Shkema's debut EP 'Kronikos' is a double release with four originals and four remixes.

Author describes it as 'world news show, where each song represents a different story'. Some of them he has experienced himself, some are hearsay from TV news programmes, and some are actually imaginary. Stories are not really related - just like in the news.

'Ispanija' was created during a friend's band rehearsal. Psychedelic vocals sounded interesting in Shkema's headphones while he was watching soundless singers and the muted musicians. The true reason why this track is called 'Ispanija' is still unknown to this day.

According to Shkema, 'Ola' is an allegory of Plato's cave. It's a story about prisoners, chained in the cave and the only moving thing they could see was a passing shadow - quite deep, uh?

Justin Strauss and Max Pask recently have joined up to form new project Each Other. True dance floor legends delivered bass-busy remix of 'Ispanija'. It could probably be best described as 'juicy distorted badboy from New York you don't want to mess with'.

Moscow's finest - Simple Symmetry - joined the pack and went back to the roots. Their remix for 'Ola' is future clubbing classic, four to the floor banger with a drop perfect for pogo

Front De Cadeaux - Le Pédé BPM (Fabrizio Mammarella Remix)

Curated by none other than future Lithuania’s President and Vice-President, Roe Deers (SXDNS138) and Titas Motuzas, Good Skills presents its brand-new VA release: “Sekta”, a five-track EP devoted to showcasing the finest of what the country has to offer when it comes to underground electronic music. Shurmin Nikita, Zakmina feat. EGOMAŠINA, Deserted Island, Shkema, and Bojarchük spared no efforts to deliver high-quality themes to the compilation by presenting their own characteristic sonorities that resulted in a rich tapestry of inventiveness and ingenuity – exactly what the label has envisioned since its foundation in 2019.

The track we were solicited to premiere comes from the uneasy mind of “weird producer and weird DJ” Shkema, whose most notable previous works can be found on NEIN Records, City Noises, and Good Skills itself.

For his contribution to the VA, he created “Vaikų Ligoninė” (meaning “Children's Hospital” in English); “Shkema at his best”, according to the PR text: Ghostly vocals, pitched drums, and an unpredictable flow tells another weird story from a parallel universe – his.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://goodskills.bandcamp.com/music

Trident (feat. C.A.R.)

Public Releases hits the lab for some aural alchemy and to turn out its first release of 2017. A four-tracker from Moscow’s Phil Gerus, 
The title’s a fitting one; every track feels like a vignette in a collection of short stories. Separately, they’re self-contained, but a rich narrative arch is added when they’re sewn together. If there is a theme here, it’s of viewing the future through the dusty lens of the past, and each of the songs explores this in its own fashion. 
The kick-off, “Ohashi Sky Garden,” starts as a hyped-up Italo space epic, pumped full of swirling synth licks and sharp, tight drums, but it mutates into something completely its own when vocal samples and warm keys enter. After the original’s brisk five minutes, we premiere here a remix by the legendary Richard Sen, breaks guy, house guy, disco guy, half-of-Padded-Cell guy, stepping in to give it a trancey tinge while doubling its runtime and adding a dancefloor-destroying Hi-NRG coloration.  Already out !

BENEDIKT FREY - H For Hysteria

We are launching a new serie of edits: the RePhrase Collection - free download

For the first one, we are very proud to introduce this track by Romain FX - the first one of many to come <3

For the occasion, we asked Romain FX 5 (hard) questions:

HF: How did you find this track, any particular reason why you chose this one to edit?
Romain: I found this track in a jazz specialised record shop in Hong Kong with a bunch of other middle eastern influenced records, it couldn’t have been more random to be honest but that’s the beauty of digging for records.
I’ve tried playing it out but i felt it was just missing a little push to make it a bit nastier, to make people go nuts on the dancefloor, so a couple of weird samples, an acid bassline & some touch up later... it became mayhem material (I think).

HF: What would you do if you weren’t making music?
Romain: In my coffin sleeping for eternity.

HF: Any favourite place in town?
Romain: Toilets are my favourite place they are the only place where you can truly be yourself and alone. I came up with my beat ideas taking a dump... everybody knows that but nobody wants to admit it.

HF: What is your favourite saying?
Romain: “Common sense is not that common”

HF: Do you fear karma?
Romain: I live by it, so I don’t fear it.
“You reap what you sow” is another good expression

Canada’s ALI X (formally Azari & iii) and Mexico’s XIMENA are releasing their self-titled, debut album project. Set for release this July via their own label ‘CONTROLLA’, tracks from the album are receiving remixes from a selection of well-respected artists, as is the case here with Timothy Clerkin's remix of "No Me Gustas."

After many failed attempts at writing the press release for such an ambiguous project, it's the artists themselves that introduce the album… 

“ALI X (ex Azari & III) and XIMENA (Controlla.Mx) are a powerhouse duo whose risky Spanglish techno-rap out of Mexico City cuts raw, rugged barrio street juice with laser sharp cultural rhetoric, radiated by a dominant visual element unique to their assay. Their Spring 2020, self-titled debut album is a bricolage of radical freak poetics and hyper-focused observations, entangled in a dusky jungle of dank, chunky production and abstracted aural art pieces. With deep-referencing and inspiration from Luis Miguel to Plastikman, Jean-Paul Sartre to John Paul Jones, these two rap-junkie technoid punks poke fun at the contemporary cultural milieu with a deadpan seriousness you can never quite read for sure...

Broadcasting from their home label CONTROLLA (‘con-troy-ya’, Mexico City slang for ‘with Troyʼ, possibly a reference to Trojan Horse strategy), their album is served with a forward-thinking range of remixes, a stacked-up edgy live show... And viciously momentous DJ sets.

Universally immediate. Fluency in Spanish not required.” – ALI X x XIMENA

Ton Globiter joins Wrong Era with a release that hits like a juggernaut. The Lithuanian local joins the International sister to Slow Motion Music, with a mini Album that resonates the effect Lithuania has on music.

A sparse, driven, dirty framework with proto/early Chicago influences, saturated with acid squelches and dispersed vocals. A never disturbing anxiety combines to fuel the intensity of the first five tracks. Castlevania shifts the chaos parameters to a more melodic, but still out there, smoke-machine anthem. Franz Scala brings proceedings back down to Earth with his remix, landing in a sunrise moment sometime in early eighties New York.
