Petar Dundov drops a killer two track EP and sum up another great EP to the Sudbeat legacy.

Croatian superstar Dundov has been a staple of underground dance music for a long time. Already successful locally, it was the turn of the century that saw him become internationally famous with a string of releases for Belgian label Music Man, and Sven Vath's Cocoon imprint. All his work is defined by his unique take  that makes him hard to pigeonhole, but amazing to hear. 

Opening with the rhythmic ‘Lunar Eclipse’ deep pads and playful keys create a warm atmosphere in which your mind can run wild. Equally pleasurable on the dance floor as home listening, the analogue vibes are comforting and familiar. ‘Realm of St Stephen’ tells a similar tale with a more dancefloor orientated focus. Bubbling bass and icy pads get things off to a good start before keys and stutter vocals give direction and substance. Resolutely understated and unashamedly cool, the break serves to reset for an equally joyful second section.

Global Underground’s album series ‘Nubreed’ is reaching its tenth release milestone with ‘Nubreed #10: Oliver Schories’.

Released on Friday 27th October 2017 as a double CD ‘Nubreed #10: Oliver Schories’ will see the German DJ and producer join alumni of the benchmark album series including Steve Lawler, Sander Kleinenberg, Lee Burridge, Satoshi Tomiie, and, most recently, Habischman.

“I think the mixes really captures my way of DJing and track selection. It’s in essence 3 parts: classics that almost nobody dares to play anymore, my favourite tracks at the moment and some of my secret weapons like the Alexander Kowalski remix for David Durango, which is just something else.” OLIVER SCHORIES

Nubreed 10 - Oliver Schories (PREVIEW)

David Aurel - No Daylight

Rabbit holes. They open up everywhere. Every new topic you read, every new discipline you study, every new dancefloor you attend. We've all explored them. How deep you want to go is down to you.

Gardenstate, for instance, take things very deep. Fresh from featuring on Odd Ones Vol. 1 on Yotto's Odd One Out Imprint with their track Floración, here the transatlantic duo make their debut on Joris Voorn's Spectrum and dig deeper into their craft with two incredibly explorative pieces of fully immersive techno.

Like all the best journeys we start with the 'Rabbit Hole'. At first it seems like an innocuous acid line. Warm, direct, simple. But the more you listen, and the more you dance, the more it opens up. Before you know it, you're swimming in arpeggios amid crisp neon spirals, your mood lifting with every new element.

'Arpology' is a moment of honest euphoria. The duo describe it as an 'arp orgy' as three layers of the iconic synth are rolled out and entwined in a majestic narrative fashion. A homage to the music of their roots and personal foundations, it's a timeless piece that joins the dots between trance and techno with class.

Come and explore the rabbit hole. How deep do you want to go?

The masterful Budakid is back on Exploited with two beautiful tracks.
A spellbinding, slow-burning slice of melodic-tinged house music, ‘Ringo Bingo’ has shades of Todd Terje in its spacious arrangement, rolling groove and gorgeous riffage. An electro arpeggio percolates over the throbbing bass tones; heavily reverbed percussive hits create atmosphere; and nagging piano chords build a tense melodic backbone. The cute lead melody is at once euphoric and melancholy, and a stunning synth solo in the mid-section adds some dazzling freestyle energy that really opens the track.

‘’Ringo Bingo’ is for me a travel between fusion, club and a glimpse of electronic jazz” says the man behind the track. “I n the break I asked an old friend of mine — Rolf van de Sande, with whom I used to play in a band — to come up with a jazzy and extraordinary solo. He totally nailed it. I wrote the arrangement in the end around the solo, and let the groove take over the focus at the climax to get more of a dance feel to it. This is one of the tracks that was a pain in the ass to finish and mix because it was full of harmonies and melodies. But I thought "If Snarky Puppy can do it, I can try to do it..."

‘Aku Aku’ goes deeper still, with lush strings decking out a light arrangement where shuffling percussion and dreamy, crystalline chime melodies flit across the surface. The chimes are seamlessly bolstered by live bass guitar, doubling the melody up a treat, with splashes of percussive texture here and there bringing a little extra spice. A few piano chords later on are all that are needed to complete this sublime track.

"Aku Aku" is more of a dubby groove based track where I tried to use only a few elements. A hallucinogenic melody that's very repetitive, but easy on the ear due to its polyrhythm and harmony. Once a friend listened to it and said "Kevin, this sounds like an old 00's game". I totally agreed, so one of my favourite game characters was an inspiration for the name.”
