Benjamin Fröhlich The Big Sun Massimiliano Pagliara Telephone Call Remix

The piece hung in the wardrobe and was never worn - it had meant to be for a special day, evening and night - yet that moment had never come nor would it ever now. The dress was elegant and stylish, red and gold with hints of autumn which ran throughout. It had been bought upon a whim and a longing for something more. Perhaps that was a night in the Mediterranean, a day in the Bahamas or a mystical city getaway beneath the night stars. For now it simply hung, wasted in the back of a closet which was destined for the dust. 

Puma & The Dolphin is set to release a new EP on Chambre Noire, a newly launched label with an eclectic vision. The release is rounded off by a remix from intriguing leftfield producer Michal Turtle who has relaunched a career with great promise.

A human being went to explore other worlds, other civilizations, without knowing fully his own caches, nooks and crannies, wells, barricaded dark doors. The human race cannot understand the universe until it is able to understand each other, we are not looking for anyone but people. We don't need other worlds, we need a mirror. What to do with other worlds? We have had enough of one world we have, and the lack of understanding of it oppresses us. 
Paradiso are delighted to release the debut single of Telephony with Rockätansky; a world of New Beat, Dark Disco and EBM influence featuring an iconic remix from Man Power. Out digitally 26th September.

PREMIERE #1204 | Telephony - Rockätansky (Man Power Remix) [Paradiso] 2020

The slow and trancey virtuoso from Frankfurt is back to release his solo EP. Each track has its own movement - mysterious, tense, exploring, expanding. Each movement is a medicine for your flesh and soul. The EP also includes great sounds from Greece. The remix by Anatolian Weapons is, as always, something more than just an interpretation.

From the first tribal beats, this EP triggers your body to want to move, something we're sorely lacking these days. We hope you can shake off the pandemic cobwebs to these tunes, wherever you are.

Pre-order

PRÉMIÈRE: Tassilo Vanhöfen - Dream Collector (Anatolian Weapons Remix) [Electric Shapes]

There is definitely something "afro" inspired about this latest EP from Puma & The Dolphin, certainly in comparison to pretty much everything else the mysterious Bulgarian project have produced, including a great EP for Canadian imprint Chambre Noire and some stellar inclusions on every one of Dj soFa's highly respected "Elsewhere" compilations.

The story goes that while immersed in domestic life during lockdown in Sofia the music evolved to take in what was happening at home and saw the inclusion of toy instruments, drum playing, the voices of children playing and even the family parrots whistling and squawking in the background. These random ambient insertions when seen in the context of the hypnotic and percussive rhythms and timbres are oddly reminiscent of the late, great Francis Bebey who, although culturally and physically a million miles removed, was also known for recording much of his work at home and who also featured the voices of his children playing.

In fact, it is as much the music's playfulness and simplicity that give the pieces their distinctive character, at times echoing the repetition and mesmerism of Raymond Scott's "Soothing Sounds For Baby" series. Yet, childrens' music this is not. There is a mysticism and depth on one hand and a willingness to experiment on the other that echoes the pioneering experimentalist K. Leimer's early Eno-inspired tape outings (check "Supermarket" for example).

I asked Puma & The Dolphin's Nikko Names if he could share the story behind how these six tracks came together. He had this to say:

"This collection of pieces were created during a monotone period of my life which I have overlaid with colour: a time in which I surrender to the beauty of home life - watching my kids play, feeding the birds - entwining these sounds of my surroundings amongst the rhythmic layers of these pieces. Playing the drums to remind us of the next circle dance for four. There is something mystic to travel only in your head; a shamanic trip inside the body with no concepts and answers."

Three years in the making only to be held up almost another year due to COVID and now finally seeing the light of day, is this brooding monster of a record by Brussels based Strapontin, aka multi-disciplinary artist Patrick Belmont.

Clocking in at over 35-minutes the record is almost album length and spans a multitude of depths and moods with elements of techno, new wave, rock 'n' roll, house and tribal…...all glued together with a uniquely sleazy atmosphere.

Add to this a heads-down-no-nonsense darkroom beast of a remix by techno maestro Sascha Funke and the package is complete.

Strapontin provides us with some insight:
“It started with a desire to move away a bit from my 'dancefloor' side and go into more undefined fields, I wanted to work with blurry sensations that I can't understand. I like mixed feelings. Dramatex 300 is made of that ambivalent mood. The voice is saying 'I'm feeling empty' and 'I'm feeling healthy' at the same time. I like that paradox. Eunuque is a song but is also a character I will develop in a short movie (which will act as the 'music video' of the song). The Eunuque is a character full of anger yet he doesn't want to fight nor has he a target to aim at. A restrained aggressivity is boiling inside him/it that has no opportunity to escape from the body and gain release. The song is the fever he feels from these inner battles. I think Le Bain d'Huile and Anti-sceptical have the same slow and angry feeling. I'm proud of these tracks because they are a bit mysterious to me and it feels like they controlled me more than I controlled them.”
