Slam | Reverse Proceed Interpretations Part 2
Gary Beck, Clouds & Jeroen Search Remixes
[SOMA420]

1. Slam – Catacoustics (Gary Beck Remix)
2. Slam - Resolved (Clouds Remix)
3. Slam – Cirklon Bells (Jeroen Search Remix)

The second installment of re Interpretations form Slam’s latest, critically acclaimed album Reverse Proceed sees Soma look to yet more highly regarded Techno artists to provide their reimagining’s of their favourite tracks from Reverse Proceed. Long time Soma collaborator Gary Beck makes a welcome return to the label alongside fellow Scottish upstarts Clouds and finally Dutch Techno wizard, Jeroen Search. Each brings their inimitable style to the project.

Gary Beck steps up first with his take on Catacoustics. His fiery brand of looped out Techno take the already tough Catacoustics into another realm. Gary comes out, all guns blazing using the original hook to great effect as it trips out over his ferocious kicks, thundering percussion and powerful dance floor groove.

Not shy of a fierce remix, the Clouds twosome give Resolved a thorough going over. One of the more ambient tracks from Reverse Proceed, the beatless, breathtaking original is well and truly given a proper workout by the young Scottish producers. Filtered, shaking percussion leads us into the analogue warmth of the Resolved pads. This light start rapidly gives way to a full on assault of rhythmic destruction as Clouds turn in a serious weapons grade Techno track. 

The influential figure of Jeroen Search closes off this EP in fine form with his version of Cirklon Bells. Widely regarded as a true innovator in Techno, Jeroen shows off his skills with this remix as he powers in with a straight out 909 workout infused with hypnotic synth hooks. Given the live treatment, Jeroen is able to keep things exciting with the remix and easily pulls out a highly addictive remix.

Deep'a & Biri - Echoic Memories

A1. Echoic Memories 
A2. 1406 Days 
B1. 3 Forms Of Sadness 
B2. Ritual 

For the 2nd release in their 30th year aniversary trilogy Transmat presents one of the most promising talents emerging from the electronic scene from Tel Aviv. 
Deep‘a & Biri try to fully introduce their sound from atmospheric hypnotic beats to banging acid dancefloor killers.
Deep‘a & Biri‘s connection with Derrick May started 7 years ago, when Deep‘a worked as an A&R for Club Barzilay, one of the important underground clubs in Israel at that time. 
They invited May to play in Tel Aviv and gave him a demo track at the dinner before the party, which was played by May only a few hours later at the club. Since then May keeps supporting Deep'a & Biri‘s project by frequently playing their music on his sets. On 2014 the boys, who grew up listening to early Detroit Techno music, manage to close the circuit and joined Transmat artists agency and played on their label nights around the world. 

The tracks on the EP has being slowly cooked for the past 3 years and been tested on multiple dancefloors and soundsystems. On their 4-track EP Echoic Memories Deep‘a & Biri try to to fully introduce their sound from atmospheric hypnotic beats to banging acid dancefloor killers. The tracks stand out with their dark and mashing beats, that make their way without compromise and with never ending dynamism through the dubby sound spaces or relentlessly push forward sharp acid lines. 
From these perspectives, the tracks‘ bass lines and also to some extent, the implemented superposed, endless synthesizer landscapes, both remind us of the early years of the Detroit Techno.

New mini-album 'Night Melody' out August 5th

More info: www.rivalconsoles.net

London-based electronic songwriter Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles to release his most personal work to date in the form of a mini-album titled ‘Night Melody’ through Erased Tapes on 5th August 2016.

During the release of his acclaimed full-length album ‘Howl’ and heavy touring in late 2015, Ryan came out of a long relationship and found himself making music throughout the winter months. The result of his efforts is a 34-minute, 6-track mini album ‘Night Melody’, born out of and shaped by long hours working into the night. It’s nocturnal in sound; mysterious in the way that the early hours so often are.

“I found myself, in a silent home, with the days getting dark very early. I’ve never before in my life been affected by the lack of light so much. I just remember it always being night time. I would either make music into the night, go out drinking with friends, or go to parties and dance into the early hours, every day, week after week, month after month, until eventually the days became brighter again.”

The opening statement ‘Pattern of the North’ starts off with a collage of spliced synth melodies, inspired by anxiety that accompanies going home for Christmas. It’s followed by ‘Johannesburg’, an early sketch gradually filled out during his tour in South Africa. 

“After playing it around some of the cities, I got a lot of inspiration to bring it to life and push it into something that really moves me. I think this is one of my most colourful pieces of music, with its driving rhythm and almost a homage to Terry Riley’s ‘In C’ towards the end, with a build of very simple, hypnotic parts. I especially love that for over five minutes the piece is tied to just one note. This makes the ending very dramatic, because all of a sudden there is this harmonic change.”

