Release Title: Future of House II
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF031
Release: 05.12.2014

Just over two years since its inception and plenty of strong, dance-floor oriented releases down the line, Light my Fire presents its second compilation, ‘Future of House II’, which gathers twenty-two exquisite, at times exclusive tracks by the label’s core artists and friends. As the title suggests, the young label is ambitiously aiming to look towards the future, while referencing timeless house signifiers and contemporary soundscapes in the process. It becomes apparent that LMF doesn’t necessarily see the future of house in one singular style, but rather in a multitude of facets… quality is key.

Release Title: Dirty Planet
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF038
Release: 19.08.2016

Two prime Berliner power duos bring their creative forces together in their first joint production, after having previously collaborated on remix duties. 
Emerging from a dark lair overpassing techno and house, Dirty Planet finds the artists putting their collective stamp on the dance agenda, with Kruse & Nuernberg bringing forth their knack for aptly crafted melodies and Mat.Joe packing up dancefloor heat through rhythm and percussion.
Seems Real kicks off with a zippy synth sequence that plays around a perfect balance of melody and seductive rhythmics. The eerie vocal hook sets a dreamy ambiance as the cut unfolds brimming with subtle bleeps.
Aside from the bumping bassline that surfaces from the get-go, another element that’s instantly felt on Dirty Planet is the panting vocal sample. Laying a nervous mood from the first beats, the track explores a variety of frequencies by the way of percussive alternations filled with claves and clangs. 
With its united production efforts, Dirty Planet offers up two strapping tracks that bypass the brain and aim straight for the body.

Release Title: Battle Boii
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF039
Release: 18.11.2016

Mainz rooted duo Matchy and Bott serve up three dancefloor heaters for their “Battle Boii” EP.
A traveling bassline opens up the eponymous track, while dramatic synth leads slowly unfold into a dreamy, laid back melody. The ascending groove is slow paced yet intricate, constructing a perfect setting for subtle transitions. On the other side of the melodic spectrum, Ocean surprises with a juxtaposition of gloom and wandering indie vocals. Playful harmonic keys alternate dark synths, forming a looming, ever-approaching backdrop that’s a perfect tension builder. Enrolled for the remix, Lars Moston injects more bass into Ocean’s already high-strung framework. Distorting the original vocals and pairing them with equally contorted synths, the track comes as a powerful floor mover that’s equally dancy as the original.

Release Title: Feelings
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF040
Release: 20.01.2017

Cologne-centric dynamic duo Danito & Athina bring their fresh, soul-inspired production style into play on their newest release for LMF. ‘Feelings’ commences as a winding groove, adding sequence upon sequence of tense chunks on a backdrop of dramatic synths paired with a throbbing bassline. Spiralling on, it reaches a nervous and dance-inducing apex that is only partially relieved, keeping feet moving. The second track dives even further into labyrinthian tech explorations. Starting off with a subdued groove, ‘Hyperion’ progresses into an immersive realm by the way of pulsating drums and psychedelic synths. Berliner Tony Casanova is enlisted for the remix, providing a collateral version of ‘Feelings’. Dotted with relentless bell loopsthat evoke a dark and melancholic atmosphere, the reinterpretation carries on minimal elements from the initial structure. Granite kicks layered with sparse distorted vocals create an unfamiliar yet highly mesmerizing groove with late night appeal, rounding off the release on a deep note.

Release Title: Lunar Plant
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF041
Release: 31.03.2017

Berlin-based producer HRRSN doles out a slice of deep electronica carrying his distinct vocal style in his otherworldly Lunar Plant EP.

Whether it’s an ethereal intro or an intricate arrangement, HRRSN pours a lot of emotion into his music – bold swells, vocal cut-ups and cinematic strings sit tight on top of resonating drums. Such an apparition is Sane, the immersive opening of the release, where the artist neatly carves out an enduring groove through airy melodics and melancholic vocals.

Signes buzzes in with a stripped down, piano-infused lead line paired with cavernous tribal percussion. Crafting melody into an unsuspecting groove seems to be HRRSN’s forte, as he manages to subtly transition a wave of tension into an expansive breakdown, culminating in an array of broad, light-diffusing synths.

Up swoops through wavy, acid-tinged synth loops on a backdrop of sinewy percussion. Deft noise modulations keep the lead line interesting, as it develops into a weightless, euphoric exploration great for peak-time antics.

Artist: ▸▸▸ Solvane & Daniele Di Martino: @solvane @danieledimartino

Release Title: Back To
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF042
Release: 26.05.2017

Berliners Daniele Di Martino and Solvane join forces at the intersection of Deep and Tech, serving up three weighty cuts of four-to-the-floor heat in their “title” EP.

“Back to” plunges in with a gradually ascending staccato of vibrant synths, laying down the groove bar by bar. In contrast with the light emitting synth array comes a low key bassline, making for a down to earth yet dreamy overall ambiance. Silenced echoes last for a few moments until ‘Reality’ kicks in with subdued groovy bass and faint vocal chops. The two producers aptly use slow paced build ups, creating ever-ascending yet constantly grounded melodies. Stil vor Talent kick-starter Marc Holstege on remix duties delivers a smooth rework of Reality.  A resounding synth lead carves out subtle rhythm variations while metallic percussion adds to the gravity of the piece. 

“Kraxler” touches a different strain of their production spectrum, revealing a composition that is equally introspective as it is dance-inducing. With a minimalist backbone and arpeggiated string arrangements, it suitably rounds off the EP with a mesmerising melody dotted with punchy accents, fit to stir up any dancefloor.

Release Title: End of Game
Label: Light My Fire
Catalogue No.: LMF043
Release-Date: 2017-07-21

Berlin-based talent Tony Casanova steps away from his usual disco antics in a four track EP bridging deep tech and minimal.
Lost Again kicks off swiftly with a rattling sequence, layered on heavy percussion and suspense-inducing chords. Distorted vocal chops add a sense of mystery, enhancing the spirit of adventure into the unknown imprinted by the melody.. Developing into a spoken word-like sequence, the vocals add to the atmosphere, just before a violin break takes center stage.
End of Game evokes a familiar and nostalgic ambiance, aptly crafted through wistful loops and dreamy percussion. Delving into an array of synths at peak point, it induces a hypnotic state, sustained by high vibrant strings, conjuring up an emotive environment.
Julian Wassermann dives in on remix duties, providing two solid alternatives to End of Game. The first remix strips down the elevated twists, reverting to the melodic backbone and emphasising the track’s dance appeal. The Error Remix offers a more dynamic bend to the construction, that draws in from the get go and surprises with a punch-heavy bassline and compelling groove.
