SEPTEMBER 13, 2024—Today, the freshly minted StrataSonic Records officially unveils itself with a brand new release from Parisian house music mastermind and Apollonia ringleader Dan Ghenacia. Ghenacia’s three-track Rouge ou Noir EP is out now. 

The title track opens up with looped, funky guitar riffs and neon synths, which wind their way through dusty, dynamic drums. “Chilly” bustles with a blend of louche rhythms and rugged synth arps that dart about the mix—it also gets a low-slung, dubbed-out mix to round out the release. Ghenacia’s knowledge of house music, which he’s accumulated over the last 25-plus years DJing, hosting essential parties, and running vital labels, is crystal clear on this fantastic new solo EP. "Everything unfolded at a dizzying pace,” says Dan Ghenacia on creating the new EP. “Five days in a dream studio in Los Angeles led to Rouge ou Noir, a surreal and psychedelic experience with funky vibes. StrataSonic, this young label, is showing boundless creativity with its team to maximize the release's impact."

ABOUT DAN GHENACIA
Dan Ghenacia has toured the globe over three decades, solo and as part of Apollonia, the supergroup that epitomizes the sound and community of underground house music. His story began in his early 20s when, after spending a year soaking up West Coast house music and psychedelia in San Diego, he opened his store, Traffic Records, in Paris. This allowed him to import and show off sounds he discovered in California, and he soon started DJing all over Paris. He became an early Circoloco resident at DC10 in 2004 and still, to this day, spends his summers living in Ibiza. This year, he’s performed all-night-long Apollonia sets at fabric in London and at Jamie Jones’ opening Paradise party at Amnesia in Ibiza.

Invoking shades of ‘90s and ‘00s masters like DJ Shadow and Portishead, both tracks, “Breather” and “Bruv,” illustrate time-lost scenes of sophisticated yet hallucinogenic instrumentation and percussion that could belong in upscale jazz clubs or woozy after-hours sessions. Breather expands the label’s breadth from timeless breaks and house music to include crackling, mind-altering trip-hop, acid jazz, and downtempo. The two songs are the building blocks for a larger, forthcoming body of work by ANIML, set for release in early 2025 alongside a vinyl release, video, and extras.

Recognized by both mainstream (Billboard) and underground (Beatportal) tastemakers alike, StrataSonic was created to empower artists and explore the depths of their musical expression free from the confines of genre. From uptempo house to tribal to ambient, the label celebrates experimentation, champions artistic freedom, and embraces the beauty of non-conformity. Each release on the label will be available on vinyl and be accompanied by a music video.

Everything Liquid is a brand-new duo formed in LA. This is their first outing, and it speaks to a pair who have some serious studio chops. They have immediately cooked up a highly developed sound that showcases masterful drum programming, a range of organic and synthetic sound designs and great balance between dynamic grooves and musical synths that leave a lasting impression. 

The EP opens with 'No Signal' featuring Chicago's Jamaican-American singer-songwriter Jesse Boykins III who has previously featured alongside the likes of Hudson Mohawke, Tiga and Machinedrum. It's a thrilling broken beat cut with punchy rhythms oﬀset by the gorgeous falsetto vocals that bring smoky soul next to expressive synth lines and lush chords. The dub version is pared back to the kinetic beats and meticulous percussion for direct dancefloor action. 

The superb 'L A R P' is another masterfully programmed blend of warm, smeared chords and prickly broken beat patterns that sweep you oﬀ your feet and 'Time' then gets more deep and late night. Sultry spoken words bring a sense of intimacy to the organic grooves that rise and fall beneath lingering melancholic keys. Finally, 'Airbud' is an almost eight-minute synth symphony that takes you on a journey through widescreen worlds. Some pads flicker like a dodgy light build, some arc up in grandiose fashion and others twinkle like distant stars. It's a trippy place to get lost.

Today, Tom Vek shares the latest single from We Have Sound Remixed—the 20th anniversary reimagining of his cult debut album, arriving October 2 via StrataSonic Records.

Following Dave Glass Animals’ remix of “C-C (You Set the Fire in Me)” and Everything Everything’s rework of “Nothing But Green Lights,” London-based indie-electronic outfit Is Tropical takes the reins with a fresh interpretation of “I Ain’t Saying My Goodbyes.” Known for their genre-blurring sound throughout the 2010s, the group infuses the track with propulsive rhythms, raw textures, and a dancefloor-ready edge that casts the original in a new light.

“This song was on my soundtrack of leaving my hometown and moving up to London. Great memories of Shoreditch when it was full of squats and club line-ups were so eclectic. When there were still clubs in central London, this track was always played at FROG by the iconic DJs Danny Varley & Tom Frog! I remember the time fondly with a filter of K cider, brogues kept together with duct tape and no socks, regretamine and of course strobes. Shame that the camera phone was at early development as we’d have more archives to cringe through; as the glow sticks fade into lower back problems. But it be a seed that turns into the dancetree our children will rave under!”  — IS TROPICAL

Emerging from South London squats in 2009, IS TROPICAL carved out a cult following with their jagged and euphoric, sharp-edged pop with a nomadic sensibility. Tagged at different times as indie, electronic, punk, and “doss-pop,” IS TROPICAL signed early on to beloved French brand/record label Kitsuné and quickly became international adventurers, touring everywhere from Ghana to Mongolia, Russia to Peru, and sharing stages with LCD Soundsystem, Sonic Youth, Hole, and Klaxons.

We Have Sound Remixed is a rare kind of tribute, curated by Vek himself, with each artist handpicked and invited to reinterpret the record that helped shape their creative DNA. The result is a celebration of We Have Sound not only as a pivotal album of the 2000s, but as a blueprint for the fusion of guitar music, DIY electronica, and sharp-edged pop that now defines a generation of UK and alternative acts.


With contributions from alt-J’s Gus Unger-Hamilton, Everything Everything, Porij, Is Tropical, Anna Prior, Dutch Uncles, Baths, Vivid Fever Dreams, and Coby Sey, this project cements Tom Vek’s role as a cult figure whose music remains eerily current — and deeply influential — two decades on.
