This Album travels between different genres, moving between electronica to more dance floor techno orientated tracks, always with a positive and feel-good vibe.

Blossom Kollektiv is proud to unveil their first full-length release since relaunching in 2022, with Porto’s Pixel82 and his first album “Infinity” set to make its appearance this June.

Pixel82 talks about this work, which was produced during a time of forced introspection and uncertainty, as a rediscovery of the past to find the future. He wanted to create an uplifting vibe for the songs on the album while still having a subtle dystopian feel in them.
To achieve this sound, he experimented with polarities and used sounds that are personal to himself including organic sounds from nature and even from his personal life with the use of a recording of the heartbeat from his own daughter.

During the nine-track expedition, the artist creates an honest tour de force,
without the constraints of making dance floor shakers and the end result is a highly effective trip that electronic music lovers around the world will adore, not only for listening but also with various moments that will work wonders on the dance floor. Each track is carefully crafted to play off the other with lively alluring synths, eclectic beats, and clever use of vocals throughout the album that seals each track together cohesively.

Beginning with “Breaking Free” its creative use of vox paired with uplifting synths sets the mood of the album that leads to the title track “Infinity”, an underground pop venture with the same feel-good vibe but with catchy vocals that are sure to be stuck in the listeners head long after hearing it. Then the broken beat tracks “Beyond” and “Alien World” whisk you off to strange new worlds with interesting broken beat drum patterns and synths that keep the same harmonious vibe as the rest of the album.

Moving on to the second half of the album “The Grid” takes you straight to the dance floor with bouncy synth lines and tight grooves that is sure to keep the energy high. “Space” and “Sunset” present the liveliest tracks on the album that are perfect for those early morning sunrise moments if used in a set but also very pleasant to the ear for home listening. Arriving at our next destination to slower jams with “Music Box” the minimalistic approach to the drums along with the pleasant melodies keeps everything woven tightly together until finally arriving at our final chapter. “Theta” brings everything effectively to an end with an ambient beatless experience that brilliantly wraps up the release and will keep the listener coming back for more.

The final message of the album leaves an impression of hope through the title “Infinity” that comes from what the artist calls a simple idea of a loop, the continuum of life, togetherness, and union, which he has seamlessly expressed through his own experience during a time of the unknown. As the listener takes an intimate tour of the album’s soundscapes, they will surely find the light at the end of the tunnel, either at the intimacy of their own home or on a sweaty dance floor.

RH007: Stevie Cox & Fossil Archive - Daydreamer EP
Remmah, 24 June 2022
BUY: https://fanlink.to/RH007

Following Anna Gram's Celestial Objects EP last summer, Hammer's Remmah label dips once again into the Glasgow talent pool to present a debut release from another of its most exciting resident DJs, in collaboration with a seasoned veteran of the UK techno scene.

A name sharply on the rise, Stevie Cox recently joined legends Harri, Domenic & Telford at as resident of the club’s flagship Saturday night party, Subculture - the longest running underground weekly house night in the world.

Operating under the guises of Fossil Archive and Roberto, Robert Kirkaldy has cemented himself as a trusted name over the years; building up an impressive discography that never wavers in quality, while playing regularly at some of the most respected clubs around the world, including fabric, Berghain and Tresor.

After meeting in Summer 2021, it quickly became apparent that the pair shared a strong musical connection which effortlessly translated itself into production. A debut release for Stevie and adding to Rob’s amazing catalogue; the Daydreamer EP is a club-ready, emotionally rich four-tracker.

The Daydreamer EP opens with 'Stolen Glances' - a deep, tunnely, dub techno-esque number that pairs soft, spacey effects with punchy drums. Next is 'Searching' - full of tension and dark, acid breaks inspired by the pair’s love for drum & bass, lifted by ethereal vocals from Kiara Scuro’s ZaaZaa. 'Daydreamer' is a hypnotic, feel-good heater that sounds like it was made to be played at the legendary Sub Club in Glasgow on a Saturday night. The EP closes off with a dreamy, stripped back DJ tool edit of 'Daydreamer' which is sleepy by name and nature.


Tracklist:
01. Stolen Glances
02. Searching ft. ZaaZaa
03. Daydreamer
04. Daydreamer [still sleepy mix]

All tracks produced and composed by Robert Kirkaldy & Stevie Cox
Vocals on Searching by Nadia Anderson

Fast becoming a regular favourite on the Street Tracks, Moodtrax serves up another belter of a single, gleaming with Italo disco and future house vibes!

On the ‘Hold Me’ single, the Bangor born producer & DJ continues to impress as he delivers two tracks of delectable dancefloor bizzness!

Classic Chicago house tropes are embraced on the title track, as thick DX bass and vocal samples simmer over a crisp four to the floor beat, resulting in a minimal and brooding deep jam!

Uplifting acid motifs are deployed on ‘Cosmic Matter’, as raw snare rolls and haunting pads unfurl in another classy production from Moodtrax, taking his cues from the original Trax Records recording artists, with a modern textural spin.

Release Text:
Alma Negra is back, this time with the first release from "The Alma Negra Live Band". Although the band has had many international gigs, this is the first release that Alma Negra recorded with their musicians live in the studio. Cooperation with musicians has become an important part of the Alma Negra Sound over the past 5 years.
"Mombasa to Lagos" is a straight Afrobeat with electronic influences. "Mombasa to Lagos" is a straight Afrobeat with electronic influences. A journey from east to west from Mombasa to Lagos. “San Jon” is a streetprosession in Cabo Verde to celebrate the Saint Jon (John). It’s a 3/4 rhythm played with drums and people dance. Taxi Radio is a wild taxi ride. Uptempo beat, reggae, wild percussions and nasty synths are combined in one track. With his remix, Mehmet Aslan expands the rhythmic variety with a Soca interpretation of San Jon. The song is a trippy track reminiscent of long club nights. Alma Negra's Night Mix rounds out the EP with a deep version of the original.

PREMIERE. The Alma Negra Live Band - San Jon [Alma Negra Records]

A duo making some serious noise of late, Latvian pairing Queer On Acid are on a roll following material on Dense & Pika's Kneaded Pains and an impressive remix of TERR and Daniel Watts on Clash Lion across recent months. Having made their first outing on Catz 'n Dogz's Steps Recordings at the start of summer, gaining support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Tiga, DJ Bone, TEED, Truncate and Anja Schneider, they make a quick return with a trio of shady and heady house cuts across their 'Better Days' EP, backed by a powerful, up-front remix from recent Pets Recordings signee LUPE.

Rajtan tajtan is a playful, reduplicative phrase used to describe a lively, rowdy party or commotion, a fitting theme for the tracks on this EP.

Rävspel has become a staple in our live set: a dry, dense, and cheeky workout that just refuses to let up. Raljera shifts the focus to clicky, smattering percussion riding over a steady low-end groove, topped with a mischievous synth line. Pyspunka builds its energy around a panicked sequence and a raw, distorted foundation, while Krokben keeps that distortion, while opening up more space and depth in its twisting, dimensional synth work. All in accordance with our vision of playful & mischievous but always genuine techno.

Crafted by Alexander Johansson & Mattias Fridell

Release date: 3 October.
