Best New Releases from November 2020

A Story of Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Slow Motion, New Wave, Breakbeat ...is now starting.

INCOMING : Vini Pistori Feat Abrão - Sobrevivendo O Desacordo (Iñigo Vontier Remix) #Calypso

The Calypso cult keeps spreading around the world and this time they welcome: Vini Pistori and Red Axes frequent guest Abrão. The two Brasilians join forces to deliver an epic EP called “Louco & Sobrevivendo”.

“Luoco Chama” slowly starts with a simple beat until Abrao's vocals kick in to get you in the mood while a mental arp keeps the track driving foward. “Sobrevivendo o Desacordo” brings a strong modulating bass and again the epic Abrao vocals intervine for a dreamy interlude and a complete release of energy. The tracks are simple to leave space for the voice but powerfull enough to have a life on it's own.

Label bosses come to rework each of the tracks. Iñigo takes “Sobrevivendo o Desacordo” and transforms it into a percussion frenzy with robotic vocals. While Thomass takes “Luoco Chama” and makes it an instant classic with a "White Horse style" bassline and acid touches that add new psychedelia to the track.

Latin american forces in full swing from start to finish.

INCOMING : Vini Pistori Feat Abrão - Sobrevivendo O Desacordo (Iñigo Vontier Remix) #Calypso

Tenebrous frenchman Jon Beige (formerly known as Beige) strikes back with his 3rd release, and once again creates his own genres that we’re going to define here as ghettowave or leftfield-core. Melting high-tech soundscapes, hypnotic synths and broken drums, his heavily synthetic universe spreads into 5 new tracks. Here’s a few words about them, including comments from the producer himself.

Distorsion Naturelle de l’Auto Radio is a straight-in-the-face kind of entrance. This arid and distorted urban jam puts you straight in the heart of Jon Beige’s dystopian Gotham paradise « I often imagine it as a laser tag game that would turn wrong ».  

On Palo Santo, Jon Beige is going dancehall. Using the genre’s symptomatic drum pattern, he navigates between club-friendly and meditative moods in a tensed yet balanced journey. « That’s the track I think is the most finished of the EP, but all the tracks match together in a not-fully-calculated way ».Hydrocution is a funk ballad, like a mysterious forest walk surrounded by disturbing but harmless creatures that are taking you to a bright glade, where you will finally stumble into the master of the place. « I often struggle to produce something simple with just a few elements – this track is the first time I succeeded. »

Isolat is a smooth and psychedelic sci-fi trip, unexpected and always moving forward « I imagined a little robot lost in a city suburb, wondering what he was doing there. Mood is kinda Spike Jonze’s ‘’Da Funk’’ but with a robot ».

The EP closes in a very noir scene, heavy rain, melancholia and cold blooded crimes : Déjeuner Sous l’Herbe won’t let you rest in peace. « This track, my oldest on this EP, was made in 2014. I’m still really into the solo in the end ».  

The artwork is designed and imagined by Belgrade-based artist and producer Stevie Whisper, aka the hands behind Yes and Mystic Stylez.
The record will be released as a ziplock package that includes a USB stick with the WAV files and exclusive club remixes + a limited edition poster + some cool stickers.

Releasing Jon Beige since his earliest work, Global Warming Records is run by french producer and talent seeker Malcolm, who imagines and shapes each project hand in hand with his artists. Friendly Surveillance will be the label’s 12th release.

Jon Beige - Distorsion Naturelle de l'Auto Radio

A Story of Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Slow Motion, New Wave, Breakbeat ...is now starting.

INCOMING :  Lowe Aka User - Palms Boulevard (Romain FX's 'City of Angels' Rework ft. Liberté) #WhereWereWe

Here comes the remix package for Lowe Aka User’s Plastik Tanzen EP which came out at the beginning of this summer on Vilnius’ freshly baked label Where Were We? Sadly, stems and original project of “Nepalese Honey” track has burned down together with Lowe Aka User’s hard drive, so remixes are coming only for “Palms Boulevard” and “Tanz Botanik” tracks.

The first three versions of “Palms Boulevard” were made from already well-known and established names in Italo field: Scotsman, always on point Donald Dust, Italian, Amsterdam-based and super-prolific Daniel Monaco and back to France from Hong Kong, proper edits master Romain FX. 

