MIURA - Three Dots
Stream & Buy - https://turborec.lnk.to/ThreeDots

At Turbo, each day is a gift we unwrap with our hearts and ears. And in this respect, the label debut from Miura represents nothing less than a Christmas beyond compare. This Ukrainian DJ/producer’s angular, ultra-modern house sound has broken through to the S-tier of the European club circuit, and she first came on our radar after meeting Turbo founder/creator/ombudsman Tiga in Ibiza this past summer. We must stress that “chance meetings” are NOT a viable path for ambitious young artists who think hiding in Tiga's luggage with a pen drive will get them anything but his personal phone number and a week’s worth of heavily discounted “DJ lessons."

For this release, Miura was generous enough to provide us with heartfelt and poetic notes on each track, which we will present verbatim, accompanied by only the most respectful SEO-optimized comments:

1) I Do

Miura: "This track dives into the realm of fantasy. It’s a story of him calling her, longing to immerse himself in her inner world as she escapes into her thoughts, sitting in the stillness of her bath.”

Turbo: You may be delighted to learn that Turbo HQ features a bathtub of its own, designed for fully-clothed "wet brainstorming” as killer Hi-NRG-inflected hits like “I Do” play over the unreliable-at-best bathtub sound system.

2) 7AM In A Lovetown ft. Melon Blush

Miura: "This song captures the magic of love. It’s about locking eyes on the dancefloor as the first rays of sunlight stream in, sharing stolen kisses to the rhythm of the music, and confessing your heart in the early morning light.”

Turbo: While we are certainly no strangers to after-hours dancefloor romance anthems, we will note that confessing your heart in an early afternoon email can be just as effective and leaves the door open for follow-ups that say things like, “Just giving this a quick bump :)” and “It’s been 45 minutes — are you ok???"

3) Three Dots

Miura: "This track was born in a bomb shelter in Kyiv. In the midst of chaos, the only refuge for my mental health was putting on headphones and creating music until the noise around me faded. It’s a song of resilience, featuring the Ukrainian words, "що нас не вбиває робить нас сильнішими" ("what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger"). I dedicate this track to everyone on this planet fighting their own unseen battles…”

Turbo: This narrative runs far closer to being genuinely meaningful than we are normally comfortable with. Please have the decency to let us call it a “five-star house banger replete with arpeggiated synth flourishes and sleek vocals” from the safety of our comfort zone, which is itself replete with back issues of Modern Lizard magazine, and leave us be.

4) Call Me ft. Cafius

Miura: “This track is a playful ode to the friends who are always just a call away—like Tamagotchi in our pockets, always there when we need them most.”

Turbo: This acid gem offers a wonderful metaphor, with calling someone (which you should never do) standing in for texting someone (which you should do when you want something).

You gotta and oughta know by now that releasing world-class music the whole year round is both squarely and firmly in our wheelhouse. And if you’ve never been to our wheelhouse, stop in some time to chat over a piping stack of wheelcakes. It should be fun.

MIURA - Three Dots

PRE-ORDER: https://loveontherocks.bandcamp.com/album/moonrise-vii

Panorama Bar resident Paramida has announced her second EP, via her own Love On The Rocks imprint. The ‘Moonrise VII’ EP includes 3 cuts of hands in the air, good time house, F1 tunnel rave and emotional dream house and flaunts her signature take on colourful, trance-inflected visions of the dance floor.

EP opener ‘Sailor Moon House’ merges beautiful, colourful and chaotic energy. An infinity cruise of pure joy, it’s hyper-colour trance clouds break to a shiny new dawn of driving rhythms, acid bass hooks and searching sonar pings. 

"After hours of watching YouTube footage from early 90’s beach raves in Goa, I was inspired to embody this spirit and somehow bring if back,” Paramida says. “I’d spent years telling artists that want to release on LOTR to try and do the same, to soundtrack that moment of ecstasy at 8am as the sun comes, then I realised I should just do it myself. That's essentially why I started making music, to capture that moment and what it means to me. Sailor Moon House is exactly that.”

