various is a good word to describe this escales vol.2 from croisière musique crew, the second various e.p. from the label, which seems so diverse that it almost could seem inconsistent to someone not familiar with the label. at the same time this e.p. summarizes perfectly a collection of different styles and aspects of croisière musique, from some heavy dancefloor-friendly house and techno to more abstract acid grooves, going through breaky minimalism. a1 – the e.p. starts with battle of wits from sebastian eduardo which is a direct uncompromising floor-oriented piece of house, setting a filtered atmosphere, bouncy bassline and a filtered synth which reminds us of a dubby atmosphere. a thick and compact atmospheric part progressively takes on the middle of the track and suddenly fades to let the main dancing pattern return. a2 – lowlifequalitys is a spatious acid piece which contains elements that are close to the aesthetic of video games. all synths coming together give a sense of confusion yet ordered by the repetitiveness of the loop. the sensation of something nerd and muddle rise from this experience, a expression of weirdness by the member of les points.b1 – programming behavior sets a step back in the ep, evolving around an hypnothic vocal piece which is extracted from an old interview of george clinton, heavily chopped and processed. on top of the simple breaky drum pattern which recenters the experience, gets added an arpeggio and a modular synth sounding sequence which progressively dramatizes the track. rx delivers here a mysterious piece of minimalism, bitter yet swingy. b2 – the e.p. ends with catan, the first appearance from françois, who co-founded croisière musique with rx. starting with an ambiant and breaky atmosphere, catan quickly evolves to a drivy four step techno piece. on top of the leading synth comes different glitchy elements, aerial pads and a disturbing shamanistic glitch in the middle of the track that announces a break which confuses the listener. the track follows-up on this contradiction between the hypnotic grooves and the solid drivy techno.

the micronaut vertont jenen moment, wenn das quietschen der s-bahn und die schritte auf dem nassen asphalt im dämmrigen himmel über den straßen verhallt sind. jenen moment, wenn die verlorenen seelen der abgase und bremslichtern zwischen den häusern umherirren, hinter deren leuchtenden fenster sich träume und ausstiegsfantasien fürs bett vorbereiten. wenn alle nah beieinander sind und doch jeder für sich ist, wenn die stadt ruhig wird und in den köpfen ihrer bewohner immer noch geschäftiges treiben herrscht. irgendwo zwischen bass music, electronica und pop findet stefan streck die rhythmisch-melodische entsprechung dieser epischen atmosphäre. dass er dabei einen ausgeprägten hang zur tragödie hat, das findet nicht nur in der leidenschaftlich-impulsiven geste seiner live-auftritte ausdruck, sondern auch auf forms, seinem dritten studio-album auf acker records, vertrieben durch kompakt. der fiebrige spannungszustand seines nächtlichen stadt-blues nimmt zwischen momenten der gedankenverlorenen melancholie und endorphingeladener aufbruchstimmung immer wieder neue formen an.

alternating systems ep is the debut release of our kommuna tapes imprint – an alternation of new and established artists, music for dancing through the night and music for the mind. track by track, we build a kommuna of artists who share our insatiable appetite for music discovery, guided by a certain vision of the dancefloor: deep stripped-down grooves, sometimes challenging, always with character. limited vinyl & tape label. based in barcelona, curated by cmyk & rubi.

nice price deal !!! two tracks with different taste: la oliva was produced together with tactik (alex brinken & mischa volzke) while sharing a studio in barcelona. the b side is produced in cologne together with danito. a sweet deep track with an old school groove, simply put a great track to warm up the dance floor. for this release we have two hot remixers who worked hard in the kitchen to get a delicious recipe sebastian roya and ramon tapia aka el carlito. the hands of ramon tapia changes the taste of la olivia a bit, turning it into a real dance floor demolisher .... feedbacks will say the rest. sebastian roya brings back the flavour of his hit compression with massive beats and flying melodies for his remix of puedes tocarme

it would be fair to say that hypercolour, the uk label founded by alex jones and jamie russell, have come a long way since the label’s inception 10 years ago.
from humble beginnings, to a roster of artists spanning across continents, genres, styles, and sounds, the label curates a very special 16 track compilation album to celebrate ten years of operation, and to capture the essence of the label’s ethos and energies that have been at the forefront of the label’s output in recent times.
the triple vinyl release includes a download code.

the ongoing celebration of kontra-musik s 10 years anniversary is basically a recognition of the importance of charisma within the predominantly mechanical sphere of electronic music. to quote label boss ulf eriksson in a recent groove interview: -to release on kontra you need to have developed a unique and personal sound.

globetrotting dj and producer luca venezia, better known as curses, indulges in his nocturnal and romantic side, revealing a penchant for dark basslines. jetzt oder nie opens proceedings with a straightforward bass and infectious arpeggio line. sebastian voigt s reinterpretation keeps the focus in the deep techno territory, introducing a steady paced and anxious facet. stepping into an industrial influenced soundscape, power of darkness revolves around the hypnotic vocal hook, gradually transcending the listener into a late-night dancefloor trance. infinity maker plays on the mesmerising repetition of the initial coarse drum pads, resulting in a straight-up techno tool. the synth lead stays in the deep end, progressing to a beautifully dubby and atmospheric finale.
