Kastle - Hyperreality (SMBL034)
Release Date: April 21, 2015

01. Reality Void
02. Strange Days
03. Beautiful Things
04. Experienz
05. Dreamers
06. Falling Up ft. Xavier

In 2015, digital technology has all but removed the ephemerality of the music making process, allowing for the retention of each and every step in the production process. Whereas the analogue process allowed the dissolution of drum arrangements and synth lines into the ether, software retains nearly everything, a practical development that has nonetheless erased some of the magic and immediacy of dance music. Kastle’s Hyperreality EP, the Los Angeles-based artist’s first release of 2015, is a conflation of past processes and a contemporary approach, decade old files dusted off and freshened up.
 
A love letter of sorts to a younger age, Hyperreality, which also functions as the cap on an eponymous tour, features six tracks that spawn classic garage and jungle sounds, from the maniacally chopped breakbeats on “Experienz” to the diva vocals and crunchy 2-step of “Strange Days”. Seated in deep nostalgia for his teenage years, Kastle’s arrangements on Hyperreality recall an experimental era, pre-internet where the parameters of dance music were yet to be established and rule breaking was the norm.
 
And while Hyperreality might recall a decade-plus old sound, the production value is essentially modern, each track fitting in beautifully as both soundsystem culture and introspectively-motioned headphone music. With a vocal boost from Xavier, Kastle touches on pop motifs throughout the tape, balancing R&B proclivities with the ruthless swing of 2-step and rthythmic energy of garage. Kastle’s aesthetic is based in nostalgia, but don’t trick yourself into thinking Hypereality is just an ode to the past.

Enoq ist MC aus Berlins Süden. Früher war er Produzent, mochte es aber nicht wenn die MCs über seine Beats rappten. Also fing er selber an Reime über Beats zu packen und das mit Ende Zwanzig. Hashtag Spätzünder. Zwischen dem „Traum eines Hartz4ers“ und Features für Audio88 & Yassin hat er die letzten Jahre an seinem eigenen Output gearbeitet. Nach einer Free EP 2016 steht Anfang 2017 sein Debütalbum auf dem Plan bei Jakarta Records. 

"Wir sind Raufbolde, jung, wild, wollen nur spielen. 
Alles Gewinner die nur ständig verlieren..“ 
Enoq - So dabei 

Im Deutschrad 2016 ist man entweder Straße, oder Backpack, oder hedonistischer Trap Sound. Ausnahmen sind selten. Bei Enoq ist es anders. Er bewegt sich zwischen den Schubladen. Die Umgangsformen der Straße, ihre Härte und Gewalt sind ihm nicht fremd, aber beschränken Enoq nicht in seinem musikalischen Schaffen oder seiner thematische Bandbreite. 

„Für dich geht alles nur um Likes oder Klicks, doch der Scheiss den du machst, ist wie Gift für die Kids“. - Enoq (feat. Döll) - Pappalapapp 

Die Straße reflektiert sich selbst. Enoqs Geschichten sind auch Episoden des eigenen Scheiterns. Stories von einem Leben zwischen Suff und stumpfem Job, verwoben mit persönlichen Erlebnissen in Schöneberg, Berlin. Mal über klassische Rap Beats, dann wieder über zeitgeistigere Produktionen. Zwischendurch wird auch mal die Hookline selber gesungen. Unterstützt wird er bei diesem Album unter Anderem von seinen Homies Mädness und Döll. 

"Wer keine Ziele hat kann nicht scheitern, 
und bin ich ohne Perspektive Digga kämpfe ich trotzdem weiter“ 
Enoq - Streben nach Glück

Following his release of the groovy original cut, multi-talented Alexander Kotz aka Elderbrook has unveiled a remix package of his latest single ‘Difficult To Love’. Featuring remixes from Amtrac, Monsoon Moon, MR H’s, Command Q and Nu Aspect, the remix pack will be released on Friday 12 May. 
 
The ‘Difficult To Love’ remixes are a nod to the explosive energy of summer ahead. Amtrac’s caressing breakdown of Kotz’s emotive vocals propels his cut as a firm dancefloor filler. Amtrac (aka Caleb Cornett) is forward-thinking with his production and DJ skills, having previously released remixes via Kitsune, Defected and Ministry of Sound.
 
The MR H’s remix blends a looping vocal with hi-hats and wavering synths, which flaunt his distinctive house style. Having been the first signee to Radio 1 DJ Danny Howard’s label Nothing Else Matters last year, the Manchester-based producer has also released records on Toolroom.
 
Meanwhile Command Q brings a burst of energy to the original cut, creating a trap-style sound and distorted Elderbrook vocals. The Australia-based producer is about to embark on a tour around his home turf, after releasing his latest single ‘Choo Choo’.
 
The last remix comes courtesy of Nu Aspect. Providing a more summery rendition, his cut perfectly blends deep bass and light synths. The upcoming Bristolian bass producer brings the remix package to a strong close. Each remix seamlessly strengthens different attributes of the original single.
 
Kotz secured his vocal reputation with Andhim’s remix of his single ‘How Many Times’ – which was taken from his first EP Simmer Down. Building on this success, the producer, singer and instrumentalist had his much-hyped sold-out headline show at XOYO London at the end of March. Garnering support from BBC Radio 1 DJs and credible tastemakers, Elderbrook is further cementing his status as an artist to watch.
