RODION "MEDUSA"
File under: dark funk - electro space - analog grooves

After quite a while, Rodion returns with a new solo single. On LSD!
Rodion dismisses the romantic spaceman suit for a tighter and much darker number on his roman/german label Roccodisco, the house of the Alien Alien.

Just forget the refined and the sweet: this is basically creepy afterhours music, a trip too far gone through obscure and scary galaxies outside the Solar system.
The sound is 100% analog, druggy, mechanical uptempo funk: rumbling basslines, sheer and hallucinogenic synths on top of a seriously raw beat. This time Rodion’s voyage is a no-way-back one.

On the remix duty, we are very proud to feature the Argentinian duo DJS Pareja (Còmeme). Strong, rude, this version takes you to an unpredictable cruising on Planet Medusa. Call it nasty house, or electro macho, this is definitely the sound of a snake-haired nightmare…

Then, to complete the EP, we have Solenoid, one of the wildest Rodion numbers ever: 
a rapsody in gold where out-of-this-world melodies and geometric old-skool grooves melt in a bench chemistry orgy. qJust make sure not to miss it.

In this EP, Keltik opens a sonic space where everything flows unhurriedly. Soft rhythms, deep layers, and a constant feeling of floating. Like a reef open to the sky and mystery. Each track invites you to slow down, to look inward, to let yourself be carried away by what you cant see, but can feel. Where the water speaks, the noise is silent. A subtle, enveloping release, designed for those who know how to listen beyond the pulse.

Labyrinth

Tuff City Kids - Labyrinth (Morgan Geist Remix)

The machine would take them to new heights, not in reality but in their imaginations. The drug would lead their minds astray and would guide them through a simulated world of merriment and ecstacy. The simulation would last for five hours, the effects would wear off soon after, however they would never want it to stop by the time they had reached the peak. The change in each of their mental states would surpass anything that they had ever known or dreamt possible. Simulation awaited. 

Flug 8 values house music, family and culture. His latest EP for Kerosene sees him experiment with the limits of the genre and comes not long off the back of his recent album "Trans Atlantik".

Seven years into its celebrated journey, Life and Death assembles its third and most adventurous compilation to date - Displaced Soundtracks.

For the first instalment in a new series, DJ Tennis has given free rein to some of his most trusted contemporaries, enabling many of today’s most respected dance music producers to display their hidden talents as composers. Gathering music from a long-aborted film, the collection stands as another bastion of Life and Death’s perpetual evolution.

Duncan Gray embraces dissonance, Black Merlin, Appleblim and Artefakt go interstellar and Fango channels post-punk squat music. Hades Rocket showcases the expertly-sequenced synth work that has graced Simian Mobile Disco’s illustrious career, while Redshape revisits all the right sides of 80’s Wave and Library music. Danny Daze and synth-savant KINK embrace non-standard tempi with great success, while Axel Boman delivers sitar-laced gospelhouse without a bass drum. Elsewhere, your favourite producer’s favourite producer, Stimming, team’s up with pianist Lambert and the pair learn to fly.

Inspired and challenging, Life and Death ventures into their eighth year confidently, constantly evolving without compromise.

Redshape - Theme

It’s been two years since Stefan Z last released on this label, but the three tracks he serves up prove the wait has been more than worth it.

The Berlin based Canadian is the boss of the Rhombus label and is a top electronic production talent. He makes his sounds stand out with slick vocals or moving melodic elements, most likely because of his formally trained piano and trumpet playing skills. He’s had support from the likes of Sasha, Solomun and Adriatique, and his label parties in Vancouver were key in developing the city’s underground scene.

The super title track goes first and is a freaky number with spacecraft circling the groove, building tension in the melodic riffs and futurism in the drums. It’s a dramatic track with heavy, lumpy kicks and one to jolt the floor into action.

‘Borni’ is another long and involving tune, this time with more mystery and suspense in the way it builds. The drums get you marching as synths and ghoulish motifs pan about to creepy effect. It’s a real set building track that keeps you on edge.

Lastly, ‘Cipe’ is the toughest of the lot, with stiff hits and withering cosmic chords speaking of an intergalactic war. Underpinned by warm bass, it’s a widescreen cinematic affair with real beauty in the pads that eventually take over the show.

All three tracks here are mini epics that really take you on a trip.

The creation of Rizzoknor‘s track ERIN is worth a little story.
As a sound engineer, Daniel Rizzo meets loads of gifted musicians year after year. On this particular night he met the Berlin-based singer Erin Lang. Still amazed by the performance of this exceptional artist, he dives back in his memories listening to the recordings of Erin‘s concert. That‘s where the guitar lick on Erin‘s Track „Carried away“ caught his attention. Building upon this hypnotic guitar melody, he will create a new composition.
That‘s how Rizzoknor‘s track Erin, a kind of remix in some way, was created. This process will be repeated in the „ERIN REMIXED„ series, from one edit to the other. For Vol.2 we invited three artists to rework ORGAN MUGs edit from Vol.1: GREGORYTHME from Lausanne, PSYCHO WEAZEL from Neuchâtel and LOU FAIT DU SON from Zurich. The music that emerged from the process is suprisingly well balanced between House, Techno, Kraut and Trip Hop vibes.

The Compilation Erin Remixed Vol.2 will be released May 1st 2020 on the Zurich based label RAVE U R. Here go the Chinese whispers and we are very excited to see where this journey will take us. Three talented musicians are already working on remixes of GREGORYTHMEs edit. Vol. 3 coming soon!
