Solid Grooves unveil their 2022 'Ibiza Sampler' as Michael Bibi and PAWSA invite seven of the label's residents and regulars for a huge summer offering.

2022 is shaping up to be a year to remember for Solid Grooves as they celebrate ten years in style with a host of stand-out shows, including OFF Sonar and Kappa Futur, alongside recent appearances at Space Miami, Fabric and Printworks.

However, the crown jewel in the programming undeniably comes via their biggest Ibiza season to date. With a move to renowned institution DC10 backed by lineups stacked full of talent, the collective only adds to things on the label front as they reveal their latest summer compilation. Opening the season in style, the nine-track 'Ibiza Sampler' welcomes the arrival of a stacked V/A with fresh heat from close friends and ever-impressing regulars.

In usual fashion, co-founders Michael Bibi and PAWSA contribute a pair of heavily-requested signature cuts, alongside peak-time and after-hours anthems from residents Dennis Cruz, Eddy M, Reelow, Ramin Rezaie and Bassel Darwish, plus label signees Classmatic and JUST2.

The Parisian duo Ohmme may be pretty fresh on the scene, but the roots of this project stem deep into the heart and soul of the underground. The project is in fact the brainchild of Olivier Giacomotto and David Lecocq, two of the French capitals most impactful names in the local and international music scene. The vision of this collaboration is to give priority to the groove, the funk and the sexiness of their sound, and with releases on Moan, Suruba X and now here at Deeperfect, no one can deny the impact they are making.
Getting things moving with ‘Clap”, we are introduced to the Ohmme Aesthetic; stripped back and hard hitting drum grooves paired with syncopated sub bass and carefully selected percussion sounds. A funky, energetic vocal weaves its way into the groove and is expertly affected to create tense moments of fun and excitement, which quickly suck back the dominant, pushing groove.
Up next is ‘Discount’ which continues on the theme of the EP with chunky low end pressure and sparing but intricate top grooves. Heavily affected vocals are worked into the groove and bring the tension high. The beats are complemented by some creative sampling and expert production to bring the track to the club stomping climax.
The third and final track ‘Nods’ works energetic percussion and crispy drums overtop of a rolling sub bass. Heavy fx swells and pitched vocal builds bring excitement and tension which releases back to the pumping main groove. It is definitely a track to turn the heat up on the dancefloor and get the crowd going wild!

Off Week is finally here! The most important week of the year for Barcelona's electronic music scene has finally arrived and as its now tradition, elrow Music is delivering another installment of our great set of Various Artists releases, celebrating our sound in such important dates for the label's hometown. This 2018 we have several comebacks, some debuts, but all-in-all, a very complete an amazing set of tracks, that are perfect testimony of the great moment elrow Music is living right now, thanks to you, dear crowds!

Opening this compilation we find Vanilla Ice's 'All U Got (Original Mix)', a percussive, serious track built around its great and strong vocal sample, which gives it its character in the dancefloor. After it we have Supernova's delivery, 'Hot Plates (Original Mix)', a sample-heavy track from the Italian duo that many will find familiar, based around percussion and with almost no melodies in the soundscape. Another highlight is Guille Placencia and George Privatti's 'Whiskas (Original Mix)', a track in which La Pera Records bosses encompass elrow Music's character and sound signature to perfection, with that simplicity and straightforward proposal, that builds the track around the hip-hopish vocal loop, giving this track true dancefloor character. We also have DJ Dep this time, with his 'Carry On (Original Mix)', in which he manages to tilt the bullseye with his more playful take, thanks to the wooden percussion, the vocal treatment and - specially the robot-like loop found by the end of the track -. Closing the compilation we have a big highlight of this release, LondonGround's 'Franklin (Original Mix)', a track with a great progression, brass percussion, a very interesting synth melody that goes along the vocal line and an intriguing set of FX, making it the one of the most interesting tracks of the comp.

Another year that passes, another Off Week that we handle with all our love and passion for Barcelona's electronic music scene. Pay us a visit if you're in town!

Founded earlier this year, elrow Limited was created as a sister label to elrow Music in order to explore a rawer, minimal sound with a focus on undiscovered talents and upcoming stars. Their fourth release channels this ethos, bringing attention to upcoming Chilean DJ and producer Nico Ferrada. Teaming up with him is established elrow resident De la Swing, who's been at the core of the label's family since debuting on it back in 2012, not to mention releasing on respected labels like Kaluki and Circus Recordings.

'Together' combines a deep bass groove with soulful chords, twinkling effects and delicate vocals. Next up, 'Fireworks' takes a darker approach with a meandering lead and shuffling percussion, laying the foundation for high pitched zaps and beeps as vocals operate throughout.
