AEON050 - Versus vol.1

KEY MIXES

Jennifer Cardini's label Correspondant kicks off 2019 with their various artists EP 'Numéro 01' which holds five exclusive tracks from artists like Damon Jee, EDE, Jenia Tarsol & Jinga, Joris Briesmans and Speaking Minds & Amarcord. The latter's contribution, 'Jupiter Express', is most likely one of the highly anticipated tracks of the EP and, for good reason, has been played out by several scene mainstays. 'Jupiter Express' implements a New Wave-vibe right with its first beat and chord and has the finger on the pulse of current electronic music developments. As the track progresses Speaking Minds & Amarcord add various synth-chord-variations in different octaves while a stomping bass line takes you on a ride into different spaces before further spacey soundscapes are skillfully added and a warm bleeping and echoing arpeggio rings in the finale of the 'Jupiter Express' and its arrival in a new musical and out of space world.

Correspondant's various artist EP 'Numéro 01' will be released January 18th, 2019 on Correspondant.

Vinyl: bit.ly/2W1QGxs

Coming in hot off WhoMadeWho’s Watergate 26 Mix and the first EP following it, we present the second of three EP’s of featured material from the compilation split into vinyl and digital formats.

Starting with the vinyl instalment we see WhoMadeWho and Ruede Hagelstein kick things off with their elegant and sexy Björk cover ‘Violently Happy’ before the mesmerizing hypnotics of Ruede Hagelstein and Justin Evans’ ‘Love Over Pyramids’ take center stage. Flipping to the B side, WhoMadeWho deliver two remixes, first with their remix of Alex Schaufel’s ‘The Day Of Rebirth’ which moves into more emotionally dramatic moments while their genre spanning rework of Concret & Tyu’s ‘BlackBlueYellowGreen’ hits that euphoric uplifting chord.

Turning to the digital release, Clarian’s ‘Mixed Feelings’ sets the tone with a moody demeanor and slick groove before Kenton Slash Demon enter more cinematic territory with their stunning ‘Arp8’. Öona Dahl & Dance Spirits’ Break The Stillness’, which WhoMadeWho launched their mix with, continues bearing an impassioned wash of lush sonics before Speaking Minds & Amarcord deliver their epic and era blending ‘Blue Days’ to conclude the release.

Watergate EP 26 #1

A Story of Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Slow Motion, New Wave, Breakbeat ...is now starting.

The Last Step

Salut everybody... after 4 years of hiding in the shadows with a label emphasis on letting the music speak for itself and only unveiling artist names two months after release date we can now pull back the velvet curtain to reveal the two people behind Cod3 QR. Both deliver a track each on the label’s 10th release... ladies and gentleman... Cod3 QR is Laurent Garnier and Scan X.
After much speculation, the cat is finally out of the bag. Laurent is of course one of the greatest techno artists on the planet, having rocked every club and festival many times over. Whilst his legendary status has been catalogued recently both in words (the book ‘Electrochock’) and this year’s documentary film ‘Off The Record’ he remains as ever dedicated to the music first and foremost.
Laurent’s partner in crime, Stéphane Dri a.k.a. Scan X is one of the original pioneers of the French techno scene. His career began in 1993 when he released his first two EPs on FNAC MUSIC before signing to the now legendary F Communications run by Eric Morand and a certain Mnsr. Garnier.
Leading by example they have both contributed to the label’s tenth release. Laurent’s slice of dancefloor techno on ‘How d'ya like your Beef’ is as funky and emotional as we have come to expect from France’s electronic ambassador. While Scan X’s ‘Internal’ drags us into the murky depths with piercing sonar like stabs showing the way. The EP is rounded off by Italian producers Speaking Minds & Amarcord collaborating on the deeper rolling sonics of ‘Poliritmo’ whilst finally we head to Uruguay with the exquisite, string-laden techno funk of Diego Infanzon’s ‘Bye Bye’. A stunning conclusion.

