MAELSTROM - DISCORD 
[ZONE RECORDS]
Released February 24, 2014
1) Tank Diving
2) Discord
3) Scanner

After a huge year that saw The Hacker & Gesaffelstein’s ZONE Records release acclaimed EPs from artists like Arnaud Rebotini, Remote and Djedjotronic, the label kicks off 2014 with a new three track EP from one of France’s most exciting producers, Maelstrom.

Hailing from an ancient French harbour city, Maelstrom grew up in Techno filled dark and grimy warehouses. Now he spends his days shuttered in darkness, working on his own music and his nights at clubs, raves and festivals passing that music on, inspiring another generation.

With releases to his credit on labels such as Boys Noize, Sound Pellegrino and Dirtybird, not to mention three acclaimed releases on ZONE over the past 18 months Joan-Mael’s remixes and original productions represent a perfect synthesis of past and future, Detroit, France and beyond.

Now returning to ZONE Maelstrom picks up where he left off with the stark and dissonant 'Discord' EP. Three tracks that range from pulsing apocalyptic Acid to pipe banging Techno and Cybertronian Electro-Funk - it’s cold, remorseless yet brutally funky and sure to cement his position as one of Europe’s leading underground producers.

Maelstrom - Tank Diving

It's been high time for GUI BORATTO to endow us with another tasty slice of that enticing pop- infused techno of his: since the last Boratto- helmed offering TOO LATE (KOMPAKT 285) had conquered 2013's floors and beaches, we've seen the Brazilian mastermind occupying himself mainly with bringing his own label D.O.C. into position. Now, the Kompakt stalwart returns with TAKE CONTROL featuring Brazilian duo COME AND HELL, his first original material in 2014 and a perfect tune to ring in the summer.

Fitted with a glitzy array of top-tier remixes, TAKE CONTROL presents itself as a strong addition to GUI BORATTO's back catalogue, revelling in the kind of hook-driven pop techno that we love so much. Again dropping silky vocals on top of a well-oiled club machinery, the new track enlists the help of fellow Brazilians COME AND HELL and is an obvious contender for the pole position in this year's dj crates. A wealth of perfectly cast remixes rounds off the release, featuring intriguing takes on the sophisticated source material.
The first out the door are DJs PAREJA, the two Argentinian daredevils responsible for wrecked floors worldwide, thanks to bold releases on gatekeeper imprints such as Cómeme or Huntleys + Palmers. Their version pairs the original's streamlined vocal with the brutish thump of their other work, sending crowds into a frenzy with the flick of a button. In his revamp, US tracksmith DANNY DAZE teases out a similar amount of propulsion, but finds a different level of cray cray with a break as massive as it is insane. Upcoming Amsterdam hotties WEVAL finalize the package with an irresistibly melodic bassline and epic gauge. Perfect run!

OUT NOW! Gui Boratto feat. Come and Hell - Take Control (Come and Hell Mix)

A quick needle-drop through Para One's "Club" LP, out on June 16th, 2014 on Because Music / Marble.

For about fifteen years, Para One (Jean-Baptiste de Laubier) has been leaving his mark on French electronica. Since his hip-hop beginnings and his part in the TTC adventure (and the Institubes record label), Para One has not worried too much about classifications and genres, wide gaps having been his trademark. He is a solo artist on “Epiphanie” (a milestone of 2.0 french touch) or “Passion” (his last album, more pop mid-tempo and introspective), a cinema composer (“Naissance des pieuvres” by Céline Sciamma), a producer of seemingly distant projects for Birdy Nam Nam or Micky Green, a record company boss (the fantastic Marble Music), a director in his spare time, and even an actor, but, more than ever, he is a DJ capable of switching from hip-hop to house or techno, from UK garage to old school vibes and future turbines.

