chairlift present takes on several cuts from acclaimed second album >something< by some of their favorite producers, showcasing how their songs can easily be adapted for the club. appropriately titled the 6.15amix, spanish equipo fantástico john talabot and pional turn >i belong in your arms< into a balearica-infused club-closer. a nifty piano line and seductive rhythm take the song on a late night (or rather early morning) trip to the beach, while carolines voice is being warped into something from outer space. photek takes the same track to a whole different place with his powerful jungle interpretation. martyn respects both the pace and rhythm of sidewalk safari, yet exchanges the clean production for a rather more cosmic beat, incorporating many of his signature touches to compliment the sinister >i m gonna hunt you down< lyric. dan careys dub mix of >sidewalk safari< shows a more playful side, while arguably the most intriguing remix of the package is the fields take on >met before<, recalling his early work it is so warped and layered you may struggle to imagine the original minus the smallest of hints.

phonica records welcomes spanish producer extraordinaire pional to it’s main label with the ‘xme / one night stand’ 12”. pional is miguel barros and the madrid based musician has been producing for over a decade. with a string of well received solo releases on hivern discs, permanent vacation, young turks and counter, remixing the likes of the xx, chairlift, the rapture, prins thomas and john talabot (who he also co-wrote the incredible ‘fin’ album ender ‘so will be now...’ with) as well as djing around the world, pional has been keeping very busy indeed. for his phonica release he has produced two versions of two very special tracks. on the a-side, ‘xme’ is a melancholic and uplifting electronic excursion with delicate flourishes of it’s synthesised melody becoming a real ear-worm throughout its six and a half minutes. the slower and more foreboding ‘quiet ceremony’ reinterpretation takes the same melody in a darker direction. on the other side, ‘one night stand’ is a bumping, stripped back and moody club track with ghostly vocals floating above metallic pads rising to a release of energy and emotion. the ‘slow drumapella’ lowers the tempo and alters the feel of the track, reducing its elements to a bare-bones drum track with the vocal, fx and pads eventually coming to the fore.

rsd exclusive 7 inch. in the crew of tea time is a duet between sebastien tellier and caroline polachek, singer of the band chairlift (including a dub by mr dan).

as a member of chairlift, the band he co-founded in 2006 and exited in 2010, aaron pfenning pulled double (and triple) duty – playing multiple instruments, writing songs, producing, and contributing vocals for the band s major label debut. that comfort with musical multitasking – and a cache of songs he d written that didnt fit his main project – made a new solo effort seem like the natural and logical next step to take. pfenning assumed the name rewards (a moniker hes actually used since 2003), spent the better part of last year touring with we are scientists, brandon flowers and warpaint, and released three broodingly romantic singles (>i used to<, >what a loser< and the achingly beautiful >two cardinals<) that made a host of listeners take sudden notice

die us-amerikanische electronica-kźnstlerin olga bell (gleichzeitg auch ein mitglied von dirty projectors) veršffentlicht nach -diamonite- (2011) und -krai- (2014) nun ihr drittes solo-album. -tempo- beinhaltet gastauftritte der sŠngerin sara lucas (callers) sowie der langjŠhrigen kźnstlerkollegen jason nazary und gunnar olsen. -dieses album ist erst fźr den kšrper, dann fźr den geist-, erklŠrt bell, die -tempo- angefangen hat zu schreiben, direkt nachdem sie den film paris is burning gesehen hatte. jeder song steht in einer beziehung zum spezifischen rhythmus und kšrper, beinflusst durch das tempo des tages, durch das wetter und das licht. die zehn songs sind durch old-school club-musik, west-coast hip hop und portishead beeinflusst. experimentelle sounds treffen auf geschmeidige, catchy melodien. das ganze album ist absolut originell, vibrierend und sinnlich. ein tipp fźr alle fans von bjšrk, st. vincent, feist, sharon van etten, chairlift!
