The first vinyl release from my collab with Ortin Cam incl. remixes by Greencross, Petter B and A.Paul on NB Records

Stanny Franssen & Ortin Cam - It Use To Be

Stanny Franssen teams up with Ortin Cam for a wild roller-coaster ride and the boys show their intentions right off the bat with The Duck, where off-kilter percussion is joined by warped electronics and psychotic phrases, only to be topped off by crushed audio. Things are a bit more straightforward on Skint, which is based on what initially seems like regular chords. Then, of course, the affair takes a tricky turn into la-la land, but luckily the steamrolling rhythm section holds everything together with ease.

“The only escape from the miseries of life is music” - Albert Einstein
Soulfooled, lovingly curated since its inception in 2010 by the outstanding German producer & DJ, Alex Niggemann, has steadily established itself as a crucial platform for fresh talent. The label’s focus is always on sonic innovation and search- ing out unfailingly original musical gems, and, in the process, developing its own distinctive brand of music.
Alex Niggemann’s impressive A&R skills were once again highlighted when Dresden’s enigmatic Felkon, released his excellent, mind-bending debut track (“Creixell”) on last sum- mer’s “Soulfooled Cribs Vol.2 EP” (the second instalment of the exciting format that brings the ever-evolving Soulfooled family together). The resulting furore has now led to Felkon returning with a trio of absolutely stunning creations for his “Cry Wolf” EP.
The pulsating, infectiously percussive “Cry Wolf” opens pro- ceedings, layered with super-seductive ebbing and  owing melodic waves, and building towards a plateau of beauti- fully subtle, scarily spooky energy. Meanwhile, the equally engrossing “Eos” has its own distinct identity, pirouetting majestically around another masterclass of subtle, melodic, rhythmic beauty.
“Selene” expands the theme of melody within rhythm even further, with its gorgeous, heart-melting motifs. A wonderful hint of melancholic re ection, serves to create an atmosphere for the track that renders it in one’s subconscious way after its  nal notes have faded from the speakers.
As a teenager Felkon got his  rst experience of being on stage with “Die Pilger”, a fun punk band from his hometown of Dresden, Germany. After the band broke up in 2010, he took his  rst steps into the world of producing electronic music, a process that has evolved to now also playing live sets and DJ sets throughout Europe. Having previously released the “Sunset Stories EP” (Blossom Kollektiv) and the aforementioned “Creixell” (Soulfooled), his new “Cry Wolf” will surely mark Felkon out as major new talent to watch
out for throughout 2016 and beyond, proving what a great discovery he is.
With an ever-growing family of superb artists in their “crib” and stunning releases like this on the agenda, Soulfooled continues to grow into one of the  nest labels around.

@harvardbass drops a double dose on Twin Turbo with LOSE MY MIND.

Mexican-American bad-boy Victor ‘Harvard’ Bass has always brought together the raw appeal of American booty with the style and function of European Ass. His sound has earned him in-crew-sion in Seth’s Tuskegee / Big Titty Surprise posse, Green Velvet’s Relief, and of course Tiga's Turbo. With years of releases under his belt, he’s maintained an impressively consistent voice.

It all comes down to the fact that he is a bonafide sex addict who managed to turn a problem into a career by combining his obsession with thickness and his prowess for production. ‘Lose My Mind’ can be heard as Harvard Bass’ confession, his plea of insanity set to the sound of a perfectly functioning Ibiza super-club, complete with sexy paid dancers, industrial smoke cannons, and the kind of mass communal ego death that comes from 10+ straight hours of tech-house.

'Sky High' rushes into the main room with racing hats and a ghetto-ready bass line that builds ‘Cajually' alongside the repeating vocal hook ‘Baby gonna see me fly… tonight.’ When else we gonna see you, fly, man?
 
These two bombs come ahead of Harvard Bass launching his own Bump City Records, and the upcoming release of fresh collabs with Martin Buttrich and Shaded. Boom-time, ladies and gentlemen.

Harvard Bass - Sky High

Two techno heavyweights have teamed up here for a new EP on Trapez. So we can look forward to some classy classic techno!

Stanny Franssen has written history and is mentioned often enough in the same breath with Marco Bailey, Gaetano Parisio, Danilo Vigorito and Samuel L Session whereas Ortin Cam has released successfully alongside Stanny and alone on some of the same labels in the past. 

Their EP can be describe as a post Detroit styled 3 track Ep.
"Return Of The Sun" is a moody track very uplifting and with a very gentle flow however powerfully reordered and crafted it can put more than a smile on your face. Indeed it is a strong mover timeless and perfect for the first sunny spells.

"Galaxy Crusadors" is based on a classic "Basic Channel chord" but then evolves and blends with sounds being added that contribute a playfulness and later on a strong Detroit feeling. We can see this strong cross over to please a lot of free minded techno people!

"3rd Moon From Jupiter" rounds up the EP. It is a hypnotic track with a slow build up that undergoes a transformation later in the course of the track with more percussive elements being inserted, making it even more attractive for the dancer. 


Release date Beatport: 11 April 2016
Release date iTunes/Finetunes: 22 April 2016

Stanny Franssen & Ortin Cam - Return Of The Sun

OUT NOW: bit.ly/1rq7NcP

Brussels-based duo return to Turbo backed by remixes from Warp legends The Black Dog.
 
Following on a massive year that saw them provide debut releases on new labels Valence and Exit Strategy, feature on Innervisions ‘Secret Weapons’ series, and remix electronic music pioneers The Black Dog and Black Devil Disco Club, it’s no wonder that the UK’s DJ Mag would pick them as ‘Ones To Watch In 2016’.  Fresh off a January release on Get Physical, @GoldFFinch’s Yoann and Giles turn in the aptly titled ‘Proliferation’ EP.
 
Highlighting the essence of their influences in jacking Chicago house, trippy Detroit techno, with a little bit of Sheffield bleep thrown in for good measure, ‘Proliferation’ is a versatile, understated club weapon, expertly building and releasing tension, raising energy levels without resorting to obvious rises or superfluous production tricks. ‘Shape’ adds the claps-on-kicks jack without losing the hypnotic vibe. ‘For Future Use’ nods to the chosen remixers, with synth lines that recall old-school Warp electronics.

The Black Dog bite back with two remixes,  v.1 harder edged, with more stern techno edges while v.2 rounds things out with a housier sound and an epic, end-of-the-night feeling.
