a lush and playful track with a solid bassline and haunting chords that intertwine with delicate vocals, enveloping you in a soft silk you can't escape from

Among the shining stars of Mexico, where peyote blossoms and psychedelics beckon with their crystalline wave, there exists a world imprisoned in a mysterious state called Mexicoma. It is a place where corruption and drug cartels entwine like black threads, weaving an intricate trap for souls yearning to find an escape from this tangled reality.

In Mexicoma, money shines like radiant pearls, alluring and tempting, but its value is elusive for all. And the music here is infused with the rhythms of street dances, where hearts beat like fire in every chest that dares to dance to its enchanting melody.

Mexicoma is not merely a state, but a true challenge, a daunting task of choosing between enlightenment and death. It mockingly laughs in the face of those who attempt to escape its snare without grasping the essence of the process itself. 

So dance on the streets, boldly and shamelessly, feel the rhythm that permeates life, and may Mexicoma open the doors to the light. For it is a state from which only enlightenment leads to higher realms, where history becomes wiser and deeper, and life itself becomes a true gift of clarity.

London-based style master Hardt Antoine joins the TAU family for our latest audio excursion. The talented founder of record label and party brand Reculture is of French and West Indian descent, and he brings a unique blend of influences to the musical arena. His diverse tastes are channelled into which he refers to as “sexy evolving melodies over deep, dark techno grooves”. With release on Innervisions, Kompakt and Exit Strategy, Antoine has demonstrated his production prowess at the highest level. Now landing on TAU with his first full EP for us, the debonair producer continues to build a sterling rep, while gracing dance floors with the perfect balance of contagious rhythms and emotive arrangements...

Many People kicks off with ‘Many People Dem’, a morose cut with a grumbling low end and the rat-a-tat-tat of organic sounding percussion. The atmosphere builds steadily, with numerous elements added to amplify the growing tension. A simple yet mesmerizing melody leads us into the breakdown, where a male vocal appears. We then drop into the second half, with more of the same exquisite programming.

Up next, TAU bosses Adana Twins bring their own flavors to the pot, cooking up a delicious rework of ‘Many People Dem’. Their retrofuturist take on the track pumps it full of optimism, with a glittering melody and upbeat rhythms. The vocal gets put through a FX machine, and the breakdown will transport you into the outer regions of space. Are you ready for take off?

Then we have ‘Oktagon’, a brooding cut that feels taut and insular when it first opens up. As the track progresses, soothing pad work adds depth and emotion. Delicate build up is utilized skillfully as Hardt Antoine adds more and more layers, until the track is ready to pop around the two and a half minute mark. From that moment, it’s a sonic adventure, with a symphony of synthesisers and beats taking us on a ride into the unknown. What we do know is that, wherever we’re going, it feels oh so good to be traveling there...

Finally, ‘NoName’ closes the EP. Hardt once again shows off his flair for drum programming on this cut, with distinct rhythmic expression throughout. This cut feels a little more laid back than the others, meandering along with a hypnotic melody and its unusual arrangement adding character. It’s organic techno with a confident outlook and a meaningful impact. 

Freshness all round here from Hardt Antoine, as TAU continues to deliver electronic music with soul, groove and originality all the way... Magnifique.

We are happy to welcome UK-based artist KMBN (@feelthedrive) to the catalog. We have been appreciating his work over the years and are thrilled to have him on board. “Never Wanted to Dance” offers 4 original tracks reminiscent of the spirit and energy of the New Beat and Electro sound we all love.

The title track “Never Wanted to Dance” lures you in with slow darkwave synth arpeggiation, along with haunting vocals from Sean Goldring.
“IDrank” embarks on a countdown to synth module frenzy, perfect for peak-time debauchery.
Next up is “Some Scary Entity Thing,” which pays homage to a Belgium New Beat anthem. The seductive acid synth line will make you want to lose yourself in this future classic.
“Waiting for You,” an electro-hysteric track with dystopian vocals, closes out the release.

“Never Wanted To Dance” is out on July 14th, 2023.

“I think it’s a ‘classic’ Perel mix – an eclectic approach to dance music that’s not genre-oriented, just following vibes."

This was the message that accompanied our latest Crack Mix, from DJ, producer and vocalist Perel. We thought it made sense to start our own description with this short note, given what it reveals about both Perel as an artist, and the journey she’s taken thus far.

Riotvan is thrilled to announce the latest installment of the "Familiar Faces” series, with label bosses Panthera Krause and Peter Invasion once again opening their arms and welcoming an exceptional group of friends. Some familiar faces return, while others make a glorious Riotvan debut. Originally conceived as a four-track release, in line with previous installments, the project took on a life of its own as the incredible music continued to flow in. 

Today, we are delighted to present "Familiar Faces IV," an eight-track selection that showcases the freshest and most diverse sounds from a group of our incredibly talented friends. Riotvan regulars https://soundcloud.com/shubostar, https://soundcloud.com/newhook, and https://soundcloud.com/sexylazer & https://soundcloud.com/schoolofx, invite listeners on their journey exploring deep, punky, and cinematic soundscapes, while our Belgian buddy, https://soundcloud.com/dc-salas, takes a deep dive into the acidic depths. From across the pond, we welcome a cosmic queen in, https://soundcloud.com/tony-mukke, and one of our favourite Mexican amigos, https://soundcloud.com/muftimx. Both new members of our clan. Our greatest gathering to date wouldn't be complete without the familiar faces of https://soundcloud.com/peter-invasion & https://soundcloud.com/gregor-habicht, who treat us to an exciting sci-fi soundtrack, before the Italian connection of https://soundcloud.com/amarcordmusic & https://soundcloud.com/speaking_minds add a blissful beauty to close the collection. 

Familiar Faces IV is a musical family reunion like no other, where friends from all corners of the world come together to create a
harmonious symphony of sound.
