New music coming up on VANDIT this April!

VANDIT April 2016


OUT APRIL 1st

215 YEARS OF VANDIT RECORDS - VOLUME 2

It’s April and VANDIT are kicking spring up into high gear with a megawatt package of ‘remix-re-visitations’, all drawn from the Berliner’s estimable discography! 

Continuing their decade-and-a-half milestone celebrations, on offer you’ll find music from (amongst others) Giuseppe Ottaviani, Lange & Gareth Emery and Alex M.O.R.P.H. They have been heartily reworked by some of the label’s next-gen studio-heads, Paul Thomas & Chris Bekker, Dan Stone and Alan Banks included. 

The result: ‘15 Years Of VANDIT Records Volume 2’, and this… is something you don’t want to be without! 

Extravagance SL (they of ‘Cthulhu’ and ‘Kurai’ fame) are first-up, delivering a chiming, high-on-life elevation to Giuseppe Ottaviani’s ‘Linking People’. On a different tip, you’ll also find Seattle’s Magnus reshaping Reverse’s 2009 ‘Distant Destiny’ outing, retuning it to something more Psy-trance in frequency.

Paul Thomas & Chris Bekker have been busy again, this time on the boundary-breaking Lange & Gareth Emery team-up, ‘Another You, Another Me’. Their interpretation has already drawn significant props from DJs and the music press alike. Giving it 9/10 and their Single of the Month award, DJ Mag said the duo’s mix “delivers a trance-level-high rarely equalled!”
‘Sunset Boulevard’ - Alex M.O.R.P.H. & Ana Criado’s vocal hypnotizer has also bagged itself a righteously fine (and dizzyingly uplifting!) Dan Stone remix! Alan Banks (just last month named as one of Billboard’s 2016 trance names to watch) meanwhile has done some comparably fine work on Second Sun’s ‘Empire’ too. The young Englishman leverages riff tension against spinning melodies, whilst packing an extra punch with his three-dimensional production.
Comeback Kid Scott & hotshot newcomer Charlie Walker collaborate on another in their of-late celebrated REBOOTED remixes too. This time they have Jose Amnesia’s immortal ‘The Eternal’s clean between their studio crosshairs, giving it a floor-shifting ‘primetime’ revision. Last and by no means least in this epic-in-every-way package is Vince Aoun, who’s reworked the progressive/trance compression of Kuffdam & Plant’s ‘Dream Makers’ into something tougher and more club-hardy. 

A track (or five) for trance lovers of all persuasions - ’15 Years of VANDIT Records - Volume 2’ is available from today from all good download stores.

01: Giuseppe Ottaviani – Linking People (Extravagance SL Remix)
02. Reverse - Distant Destiny (Magnus Remix)

Releases

Our favorite FSOE Swede is at it again. Bjorn Akesson is the master of uplifting, and his 'Paper Dreams' explains why. Completely soaked in streams of energy and cascading melodies, this tune offers the chance to go crazy in old fashion, jumping, cheering, and fist-pumping 'til your legs can't carry you anymore. We reckon you should take said chance.

Bjorn Akesson - Paper Dreams

David Forbes - Riptide
Release October 19th

A man never short of a dramatic title or two, after last month’s  ‘Collider’, here’s David Forbes with another zero-nonsense floor-connector in the form of ‘Riptide! 

With it’s tornado-class tempo, rivet-tough drums & percussion lines, and bleepily engaging sub-riff, ‘Riptide’ touches down on the floor with intent! 

At its midpoint David opens the track up Grand Canyon wide, serving it with a harmonically pad & chord soaked drop, which break-side feeds off into radiant synth shafts and crowd inflaming shouts. 

Cocked, locked and more than ready to rock, he re-engages the drums, lowers the LFO and pushes it on to critical mass! A sure-fire post-summer blues-beater, ‘Riptide’ drops large on Oct 19th


David Forbes - Riptide

Alex Kraig - Power Station 
Release on 09.11.2015 

Likely a new name to many, Canada’s Alex Kraig signs in with a nothing-less-than-extraordinary debut for VANDIT. 

Up top, ‘Power Station’ is sonic styled from classic progressive house/trance sounds & techniques. Warm, halcyon synths, evocating bleeps, slo-mo breaks and incredible key changes instil the track with a thrilling atmosphere.

Down below though, the prog mould gets smashed! Sasha on steroids, Digweed with deltoids, the Canadian wunderkind’s production rumbles and then rocks with all that titular ‘Power’! 
Take DJ Mag’s advice and: “whatever you do this month, don’t miss out on this”!

Ace Ventura @ Dreamstate Day 1

PTP002. Brenden LaBonte aka Forerunners is a guy who produces lush, majestic & addictive progressive trance music. His back catalogue is gem after gem. All killer – no filler. He totally gets the concept of the ‘slow build’ & how to take the listener on a journey. This release consists firstly of ‘Lost in Translation (Extended Mix) – the full length version of his standout track featured on Solarstone’s Pure Trance Vol. 4, and also the mesmerizing ‘Strange Days’. Brenden’s production hinges on hypnotizing rhythms and precisely modulated synth patterns & he is clearly one of the best in the business at this. Play loud & understand why.

