NOTICE : this is a FILE PREVIEW FOR LISTENING ONLY (128kbit - 24000 kHz sample rate- Mono)
We are really happy to present the first volume of our new compilation serie " My View Of the Room" where one of our beloved artists revisit the catalogue, selects his favorites and serves them "rolled" in a very personal dj mix, offered as bonus.
The man opening the serie is Ludovic Llorca aka Art Of Tones, who impressed everyone this year with his successful " The World As I Live It EP", literally played by everyone from Jimpster to Joey Negro still months after its release.
Ludovic didn't fear to explore every corner of the large RWAV catalogue and focussed on 16 jewels courtesy of Dairmount &amp; Berardi, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Sasse, Joel Alter, Marlow, Sygaire, Honesty or André Lodemann besides his own hit The World As I Live It and a brand new exclusive new tune named The Void Between Us.
And as Frenchmen like to me it hot for the gourmets amongst you, he combined all tracks in one hour sound odyssey. More than a classic dj mix, Ludovic reached a complex &amp; musical energetic sound trip using separated elements of each track, displaying beautifully what makes the RWAV sound so unique &amp; homogenic at the same time.
The compilation includes 17 tracks plus the one hour bonus mix displayed here.

It is a genuine pleasure for me to open 2010 with a solo release of my close friend & studio partner MARINO BERARDI, as I got the chance to follow his musical path for more than a decade now…
Many dj’s graced us of overwhelming feedback about our recent common output as DAIRMOUNT & BERARDI in 2009 but very few people know that Marino was one of the very first European producers to appear on prestigious American labels such as Francois Kevorkian’s Wave Music or Josh Wink’s Ovum…

In the fast moving scenes of today, Marino could appear as a “veteran” with more than 15 years of djing & production under his belt and he looks firmly firmly ready to push things forward in 2010.
Best Intention is one of these special joints that seem made to spice up your sets for the right moment. At the intersection of quirky Deep House & Dub Techno boundaries, the track reveals the underlying power of dusty samples to create an 11 minutes hypnosis that will surprise you by its uplifting virtues.
I fell in love instantly with the track the first time Marino played me the demo version and I knew that it would become a very unique dancefloor moment for the ones among us liking it dirty, moody & dubby.

It is always very important to provide interesting “perspectives” of an exciting original work and the 2 gentlemen that reworked Best Intention didn’t fail to deliver excellent personal versions.
DAVE PEZZNER, the Seattle sound wizard recognised for his work on Freerange, OM Records or Ghostly International, signed what he declared himself as ” one of his most intimate re-interpretations to date”. For me, this amazing 10 minutes version is close to the fantasy of a late night lullaby that could have been composed collectively by Steve Reich, Morgan Geist & Charles Webster.
The second perspective is coming courtesy of CHRISTO, a new talent from Derby, discovered by Atjazz. The man is planned for promising things this year with a release on RWAV and the launch of his own Superficially Deep imprint very soon.
His version remains closer of the spirit of the original while giving it a warm techy edge.

Art Of Tones Presents My View Of The Room

Marino Berardi / Best Intention (Pezzner Perspective)

Mastered version of the first EP of Honesty coming end of april / early may...

Honesty / Bleepme / Main mix

THIS IS THE DIGITAL VERSION OF THIS EP (also available as a 2 tracks Vinyl Sampler)
  AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON TRAXSOURCE.COM STARTING ON WEDNESDAY 18/3
  AVAILABLE ON ALL DIGITAL STORES STARTING ON FRIDAY 3/4
  
  We are proud to present you our very first release coming as part of the seasonal serie PERSPECTIVES which will introduce you to some core artists of our roster through exclusive tracks & samples of our forthcoming releases. PERSPECTIVES 01 kicks off in style with a very unexpected track by Deep House veteran ABACUS, known for his classics on Chicago‘s Guidance in the 90‘s. This dark & dubby rollercoaster has been in our dj sets for a long time and it has confi rmed many times to be an outstanding track judging by crowds reactions. Crossing the lines between House & Techno territories, it represents proudly our label‘s motto…
  
  For the ones that witnessed already smoky & dirty intimate clubs back in the days, this one is for you : German sound wizard MARLOW, known for releases on Moon Harbour, Konsequenz & soon on Dennis Ferrer‘s Objektivity, offer you Fonk, a raw moody House odyssey loaded of Jazz & Funk samples carrying an early House vibe reminiscent of Lil‘ Louis & the Detroit school of Kenny Dixon Jr. Perfect to set up a special climax on the floors… A retro futuristic approach is also displayed in the rumbling Bass-Ment Tale by label honcho Dairmount & his partner in crime Marino Berardi, noticed for his early releases on Ovum & Wave Music some years back. DAIRMOUNT & BERARDI deliberately wanted to bring their own persperctive on Hip Hop esthetics once pioneered by people such as DJ Duke, Pal Joey or Kenny Dope. House music as you don‘t hear very often anymore…
  
  The next 2 tracks are belonging to some of our forthcoming releases and we couldn‘t wait to share them with you as a promise of things to come : Jazzanova‘s own Roskow has „cooked“ a wonderful EP for the label under his solo moniker SYGAIRE and we are uncovering here the blasting Deep House remix of The Time Is Now by SHUR-I-KAN, known for his work on Freerange & Urbantorque to name a few. Closing this EP with class & distinction, Moodmusic‘s head SASSE has reworked in a late night groover mode the long awaited Subakuatik Blues by PETTER & DAIRMOUNT, due early may in its original glory with an extra Sasse‘s dub & a fantastic Russ Gabriel rework.
  A well rounded first episode selected for you by DAIRMOUNT.

