Weekly Wave

Following on from the success of Jorkes's Sweet Dream EP on the influential Live At Robert Johnson label, a wealth of innovative electronic talents all serve up their own remixes of it including Paris Böhm, Alinka, ROTCIV, Hard Ton, and more.

German-born but Austria-based Jorkes runs the Freeride Millenium label with her muse, lover, and partner Daniel Rajcsanyi aka. Paris Böhm. Her provocative work centralizes gender, queer and egalitarian attitudes, and her Sweet Dreams EP showed the many different sides of her sound.

It is Radio8000 resident ParisBöhm who offers the first remix of 'CDEvaLo'. It's slow and sensuous, with intimate spoken word vocals and lithe synths while the bubbling melodies add color. Next up is Ukraine-born but Berlin-based Alinka, whose hard-hitting sounds have come on the likes of Rekids and Crosstown. Her version of 'Sweet Dream' is uplifting and glossy with busy arps rising up over prickly drums. Acid gurgles add extra texture to this classy floor filler. Freeride Millenium associates Snecker aka Berghain resident DJ nd_baumecker and musician, singer, songwriter, producer, performer, and DJ Snax tackle the same track. In their hands, it becomes a steamy house cut with floating synth motifs and crisp claps over a tantalizing beat that never stops building.

ROTCIV is another Freeride Millenium artist who has a cultured and colorful sound built on alternating arpeggios, automated synth melodies, and weird vocals. His remix of 'You Will Be Mine' is a zoned-out vocal disco chugger with a rugged bassline. The cosmic rays up top and silky arps help the whole track take off. Italian duo and accomplished disco queens Hard Ton are all about hi-nrg beats and screaming acid bass whenever they release on Freeride Millenium or the likes of Toy Tonics. They remix 'You Will Be Mine' in typically high-impact fashion as crashing hits and drums pump the party underneath astral synths and libidinous vocals. Experimental Berlin art trio New Hook then step up to rework 'Robot Lover' into something beautifully atmospheric and melancholic with thoughtful chords over nu-disco grooves. This package is completed with a final fantastic Форм Remix of 'CDEvaLo' that adds yet another perspective.

All bases are covered in head-turning fashion on this vital remix EP.

Uncertain times, dissident forms of thinking, evolving world orders are common characteristics of the earth today. MixCult Records unveils a new sub division of forthcoming releases under the name of TAMIZDAT, which in Russian TAM means “there” (as a reference of an aboard, western location), and IZDAT means “to publish”. It was the name for banned books and magazines published "there", that is, abroad.

The complete name of this sub label makes a reference to the Soviet epoch where lots of Russian writers who were insurgents of the regime started to publish their works in the West. These works were restricted in the Soviet Union. The underground movement now continues to move forward with music, dedicating this space to those innovative artists that work their craft as a gift to the world with no boundaries.

The first release is an EP that reveals the works of Defaultman and Sapurra. For the lovers of dance-club Dub Techno, this one is a must have.

Mpeg - Dizzy

“Edgy Future Discotheque” is the name of the brand-new and fresh-from-the-oven compilation released on the vital “Madchester”-based imprint Sprechen, but it could be also the name of the genre the label favours to publish. Its flawless curation process guarantees a catalogue full of, yes, edgy, out-of-the-box Disco-soaked gems, and the Volume 5 of its VA series does not go in another direction. On board, a true dream team of collaborators: Andy Buchan (SXDNS012), Flash Atkins, Ed Mahon (SXDNS068), Tom2Trax, Jimmy Turnbull, Mangetout, and Daco with a solid remix for Mr. Atkins’s contribution.

The track we were solicited to review comes from the criminal mastermind of Tom2Trax, an experienced British DJ who has been strolling through the muddy and marshy terrain of the production realm since his first appearance on Sprechen’s “Edgy Future Discotheque Vol. 3” in February last year.

His “Heatwave Horizon” seems to have been named after our doomed status quo: The near future will be bleak, brace yourselves! But before we all die due to the current and forthcoming climate emergency events, let’s melt on a packed and sweaty dance floor, shall we? Tom2Trax’s cut is devoted to triggering momentary happiness not only at hot pool parties but also on dark indoor grounds: Frolic percussive elements, suitable vocal hooks, and a correct amount of acid set the mood of one of the best tracks of the compilation. 

