Ahead of its release at the end of the week on the mighty First Word Records, MIMS is excited to share "Guili", an undeniably  bodymoving disco funk bomb by Paris/Caen based duo DJ Soulist & Fulgeance. 

French slang for "tickle", 'GUILI' is an epic disco-funk piece inspired by the likes of Azymuth, Herbie Hancock and Marcos Valle, but incorporated with Souleance's trademark sounds of fuzzy bass-heavy electronica, synths and samples, giving the track a fresh contemporary twist.

The forthcoming EP features another cracking song, "Torro" and a remix of "Guili" by Art of Tones. Look out for a limited vinyl 45 too!

Exclusive Premiere: Souleance "Guili" (Forthcoming on First Word Records)

New week, new premiere - we follow up last week's Henry Keen premiere with this sample-heavy 4/4 cut from Darran P, with elements of vibraphone peppering the mix to great effect... his "Into The Light" EP will be out July 21st!  Shout out to Minor Notes Recordings!

UK based DJ & Producer Darran P returns to Minor Notes with his first full artist offering. Into The Light EP kicks things off with a jazz drenched deep house vibe. This release contains 4 original tracks from Darran + 2 remixes from Russian producers SIL and Tsktch. 

Jazzmatazz is a low slung affair which veers off into darker territory mid-way through the rhythmic excursion. Next up is a track entitled ‘It Was All So Simple’ a sample-heavy 4/4 cut with elements of vibraphone peppering the mix to great effect. About A boy switches the tempo up slightly with a heavy beat-laden exotic sound which has a familiar vibe throughout. Finally, the EP finishes with Skyline Blvd, a track that has a hypnotic groove and a wandering baseline. The track was inspired by the drive along the pacific coast highway to San Francisco.

We are super happy to have this long awaited release on our board and push very different music which we are very inspired by.

Mix A027: 4004 2022.09.08

Zopelar arrives on Tartelet Records with Charme – an album of effervescent machine funk harking back to a golden era of Brazilian party music, releasing October 21.

Stemming from an emotional sincerity to reconnect with his Brazilian background, Pedro Zopelar releases a 10-track celebration of life, music, and good times enjoyed.

The album is inspired by a particular phenomenon that caught on at suburban parties in 1980s Rio de Janeiro:

“Charme was like a mix of slow boogie, R’n’B and new jack swing. DJ Corello started calling ‘charme’ the moment at a party when he played slow grooves and the people started dancing with sexier, synchronized moves. On this record I tried to make something that brings this feeling out in a modern way,”
Zopelar says.

Much like the original genre-not-genre he drew inspiration from, Zopelar’s approach across his latest LP spans different moods and tempos. There’s blissful, sultry mystery lingering around “Clara” and “Do You Feel?” while “OSAGIE” lends some chops to the exquisite, Rompler-powered synth funk of “Chain Net”.

The lead singles “Charme”, “Shibuya” and “Passado” all tap into varying shades of deep house, from slinky City Pop-tinted loungers to peak-time dance pop and Larry Heard-influenced flavors, with the constant being Zopelar’s immaculate production and the unbridled warmth of his compositions.

Zopelar’s music has been emotionally charged since he first broke through on Brazilian labels like Mister Mistery and D-Edge, before connecting to international crews like Apron, Connaisseur, and Endless. As a multi-instrumentalist growing up in rural Minas Gerais, his musical training has been applied to various collaborative projects such as My Girlfriend, Radioworkers, and Sphynx.

Continuing the Latin-rooted theme of Charme, the artwork conception of Charme was realized by multidisciplinary artist and curator Ode, showcasing a popular style of street paintings made by anonymous artists throughout Latin America, using walls to paint food and drink menus and the like.

Charme is out October 28. on vinyl and digital.

I Hope I'm on the Right Path

Rivers of gold flow through the landscape of memory, carrying the glow of dawn to the silent embers that linger in the ashes. Each clue unfolds like a reflection in water, veiled by light, rising toward horizons that bloom with a silent fire. Echoes shimmer in the sky, weightless yet eternal, until they coalesce into sparks that illuminate what was once forgotten. The journey culminates in the song of the lightweaver, where brilliance and memory dissolve into a single stream of golden time.
