Visual Distortions Radio : 01 : WHITESQUARE

Happy to welcome to the second episode of the show a talented dj and producer and also label friend , Reznik.


BIO:

It was pretty much at the end of the last century when Reznik dragged his record boxes into a night club for the first time. He was living in Leipzig at the time. Leipzig was and is a city with a vibrant and elaborate underground scene for electronic music. Big impact on this guys mindset!
It was in 2009, a couple years after relocating to Berlin, when he teamed up with Adam Port, &ME, Rampa, Monja Gentschow and former member David Mayer and the whole Keinemusik story unfolded. At some point, he took care of the KM labelmanagement for a couple of years.
In 2019 he started a collaborative project with his old companion Good Guy Mikesh with key releases on Keinemusik, Permanent Vacation, Razor-N-Tape or 2MR. He strives for DJ sets that draw on groove and on soul (not necessarily the musical genre, but the spiritual entity) and go wherever they need to go. Be it the route of (Indie)Disco and Synthwave or the New York- and Chicago-informed contemporary House course. Main thing here is that it moves you.

Get ready for Summer as Joluca and Thomas Garcia join forces to deliver their most ambitious project to date. Over two years in the making, “Just a Dream" is a testament to their creative energies, featuring original vocals, guitar, and bass that seamlessly blend into an infectious track that’ll surely be heard on dance floors all season long.
On remix duties, the boys connected with long time favorites Lauer and Felipe Gordon. In his signature style, Lauer injected 80s flavor transforming the vocal-laden original into an Italo-tinged dub with soaring acid lines and snappy snares. From the other side of the globe,
Felipe took the track in a totally different direction, crafting an almost nine minute cosmic adventure with emotive strings and thundering bass.
Completing the package is a VIP mix that strips things back and turns up the bass for a more minimal, DJ-friendly take on the original.
Scheduled for release this July, "Just a Dream" sets the stage for the complete EP, available digitally and on vinyl this Fall.

PREMIERE : Joluca & Thomas Garcia - Just A Dream (Lauer Remix)

Canary Islands' Alex Medina heads up Mumbai Records, and his work goes from deep house to deep techno via well-crafted electronica. He always looks outside the usual rules with his music and has also released on the likes of Innervisions, Diynamic and Laurent Garnier's CODE3 QR label. 

Opener 'Trio Infernale' kicks off the EP, with a slinky bassline and shuffling groove led by a freaky lead synth sound over heavy and dubby low ends. Add the trippy vocal loops, and you have a track to build incredible momentum in any set. 

Up next is 'Un Memento', a writhing, fizzing fusion of synthetic lines, skewed synths and gurgling bass that fires your synapses and makes for an energising experience as the drums roll on. It's texturally rich and perfect for intense dance floor experiences. 

First to remix is Redshape, a legendary mask wearer from Germany with a lo-fi and dusty take on deeply atmospheric techno on labels like Delsin and Running Back. His superb version slows things down, strips them back to the wobbly acid bass and allows the minimal drums to roll into an unknown future full of subtle tension that keeps you locked. 

The revered Hungarian party starters and label heads Secret Factory then add their remix. It's a brighter, loose cut with hopeful melodies and reflective cosmic chords, adding an uplifting style to the original. The ‘Trio Infernale’ EP is another brilliantly left-of-centre release of rich club sounds from Secret Fusion.

After releasing tracks and remixes on Ritmo Fatale, Ombra International, or Days of Being, Agle joins Espacio Cielo with 'Full of Stars EP'. 80s club sounds such as Disco and New Wave inspire his tone. Mixed up with mysterious drum machines, garnished with dusty analogue synths.

At the remixes, Silicodisco and the collaboration between Espacio Cielo heads Moo Moonster & Parissior.

PREMIERE: Agle - It's Full Of Stars (Moo Moonster & Parissior Dark Remix)

A long-time resident at Barcelona’s legendary Razzmatazz and label head of Factor City for two decades, Undo is a Spanish mainstay with countless releases that have garnered support from the likes of Andrew Weatherall, Roman Flugel and Erol Alkan. He teams up with fellow Spaniard and synth-pop wizard Casiowaves to return for their second collaborative release on Melodize after last year's 'Predict The Future' EP.

The straight-forward 'Casiobass' kicks off with fizzing synth lines, chugging dark disco drums, a fat bass and circling pads. 'Overcruiser' is a pumping, Italo-influenced cut with retro-future chords and a clean, cosmic feel, while 'Something Blue' layers up the crispy analogue drums with sonar pulses, deadpan cold wave vocals and majestic leads that bring color and vibrancy.

Drummer-turned electronic producer and live act Nhar, who boasts an impressive discography spanning two decades, makes his debut on the label with a remix of 'Waves to Come' that brings a widescreen serenity and calm to the original through pensive chord work and starry keys twinkling in the distance. The original then closes out with Balearic guitar licks, punchy drums, and rich bass for a fusion of retro sounds with futuristic sentiment. From the driving Casiobass to the Balearic, serene 'Waves to Come,' Undo & Casiowaves have served up offerings for all hours with the versatile 'Casiobass' EP.

Javier Ferreira and Persona RS, the electrifying duo, returns to Duro Label with ‘Shifting Sands’ EP. The sonic masters duo are ready to dazzle once again with their creativity on this work. Following their astounding appearance on the ‘Muy Duro Vol X’ compilation, these skillful producers come together once more on a sonic journey that blends the intricate nuances of trance and techno, creating a unique musical experience.

The record kicks off with a hypnotic awakening through the original version of "Shifting Sands". This track is a whirlwind of energy, a fusion of acidic elements and dreamlike atmospheres. The journey delves into a new dimension with Elfenberg's remix. The virtuoso Swedish producer transforms "Shifting Sands," bringing his distinctive approach to the mix. With its broken drum rhythms, resonating basslines, and acidic melodies, Elfenberg weaves a hypnotic sonic tapestry. The addition of ethereal vocals and celestial pianos creates an astonishing sound palette.

The journey culminates epically with the striking "Trompe." This track is an adventure in itself, with synthesizers weaving hypnotic patterns as rhythms and vocals gradually fade away.

Javier Ferreira and Persona RS's "Shifting Sands" EP will be available on all major streaming platforms starting from September 22, 2023.
