YOU'RE MOVIN' TO THE FAR SIDE OF LOVE

LATELY YOU'VE GOT ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS I HAVEN'T ASKED
DETAILS SO CLEAR - THEY MUST BE SHADY
YOU'VE BEEN SNAPPIN' AT THE HAND OF THE WOMAN WHO'S LOVIN' YOU
          ACTIN' SUSPICIOUSLY
          LOOKIN' ALL WRONG TO ME
          LIKE YOU'RE IN ANOTHER GALAXY -

                    YOU'RE MOVIN' TO THE FAR SIDE OF LOVE
                    THE FARTHER YOU GO, THE CLOSER I'M WATCHIN'  YA
                    YOUR DIRECTION NEEDS A COURSE CORRECTION
                    YOU'RE RISKIN' A FALL--
                    MOVIN' TO THE FAR SIDE OF LOVE.                  
                   
TALKIN' FACE TO FACE DON'T MEAN SEEIN' EYE TO EYE
BUT MAYBE WE CAN TALK IT OUT
I'VE BEEN THROWIN' YOU A ROPE - HOPIN' TO PULL YOU IN
                    THE FRICTION'S BURNIN'
                    CAUSE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN LEARNIN'
                    THERE REALLY IS A POINT OF NO RETURNIN' - 

                    YOU'RE MOVIN' TO THE FAR SIDE OF LOVE
                    THE FARTHER YOU GO, THE CLOSER I'M WATCHIN'  YA
                    YOUR DIRECTION NEEDS A COURSE CORRECTION
                    YOU'RE RISKIN' A FALL--
                    MOVIN' TO THE FAR SIDE OF LOVE.

The Far Side Of Love

You're movin to the Far Side of Love

BOOM! 
Great day for bringing back those uplifting trance moves! Enjoy!

"Judo" - up to you what this could mean to you. To me it's a track about the good of our planet fighting the crazy shit-show that is happening around us. Good, honest people fighting war, evil and corruption. Green, pristine, clean nature fighting fires, drought and corporate greed. Our vast blue, refreshing and lifegiving water fighting shifting currents, climate and human garbage.

Check in on my Spotify profile to find the Extended Mix (worth a listen in my opinion!) - take care!

For over a year now, Denni Kindred, a.k.a. Longstocking, has been captaining the ship that is Feral One Records.

From the beginning her philosophy has been clear: pour into every release the unbridled love she feels for her hometown of Seattle while creating space for PNW artists to produce music that honors their own personal connection to the region (and to the dancefloor).

Now Longstocking is back with another release of her own on Feral One. A release that is the most extensive and diverse in the history of the label: her new album, Creating Space.

Seattle is Kindred’s space.

The musical contributions of Seattle and the PNW span all different genres and time periods, and the 16 tracks on Creating Space represent the diversity in sound and persona found within that space. It’s as much an alternative album as it is a dance album.

Kicking things off is “Good Stuff” (the title of which gives an unambiguous hint as to what is coming from the track and the rest of the LP). This track is just pure joy. There is a playful use of samples that plays like a child throwing different colored paints at the wall and ending up with a Jackson Pollack. Simultaneously, different string patterns, from arpeggios to chordal pads, provide a sense of acoustic groundedness, like that same child knew exactly what they were doing from the start.

“A Little Too Much” is another indicative title, communicating the degree of Kindred’s love of Seattle. The combination of rhythmic dulcimer strings and warm, inviting vocals is like the sonic version of a charter boat coasting on Puget Sound at sunset. The kick drum is just a reminder that after the boat docks, everyone is heading to the club.

But remember, this album is not just for the club. And past the halfway mark, “Bombom” comes in to combine hip-hop, breaks, and IDM into one delectable, heady whole. Where does each of these manifest? Hip-hop comes through in even more airtight sampling. Breaks are found in erratic drum patterns. And the synth passages are so gruesome, there is no other genre classification that remotely makes sense besides IDM.

The alternative side of the album reaches its zenith at “Office Window” when Kindred abandons all sense of dance music. But one thing she doesn’t abandon even slightly is a sense of groove. The drum kit glides along a swing beat that Coltrane would be happy to riff over, but instead of bebop tenor saxophone, it’s sound design that is equal parts precise and minimalistic.

To close is another curveball in the form of “Green & Me.” Given the context of this album, it should be clear that “Green” represents the lush, arboraceous environment of Seattle (as well as another plant that is as aromatic as it is combustible), and “Me” is Kindred, who so candidly shares over a serene lo-fi hip-hop beat that there’s no other place that she could ever be.

Encanto is set to release his latest EP, Fita, on June 28th.

The EP features two tracks that dive deep into electronic sounds, infused with hypnotic and sentimental elements in electro baile funk foundations. The percussion is rich with references to brazilian funk and tribal beats, creating a soundscape that's both nostalgic and contemporary. The sound construction leans into a more delirious approach, building a dense atmosphere through retro synths reminiscent of 80s disco vibes. Encanto also incorporates deep house influences, crafting velvety atmospheres.

PREMIERE: Encanto - Se Pá

V3GARD is an EDM project of mine. I'm a big enthusiast of electronic, dance, trance, both uplifting and "downlifting" (is that even a word..) moods and heavy melodic angles. I try to hit a nostalgic nerve with the 90's and 00's being a central inspirational part of my work and mindset. Melodic strolls, nostalgia, and anything that makes the heart pump and head bump!

I grew up with learning music through the demoscene and modules/tracking from 1997 onwards with Fast Tracker 2, then later ModPlug Tracker, before moving to Renoise - which is the DAW I still use this day. Different projects over the years before starting to focus on heavier EDM in 2021 under the V3GARD name.

I'm a big fan of electronic music in general, and leaning more into instrumental music than vocal to be honest. Creating interesting and catchy music without vocals is more impressive to me. But I must admit, prog trance with a beautiful, haunting vocal is also amazing! 
I'm inspired by anything that is catchy, be it a melody, part of a hook, a bassline, or even just some percussions, or a brilliant reverb on a snare -- anything that can possibly grab attention.

Artists who definitely have inspired and motivated through the years:
Tiësto (pre-2015 mostly), Ferry Corsten (+Gouryella), Armin van Buuren, Deadmau5, Röyksopp, Infected Mushroom, Pendulum, Jonas Steur, Chicane, Calvin Harris, Rank1, Moonbeam, Todd Terje, Martin Garrix, Mauro Picotto, Shingo Nakamura, Talla 2XLC, Joonas Hahmo .. among several other brilliant artists.
