Playground is releasing a very special compilation to celebrate nine years of life. A musical journey shared with dear friends, which expresses the living history of the label from its origins to the present. From the first illegal raves in Buenos Aires, to becoming an international artist's platform based in Barcelona. A long process of learning, growth and consolidation have passed. Nowadays, with an extensive catalog of more than 40 references Playground has a solid story to tell, always selecting an eclectic criterion and betting on diversity. Each launch reaffirms the commitment with an aesthetic freedom beyond any label.

The '9 Years Compilation' faithfully expresses our history, but above all our present, always with an eye looking to the future. 15 new original tracks carefully chosen to create a polychromatic musical adventure, with diverse nuances and intensities. From downtempo songs to listen at home, through music inspired by the new wave, the creative force of the jungle, the power of organic elements and psychedelic experimentation to the most convincing music for the club.

In this opportunity we advance in exclusive the powerful single from Local Suicide & Franz Matthews.

The comp is coming guys, stay tuned !

PREMIERE : Local Suicide & Franz Matthews - Love Terrorist

Berlin based power duo Local Suicide announce their long-awaited debut album ‘Eros Anikate’ released on their label Iptamenos Discos on May 13th, 2022. The title translates to ‘love invincible’ and draws influence from Sophocles’ play, ‘Antigone’ - an ancient Greek play based around tragedy in the aftermath of a civil war. ‘Eros Anikate’ will showcase the duo's renowned ‘technodisco’ sound, blending retro with modern elements, alongside moody baselines and haunting vocals, whilst featuring an array of exciting collaborators and friends including Curses, Hard Ton, Skelesys, Lee Stevens, The Hidden Cameras, Sissi Rada, Theus Mago, Kalipo, and Greek new wave legend Lena Platonos. 

 ‘Moustache’ , the third single taken from the album is a collaboration of Local Suicide with their longtime collaborator and friend, Buenos Aires native Skelesys. Sharing a love for the darker sounds you’d find in horror films and computer simulations, the 4/4 kick drum and woodwind like sounds manipulated into a frenzy bring us a rather interesting juxtaposition of playful horror.  

“This one started off as a hymn to Dali, but ended up being a love letter to a dude with a ‘stache”.  

While the track crescendos into an ominous buildup of synths that continue to mesmerise you, the famous Vamparela vocals are the perfect surrealist playground that Dali himself would be proud of. Contrasting the playful with the serious, this track is the perfect oxymoron with post-punk and EBM madness, of which we’d expect nothing less from the two acts coming together.  

‘Eros Anikate’ will be released on Vinyl, CD and digitally on Iptamenos Discos on 13th May 2022.

Local Suicide - Moustache w/ Skelesys

Dina Summer (@dinasummer), the Berlin-based collaboration between Kalipo (@kalipo-1) and DJ couple Local Suicide (@localsuicide), are back with ‘Revenge’, the second single taken from their upcoming debut album, ‘Rimini’. The track perfectly showcases the group’s retro disco influences and feels like a journey through time. It is a fun, groovy and melodic track with washed-out synth chords, bouncy bass lines, and staccato stabs that is perfect for any listening experience.
The project is fronted by Dina P, the Greek native who lends her vocals and thought-provoking lyricism to the act. She first started performing as a teenager on local radio stations, making waves as one of the first women DJs in Thessaloniki, before later moving to Berlin where she met her husband and DJ/Producer partner, Brax Moody, to form Local Suicide. Bavarian-born Kalipo is the third member of the group who started his music career as the producer and band member of the German electro-punk band Frittenbude. While the trio initially met at a rave at the Rock am Ring festival in 2013, they only began working on music together in 2019 and have since been refining their combined sound.

Their new 4-track ‘Revenge’ EP includes a radio edit and an extended album version with upbeat synth lines and warm summery grooves. The release also includes a darker, gritty saw edit with a driving saw bass and arpeggios and a stripped-back, pulsing dark disco edit with washed guitars and plucks. All the different interpretations of the track reflect the group’s varied influences ranging from 80’s disco, 90’s electro, new wave and downbeat.

Releasing via Audiolith (@audiolith) on the 6th of July, 2022, the ‘Revenge’ EP continues the nostalgic journey through retro disco sonics that is perfect for the vibrant summer season!

| PREMIERE | Nouveau Futur - Death Before Disco | [CRAVE TAPES]

Khoinix is a London-based label and event promoter focused on bringing to life the fangy and fierce side of music. EBM, Industrial, New Wave, Dark Techno, and Dark Disco are on the menu of its releases and parties. Expect high danceability and absolutely no fluffiness if you happen to step into the world of the project.  

For its forthcoming release, soon available in digital and cassette formats, the outlet welcomes skilled Ukrainian producer Revolt and his “Unfulfilled Promises” EP. On the remix duties, Asymetric80, Alpha Sect, Endless Nothing, Alen Skanner, Zaatar (SXDNS332), and Persona Non Grata. Six powerful originals and six outstanding interpretations make the album a must-have for the fans of dark grooves out there. 

The one we chose to review/premiere comes from the mastermind of one of the most promising artists of her generation. Hailing from Lille, France, Zaatar simply cannot get enough of delivering high-quality darkness-infused cuts through well-produced originals and collaborations published on vital imprints such as Dischi Autunno, Enlace, Soil, and Playground. 

For her take on “The Wait Is Worth It”, she might have kept some of the main elements but came up with a rawer and more shadowy vision. With a less progressive and punchier aura, the theme now has her signature EBM-clad attire. An artist to watch, ladies and gentlemen! 

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://khoinix.bandcamp.com/
