We knew of Kiwi as a DJ through the Durrr parties, but were properly introduced to his music when Daniel Avery sent it to us and immediately fell in love with it.

South London based Kiwi (Alex Warren) has pulled all the stops out over the last 6 months. With releases lined up on Kitsuné, Needwant and Deep Shit as well as on our humble outfit. As a resident at the Nest in Dalston he has extended his monthly headline slot to sprawling four-hour Dj sets and this summer see’s Kiwi hitting various places across Europe, including his first appearance in Ibiza and a number of festival appearances including the Bugged Out Stage at Field Day and Stop Making Sense festival.

Kiwi has managed to create a real unique sound and vibe by mixing ingredients of all the genre he loves, from disco, funk and techno.

EP opener, "Guanako Haka", is a monster of slow mo techno, hypnotic and subtly building up over 6 minutes with whispered vocals and electro sequences interlaced over a seriously solid groove.

"Bengal" starts like a Kraftwerk record circa Autobahn period, with motorik synth cycling endlessly. A 80's synth pad and some 90's house piano stab finish to confuse you: " but when was this record made?" 
The movement within the track, and evolution of each synth line keep you on the edge when finally some Rhodes chords and dreamy patterns enrich this epic, yet intimate piece of cosmic electronica.

Back to to the dance floor with last track on the EP . "Chiroptera", with its very strong house vibe and old school drum rolls cascading over a deep bass, reminds us of It's a Fine Line at their finest, both playful and retro. 
Synths and drums play question / answer games and a strange dreamy melody escaped from a 80's sci-fi movie crossed the track all the way through. Kiwi even managed to stick in a breakdown that flirts with deep house.

And that's the beauty of that EP. So many references, so many genre quoted over three tracks without falling into cliché or vulgarisation. 
Kiwi that can showcase a real love of dance music in all its ramifications. 
This is a modern record that knows where it comes from, is conscious of its roots but manages to stay relevant while nodding at everything that inspired it and made it what it is.

MONTE – CANVAS EP

Already supported and liked by:
Sasha, Digitalism, Finnebassen, Edu Imbernon, Sidney Charles, Niconé, Phonique, Animal Trainer, Trickski, Larse, Betoko, Dirty Doering, Mousse T., Florian Kruse, CamelPhat, Mousse T., Moonbootica, Tapesh, Till von Sein, Kellerkind, Raxon, Oliver Schories, Human Life, Los Suruba, Marc Poppcke, Chasing Kurt, Deo & Z –Man, Dashdot, Daniel Solar, Hannes Fischer, Madmotormiquel, Bambook, Mario Aureo and many more.

Finally we have him back. We just caught Monte before entering his white Ferrari and escaping back to the future in 1985. His first release "True" on JEUDI Records became an instant hit in 2012 worldwide and since then he continued to cement his reputation as an absolute analog synth specialist and connaisseur of the 80s era soundscapes. Nevertheless Monte has had many musical influences. His upgrowing was also domintated by the sound of Kraftwerk, the 90s techno sound and his love for film soundtracks. With his first solo EP he is bringing it all together. An extravaganza and a deep journey into sound.

A1 Bubblegum (Original Mix)
Without a doubt you will find Monte's trademark bass sound in this techish, stormy piece. It's also an opus with a huge build up reminding of Vangelis in its best manners. A beat to remember because his musical handicraft gets extensively introduced and you will find out what talented creations come out of Monte´s electronic machine brain.

A2 Bubblegum Theme
As Monte is giving us two very special bonus variations of his main themes, this one refers to the classic hollywood soundtrack music. The beautiful piano variation of the "Bubblegum" theme flows into an epic symphony.

B1 Push (Original Mix)
A heavy bassliner Monte is bringing up here.  An ideal for a racing game soundtrack or never the less a dancefloor smasher. A full loading speed sound with packages of energy inside. Monte´s soundworld on this track is combined with pinpoint arpeggiator synths and a rough shivering bassline.

B2  Push Theme
As a part of his 80's film sound track studies Monte has created his very own version of the "Push" theme. Made with loads of analog gear of that era this joint features live musicians dedicated to the sound of the 80s. Enjoy the cruise in a white and shiny Ferrari Testarossa through a sundowning Miami Beach scenery. So much to discover and still more to come.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Rising stars Pentatones, justly lauded for their distinctive blend of oblique pop, jazz-inflected electronica and languorous torch songs, receive the full Steve Bug treatment on Poker Flat's latest transmission: a meeting of minds that produces an utterly seductive dancefloor anthem. The original version of 'Karma Game' appears on the Pentatones album "Ouroboros" which will be released early 2015.

