Primrose - Set My Heart On Fire (OUT NOW)

Norgeviskas

Exclusive: Ramu - 2049 Rain

The third ride on Magic Carpet comes from Bristol-based Ramu – maybe naming himself after a river in New Guinea, maybe after a fizzy Japanese lemonade or a small village in Bangladesh. As tempting and multifarious these options are Ramu's Magic Carpet debut musically takes the same line: it's a bit of Breakbeat, a whiff of Electro and Jungle, but it is not a mishmash or arbitrariness. It's simply music in its pure- and rawness with three different approaches to it merged in this three tracker. Three however seems to be the magic number for this release – three tracks and the third Magic Carpet ride. The B2, 2049 Rain, is – in defiance of the speculations regarding Ramu's artist name at the beginning – hinting at the eponymous track from the Blade Runner movie. Unsurprisingly 2049 Rain starts as a rather minimalistically held approach with a dark and almost dystopian yet futuristic industrial tone that in the course of time softens. The latter is reached by Ramu adding spacey deep chords and a breakbeat-sequence which is partly enriched with little scratches and HipHop-esque vocals before modulated 8-bit sounds and the beforementioned chords cohere and take this one home – to the clubs where it belongs.

Ramu's EP Ride 03 will be released later this summer on Magic Carpet.

EXCLUSIVE: Ramu - 2049 Rain [Magic Carpet]

Freshly founded label Emotional Voyage Record’s third release (EVR003) comes from founding father UrbnMowlgli who’s EP “Feelings Space and Time” represents the Label sound and philosophy. It features 3 timeless emotional dance tracks with a remix of “All These Things That I Feel” by his partner in crime Moodrich. 

The EP holds nostalgic house cuts, broken beats, acid lines and lush organic synth layers with melodic basslines each telling a story for itself inviting you to dive into your own personal emotional voyage deep within you. 

Fascinated with the expansion of the human soul and mind within a life, endless possibilities and a humble nod to creation UrbnMowgli expresses his soul unconstrained and honest in a time of profound change.

All These Things That I Feel (Moodrich Remix)

A smokey hookah lounge lies nestled amongst Saturn’s outer rings - for those who know where to look. Its sole occupant for a thousand years, the being known as @planar-traits. 

Lick the cosmic toad and strap yourself in for a fourth ride on the Magic Carpet. Propulsive breaks and mystical atmospheres send us crashing through the waterfall, deep into the velvet jungle beyond.

Planar Traits • Portal Vision EP [RIDE04]

Flings finished just as they'd begun, relationships came and went; none of them stuck around for too long. Maybe she was unlucky in love, or she just hadn't found that person who was able to set her heart on fire the way she needed. At times, she felt like just giving up, the person she was looking for might not be out there after all. Some called her a pessimist but she preferred to call herself a realist... 

Morse co-founder and Origins Sound regular Primrose is launching a brand new label, Primrose County. Kicking off proceedings himself, with what also marks his debut EP, Primrose shares Set My Heart On Fire, a blissful four-tracker packed with colourful melodies. The A-Side showcases the more downtempo side of his production, with cinematic electronica and bright synth-pop influences, while on the flip the EP makes a bee-line for the dance floor with vibrant melodies propped up by warm sub bass and spirited rhythms.

Set My Heart On Fire

PREMIERE: Primrose - Set My Heart On Fire [Primrose County]

Debut EP here from London-based Primrose on his own brand new label. He creates spellbinding, colourful electronic music that blends bouncy club focussed rhythms with other-worldly soundscapes. 'Foreverever' is the flip side to the title track 'Set My Heart on Fire' and moves into deeper 4/4 territory centering around a rapid-fire arp line and jolty syncopated claps, anchored down by a propulsive kick and a warm sub.

Preorder 'Maintain The Golden Ratio': https://Cybotron.lnk.to/MaintainTheGoldenRatio

Cybotron has re-emerged in our contemporary cybercultural age when artifactual futures begin a transition into a new era of "Meta". 
 
By combining their knowledge of philosophy, science fiction, and mechanical engineering, at a time when electronic instrument companies were only just beginning to distribute their products to the masses, two prosumer audio technicians named Juan Atkins and Rik Davis were able to re-engineer Cybotron  &ndash;  a combination of the words "Cyborg" and "Cyclotron" (an atomic particle accelerator) &ndash; to be used as a home studio performance music that would change the course of independently produced and distributed electronic music.
 
Dissolving the boundary between singer, songwriter, and producer, Juan Atkins named Cybotron's future forward funkadelic sound "techno" in reference to Alvin Toffler's concept of unlikely "techno rebels" against technocracy. Techno is music that sounds like technology, and its purpose was to help society survive our collision with a universally felt "future shock" by inserting an audio virus into the cultural matrix. 
 
Techno's blueprint spread across the Detroit-Berlin Axis between Metroplex and Tresor. As human society began its transition from a post-industrial to an information-based market economy, Cybotron enabled a thorough system override of the human senses towards a tangible man-machine hybridity and showed the world how to channel their emotions and imaginations into new sound technologies and create new 'sonic' spatialities where listeners can transport themselves out of the physical world into the future. The cover of their debut album Enter (1983) transmitted a fragmented view of a body in motion being digitized mid-stride, dissolving physical and virtual reality into sonic fiction.
 
Today, the man-machine hybridity of Cybotron is still the truest form of techno, coevolving in conversation with the technological music they created and inspired. The latest data disk marks a new chapter that reflects a techgnostic musical expression of the knowledge acquired during their decades-long hiatus. Unlike the dance music industrial replications of the Model 500 formula, acknowledging the content marketing expectations that segments music into specific, sellable genres, this techno music is self-aware.
Cybotron processes dance music tropes spawned from its very own blueprint with a meta-tactical precision out of sync with our current rave new world. 

Cybotron's return demonstrates a studied engagement with what techno was and should be with a peerless update of Juan Atkins' initial inventive idea of do-it-yourself electrically reengineered music xeroxed onto both sides of the 12" &ndash; uploaded directly into the alleys of your mind.

Landside is the collaboration between Italian producers Hunter/Game and the Icelandic band Kúra.
The sound draws as much from the deep vibe and  melancholy ambience of Kúraʼs  reflective, dubby moods, as the more insistent groove of Hunter/Game's dancefloor roots.

Landside - Chains EP

Chains EP, is a meltin pot of dub vibes, breaking leads, and melancholic
vocals.
An obscure path through secret prophecies, sewing new worlds, combining ash and bones.
A born spell, takes you into uncharted lands, a journey up to a mirage of a desert lake.
Axel Boman remix is fresh breath into e melancholic landscape, as a shaman hypnotizes you , and takes possession of your most magical vibration.
Beacon Remix is a velvety story into a melody that cradles you in a soft dream without break away from a wild energy.
