The Deeper You Go

Exciting new Brooklyn artist CISUMMI steps up to Kindisch with a fresh remix of a Chambord original from October 2020. 

CISUMMI is an Afro house DJ and producer based in Brooklyn. His multicultural childhood saw him grow up between France, Spain and his native Benin. That has led to a vibrant mix of influences that celebrate his African roots, a love of Latin culture and global travel. Here he remixes the Paris-based Chambord duo. Their original 'Wonderland' embodied their melodious sound which is influenced by world music but with electronic and hypnotic atmospheres. 

CISUMMI flips ‘Wonderland’ into a gloriously warm and fulsome house groove. The drums are deep, the melodies harmonic and the percussion sprinkled over the top brings a real lightness to the groove as the intimate vocals add tenderness. Rich marimba and piano sounds bring another layer of musicality and the subtle nature of the whole track means it really hits on a powerful emotional level and leaves a lasting impression. 

This is a wonderful reinterpretation that introduces CISUMMI's fresh sound to the world in style.

London-born artist N1NJA debuts on Mobilee Records with a mesmerising melodic techno offering, ‘A Frequency Illusion’.

Described by DJ Mag as a ‘mega-talented, fast-rising star’, DJ, podcaster and producer N1NJA, whose real name is Farah Nanji, is heavily influenced by her roots from the Indian and African subcontinents, which come together in her DJ sets and productions, the latest of which is for the Mobilee imprint. “Based on the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon, ‘A Frequency Illusion’ is a hypnotic progressive techno track
that draws inspiration from the elusive, mysterious nature of ninjas and how sound can alter the perception of
time and space” - N1NJA.
The title track 'A Frequency Illusion' is a spellbinding ride through euphoric soundscapes that transport the
listener to a starry landscape. Glistening synth leads, soaring pads and organic percussion coalesce in a
hypnotising fashion that mirrors the fluidity of a ninja.
Next up, ‘London Blues’ is a slow-blooming cut that ventures into sparser electronic territories. Cavernous
bass stabs and tribal drums are guided by a clean blues guitar lead that ebbs and flows between the intricate
pockets of space, making for a moving finale inspired by the streets of London.
Farah’s impact extends beyond her artistic endeavours; her TEDx Talk on overcoming neurodiversity as a
musician and interviews with industry heavyweights like Carl Cox and Alan Fitzpatrick on her number one
podcast series Mission Makers have shed light on much of the underground music scene’s biggest
misconceptions.
This is an artfully crafted release that showcases the depth of N1NJA’s sound palette, ‘A Frequency Illusion’ is
released on Mobilee on 7th April 2023.

Libertad

PREMIERE: Murmusica - Libertad Feat. TAI, Tolga Bilgin [Sol Selectas]

Crosstown Rebels’ sub-label Rebellion returns with a fourth instalment of its ongoing SOULS series, with fresh tracks from a selection of exciting, up-and-coming talent.
Curated by label head Damian Lazarus, Rebellion’s excellent SOULS series has always transcended sounds and scenes to dig deep into the most forward-thinking new electronic niches. It has a deeply embedded spiritual theme, like most projects with which Lazarus is associated, and this volume again connects the dots between a number of innovative producers from across the globe.
Belgrade and Mykonos-based duo MĪMĪ x FY open up with ‘Robotic Mode’, linking with Estray for a silky synth- laced house cut that goes deep into a cosmic future. The deft chords, spoken words and sci-fi signifiers enrich the groove perfectly. Brazil's Vini Pistori is next with ‘Hypnotized’, a scintillating fusion of pixelated melodies and bright, starry-eyed chords over a drawn-out and languid groove that is perfect for the late-night hours.
Frequent collaborators MILI and Hoomance then step up with ‘Casa Mama’, a playful cut with a carnival feel thanks to the characterful horns which bounce about over the crisp drums. It's a track full of soul and sunshine that captures the joy of dancing outdoors. OMRI closes things with the rubbery bass and skewed synth futurism of his off-grid percussive masterclass, 'Funk Rhythm.’
Another taste-making statement from the label and Lazarus, Rebellion presents SOULS Vol.4 is loaded with the sounds of tomorrow across another excellently curated package.

Beat Drops

PREMIERE: Modbit - Beat Drops [Melody Lab]

Curated by the beloved-by-all Mexican duo Zombies In Miami, Creatures Of The Night is one of those labels whose output manages to be virtually impeccable. Lauer, Mahkina (FREEDL038), Mystery Affair (SXDNS202), and Shubostar (SXDNS042) are some of the highlights of its growing discography. The new addition: Schiela’s “ALL NIGHT, BABY!”, featuring remixes by none other than Benjamin Fröhlich and Known Artist, marks his very first endeavour as a producer and showcases the potential of the rising & shining Berlin-based virtuoso who has been shaking both local and international dance floors with his vibrant and upbeat sonority.

Master Fröhlich – yeah, that guy from Permanent Vacation – debuts on Zombie’s outlet with a signature interpretation of the single. On his hands, “ALL NIGHT, BABY!” jumped from 132 to 122 BPM and had its cosmic Trance aura replaced by a groovy and frolic (pun not intended) percussive layer which dressed the beautiful vocals in a gala attire ready to make an impression during the hot European summer.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label: https://www.beatport.com/label/creatures-of-the-night/102017

Free Download: WOTAFAK - Isolate (Original Mix)

Stripped Down Records is a brand new label that will focus on raw grooves. Founded by Claudio Ricci and Christian and Monika Zorn, the first release comes from Ricci and features essential remixes from Timo Maas & Basti Grub, Kintar and Metodi Hristov.
Claudio Ricci has nearly 20 years experience in dance music with his music taking cues from all genres and coming on labels like Compost and MoBack. As a DJ he is just as diverse and always leans on more organic sounds and rich melodies. His timeless single here is a great way to kick off the new label.
Entitled ‘Warschauer Strasse’, it is seven excellently expansive minutes of twisted synths that bring real tension to deep house drums. Cosmic keys take the track into intergalactic realms and as the pads percolate they continue to bring raw energy to the groove.
The first remix comes from long time techno heavyweight and Rockets & Ponies boss Timo Maas and the prolific and inventive Basti Grub. Their singular remix speeds up the original and layers in fluttering toms and percussive sounds as well as broad, groaning synths and the distant sound of a bustling city at rush hour. It swells and sinks back a number of times to keep you locked and along for a most thrilling ride.

'ROWA and SANOI are the newest faces to join the Heinz Music family. Having already had a strong solo releases, the guys found each other in this musical landscape and decided to merge their forces.  

Their “Thunderbird EP” has two originals and one remix, and you quickly understand why them coming together seems meant to be. The title track is filled with slithering synths and soft percussions. Rolling forward like a wave the track lives of the swerving atmosphere underlined by a slightly darker synth, which breaks up when the beautiful piano leads into the next drop.  

“Affect” is the second track of the release, and a pulsating bassline serves the bouncing groove surrounded by mystical elements and the enchanting overlaying melodic synth.

No doubt this is a big release with the capability to free its listeners of the moment and letting them dreamaway.'
