Kim Brown - Nabi 1970 EP
Just Another Beat, JAB 11
Vinyl / Digital
Street: February 19th 2016
Tracklisting:
A: Nabi (Quarion’s Farewell To Hardware Remix)
B: Visiona 1970

After a 2-year hiatus from the mothership, Kim Brown return to Just Another Beat with a new 12“, including the brand-new track “Visiona 1970“ and an exceptionally impressive remix of “Nabi“, one of the outstanding tracks off their debut album “Somewhere Else It’s Going To be Good“, beautifully executed by Quarion.

It was Quarion aka Yanneck Salvo himself who approached the Berlin-based duo, being eager to work on his own version of the track and taking it to the next level. The result equals en epic transformation. Using only the key melodic elements of the rather quiet and lush original, Quarion’s version is much more than a remix. It’s more like a cover version, showcasing his own unique approach of how to first dismantle and then carefully, bit by bit, rebuild the peak time moment of the dancefloor. Clocking in at just under 10 minutes, to be enjoyed best from start to finish, this is a voyage extraordinaire.

On the flip, “Visiona 1970“ presents Kim Brown in a glistening rainbow of deep colours. With freely shuffling hi-hats, intimate percussion and some of their most beautiful melodies yet, this track marks a turning point for the project. Having mainly released remixes for other artists recently, Ji-Hun Kim and Julian Braun have been constantly working on a new album as well, which will finally see the light of day not long after the release of this EP. In the meantime, please enjoy these 2 tracks.

Traumraum proudly welcomes Kaled to the family. As part of the infamous production duo, Cosmic Cowboys, he’s well known for passionate output on labels such as Compost, Rotary Cocktail, Bedrock, and many more. After his successful solo debut on Lee Burridge’s Get Weird label, the Italian artist presents his second solo EP on Patrick Zigon’s freshly launched Traumraum imprint.

The Endless Story EP is inspired by Kaled’s home base, the beautiful lagoon of Venice: a true fairy- tale area known for amazing landscapes and natural spectacles bridging air, water, and sun. The EP catapults you directly into Kaled’s emotional cosmos full of scents and colors, letting you hover over the Venetian sea and vault into the blue sky. Eventually transforming into a trademark Venice sunset - when the sun warms the spirits as they traverse the darkness of night - truly magical things take place; as the noise leaves room for silence, spirits fly towards the infinite again.

The combination of Kaled’s search for simplicity with his larger-than-life emotions results in a dreamy four-tracker with a gentle, sensual sound and constant groove, finalized by Werner Niedermeier mastering, and a beautiful artwork by MAZi. More info: www.traumraum.org

Ton Globiter aka Dominique joins Roam Recordings with his debut EP 'Equilibrium'. Dark electronics, moving rhythms, and crafty synth stylings characterize this excellent release from the Lithuanian based producer. Ton Globiter (under the moniker Dominique) first caught the attention of Roam Recordings with his Erosion single offered as a free download and featured by Lithuanian music blog WhyPeopleDance. A perfect match for the label, Roam Recordings picked up two new originals from the up and coming artist that are presented here.

The EP is backed by two superb remixes from Connor and K-Effect. Connor, who has been prolific lately on labels such as Nein and Esthetique Records, delivers a masterful workout with his sublime driving remix of the title track Equilibrium. After their successful 'No Smoke' EP, K-Effect returns to Roam Recordings to bring an alluring psychedelic deep and hypnotic remix of Hocus Pocus.

Together the four mixes offer a solid EP of slightly left field dance music from artists on the rise.

Exclusive DJ Hotel 'Sleepless'

Known for their exquisite taste Tom Bioly and Benjamin Fröhlich installed Permanent Vacation as a label that features electronic music from underground to renowned to highly acknowledged artists. What unites these people is their common sentiment of producing edgy music, with each track, each EP and each album representing these simple standalone features that can shortly be summed up as each artist's trademark sound. After having had Marvin & Guy, Fort Romeau or Yør Kultura on the label this year already, it's now time for DJ Hotel to book his Permanent Vacation-spot. His five-tracker 'Sleepless' is musically a homage to deep House music. The pads and chords in the EP's eponymous track create an ongoing momentum of reckless abandon to chosen and merged elements, which even gain a deeper note with Hotel's vocal insertions throughout the track. The driving bass line as well as the vocal-snippets, which are basically a question, 'Are you ready?' and the answer to it, 'yes' are drowned by a fiddle that harmonically suits the track's overall composition, hence it adds a melancholic profoundness to 'Sleepless' and basically simulates 'sleep' - a sleep that is continuously interrupted by a sound that reminds one of sending an email and therefore evoke anxiety leading to sleeplessness.

DJ Hotel's EP 'Sleepless' will be released on Permanent Vacation on June 21st, 2019.