‘Lone’ started life around the time Ryan was working on his ‘Sonne’ EP in 2014. It’s the result of constant adjustments to find the perfect balance of fragility and assurance. As everything on the album, it’s a carefully considered, emotionally mature piece. “I think, as I get older, I need music to represent something and not just sound interesting, though of course the two are connected.”

The closing statement ‘What Sorrow’ is a fitting end to the album, building from gentle melancholia to a joyous crescendo. It’s a sensibility that’s central to the record; joy and sorrow both find their counterpoints.

“This record is very personal to me and I hope it offers something for other people, as it helped me to make it and to listen to it. Almost every synth line was recorded intuitively, without perfection but with a lot of intention and expression. I’m not interested in making something sad or making something happy. I want music to be bittersweet, to be more complex, like life – containing moments of vibrant colour and hope, as much as darkness and sadness.”

This summer will see Ryan follow on from his recent North American Tour with the appearance at many festivals including Lovebox, Secret Garden Party, La Route Du Rock, Sea Change and Tale of Us-curated Afterlife party at Space, Ibiza. ‘Night Melody’ will be available on 12” vinyl and digitally, August 5th.

Celebrating a landmark achievement of reaching 100 releases, Sudbeat pull out all of the stops with a star studded release, featuring many of the labels favourites in one smile inducing swoop and introducing a new graphic restyling that mark a new era for the label!

Not much needs to be said about Guy J, who is the perfect choice to proclaim this Centenarian landmark.

'Algorithm' is a stunning musical workout, a lesson in how to create tension, with its subtleties being its crowning glory. The pulsating rhythms create a mystique, matched only by its beautifully layered and carefully crafted harmonious tones and tripped out effects. Understated sounds cascade, creating a powerful soundscape that packs a mighty punch, that all adds wondrously to this magical musical meting pot.

The first remix steps up label heads Hernan Cattaneo and Graziano Raffa, who of course are the ideal candidates to try represent the label sound. Their fine rework utilises the original elements superbly, whilst also adding further drama and energy with its sweeping pads, beautiful chords and dubby overtones. A pacey affair ensues as things intensify elegantly, drawing you in to its striking climatic breakdown. Layer upon layer seem to collectively erupt as we peak to a crowd frenzying occasion thats sure to raise the roof.

If you hadn't been spoiled enough, then the Spanish emperor Henry Saiz is up next, bringing all his usual class to close this package beautifully. Henry's hallmark epic sound is represented in full effect here, as a dramatic and invigorating workout ensues. Locking you in to its groove and then swamping you with a profound lead synth, reminiscent of film scores and conjuring up sci-fi images delivers the powerhouse to be reckoned with. This tale unfurls further as the vivid breakdown delivers another turn its saga.

Mountain (Mountain Top Skank Mix) by Professor Skank

The capital was awash with beautiful people. They danced elegantly under the pale glow of the moon as the framework of great buildings loomed spectacularly overhead. In the distance the cries of the new year could be heard echoing through the park and she gazed out towards the exotic sprawl before her. The balcony was getting cold as the light continued to fade, but she feared little for the chill. She was warm at home now. 

Pont Neuf is a French record label operating out of the capital. They are set to release a new EP from Tour-Maurbourg in the coming weeks.

Cybersound 
UK
1992

Beginning as an Electronic Rock group not dissimilar to Zodiac Mindwarp And The Love Reaction DFA were critically acclaimed by music press and fans alike, however after three years the band had burnt itself out, this prompted Steve Dixon to take a trip around the world where he was exposed to Acid and House music.

Circa 1992 he and Brian Dixon begin making music again, though without vocals and guitars; the resulting mix of Acid, Dance and Techno was soon picked up by Peaceville's Hammy and he signed the band to his Dreamtime label. 

At this point original DFA guitarist Paul rejoined, and vocalist Hayley Windsor was recruited. In 1997 the band recorded their last album for Dreamtime; Om - 23.

Brian Moss and Hayley Windsor currently perform with Mirazma, Steve Dixon passed away in 2007.

Drug Free America - Cyberspace (Paul Kalkbrenner Version)

Bufi breaks into Sincopat in a state of grace. The Mexican talent also known as Mateo González released his second album some weeks ago and now he arrives plenty of energy and creativity. His music is the result of a wide spectrum of influences, ranging from early Chicago acid house or Detroit techno, to nu-disco. Today Bufi presents his most carefully treated and detailed House Music into four mystical and brilliant tracks.

For this Remixed EP, we count on maestro Dave Dk who offers a hypnotic super classy re-treatment of ‘El House es tu idioma’. Tel-Aviv man Audio Junkies comes back home to Sincopat with an epic Siempre remix. Newcomer and Mexican talent TYU gives his best with an amazing version of Slowfall, and the own Bufi wanted to be present with a different and indie remix of this eclectic track.
