exclusive | Velvet Velour - Wave Wizard | MINDHELMET

Portugal-based producer Velvet Velour has quite an impressive musical output on labels such as Butter Side Up, Nuances de Nuit, Welt Discos or Small Hours. Now the artist contributes a six-tracker to Truly Madly's renowned imprint MINDHELMET, a mixture  of House with a deeper and minimalistic twist, nuances of Breaks and UKG and heavy basslines. As on previous outings Velvet Velour brilliantly masters the balance of creating basslines with catchy synth-sound sequences as he implements the latter perfectly clocked in his tracks, so that the tracks' frame smoothly goes over into something special. The before mentioned can strongly be witnessed on the B2, called Wave Wizard as Wave Wizard rightly stands for the moments the Wizard, Velvet Velour, creates when letting the chords flow over that carrying bassline. 

Velvet Velour's EP MINDHELMET 10 will be released soon.

PREMIERE: Mila Dietrich Feat. Velvet Velour - Echoes

After a full rotation of the sun we're back with something very special for DRBM07.

We present to you 62 solid gold minutes seamlessly weaved together by one of the smoothest DJ / producers going Velvet Velour. In a very short time he has become something of a household name in the scene with his distinct sound both in the studios and behind the decks. We are very lucky to call him a good friend and look forward to watching him rise to the top.

He'll take you places you've never been before... @velvet_velour

DRBM07 - Velvet Velour

Rapid-fire with the releases like it’s effortless, minimal donny Velvet Velour steps up with his latest 4-tracker. Strong tech house currents in a similar vein to Kepler’s recent ‘Lowlife’ EP, but with extra zonk - it’s a head turning label debut.

The growing catalogue of releases belies a relatively short time spent producing. That said, he’s already a key proponent of the sound’s contemporary vanguard and XK035 might be the most vital effort to date.

Playful moves from the off. All forward momentum but streamlined and precision-tooled for optimum velocity, both sides of the record kick it on a buoyant flex. Puckered, piquant groove in full effect as the Bristol native keeps things nice n’ direct.

From the lithe, zesty A-side to the sci-fi tendencies and intricate drum programming on display for the second half, this has all the hallmarks of a bullet proof 12”. Next level gear destined to light up dancefloors far and wide.