MFRR127  - NAOME Remixes // out 27/07/2015

Back in February, My Favorite Robot released an excellent full length album from accomplished DJ and producer Andrew Grant in his Naome guise. It proved a treasure trove of hits for dancers and DJs alike, and now the Canadian label revisit it for some expertly enlisted remixes. Speaking Minds, System of Survival, Nitin and Daniel Kyo all step up and breath plenty of their own unique character into the still stunning source material. Speaking Minds is the union of Simone Sinatti and Marco Paladin, an Italian pair that has released on this label before now. Their version of 'Kosmatic' is a slow burning, spiritually arresting track that is epic in the most reserved of ways. With slithering synth lines and reflective chords it lulls you into a trance and sooth your mind with its lush sense of musicality. System of Survival is another Italian pair, this time made up of Alex Carpentieri and Pietro De Lisi. They are veterans of labels like Get Physical and BPitch Control and their remix of Great Escape feat. Ony is a groovy, organic affair with warm chords, romantic vibes and loose limbed precision in its bones. Whispered vocals add a steamy sexiness and it's a standout track as a result. And so to Nitin, a key member of the MFR family and a revered talent who also lights up his No 19 Music label which he co-owns with Art Department's Jonny White. His revision of 'Wherewe' feat. Nanni is a lumpy and bumpy deep house roller with smeared chords, a sense of late night laziness to it and a wealth of human chords that strike right at your heart. It's magical and memorable in equal measure. Last but not least, Spaniard Daniel Kyo has emerged as a fine modern day beat maker thanks to outings on Poker Flat and Sincopat, as well as for his charismatic DJ sets along side the likes of Carl Craig and Larry Heard as resident at Minicab in his native Valencia. He has also headlined places like Panorama Bar in Berlin so is very much an ascending 2015 star. He tackles 'Spacestation' feat. Symbol and flips it into a gurgling, slow mo, no wave disco track with ticking arps, sticky drums and dreamy, drifting vocals that are sure to soundtrack many a great summer party. This is a fantastic package that not only reminds us how great the originals were, but that also proves MFR has its finger on the pulse when it comes to talented remixes from around the world.

NAOME vs Slumber - Kosmatic (Speaking Minds Remix)

ARDOR003 - Valdar EP // out 18.12.2015

ARDOR spreads it's wings over the international scene with adding the talented Dutch duo Hush & Sleep to their bill. The carefully crafted Valdar EP created by the Maastricht based duo narrates cyclical glorious myths that consist of a sequence of perfectly composed harmonic built-ups and herculean drum kicks throughout this poetic journey. Valdar's tale starts with mesmerising rolling synths and captive trumpets followed by the profound signature kick of the talented duo that resembles the creation of cosmos sound. Yrsa then creates a very unique atmospheric build up and an extremely well composed rolling baseline with a hypnotic minimal sample in the background, creating a euphoric feeling throughout the saga. The journey goes on with Ysteri, floating and progressing on wards and upwards with a combination of triumphant melodies that describes the feeling of well deserved battle. Italian duo Speaking Minds affiliated with Berlin based label Aeon then bless us with a reworked that is very unique than their usual choice of sounds,consolidating well constructed snares and remarkable peak moments.

Hush & Sleep - Ysteri (Speaking Minds Remix)

This past year, 2015, was very important for us.
We touched 3 Continents, 7 Countries and many amazing cities and clubs.
Not that much you might say, but for a newcomer act like ours is a very important step for our career in our first year of real touring.
We decided so to give away for free one of the track we were keeping for our upcoming LP we're working on, hoping you will enjoy it, as big THANK YOU for your constant support.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you all, see you in 2016!

