valioso016 - “koi fish ep” comes along with the two heidelberg talents jan golly (be9) and durrred (the gathering). the ep includes two trippy and straight minimal tracks. first track “koi fish” can be played within a peak time set, while “quotes” fits more to an after hour environment. both tracks will be completed by a virtous and flowing remix of romanian dj & producer cristi cons.

the new vinyl-only record label modeight continues to expand the influence of east european underground dance music. silat beksi is well known for his tracks that pump the best afterhours worldwide, and also for his plentiful creative collaborations. three tracks were prepared for the ep together with the immensely talented musician durrrred from germany. “over” immerses us in a cold dark techno atmosphere. “afterglow” brings you out of the darkness so that you can see the infinite beauty of dawn at the sea. the elastic bass line of “inception” pulls you into the dense vibrations that captivate you and won’t let you leave the dance floor.

fresh from the factory of dreams. the three times academy award winning team for lifetime achievement mioh and durrrred are presenting the hollywood boulevard ep. glamour and glitter for your soundsystem. love and happiness for your heart and soul. early suppoert by brangelina, frat-pack and marlene dietrich.

ukraine’s minimal hypnotist silat beksi now prepares to make his signature mark on his label modeight with the aptly titled “on my own” ep. this is his first solo contribution to the label, having initially christened its opening with the heady, breakbeat infused stylings of the “inception” ep. the result of a collaborative effort alongside heidelberg producer durrrred. modeight’s discography already boasts a roster of producers who are pushing boundaries in the minimal field, with romania’s rqz and dragutesku, germany’s durrrred and “methylat” duo virkut & amin ravelle’s combined output constituting a powerful sonic statement for modeight. silat himself continues to delve deep into his extensive musical influences, showing no signs of slowing his creative output as the talent prepares to release more music on welsh imprint curtea veche and milan label hashplant. this ep sees silat in his element as he laces nuanced rhythms on top of funky bassline riffs and hazy electronic artefacts, cementing himself once again as a unique and characteristically engaging artist.

for its sophomore release, vinyl only record label, modeight prepares a special va: “modification 01” that firmly establishes the label’s unique fingerprint in putting out some of the finest minimal cuts in the eastern european underground circuit. this collection is ready to go right out of the sleeve for the best afterhours around the world.

three mannheim based labels will be joining forces to release a 3 part ep showcasing the emerging talent coming from their hometown and community. 9 tracks, 9 artists, 1 release date.
