Arad, real name Dara Smith, first joined the VOITAX catalogue in June 2020. Back then, the Irish artist served us up with »Radiance Haze« - a 6-track EP, spanning from heavy-hitting breaks to the ethereal ambience, with heavy features of Smith’s vocals. Known for his multidisciplinary vision on music, he has also previously made seminal moves with his work as one half of Lakker, alongside Eomac, dropping groundbreaking music on heavyweight labels such as R&S, Blueprint and Stroboscopic Artefacts.

For his second EP on VOITAX, Smith now returns with five beautifully crafted tracks that he titles »Augmented Fantasy«. While following a similar approach, he does not fail to expand his repertoire of celestial dream-like atmospheres, which he carefully surrounds with a whole variety of vocals, and accurately placed broken drum patterns. In addition to his own singing, Arad also presents two impressive collaboration tracks, in which one of them features the voice of Stine Omar, also widely known as one half the Berlin-based pop duo EASTER. Driving rhythmics and processed, grainy vocals turn this piece into guaranteed hit material. Another collaboration with the befriended vocalist and music producer Nina Hynes serves as a touching closing chapter for this brilliantly produced, eclectic 5-tracker. All pieces are perfectly glued together while keeping their very individual character and soundscapes. The listener is certainly left with an augmented fantasy, as well as a curiosity to hear more to come from the Irish talent. 

Tracklist:

A1 Dream House
A2 State Of Her Boat ft. Stine Omar

State Of Her Boat ft. Stine Omar

PREMIERE: Arad - State Of Her Boat ft. Stine Omar [Voitax]

Twisted branches and overgrown plants blocked their way at every turn but they still moved rapidly through the jungle with effortless ease. They knew these parts like the back of their hand, every inch of river and growth, up to the trees that towered overhead. It was the only way you could survive, one wrong turn and you’d be in trouble, it was the nature of the jungle.

To round off the year Hanzo and Yaman’s Belly Dance Services are ushering out one more record to see us through the holidays. Set for release on Christmas Eve, the EP is a fresh co-production journey from Central American producers Fabio Me Llaman Soltero and Odia, who come together for ‘Demoladora de Bestias’.

Backed up by two remixes from Indonesian producer DJ Aditya Permana and Belly Dance services co-founder Hanzo, the four originals and two reworks marry spellbinding rhythms, hypnotic percussion and ritualistic samples, navigating both slower tempos and vibrations custom-made for the floor.

Roam Records label boss Jason Peters is back with a new EP of psychedelic italo inspired originals. The EP opens with What Are You Saying - a mid tempo chugger featuring Jason's voice drifting over arpeggiated bass lines and electronic melodies with a bit of vocoder splashed in. The title track Little Cages picks the tempo up with a pulsating thematic drive. The EP is backed by remixes from Zillas on Acid and Club Tularosa. Zillas is up first with a gorgeous dubbed out version or What Are You Saying. Club Tularosa takes on the title track and brings the fun with an upbeat bassline and uplifting melody.

Ma Spaventi is a wonderfully versatile artist. Over his decade-long career, the Italian musician has turned his capable hand to everything from ambient to techno. Once again, he is expanding his sound palette and challenging expectations with Vicino Lontano.

Across eight tracks, an array of ideas and influences are explored with additional guitar work coming care of Odeon’s Michele Righini. The reflective hues of “Solitario” give way to the warming strings and peaceful brightness of “Crepuscolo.” Written and produced in Amsterdam between 2017 and 2019, beautiful memories of the past are the source of inspiration. Radiating Summer sunshine bathes “Bring Me Back” in a comforting glow, while “Velvet Lights” teases rhythm sections with thick bass lines and shimmering synth work. Moments of introspection arrive in the elegant gliding forms of “Bomber” and “Intermezzo.” The rumbling “End Line” finds harmony amongst a spread of styles, cascading chords and rich textures, all combining beautifully. A moon rise closes, the grand curtain falls on “Bidderosa”,  calling time of this stunning collection.

