The latest offering from Madloch's Sound Avenue imprint finds the label presenting new interpretations of Nopi's ‘Hookan Idyll'. Originally released in October of 2020 as part of the Ukrainian's well-received ‘Where to Go' EP, it's deeper design and hopeful atmospheres charmed DJs and fans alike, proving once again what an exceptional talent Nopi has become. Now bringing new life to the much-loved track, Sound Avenue invites Forty Cats, Meeting Molly and Pedro Capelossi to re-imagine the production for 2022.

Returning to the label and providing the first interpretation of ‘Hookan Idyll' is Forty Cats. With well over a decade's worth of DJ experience, Russian artist Christina Gavrilova aka Forty Cats has been a fixture of her country's nightlife, sharing the stage with Jody Wisternoff, Nick Warren, Yotto, Dave Seaman and more. Christina's production debut landed three years ago via 8bit Music, and in relatively short order the Russian artist has gone on to release projects via Lane 8's This Never Happened, Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, Juicebox Music and Mango Alley. Having made her Sound Avenue debut in January with a well-received remix of Eric Lune's ‘Dreaming Home', Forty Cats now makes a welcome return with an equally stunning take on ‘Hookan Idyll'. Smooth and rhythmic throughout, the Russian artist goes deep and driving for what results in a hypnotic eight-minute journey. Meditative lines, gentle tonal themes and intoxicating atmospheres unite across the first act, perfectly setting up an effects-laden break. Acid-like lines and ghostly vocal fragments emerge as the centrepiece evolves, adding a trippy flair as the narrative builds onwards to a thumping drop and colourful finale.

Making his label debut and providing the second interpretation of ‘Hookan Idyll' is Meeting Molly. Following initial outings on Amsterdam based powerhouse Songspire in 2019, Meeting Molly went on to compile a meticulous resume, with notable projects coming courtesy of Juicebox Music, Kiksuya Records, Mango Alley and Monstercat. Now presenting his first remix production of 2022, the Russian artist debuts on Sound Avenue with a gorgeous take on ‘Hookan Idyll'. Engaging from the outset, momentous kicks and rhythmic pulses converge for a fluid foundation, while swirling sonics bring texture and drive to the groove. Building an otherworldly narrative across the first act, hazy synth phrasing and neatly manicured percussion add emotion and drive leading into the break. The centrepiece delights with its timeless appeal, as misty pads add a hopeful charm before transitioning into a key changing drop and haunting finale. Also included is Meeting Molly's ‘Vocal Mix' which carries the same structure and arrangement of the main mix while adding impassioned phrasing for an entirely new dimension.

The release concludes with Pedro Capelossi returning to the label for two spirited renditions of ‘Hookan Idyll'. Born in Brazil but now based in Spain, Pedro Capelossi made his Sound Avenue debut in 2020, with the Madloch and Subnode collaborations ‘Turmeric Latte' and ‘Vanilla Noise'. Forging a strong bond with the label going forward, the Barcelona resident then went on to deliver his first EP for the Belgian imprint in 2021. Also finding a home on Nick Warren's The Soundgarden and Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas, Pedro now returns to Sound Avenue for his first remix project.

Wind Horse Records is proud to present another spell binding compilation from the ‘Banjara’ series composed and unleashed by masterchief Hamza. In his own way of coming full circle, the sensei of culturally inspired electronic dance music returns to his roots, with “Banjara India”.

We’re absolutely thrilled to have the multi-talented and versatile DJ/Producer Arnold From Mumbai AKA AFM join the Wind Horse Records family with a 3-track EP titled “Indian Mirage”. 
The Mumbai-based electronic musician who explored minimal soundscapes has evolved his sound palette to deliver a gorgeous package that will easily light up any dance floor. 

