Deep Tech

DjTennis - Ah! Isobel (Original Mix)

Released: 12” 14th July | Digital 28th July 2014 

IN BRIEF 
Renowned for their sublime, lyrical take on dance music, DC / Berlin based duo Benoit & Sergio return to their spiritual home of Visionquest with some freshly crafted groove ridden thrills. More set in the smoke and heat of the club than their vocalised bittersweet visions, the ‘Your Darkness’ EP showcases the duo at their dancefloor focused playful best whilst incorporating infectious vocal samples, searing melodies and pulsing rhythms. Opener ‘Splash’ is at once murky and tropical as the bassline grinds underneath light footed percussion whilst title track ‘Your Darkness’ is a deep and moody groover with signature rich synth work. Closing track ‘Beat Macho’ is a wayward beast with a darker edge and satisfyingly complex chugging framework that makes for a heady trip into the depths of the night.

 BACKGROUND
o+ Leaving an indelible mark on a selection of pioneering labels since 2009 - Spectral Sound, DFA, Hot Creations, Culprit and of course Visionquest have all fallen prey to Benoit & Sergio’s unique brand of sensuous electronics. The duo first appeared on Visionquest for the imprints’ inaugural release in 2011 ‘Where The Freaks Have No Name’ featuring the ubiquitous ‘Walk And Talk’ - a quintessential slice of romantic techno. Then in late 2012 the ‘New Ships EP’ further demonstrated the duo’s ability to mix visceral energy with the emotional.   

o+o Gaining the title of iTunes breakthrough electronic artists of the year in 2011 and featuring in RA’s best live act poll in 2011 and 2012, they also had the tracks ‘Everybody’, ‘Principles’, ‘Let Me Count The Ways’, and ‘Walk and Talk’ variously charted in top 20 year-end polls for Resident Advisor, Mixmag and DJ Mag. The duo have since been enlisted to remix heavyweights such as Matthew Dear, Metronomy, Hot Natured and covered Daft Punk.

o+o+ This year the duo is working on completing their long anticipated debut album co-produced with DARKSIDE aka Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington, and set to be released on the magically diverse Other People imprint. A single will be dropped as a teaser in the not too distant future.

Bringing Soul Clap Records ever further into the future is the multi-disciplined Jay Haze. With well over a decade of focus in Photography, Film, Music and Video Jay's interest in Peace Activism has drawn him off the dance floor and deep into disaster zones, jungles and slums of the worlds most notorious regions. His widely known social based projects spread a positive tone of togetherness inspired by and routed in the dance music scene for more info check out his blog at www.jayhaze.org.

Jay has been a friend and mentor to us for more than a few years now. Not only is he a huge funk head, whose music we love, but we’ve spent many special moments looking out over the ocean from his beautiful apartment on the coast in Lima, Peru. One of the first unreleased songs he sent us back in 2012, even before we launched the label, was “Take A Dip”, a quintessential Jay Haze groove that added some serious guitar riffs and a solo that sent it to the stratosphere. We played it outside in the morning at Hideout Festival in Croatia that year and the reaction was immense, and was then followed by a year of tweets and emails asking what the song was.

One song does not an EP make and we’re very picky about our EPs here on The Mothership. It wasn’t until Jay send us two magical tracks that featured by an intriguing, exotic string instrument called the Mulatar built and played by his musical collaborator Jordi Lockruf that we had the full package. “Peru Berlin Connection” and “Mulatar House” are the first songs to ever be released that feature the Mulatar and we’re honored to have this special and very personal release on our label.

More in Jay Haze's words: 
“This EP is super special for me not only because i was able to introduce a new instrument to the world via vinyl (how cool is that?) but it was made with friends, and with the intention to put more music into electronic dance music. The song “Take A Dip" was recorded with Signor Andreoni on the beach in Sardinia, magical moment- simplistic but to a feeling! the other songs were made with Jordy Lockruf, a man who not only possesses an immense natural talent for string instruments, but also makes them by hand himself! We have taken this record as an opportunity to showcase the Mulatar, this beautiful all wood instrument, which consists of a bass, harp and percussions on the back and sides. The sound of this instrument is soo distinct because of the way it slides. It is a slide instrument, with wax contact to wood. At this point there have been 16 of them made by hand, and the sound of this beautiful instrument continues to mesmerize every time we play her.”

Excited to have good friend Ashley Wild providing us with the next instalment to Dilate Records.

Kiki (Bpitch, Crosstown Rebels) & Geddes (Tsuba) finish off this outstanding release. 

Ashley Wild has produced a masterpiece with stong rhythmic pads, deep lying bass notes and tranquil but haunting synth line.

The remix from Kiki has been executed perfectly, he uses all elements of his knowledge to create a purely mesmerising piece of music. The quality of sound and clever writing structure is something to be admired offering a gem for peak time sets.

The final piece to this well rounded EP comes from Geddes. His remix has a definitive old house style sound, but also a driving deep vibe with a lot of energy from start to finish.

Premiere: Eleonora - Taken (Man Power Remix) [Nothing Is Real]

First things first. Yes, you’re right, there’s LL1218 missing but please be assured we’ve just changed the schedule a bit for this one. 

LL1219 is introducing a new act, hailing from Cape Town, South Africa. ATELIER is a duo formed of Jaś Miszewski & Alexander Inggs. Their ‚Something To Fill An Hour‘ EP is a prelude to a full-length player which will be released early next year. On the EP you will find the beautifully crafted and organic sounding original which is backed up by two remixes coming from the super in-demand and always tasteful PEREL and the label heads Thomas and Mathias as SBTH.

‚Something To Fill An Hour‘ is a deep yet energetic track with all the right ingredients that make the Atelier sound - analog synths, drum machines, guitars, effect pedals and last but not least Jaś' voice. It’s evolving from start until finish and will sooth you with it’s wide and deep sounds and a beautiful reverb - which was recorded in a church.

The remixes will please the dance floors, while Perel went for her trademark sound with 80s infected melodies and a broken drum machine based rhythm, SBTH built a strong foundation based on a slightly broken, low end driven beat with loads of tension to give the vocal the right appearance as the main element. All this makes an excellent introduction to Atelier and we’re happy to welcome two new faces to Lossless.

Oceans of Time - Bawrut Remix 
“Bawrut lives in Madrid and is one of the most exciting producers out there at the moment. We often communicate online about the climate crisis and how to be a touring DJ in that context - and I really enjoy our conversations as he has a lot of perspective on the situation and what we can do to be kinder to our planet. As an artist Bawrut has made some crazy dancefloor tracks these past few years, that has really brought him into the spotlight, with his own unique rave sound being released on labels like Life and Death, Correspondant and Ransom Note. I asked him to do a remix of Oceans of Time because I thought he could take the track to a new place and he definitely did with his monster bass synths and let-loose arrangement!”
