Karassimeon - Discoteca Oscura [RF016]

Following his initial dark tribute to French Touch ‘Nightmare Disco’, we are beyond excited to welcome Karassimeon’s first full-fledged EP ‘Discoteca Oscura’ on Ritmo Fatale. 

Karassimeon’s unique sound embodies his conflicting obsessions : disco, EBM and dystopian movie scores. 

The ‘Discoteca Oscura’ is his imaginary representation of a dark club, somewhere between Berlin and Hell, where soulless creatures dance to martial rhythms infused with italo, synthwave & disco. 

Cabaret Mortel blends acid beats, disco stabs and haunting synth bass sequences. Karassimeon’s intention was to bring cinematic tension to the dancefloor, using some of his favorite weapons : TB-303, breakbeat samples, Juno 106 & the evil Pro-One 

Messa Nera is Karassimeon’s Italo manifesto. Inspired by the early 80s sound, with some Moroder-esque touches, this track depicts a dystopian world, where dancers gather in black masses, away from the secular world. 

Rendez-vous comes from an early encounter with Claude Lelouch’s short film “C’était un rendez-vous” from 1976. This short has been an obsession for years, and the pandemic was the right context for Karassimeon : locked for days in his studio, studying his gear and listening to his favorite movie scores all day long. The track has been mostly produced with his oldest hardware : a MK1 Korg MS20 coupled with an overdriven RE-201 Space Echo, a dusty Oberheim DX, as well as his beloved Juno-106 and Solina. 

Most of all, this production is a tribute to the composers who often teamed up with Claude Lelouch, such as Francis Lai. 

And to wrap all this up, who else could illustrate this ode to the Giallo era better than the master Eric Adrian Lee ! 

The American artist is behind most of Giallo Disco’s artworks, the number one label who’s bringing this sound and imagery to the dancefloor. It’s a true honor for us to finally work with him on this particular release. Now the Giallo incantation is complete. Let the ritual begin.
