'Close friend of the label and synth magician Beatamines is back on Heinz Music with two beautiful tracks. And we are here for it!

"Prophet EP" is a great example of how niftily Beatamines navigates the waters between catchy grooves and dramatic melodies. The title track has a kind of chanty backdrop while smooth percussions bounce around playing catch with the synth elements. An odd game of catch me if you can, that draws you into this mystical soundscape.

Second track of the EP is "Grandma". A dreamy synth swipes over you before the beat kicks in. The timbre of the synth gives us the feeling you get when you watch clouds floating by on a summer day, light as a feather. It is warm, it is fuzzy, but with a powerfulness to it that keeps pulsing forwards.

Nothing less than two magnificent tracks, giving you the whole spectre of emotions needed to create intense moments of joy and freedom on the dance floor.'

Beatamines - Prophet EP

Premiere: Beatamines - Prophet [Heinz Music]

'Already an iconic figure in the underground dance fraternity, Dmitry Molosh now takes another leap forward with the creation of his Proportion record label. Created as vehicle to showcase the Belarusian’s extraordinary talent alongside an array of high-profile and rising names, Proportion launches with an eponymously titled EP with an original track from Dmitry himself plus a remix from Finnish legend, Cid Inc.

Dmitry Molosh has presided over a stellar career path. Rising rapidly to global prominence from his Belarus home, Dmitry has witnessed a steep upwards trajectory where his music has reached out across nation boundaries, engaging listeners with a distinctive, powerful and forward-thinking sound. Over 500 production credits can thus be credited to the Dmitry Molosh name as he continues to find his musical talents in considerable demand. Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music, Gai Barone’s Afterglow, Nick Warren’s Hope and Cid Inc.’s Replug have all showcased the Belarusian’s distinctive sound, while US leviathan Proton Music has also featured an array of original and remix material. Supported by the DJ glitterati that include Guy J, Guy Mantzur and Khen, alongside the celebrated label heads, Dmitry Molosh now opens his account on Proportion.

The title track of the same name is a stunning affair. Redolent in the trademark characteristics that have made him such a sought-after producer, a chest-thumping kick anchors a glorious, head-shaking bass groove and woodblock percussion. Ticking hi-hats add to the collage as a beautifully imagined synth motif filters its way across the 8-minute piece. A further bassline adds weight and dynamism before a stripped back breakdown creates a gateway for a rousing crescendo of white-noise and pitched effects. These then pave the way for the sultry bassline cadence and synth line so prominent in the early stages, to work their magic once more in the second half.

Cid Inc. require little introduction to the underground dance faithful. A legendary figure for two decades, the Finnish star has been responsible for entertaining audiences around the world with his immaculately crafted DJ sets while creating some the finest moments in modern electronic music history. Seeing his work featured on legion luminary imprints that includes the likes Lost & Found, Einmusika JEE Productions and Sudbeat Music, the latter saw Dmitry Molosh & Cid Inc. join forces on August 2021’s “Impending Storm” to devastating effect. Cid Inc.’s own Replug label has also been a potent vehicle for his own music while furthering the musical careers of a plethora of other artists who have gone on to become dominant forces in the global dance music arena.

An esteemed music engineer and renowned producer, the Cid Inc. remix of “Proportion” is characterised by an intricate and dynamic percussive groove that propels the track forward. Accompanied by a hypnotic bassline sequence and similarly mesmerising arpeggio, melodic elements for the original ripple to the fore in a sublime atmospheric collage. Smooth pads and white-noise flourishes build before falling away to a spine-tingling drop, as the rhythmic and bassline foundation provide a club-friendly closing section.'

Digital Emotions reboots and returns to activity.

Mexican duo Sotomayor return with the first single off upcoming third album Orígenes. “Quema” lets you know what it is straight-away: the “chuck-chucka-chuck” rhythm of the scraper (guira), the rising bass line, the keyboard that appears to be sending out an alarm signal. This is clearly cumbia, but it isn’t recognisable for long. A pounding bass line takes over, a beat is set and then Paulina Sotomayor’s voice enters, guiding the track. At first she is slow, assured, but then the chorus hits and there’s a release, a soulful higher-pitched melody as new synth lines bubble below. Elements of that original cumbia beat return in new ways, adding urgency, rhythm and detail, as the song continues to reinvent itself and play with ideas of what global bass and cumbia should sound like, all the while giving full focus to the song itself, to telling its story. The cherry on top is the guest appearance of Totin “Arará” Agosto, one of Puerto Rico’s most loved singers and composers, and a man pivotal in putting Puerto Rican bomba back on the map. He adds joyful second vocals, seemingly losing himself in the music. His presence is a reminder that the musica callejera (street music) he plays does not have to be so different to club music. This is music to dance to, to revel, to telegraph delight.

On “Quema”, as on the rest of Orígenes, Sotomayor perform Latinx electronic music that is as bold, thrilling and alive as any street party, with a strong sense of roots or tradition. Yet it is also music that is defined by the duo’s qualities as songwriters, with a clear knack for melody and dynamics that add a sense of rock ‘n’ roll urgency. They are aided on the album by co-producer Eduardo Cabra (“Visitante” of the much-missed Puerto Rican rebel rousers Calle 13), who has recently helped push Latin singer/songwriters like Jorge Drexler, iLe and Vincent Garcia into making ground-breaking fusions of Latin tradition and modern musical forms, and won two Latin Grammy Producer of the Year awards in the process. The trick appears to have been rung once more. Sotomayor are creating their own unique musical universe, fuelled by the sounds of Latin America’s clubs and streets, with a level of songcraft and production know-how that only seems to keep on growing.

Sotomayor are the brother/sister duo of Raul and Paulina Sotomayor. They formed in 2015 after years of activity in Mexico City’s emerging indie scene, playing in bands such as Jefes del Desierto and Beat Buffet. Orígenes is their third album following Salvaje (2015) and Conquistador (2017).

Orígenes will be released by Wonderwheel Recordings in February 2020.

"Extraordinary Sounds"

"In 2017, music enthusiast and entrepreneur M. Kayhan Yakarlar (Majnoon/KhaiKhan), also the founder of Rist Istanbul, established Rist Records, imprinting its unique identity on the world of music. The fundamental principle of the company was to celebrate the universality of music by bringing together the sounds of diverse cultures from around the globe and introducing them to the global market.

The motto of Rist Records was coined as, "Wherever in the world, uniting artists who use the sounds of their own regions on this platform and making their voices heard in the global market." This mission goes beyond being just a commercial entity, emphasizing cultural diversity and the unifying power of music.

The company particularly adopts an open attitude towards experimental music, providing its artists with the freedom to express themselves without limitations. Rist Records allows its artists to push the boundaries of musical creativity and offer unexpected experiences to their audience, contributing to the expansion of the limits of music.

Under the leadership of Majnoon/KhaiKhan, Rist Records sees music not only as an art form but also as a unifying language, creating an intercultural bridge. In addition to offering global recognition opportunities to its artists, the company promotes local sounds on a global platform, transforming music into a universal experience.

By embracing various genres, especially experimental music, Rist Records continues to provide music lovers with the opportunity to discover and experience the sounds of different cultures. With its growing family, Rist Records persists as a brand that pushes the boundaries of music, celebrates diversity, and advocates for universality.