Guys took rather different approaches for making their versions and all of them put their own spin on the OG. We hope that each and everyone of you will fall in love with one version or the other or maybe with all three of them, just as we did. The last version of “Tanz Botanik” comes from a local hero, Lithuanian talent and also known Italo lover Jonas aka Black Feeling. Although this version is the most housey from the whole package, we think that it compliments the entire pack very nicely. 

Euphoric italo house at it’s best!

release date : 2020-08-10

Premiere: Punke - Maxilla (Evil Dust Remix) [SDR01]

Artists: BRÄLLE, ArchivOne, T Y
Title: Hands of the Master EP
Label: Märked
Category number: MRKD023
Format: digital
Release: 19-08-2020
Artwork: Alex Hofmann
Mastering: JoeFarr

Tracklist:
1. BRÄLLE - Hands Of The Master
2. BRÄLLE - Spačva Forever
3. BRÄLLE - Blaspheme
4. BRÄLLE - Spačva Forever (ArchivOne Remix)
5. BRÄLLE - Blaspheme (T Y Remix)

BRÄLLE’s debut on the label with Hands Of The Master EP, starring no stranger to the label ArchivOne and surprisingly rough talent T Y.
Hands Of The Master EP is a combination of cosmic club diving to acid-esque trippin and full-blown warehouse pounding. What’s interesting in the title track is the swords percussion, hinting to a medieval trip lead by an atmosphere breathing chivalrous adventures. Spačva Forever sits on a more ominous vibe, pushing an hypnotic 3-note synth forward to its absolute limits. At the same time melancholic and uplifting - though mesmerizingly deep - in Blaspheme backed by deep kicks definitely make for another club-ready produce. ArchivOne kept his interpretation of Spačva Forever as pure and minimalist as we like to hear from
him - mind boggling hypnotizing and heaps of percussion-driven drive. T Y is our secret little surprise of the EP where he adds an absolute speaker destroyers for whatever dance floor it’s played on.

PRÉMIÈRE: Mule Driver - You're Fucked [Confused Machines]

Artist: Niko Marks
Title: No Fairy Tale Love
Label:  U2XProductions
Format: Digital
Release date: OUT NOW
Purchase: https://nikomarks.bandcamp.com/album/no-fairy

This release was recorded during the covid19 crisis as a showing of true endurance to complete an idea no matter what. Some of the vocal tracks were recorded virtually which felt bit strange at first but worked out in the end. The Ep starts with the title track, “No Fairy” which is an upbeat, piano driven, instrumental. Next up is a remix of the track that follows called, “Carry Me” which is mostly driven by piano stabs and synths. Track 3 is a mellow tempo, vocal house jam which feature the vocal talents of, Trina Williams. The Ep moves along through tracks 4 & 5 with two mixes that feature vocals by Eva Soul.

PREMIERE #1129 | Niko Marks - No Fairy Tale Love (Cheerios Mix) [U2XProductions] 2020

The way he moved was fast and furious, gliding across the room with wild movements and an electric pace. He landed each step expertly in time yet at any given moment looked as if he might recklessly spin beyond control and crash. Some called him a psycho dancer, others believed he was once a ballerina who had lost his way. The music rattled and echoed in the small chamber as he leapt between the walls in time with the persuasive percussion and dazzling drums. This was his moment, it was beautiful in its relentless chaos. 

Iron Curtis is set to release a mini album split across two parts via way of Hudd Trax. The music featured is club built and dancefloor ready, however we chose perhaps one of the most pensive and reflective pieces on the new release to feature. It's elegant and tasteful, subtle and harmonic.

Total Art Of Living Part 2

PREMIERE: Iron Curtis - Psycho Dancer [Hudd Trax]

Following De Lichting's latest 2 various artists releases, the collective puts the spotlight on Human Space Machine. With his name appearing on all the label's compilations to date - next to being a regular on Indigo Aera and On Board Music - the 'Cycle' EP marks his first full solo EP since 2018. Rising to the occasion in style, we witness Human Space Machine we would say it was well worth the wait. Over the course of three tracks he skillfully drifts between moody breakbeats, mesmerizing percussion riffs and drifting house. Tip!
