A few years ago, the brazilian artist is really fell in love with analogic synths and the whole 80's vibe !
Now, he pays homage to it with an incredible musical energy focused on Italo & Disco.
Here is his first EP for the owl and it's an honour to have him on board.

'AE86' is a cosmic italo trip through the milky way, flirting with the synthwave sounds. Just close your eyes and go on a trip with everyone around you on the dancefloor...

'Nuovo Tempo' is about the musical resurrection of the artist. A powerful track to dance and always telling a beautiful story...

The producer of East London, From Beyond, gives to 'Nuovo Tempo' a nice housy & acid face.

Tracklist: 

1 - AE86 (Original Mix)

INCOMING : Biesmans & Nico Morano - Falkor (Original) #Ontourage

Release Date : 2022-02-04

Ontourage Music stands for connecting like-minded people on the dancefloor but apparently we're good at uniting talent as well. After the success of the Merci Paris EP on Sincopat, Nico Morano and Biesmans teamed up in the studio in Berlin. They delivered a rock solid EP including 2 originals and 2 remixes by Dodi Palese and David Kochs.

Joris and Nico, both born in the 80's, share a common love for everything from that decade and especially that 'big energy' music. The two original tracks 'Atreyu' & 'Falkor' are clearly inspired by the sounds of the 80's with some iconic synthesizers as the foundation of the songs. Pulsating basslines, classic juno pads, fast melodic arpeggios, … resulting in pure peak time bangers.

German wizard David Kochs was asked to put his magic on Atreyu and gave it a completely different twist, using the vocal as a main hook floating on dreamy pads and on an ultra phat bassline!

Our Italian friend Dodi Palese, better known as the remix king, remixed Falkor into a highly effective dance floor killer!

As a first major statement since her 2018 debut album Hermetica, Perel, the newest addition to the Kompakt family, delivers her startling new single “Real”. Perel gets face to face with the world as it is now: “Has the world always been that gloomy?Or is it just a cataract? Maybe I’ll just wake up tomorrow from a deep sleep and then all of this isn’t real.". Tellingly, Perel deals with this the best way she knows how, essaying a lush, melancholy paean, wrenched from the soul, and lit up by her unabashed love of synth pop and electronic music.

Perel broke cover when she was signed up to James Murphy’s legendary DFA label, with whom she released a string of lovely singles and her debut album, Hermetica, a gorgeous, deeply dreamy collection of songs, some featuring her Nico-esque smoky singing voice. Balancing her singular productions with a career as an in-demand DJ, Perel’s come a long way from her early years, growing up in Saxony as a youth in love with the sounds of new wave and gothic pop.

Recent EPs “Karlsson” (Uncanny Valley, 2019) and “Star” (Running Back, 2021) consolidate an impression of an artist with a singular, unswayable vision. But “Real” is something else. There are hints here of Moroder-esque disco, in the pinprick arpeggio that percolates through the song, and of the Berlin School of electronic music, in the lush synths. You can still hear touches of post-punk and Neue Deutsche Welle, too, in “Real”’s moody countenance, and Perel’s vocals, but it’s all delivered with the knowing insouciance that’s fundamental to any great pop moment.

Riven with desire and despair, “Real” is a hymnal sigh for a world unmade. “I sometimes feel so disconnected from the world,” Perel sighs. “To me, it’s hard to ignore the problems of the world in order to experience any happiness or joy. It eats you from the inside.” But Perel fights on: “Despite, there’s so much to be grateful about.”

Having established itself with EPs from Duke Slammer and DMX Krew, Dublin's Modern Magic welcomes Bari's Armonics for the label's third release.  A trained pianist and resident DJ/curator of the We Talk event series in his home city, Armonics draws influence from electronic music across the past 40 years: Chicago & acid house, italo- & electro-disco, new wave, synth-pop and vaporwave. 

His 'Italowave' style is a fusion of these retro-futuristic and cosmic styles, forged through Armonic's production processes which include cassette recordings, vintage synths & modern Korg/Roland gear.  The 'Look Alive' EP is the producer's second release, following a debut on Slow Motion in late 2016.

Accompanying the EP's three original tracks is an anthemic, piano-led remix of 'Red Eye' by International Feel act Black Spuma, aka Lauer (Tuff City KIds/Arto Mwambe) and Fabrizio Mammarella (Telespazio).

Nearly two years on from their last Casino Edits outing and marking six years of the label itself, Casino Times return for Casino Edits 5.

The A is a beefed-up take on a punchy European disco staple. An infectious groove is coupled with fluttering arpeggios and a rigorous bassline that builds tension throughout to deliver some peak-time power.

Digi now on Bandcamp: https://casinoedits.bandcamp.com/

Meanwhile on the flip, B1 brings synthesised and organic voices together with eerie melodies and a low slung beat, creating a rock-infused haze. B2 finishes the release off on a house tip, with a relentless percussive loop that bends between mind-melting FX and an uncompromising square wave bass.