Premiere: Paramida 'Sailor Moon House'

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/guycontact
Track: Amygdala Tongue Wobble
Label: https://soundcloud.com/x-kalay
Format: 12" Vinyl, Digital EP
Release date: 30/01/23
YouTube: https://youtu.be/y6NE9lENas4

Next up on X-Kalay it’s fresh heat from one of the finest among a current generation of prog-inclined producers. Guy Contact’s ‘Out of My Head (Into My Body)’ speaks to a sublime, utopian conception of dancefloor utility; dance music primed to achieve ascension through collective physical experience.
Navigating mystic, offbeat zones, Contact sets out his stall from the start. ‘Out of My Head (Into My Body)’ is as pristine as it is expansive, inducing trance states as trippy flourishes oscillate over driving rhythm in impeccable lysergic style. Then, with another dose of melt-on-the-mind groove, a radiant bliss-out arrives in the beautifully buoyant flex of ‘Sacred Mist’.
Taking its name from a part of the brain associated with emotional processes, ‘Amygdala Tongue Wobble’ propels into fractal introspection with dense, insistent pulse. Finally, ‘Optimystic’ finds Contact channelling new age spirits as he assumes the role of innerzone healer - wide-eyed downtempo to close things out.

The second edition of this vital series features world-renowned talents such as Benjamin Fröhlich, Venice Arms aka Curses, Massimiliano Pagliara, Zombies in Miami, label founder Jorkes, and many more.

Queer Base is a charity in Vienna that offers social and legal counselling to LGBTQI+ refugees who arrive in Austria, including providing help with court cases, finding housing, community events, organising German lessons, HIV/STI testing, and more. Further details can be found at https://queerbase.at/.

This tastefully curated selection traverses the electronic spectrum in style. Polygonia opens with supple and trippy minimal on 'Cheeky Seduction' and things build through dubby, stripped-back analogue grooves from HCL, typically bright, jacked-up, and synth-heavy sounds from Massimiliano Pagliara on 'Distant Memory' and retro-future disco-house from Benjamin Fröhlich. CYRK's 'Fade 2 Gay' is a slow-motion and moody dark disco chugger before Gunce Aci picks it up with some skyward arps and slap-funk drums on 'Whatever It Takes.'

Elsewhere Zombie Affair, aka Zombies in Miami & Mystery Affair, offer the body-popping electro-disco of 'Girl, You Got Me', Panooc's 'Pellucid' is a throwback and sensual vocal house cut and Lydia Eisenblätter brings all out piano house joy to 'What Is Love' before the closer from Mala Ika is another celebratory cut full of hands in the air synths and joyous drums.

This compilation is not only an essential listen but also an essential project that highlights and supports the vital work undertaken by Queer Base. The artwork was created by label creative powerhouse Daniel Rajcsanyi, and the LP was mastered by Blackheadstudios.

Turbo Recordings was founded by Tiga in Montreal back in 1998. In addition to launching his own career, the label has been integral in the success of acts like Chromeo, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont and most recently, ANNA & Charlotte de Witte. Core talent includes ZZT (Tiga's collaboration with Zombie Nation), Jori Hulkkonen, BETON, Clouds, Harvard Bass, Pilo, Shaded, Dimitri Veimar and a host of new young producers in genres ranging from pure techno, electro, and house to pop. The list of artists who have released music on the label is a veritable 'who's who' of top-level talent spanning a broad musical range, and this, along with a commitment to beautiful design, has earned the label respect in the industry and a cult following among fans. 

“We started out singing into plastic bags and shipping them to stores as quickly as possible. Later, we discovered that vinyl sounds way better when delivered by kayak. I learned so much the first few years…Now, as I look towards the future, I can envision music for poor people, sonic odors for the hearing impaired, even MP3s for women....Vroom, sucka!” says Tiga, the lyrical lampsman lighting the way down Dance Avenue.