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://sprechen.bandcamp.com/

Julian Sanza - Just (Original Mix)

We *are* living in the future. In fact, this text could've been written by an AI text generator, and you would probably not notic it, if it wasn't for the odd typo.

This track was conceived out of need to fantasize a utopian vision of the future, as the current version of the here and now can be rather depressing and discouraging. 

Davin Varda approached Middle Sky Boom, a fellow traveler, to collaborate on this track. He gladly accepted, and nailed the vocals in one sweet session. 

This release includes two more versions of the song. The extended dubby version by Troles Yuri is a more minimalistic alternative to the song, subtracting elements and stretching the pounding beat into a full club experience.

The Middle Sky Boom version is a remix of a remix, sending the track spinning around the earth in an abandoned spaceship full of chirping computers going in and out of sync.

Nuevo EP del dúo brasileño Moozeic titulado Continuum 6, en IRLV tenemos el estreno de uno de sus tracks Pandora 9 (Lorran Remix)

Artista: @moozeic
Sello: @kymakomplex


Moozeic, a project created by Joici Borges and Manuella Wintrich in 2015 from Jaraguá Do Sul, Brazil, returns to the Mexican imprint Kyma Komplex to reveal their latest extended play, titled 'Continuum 6'. The EP features two amazing original mixes and is accompanied by four outstanding remixes by Cometran, Luca Lucena, Forest Louche & Lorran.

Moozeic is created with the aim of expressing experiences and knowledge lived by the duo through music. The exceptional introduction to this journey is 'Continuum 6'. The resounding synthesizers and percussion beat create an ancestral atmosphere that begins to elevate us to a higher state of mind, allowing us to connect with the source.

Once the connection is made, 'Pandora 9' starts with the mystical, astral synthesizers and organic elements that melt and suck you into the endless tunnel, showing us the story of our life, our memories, our moments. It's our creation that makes each one distinct and irreplaceable. Crafted from unique experiences, it becomes an unparalleled masterpiece.

Regarding the remix duties of 'Continuum 6', it starts with Cometran, offering a cut that is more chaotic and energetic, filled with electrifying sounds, a solid arp-bass line, glitchy percussions, and a booming drum. Its hypnotic and frenetic quality continues in the trance state. Next comes Luca Lucena with his version of 'Pandora 9', featuring a resonant synth pad, alarms, punchy kicks, and the eastern vocal. This evokes an atmosphere reminiscent of bygone decades with retro-futuristic and spatial touches, showcasing a versatile sound.

The final two remixes, made by Forest Louche & Lorran, are equally remarkable. The first is oriented towards the dancefloor, based on futuristic timbres, immersed in a tropical forest, with clear vocals, reverberating percussions, and blazing synths. Finally, the EP concludes with Lorran’s remix. It's playful and mysterious, resonant and hallucinating, with haunting vocals that feel like they're taking you deep inside.

Smutsigt Smör & SUMORAI - Lost Mint

Exclusive: Brent - S.O.M.

London-based event-series Gradient launches its label and kicks off the new era with a four-tracker from Brent, which goes by the name of Digital Karma. The Liverpudlian therefore delivers four club-ready tracks weaving himself skillfully through various electronic music sub-genres and styles. 

The EP opens with the title track, a homage to 80s synth-sounds which are combined with an Edith Piaf cameo generating a flamboyant French vibe and guaranteeing the EP an exquisite start. 

Up next is the most housey take on the EP, namely Don’t Call The Dr. The lush 4/4 bassline in addition to the robotic vocals as well as the inclusion of rolling triplets in the track’s lows and the overall rather minimalistic approach turn the track to a magic bullet for the floors.

The B-side starts with Liquid Gold, probably the slower and more melodic version of the A2. Liquid Gold comes in with super sweet sung vocals, a lower BPM as the previous tracks and spaced out elements in reference to the EPs title Digital Karma, as latter always strikes back and here it hits audience hard.

Ultimately there’s (S.O.M.) or the most techy track of the EP. With a stamping yet groovey bassline, its vocoder-led ode to Liverpool and a memorable chord-sequence (S.O.M.) offers another musical facet of Brent, who manages to take his listeners all the way through different (sub)genres yet remains true to his style.
Brent's Digital Karma EP will be out on Gradient.

