detroit import

ultraphat house anthem for the summer of 2019

it was memorial day weekend 2016, and the sun shined bright over the detroit river. pontchartrain stepped up to the decks at the red bull stage at movement electronic music festival donning his infamous detroit vs. itself- t-shirt. his first song through the rane rotary mixer was a dubplate made specifically for his set: afterlife. its a brilliantly executed balearic daytime disco rework that warrants the praise of summer anthem that its earning. on the flip is pool an equally sunny slomo beatdown rework from blair french. it s a delightful blend of cerebral and soulful, and is finally getting a release after being originally championed by peter croce on his le mellotron paris set back in early 2018. this 7inch is pressed heavy and cut loud at 33.3 rpm with a normal non-dinked hole.

the french in the 80s were not faint-hearted: as some threw themselves heart and soul into music or business, others wouldnt mind going bottomless to get themselves noticed. while bernard tapie soon realized his own fortune was rather to be found in business, many music-loving dreamers already imagined themselves in the sun, in an enchanting world made of funky rhythms and synthesizers.

launched in 2010 by infamous electro artist umwelt and graphic partner chris nexus 6, new flesh records definitively focuses on underground and futuristic music. productions are characterized by the use of analogue synthetic ma-chines: therefore, the music oscillates between electro and techno styles.
*elektro diktators vol. 1* inaugurates a series of top electro compilations on the french imprint and offers for its first chapter four uncompromizing tracks from the like of renegades dynarec (electrix, delsin), umwelt (shipwrec, sata-mile), franck kartell (transient force, black leather) & jauzas the shining (last known trajectory, black montanas). each artist provides his personal vision of electro in an oustanding way.
