St. Bones EP

Pletnev - St. Bones

Autarkic - Heavy Dreamer 
https://LifeAndDeath.lnk.to/HeavyDreamer

Autarkic makes-up part of an unspoken alliance from Tel-Aviv, which is currently altering the state of contemporary house and techno music. Heavy Dreamer, the artist’s first, four-track outing on Life and Death, showcases much of what this bold movement is about, all while pushing it forward into progress.  

Ever-present tones of kraut and punk rock flow throughout the EP, beginning with Some Things To Keep, a pumping, warehouse floor-filler. Autarkic steps up to the mic, often re-amping and distorting his vocal delivery, placing it alongside finely-programmed keyboard riffs, tough drums and further psychedelia. Realistic Guru, the trippiest of the lot, is tailor-made for an early-morning DJ Tennis after-party excursion. Slowing down the pace on Powerhouse, Autarkic hints at moments of Bauhaus’ and Tones on Tail’s doom-and-dance pop, while offering-up a digital-only, stripped-down, bonus version. The title track stands as a testament to this new wave of artists, coming from the shores of Israel’s Mediterranean coastline. Bass, drums and guitar are recorded through bespoke boxes and presented through the lens of modernist club-culture. 

Life and Death 37 marks a moment in time - out June 29th!

PREMIERE: Mijo & Local Suicide - Ganz Falsch (Mexico City Version) [Roam Recordings]
Release Title: EDO KAI TORA / GANZ FALSCH EP
Artist: MIJO & LOCAL SUICIDE
Label: Roam Recordings
Catalogue No.: ROM060
Release-Date: 20.07.2018
Pre-Order: https://www.beatport.com/release/edo-kai-tora-ganz-falsch/2327207


Mexican Dj & producer Mijo and Berlin duo Local Suicide collide in a wonderfully fresh and inventive collaboration on their latest EP ‚Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch‘. Local Suicide, comprised of couple Brax Moody (Munich) and Vamparela (Thessaloniki), weaves in their signature blend of Post-Disco, New Wave, Jacking Acid, and Slow Dark Techno while Mijo injects his own stylings of the Latin Techno that he helped to define and create.

The result is a spacious, energetic, and stunning product from start to finish. As the latest installment from San Francisco-based label Roam Recordings, which specializes in Dark Disco, Post Techno, EBM, and Acid, ‚Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch‘ is an impressive sonic feat that will leave you dancing all night.

The EP opens with the original ‚Edo Kai Tora‘, an infectious uptempo track with hypnotic, oscillating synths and an undeniable groove. Greek Vamparela of Local Suicide brings her voice to the track. The result is a sultry, spoken vocal that repeats the resounding phrase ‚Edo Kai Tora‘, which in Greek translates into ‚Here And Now‘. The words themselves couldn‘t be more fitting to the overall feel of the project, which has an extremely ‚in the moment‘ sensibility to it. In ‚Ganz Falsch‘, Mijo and Local Suicide revitalize the electronic boogie, keeping things light and fun with a warbling bass hook juxtaposed with a playful, spitting rhythmic vocal.

Supporting the EP, Berlin-based DJ/Producer Sascha Funke along with Moscow Duo Simple Symmetry lend their talents to create standout reinterpretations of both title tracks. Where Sascha Funke fleshes out the darker, cosmic undertones of ‚Edo Kai Tora‘, Simple Symmetry mix in an extra kick of pop and funk sensibilities to the project by layering rhythmic, post-punk garage style guitars into ‚Ganz Falsch‘, bringing to mind the underground indie rock scene of Southern California. The project comes to a delightful close with an additional digital bonus track - an energetic dance version of ‚Ganz Falsch‘.

As a whole, the EP is an electric, collaborative accomplishment of unique sonic character, versatile and exemplifying the best of each producers creative talents. ‚Edo Kai Tora/Ganz Falsch‘ is set for release this July 20th under Roam Recordings.

Alani - Al Meraya (Marc Piñol Remix) [Mumbai Records]

OUT NOW: http://lnk.to/TerrPH86

Brazilian-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer Terr makes her Phantasy debut with the sensational single, ‘Tale of Devotion’.

Arguably one of the catchiest moments in Phantasy’s musical history, Terr delivers a wide-eyed vision of sincere synth pop pleasure, backed by a sublime Prins Thomas Diskomiks.

