we met fred ventura in 2006 over emails sent to italians do it better headquarters. he was one of the first people from europe to start writing the label prior to after darks release. it took us a few months to realize that this was fred ventura, the cult italo legend from milan. like a true gentleman, he had never bothered to mention it. since the early 1980s fred ventura has released numerous singles in europe & toured the world extensively as a solo artist. last year, johnny was in bologna on tour with desire & fred came out to the show to drink champagne & bring us some copies of the reissued tapes of fred’s early post punk group state of art. the lightbulb lit up & we asked him if he had any home recordings of his solo work. months later, he sent us 83 tracks of cassette recordings between 1982 & 1987. they had been sitting upstairs in a dusty box at his parents house in italy for the last 25 years. these tracks have only been heard by a handful of his closest friends. we were completely floored & honored! finding a beautiful treasure completely untouched & preserved is so rare. the songs are raw & honest written by a romantic with a love for an anthemic chorus & a drum machine running through his veins. think early minimal depeche mode with an italian heart. ornew order covering madonna produced moroder. yes, its that good. here we have the first official italians do it better release of these songs on a 4 song 12inch ep. this vinyl only release is a teaser for the >dont give up< 18 track lp out in a couple of months. so in the meantime, slip on those gucci loafers, rev up the alfa romeo and head down to the discotheque because life is too short

passion has always been one of marcus meinhardts favourite subjects. he has managed to secure the singer fabian reichelt for his latest release on upon you, fabian has intertwined the theme of eros and thanatos delicately within the beats. fabian is known for his collaboration with marek hemmann, who recently produced his album with him. >dont look into my eyes< is a typical meinhardt styled club track that has been sweetened by fabians voice giving it a certain pop-appeal and funkyness that is sure to get the hearts pumping faster on the dancefloors. his producer partner andreas henneberg adds his more cantankerous style to this track with his the glitz remix on the flipside firing the whole thing up with some strategically placed strings

after five years of experimenting with a string of different singers, chromatics introduced ruth radelet as the lead actress to star in their films in 2005. forever standing out from the crowd, chromatics imagined the soft rock focus of hall & oates stretched over a fleetwood mac beat. trading the dancefloor for gorgeous chords & melancholic strings. they lived where it was always late & neon lights glimmered across the wet streets. this record archives studio work between 2004 & 2006 leading up to the now infamous >night drive< album.

BETTER DAYS (LIM.ED)
12 Inch
20.07.09
the second release on the newly formed barcelona label they are changing it comes from barcelona based american dj/producer fluen. on this ep fluen gives us a glimpse into his production range delivering an ep that has a clear chicago/ny house influence , but manages to avoid the conga fever that has swept the scene as of late, and at the same time sounds very current. on the a side, things take off with better days, fun and very dancefloor oriented. the second track on the b side, mary says stands out right away thanks to a catchy piano riff and female cut up vocals,reminiscent of old chicago records. on the b side, fluen mixes things up a bit with a song that catches you from the get go. music remains starts very basic, with a dreamy piano line and a kick that lay the foundations for a song that could easily be a hit, simple, beautiful and very dancefloor friendly. the vocals wisely remind us that >people come and go, times do change and allà. but the music remains<. limited edition of 500 units

persistencebit returns with the follow up ep of wang incs meditations for a better world series, which first part on persistencebit has been highly acclaimed and has been given incredible reviews, such as in de.bug magazine among many others. previously on sonig, bip-hop, and context, he now reappears with number two of the series and once you start listening you will know it all makes sense, given how close in spirit wang inc. s fresh fusion of experimental treatments and funk-house grooves is laid down. throughout the ep, wang speckles his fabulous metal machine music with rolling bass lines, high-stepping beats, and brilliant splashes of synthetic colour, whether it s the pounding stepper mind the gap or the pulsating future-funk of you are late a near-perfect fusion of experimental and dance musics, hyperactive dog splatters its house-inflected steam-roller with showers of whirr and click, and animates it with snares that hit so hard they could chop your head off. in the closer track this is the song to say goodbye he brings us electronic noise and beat madness to round things up and create a diverse sounding listening experience
