Gregor Tresher kicks off 2015 looking to break new soil with his first ever full release for John Digweed's Bedrock Records.   

Last year was as hectic as ever for the Gregor and he came into it on high from the success of his artist album Nightcolours and having closed out 2013 by releasing an astonishing Laurent Garnier remix of the title track, on his own imprint.   Time to relax a little maybe? Not a chance. January saw the remixed version of the album hit the stores and this was backed within a few weeks by 'Taurus', Gregor's enticing collaboration with Petar Dundov. The summer saw him remix the Chymera classic 'Shadowdancer' and he closed 2014 with the superb 'Midas / Disturber' double-header.   

Somewhat of a musical chameleon, Tresher is as at home creating deeper shades of house for the likes of Moon Harbour and Ovum as he is techno rhythms for Music Man, Cocoon and Drumcode.   With label boss Digweed a huge fan, Bedrock is yet another perfect fit for the German and he opens his account with the mighty, melodic and Kraken'esque 'Goliath' and the razor-sharp lightning bolt that is 'Stormblade'.

<p>Kostas Maskalides returns to phobiq with two slammers, and the title track is up first, led by retro toms and shuffling drums, laced by cavernous effects and atomic squelches. Sasha Carassi&#8217;s interpretation of &#8220;I Got Love&#8221; is up next, where he pulls the gears back a bit and retains the original&#8217;s vocals, yet twisting them to taste while dry stabs and evolving synths unfold over the rocksteady groove. Closing up with the original mix of &#8220;I Got Love&#8221;, Kostas brings in mutated vocal snippets and distressed electronics, as his trademarked, frantic rhythm section clears everything in its way.</p>

02. Larose & Josef – Gate (Original Mix)
03. Larose & Josef - Light (Barber Remix)
04. Larose & Josef - Light (Bonaca Remix)

Release Info: 
Motek Music's next release comes from Canada and artists Larose and Josef. Larose has been a regular Motek member from his time living in London and now having moved back home to Montreal has teamed up with Josef for this bold and punchy EP 'Light / Gate'. 'Light', the darker of the two has strong driving bass tones and an industrial feel within the synth sounds, whilst detuning vocals provide focal points and weight to the production. 'Gate' has a strong presence but with a lighter feel than 'Light'. More air in the string synths and guitar add space and a layer of atmosphere as syncopation in the snare and percussion create elements to grab on and dance too. The track is finished and given its forward pushing feel with a pulsing 16th note lead.

Remixing on this release we welcome Barber and Bonaca. Having had Barber as part of lineups on past events, we are very happy to welcome him to the label with his take on 'Light.' He has kept the track dark but added crisp and sharp beats sections intertwined with the space within the bass to give the music bounce. A rich production full of builds and intrigue with subtle fills and tricks to add to the depth and quality. Finally Bonaca has delivered a hypnotic version of 'Light'. Mysterious bell sounds move over warm low and high pads to create the foundation to which hints of the original come though. Strong driving bass lines along with the subtle rise and fall in the arrangement keep the track strong for the dance floor.

The best therapy dealing with heart ship for any artist is to put it all into your music! 2016 has been a pivotal year for Belocca with a few unexpected curveballs thrown at him. However, with the longtime ambition of doing an artist album, this seemed the right time to put all in his debut album #AfterTenYears, which unfolds a much deeper, spheric and more techno Belocca.

Widely acclaimed techno pioneer ​Nicole Moudaber ​has delivered the release of her ​'Adoption' ​EP, a two-track production on ​Nicole​'s own ​MOOD ​label which sees the dynamic producer tackle two tracks from one of the most important innovators of dance music since the 90s,​ Moby.

Offering a heavy and grinding feel on her remix of ​Moby​'s 'Mere Anarchy'​, (taken from 2018 album 'Everything was beautiful, and nothing hurt') ​Moudaber packs the mix with haunting melodies, with the subtle use of orchestral sounds adding a hypnotic feel to the release. She goes on to spin a uniquely dark and twisted rework of 'Like a Motherless child', pitching down Moby's vocals to create a deep demonic sound, with both remixes verging into a range of immersive textures.

Nicole's ​MOOD has served as a home for an array of the most ​intriguing productions of recent times since launching 5 years ago, previously hosting names such as ​Carl Craig, ​Alvaro Am, Pan-Pot, Pleasurekraft ​and ​Carl Cox​, who Nicole​ recently collaborated with for her milestone 50th release on the imprint.

Lie2You - The time (Original Mix)

'ime is passing, another year for Wood, our beloved forest which is slowly becoming more and more beautiful and colorful with so many new genres. Ours is not only a search for something different to the others, but actually the search for something unique. We start this new year pleased to present to you the Italian born, Barcelona based, DJ and producer "Rodeman" who, after a great Ep for our limited series and after the excellent success of the single "Fifth Dimension", delivers to us a fantastic three-track EP called "Fireal". Rodeman presents his music working on a large variety of musical ideas that stay true to the London influences which flow into the deep and melodic techno scene. We immediately liked his way of building grooves that suddenly make you want to dance.

The first track is called "Fireal" which gives its name to the whole Ep. It is very introspective, dark and deep, but at the same time is surrounded by fresh rhythms and long atmospheric sounds. Immediately after we have "Lost in Orion" the second track, with a faster tempo created to enliven the musical history. Its celestial melody perfectly fills the sound spectrum while other sounds reminiscent of dub and house, gradually raise up making this a unique moment of hope and happiness. To close the Ep we have "Underground" a more aggressive track for the dance floor, a mix of various basslines combined with hypnotic sounds and transcendent melodies.'

Submerge is a breakthrough concept, and has revolutionized the music and clubbing scene in India.

Submerge was essentially born out of frustration. When we first began in 2003, it was because there was no alternative to the mainstream. No matter where you went, you got the same old music and the same tired experience.

So, we created a night where we could play the music that we wanted to hear, that we wanted to move to. We wanted to play the latest tracks from the global club scene because that’s what we were into. It wasn’t about catering to the masses; it was about being on the cutting-edge of music, listening to the best in House and Progressive music.

In the beginning, Submerge nights were getting smaller crowds of fifty people. They were some of our closest friends, and others who were just as obsessed about the musical experience as we were, people who were starved for Tribal, Electro and Tech House music. Very quickly the word spread and our friends grew rapidly in number. 50 turned to 100, then to 200, and 500. It continues to grow to this day.

In fact, most clubs in India have even changed the music they play. Submerge was first on the scene. We identified that thirst because it was our own and we were dying for it. The rest of India took note of our success and co-opted it for its marketability.

Submerge is always going to be about the musical experience, with Tribal, Electro, Tech, and Progressive House music brought to you by the best DJs from around the world, hosted all over India. We pride ourselves in finding the best tracks, even unreleased white labels still hot off the presses.
