Language is a tricky thing. It’s possible to convey the most beautiful and heartfelt experiences with just a few words but meanings can be lost in translation. Language itself being just a symbol pointing to the actual thing, like fingers pointing to the moon it’s key not to mistake the finger for the actual moon. If you do you might miss all the heavenly glory the finger is pointing to. The map is not the territory.
Kiani & His Legion is back on SoHaSo with the next chapter in his sonic explorations. A mini-album that’s more than the sum of it parts, drawing you in with a story worth to be told. Using a language that doesn’t need to be explained trough words, the symbols merge with their meaning through sound.

The story commences with a female voice whispering gently to you to ‘close your eyes and fly’ and while making your journey don’t forget to ‘breath’. You get introduced to the sturdy drum patterns and eerie string pads that have become main ingredients for Kiani’s soundworld. Eindeloos takes an irresistible groove and badass walking bass winding up between endless flanging spirals.

Oval Flight starts out with the cheeky sound of an electric harp but inside it hides a seed that sprouts to enormous proportions. Beneath the beauty you can feel something sweltering, wanting to expose itself. It links back to the beginning and finally lifts you off with a grand gesture. If You Remember Me Then I Don’t Care If Everyone Else Forgets, uses haunting atmospheres that remind of 80’s science fiction or the eerie vibes found in Twin Peaks to provide safe landing ground beneath the feet after your flight.

L.O.V.E. forms an appropriate conclusion to the story, reflecting with a melancholic chord progression, soul healing choirs and the phonetic symbols ‘Lima, Oscar, Victor, Echo’ repeating till infinity.

Exclusive Human Machine 'Rosetta'

After Italian run label Engrave Ltd released their first compilation, simply named 'Volume 1', label bosses @dodi-palese and @musumeci return with the second chapter of the compilation series, which follows the concept of the first release by offering a platform for known but also up-and-coming artists of the electronic music scene. Quite established and renowned are Musumeci, Sisio, Simeone and Pavi alias Human Machine, who have created quite some buzz around their music ever since their first release '146', which was out on Connaisseur Recordings in 2016. The quartet rarely provides its audience with new material but when they do the music dives deep beyond the surface. 'Rosetta', Human Machine's contribution for 'II', is no exception. Starting off with an almost techno-ish bass line it is Musumeci, Sisio, Simeone and Pavi's preference for creating memorable melodies that not only comes through but takes over and is carried by the clap and recurring forward pushing and twisted synth-sounds that unload their energy.

Engrave Ltd's, 'Vol. 2' will be released March 2nd, 2018 on Engrave Ltd.

EXCLUSIVE: Human Machine - Rosetta [Engrave Ltd]

The tree grew tall and proud - who knew the sights it had witnessed across the years. Most days were but a breeze, there was little to observe but for the flying birds and the dreamy tropics which surrounded the tall branches and the deep green leaves. It was called 'Aftetto'... At least that was what it had been kindly named by the owner of the garden - he had planted it and watched it grow across the decades as he dreamed of life far away. The villa on the hillside was alone and quiet. The tree stood high. 

Stijn Sadee is set to release a new EP on Kitjen as he appears on the imprint for the first time. The label has been held in high acclaim featuring music by the likes of Suzanne Kraft, Fantastic Man and more. His appearance does not disappoint and comes with an extravagant Gerd Janson remix.

Exclusive Antennna & Tasma 'Astra (Mathias Schober's SB Re-Arrange)'

Busy producer Mathias Schober is back with yet another remix or rather with a remix package. This time the Berliner took on remix duties of Antenna & Tasma's track 'Astra', which was first released on the duo's debut EP for Eskimo Recordings last year. The Lossless label boss adds his trademark Schober touch to the originally euphoric Trance-Disco take by providing his remix with a tight bass line and a slapping clap that harmonize with the transcendetial vibe of the synths' array. Still Schober makes room to include the aforementioned original's euphoria – mainly evoked by a synth-pad passage – that attracts dancers at both; open air festivals or in a dark and sweaty club. The Disco-Trance-hybrid proves one thing, namely that Mathias Schober's is currently ahead of the game when it comes to sound design and arrangement as nearly everything he touches turns to a delicate electronical music affair.

Antenna & Tasma's EP 'Astra (Mathias Schober's SB Re-arrange)' will be released on Eskimo Recordings on July 26th, 2019.
