Etbonz (aka Elliott Thomas) returns to @bed_of_roses-1 - this time with Energizer Gaze - a six-song EP beaming in from the furthest reaches of the astral plane.
Featuring a gargantuan remix from sonic titan Steve Moore, as well as remixes from Portland underground greats Grizz Thomas and Old World. The dreams are tangerine, ramping into a shimmering ecstatic current, summoning a pulsar of shredded tension - emitting a righteous blaze.

In the mid 90s in a small granny flat in a then rural Wicklow village a teenage producer kept himself busy making cassette tapes full of beats on his trusty s3000 sampler and an early wooden cased PC running Cubase v1. A world of music later comes this 8 track release for t-woc's home county label Remotetown. Consisting of live set extracts, MPC workouts and straight from desk to tape jams this collection of tracks are a connection to those days of constant experimentation with limited gear and endless imagination playing out like the flailing limbs seen through a strobe at a slow motion rave.

Tracklist:

1. Volga
2. Bum Nuites
3. Limbs
4. Batabata
5. Sherman Heft
6. Grooveyting
7. Titos Mask
8. Verbal Dice

Hi and Welcome to Italo Moderni Mixes.

Starting the week with David Lost @davidlost with a special Valencia Sound mix for all Bakalao fans. In this case David selected rare tracks from this era and you can listen to a lot of side B from Megabeat and other producers from Valencia.
David is a key part of a scene formed in Barcelona in which it is difficult to identify his style, but it can be identified in which mixes dedicated to the Dark Wave, Post-punk and icy and industrial sounds abound. The mixing and selection capacity is of a high level, which is why it should be in the Italo Moderni Series. Time to welcome our friend David.

IM MIX 85: David Lost

‘We Hold On’ is an impeccable, modern love song with ethereal, uplifting vocals from Johanna Marín Carvajal. The message, which is very relevant for current times, is that with togetherness and honesty, we become more.

With signature lush orchestral strings, driving percussion, deep bass lines and haunting synths. Moulou's 2nd release on West Beach Records.

The release package for ‘We Hold On’ also includes Spanish language versions of the Extended Mix and Edit respecting Johanna’s Colombian roots, where she is also now based full time. These unique Español versions also reflect the size and influence of the progressive and organic house music scenes across Latin America, and are sure to be fully appreciated by the discerning audiences there.

A re-edit I'd done of my original remix 'Don't Talk' for Pete Bones & The Stones Of Convention - Hyena HopscotchRemix LP.
Original Matt Gunn Remix - https://petebones.bandcamp.com/track/dont-talk-matt-gunn-remix

Altered Bones

Where to start? The year is 1990. The locale is Italy. The European techno-trance wave is in full swing, built on the foundations of New Beat, with Frankfurt, Valencia, Goa and the Italian riviera as hotspots for this new sound created by blue-eyed producers in the four corners of the Old World.

A few producers linked to the wonderful & influential label DFC release music under the name ATAHUALPA. The influences are Latin, and Inca to be more precise. After all, Atahualpa was the last Inca emperor, executed by the Conquistadors. Weird flex ragazzi, but OK. 

Anyways, I have always loved this tune. It's got everything I love. Early trance arpeggios which are a reminder of the link between Hi-NRG, EBM, New Beat and the T word. Cheeky pan-pipe melodies. Breakbeat loops. Spanish vocals. Early 90s cultural naivety. And a lead keyboard sound that feels like a harpsichord. I fucking love harpsichords.

I love playing this tune when it's the least expected. It sounds even better given the slow treatment. So I sure hope you will vibe with it as much as I do.

100 downloads, then it's gone!

Atahualpa - Ultimo Imperio (Ed Isar 100 BPM edit)

Franz Scala’s sets are as diverse as the music he curates as label head of Slow Motion. Weaving smoothly between Italian Dance, Psychedelic Disco and Proto House, Franz quickly turns the dance floor into a vignette-tainted retro nostalgia rave fuelled only by his music.

Born in Italy and now a resident of Berlin for a decade Franz has his roots in noise and sonic rock but was led by the record collectors passion into acquiring a taste for modern and not so modern dance floor music. He frequently inspires dancers in clubs all over Europe with his eclectic blend of spacey House, New Wave, Italo and Acid speckled with hints of Electro and Chicago House.

Franz also promotes many events around the german capital such as the monthly Wrong Era, Italian Dance Wave to Bar Noir parties, Magic Waves or New Dance Fantasy Festival beside long time collaboration with Sameheads, he is regular at Griessmuhle and Salon zur Wilden Renate.

Away from the decks Franz has been busy in the studio releasing tracks on cult labels such as World Unknown, Bordello a Parigi, Bahnsteig 23, Tusk Wax, Mechatronica or Discodromo’s Cocktail d’Amore Music. In 2013 he joined Dimitri SoEmotional in the “Studio Luce” project.

Happy that we are joining forces with Russian electronic music scene veteran Sickdisco on the new release. Boss of long time running Fox Trax records joins our roster with 3 original tracks fueled with broken beats, acid lines and psychedelic sequences.

Moreover we are excited to welcome one of our favorite producers recently, Eluize, for the remix of ‘Space Time Distortion’ where she creates no less that you would expect — deep spacious groovy trip with intense atmosphere.

One more remix is coming from label’s own Uninc & Kolomensky who transform ‘Aliens Eating People’ into electro-EBM-rave mixture.

PREMIERE⚡️Sickdisco - Space Time Distortion [ИДА]

When it came to making big decisions, he always sat on the fence. He preferred to play it safe and not upset the apple cart, but sometimes that backfired. Those around him urged him to take risks, to occasionally listen to the devil on his shoulder but politeness always reared its head. 

In September, Inside Out Records welcomed Hivern Discs alumni Steve Pepe to the family for his off kilter LP Vivere in Diagonale. As a follow up to the release the label has enlisted a host of producers to put their own spin on several of the tracks off the release, bringing their own unique textures and flavours to the table. Reinterpretations come via label mates Stevie R and Parisinos, Salon des Amateurs mainstay Tolouse low Trax, Ninja Tune producer Lamusa II, Huntleys + Palmers affiliate nICo and Macadam Mambo & fellow Hivern Discs collaborator Eva Geist who delivers an acoustic, nostalgic rework of 'Il Diavolo'.
