R$N Premieres: February 2018

🌫️✨ EP — SAINTE VEDRA ✨🌫️
Un passage vers un jardin invisible, respirant quelque part entre la terre et le ciel.
Ici, tout pousse lentement.
Tout vibre en douceur.
Tout invite à revenir à soi. 🍃

Floating Garden — les premières lueurs d’un monde secret s’ouvrent sous les paupières closes 🌿🌙

Solar Petal — un rayon effleure la peau, pétale de lumière suspendu dans l’air doré 🌸☀️

Golden Air — souffle sacré, chaleur tranquille, rythme du cœur qui se synchronise au monde 🌞💨

Paradisia — là où l’âme murmure, là où tout retrouve son essence profonde 🌾✨

Atraelia — les racines plongent dans l’ombre, et quelque chose s’éveille depuis l’intérieur 🌑🔥

Art Alfie - City Neon (from the album Reveries Of, out March 3)

The car raced towards the finish line at a hurtling pace. In pursuit there was a squadron of motors parading proudly in the wake of the smoke trail which blazed up high amidst the sky. Burning rubber lingered in the air and the crowd of spectators watched on in awe at the sheer speed and scale of the display. Some had disputed the validity of the race, some had even claimed that the sport was for suckers and cheats. What did they know about speed anyway? This was it. 

Dormir are an Australian group from Melbourne, they are set to release a new EP on Pelvis Records & Burning Rose, new wave, dream like electronics with a sense of nostalgia. The EP is rounded off by two remixes by both Cop Envy and Leo James. It is the first which we bring to you today.

In Pursuit

PREMIERE: Dormir - In Pursuit (Cop Envy Remix) [Pelvis Records/ Burning Rose]

The computer screen flashed abruptly and the light went out beneath the thick dense glass. The old machine had potentially blown its fuse for the day but there was still significant hope that the track might not have been lost to the depths of the ether. Vanishing into thin air it had the potential to revitalise itself from the beyond. Reloading the machine there was little hope or life in the old box, the tin can rattled beneath the desk as his foot tapped abruptly upon the floor. 

Now here's a secretive one, an unknown artist with an unknown track. Discodromo however are familiar faces, the pair behind Cocktail d'Amore remix the mysterious alias on Me Me Me.

PREMIERE: Artist Deleted - Track Deleted (Discodromo's Belgian Remix) [Me Me Me]

The machinery was piled high inside cardboard boxes which towered high towards the ceiling. The warehouse was a place of militant storage and not somewhere expected to be of any sort of interest to the outside world. At least so he thought... Inside however, there was a playhouse, a fortress of solitude by which nobody else knew of. The palace of Xenon was his big time place of fun and after dark once all the staff had gone he was quite simply left to his own devices. He was the king of the castle. 

Ludwig A.F. Röhrscheid is set to release a new EP on Exo Recordings on the 19th of February next month. A wonderful blend of elegant electronics, blissful pads and tricky rhythms.

PREMIERE: Ludwig A.F. Röhrscheid - Xenon [Exo Recordings]

The beach was a tropical paradise upon which beautiful people graced, it was not somewhere to see but in which to be seen. Sitting upon a sunbed he looked out at the peaceful world and took a drink from his tall glass of coco loco. The cold moisture which stuck to the side of the glass felt icy and  chilled to the touch, the sand in between his toes rustled below. The sun was scorching hot and the heat was almost too much to bare, retreating into the shade he lay down and closed his eyes. 

House Is Ok are set to release a new EP celebrating five years in business, the split EP features contributions from Kornel Kovacs, Roman Flugel and more.

PREMIERE: Longhair - Coco Loco [House Is Ok]

The tropical escapade had seen them travel across the globe in search of the most beautiful beaches upon the great planet earth. What they had found was startling and beautiful: golden sands, blue skies, radiant green forests and winding waterfalls. Now as they stood watching the sun set upon the horizon they held each others hands and began to dance. This was the sweet foreign sound of sambao, a soundtrack to an experience which had led them amidst the stars and into beyond...

Duccio is set to release a new EP on the up and coming Greta Cottage Workshop imprint, a label with a consistent drive for exploration and creativity. He seems at home on the label with an intriguing club focussed release set to delight and surprise.

PREMIERE: Duccio - Sambao [Greta Cottage Workshop]

Austrian imprint @LuvShackRecords starts a new chapter in 2018 by welcoming Irish House and Techno afficionado and Misfit resident Andrew Johnston AKA @Moodtrax with his own-brand of super warm, brooding sounds to their stable. Featuring 3 originals and a remix by Berliner duo Longhair.

'Running Number' starts as a no-nonsense house track, carried by a beefy unisono bassline and a 16th note heavy drum pattern, yet it trancsends into 80s territory with the help of a deeply emotional chord progression that might just make you forget you're in a club. Longhair dig deep into that chord progression and build a melody and synth-bell infused italo-house track around it that should make this years festival crowd weep and rejoice alike.

Release Date – 25/05/2018

Perfect Illusion EP

PREMIERE - Moodtrax - Running Number (Longhair´s Luv Remix) (Luv Shack Records)

Available on 12" vinyl/digital from 11th January 2019

Celestial electronics are always at the heart of James Welsh’s music, via a number releases for labels such as Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound, Wolf Music and Hypercolour.  “Hammers” is Welsh’s second release for Futureboogie (following 2013’s “Craven” EP), and finds the UK based producer on particular fine form.

With its airy pads and shrouded ambience, “Hammers” drives a 303 bass line right through its centre, perfectly balancing the tracks emotive and darker sides.

Hodge (Livity Sound/Hemlock) comes on board with an industrial sized remix, carving out some heavyweight tribal drums and additional percussion and letting the acid do its tweakable thing.

“Denergy” meanwhile channels some electro tinged bassline moves over super funky, tight drums, a flourishing acid line, and laced with the futurism and sound aesthetics that’s keeping James Welsh at the top of his game.

Alessandro Alessandroni’s ‘Afro Discoteca’ is released on a blasting 12’’ containing 4 cosmic/disco tracks drawing influences from African music - never published before these incredibly powerful and evocative recordings were rescued from an old dusty tape found in the Maestro’s vaults.

The EP became an instant classic for diggers and worldwide tastemakers, bringing the name of Alessandroni to new audiences, far beyond the circle of film scores and library music aficionados .
March 2019: Four Flies asks to a rock band (CALIBRO 35) and three amongst the most brilliant and visionary Italian DJs and producers (Jolly Mare, L.U.C.A., pAd) to rework the original tracks, giving them new life for refined modern dancefloors.

The result is a stunning collection of electronic/cosmic/balearic reworks, which respects the spirit of Alessandroni’s compositions, projecting them into our present.

PREMIERE: Alessandro Alessandroni - Afro Darkness (L.U.C.A. quirky version)
