Das Grosse Mafioso - "Das Grosse Mafioso" *40 Free Download Special

Our next release is a family affair involving two artists who previously released on Samo Records. Tassilo Vanhöfen (@eshu-est), who was featured on our “Spiral” compilation, delivers a hypnotic EP with four of his signature low-tempo/trance-y tracks, perfectly matching the vibe of these strange times. 
“Laterna Magica” gets reworked by @itako, whose “Standards” EP came out on Samo last year; the result is a sped-up version that will haunt you for days. 

“Arcadia Ego” is out digitally on May 7.

1. Tassilo Vanhöfen - Fragrance Rain
2. Tassilo Vanhöfen - Laterna Magica
3. Tassilo Vanhöfen - Wild Magic Dance
4. Tassilo Vanhöfen - Laterna Magica (Itako Mix)

Pre-Order

Tassilo Vanhöfen - Arcadia Ego (SAM007)/ Snippets

Inspired from Romanian cultural heritage, be it film, dance or musical instruments, Folclor Abstract is a glance back to the roots in search of a meaningful future.

The first track is inspired from the soundtrack composed by Cornelia Tăutu for the Romanian historical adventure film "Buzduganul cu trei peceți" (1977). The film presents a politicized version of the events that led in 1600 to the unification of the three Romanian countries, in the aftermath of a victorious battle against the Ottoman invasion (Călugăreni, 1595). Dance your way through as the story unfolds.

Dans cu balans is the result of a personal fascination for the cimbalom, an instrument of high versatility, frequently used in the Romanian fiddle music. In contrast to orchestral performances, which adhere to the composer's notes to reproduce a work faithfully, fiddling is also open to improvisation and tends to produce rhythms that focus on dancing, with associated quick note changes.

Searching for inspiration within Romanian folklore, I found Ivan Braga who was on his own pursuit of cultural heritage, experimenting with a variety of traditional instruments and rhythms from different regions of the country. Doba lu' Braga is Ivan's modern take on Romanian drum patterns performed on a traditional Moldavian drum (dobă) with an uplifting twist and arrangement for the dancefloor experience.

Reverie is an expression of the creator's state of mind. Lost in thought, stolen by imagination, haunted by memories, liberated by dreams.

Folclor Abstract

Buzduganul Cu Trei Peceți

The door swung wide open with a dramatic thud; in its frame a dark silhouette of a man loomed over the room. Most eyes turned to fix on the entrance, while others cowered beneath their tables, too afraid to make eye contact with the strange figure. He wasn't completely shrouded in mystery, however. In fact, many had been expecting the day he'd darken their doorway, but they never thought it would actually come. From the stories they'd been told, this situation could go one of two ways; they had to hope and pray that luck was on their side.

Last May, Moroccan-born, Geneva-based producer Reda Saiarh released his first EP, alongside production partner Ramin Salem, on Rotterdam’s Afrobotic Musicology. The release signalled the duo’s deftness for blending Eastern & Western samples, a trait that’s on display on Reda’s solo return to the label, Let’s Dance. Made up of four New Beat-inspired tracks, an era of music he was put on to through his Dad’s record collection, the release includes a contemporary flip on a Bowie classic, a homage to Yello and an acidic cut laced with Gabonese chants, in partnership with Thomas Lavanchy.

PREMIERE: Reda Saïarh & Thomas Lavanchy - E-O [AM Records]

Time seemed to move slower on a Friday, maybe she was clock watching too much. She drummed her fingers on the table and moved her computer mouse about to create the illusion she was still hard at work. The only thing on her mind was signing out and logging on to the night's activities. The weekend held promise of hedonistic experiences, of spaces to dance and play, of meetings with old friends and conversations with new ones. Until Monday arrived, the responsibilities of the week had no place in her thoughts: she'd cross that bridge when she came to it.

There's plenty of celebrations in order for the next release on Violet's naive imprint. It's even in the name. A Celebration Of The Euphoria Of Life is the debut album from London-based producer and DJ ELLES, which also marks the fifth anniversary of naive and the first ever LP to be released on the label. Across its 11 tracks, the album tells 'the story of a night out and all the nights out', and laces her own personal reflections of the bliss and freedom that going out clubbing gives us all - a cathartic subject as the release was predominantly written during a time that we were sorely missing these hedonistic spaces and the communities that frequented them. 

Sonically it brings together off-kilter dance music, acid, rave, Balearic, electro and a whole host of other sounds, all of which contribute to what ELLES dubs as "a love-letter to those vital community spaces for finding your people and pleasures and also about personal healing, processing life and discovering moments of clarity amidst the noise."
