Stuffs Winter 2022

Download / Vinyl / Stream: toy-tonics.lnk.to/Nogueira

Arpy Brown return to Toy Tonics with an EP showcasing emotionally layered dance tracks and their refusal to stick to genre conventions. The duo are synonymous with sublime cuts that are just as suited to late nights and early mornings on the dancefloor, as they are to home-listening, this perfectly exhibited on the "Noguiera" EP.

The four-tracker is named after a remote place in the mountains around Rio de Janeiro where it was made on a creatively fruitful getaway in 2021. It's sentimental, joyful, bouncy, and futuristic, and showcases the duo’s musicality combining bass guitar and piano, with hardware synths, loops and fragmented vocal samples.

Robin explains - "Spending time in Brazil in recent years was a blessing. The nature, culture and musical heritage over there is beautiful. Mostly in solitude, as I ended up spending most of my time in a remote place in the mountains around Rio, music became the only real emotional outlet for a while. So in a way this is a record of dance music created as far away as we’ve ever been from the dance floor!"

Both from a live performance background, Robin and Avi met studying at Goldsmiths London and found their way to the dance floor via playing in bands, Robin a guitarist, Avi classically trained in trumpet and later on picking up the keys. Absorbing the community of South London, they eventually set up artist collective and record label Squareglass - a proudly established home for new artists coming out of the area. They’ve remixed for the likes of Rhythm Section, collaborated with Olugbenga, and their releases have come with reworks from Ross from Friends, Cameo Blush, Baltra and Seb Wildblood. In 2021, their hybrid sound found a new home with tastemaker German label Toy Tonics who released their "Vesta" EP in May, followed by a run of European tour dates including Funkhaus Berlin, Phonox London and Amsterdam Dance Event.

Release Text:
Following on last year’s standout 7” release from Diogo Strausz, RNT now reveals the incredible extended mixes of the original pair of tunes, along with a strikingly beautiful remix of the title track by the inimitable Ron Trent. Originally conceived by the Brazilian producer to be long form songs that showcased the deep musicianship of Strausz and his cohorts, extended organ and piano solos and instrumentation now stretch out in all their jazzy glory across one side of a heavyweight 180g 12”. On the the A-side, Ron Trent takes Emancipação positively interstellar, with added instrumentation and mounting percussion that builds toward a soulful and hypnotic peak, the way only he can do!

PREMIERE: Diogo Strausz - Emancipacao (Extended Mix) [Razor-N-Tape]

When I listened to Sacrifice by the Weeknd (over the weekend) I was blown away by the track and at the same time the main synth melody and the tone of the track was pretty similar to my track I DO https://soundcloud.com/eskimorecordings/nteibint-i-do

so a mash-up was inevitable, happy new year!

Absolute lushness from the ever-consistent Tilman, reworking Vancouver's Stekl on the title track for his EP on LA's Fantastic Voyage. Breezy piano chords and pads flit across rubbery bass and a commanding vocal sample, with the deepness tempered with a good rhythmic thrust.

French producer Dj Merci has has popped up previously on the pages of LV online with his ace Late Night Ep last year. Now he is back with another fantastic release in the shape of his classy 5 track Innervisions Ep for Dobro.

Combining classic house keys, with throbbing basslines, chunky drums and an energised cut and paste ethos it's a masterful EP.

Our premier today from the EP is the rather funky groover Boogie Down which combines boogie bass with some ace keys, percussion licks and loads of feel good attitude. Check it here and jump over to LV online for more via:
