CROATIA IN DUB is a multidisciplinary project that blends traditional Croatian vocal music with contemporary electronic music reinterpretations.

The reinterpretation of the folk songs helps to share them in a new context and bridge the gap between folk traditions and modern electronic music.

Developed by italian producer and multi-instrumentalist Lo.Renzo the project features the Zagreb-based vocal ensemble Čipkice.

The documentary, filmed by Camera Obscura (Zagreb) tells the story of the project and how is possible to move from cultural appropriation to cultural appreciation, watch the teaser: youtu.be/xnT40H7nu1k

Persian Empire - one more thing columbo

“He who fights too long against dragons becomes a dragon himself; and if you gaze too long into the abyss, the abyss will gaze into you.”

― Friedrich Nietzsche

Cold Heart, Warm Embrace

Balancing his time between working as a touring drummer & creating his own music at home in Brooklyn, Steve Bryant, p/k/a Cru the Dynamic, draws influence from a wide range of musical settings. His experience behind the kit influences his production style as much as his live playing is informed by the electronically produced beats of hip-hop, drum n’ bass, trap and footwork.

Bryant follows up 2017’s The Quick EP, with Cuts, his first full length album on Detroit’s YHS Records. Cuts, drawing its name from the micro-sliced samples peppered throughout many of the tracks, blends the skittering rhythms of footwork with the head-nod inducing half-time pulse of hip-hop. Digital and analogue intersect in this body of work from an artist who has his feet firmly planted in both worlds.

Throughout the 37-minute journey, club-ready bangers like “Passive Fist” and “Now Put ‘em Out” are nestled between epic compositions such as “Safe Party” and “Drunk Duke”, while low-key coolers “Learnin & Earnin” and “T Daze” provide breathers from the breakneck pace of this album. Strap in, “Cuts” is both a euphoric and dizzying ride.

Helsinki may not be the hotspot for up-and-coming producers yet, but Misha is about to change this. The half Finnish, half Ukrainian beatmaker is leading the new wave of Scandinavian producers. After a couple of releases via Chillhop Misha follows up with his first solo EP on Melting Pot Music. It is called “Midnight Sun”.

“Midnight Sun” is dedicated to Finnish summers full of serenity. In midsummer Helsinki has no real night time. During this natural phenomenon the sun never sinks beyond the horizon for a certain period of time. In the Northern parts of Finland, it lasts over 2 months. Locals receive it with an incredulous joy after realizing that they've survived another long and cold winter with no sunlight. This midsummer madness is the backdrop for Misha’s very own ode to idle
summer days and mellow city nights, when all worries are postponed till the next winter. We recommend listening to “Midnight Sun” after visiting a sauna with a bottle of beer, some herb and a bunch of friends. The perfect soundtrack for a laidback evening.

The EP oscillates between dreamy slow-jams and up-tempo rhythms. R&B cuts are followed by mesmerizing 80s-funk-homages and Misha manages to center all of his songs around his eclectic trade-mark groove somewhere between head nod and dance-off. Misha is never afraid to push himself out of his creative comfort-zone. On “Midnight Sun” he got help and inspiration from multiple artists. Aspiring vocalists like Jesse Markin or Ashley DuBose, as well as fellow
beatmakers like Monma or cocabona.

On this release Misha even got the chance to work with Finnish boogie legend Jussi Halme, who laid down some cold keyboard routines on three of six tracks. The two musicians initially
linked up after Misha had commented a YouTube video of Jussi Halme’s song “Early Evening in Brazil”. When Jussi personally replied, they did not only become friends, but they also produced a new version of the track. On “Midnight Sun” Misha and Jussi remade Jussi’s disco cut “Funny Funk” and turned it into a full-blown jam.
