In celebration of both artists performing in London this month, Max Cooper is offering this wonderful remix of his dear friend Nils Frahm, who'll perform an electronic set on October 18 as part of The Hydra: Erased Tapes label night at the Village Underground.

Tickets available via Resident Advisor:

In Max's own words:

'Nils Frahm is one of the best artists out there in my opinion, with pretty much the best live show I've ever seen. But aside from all that, this was just a really enjoyable remix to work on because the original is such a great piece of music, and seemingly so well suited to what I wanted to do with it - which was to try and turn Nils' instrumental jam on his Juno, into something house/techno/club/44 compatible, but still carrying the class and feeling of the original. It was one of those remixes that just seemed to fit and flow easily, with minimum strain and maximum enjoyment on my part - usually a good sign for a remix (the one's that have to be forced never seem to quite get there).

Not only is this one of the best remix projects I've been lucky enough to be involved with, it's also available totally free for you to download and share as you like, courtesy of Erased Tapes and Decibel festival where myself and Nils played last weekend, as well as XLR8R, who were good enough to first feature the 'For' remix.

And of course, it's also a thank you to YOU for listening an supporting my work over the years....thank you and I hope you like the track!....

ps if you're in London on the 18th, Nils is playing an Erased Tapes showcase at Village Underground.'

'Frahm's beautiful, clever piano melodies are a perfect match for Cooper's emotional, distinctive breed of production, blurring lines between the recital hall and the dance floor.' – Earmilk

Finally, I can talk about this - my debut album Human is coming next year, March 10. This is the first single from it, Adrift, with my long running vocal collaborator Kathrin deBoer. I had a simple piano chord progression and a randomised percussion idea to give to Kathrin, who captured the feeling beautifully with her lyrics and jazz influenced vocal approach. It's more of a personal piece of music for me than a club track, which is the approach I've taken for the whole album. 
 
More previews, a couple more singles (and some really amazing remixers!) to follow between now and March.

Jazz Drums - Bootleg Mix

What happens if you take 3 great jazz musicians, put them in recording studio, and throw electronic music at them?

This project was an experiment into exactly that, with my long running collaborator Kathrin deBoer on vocals, and the greatest trumpet player I've yet to hear - Quentin Collins, with Jack Stevens on bass for this one track from the EP too. 

We made some recordings where Kathrin and Quentin played at the same time, which was really interesting - I love the way you can hear Kathrin and Quentin almost talking to each other during the track, they sort of imitate and bounce off each other as they go along. They were having a lot of fun during the recordings and I think it comes through.

The fun we were having making the recordings was aided by the fact that Gearbox records (who are releasing the EP 6th Oct on vinyl, and 3rd Nov on digital) had provided Mark Ronson's recording studio for us to work in, so it was a pleasure all round.

There are 3 more tracks to come from the release, 2 ambient, and one absolute abomination where I wanted to see what would happen if I made the most f*&ked up track I could and then asked them to improvise over it - more clips and info coming soon.

If you want to catch Quentin Collins playing, he does regular gigs in London at Ronnie Scotts, amongst other places. And Kathrin deBoer has also launched a new solo project under her name, which is also touring and highly recommended.

怀旧, 懷舊..

I originally wrote this as a lullaby for a girl over a year ago, and over the year it turned into what it is today. There much more to say, but sometimes things are better left imagined. Thanks Michael from Illuminor for the glorious lyrics and vocals, and thank you Silk Music for charming me into releasing some progressive breaks :)


--- SILK --- 
With his debut artist album officially arriving to stores in a fortnight, American sensation Dan Sieg (of Dan & Sam) has undoubtedly emerged as one of the leaders of Silk Royal. A thrilling series of releases by Dan in the proceeding months begins with "No Way Back Up," the first single from his forthcoming "A Sense Of Wonder" artist album. Dan has never shied away from writing emotive vocal anthems; his past Dan & Sam hit "Walls," featuring Maxx Hennard, proved to be one of the most supported singles in the history of our imprint. It is our great joy to present a new collaboration between Dan and Silk veteran duo Illuminor, who not only have been producing trance & progressive hits of their own of late, but who also are capable of writing and performing breathtaking vocals.

In "No Way Back Up," a gentle breakbeat slowly picks up steam, while a variety of bell-tinged hooks and other supporting melodies contribute a lush soundscape. The patient crescendo ultimately culminates into a stunning chorus by Michael Ware of Illuminor, who sings of the tragic dissolution of a relationship. Michael profoundly delivers the metaphor of a fall too painful and far, from which to recover.

Luke Mandala - Rainshine

With the release of this album Sirion shows its versatility and returns to its original label character to a certain extent. Repetitive dance music combined with progressive accents and profound expression. The songs of Midnight Pulse appear in gloomy facets from the depths of faraway realms. The listener is sent on a mystical journey and enchanted by the voice of Myrto Stylou. She completes the Greek combo ideally and gives the tracks a subtle, a partial or a main depth with her exciting range of song.
On the album there are seven original pieces in various intensities. They range from ambient moods to strong propulsive rhythms and still act as a whole unit. The detail-studded album stays gripping for the audience and exudes a cozy atmosphere, especially probably because of his epic appearance full of energy. Yes, let this colossal piece impress you.

Midnight Pulse - Stars Above feat. Myrto Stylou

Created in the isolation of the British countryside, Desert Sound Colony is inspired by faintly remembered sounds and almost forgotten memories. The thread running through the melodic, visceral tracks touch on a sense of melancholy present within us all.
Occupying a space somewhere between ‘60s Psychedelia and the pulsating sounds of future-clubs, Desert Sound Colony is both infectious and ethereal, shrouding the listener in a gentle, rhythmical canopy.

LANKS - Settle Down

Au Dré is the new collaborative project of Melbourne producer JamBau and vocalist/trumpeter Audrey Powne. The pair was bought together over a shared love of maximalist electronic music by the likes of Pomrad, Lone and Hudson Mohawke  and an equally affectionate passion for late 70‘s/early 80’s Disco/Dance music. Fusing together these two infatuations Au Dré deliver the perfect combination of a contemporary 'banger' with the sophistication and energy of old school funk and R’n’B.

Their debut single 'Fool Me' is about that moment you realise someone has moved on faster than you, that weird mixture of anger, hatred, nostalgia and the realisation maybe you're "losing" the break-up. Musically it is a hail to 90's house/RnB, bringing together a combination of bright synths, punchy drum samples, soulful vocals, signature 90s piano riffs and horns. You can't help but bust a dance move listening to 'Fool Me.'