J1Mi (Beyonders) - Desire EP
BUY LINK: https://orcd.co/j1mi-desire
Label: Beyonders Music (https://soundcloud.com/beyondersmusic)
https://www.instagram.com/beyondersmusic
Release: 22nd September 2023

Accomplished UK mainstay J1Mi launches the long awaited Beyonders label with a fantastic first EP that captures the eclectic nature of his sound.

J1mi aka James Hadfield has been making all manner of sounds for years - both solo and as one half of Lizards - from house to disco, Balearic to techno, and always on revered labels like MeMeMe, Not An Animal, Leng, Futureboogie and Phonica. He is part of the Beyonders collective that was started by Jason and Mark Goodings of 90’s pioneering breaks and drum and bass duo Hidden Agenda. The collective is now back after a hiatus following Mark's tragic passing in 2016 and is as fruitful as ever with members including James as well as Mal Sharp and Nick Grimes and now a new label.

James continues to host Beyonders Present events in his hometown of Newcastle and has played at the likes of Glastonbury, Stowaway and Pikes this year, as well as across Europe in the past. Luke Una and Man Power are big supporters of his work and this is the first EP from the collective and label, with the following four all mastered and ready to go over the next year.

The brilliant 'Sixes Now' has a menacing synth screwing about the mix before percussive grooves and elastic bass arrive to lock you into a dark disco groove full of menace and suspense. The thumping 'Modern Maze' is another hugely inventive sound with rickety rhythms, erotic vocal coos and wiry synths. A bewitching breakdown brings acoustic guitars and places the vocal front and centre before the punchy house kicks come back once more.
'Desire' featuring Crazy P vocalist Danielle Moore is an indie disco cut with jazzy chords and playful funk riffs that lift the spirits and cruise on smooth grooves. Closer 'Japanese Kipling' is a prickly brew with off-grid hots and vocal sounds, distant hits of melody and dubby rhythms that are wonderfully intoxicating.

This standout first EP very much sets the scene for what is sure to be a crucial UK label.

Exclusive: Star_Dub - Voodub_5

Making a welcome return to the DUBWAX/ RAWAX label is Matt Star, aka Star_Dub, delving further into his bass-heavy sonic explorations after 2021's initial Voodub EP.

As with the first EP, this second offering simply has numbered track titles, following tracks 1-4 on the first 12". So let's start at Voodub_5! As you'd expect, there is a sumptuous amount of delay-laden warmth on the track, but there's much more too. The beats are crisp, the synths are fizzing with energy, the percussion has a lovely clubby swing especially in the latter stages of the track. The FX sounds which run through the track give an underwater vibe to some of the sounds, which creates a supremely tripped-out added flow. A superb opening track to set the scene. 

Voodub_6 is a much deeper affair altogether, the emphasis very heavily shifted to the classic dub flavours. The kicks and bass are amazingly low, there is almost no to-end percussion to speak of and what there is sits very carefully low-down in the mix. The stabs and FX all have a beautifully layered presence, complimenting the other sounds by keeping high in the mix, almost drifting above the kicks and bass. This is truly excellent in every way and a brilliant example of how to produce dub grooves. 

Opening the B-side is Voodub_7, which is ultimately a dum-led groove, the delays working on the percussive sounds, a low stabby bass hitting every few beats and some gorgeous pads floating in and out of the track. The beats have a rattling sound which is excellent, as this carries the track along, despite it only seemingly being made up of several component parts. Another spot-on heads-down vibe for the discerning dancefloor. 

For Voodub_8 the vibe leans into slightly eerie territory, as the light synth sounds and keys seem to move into an off-centre sound, with the kicks and toms subtly rolling underneath. The keys have something of an old children's 'music box' resonance, perhaps explaining the eerie vibe, which is no bad thing at all. Very definitely the deepest track on the EP, it's yet another showcase of club-ready but immensely layered house music, with its cap doffed to the production styles of Jamaican dub legends. This is an absolutely brilliant EP, as it has warm-up, mid-set and main-set grooves, so any DJ worth their salt should get this in their collection.

Star_Dub Voodub EP 2 is a out on RAWAX.

