another essential contribution to the studio barnhus catalogue from the unstoppable force that is baba stiltz. these ultramodern dance pop anthems see young baba utilizing his own voice in a more direct and heartfelt manner than on any of his previous barnhus recordings, as well as dusting off the old acoustic guitar. much more to come, until then: lets make this last, dont move too fast make it for real, know how you feel lets make this last, dont move too fast lets make this real, know how you feel, dont move too fast make it real, know how i feel

makam returns to dekmantel records with his first full-length album for the amsterdam based label. blankens ongoing search for fresh sounds, textures and rhythms has lead him to than sadet, a gorgeous piece of work that takes his sound into new directions. that sadet displays a refinement of makams sound. the music is highly tactile, with an emphasis on the surroundings of the environment in which it was created. blanken: than sadet is a secluded beach on an island in thailand. a mysterious atmosphere haunts it. its windy and the weather is always a bit worse compared to the rest of the isle. there are many cliffs and you cant swim because the waves are too high. four years ago i visited than sadet for the first time and ive been coming back ever since. at one point i decided to bring my studio equipment. for a week, i dedicated my days to making music. those sketches formed the basis of the album.

uk funk connoisseur duke slammer takes the driving seat on the 303-fueled ‘bangkok skytrain’, with remixes from moscow based simple symmetry and returning artist tony g. inspired by tropical heat, bangkok skytrain utilises 303s, analogue drum machines and mixes in field recordings taken from an excursion to thailand. the result is a heady concoction of warm basslines and humid atmospheres, with a groove reminiscent of early 90’s melodic techno and a cheeky drum track that wouldn’t be out of place on a larry heard record. simple symmetry, the lipski brothers from moscow, slowly rebuild layers of the track like a locomotive building up momentum, and in typical style simple symmetry style finding the perfect vocal sample and pan pipes that help propels you into the foreign lands. before you know it the track is pumping at full chug! tony g’s take goes a bit further afield than the original. a dub rhythm sets the picture in outer-space. hihats stutters like cosmic dust rickashading off the nosecone of the space ship while longing strings take us deep into a distant nebular before the 303 bring the thousands of new galaxies into view. definitely music to listen to in the dark! look out for the secret dancefloor weapon ‘just drums’, an industrial drum machine workout for the freaks!

who is zoé zoe? its not a new french fashion designer. its not a new grill bar in your neighborhood either. and its not a newfound african tribe, nor a thailand made bio energy drink. its a lithuanian small town boy turned promising groom, turned taxi driver, turned techno producer, turned berlin inhabitant or the other way round. he could also be a man behind that secret weapon of your summer 2015 sets. hoy!