Marlow / Fonk / Raw mix

Greg Beato - Let Em Know

One year ago, just in the following of our 2nd release, one email landed in the RWAV mailbox praising about our label start & the excitement it provided. This email was including some unreleased tracks and signed by the hand of one of my favorite French producers of the last 15 years, Ludovic Llorca.

Beyond the great honor & surprise, this became the beginning of a deep artistic & human connection materialised by the appearance of his Carl Craig tribute, Terres Conquises & Philterism in my Perspectives serie in 2009. It was very clear from the start that these tracks would be the beginning of a long term collaboration on his Art Of Tones project.

The EP presented today is the fruit of Llorca’s inventive vision of what retro-futuristic Black rooted club music should be today. This 3 tracker is a perfect example of what House music can offer at its best when roots, history & identity are not forgotten on the way. The title track The World as I Live it is an hypnotic loopy builder that never stops building and create a unique climax, a kind of vitaminised version of Mr Parrish’s Ugly Edits. The track has proved to be an instant favorite of many House heavyweights such as Tony Humphries, Kink, Mike Monday or D’julz. Breaking Bad is offering an irresistible & more musical version of the Disco Funk rooted sound. For the ones that cherished the famous Raw Cuts of MCDE, this is maybe the sophisticated French savoir-faire answer to them. The track has proved to received early rotation in the best clubs from Berlin to Glasgow, from Istambul to Stockholm.
And finally, the Argument is probably the most hybrid & edgy track of the EP and is genuinely the nugget for the freestylers amongst you.

“It took me only a few minutes to realise that André is one of these rare individuals that make you feel instantly “at home”… I understood quickly then that the music I discovered earlier on labels like Moods & Groove or Simple, was a real mirror of his soul…”
It is indeed on a cold day of that 2008 Berlin autumn that André & myself had a tea time & decided to work together. André decided spontaneously to record fresh material especially for the label, more than 6 months before our first release. This says a lot about the common trust that was born that day, much before the hype surrounded the man.

The result of this saw the light some weeks later in the form of Vehemence Of Silence, a track of indeniable power which breathes long years of djing & Berlin afterhours as much as uncovering close impressions of André’s emotional outcome. This is what made me feel that track like a whisper to my body & soul and what makes me so proud to release it today… More than 10 months down the line, André improved it, tested it on the floor till a final club listening session in the middle of the Berghain dancefloor where we both knew it was ready to be shared…

This special track needed of course outstanding alternative perspectives and it didn’t take me long to propose my old friends Martin Iveson & Danilo Plessow (both amongst André’s favorites) to give it their magic : Atjazz managed to bring the track in subtle afro territories twisted with early Prescription echoes while Motor City Drum Ensemble’s version translates an unexpected Techno jam reminiscent of the best early Soma days. The EP is completed by a fantastic dub by André himself and a second original called Dark Edge, a sophisticated & raw deep house joint.

Vehemence Of Silence EP

André Lodemann - Vehemence Of Silence

It's already the third episode of the Perspectives serie served with love by DAIRMOUNT who prepared with lots of care the fattest compilation of his young imprint with nothing less than 8 high standard tracks, all exclusive to this release.

The unstoppable MOTOR CITY DRUM ENSEMBLE, who is currently topping both vinyl & digital charts with his latest Raw Cuts & his remixes of Dj T & Steve Bug, graced us with a beautiful moody number with a distinctive MCDE pedigree. Our old friend SASSE will release a full EP with us in 2010 and we couldn't wait to present you Lake Michigan, an inspired little "clin d'oeil" to Detroit godfathers, part of his forthcoming EP.

HONESTY retweaked SYGAIRE's classic The Time Is Now to give it a late night dubbiness touch of the best order while Ludovic Llorca offers one of his ART OF TONES solid builder with Philterism, a track heavily played by Dairmount since he fell in love with it...

Static Off (Dust Away) marks another moment of studio experimentation for the mighty duo DAIRMOUNT and MARINO BERARDI who seem to take unexpected ways track after track. After the acclaimed Omni on Perspectives 02, this is another slice of hybrid House music.

ANDRÉ LODEMANN, one of Berlin's hot shots of 2009, fresh from his massive Vehemence Of Silence EP on our label, signed another serious Deep House number called Gentle Doubt that will satisfy his numerous new fans.

Round The Block is another Dairmount's discovery courtesy of the respected WERNER NIEDERMEIER who produced remarkable stuff this year on Supplement Facts & Phonica (as JC Freaks). Pure boompty bump for your pleasure!

And finally, JOEL ALTER, one of our favorite Swedish producers, dropped Control, a druggy nugget announcing his flamboyant Omerta EP due in November this year.

B1 Greg Beato - Let Em Know

Very few new imprints have received such a warm welcome from all sides of the spectrum than Room With A View. Respected dj’s, worldwide music media & retailers have all been deeply impressed by the quality & vision transported by the label founded in spring 2009 by Dairmount & Anja Knupper in Hamburg. The label’s ethic is aiming to get back to timeless “emotional content” club music with a futuristic flair, while breaking the pattern of “functionality” that club music too often slips into these days. Room With A View presents a subtle mixture of House & Techno with a twist of freshness & Detroit influences. 

It is quite a little performance to invite a large range of dj’s to enjoy the same sound these days : Techno mammoths such as Carl Craig, Laurent Garnier, Ritchie Hawtin, Dubfire or Dj Hell, Deep House heavyweights such as Jimpster, Dj Deep, Manuel Tur or Brothers Vibe, Tech House masters such as Steve Bug, MANDY or Joris Voorn, Leftfield wizards such as Lawrence, Peter Kruder, Jazzanova or dj legends such as Danny Krivit or Francois K have all embraced the sound of the label with real enthusiasm…