Among a thousand projects, Para One is back on the dance floor with “Club”, a new album which was not meant to be one, but believe it or not: it’s serious stuff! “The ‘Passion’ album is the background for this, as I decided to reshape it for my live act, explains Para One. I’ve rebuilt the tracks entirely, making live versions for festivals and bigger clubs. Then I found myself with a totally different album. It’s not a live album. The tracks have been modified and reinterpreted. Subtlety was not really an option, it had to hit kind of hard. The tracks had to sound real in a club situation and people are now meant to dance to them! It’s also a ‘treasure hunt’ kind of record with many references. It sounds like my DJ sets, when I mix many things and styles, old and new, because that’s how a club should sound. It’s a place where memories belong.”

The pop, melancholic and highly danceable “Passion”, was meant to be listened to at home or on quiet dance floors, but “Club” only retains the melodies and vocal hooks. It smells like sweat, joy and abandoned bodies. Packed with English acid house piano, huge beats, elegiac vocals, references to UK Garage, filtered french touch and house, “Club” dives into the heart of dance music. It’s a 3.0 rave emblem, a daring record to make people dance without selling out.

Hot Since 82 - Play The Room
Release date: July 13th 2015

Saved Records are delighted to welcome underground champion Hot Since 82 into the family. Long-time admirers of the Leeds based producer’s consistently uncompromising and visceral aesthetic, the imprint unleashes the Hot Since 82 sound along with a remix from the ever-adventurous Matthias Meyer.

“Play The Room” is a hypnotic and heady workout that draws potency from its simplicity. Built around jacking drum machines and a throbbing, relentless wall of bass, the track grows into a powerfully addictive beast through a series of subtle steps. Slight gearshifts in tempo and weight of the bottom end facilitate a much more absorbing sound, pulling us into dubby, warehouse atmospheres. There is a warm a smoggy overtone that will suit summer dancefloors, but combined with a deft musicality that piques the ear.

Hamburg’s Matthias Meyer highlights his singular attitude once again with his wonderfully expansive remix. Rich in ambient, cinematic textures but driven by deep bass and agile breaks; the remix finds a rare beauty in its contradictions and complexities. Melodic, emotive and thoughtful yet hardened, purposeful and melancholic, this remix has the ability to lead you into the unknown forest.

Para One feat. Jaw - When The Night (Canblaster Birthday Mix)

Last EP from LOUISAHHH!!! 

She loves playing and making records more than anything else in the whole world. She also enjoys singing.

Raised in an atmosphere bursting with passion for music, LOUISAHHH!!! (born Louisa Pillot) started singing and playing instruments at an early age before discovering a passion for DJing. Starting at age 17, sneaking into New York City clubs with fake IDs, LOUISAHHH!!! (a name chosen 'as a war cry or a shriek of delight') has since honed a style that is hard but deep, tough but tender.

After moving to Los Angeles in 2006, LOUISAHHH!!! became half of house-centric production duo NYCPARTYINFO, releasing records with Throne of Blood, Nurvous and Young Adults. However, it wasn't until friend Danny Daze requested some vocals for his group Senor Stereo that LOUISAHHH!!!'s talents as a singer began to shine, gaining more notoriety as modern classic 'Your Everything' climbed the deep house charts.

Amidst this whirlwind of excitement, a fateful meeting of French techno wonderkind, Brodinski spiraled into a fast friendship and eventual collaboration for Brodinski's young label, Bromance Records. With 'Let the Beat Control Your Body' and 'Nobody Rules the Streets' becoming peak-time anthems, and explosive vocal collaborations in the realms of both deep house and new techno, LOUISAHHH!!! was getting ready to release her own productions into the world.

2013 brings about LOUISAHHH!!!'s first serious solo EP on Bromance records. Supported by dynamic, emotional, ferocious DJ sets rife with technical finesse, LOUISAHHH!!! maintains that 'she is thrilled to be alive', and that her music is an active expression of this.

LOUISAHHH!!! is thrilled to be alive and loves you very much.
