hvnxx is one of the most special projects weve taken part in as a label. some months ago the xx and young turks asked our artists to remix tracks from coexist. it was a big honour and also a big responsi- bility, specially considering that the xx is one of our favourite bands. the outcome of such challenge is a four-track ep that showcases the sound of both well-established members of the hivern family, such as marc pinol and new jackson, and upcoming talents such as round and mistakes are ok. all four remixes are pretty different among them, but they all manage to maintain the distinctive spirit of the original songs in their own way. marc pinol takes fiction to the good ol days of chicago house, laying the original vocals on top of analog drum-machines and a rubbery bassline to that suggest an imaginary collaboration between adonis and oliver sim. the elusive mistakes are ok maintains the tropical vibe of reunion but provides a warped atmosphere combining breezy chimes with static haze and a propulsive bass that boosts the song towards the second part of the remix. hiverns latest signee round transforms the fragility of missing into a soothing house cut through uplifting organ chords and vigorous rhythms fulfilling dancefloor demands without loosing its melancholic character. finally, new jackson proves once again his knack with nocturnal ambiences flipping swept away into a sensuous deep-house gem guided by an absorbing piano and a slow but steady groove. the release comes in an embossed sleeve with artwork designed by arnau pi. hvnxx is a co-release with young turks.

it is 2013 and in this release we hear a totally new approach to sampling. a vinyl release of two artists. fitz ambro$e (cape breton island) residing intokyo, & ohbliv of richmond, virginia(usa). fitz ambro$e sound has unique influence from 90s hip hop and 80s soul, he is also affiliated with cosmopolyphonic collective in tokyo. from the record archives of his father, ohbliv developed the charm of sampling. the record is a 14 track collage of beats from two uniquely talented artists who transcend their individual musical roots. as if competeing with each other both leave the remnants of sampling material, and the method in which they cut and chop is truely an interesting work.

es ist geschafft, der wohlbekannte berliner club ritter butzke startet sein hauseigenes plattenlabel! den anfang machen der langjaehrige resident mario aureo und sein schweizer kollege manuel moreno, welcher im legendaeren hive club in zuerich sein zu hause gefunden hat. der titeltrack >autumn bell< ist ein durch praegnante sub- und lange lead-baesse getragener house-track, der vor allem durch die eingängigen vocals und seine atmosphaerischen pads, auch noch nach einer langen umtriebigen clubnacht, im gedächtnis bleibt. die dub version von >autumn bell< ist dahingehend etwas reduzierter und fokussiert sich auf den groove, ohne dass dabei die energie des originals auf der strecke bleibt. die b-seite ist mit >arosis< etwas deeper gehalten und besticht, trotz vieler string-variationen und filterverlaeufen, durch seine unaufgeregte grundstimmung, die den track fast zu jeder tages- und nachtzeit spielbar macht. dazu gesellt sich ein remix von bachstelzen-urgestein und ursl-mitbegruender sebo, der das thema etwas minimalistischer aufgreift und durch zusätzliche vocals und ein sehr abwechslungsreiches arrangement eine ganz eigene sound-welt, in der man sich wunderbar verlieren kann, erzeugt. der grundstein ist somit gelegt und in den naechsten monaten werden weitere spannende veroeffentlichungen von kuenstlern aus dem ritter butzke umfeld folgen.
