Mr BC - Beyond (Tronik Youth Remix)

So here we are with Riotvan's second installment of the "Familiar Faces", showcasing what's happening with the label these days (a lot), making label-residents shake hands and welcome affiliated folks to the syndicate. Although this is a 'various artists'-format, the here gathered stylistic approaches and track-turned mindsets make a strikingly coherent body of work. Just another evidence of how Riotvan has evolved into a renowned think tank of likeminded artists and indicator of state of the art sonic bliss. 

Kicking off we find Perel immersing in yet another synth-driven stream, seeking continuation to her latest, widely praised full length-cycle, but this time bypassing Venus or rather "Super Venus" while floating off to other otherworldly dimensions.

Next in line are Black Spuma, i.e. Lauer and Fabrizio Mammarella, demonstrating via "Drumbaeck" what a match in Neo-Disco-heaven they are. A highly energetic beat, laying the grounding for a cheerful synth-hook and harmonies you won't get out of your head anytime soon.

Same goes for "Tropical Redux", the follow up by none other than Panthera Krause. A particularly elated affair, carried out by a funked up bassline and a catchy string-theme, sticking its neck out in Disco-realms, while maintaining a primetime-adjusted groove.

At this point it's about time for a premiere. Say hi to New Hook, an all-female power-force with their debut release. "FXART" comes as a well-versed exercise in reviving frigid 80ies leanings with a contemporary urgency and attitude. And that's just a glimpse on what's to come from Linda, Ilka and Juliane.

Chinaski, definitely no stranger to the Riotvan family, is taking on the 80ies vibe and hands in "Zeichen der Zeit", an unhasting ride through various galaxies, combining nostalgic synth-aesthetics with spaced out futurism.

Closing things off, it's label-mainstay Jennifer Touch cutting deep with "Bleed", an almost existentially emotive composition, exploring spiritual abysses lyrically, re-modelling emotional chaos within the overtones of the arrangement and even trimming things down to physical functionality within the track's progression.

"Familiar Faces Nº2" will be out end of October 5th on Vinyl and digital formats, both being distributed by Muting The Noise. Artwork courtesy of Karen from Studio M21N.

Zakmina - Odyssey (Jason Peters Remix)

@Crowhuntrecords, an electronic label founded by MontCosmik and Alda (@aldaprod) is releasing their first EP called “Pleasure Bass” by the co-founder Alda himself. The release starts with the eponym original track, a strobe dance killer track with deep dark bass, punchy kick, spatial snare, a looping vocoder, and stormy guitars riff. The remix duties are taken care of by Pardon Moi and Strapontin.

Pardon Moi takes care of the first remix. A retro affair from the famous Berliner duo, smelling old Italo disco with sublime disco basslines and crazy solo keyboard riffs. Best ingredients to propels you across the galaxy, full neon lights in your eyes.

Strapontin drives us into the depths of the wood with a second remix of Pleasure Bass. A mental looping bass that catches our heart, the drum patterns attacking our body until synthesizers elevate during the break to take us to that final rise. All overloaded with dark and lenient vocals as if you were the prey of a dark majestic bird.

The second original track ‘The last track on the moon’ comes to rest in a slow mood, less aggressive than other tracks and give us another view of Alda’s work presenting himself with more sexy melodies and 80’s snares.

Release date: 24/04/2019

Illusory Damages - Dissociative Identity Disorder

‘Eastwood’ is the 25th launch of Playground Records, which arrives from Russia through the Wolfstream duo who gives us 4 originals plus two remixes, one by La Mverte and the other by Balam.
‘Horses’ - a summer breeze that comes from the sands of a distant desert and comes to sneak down your balcony. The snake dance begins and the window fabrics fly inflated. Drums, percussions, guitars and synthesizers make a mantra of dreams that surround us and lead us bareback on wild horses for a crusade of lysergic steppes to remote destinations.
