Our next release is a family affair involving two artists who previously released on Samo Records. Tassilo Vanhöfen, who was featured on our “Sphere” compilation, delivers a hypnotic EP with three of his signature low-tempo/trance-y tracks, perfectly matching the vibe of these strange times. 
“Laterna Magica'' gets reworked by Itako, whose “Standards” EP came out on Samo last year; the result is a sped-up version that will haunt you for days.

Fading Light

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.

We are proud to introduce the team of notables who have come together especially to bring this wonderful creature to life: Sascha Funke, Curses, Iñigo Vontier, Shubostar, Theus Mago, Local Suicide & Franz Matthews, Thomas Von Party & Fabio Me Llaman Soltero, Niv Ast, MR TC, Thomass Jackson & MKDSL, Middle Sky Boom, Stevie R & Parisinos, Teniente Castillo, Kate Stein feat. Vongold, Martin Noise & A-Tweed…

Some things only happen once in a lifetime, sometimes twice....Who knows....

'Too Much to Match' is a unique compilation, perhaps unrepeatable, made up of single songs from different producers from diverse geographical and aesthetic backgrounds. 7 original tracks that make up a musical archipelago, a set of islands united by the same thing that separates them. Gems of an irreducible singularity, powerful and very danceable whose character goes beyond any traditional label or defined territory. Get ready to explore unknown sonic landscapes from all corners of the world: Petr Stancl (Czech Republic), BĘÃTFÓØT (Tel Aviv), Orchid (Russia // Moscow), Iñigo Vontier (Mexico // Guadalajara), Oblako Maranta (A-Tweed + Andrey from Radial Gaze // Italy + Russia), Zombies In Miami, Joseeph (Mexico) and Persona RS & Bojarchük (Chile + Lithuania).

Too much to be true? Yes...Too Much To Match!

Too Much To Match

Bitterness (Original Mix)

Persona RS & Bojarchük - Bitterness (Original Mix)

Tonight the moon took up the entire sky, illuminating the dark streets of the city below. From their window they watched the night as it flowed from dusk to dawn, imagining themselves floating beyond the universe; living beyond the stars. How wonderful it would be to drift up above the cosmos and away from the world, they thought to themselves, in their own continuous orbit with the sun, the moon and the stars. 

The beginning of this year marked Toulouse-based label Ritmo Fatale's third year of existence. The imprint, run by Kendall and Paul Guglielmi, is celebrating the occasion with the release of a sprawling two-part compilation which showcases many of the sounds that make up the past, present and future of Ritmo's world. Making pitstops in places like Indonesia, Spain, Morocco and Czech Republic, over two releases Epifania connects the dots between Italo, synth wave, progressive trance and 80s-influenced sonics, from artists including Cyda, Blutch, Kiara Scuro on part one, and Zaatar زَعْتَر , Cosmic G and Laurence Matte on its successor.

Part Of The Road

Knight Fever is the second release on @bungalo-disco . The four songs are a mixture between childhood dreams driving K.i.t.t. and a time travel from the 80s to the 20s and back – each track in its very own way.
»Taniacid« is a Neo Italo track with some spices of acid that will make you feel like driving in „Super Pursuit Mode“.
»Trust doesn’t rust« is more or likely an Italo Disco song, hard to say when it has been created. Not even Italo Brutalo himself knows it. 
»Knightmares« – the name says it all. The psychedelic track contains just two elements. Less is more. An absolutely secret weapon on the dancefloor. 
»Not a drop to drink« has originally been written on a very hot summer day in the mountains of Ibiza, what you might not expect due to its dark atmosphere with elements of old school electro music.