Dutchman Robert Nickson reserves his RNX alias for his lower bpm productions; such as the 126bpm Original Mix of the Pure Trance 4 gleaned Colorado, which kicks off this package. Firstly it’s a beautifully spacious, melodically intricate piece of lush pure trance music. The main synth hook is wonderful as expected from a producer of Nickson’s calibre, but musicologists will also love the great middle bit (not a technical term!) where the track takes a diversion into deeper territory. This is something quite unusual in a trance record these days perhaps. For his Pure Trance 4 version, Solarstone reconstructed the track into something more befitting his DJ sets, raising the tempo to 136bpm, recreating the rhythm and bass tracks and reprogramming the focus of the arrangement on the main hook. Pure class.

Remember the days when millions of dance music lovers united peacefully in Berlin for the legendary Loveparade? When day turned into night and we celebrated love, peace and unity while dancing around the golden Victory Column to DJs like Paul van Dyk? Chris Bekker's 'Goldelse' is named after this landmark, kissed by a ray of trance nostalgia and yet another eye and ear opening experience leading up to his album 'Berlinition.

Hand-picked as one of Rolling Stone’s top 25 best bands on MySpace, Shannon Hurley released her debut album "Ready to Wake Up" in 2007.

Seven Lions - Summer Of The Occult

www.facebook.com/hommagemusik

Off the back of a whirlwind 2015 including the launch of their new label ‘Hommage’, Monkey Safari gear up to take the dance scene by storm with the release of their new EP ‘On’. The self-entitled release showcases the German act’s mixture of hip-hop and new wave influences embedded in 9-10 minute climactic and euphoric footprints that have so often epitomized the acts sound throughout their short career. Remixes by legendary techno producer ‘Paco Osuna’ and ‘Chloé’ have done no harm in aiding the producers growing stature on the global stage whilst helping their break into new scenes and demographics not yet familiar with their uplifting and melodic sound.

The EP containing two original tracks ‘On’ and ‘Matters’ utters influences taken from the act at a young and formative age. Sven and Lars unique connection was established as teens in their hometown of ‘Halle’ where the duo’s paradox of tastes complimented one another’s and has come to define the nature of their productions. Agreeing to start a youth fueled club night that exhibited the duo’s love for indie/alternative and electronica in two separate rooms, the venture became the catalyst for the pair’s amalgamation in song-writing and thus, Monkey Safari was born. A track that mirrors these tastes exceptionally is the single ‘On’, a perfect blend of steady paced house with alternate influenced vocals creating a brooding and haunting piece of music. The duos cleverly crafted layering of the track gives the vocals enough room to breathe whilst keeping the dance-fueled tempo with airy and spacious percussion. The second track ‘Matters’ focuses more on techno and trance-like elements with delayed and static analogue sounds coating the duo’s stereotypical atmospheric and surging psalm. The track is much more in-tune with the acts dance influences with no inclusion of any vocals, dedicating all attention to the core ingredients of percussion, bass and keys.

The duo’s rapid growth in recognition is best shown through Paco Osuna’s monstrous remix of ‘On’ with a typical elongated build, euphoric drop and crunching percussion that will be certain to be a stand out track on dance floors around the globe. Underground French artist Chloé’s remix of ‘Matters’ is reminiscent of the duo’s new wave motives with a perfect collage of echoed guitar samples and a grooved bass lick epitomizing the French house sound. Both remixes are equally as talented and enjoyable as the originals and will no doubt help flourish the acts credibility and respect going in to 2016.

02 Reverse - Distant Destiny (Magnus Remix) - Teaser

Get ready for an explosive debut on VANDIT for Berlin born and bread Enoh. For many of you it will be a first hand introduction for Enoh, but he has been a prominent fixture in Berlin’s clubbing scene for years. His path from being a DJ into a producer is one that was unavoidable having bashed heads with the likes of Activa, Akesson, Cressida, Gary Maguire, Kyau & Albert, Michael C, Reaves & Ahorn, Sonorous, Stoneface & Terminal, Store N Forward, Tom Colontonio. He was part promoter for an event in his home city ‘Transition’ for which he got to play along side such electronic talents listed above. It is production where Enoh is looking to carve out his reputation as a producer and with so many inspiring influences to take refuse from his debut delivery is nothing short of emphatic! ‘Boulder’ is a pounding piece of aggressive edged trance that’s going to tear apart even the most study of sound systems. Injected around a tough and ruff bass line that’s packed with more testosterone than a world strongman is a finely crafted melody builds up into an intensely deep, rich and thumping production that’s going to make a huge impact. It’s very clear that his years of perfecting the art of a DJ and mixing it with fellow trance heavyweights behind the decks have injected that talented production spark into Enoh. It will soon be clear to you to after a dosage of this essential audio. His debut right here on VANDIT is one not to be missed!

VANDIT Records is an international, independent record label with its artists and their musical visions in the spotlight.

NO ART WITHOUT ARTISTS – this simple sounding manifest is basic principle at VANDIT. Established in Berlin in 1999, the label quickly captured attention not just within the capital city borders but worldwide. With a huge impact on the scene, it grew to one of the most important international labels with huge loyal fan base, label parties and own radio show.
In 2010, two of the most prestigious labels in dance music — Paul van Dyk’s legendary VANDIT imprint and Dutch record company Armada Music — announced a new joint venture. With a burgeoning release schedule for 2010 and 2011 already in place, the Berlin‐based VANDIT team will remain responsible for the label’s A&R and artist development as both entities prepare to take the imprint into the next decade.