Taken from "Red Pig Flower - We Need Space EP (Adam's Bite)".  Out October 2023. Buy here : https://adamsbite.bandcamp.com/music

Red Pig Flower delivers her ‘We Need Space’ EP via Switzerland’s Adam’s Bite thisOctober, comprising four original compisition’s from the Korean-Japanese artist.
The past decade has seen Red Pig Flower’s unfaltering drive and ambition as a producer and DJ take her across the globe to play at hotspots all over, from Berlin’s Panorama Bar
and Hoppetosse to Tokyo’s WOMB, Concrete Bar Seoul, Pikes Ibiza and beyond. On top of this Red Pig Flower has a growing back catalogue of releases and co-runs the Tokyo based Sound Of Vast imprint alongside Knock. Here though, we see Red offering up her
new EP via Swiss imprint Adam’s Bite, home to music from the likes of Nu Zau, Barac,
Cristi Cons, Traumer and Ion Ludwig, a perfect home for her psychedelia infused stripped back house sound.
Up first is the original version of title-track ‘We Need Space’, a merging of winding bass grooves, skippy percussion, modulating, bubbling synths ebbing and flowing amongst one another while a hypnotic, spoken word vocal winds within the groove throughout. An instrumental version follows next, as the name would suggest, pulling back the vocal elements for a more robust, drum driven feel.
‘Separation’ then opens the flip-side with a more frenzied feel via and amalgamation of vacillating synth flutters, dubbed out percussion and bumpy low-slung drums which all dynamically evolve and retract throughout. ‘The Feeling’ then completes the EP, diving back into deeper realms with murky atmospherics, vocal chants and gritty stabs at its core, underpinned by a bouncy stab led bass groove and crisp, crunchy drums.

Harald Grosskopf, Tyler Ov Gaia - Fenysia

With this vinyl-only release Future Boogie's "The Robinson" continue their personal voyage into the shades of house never forgetting their roots deeply linked to the second wave of Chicago House and the distinctive sound of Italo House. This new effort consists in two tracks per side: two original cuts and in as many powerful remixes by the U.S. legends of the game Fred P and Trinidadian Deep.

Taste Rec. keeps the pressure high with an EP that unleash pulsating beats and groovy bass lines merged perfectly with soulful melodies, tribal percussions and a special Kora solo recorded live. Dreamy atmospheres alongside a four to the floor rhythms is the philosophy we chase and we prove it still delivering a record suitable both for clubs or private underground events.

PREMIERE: The Robinson - Native Faith (Trinidadian Deep Remix)

Words by Kristan J Caryl

As an export of one of the fastest rising electronic hotbeds in the UK, established Belfast DJ and producer Jordan is developing his eponymous night into a brand new label for 2016. Featuring on point and house and techno from the man himself, Nocturne will also call upon plenty of high profile remixers and really aims to keep the spotlight on the exciting Northern Irish scene.

Nocturne, which started out as an illicit afterhours gathering and has also spawned a Saturday off-shoot, The Night Institute, is a party that is very much setting the local agenda and as such has gotten plenty of kudos thanks to tasteful bookings like Roman Flugel, Session Victim and Gerd Janson.

After the success of the parties, the logical next step is to develop the brand into an outlet for quality club beats.  The man behind it all is Jordan McCuaig, someone who has impressed with releases on Luke Solomon's Classic Music Company, Extended Play and Made Fresh Daily. Like his home city, he is very much a star on the rise, as this first new EP on his own label proves.

Expert opener ‘Killing Mockingbirds’ is a jostling, busy cut with warm and dubby drums, loose claps and a fat bass line that rips right through the middle. It’s fresh and inviting and has some well sculpted synths to add colour and heat.

On remix duties first is Borrowed Identity, one of the breakout stars of recent times who releases on DVS1’s Mistress label. His take on the original is expressive indeed, and the result is a peak time cut with hulking drums, catchy chords and knotted bass riffs that really get you going.

Next, ’The Block’ is a classically inclined house cut with a wild and rich bassline spraying about between pinging kick drums, spangled synths and explosive snares and is a truly dynamic workout that will make every dance floor jack.

The last of the originals is ‘Strung Out’, and it has rinsing breakbeats, wild, pitch-bending tones and a dark jungle energy that makes it perfect for freakier late night sessions.

This one gets remixed in style by Adesse Versions, the acclaimed British techno talent who runs his own label and relates his killer wares on others like Numbers and Local Talk. In his hands it is an expansive, tough house groove with punchy kicks and perfectly smeared synths bringing a great sense of soul to the table.

This is the start of a sure to be exciting new label that pays homage to its local roots as well as to Jordan’s own well informed dance music understanding. As such, you should waste no time in getting behind it.
