Sunman (EG) - Ignition EP [Lighthouse Recs]

Premieres

Nothing Is Real Records (@nothingisrealrecords) celebrates spring with another great Mexican producer, Alfredo Cardenàs aka Montessori (@montessorimusicmx), already recognized for his Rhythmic enveloping and energetic style of productions. The quality of his music caught the attention of many producers, djs and dancers in the game. The Montessori EP is formed by 4 dancefloor oriented tracks.

The main track ‘Glue In The Sand’ is a perfect example of modern indie dance, with the fresh addiction of trippy synths and fx, the tailored vocal of Vongold (@nvongold) captures the attention of the listeners giving a lovely shape. Instead ‘Digital Mind’ is an obscure dark piece of dance music with a special tech flavor, perfect for the need of pushing more when the crowd is ready.

You can immediately hear the desire of experimenting different roads on the arrangement from the German duo Peter Invasion (@peter-invasion) and Gregor Habicht (@gregor-habicht) on their remix of Glue In The Sand: the work on electro elements and the sliced pieces of vocals are simply unique, a solid inprint from the producers.

Astroloop is on board remixing Glue In The Sand with a simple but effective bassline, gated synths and acid moments trying to maintain the moving of the track with the change of elements.

Berlin based power duo Local Suicide announce their long-awaited debut album ‘Eros Anikate’ released on their label Iptamenos Discos on May 13th, 2022. The title translates to ‘love invincible’ and draws influence from Sophocles’ play, ‘Antigone’ - an ancient Greek play based around tragedy in the aftermath of a civil war. ‘Eros Anikate’ will showcase the duo's renowned ‘technodisco’ sound, blending retro with modern elements, alongside moody baselines and haunting vocals, whilst featuring an array of exciting collaborators and friends including Curses, Hard Ton, Skelesys, Lee Stevens, The Hidden Cameras, Sissi Rada, Theus Mago, Kalipo, and Greek new wave legend Lena Platonos. 

 ‘Moustache’ , the third single taken from the album is a collaboration of Local Suicide with their longtime collaborator and friend, Buenos Aires native Skelesys. Sharing a love for the darker sounds you’d find in horror films and computer simulations, the 4/4 kick drum and woodwind like sounds manipulated into a frenzy bring us a rather interesting juxtaposition of playful horror.  

“This one started off as a hymn to Dali, but ended up being a love letter to a dude with a ‘stache”.  

While the track crescendos into an ominous buildup of synths that continue to mesmerise you, the famous Vamparela vocals are the perfect surrealist playground that Dali himself would be proud of. Contrasting the playful with the serious, this track is the perfect oxymoron with post-punk and EBM madness, of which we’d expect nothing less from the two acts coming together.  

‘Eros Anikate’ will be released on Vinyl, CD and digitally on Iptamenos Discos on 13th May 2022.

Local Suicide announce their long awaited debut album ‘Eros Anikate' which will be released May 13th, 2022 via their own label Iptamenos Discos. The title translates to ‘love invincible’ and draws influence from a play written by Sophocles titled ‘Antigone’.

The album holds true to the duo's ‘technodisco’ sound that the couple has become so well known for and showcases their signature style of blending a retro feeling with a modern twist. In usual Local Suicide fashion, the duo’s debut album showcases tongue in cheek modern-day circumstances, mystical adventures, and moody baselines; all tied up with the promises of happy endings. You can instantly hear that this album comes from the duo’s hearts. Inspired by the travels and experiences they encountered throughout the pandemic, it’s also a love letter to the friends they met during their career - some of which are also featured on the album: Lee Stevens, Curses, The Hidden Cameras, Sissi Rada, Skelesys, Theus Mago, Hard Ton, Kalipo & Greek new wave legend Lena Platonos.

The producer couple has had a stunning amount of press coverage from leading electronic mags like RA, DJ Mag, Mixmag, FAZE, Groove, Ransom Note, TRAX, Time Out, Tsugi, XLR8R & Rolling Stone for their 13 EPs, numerous tracks on compilations and remixes since 2014 on acclaimed labels, while Beatport declared them as one of the key figures in the uprising dark disco scene. They also recently played themselves in Fett & Fett, a series broadcasted on German national TV station ZDF, in which their musical productions were featured extensively as well. Their DJ career has carried them to all four corners of the world, from Europe, Asia and North Africa to South America and the United States, whipping crowds into a frenzy at Lollapalooza, Melt!, ADE, Off Sonar, Festival Forte, Berlin Festival and many more. Their live cuts have been honed to perfection with years of shows alongside the very best in the scene, even being invited by New Order to warm up for their live show in Berlin.

Mundo D unleashes a radar-like system, merging EBM and industrial with a raw energy that channels Valencia’s underground spirit of the late ’80s, right before the media explosion of the so-called Ruta del Bakalao. On the remix, Jason Core takes it into his own realm, adding harmonic depth, warmer textures, and subtle syncopations that give the track a more organic feel.
