pisetzky’s sound comes from a walk through elevated paths, passing through obscure lanes of a mysterious soul. hidden between its urban inspiration, his music expresses a unique vibe that drifts from a dialogue though this inspiring metropolitan nature. shy spirits whisper wistfully synths of a never ending voyage, five alluringly deep tracks that hit their hypnotic impetus as soon as you let them lead their full ambitious course. elevation, born from a collaboration with primal, has been produced in a nordic desolated environment in the outlands of copenaghen.

bad taste recordings hit 2016 in severe kinetic style with a fresh pair of tracks launching the identity of malux, the new neurofunk-focussed moniker of established bass producer skope (inspected). with turbine and fonk the agenda is clear – energetic, funk-fuelled dnb driven by detailed low-frequency design and a boisterous rave vibe.
turbine carries with it a stripped aesthetic, with a percussive pattern driven by the snare and wonky plucked synth work. this is heads-down, bassface material for ravers to get into step to.
fonk on the flip hits a cheeky upbeat tone, switching slickly between bass textures punctuated by staccato sonic fragments.

velvet records proudly presents « v003 », a four-tracks long overview and celebration of the contemporary electronic music scene. together, the artists featured on the french label s first compilation present an audacious look at the depth and span of the scene while also moving the form forward into bold new shapes. touching on expansive deep techno and minimal house, this compilation is made up off exclusively produced and previously unreleased music from ekomine, yaroslav lenzyak, leopol and damien k. sahri, capturing the essence of the current chapter of these genres, hinting at the shape of those to come. french producer ekomine is the first to hit the road with « ramble », a solid sweet-sour blend of atmospheric sounds leading the listener to find himself gently trapped into an unpredictable deep-space diving journey. this is where ukrainian artist yaroslav lenzyak and acolyte rata come in with « cellar door ». no constellations here, but the substantive claustrophobic tale of a spectral entity slowly catching your doppelgänger in the twilight hours. an angel flies and we re suddenly entering the sensitive world of « joy misery » from parisian early analog machines enthusiast leopol, who invites wandering souls to a dance-oriented and delicate voodoo ritual before passing the torch to berlin-based producer damien k. sahri s « travel marvel » which confers the record a multi-ethnic dimension, kindly whiplashing bodies with a mixture of unavoidable pulsations.

shortly after his first ep on dnuos ytivil, sub-division of bristol imprint livity sound, simo cell, neo-parisian and nantes native, puts his second release out on fragil musique. on this one, the young producer asserts his bass-tainted electro influences. highly skilled and very technical dj, but above all open to bridges between genres and eras, the record feels like he conceived it for his own club usage. on the a side, two subtle twin tracks, -reading rashid- and -soko ban-. cycling melodies and hypnotic pads sketch two bass outlines, as simple as effective, that seem perfectly fit for switching from a stripped down techno track to an old jungle weapon. on the flip, hit track -meteor racer- is surprising. a rawer and more stripped down electro piece that lifts the veil a bit more on the young producers talent. those four brilliantly crafted track definitely place simo cell among the french newcomers to watch closely.

after his third album and his small hit on this and that comes this nice ep from him, enjoy it! matcha matcha
