Belly Dance Services ft. Random Atlas

Scratch Massive is French duo Maud Geffray and Sebastien Chenut. For their landmark 2011 album, they were joined by vocal talents Jimmy Somerville, Daniel Agust, Koudlam and Chloe. A new wave and electro masterclass took the band to a whole new level after earlier albums ‘Enemy & Lovers’ and ‘Time’ laid solid foundations. Over the last decade, the pair have remained at the top of their game with four further LPs, including most recently ‘Live in Paris’ from earlier in 2021. They are proven masters of electro-tinged, slow-motion house who have also written original soundtracks. Their knack for crafting moody, cinematic sounds makes them perennial underground favourites. This new remix album adds plenty of fresh new perspectives to their still-classic original.

Energy meets energy. Emotion arises - the kind that clings to life circumstances and situations, practically as a saving grace in the big, wide world of nonsense. Deeper, driving forces point the way from sensual adaptation to environmental influences - as does the soon-to-be-released split EP from Chemnitz and Berlin-based synth-punk band BAUMARKT and Mainz-based NOAH VERT. Will be available as a limited physical release on cassette tape, and also digitally, from RÖ13 RECORDS

PREMIERE | Noah Vert - Trapped [RÖ13] 2021

Showing up for the second time on our platform, Balearic Ensemble proudly presents, for its forthcoming release, Aditya Mehta aka Abstract Incognito, a multidisciplinary artist from India whose productions, inspired by his love for sunshine and warm coastal breezes, are more than a perfect fit for the Barcelona-based label. “My Reflection In You” is a Balearic Infused Deep House track written in 2018 in Adi’s studio in Cape Town and comes accompanied by a superb remix made with love by Max Manetti.

In the words of Mikey Sibson, who wrote the PR text for Balearic Ensemble, “Max Manetti’s ‘Pacific Ballroom’ mix with its synth toms cascading ear to ear, shoulder to shoulder with opiate bells, chimes and somnolent synths is a clever re-dub on a circuitous route to the place at the end of the shoreline, a lush and expansive reinterpretation of Abstract Incognito’s subtle Balearic sensations. 100% ear candy from Max's Pacific Ballroom!”

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://balearicensemble.bandcamp.com/

Mexican geek ALF CHAMPION returns to Playground Records to deliver his first EP on the label: ‘J.H Nasmyth’. Named after the Scottish inventor.

For this new launch Rafa joins forces with a bunch of friends from the Mexican underground scene armed with powerful analog gear and lots of talent to create sophisticated and intelligent music. Organic breakbeat, playful jams, jazzy synth feelings and plenty of diverse sonic landscapes are some of the treasures you will find in this magic box.

The album takes the final shape with remixes from Paradise Palms Records' head-honcho the Scottish Jacuzzi General and the Andalusian producer, dear friend and brilliant member of Correspondant crew Javi Redondo.

PREMIERE: ALF CHAMPION & CÁRPATOS - Consurge Sicut [Playground]

The city was silent and sleeping, only restless beings roamed the streets during the twilight hours. Night time hid a multitude of sins, secrets remained so during darkness and activities of the devilish kind were never frowned upon. But in the cold light of day, the traces of debauchery remained and the fears began to seep in.

In September Atlanta-based producer and musician Stranded released his new album ‘Midnight Sun’, coinciding with the relaunch of his label Double Phantom Records. On one of the featured singles ‘Fallen’, which comes complete with a special video created by Richard Vergez, he moves away from the darker side of his productions and into dreamier realms. Blending elements of dream pop and trip hop, he channels some of his formative inspirations into the breakbeat-driven groove, from 90s Primal Scream to Spacemen 3, Spritualized and Andrew Weatherall.

The accompanying video is made up of found footage and collages that compliments the dreamy sounds, conjuring up a likeness to the imagery of Adam Curtis.

ZEN REMIXED

Premiere : Love Ape - Linndrum Hustle (Mushrooms Project Remix) [Rugged Society]

18
dedicated to my family

these clocks are bleeding summer slow
a paper bird just learned to go
I fold my fears in denim seams
and walk between my waking dreams

she sang through the wires, my bloodline hums
she said this is my share, but now I'm running out of stairs

I'd trade the moon to write their name
every single echo that I claim
iluminare el cielo como el, abuela
every string tied to su huella

I hold the roots beneath my feet
every step a vow I swear to keep
my voice will rise in fields of wheat
their blood runs deep inside of me

the sun sets different through a screen
plant my hopes in coffee rings
and make it big, ill be eighteen

a stage, a street, a stranger's praise
wont match those kitchen days
september sky, dont turn away
ill sing your name when skies turn gray
make you proud in every way
build the life you said I'll make

pa viejo
