Escape (Driving To Heaven) (16B Dark Dub 2) [feat. Morel]

“After 20 years of releasing music on aLOLa you almost come to a point where it goes in big circles and you see the same vibe come back at you like it once did the first time round, but with a host of new producers and DJs discovering it all for the first time. "Escape" is that kind of track, one that doesn’t seem to age due to its broad cross-genre appeal and an energy that’s kept it relevant, even though it was originally released over 10 years ago.” – Omid 16B

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of his highly respected aLoLa record label, Omid 16B is marking this landmark achievement with a series of special releases and amazing parties throughout 2013. Now, as he puts the finishing touches to his forthcoming label mix compilation, it is time to revisit one of his finest creations.

When “Escape (Driving To Heaven)” by Omid 16B featuring the distinctive vocals of Richard Morel was first released on 29th October 2001 on the ground-breaking (now defunct) Hooj Choons label, it became one of the landmark releases of that era, an undisputed classic, that is to this day, regarded as one of the most unique and influential tracks of our time.

Now, in 2013, as part of the “20 Years Of aLoLa” celebrations, Omid 16B has sought out and commissioned a series of exceptional, diverse remixes to introduce “Escape” to a new audience and bring memories flooding back to those who remember the past.

“These two remix packs involve some of the most respected and genre breaking artists in my eyes, people who have their own sound and never really conform to any particular style, creating their own interpretation of the original with a variety of distinctly different ideas, yet staying true to the spirit of this classic track.” – Omid 16B

Whether you favour Omid 16B and Arnas D’s delicious, soul filled & hypnotic vibes; Guy J’s euphoric masterpiece; Betoko’s seductive deepness; Mindskap’s twitchy tech energy boost; Kevin Di Serna’s twisted experimentation or Alex George’s heavy techno take - the classic vibe shines through as strong as ever. 

Whether you favour Spin Science’s daring bass driven takes; Maher Daniel’s masterstroke slow motion moment; Silky and Johnny Cruz’s acidic attitude; or the still stunning original album version – the classic vibe shines through as strong as ever. Revisiting the past rarely feels so good!

aLOLa Podcast 07_Omid 16B & Anton "Echomen" Fielding

Utilising the art of pastiche, Dale Middleton sets 90s main-room elements against an on-point rhythmic foundation in ‘Eggos’ and continues these themes with ‘Engage’, a slice of chill, perfect as a set-closer. SexOnWax delivers yet another superb release with this 2-tracker.

Dale Middleton - Engage

Dale Middleton selects three cuts from his Reincarnation's 002 album giving you a little taste of what to expect from this fantastic and euphoric artist / comp / album featuring fresh tracks by Dale himself amongst artists alike with a mutual love for a musical journey to melt into.

‘Copper Top’ leads us down an enticing path of melodic rumbles blended with high pitched frequencies, all pushed forward by a haunting female vocal snippet which continues to progress this uplifting yet gritty release from Dale Middleton. Omid 16B’s “On & Off” is a space within the universe where all distractions melt away, as layer upon layer of melodic musical experimentation are fused onto a hypnotic minimalistic groove that defies mere simplistic generic classification.

‘Vertex’ is effortlessly catchy from the off, grabbing our attention with layers of building staccato synths, followed by a euphoric groove undertone moving towards the drop.

aLOLa Podcast 18_John Cosani & Alessandro Mogarelli

2002:
16B, the name used by producer Omid Nourizadeh is probably one of the hardest working men in dance today. In addition to a hectic DJ schedule, and many high calibre productions and also remixes for the likes of Jamez, CM and many other artists, he has made a name for himself, with his unique deep grooves and gorgeous melodic basslines. In addition to this he runs the label Alola, Amongst all this he has found time to follow up on the 1998 debut ´Sounds From Another Room´ and his recent Alola compilation, ´Everything, All Of Them And Every Year´ to unleash his second solo album upon us, ´How To Live 100 Years´.

´Inbetween Your Choice´ eases us in at the start, but unlike most albums, Omid decides to whet the appetite with this opener, which can only possibly be described as a musical masterpiece that refuses to stay within the confines of dance music. Amidst the deep trickling bassline and glorious melody lay all matter of drum arrangements and eastern sounding strings that will quite literally dazzle your senses and leave you breathless. 

The laid back mood is continued with the familar guitar riffs and gravely vocals of ´Escape (Driving To Heaven)´, featuring the vocals of the excellent Richard Morel who´s performance still sounds as fresh today as it did upon it´s intial release. ´Keep On Changing Shape´ alters the flow of the cd slightly with its upbeat percussion and rolling groove which culminates in the trippy funktastic bassline of ´De-Org Song´, adding a slightly darker edge to the album.

´Doubt´ is one of those tracks that you could quite easily melt to at your favourite pre club bar, favourite drink in the hand, good company, good vibes and a general happy feeling being emitted by the soulful vocals being belted out coutesy of the mysterious Stephan. 

´Colours´ on the other hand is a downbeat drum ladden beauty that just shimmers softly and makes your mind just to drift away to the sound of Kate Jackson´s evocative vocals, but unfortunately this is cut way too short by the acidic loops and grooves of ´The Room´ which teases a more uplifting pace before ´We Will Again´ cuts that vibe short in a subtle way with the cinematic strings and atmospheric sounds that are carried over nicely into the rapid fire percussion of ´Virus´ and into the rough melodic layers of ´Behind The Face´, a soft vocal murmuring away in the backdrop and nicely complimenting the groove which brings the album to its penultimate high before the vocaless vesions of ´Colours´, simply entitled ´Reprise´ brings the album to the perfect end.



Following on from ´Sounds From Another Room´ this surpasses that debut in every way, and showcases that Omid 16B is not just a talented DJ, not just a talented musician or producer, but is quite simply the fking don.
