2013 marks the introduction of a new imprint in dance music: Touch of Class Records. The label’s founders, PillowTalk producer and member Michael Tello along side Ray Zuniga, pay homage to their fathers’ business continuing the family name and artistic principle. Originally from Los Angeles, the label mates migrated north to San Francisco and now live bi-coastal in NYC and Berlin. TOC Records puts a new West Coast label on the map aspiring to exhibit the distinctive deep-house and raw-techno textures that embody both hometowns.

Michael and Ray began their musical collaboration four years ago, giving birth to the innovative partnership that is Signal Flow. The duo spends their time producing and DJing around the US, South America, Berlin and throughout Europe, having quickly made a name for their eclectic sound and energy.

Touch of Class Records showcases upcoming releases from Signal Flow, Jonny Cruz, Aquarius Heaven, Tone of Arc, Navid Izadi, Strangers in Heaven, Andres Caballero, dOP, PillowTalk, and many others.

The forthcoming release of Signal Flow entitled “Dirty Hands E.P.” features two prodigious original compositions including the lead track entitled “Dirty Hands” co-produced by label mate Jonny Cruz and laced with the signature sound and intoxicating lyrics of Berlin’s, Aquarius Heaven on vocals. Since the labels premier showcase and live performance after the BPM Festival in Tulum Mexico, the track has received serious buzz and positive acclaim. Accompanying the lead track is “Drug Lips”, a dark but beautiful techno beat with melodic and sultry vocal flavors by Wolf + Lamb newcomer, Navid Izadi. Supporting the two original tracks is a dubbed out disco funk remix of Drug Lips produced by Izadi himself and an instrumental mix which rounds out this new labels debut EP perfectly.

Home of the the space between my ears. Mixes of records and digis I’ve been buying. Hope you enjoy ☯️🥁

From French father and Minahasan mother, Onyx Tikal was born and raised in capital city of Jakarta. An adept of spiritual food, soulful connections Onyx is deeply moved by ancestral, folk and ceremonial entrancing music. She finds that the right music can be great medicine for the soul. With a multi cultural upbringing, Onyx DMT has developed an ear, and from a rich repertoire of world music spanning from India, the Middle East and South East Asia - she has cultivated listening, to remember sounds, scales or harmonies and sing the song lines of emotion. Continuously nourished by the music of the peoples of Mongolia, Persia, Afrika, and by rare and strange sonic signatures coming from very remote parts of the world, Onyx continues to explore with percussive instruments, mouth harps to name a few. Intuitive singing and drumming are her mediums to practice devotion to the Self, the Other and The One.  

Through inspirational philosophies found in Sufism, Buddhism, and Animism, Tikal feels into the space and energies around intentionally. In "Sabda", now called L.I.V.E. in Prayer circles she invites us to offer our gifts in collaborative sound creation through the medium of our vocal chords and our heart where songlines are channeled in alignment with where the body sits like an anchor, we open the instrument to make an offering with only what we have in infinity, our spirit or consciousness - to remember our "power" and to gift in elation to Source, to Creation - residing in each of us. Let us celebrate raw beauty in WHAT IS by purely experiencing life moment to moment.

Outside of Sabda meditations or LIVE circles, with immense pleasure in working alongside Travis Jekks on the Tar - another string player and soul brother, and Duke Autret, guitarist and intuitive player, Tikal will sing to the deep sorrows, to the heart aches and the profound joys. She will open aspects of the heart to guide into an elating musical journey that inspires and allows for one to face emotions as they come, as they are. In honoring them, Tikal feels it is a way of flowing with grace, of relating to oneself, of riding the wave of personal acceptance.
 
Tikal gives weekly intuitive singing circles now called Liberate Intuitive Voice Expression, and events once a month called L.I.V.E. in Prayer & Meditation.
Events of sound meditations are also not to be missed. She finds them to be excellent ways for exploring the aspects of the constantly manifested self, the vastness of the mind, the profound intelligence of the body and the driving mysteries of the soul. 
The intutive singing circles are more for inspiring RADICAL CHANGE, to support great inner transformation, and she finds this "medium" being one of her favourite ways of cultivating our inner power.

Share a circle with Tikal in Melbourne, she brings appreciation to instinctual music. 
Weekly singing meditations at the JING healthcare clinic in Lilydale.
