Nice piece Jamie! Love the juxtaposition of acoustic instrument samples against the backdrop of lush melodic analogue like tones.

2020 was a year when we all needed beams of light at the end of the longest, darkest tunnel the world had found itself in decades. Instinctively, the Selador community rose to the challenge, none more so than Kiz Pattison & Micah, whose collaborative debut was a massive breakout tune from our Tenth Chapter showcase EP.

As DJ streams and dancing on impromptu dancefloors at home became the norm, Beam of Light became a regular feature in many a lockdown soundtrack, a major tune for the likes of Sasha, Anthony Pappa and of course our own directorship, Seaman & Parry. So with the vaccines arolling, club and festival dates being firmed up in our diaries and that beam of light seemingly growing brighter by the day, what better way to celebrate than with a top drawer remix package?

Booom! We are delighted to welcome Brazils techno don Renato Cohen back to Selador. Here he zeros in on the first of the original mixs killer hooks, the 80s styled motif that starts and ends the track, and builds an electro throbber that sounds like the Human League through a sparkling rave filter.

Oooof! Kiz & Micah then themselves deliver a new take, the 4am Dub, a darker, moodier interpretation of their original, showing off their deeper tendencies, like a big sister luring you over to the darker recesses of the dancefloor.

Pow! Long-time friend of Selador Robert Babicz, takes the hook from the originals showpiece drop and delivers a low slung breaks driven re-rub custom made for all you dubwise bass bin lurkers. And theres more its a Babicz double drop as he tenders an ambient mix that gives all those magical synth layers maximum room to breathe, gently building on the breeze.

Kerching! Were not finished yet! Its VFM time as Kiz and Micah deliver a brand new bonus track, the afroacidtechfunk workout that is The Key. Not to be missed, this beauty deserves its own moment in the spotlight, twisting and turning its way to instant earworm central.

And there you have it, the futuress so bright we gotta wear shades.

Continuing a strong summer season, Madloch’s Sound Avenue imprint presents new interpretations of Nopi’s ‘Flatter’. Originally released in October of 2020 as part of the Ukrainian’s well received ‘Where to Go’ EP, the creation rounded out the collection on the strength of Sarah Chilanti’s dreamy vocals and a delicate piano top line. Now bringing new life to the much loved track, Sound Avenue invites Dmitry Molosh, about:river and GastoM to provide their own interpretations for the summer season.

The first interpretation is provided by Dmitry Molosh who returns to the label for his fifth appearance. The Belarus based producer sits firmly in progressive music’s elite class of artists, showcasing his work via Cid Inc’s Replug Records, Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music, Nick Warren’s Hope Recordings and Guy Mantzur’s Plattenbank Records. As a mainstay in Beatport’s sales charts, Dmitry now makes a welcome return to Sound Avenue with a powerful rendition of ‘Flatter’. Beginning with warm beats and effervescent percussion, it’s the pulsating nature of the groove which becomes instantly compelling. Driving, chunky and full of great character, it anchors what is a cosmic slice of progressive house. Emerging melodies marry luminous tones across the first act, before a break of clustered arps and colourful tonal tension spearheads an electric drop and epic finale. 

Making their label debut and providing the second interpretation of ‘Flatter’ is about:river. The Ukrainian duo is a unique collaborative project between father and son. Their productions tell a dynamic and sometimes epic story that happens to be set in a dance-groove environment. Conceptualized by father Oleg in 2018, the following year saw his 12 year old son Ervin join the project. Initially a clarinet and keyboard player, Ervin quickly became a committed member of the project, contributing not only to live performances but also in the creative process, writing the main themes of their musical creations. Now with releases via Proton’s Particles and Nie Wieder Schlafen, about:river makes their Sound Avenue debut with a gorgeous take on ‘Flatter’. From a deeper vision, the duo draws on the sensibilities of the original, utilizing Sarah’s emotive vocals over a bed of organic breakbeats, exotic percussion and creamy pianos. Placid pads and whimsical arps emerge across the seven-minute excursion, setting the scene for a heartfelt conclusion. 

Also making his label debut and providing the final interpretation of ‘Flatter’ is GastoM. Born in Mendoza and now based in Buenos Aires, the Argentinean artist fuses elements of organic and progressive house, along with live recordings of instruments and drums for a sound that is all his own. A recent remix of MartyOn & JörgK via label subsidiary 3rd Avenue has proved to be a discography highlight, immediately rising to the number one position in his Beatport best sellers just one month following the release. Now stepping up to parent label Sound Avenue, GastoM makes his debut on the much-loved Belgian imprint with a groovy interpretation of ‘Flatter’.

Flatter (Remixes)

Beatport

Nōpi, Sarah Chilanti - Flatter (GastoM Remix) [Sound Avenue]

'Nightcolours search for the best new talent leads them to the Newcastle’s Baardman for their 50th release.

In his burgeoning career, Baardman has already racked up an impressive CV of labels including Pursuit, Dear Deer & Eton Messy.

Kicking things off with title track Helpless Euphoria, you’re immediately immersed into Baardman’s spacious, atmospheric & twitchy soundscape. Robotic clicks and twisted mournful vocals flit in and out before the delicate melodic flourishes enter the scene lifting things into a euphoric haze.

Next is Lead by Love, straight away the tempo is lifted and the feeling is more urgent. Based around a deliciously feel good melodic line that meanders effortlessly throughout, this one drives forward with uplifting goodness.

Cries rounds off the EP with its muscular, menacing synths and driving beats. Dark, trippy sounds infiltrate throughout keeping the vibe thoroughly heads down before a sunlit arp breaks through the darkness and pushes the track on even further.'

Moonface - Futurised fears (Guy J mix)

“What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset” - Blackfoot

Through the mist and fog, from the highest peaks, to the lowest troughs, winter brings a chill across the depths of the Tasman. Amidst the icey planes, the people look for warmth. And it is the fire of music that warms a warriors heart. Just as some start to lose hope, a vibrational transformation occurs. A cosmic collaboration. Across the astral, through dimensions up and down, it’s emergence reverberates through the cosmos. Some call them Dusty Troopers. Others call them Cowboys from another time, occupying a place outside of our continuum. But their name is not important, for their waves are where their magic lies.

Warm your heart by our fire friend, for you have travelled far and wide. We did not come here to cry, but to dance, enlivened by the richness of the fruits we call life. We thank you for joining us on this journey, and hope it brings you what your heart desires most. We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.
