exclusive | Pohl - Cvsrd | Fresh Tunez

Pohl, the Madrid-based producer, makes a triumphant return to the System Error family with his latest offering, the Shinobi EP, released on their sub-label Fresh Tunez. Following his celebrated 2020 release on LowMoneyMusicLove, Pohl solidifies his reputation for crafting intricate, groove-infused tracks that blend genre elements with finesse. The "Shinobi EP" is no exception, featuring four meticulously produced tracks that showcase his signature sound. Among these, the A2 track "CVRSD" stands out as a masterclass in combining deep house with subtle hip-hop influences, creating a vibe that’s both laid-back and sophisticated.

"CVRSD" is an immediate standout on the "Shinobi EP", thanks to its intriguing fusion of styles. The track opens with a deep, resonant synthline that sets the tone for what unfolds as a carefully constructed soundscape. The bassline is rich and full, giving the track a weighty foundation that is characteristic of Deep House, yet Pohl’s approach is anything but conventional. Instead of leaning into the predictable, he introduces a layer of vocals that adds a refreshing twist.

The vocal elements in "CVRSD" are a blend of slightly HipHop-esque tones and a smooth Spanish lead vocal, which together infuse the track with an urban, cosmopolitan flavor. The interplay between the deep, enveloping house groove and these vocal touches is what elevates "CVRSD" from being just another deep house cut to something more distinctive. The track maintains a steady, almost hypnotic rhythm, allowing the listener to sink into its groove while the subtle complexities reveal themselves with each listen.

What’s particularly impressive about "CVRSD" is how Pohl manages to keep the track laid-back yet engaging. There’s a certain elegance to the way the elements are arranged – nothing feels overdone, and every sound has its place. This restraint gives the track a classy, polished feel, making it suitable for both casual listening and more focused sessions on the dancefloor. The deep house influences are clear, but the addition of the Spanish vocal adds a touch of warmth and identity that feels authentically Pohl.

In "CVRSD," Pohl delivers a track that encapsulates his ability to blend genres seamlessly while maintaining a cohesive, sophisticated sound. The deep synthline, coupled with HipHop influenced and Spanish vocals, creates a track that is both smooth and intriguing, perfect for those who appreciate subtlety in their house music. As part of the Shinobi EP, "CVRSD" highlights Pohl’s continued evolution as a producer and his knack for crafting grooves that are as thoughtful as they are danceable. With this release, Pohl once again proves why he’s a key figure in the System Error family, and why his work continues to resonate with a growing audience.

exclusive | Melgar - Toxic Waste | Fresh Tunez

"Toxic Waste," the A2 track on Fresh Tunez latest outing "Sound of a Past Time" by Pau Melgar, presents an audacious leap into the cutting-edge underground soundscape, combining breakbeat rhythms with an atmospheric touch that feels both groovy and cinematic. Under the careful curation of Moses Mawila’s sub-label to System Error, Pau Melgar crafts a distinctive piece that resonates deeply with the label’s ethos of pushing sound-boundaries.

Opening with a haunting bleep-laden intro, "Toxic Waste" soon dives into a labyrinth of intricate breakbeat rhythms that harken back to the genre's early experimental phases, while simultaneously sounding utterly contemporary. The track thrives on its dual nature—managing to maintain a spacious, almost ethereal atmosphere while propelling listeners forward with its infectious groove. The synth line is the star of the show: hypnotic, catchy, and laced with just enough grit to keep you anchored in the underground.

The track’s groove beckons you to move, yet its layers of detailed production, particularly the bleepy nuances and the evolving sound design, create a sense of space that feels almost otherworldly. It's as much a peak-time anthem as it is a sound journey—perfectly suited for late-night sets where the dance floor craves both depth and energy.

In "Toxic Waste", Pau Melgar expertly fuses breakbeat nostalgia with forward-thinking production, resulting in a complex yet accessible tune that lingers in the mind long after its final echoes fade. "Toxic Waste" is not just a dancefloor filler—it’s a piece that beckons deeper exploration, embodying the subversive spirit of Fresh Tunez and System Error’s relentless pursuit of underground excellence.

exclusive | Infinity Plus One - Redemption | Fresh Tunez

Infinity Plus One, a stalwart of London’s underground electronica scene since the 1990s, unveils a multifaceted EP, “Redemption“ on the Fresh Tunez imprint. Known for crafting sonic experiences that seamlessly balance depth and danceability, the producer invites us into a world where intricate textures and rhythmic prowess converge. While the EP as a whole offers a journey through a spectrum of moods, it is the title track on the A-side that stands out as a masterful interplay of dreamlike ambiance and kinetic energy.

“Redemption“ opens with a lush soundscape of rich, dreamy chords that immediately command attention. These celestial tones set a contemplative mood, layering an otherworldly serenity over the composition. As the piece unfolds, the drums take center stage—energetic yet measured, they drive the track forward with a buoyant vitality. The contrast between the airy, ethereal harmonies and the crisp, propulsive rhythm is striking, creating a tension that keeps the listener enthralled. This dynamic interplay lends the track a duality: while its shimmering melodies transport the listener into a trance-like haze, the drum patterns keep the feet firmly planted on the dancefloor.

A hallmark of Infinity Plus One’s production is the ability to imbue tracks with both emotional resonance and physical immediacy, and “Redemption“ is no exception. The meticulous attention to detail—from the subtle, reverberant flourishes to the ebb and flow of its percussive elements—showcases a seasoned hand at work. This is a track that thrives not just in the confines of a DJ set but also as a standalone piece of art, inviting repeated listens to uncover its layers.

As part of an EP that oscillates between brooding basslines, break-infused grooves, and sultry downtempo interludes, “Redemption“ offers a sublime midpoint. It bridges the gap between the EP’s introspective opener and its more rhythmically assertive B-side offerings, providing an emotional and sonic anchor. Infinity Plus One’s ability to merge dreamlike textures with the immediacy of dance music makes “Redemption“ an essential listen, whether you’re chasing moments of introspection or commanding a packed dancefloor.

In conclusion, Infinity Plus One continues to solidify his reputation as a producer of distinction with this Fresh Tunez release. The “Redemption“ track, in particular, exemplifies his knack for crafting music that is as evocative as it is energizing. With its ethereal chords and dynamic drum work, it is a testament to the enduring allure of thoughtful, well-executed electronica. A jewel in the crown of London’s underground scene, this track is destined to resonate far beyond its origins.
