Hello friends and music enthusiasts!

TAKT Mix Series is my first introduction to an artist, our first correspondence or conversation in person. 
Remember how you encountered a DJ at a bar or in the smoking area after their performance and struck up a conversation on topics close to both of you. Or perhaps you accidentally stumbled upon an unfamiliar producer in the studio and discovered new music...
That's why in this mix series, I try to find out the journey the artist has taken and what music they hold with great love in their library.

Welcome and enjoy listening!
Leiba

TAKT Mix Series

The next mix has once again arrived from Moscow, from DJ and producer sardalove. Inside is a dark and dynamic electronic sound that blends tribal and broken rhythms, flirting with African and Brazilian motifs.

Adam writes music in the styles of electro, ghetto-tech, and baile, expressing a special love for strong drum patterns, thick bass, and resonant ringing synths.
Currently, his tracks can be found on compilations such as Low Income $quad - LI$033, Welofi - Meta House VA, and Club Designs - CDMUSIC008. And very soon, his solo EP will be released on Jade.

Timur Khusainov aka ESB (RU). Musician from Kazan (Tatarstan), Russia Federation who loves Micro & Clockwork Music. 
Resident of @utrorec & one of the founders of @maturlabel. 

It's always difficult to talk about oneself and describe one's perspective from the outside, which is why I believe that the material I've prepared should tell you much more. Currently, I'm in the final stages of working on my album, as well as preparing my other works for release. The mix was recorded in August 2023 at a party dedicated to the 2nd anniversary of the Walkers formation, in the historical center of Nizhny Novgorod. Since TAKT originated there, I never once thought that the mix could appear anywhere else!

Muted Tones x TAKT [Curated by M. Kupper, Nizhny Novgorod]

The symbol on side A is a more than 3000y old Chinese letter signifying "dance", probably a shamanic dance for the gods or a rain dance.
The illustrations on side B are both from France, the menhir is the "Dame de Saint Sernin" and the bison "de la Madeleine".
Picture in the background was taken in Yakushima, a southern island in Japan that is the model for Gibli's Princess Mononoke

Listen to "Plamya Ognya (DR69 Remix)" by Lay-Far Feat. Kotzi Brown  taken from “True, Necessary, Kind Remixes”  out on 31st May via STVOL in collaboration with In-Beat-Ween Music

Pre-save: https://band.link/TNKR

1 year after releasing his 5th long-play “True, Necessary, Kind” Alexander Lay-Far prepared a conceptual follow-up - a compilation of remixes and reinterpretations from young underground heroes, new exciting talents as well as some well-seasoned producers.

Pursuing the original album’s philosophy, in the autumn of 2023 Lay-Far announced an open remix competition to share the inspiration spark, ignite the intercultural dialogue and officially release the top 3 reworks as a result. 
However it didn’t go according to the plan! Submissions poured in from Germany, Spain, The UK, USA, Russia, Ireland, Indonesia, South Africa, etc., exceeding the expectations of quantity and most importantly quality! After taking quite some time to review all the remixes - the best of the best were selected.

And there you have it - a vivid yet comprehensive compilation of 15 high-quality remixes by the likes of Ant To Be, Super JV, Marco Lazovic, Bleep, Hermanito, Anderdog, Fluchtlink, Jetelmen, etc., ranging from Street Soul to Jungle, Deep and Afro House, UK Bass, Techno, Intelligent D’N’B, Breakbeat and Electro. 
Please enjoy these sincere works manifesting real creativity, soulfulness and depth, produced by the truth-seeking souls at the cross-roads of existing cultures and scenes.
