Great balance in the mix, fits well for any situation.

time is ticking but with a soundtrack like this it's all g

Driving melodies, hypnotizing rhythms and emotional synth programming. It's this signature sound that has earned San Francisco based DJ/Producer Sasheen global attention.

With 'Higher Self' he makes his Manual Music debut after having done several releases on the Manual Music co-owned label Blue Magenta. A deep yet uplifting tribal driven tension builder that's being complemented by fantastic remixes by Francesco Pico (Global Underground / Magnitude Recordings) and Paul Arcane (UV / Mango Alley).

As an added bonus the track 'LFO Conversations' is added as a more than worthy 'b-side'. It might just become a secret weapon for some of you..

Time was of the essence, more so now than ever. The waterfall roared as the leaves blew in the rising wind. The storm was only going to get worse from here on in and they had to escape. They were running out of time, what had been a pleasant adventure had become a perilous affair and if they weren't careful this trip may well be their last. Time was everything now.

Techno But Not Techno Sampler

PREMIERE - Black Light Smoke - Dark & Stormy Night (Nein Records)

Mexican Dj & producer Mijo and Berlin duo Local Suicide collide in a wonderfully fresh and inventive collaboration on their latest EP ‘Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch’. Local Suicide, comprised of couple Brax Moody (Munich) and Vamparela (Thessaloniki), weaves in their signature blend of Post-Disco, New Wave, Jacking Acid, and Slow Dark Techno while Mijo injects his own stylings of the Latin Techno that he helped to define and create. 
The result is a spacious, energetic, and stunning product from start to finish.  As the latest installment from San Francisco-based label Roam Recordings, which specializes in Dark Disco, Post Techno, EBM, and Acid, ‘Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch’ is an impressive sonic feat that will leave you dancing all night.  
The EP opens with the original ‘Edo Kai Tora’, an infectious uptempo track with hypnotic, oscillating synths and an undeniable groove. Greek Vamparela of Local Suicide brings her voice to the track. The result is a sultry, spoken vocal that repeats the resounding phrase ‘Edo Kai Tora’, which in Greek translates into ‘Here And Now’. The words themselves couldn’t be more fitting to the overall feel of the project, which has an extremely 'in the moment' sensibility to it. In ‘Ganz Falsch’, Mijo and Local Suicide revitalize the electronic boogie, keeping things light and fun with a warbling bass hook juxtaposed with a playful, spitting rhythmic vocal. 
Supporting the EP, Berlin-based DJ/Producer Sascha Funke along with Moscow Duo Simple Symmetry lend their talents to create standout reinterpretations of both title tracks. Where Sascha Funke fleshes out the darker, cosmic undertones of ‘Edo Kai Tora’, Simple Symmetry mix in an extra kick of pop and funk sensibilities to the project by layering rhythmic, post-punk garage style guitars into ‘Ganz Falsch’, bringing to mind the underground indie rock scene of Southern California. The project comes to a delightful close with two additional digital bonus tracks: a slightly elongated, ethereal interpretation of ‘Edo Kai Tora’ (re-envisioned by Sascha Funke) and an energetic dance version of ‘Ganz Falsch’. 
As a whole, the EP is an electric, collaborative accomplishment of unique sonic character, versatile and exemplifying the best of each producers creative talents. ‘Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch’ is set for release on vinyl and digital formats this July 20th under Roam Recordings

Tuff City Kids feat.Joe Goddard -Tell Me-Kink Remix

Seven years down the line and Tamed Musiq is proud to present its first-ever album release: "Upstream Colour“ by Iron Curtis. This long overdue follow-up to "Soft Wide Waist Band“ represents a milestone for the Berlin-based producer and easily ranks as his most accomplished work to date. Similar to an impressionist painter, Iron Curtis portrays a well-known subject (House Music) in a dream-like setting by employing a palette of ethereal sounds, subdued melodies and bass-heavy beats. “Upstream Colour” is a beautiful musical experience that never strays too far from the dancefloor yet requires multiple listens in order to unlock all of its mysteries.

Johannes Paluka has enjoyed a prolific career since he has started using the Iron Curtis moniker back in 2009. His releases on Mirau, Hudd Traxx, Retreat or Uncanny Valley have been highly praised and have certainly contributed to the resurgence of deep house in the last decade. His music as part of prolific duos Achterbahn d'Amour with Jürgen Albert, Moon with Johannes Albert and Smpl with Leaves has also been widely celebrated. But as Johannes was going through a difficult period in his life at the beginning of 2016, the events in turn sparked a flurry of inspiration which resulted in the core of "Upstream Colour“. The producer has then spent the last two years working on different projects while continuously fine-tuning his second album and making it his most personal creation up to now.

"Upstream Colour“ is a stunning journey in twelve parts where ambient pieces effortlessly slide into club-ready tracks, thanks to a very distinct range of sounds. There's an unmistakable dream-like quality to the music as subtle tones, elusive melodies and background noises give the impression of looking at familiar elements through a veil. "Boorang“, "Werc Werc Werc“ or “Holding Back” can definitely light up the dancefloor but they also evoke a certain distance from it and are keen to drift into an otherworldly realm, somewhat reminiscent of the cinema of David Lynch.

But even at it's most peculiar, there's an undeniable warmth that radiates from "Upstream Colour" which is best illustrated in its calmer moments such as "Ease Pt. 1 and 2“, "Bethanien“ or the closer "Mt. Gordon“ where ripples of white noise seem to wash away the 'classic' house sounds of yesterday. And then there are the cathartic pieces such as the title track or the gorgeous “Lucent”: beginning in the now familiar fog-like signature, these tracks brilliantly evolve to let in beams of emotion tingled with melancholy. “Lucent” in particular is prone to illuminate even the darkest dancefloor with its majestic strings and heartwarming synths.

“Upstream Colour” is a mesmerizing album that follows the listener long after it has reached its end, akin to a dream that lingers on well beyond the moment of waking up. It is also a testimony to Iron Curtis' boundless talent as a musician whose abilities extend far beyond the genre of House Music.
