BAM & MR.DERO ''THIS & THAT''

Mile’s debut album Apple Juice And Lemon Trees is an extension of his personality and experiences, combining his african roots, social dedication, personal frustration, punctured humor and pure rap. Mile manages to close the gap between consciousness and roughness breaking with the cliche of the common rapper.

MILE ''APPLE JUICE & LEMON TREES'' ALBUM

‘Hard work and lots of hustle. These are the qualities that have brought young veteran DJ Mario Bee from humble beginnings in the bedroom to the stage as a DJ, and most recently, the official digital release of his debut single, ‘Tomb’ on progressive label Tiefparterre Records, out of Graz, Austria.

Music was never far from Mario Bee as a kid, surrounded by his mother's singing of 80s new wave classics or the radio blasting soulful house  throughout much of his childhood during the 90s. Acquiring his first pair of decks at 17, he began regularly practicing scratching and beat juggling routines. Soon after discovering grime and following artists like Dizzee Rascal, Wiley, and Mike Skinner’s now defunct label ‘The Beats.’ He felt compelled to immerse himself in anything and everything grime or bass driven coming from the UK, finding himself frequenting physical and online record shops, developing a deep passion for mixing records, and vinyl culture.

In college he took a late night slot on the radio playing the same dubstep and grime 12”s he’d been collecting, lugging both gear and vinyl from his dorm room to the studio each week. His efforts on the radio gained him respect and made for a smooth transition into the local club scene. Before he knew it, he had his first residency gig at a club he wasn't even old enough to enter, playing Hip-Hop, R&B, dancehall reggae and Baltimore Club.

Throwing events with local DJ crews and experimenting with a laundry list of sub-genres, Mario carved out a small niche for himself where his personal style as a DJ began to blossom and locals took notice.  His tendency to challenge the audience's perception with dark sounds and unique track selections creates a particularly moody vibe, something he likes to call ‘club politics’. Each set is an attempt to strip away the veneer of conventional mixes, exposing the heart and soul of the music itself.

Versatility and style spontaneity eventually landed him gigs sharing the stage with some of his personal heroes and DJ icons including Diplo, Drop the Lime and Harvard Bass, as well as house legend Charles Feelgood. In the last two years Mario has opened for independent Hip-Hop acts Schoolboy Q, Juiceboxxx, and Mr. Muthafuckin Exquire, dubstep pioneers Caspa and Rusko, and an impressive ‘local openers’ set in his hometown for Grammy award winner Skrillex.

DJ Mario Bee has now taken the next natural step into music production. ‘Tomb’ is the culmination of everything he has learned so far on his journey from bedroom to club stage. The tune is dark and made strictly for the dance floor, two elements that reflect Mario Bee’s love for UK bass music. Its haunting, echo-chamber sound is a mixture of early dubstep and grime at a slower rolling 120 BPM, instead of the genre's typical rapid 140 BPM cadence. His debut on Tiefparterre marks this artist’s promising first efforts toward a progressive direction in electronic music.’ The whole release comes complete with remixers from APLOT, SIMON/OFF, 222OCEANS.

MARIO BEE - TOMB EP

Markus Graf, aka SEISMO, has been a declared piano lover since his early youth. So it didn’t come as a surprise that his production of electronic music turned out to be strongly influenced by his favourite instrument.

Tiefparterre Records proudly presents SEISMO’s debut EP “YOU?”- a juicy and eclectic release full of emotions and impressions. With one hand always on the piano, SEISMO managed to create a sophisticated and melancholic yet joyful and optimistic atmosphere.

The EP starts off with the track “I know you”, a collaboration with the band MADMAN’S COUNTY. SEISMO combines the melancholic elements of the MADMAN’S COUNTY’s beautiful song with his individual electronic sound, creating an upbeat and refreshing spirit. “I Know You” is followed by “Rosa”, a three minute emotional piano solo.

For “Fly”, the third track, SEISMO teamed up with his long-term companion Birgit Lubi and MADMAN’S COUNTY lead singer Lukas Wassermann, which resulted in a melodic and vigorous, lively love song. The fourth track “L’ Espoir” is another piano solo, embracing the audience with its gentle and graceful melody.

“YOU?” ends with “Black Noise”, again featuring Birgit Lubi, whose unique voice together with the instrumental created an epic, almost mystic song that entirely lives up to its name.

Tiefparterre Records is looking forward to showing you much more of this talented artist in the near future.

SEISMO - YOU ?

Klumzy Tung is proud to announce the full release of his eagerly anticipated debut album, 'Happy Accidents', in April 2014 via 'Tiefparterre Records'.

To promote its release, Klumzy Tung will also embark on a ‘Happy Accidents Tour’ with Mr.Dero and the band which will take them all over Europe, rolling through the UK between May 4th and May 10th 2014.

The album ‘Happy Accidents’, which features exclusive beat ‘n’ bass heavy remixes from Beardyman, JFB, Mr.Dero, Dizzy Womack and Urbs, is the culmination of many years of musical exploration from the talented singer/songwriter, rapper and freestyler Klumzy Tung. Produced by his studio and stage partner Mr.Dero, it amalgamates his Hip-Hop and Drum n Bass background with acoustic guitar song-writing, incorporating a mix of clever lyrical wordplay and memorable melodies with inimitable social commentary, tung-in-cheek humour and an optimistic outlook.

Klumzy Tung has taken a unique position within the world of music. For the last 2 years he has been releasing official videos for each song on the album, building a worldwide audience and gaining international recognition. He has had BBC Radio 1 airplay, European radio rotation and almost half a million YouTube views for the video of lead single ‘Counting Sheep’, which was nominated for best music video by ‘The Smalls Film Festival’ and ‘Rushes Soho Film Festival’.

