Exclusive: Omar Joesoef - Chants Of Gorontalo (Cosmo Vitelli What Was The Question Again Remix)

Hard Fist's next release explores the chants and rituals of one of the world's last tribes living or holding on to ancient occurrences. Therefore Indonasian artist Omar Joesoef digged deep into the archieves of abandoned radio station on Java island to come up with samples of old recordings of the tribe. Unsurprisingly Joesoef names the EP's opening track, Chants of Gorontalo, after an Indonesian province on Sulawesi island, where the Dayak tribes lives and practices the ancient and traditional way of living. Aside from three more orginal tracks, namely Morning World, It's the Heat in the Room and a digital bonus track, Joesoef's Rituals of Gorontalo EP is provided with two remixes. While Jonathan Kusumu reworks It's the Heat in the Room, French hyper-spacey artist Cosmo Vitelli takes on remix duties for Chants of Gorontalo and turns it into a futuristic out of space tune that's implementation of racecar sounds, space-filling soundscapes whirl around and stir up elements from the original. However, it's the pads and synth-sequences in the second part of the eight minute lasting journey that serves as a counterpart to the spiritual didgeridoo-like sounds that accompany the listener from start to the very end.

Omar Joesoef's Rituals of Gorontalo will be released on Hard Fist June 10th, 2021.

Perhaps it was laziness, or simply a lack of interest, but generally they took what they saw at face value, unwilling to dig that little bit deeper to find out the real truth. That would be their downfall, they only cared about what was on the surface, when really there was so much more to learn and understand. If only they interrogated the veracity a little more, their knowledge would be so much richer. 

For their inaugural release, newly launched label Quartier Groove are harking back to 80s and 90s Spain, uncovering overlooked musical gems and breathing new life into them. In contrast to much of the contemporary digger and edit scene, label founders Richard Fribert and MOQST have worked hard to track down the original artists and fully license both cuts to ensure that they're properly spotlighting the artists and material.

Tired of seeing producers taking credit for digital edits of forgotten tracks, their hope with the project as a whole is to open up the discussion around mindfulness when releasing old and obscure music, including the use of sampling, fair remuneration for the original artists and a new approach from big record labels.

On the first instalment, 'Ritmo Del Barrio', they unearth a 1989 hip-house one-hit wonder which gets a dancefloor-focused flip from TYU, while on the B-Side label co-founder Richard Fribert offers his take on the experimental electronic rumba of Sombra y Luz, morphing it into a powerful hi-NRG club weapon.

Rodion and Fabrizio Mammarella are back with another precious collaboration EP since “Appennini” released in 2012 but never forgotten in the fame.
They have been like brothers for many years, and after many
collaborations, these two producers are well attuned to each other in their musical soul. Rodion and Fabrizio are both very sophisticated producers and known for their dramatic melodies, mixed with synthesized funk and disco, which turns it into emotional freaky electronic music.
All tracks are recorded in Mexico City, bringing in Mexican artist Mijo as a featuring on the track ‘’Cerro Gordo’’. Moreover, italo-belgian duo Front De Cadeaux join with a remix that grabs elements from both the original tracks, reworked in one timeless piece of music.
We are proud and delighted to present to you: “Sierra Madre”.

Lithuanian-based artist and the owner of the sunniest bar in Nida resort “Saulės baras” - Emilis San presents his very first track. His long-dreamed ambition for music production finally comes to the daylight in a form of “Particles”. Its nostalgic melody creates a trippy sensation while the boiling and punchy bass line make you move around. Emilis San sends huge thanks to his coach Jonas Calli, who helped him develop an essential set of skills and form his own sound, and Jaroška for neat mastering.

Exclusive: Jac The Disco - Goddess (Juan MacLean Remix)

Londoner Jac The Disco returns to his co-run label Spin On This to deliver his second EP, Manglik, which comes with two original tracks as well as remix works from Eric Duncan and Juan MacLean. The latter has recently had EPs on Jennifer Cardini's Correspondant imprint and Will Saul's Aus Music, a track on the latest Motordiscs various artists compilation and is going to release a couple of well-selected remixes, one of these is his take on Jac The Disco's track Goddess, which the New Yorker turns to a divine Disco driven dance floor-designed piece. Not only driven by a lush bass line it's Juan MacLeans array of synths the smoothly implemented glitches and the reluctant Acid-sounds, the cosmic and spaced-out vibe that make his approach to the track a pleasant experience for a wild (home)floor blast. 

Jac The Disco's EP Manglik will be released on Spin On This on July 3rd, 2020.

EXCLUSIVE: Jac The Disco - Goddess (Juan MacLean Remix) [Spin On This]

Friends, it is time for a finish. Here’s the seventh and last chapter of the festivities that we put together for our 50th catalogue number. Once again, the mighty graphics wizards Doppeldenk from Leipzig provided us with a delightfull artwork. And once again, you’ll get a record that sports a kaleidoscope of dance music from Uncanny Valley veterans and newcomers. This time with the emphasis on bright and positive timbres which can be associated with the colour yellow.

Cuthead starts things with a bang and his PARTY CHORDS set the tone perfectly (including neck pain after nodding your head to the beat like there’s no tomorrow). If chords could be president this would get a lot of votes.
