PREMIERE: Local Suicide & Skelesys - No Evidence [ Samo Records ]

Release Title:  No Evidence
Artist: Local Suicide & Skelesys
Label: Samo Records
Catalogue No.: SAM010
Release-Date: 04/03/2022

Promotext: 
For our 10th release and 5th anniversary, we've involved some good friends of the label whose work we greatly admire.

Greco-German power couple Local Suicide has teamed up with kindred spirit Skelesys to deliver two killer original tracks for the 'No Evidence' EP.

The title track, inspired by old detective novels, blends Local Suicide's signature dark and moody sound with Skelesys' haunting melodies and subtle grooves.

'Weird Encounters' conjures up heavy Berlin vibes (no coincidence, as all three musicians currently make the city their home), taking the listener on a girl's disorienting journey while lost at a party.

'No Evidence' gets the remix treatment from both Intergalactic Gary (Viewlexx), interpreting it as a hypnotic future classic EBM version, and Samo head honcho Facets, who offers a high-energy, arpeggiated take on the original. Anatolian Weapons (Beats in Space) deconstructs 'Weird Encounters' and transforms it into a full-on rave machine.

No Evidence EP

PREMIERE: Local Suicide & Skelesys - No Evidence [ Samo Records ]

A new (promising) music platform is born: Hailing from Culiacán, in the north of Mexico, Nativo kicks off its journey with a vital nine-track compilation featuring none other than Alex Aguayo (FREEDL038 as Mahkina), Undefined Pattern (SXDNS197), Technicism, Sixtoagusto (SXDNS031), and Velax plus the big masterminds behind the project: Roliva, Prince Terrible, Fausto (SXDNS064), and Chinosynth (FREEDL021).

“We’re not a label, nor a promoter, venue or club. We’re a space for the electronic music culture and its actors. If it’s honest and well done, we’ll take it”, said the lads in their press release text. Signs the project will be successful are abundant, starting with the aforementioned selection of artists for its debut release in addition to the supportive and open-minded attitude they intend to adopt.

The track we chose to review/premiere is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the VA: Ricardo Oliva aka Roliva delivered one of his best works so far. “Voltagge” is intense, wild, and fierce, the kind of theme that was cooked to be served only at peak time. Savoury!

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

Italo maestro Marcello Giordani shares the second slice of his upcoming LP “Advanced Process” delivering his signature, enticing approach to Italo Disco new and old.
We are given an insight into the producer’s abundant talent for driving warm basslines and infectious, glistening melodies.
Both vocal and instrumental versions drip with analogue warmth.
With crisp drum machines and soaring vocals from the legendary Fred Ventura throughout, ‘Mysterious Calls (In The Night)’ is a strong release laden with anguish for a missed joyride with Giordani along a moon lit Mediterranean coastline.
Slow Motion / Wrong Era head honcho Franz Scala changes the gear and ups the energy with a sizzling, pounding remix. A consistent driving bassline, pioneering percussion and intelligent synth lines reel you in from start to finish. Scala soundtracks the after-hours Marcello is driving to.

Franz Scala offers the first remix of 'Homme Fatal'. He is a long-time friend of Vamparela, with whom the used to organise parties together in Thessaloniki before moving to Berlin. Franz is now the label head of Slow Motion and New Era and is known for running the infamous Italorama parties in Panorama Bar. His diverse sets weave smoothly between Italian Dance, Psychedelic Disco and Proto House, quickly turning the dance floor into a vignette-tainted retro nostalgia rave. Aside from producing on his own imprint, he has releases on World Unknown, Bordello A Parigi, Bahnsteig 23, Tusk Wax, Mechatronica and Discodromo's Cocktail d'Amore Music and frequently inspires dancers in clubs and events all over Europe. While preserving the catchy, stuttering bassline and 80s break drums, Franz's remix softens the track for a more melodic rework with lush synths and gentle, reverb-heavy vocals.

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Comme Un Coeur aka Dmitry Distant. One of his most luscious releases to date, he presents a romantic take on the classic ‘Eyes Without A Face’ ballad written by Billy Idol and Steve Stevens back in 1983. Languorous vocals by Valeria Simonova, Dmitry’s longtime collaborator, are set off against a backdrop of lush, sparkling synth parts, to create a hazy, dreamy sonic atmosphere. The title track is juxtaposed to the expertly made remix by Franz Scala, a well-known DJ and owner of Slow Motion Records label – this hypnotic throbbing banger with Italo and EBM influences is surely meant to rock the dancefloor.

Agoria - Hélice EP

HFT038

Gallic cynosure Agoria debuts on the Hotflush roster with ‘Hélice’ – a compelling, propelling record that envelopes and encompasses. Blending an ambience of eerie sci-fi over suspense-laden peaks and troughs, it goes after body and mind in equal measure.

Its B-side counterpart is  ‘Make It Real’, a jacking house number cut through with a classic Rhodes bounce. The latent garage disposition is brought to the fore by ESS, whose remix nods to the East Coast glory days of yore.

Release date: December 1st 2014

X-PRESSINGS 022: Sleaze For Me (Eric From America Edit)

Kardashev Scale

A Time Before is a retro-futuristic journey where disco grooves and vintage house rhythms meet the timeless energy of the 80s. With shimmering synths, warm basslines, and a nostalgic yet modern sound, Antoine Pete (Stereo Fall) channels the spirit of Daft Punk and the golden era of electronic music into a fresh, dance-driven experience.

Blending disco revival, French house, and synth-infused melodies, this album captures the essence of retro club culture while delivering a contemporary edge. A Time Before is not just music — it’s a cinematic soundtrack for late nights, neon lights, and timeless memories.

A Time Before

Antoine Pete - Shimmering Mirage

Israel’s hottest export follow up excellent EPs on Hivern and I’m A Cliché with a 3-tracker for the global psychedelic cult of Multi Culti.

Tel Aviv’s Red Axes are one of the most exciting new acts in dance music, with rich sound that is musical, deep, trippy and organic, while remaining precise and lethally effective in the club. The range in their sound is impressive, their talent unmistakeable. They are one of our favourite artists of the year, and this latest record is one of their best yet.

Lead track 'Waiting for a Surprise’ builds around a mid-tempo disco bassline, with tough percussion, and rugged synth stabs, but it’s the eerie and unique sounding vocals of Brazilian collaborator Abrao that bring everything together. This one is a guaranteed bomb for building up, tearing down, peak time or chilling out… an outstanding track in every sense, the kind that force trainspotters to the DJ booth to discover what’s playing. Next up, ‘Hope’ kicks off with resonant, delayed toms, adding a haunting howl and synths before dropping into a wild, clanging, carnivalesque frenzy. It’s understated, but advanced, with an interesting arrangement that really opens up in the second half. Finally, 'The Metal Bender’ slows the tempo but ups the vibe into an elated, slow-burning space-disco anthem. Fantastic stuff!

Melbourne’s Kris Baha, fresh from launching his Power Station imprint, offers a stripped down remix of ‘Waiting for a Surprise,’ with a heavy, industrial-influenced groove that wanders into the deep, dark end of party strasse.