Distilling the original's haunting noir pop into a deep techno groove, Bug suspends tinkling chimes and tuned woodblocks around a gritty bass stab. A choir of siren voices follow, hauntingly layered as the tension builds and the riff tightens its grip on synapse and sinew alike. But all this is merely a prelude to the introduction of Delhia de France's vocals: a heartstring-pulling foil to Bug's intense repetitions, creating a heady blend that is deeply involving and instantly memorable.

An instrumental version gives harder-leaning DJs the chance to focus on the hypnotic riff and crisp, percussive touches that comprise the trademark Steve Bug sound, topping off a rich and unforgettable package.

Solomun - Something We All Adore  (Solomun Love Song Mix) [Unreleased]

No gimmicks, no clicks, no clichés. This is the mantra of SevenDoors. A passion for music is evident, carefully crafting audio with feeling and emotion. SevenDoors is very much a concept, developed over many years and now ready to be unleashed upon the dance community.
Made with real feeling, today’s exclusive premiere is entitled “Movement Of Whale”. Solomun has already been playing this one at the Diynamic Festivals and with its elastic beats and groaning bass it is a real show stopper.

SevenDoors - Movement Of Whale  - (Diynamic Music)

Support from Dyed Soundorom/Apollonia, Stephan Bodzin/Herzblut, Joris Voorn/Rejected, Tomas Barfod/Whomadewho, Tensnake, Agoria, SIS, Steve Lawler, Laurent Garnier, Lee Foss, Booka Shade, Riva Starr, Dubfire, Christian Martin.

"El Fadaa" is the fourth release from Romanian outfit Khidja this year, after EPs released on Love On The Rocks, [Emotional] Especial and Bahnsteig 23. This time it's through the young label Malka Tuti from Tel Aviv, from which we already featured a premiere a few weeks ago, the Willie Burns remix of "Botanical Garden" by Yovav. A2 "Drums Of Taksim" is a psychedelic downtempo trip with a huge build up featuring a spoken poem by Alan Berliner, live instruments mixed with electronics and some arabic singing, clocking in at 12 minutes. Remix courtesy of Baris K and Mehmet Aslan appears on the flip side too. Strong release, not to be missed! (Khidja + Mihai Balabason Guitars, Andrei Dinescu on Saz / Violin, Mehdi Aminian on Voice / Setar / Ney and Alan Berliner as the storyteller)

Some times the music just magically comes out, and that is the case here with "Syria" by new Sol*Selectas artist Unders from Amsterdam. After several successful tunes above the 120 BPM mark on labels like Sincopat and Groove On, "Syria" was Unders' first attempt at slower grooves, and an accidental experiment that just "fell into place, and was automatic magic". Syria's current political unrest is all over the news and social media, and the story being painted is difficult to watch. Driven to create a song which goes against all the negative publicity, Unders says "between all the negativity, the more i looked into the situation, the country, its people and its culture, the more this track reminded me of so much beauty the media doesn’t portray." The song itself a slow minimal trip with chopped up guitar licks, a gorgeous flute sample that takes the listener to far off desert lands, and features the vocals of Veerle.  Satori is yet another up and coming producer from the Netherlands, gaining instant recognition sharing the stage and studio with Acid Pauli, and producing incredible tunes utilizing live instruments played by himself, and tastefully incorporating these with electronic elements. His remix preserves the original message of "Syria" lowering the BPM to an even more hypnotic 104 BPMs. Satori adds middle eastern strings and chords, swapping out the original vocal for a more Saharan inspired call, and even plays delicately with some acid sounds furthering the listeners journey.  
Both songs are meant to invoke peaceful images of Syria, and conjure up positive intention on the dance floor. Sol*Selectas is very excited to present the debut song "Syria" from Unders, and the amazing remix by Satori,  two artists from the Netherlands you would do well to keep your eyes and ears open to in 2016.

For the debut release on my own new label IPSO with Kompakt Records, I wanted to try something different. The new label, IPSO is for me to invite a friend or a hero, - someone I admire musically to do a collaboration.
I’ve long been a fan of limiting myself in the studio. 
Sometimes working with less equipment brings out the best in you, so for the first release I figured it would be interesting to experiment with this. 
Inspired by the danish dogma films, I decided to make a rule. 
As I’m not one for overdoing things, the rule is very simple.
We are only allowed to use one instrument.
I reached out to my friend and all time hero Michael Mayer to do the first collab. 
Other than being co-founder of the mighty Kompakt records, and signing me in 2009, he is a genius in a dj Booth and a great producer. 
He has always been a great inspiration to me, so we agreed to start of my new Label with a bang. 
I set out the challenge, that Michael should choose the instrument. 
As I arrived in Cologne, Michael had chosen an old Yamaha Organ. Funny side note, is that it is actually Jörg Burgers organ. Jörg is actually quiet the legend himself, but that is another story. 
Michael and I spent 1 day in the studio, and we had a blast. 
The outcome is 2 great pieces of music that I'm very proud to share with you. RELEASE DIGITAL & VINYL - MAY 20