Klumzy Tung fell into music while ghost-writing rhymes for his brother ‘Risky’, who was a UK Garage MC on pirate radio. This rapidly became an obsessive lyrical scribbling addiction that has snowballed into many musical happy accidents, including a chance meeting with beat-box champ and loop wizard Beardyman. This led to the forming of freestyle duo ‘The GobFathers’ who performed fully improvised shows using audience suggestions to create ‘‘on the spot’’ songs with a dash of random humour. Off the back of this Klumzy Tung met Mr.Dero at a show in Graz, Austria which was the start of what has turned out to be a long and exciting musical partnership.

The ‘Happy Accidents’ album follows on from previous successful creations which all began with Klumzy’s breakthrough song ‘Little England’ which also featured Beardyman. They teamed up again as a pair of free-styling, beat-boxing traffic wardens for E4's hidden camera series 'Web Heroes'. His stock rose once more when the single ‘Headscrews’ with Mr.Dero was used as the soundtrack to worldwide TV series ‘‘Skins’’. He’s also performed numerous times at the ‘‘Udderbelly Festival’’ and was recently named ‘Artist of the Month’ on Austrian national radio station FM4.

The challenge of attempting to record faultless one-take studio performances, led guitarist Andreas Furstner to declare the immortal words “Bob Ross always said we don’t make mistakes… We make Happy Accidents” and so the album title concept was born.

KLUMZY TUNG - HAPPY ACCIDENTS ALBUM

We at Tiefparterre are pleased to present to you the new release from our man Chris Chronsky. After his successful Ep ‚The Saga Continues’, released on Tiefparterre in August 2013, he is now presenting his long awaited Lp ‚Concrete Compositions’

The debut LP ‚Concrete Compositions’ portrays Chronsky’s musical output from the past year and follows on seamlessly to his proceding EP. MPC driven beats, analoguesk samples and live recorded drums, trombone, bass and keys are the main ingredients of this record. The style range is broad and goes from nu jazz, soul and breakbeat to hip hop, but always with the certain lovely sound colour of an oldschool prodcution approach.

‚,I like making music and cooking food. That keeps my soul in balance.’’ This is a quote from Chronsky himself and keeping your soul in balance, is exactly what this 14 tracker is all about. It’s about to make moves on the dancefloor on a saturday night as well as on the couch on a sunday afternoon chillout. Get groovy, you will love this record!

CHRIS CHRONSKY - CONCRETE COMPOSITIONS (PREVIEW)

Sonny Blakes ‘Perception’ EP is out on Tiefparterre Records this December with two healthy remixes in tow from Altroy and Simon/Off.

Since its foundation back in 2002 the Austrian-based imprint has been picking up quite a head of steam and with it’s second to last EP from A-Wax picking up love from heavy hitting names like Efdemin, Sei A, Waifs & Strays and Mr G, you can see why. This December the label returns with a blistering and diverse eight-track offering from exciting newcomer Sonny Blake.

Throughout this EP the listener is seamlessly meandered through various palettes of sound that perfectly exemplifies Sonny’s versatile tastes. ‘Vegas’ kicks things of as a powerful opener with sublime ethereal atmospherics wrapped around gentle harmonies, soft arpeggiated melodies and warm beats to deliver a particularly melodic yet punchy start to the single. The rest of proceedings are an engaging & varied exploration in the fresh producers dynamic & spongy production, from the smooth piano lines and trip-hop beats of ‘Camaro’ or the big room vibe of ‘Lens Flares’ right through to the warped bass of ‘Torque’ and the broken beats and stifled stabs of ‘Dresscode’ - the whole EP keeps you on your toes from start to finish.

First up for remix duty is Simon/Off who has seen releases on labels such as disko404, Immerse, Haunted Audio and Phuture Shock, for his re-imagining of ‘Torque’ he utilises choppy bass and broken beats to punch out a whacked out rhythm for the undeniably hypnotic cut. Last and certainly not least is US producer and Minimalsoul Recordings head honcho Altroy who dishes up a Detroi- influenced groove-laden jam over frisky percussion and deep resonating tones to bring the kinetic EP to a smooth and vibrant close.

Sonny Blake ‘Perception’ EP is released on Tiefparterre Records on 13th December 2014.

SONNY BLAKE - PERCEPTION EP

Redscape is the collaborative efforts of MOTSA and FUNCTIONIST, a pair who are making big shapes in their hometown and further afield of late, while MOTSA’s singles on Jhruza, Bird Kids and Schoenbrunner Perlen have put him on the map, FUNCTIONIST has found fame in spinning Soul, House, Hip-Hop and Funk on his infamous FM4 radio show, both artists are regarded to be driving forces in the Austrian music scene.

The release kicks off with title track ‘Funky Feeling’, a bumpy house number, driven by straight 4/4 drums, sweeping synth lines and a low-pitched vocal licks uttering the title. The duo introduce a gritty saw-wave bass hook to up the energy of the record, while elongated bass drones and subtle nuances in the melodic elements add character and intrigue to the feel of the cut.

Then to close the single Redscape offer up ‘It’s Over’, taking things deeper this time with ethereal pads and soulful vocal licks, while 90’s hip-hop infused Moog licks, retro brass stabs and jazzy percussion add a unique charm to things. Creating a classy, disco-inflected house track.

Redscape’s ‘Funky Feeling’ EP is out on Tiefparterre Records 13th November 2013.
