VARIOUS ARTISTS – PLANET LOVE: EARLY TRANSMISSIONS 1991-95

Having previously celebrated the deep and colourful world of late ‘80s and early ‘80s Italian house via the popular Welcome To Paradise compilation series, Safe Trip has now turned its attention to the roots and formative years of trance music.

Planet Love: Early Transmissions 1991-95 showcases the roots and formative years of trance via 13 loved-up, psychedelic, colourful, melodious and surprisingly varied dancefloor experiments from Europe, Australia and the United States.

The compilation includes pioneering proto-trance and early trance tracks from the likes of Hawke (AKA influential San Francisco producer Gavin Hardkiss), Epilson 9, Spooky, Oliver Lieb, Holy Ghost Inc, Morgan Wild (an outfit whose members included early NYC techno titan Damon Wild), Mijk van Dijk, Glam and Paul van Dyk.

Packed with must-have cuts, slept-on gems and sought-after rarities, Planet Love: Early Transmissions 1991-95 maintains the loved-up, listenable vibe of Welcome to Paradise while broadening its musical horizons. It is not a definitive history of trance music’s early years, but rather a colourful, life-affirming celebration of the varied strands that came together to create one of dance music’s most popular and enduring styles.

Contempo proudly presents the highly anticipated EP by Luigi Madonna, "Duality", a powerful exploration of the deeper and rawer dimensions of techno, enriched with hypnotic elements.

The renowned Italian techno artist and label founder, Luigi Madonna, has been an influential figure on the global scene for decades, celebrated for his dynamic performances and distinctive sound. As the driving force behind Contempo, Luigi Madonna continually pushes the boundaries of the genre, merging raw energy with hypnotic grooves. His recent releases on the esteemed Planet Rhythm label have further solidified his signature raw sound, earning support from many prominent artists in the scene.

"Duality" EP embodies the heart and soul of Contempo’s vision, reinforcing the label’s commitment to innovative techno that balances deep, hypnotic textures with powerful, pulsating rhythms.

The EP opens with "Foresight," creating an intense atmosphere with pulsating basslines and carefully layered synths, perfectly primed for peak-time euphoria. "Zonder" continues with hypnotic loops and gritty percussion, building a groove that gradually intensifies and deepens. The title track "Duality," stands out with engaging synth rhythms and haunting atmospheres, becoming a reference point for dark, late-night club environments. Finally, "Deep Depth" closes the EP, combining powerful bass with atmospheric textures, blending raw intensity with introspective depth, ensuring this release resonates strongly across various techno settings.