Simone and Marco

MFR138 - Runners EP // out 12.02.2016

Canadian label My Favorite Robot Records looks across the pond to Italy for one of its early 2016 EPs.
The act behind the three excellent track release is Speaking Minds, a duo that released on the label back in 2014 and have also put out music on Aeon Records. Simone Sinatti and Marco Paladin have very quickly won fans and acclaim around the world with their inspired and passionate DJ sets and artful take on club music. Here they prove that once more with richly crafted synths and expansive grooves aplenty.
The perfectly seductive 'Marathon' opens up the EP with the sort of moods and groove that would be perfect for a long late night drive. Neon synth lines snake along above a rooted rubber groove and grow more wild as thing unfold. It is the sort of hypnotic offering that really takes command of a dancefloor and never lets up.
A dub mix of the same cut is even more driven, some of the synth drones are stripped back and it is a more cerebral, spaced out techno roller as a result.
The third offering, 'The Last Step,' is another deep space affair with gorgeously designed pads circling round a spacious groove. It is a vast and atmospheric track that really transports you to another galaxy far, far way with its rainy melodies, moody drum kicks and arcing sense of narrative.
This is spine tingling, sensitive music that is epic and emotive in all the right ways.

MAUT009 - The Velcoro Remixes EP // out 05.12.2016

Next up on Musica Autonomica is the Velcoro Remix EP.

After its release this spring, Nils Penners track Velcoro spun around the world in many DJ sets, playlists and compilations. The great, hypnotic melody and deep bassline inspired our Musica Autonomica producer family to add their vision to the tune.

SevenDoors, Speaking Minds, Innellea and labelboss Christian Prommer went into their studios for this release.

The producer SevenDoors Remix gives the track an atmospheric bassheavy rerub. Speaking Minds transform the track into a minimal techno monster that makes your head spin. The munich based producers Innellea sent the melody and the bassline through their sweet sounding studio and made their trademark hypnotic version and Christian Prommer gave Velcoro his signature drum treatment with wild, echoing claps. Play it loud!

1. Mermaid’s Chant (Original)
2. Circe
3. Mermaid’s Chant (Rave Mix)
4. Mermaid’s Chant (Man Power Remix)
5. Mermaid’s Chant (Boot & Tax Remix)

out 22nd June 2018 on My Favorite Robot Records

Leading Canadian imprint My Favorite Robot welcome Speaking Minds back to the family two years after the Italian’s last EP on the label. Here he links with Amarcord, while Man Power and Boot & Tax step up with remixes.
Speaking Minds has a slick tech, funk and dub heavy house sound that has seen his music get plays from big names like Dixon and Mano Le Tough. He has released on the likes of AEON and Music Autonomica and is now part of the global DJ circuit, playing all the key clubs and festivals.
‘Mermaid’s Chant’ is the fine first offering here. It’s a tense track with lots of great synths stepping up and down the scales. Sci-fi chords and slapping hits bring more energy and the whole thing will get the club in raptures with its real sense of dynamism. The excellent ‘Circe’ is another intense and fulsome track with bright, reflective and arresting synths filling the airwaves as forceful techno drums pound away below. It’s a peak time tune that really explodes with emotion and colour. A brilliantly trippy and transcendental Rave Mix of ‘Mermaid’s Chant’ is also included. It's more stripped back, with rolling snares bringing tension and celestial voices floating way up to the skies to make for some serious spine tingling next to the wonky acid line.
First to remix is current hot property Man Power. The Me Me Me label boss comes off the back of a huge charity compilation ‘We We We’ and is known for his expressive and twisted sounds on labels like ESP Institute, Futureboogie and Correspondant. His version of ‘Mermaid’s Chant’ has a heavy bassline bringing brooding vibes, while pixelated keys twinkle up top to cosmic effect.
Last but not least, Italian pair and Optimo Trax associates Boot & Tax bring their rugged disco grooves to another innovative remix. Corrugated bass, kaleidoscopic keys and a sense of building tension all make it a standout version.
This is another artful and thoughtful package of original club sounds from the My Favorite Robot label.