Undoubtedly indebted to the visionary modulations of Giorgio Moroder, Phil Oakey and Wendy Carlos, ‘Tale of Devotion’ flawlessly captures the romance, ecstasy and opportunity throbbing at the heart of dancefloors for the past fifty years. No mere nostalgia trip, Terr delivers a soaring vocal performance that proves to be the warm, ambiguous heart of the track, driven by bubbling, cosmic electronics and flashes of orchestral melodrama.

Prins Thomas establishes a contrasting groove for the latest in his beloved legacy of ‘Discomiks’ reworks. Somewhat dialling in the conscious hi-NRG of the original production, the Norwegian maestro’s undulating, percussive edit places Terr’s wistful vocal journey centre stage, while branches of halcyon disco blossom around her.

Tale Of Devotion

Finally! After years of releases on some of the most important labels in electronic music, DFA's Juan Maclean makes his debut on Correspondant with his glorious Manthony EP.

Four slabs of thumping cosmic disco; all modulating basslines and heavy chug dynamics, Juan is a man of many styles but it's clear he's tailored these especially for Jennifer Cardini's label. The primordial acidic soup of opener 'Manthony', the cloud-bouncing dreaminess of 'Bufomania', the tense bewitching adventure of 'She's Breaking Up' (with the purring cat-like vocals of Fantastic Twins) and the creepy, ever-mutating pranged out finale 'In A Minute'.

As an artist who states that DJing is "literally my favourite thing in life", Juan Maclean has once again delivered a collection of transcendent dancefloor moments for both DJs and Dancers alike.

Bufomania

Exclusive: Abrão - Intensidade (Rina Remix)

Combining darkness and happiness in his music Tel Aviv-based artist Rina has left his footprints in the blossoming nightlife scene of his country and beyond, always having an ear for aspiring, local or renowned artists. Maybe the latter is his key to success or the reason why Asaf, Rina’s real name, has been a scene’s mainstay, or maybe it’s his unagitated way how to deal and approach music that made him win the laurels. However, Rina’s got something (fried) cooking - musically - that is on his way from the dark underground to daylight. So Asaf took on intense remix duties for Abrão’s track Intensidade - so basically one project of his remixes another one he’s involved with - on Frank Wiedemann’s Bigamo Musik imprint. Shortly before the release Asaf spoke to Torture the Artist, not only about the remix and his relationship to music but also about falafel. the underground, balancing things out, his Jazz-band and Suppe Bekifft.

EXCLUSIVE: Abrão - Intensidade (Rina Remix) [Bigamo]

The https://soundcloud.com/new_world is upon us once again. It has been seven years already, since Markus Gebauer debuted on Riotvan under the guise of his New World moniker. That's quite a while in the realm of those sometimes short-term goings-on of clubculture. Yet, Gebauer kept himself busy meanwhile with his alter ego Interviews, reviving the erstwhile identity now that times are calling for a New World more than ever. And that's both, very generally speaking and particularly regarding his slick and classy approach to Neo-Disco-affairs. Interestingly, the lion's share of this EP had been laid down already five years ago, in an ahead of the curve nature that it couldn't sound more up to date right now in 2020. 

Take opener "Glances" for example. Suspense-packed arpeggio meets a groove-laden bass, gets kissed by some smooth melodies and far-out pads and evokes an immense open-air-hymn potential. Here's a little advance notice: that tune might not leave your head for the whole rest of the summer. "Enough!" in its seductive nonchalance seems to be cut from the same cloth. Another Indie-Disco sureshot filtered through shades-lenses. But "Enough!" - seriously? The hereby summoned feelgood-vibe will surely leave you wanting more. And more you shall get. "Fade Out" opens up with a rather straight beat-pattern, but again, the synth-arrangements, the melodies and harmonies are pure bliss. And then there is "Poéme", that Frankophile floor-enchantment, shaped out in sophistication and elegance, throwing in some subtle Depeche Mode-references and taking the French leave as one of the strongest clubtracks in this batch. Closing things up is https://soundcloud.com/the-juan-maclean, giving "Enough!" a makeover that aims for the dancefloor as much as, let's say the hammock, infusing both, an irresistible groove and a laid back, almost Dub-like attitude.