Kicking things off is the title track “Indian Mirage”, an expertly curated and selectively designed funker that has a bass guitar inspired bassline along with stabs derived from stringed instruments that give it a laid back & easy-going vibe. Delicately designed vocal samples add a layer of ethereal depth to the track that easily imbibes a sense of euphoria as the track builds on. Perfect for the beach or a terrace sundowner, this one is definitely going to have people swaying and moving to the beat with consummate ease. Turn it up! 

Following up it’s the dubby groover “Dance With Me”. The track immediately greets its listeners with a sublime pad that lends the track a cosmic atmosphere. A delightful, rhythmic groove along with a kick-percussive pattern, encapsulated in a beautiful mélange of lush chords and melodic notes elevate the tune to another level. Meant to create those magical dance floor moments, the track also has an incredible breakdown that introduces uplifting sounds with ease. All in all, a club or festival weapon that can easily take things up a notch when played out. 

Rounding things off, we have “Everyday Swing”, a quirky and soulful house music burner that can easily send your ears into a tizzy. A simple chicago-esque house music rhythm is layered with mysterious vocals along with breezy pads and bubbling atmospheres for a superlative vibe. 
As the track gradually builds, ethnic sounds from a Tabla along with uplifting harmonies deliver a delicious vibe that will easily enrapture those who move to it.

As World Beats Mature, it is truly and indelibly becoming an international phenomenon. Born out of warehouses in Chicago and New York, then cultivated in the clubs of London and Europe, house music culture has spread around the world with a determined influence. Thus the time has come for an important World Beats music scene to spring out of India, led by a striking young talent named Hamza and his exceptional Wind Horse Records label.

Wind Horse Records was formed in New Delhi in August 2009, earning the distinction of India's first house music label. Wind Horse was devised by prominent Indian DJ and producer Hamza. He dominated the label's artist roster so far with impressive releases that seamlessly meld house music rhythms, traditional instrumentation from Indian and other world musics, and admirably high production standards.

Wind Horse Records was formed in New Delhi in August 2009, earning the distinction of India's first World Beats music label. Wind Horse was devised by prominent Indian DJ and producer Hamza. Many of Wind Horse's releases feature Hamza collaborating with important talent such as Harmonic Choir founder David Hykes, well known Punjabi singer Jasbir Jassi, and Yungchen Lhamo, a Tibetan singer who has recorded for Peter Gabriel's Real World imprint. In fact, collaboration and the merging of tradition with contemporary dance music can be seen as Wind Horse's mission, and yields exciting and unique results. 

Wind Horse's future includes increased interaction with musicians from 'the west,' as the label includes renowned remixers and artists from the electronic music world. Wind Horse's next step includes remixers such as Tom Middleton, Michael Mayer, Ricky Ryan, and Kosmas Epsilon tackling its exotic sound. The label also will continue to showcase the music of its region's up-and-coming producers, including new discoveries Kartech, from New Delhi.

The label's primary focus remains to expose the pool of talent from India and 'the east' to global dance music citizens. Wind Horse has been largely successful thus far, earning accolades from fans like Riva Starr, Dubfire, Peter Kruder, Roger Sanchez, John Digweed, Lauren Garnier, and Sander Klienenberg. Wind Horse's reach looks to continue to expand as Hamza and Vipul Angirish increasingly play gigs and festivals around the world. Wind Horse is also forming a live 'sound system' act which includes Hamza, Indian percussionist Latif Khan, Latin percussionist Manu Idhra, and a promising mix of dancers, visual artists, and globally based guest musicians. Wind Horse will also be exposing its sound to the world through the WHR Podcast Series, featuring two mixes each month from Wind Horse DJs and friends of the label.

The Wind Horse style and concept has worldwide reach, blasting its international vibe out of club systems and home stereos in nearby as well as far-flung cities. With its ambitious plans the label is sure to increase its profile, delighting house music heads, world music aficionados, and lovers of exotic electronic music with an abundance of top notch releases. Keep and eye and an ear on Wind Horse Records and its tight knit family of artists ‚ exciting and surprising things are soon to come.
