Optimo Music’s connection with South America continues to mushroom with this 4 track EP from Hermetics.

Santiago Niño a.k.a HERMETICS is an accomplished eclectic & conceptual electronic musician originally from Bogota, Colombia but now based in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He has a deep discography of releases across a range of genres. He plans to keep experimenting and exploring new sounds and unique percussive atmospheres. 

We asked Santiago to tell us a bit about The High Strangeness, and he goes deep......

The High Strangeness EP tells a story of the diversity of images, textures and atmospheres that I want to explore with this project, and it is also a tribute to many concepts and topics that interest me.

"High Strangeness" transmits a psychedelic drama, an astral journey through unknown dimensions, a leap into the cosmic, into the extrasensory universe and the dreamlike nature of reality. When I listen to this track I can't help but imagine Terence Mckenna telling his amazing experiences with Psilocybin and DMT. In part, this track is a tribute to the psychedelic counter-culture and its enigmas, Its high strangeness.

"Cobra Negra" is a state that connects me with the archetype of the warrior and his confrontation with his own shadow. There is an internal battle against the forces of nature and its' violent and mysterious fauna. This track takes place in an imaginary jungle where the warrior faces all the beasts, snakes and insects of his psyche.
 
The sound of "Coherence" places me in a pre-dynastic Egypt of high magic. It immerses me in its esoteric mysteries and its advanced spiritual technology. It evokes in me images of strange rites and ceremonies that were in direct communion with the stars and other planes of existence. Egyptian wisdom and enigmas never cease to amaze me, and this track is a tribute to my fascination with this civilisation, which seems to come from other worlds.

"Bon" is a track, that like "Coherence', is a tribute to a tradition, to an ancient shamanic culture, in this case, a tribute to the pre-Buddhist Tibetan 'Bon' tradition. The darkness, the hypnotism and the magnetism of its' mantras are what I wanted to capture in this track, an atmosphere that makes one travel to the strangest abysses of the magical and esoteric practices of an old pagan east.

Premiere: Monkey Safari - On (Original Mix)

Off the back of a whirlwind 2015 including the launch of their new label ‘Hommage’, Monkey Safari gear up to take the dance scene by storm with the release of their new EP ‘On’. The self-entitled release showcases the German act’s mixture of hip-hop and new wave influences embedded in 9-10 minute climactic and euphoric footprints that have so often epitomized the acts sound throughout their short career. Remixes by legendary techno producer ‘Paco Osuna’ and ‘Chloé’ have done no harm in aiding the producers growing stature on the global stage whilst helping their break into new scenes and demographics not yet familiar with their uplifting and melodic sound.

The EP containing two original tracks ‘On’ and ‘Matters’ utters influences taken from the act at a young and formative age. Sven and Lars unique connection was established as teens in their hometown of ‘Halle’ where the duo’s paradox of tastes complimented one another’s and has come to define the nature of their productions. Agreeing to start a youth fueled club night that exhibited the duo’s love for indie/alternative and electronica in two separate rooms, the venture became the catalyst for the pair’s amalgamation in song-writing and thus, Monkey Safari was born. A track that mirrors these tastes exceptionally is the single ‘On’, a perfect blend of steady paced house with alternate influenced vocals creating a brooding and haunting piece of music. The duos cleverly crafted layering of the track gives the vocals enough room to breathe whilst keeping the dance-fueled tempo with airy and spacious percussion. The second track ‘Matters’ focuses more on techno and trance-like elements with delayed and static analogue sounds coating the duo’s stereotypical atmospheric and surging psalm. The track is much more in-tune with the acts dance influences with no inclusion of any vocals, dedicating all attention to the core ingredients of percussion, bass and keys.

The duo’s rapid growth in recognition is best shown through Paco Osuna’s monstrous remix of ‘On’ with a typical elongated build, euphoric drop and crunching percussion that will be certain to be a stand out track on dance floors around the globe. Underground French artist Chloé’s remix of ‘Matters’ is reminiscent of the duo’s new wave motives with a perfect collage of echoed guitar samples and a grooved bass lick epitomizing the French house sound. Both remixes are equally as talented and enjoyable as the originals and will no doubt help flourish the acts credibility and respect going in to 2016.

Senso Sounds drop a major release from techno heavyweight Dubfire and label boss Oliver Huntemann. Reuniting the partnership that has seen a string of seminal releases over the years in the form of their 'Elements' series, 'Humano' is the 2nd part of a continuation of this series - more weapons of grade dance-floor material from the high profile duo. Later on this year their partnership will be summarized in their 'Restrospec- tivo' album.
Former Deep Dish man Dubfire’s uncanny knowledge of how to create epic dance- floor moments is in full effect, combined with Huntemann’s precision tool production techniques on the original version of the title track. The result is a super tough, tight and incalculably driving slice of techno goodness that will ignite floors worldwide. The rest of the EP manages to maintain the pressure - with a set of sick remixes from Victor Ruiz, Hatzler and Shaded.
Ruiz, the Brazilian techno pioneer adds another level of fire to the original, tweaking and refining the track into a damager that pushes everything to 11 and hits home with every play. Hatzler, the Hamburg based German DJ/producer chooses a different direction - emphasizing more of the space in the original. Rinsing the tension to the next level, look out for the epic middle section break down. The whole package is primed to destroy clubs far and wide - techno at its most effective. Shaded’s Summer Skin remix also delivers a tightly wound interpretation, with a bubbling bass line and nervous, excited groove providing the fuel for an extended dancefloor excursion.

Tracklist:
A1. Humano
A2. Humano (Victor Ruiz Remix)
B1. Humano (Hatzler Remix)
B2. Humano (Shaded’s Summer Skin Remix)

Dubfire & Oliver Huntemann - Humano (Victor Ruiz Remix)

What are you waiting for? Go on, jump in. The water is warm and a liquid paradise awaits. The poolside was a place of elegant sophistication, ladies watched hazily from loungers as gentlemen swam beaneath the lush blue ripples. Over by the bar the music could be heard pouring from small monitors, it echoed blissfully through the open air and travelled beyond the walls of the palace. All is well for what lies within but over the wall, a perilous plague had began to unfold. They remained happily ignorant inside the palace whilst the world fell to turmoil. 

Red Axes have developed a notoriety unlike few others. In recent years they have powered through the ranks releasing music on the likes of Permanent Vacation, Crosstown Rebels and more. They have amassed quite the reputation. Now they are joined by friends from far and wide on a remix EP for Thomas Von Party's Multi Culti label. He collaborates with them and creates an alternate version of 'Waiting For A Surprise'.
