A2 Archie Hamilton - Paradise Lost

Mihai Popoviciu, one of the most esteemed names in the deep house and minimal scene, is set to unveil his anticipated new album, ‘Puzzle Box’, on Bondage Music. As one of the label’s core artists, Popoviciu returns for his second full-length album release on the imprint following his successful 2016 album, ‘Home’ - available on vinyl from 15th November 2024.
 
With a career spanning over a decade and with releases on numerous influential labels such as 8Bit to Berg Audio, Popoviciu has firmly established himself as a go-to within the minimal-leaning realms of house music. Known for intricate soundscapes and deep, hypnotic grooves, his work continues to captivate audiences globally. On ‘Puzzle Box’, he delves deeper into his signature stripped-back yet soulful aesthetic, offering a diverse collection of tracks that traverse through various sonic textures.
 
“With Puzzle Box, each track unlocks something deeper with every listen” - Mihai Popoviciu.
 
Consisting of thirteen tracks in total, ‘Puzzle Box’ showcases the Romanian’s sound to its fullest. On the vinyl edition, fans are treated to standout tracks like ‘Batiscaf’, ‘Storm Rider’, and ‘Far Gone’ — vinyl-only gems that capture Popoviciu’s talent for layering subtle, dubby tones with groovy rhythms. The opening track, ‘They All Say’, sets the mood with smooth, atmospheric beats with a skippy groove, followed by the dynamic “Video” and the driving, pulsating energy of “Frankfurt.”
 
Popoviciu’s skill in crafting versatile productions is showcased throughout the album, with each track offering something unique.
From the sleek, melodic strains of ‘Puzzle Box’ to the hypnotic, rolling basslines of ‘Kinetic’, this LP is a journey into his meticulously constructed sound. The digital version also features the bonus track ‘Body Count 2’, offering a final, rhythmic flourish to round off the release.
‘Puzzle Box’ further cements Mihai Popoviciu’s role as a mainstay on Bondage Music, a label which continues to champion forward-thinking, minimal-leaning house music. With this latest LP, Popoviciu once again proves why he remains a favourite, building on his storied career with another masterclass in refined, deep electronic music.

B2 - Mihai Popoviciu - Routine Check

A1. IO (Mulen) - Stick Out

Early  May  will see  Mihai  Popoviciu  return  with  his second  long  player  in the  shape  of the ‘Home’  LP on Bondage  music, comprising  twelve  original  compositions  from the Romanian artist.

Mihai Popoviciu : "The album’s called "home" because it is inspired by my experiences from my home city Sibiu in Romania. Home is also the place where the album was produced, in my stripped down studio. It is where I always return to rest and chill after touring the world and the place where I feel most safe and comfortable. The artwork shows an image of the airport lane in Sibiu with surrounding hills and mountains in the back. It is a metaphoric "gate" to both leave and return home."

Romania’s Mihai Popoviciu has carved out quite the career over the past decade releasing material through the likes of Highgrade, Hudd Traxx, Poker Flat and Fear of Flying. Here though we see him deliver his second full-length album and return to Bondage Music following a single on the label back in
2013.

Across the project Mihai delivers his signature dance floor focused, stripped back style with records like ‘ACK’,  ‘Sandstone  Folder’  and  ‘Tentacle  Operated’  showcasing  the  hypnotic  and  percussive  style Popoviciu  executes  so well. The project also drifts into smooth dubby realms via compositions  like
‘Cannon Poets’ and ‘Sunshine’ while the likes of ‘Triumph’ and ‘Music 999’ radiantly display Mihai’s proficient production abilities as he wanders into a brighter more house centric sound.

All in all Mihai Popoviciu turns in a coherent long player whilst exploring a broad range of styles, ‘Focus and ‘Havana’ lay down a groove-led feel with subtle modulations  and an unfaltering structure, while ‘Data On Data’, ‘Paranoia’ and ‘Hypnosia’ tip the focus over to dark and brooding territories with murky synth  pads  and  chuggy  low  end  tones.  Once  again  Popoviciu  has  proven  himself  to  be  one  of Romania’s finest electronic music exports.

Mihai Popoviciu’s ‘Home’ LP is out on Bondage Music 12th May2016

Mihai  Popoviciu - Music 999

Ali Nasser’s remix on the flip brings together both classic percussion and synth elements, in a contemporary style, constructing a timeless house classic.

Lizz - Mystical Sayings

Since his massive ‘Works On Sunday EP’ from the middle of 2016 Archie’s star has risen considerably, peaking with his inclusion at no.70 on RA’s end of year DJ Poll. Here he steps up for EP duties once more on his spiritual home of Fuse London; ‘Driven to Distraction’ kicks things off with a bubbling acidic groover while ‘Telegram’ also harnesses the power of the 303 albeit in a more trippier form. ‘Channelled’ rounds things off with an elegantly floated groove, it’s melodic elements and aquatic kick heralding the shift in seasons beautifully.

Archie Hamilton - The Message

Moss Co. returns with rising Italian star Noha for a thoughtful 3 tracker remixed by label boss Archie Hamilton.

Loopo Di Mare on the A1 is a positively groovy affair. Rolling percussion and driving stabs modulate and talk to each other playfully, punctuated by big pad sweeps and mini breaks keeping the dance floor enthralled; the kind of track that could be deployed effectively at any time of night and have a different result each time.

Cat takes a more heads-down approach. Loose and lively percussion meets a concurrent synth,  sustaining pressure throughout the intro, hinting at deeper message which is finally delivered in the form of a powerfully emotive lead. Guaranteed eyes-closed, heads down.

Archie Hamilton toughens up the percussion in his interpretation of Cat on the flip side. Driving bass meets crisp highs, tight drums and a hypnotic, distant vocal. The lead is kept until the first break where it is used to great effect - kept close to the original, but with added warmth and distortion. A tried and tested dance-floor bomb.