Having featured on the Riviera Disco compilation series, it’s time that Donald Dust returns to Bordello. This time the Scottish artist is back with a five-track EP in the form of Nausea. Bending ideas and styles, the Edinburgh producer serves a sample-strewn, italo-infected grenade. Hoarse vocals sully clean chords and percussion as arpeggiators grind and growl. Drum patterns stagger and stumble in the bleary-eyed house-streaked “Sick Your Own Mix” of the original. The listener is never sure where Mr Dust will take them, with influences and surprises coming in equal measure. “Noise in the Stairwell” is an electro stalker, bolts juttering and jangling in this work of vocoder-scented giallo funk. The styles continue to be melted into new sound forms on the flip with two versions of Jupiter Jack. The “Groove Mix” takes the staccato stabs of new beat and supercharges them with punishing percussion and a good helping of dancefloor devilment. Leading us into the wee hours of the after, the “Jupiter Mix” leans on the darker tones and rusted-up rhythms for a final body jack before the realisation that work starts in eight hours.

The Passport To Paradise gang are in fine form as they serve up four more tripped-out disco edits for the globally-minded savant. We take sail with the excellent 'Thru Wit’ Waitin’', a beefed-up guitar chugger reminiscent of 70's AOR in its steady percussive work and misty sax solo. It’s the guitar line that really shines here, lifting the tune into funk transcendence in the bridge. 'Anybody Out There' here premiered reaches out to the disco trippers with its northern Italian cosmic kitsch feel : starry-eyed synth pads float above reverb-soaked guitar musings and playful French vocal samples. A particular highlight. On the flip, PTP take things south with a soulful West African shuffler guaranteed to elicit some arresting footwork. The EP leaves us with resounding vibrations from the Far East: ‘JP Wave’ explores ethereal planes, building up a dense rhythmic fabric punctuated by bass stabs and ornamental chimes.

PREMIERE – Captain Mustache – Rhythm 55 (Bordello A Parigi)

Tenebrous frenchman Jon Beige (formerly known as Beige) strikes back with his 3rd release, and once again creates his own genres that we’re going to define here as ghettowave or leftfield-core. Melting high-tech soundscapes, hypnotic synths and broken drums, his heavily synthetic universe spreads into 5 new tracks. Here’s a few words about them, including comments from the producer himself.

Distorsion Naturelle de l’Auto Radio is a straight-in-the-face kind of entrance. This arid and distorted urban jam puts you straight in the heart of Jon Beige’s dystopian Gotham paradise « I often imagine it as a laser tag game that would turn wrong ».  

On Palo Santo, Jon Beige is going dancehall. Using the genre’s symptomatic drum pattern, he navigates between club-friendly and meditative moods in a tensed yet balanced journey. « That’s the track I think is the most finished of the EP, but all the tracks match together in a not-fully-calculated way ».Hydrocution is a funk ballad, like a mysterious forest walk surrounded by disturbing but harmless creatures that are taking you to a bright glade, where you will finally stumble into the master of the place. « I often struggle to produce something simple with just a few elements – this track is the first time I succeeded. »

Isolat is a smooth and psychedelic sci-fi trip, unexpected and always moving forward « I imagined a little robot lost in a city suburb, wondering what he was doing there. Mood is kinda Spike Jonze’s ‘’Da Funk’’ but with a robot ».

The EP closes in a very noir scene, heavy rain, melancholia and cold blooded crimes : Déjeuner Sous l’Herbe won’t let you rest in peace. « This track, my oldest on this EP, was made in 2014. I’m still really into the solo in the end ».  

The artwork is designed and imagined by Belgrade-based artist and producer Stevie Whisper, aka the hands behind Yes and Mystic Stylez.
The record will be released as a ziplock package that includes a USB stick with the WAV files and exclusive club remixes + a limited edition poster + some cool stickers.

Releasing Jon Beige since his earliest work, Global Warming Records is run by french producer and talent seeker Malcolm, who imagines and shapes each project hand in hand with his artists. Friendly Surveillance will be the label’s 12th release.
