Moakz - Codename:Amen - Codename:RCRDS Launch Event Mix

The year is 2077. AI is dominant in the world and has evolved to the point that it is able to grow hybrids of organisms and primitive technology, which are capable of creating stunning melodies and intricate drums and bass evoking memories of happier days in a bygone era.

Part 2 of the ‘Drifting…’ trilogy of releases, ‘Keys For A Drifting Rose EP’ is the fourth release on Codename: RCRDS, the new label from Southampton-based jungle, 160 and atmospheric crew Codename: Amen. The release and label channel the energy of the 90’s rave era, pushing the sound forward into exciting new directions for 2023. The ‘Drifting…’ series focusses specifically on more atmospheric / melodic tracks, and again presents a diverse international roster of artists – this time hailing from Serbia, Finland, the UK and USA.

Keys For A Drifting Rose commences with ‘The One’ by the atmos master Okee, a dreamy inward looking roller for the ages, alternating haunting vocals perfectly capturing feelings of post-rave isolation. Man of the moment Mineral returns to the label with ‘Shallow’, contrasting chopped breaks, atmospheric tones and deep rumbling basses in a beautiful example of his truly unique sound.

Next up we find the prolific NonRev in commanding form, with the mysterious and powerful roller ‘Private Eye’, perfectly primed to get dancefloors moving with it’s rumbling basslines, intricate drum edits and catchy vocals, before the EP closes with Bottoni’s fascinating reworking of ‘Shallow’, where a half-time rhythm is interspersed with the breakbeat choppage and atmospherics of Mineral’s original, clearly demonstrating the talents of this unique and talent artist.

Bottoni - Mae [Premiere]

STRX006: Satellite Trax presents “Stone Wheel EP” - an arsenal of dancefloor anthems by Bottoni.

Pre-order: sat-era.bandcamp.com/album/stone-wheel-ep-strx006

The next offering from our in-demand Satellite Trax sublabel brings us just north of our HQ in Madison as we finally connect with an electrifying club music maker. When it comes to the Midwest, you really do not have to travel far to find a hardworking artist that is deserving of the spotlight.

Our first encounter with Bottoni and his growing collection of dancefloor sonics came in 2022 while digitally crate digging on Bandcamp. We were astonished to learn that these tracks were not coming from an unknown bedroom producer in the UK, but rather from an emerging talent out of the great state of Wisconsin. His work then made it to our friends at YUKU, a prolific label pushing forward-thinking art out of Prague. The familiarity in his sound implies that he is a student of formative club music from across the pond, yet his take on it feels more than just a nostalgic recreation.

Bottoni’s obsession with late-90s jungle and drum ‘n’ bass makes his productions feel like a balanced blend of rustic influences with modern, high-fidelity characteristics. This can be heard throughout “Stone Wheel EP,” his latest contribution to the global market of dancefloor weaponry. The project wastes no time in raising the energy with its title track - groovy percussive elements are layered over its heavy bassline, serving as a proper introduction. Already a favorite of our DJ allies that are giving it early playtime, “Mae” is a dark twist to the EP with its rattling low-end and off-kilter structure. “Dusk Pan” is a showcase of jungle down to its simplest form, where its breakbeats are allowed to shine and the sample selection can be flaunted. “Hellp” explores a jazzy side of the project, while still being held together by grueling bass and shuffling percussion. To demonstrate his passion for our music history, Bottoni recruited one of Chicago’s most prominent figures in its niche drum ‘n’ bass community. Stunna takes on remix duties for “Hellp,” turning up the tempo and fusing an old-school DnB style with soulful traits that leave it on an uplifting note.

Disclaimer: “Stone Wheel EP” contains serious bass weight. As some of Bottoni’s best work yet, the project solidifies that he is more than just an underground up-and-comer. He is ready to elevate his status from a renowned local DJ, to a household name in the dance music sphere. With each of his new releases freshening up the club circuit, we have no doubt that the growth in audience will happen soon enough.

Satellite Trax - an expansion of our core imprint that focuses on dance-centric music and its club roots; part of the foundation within our sonic heritage. This sublabel serves as a primary source of dancefloor weaponry for DJs and enthusiasts aiming to unveil the latest rhythms heard from around the electronic music sphere.

Written & produced by Sam Bottoni
"Hellp" remixed by Jay Cappo
