phat collaboration

next infuse banger...

crazy 12 track library music style album on this ace italian label. all based around bumping live rhythms triggering an obscure japanese drum synth module recorded in 2018. it was november 2017 when i received a call from an old friend, hi fabrizio, i found a rare japanese drum machine, you should come and see it before i put this on ebay. i went to check it out and immediately realized it had more potential than just drum sounds generation, it was able to produce quirky and creepy sounds if triggered by any sound source. so i bought it and brought in the studio, where me and alex were laying down new beats and ideas. it took just three days of jams to get the skeleton of this record done: i programmed the module to receive alex s drum hits and the device started creating synth lines, almost as it was speaking its own language.i ve found a soul in this machine, and i wanted to bring it to life in these tracks, a mix of arranged compositions and improvised jams. no root keys, no grids, no clicks, everything came out in an instinctive and natural way as far as we know it s the first time this synthesizer/drum machine is been used in this improper and new way.

following the success of christians latest album -mare- here are 13 incredible reworks by artist like max cooper, robert koch, avatism, tiger lou, christian himfelf and more... strictly limited double 12 inch including poster!

all pieces are conceived and recorded between the end of 2015 and 2016 between amsterdam and tuscany. the path starts with cristallo di bismuto which is a low-tempo jam marked by dusty 80s drums and deep pads that transport you straight away in an underground nocturnal urban sci-fi scenario. i wish you could shelter me has within a powerful rolling bass part and a solid drum-machine pattern, dx7 s style keys with some romantic melancholic colors. oosterpark laguna is an exotic house groove with a lush pad and a sweet saxophone solo perfect for a sunny warm day. mare aperto is a nostalgic house tune inspired by the early chicago s piano house and the italian golden era of clubbing of the end of 80s early 90s. the release includes a label s sticker inside and a stamp on the inner sleeve.

rumore is a nomad, an artist who belongs to many places but inherently returns to his native venice through his sound. with each release, his tracks become progressively more energetic and subtle. del mare plunges us into his world, a dream submerged in the water flowing through the vast number of canals in the italian city.

blackwater is honoured and proud to present a very special release, in our production catalogue number as “bwl000”, released on vinyl in a very limited edition. a single side ep screen-printed on the non engraved side with a suggestive image of the sea of “capalbio”, a town intimately connected with the rise of blackwater society. the ep will be initially presented at the 2016 edition of the flussi festival where blackwater began its music journey two years ago starting right from -capalbio- and starting musically from that first piece “il mare di capalbio” produced by -devianza- owner of the label, who made this as homage for flussi. “il mare di capalbio” finally will see the light, being pressed on vinyl support exactly in the same month, in the same festival together with the same...

emotional especial comes together with future nuggets for a -special- one-off collaboration. reinterpreting the music of steaua de mare are four remixes from rising (eastern) stars khidja and mehmet aslan. the first in a short series of especial -specials- - where new artists are brought together for unique releases - we start by teaming up with future nuggets to present again the sonic offshoot in the unique band, steaua de mare. returning in remix form, songs from their self-titled album, as well as extra additions, are specially reworked. first khidja take album track babadag to new psychedelic depths, adding multiple layers of guitar and synths, all inexhaustibly dubbed and re-dubbed until a whole new track emerges for the more discerning minds. next mehmet aslan is focused on the dance-floor, carefully reconstructing new track shop into a club orientated groove, aiming straight at the feet with inevitable results. on the flip, mehmet then reworks album highlight, doamne ce greseala am, amassing tension in careful, subtle ways, crafting a version that is a proper meeting of hearts and minds. to finish, khidja return to remix the previously unreleased 1 septembrie. going to great lengths in managing a myriad of details, with balearic, kraut, pseudo-disco and exotica reverberations all pulsating, here then are on point examples of remix manipulation. a perfect way to start this series and showcase these wonderful artists.

blackwater starts it’s third cycle with it’s tenth release with an ep from london based duo, ossa di mare. a record that has come from the dark internal depths of a carnal energy between the two artists that make up duo, constructed around the idea of hallucinogenic experiences induced by dimethyltryptamine. each track relates to a understanding and connection throughout the experience.

a:g delivers his vinyl debut on aquavit, with something for both house and techno heads! with the title track dobra mare being a journey into endlessly deep dub techno soundscapes with a strong rolling bottom end for the darker rooms, the flipside offers a homage to the classic roland tr707 drum machine with the percussion sounds we all know so well, accompanied by a big bass lead to remember the next day. both tracks also get proper remix action: label boss robert solheim goes deep and progressive for dobra mare, and icelandic wonder boy viktor birgiss does a melodic deep dub house approach to i wish i had a 707.

wenn der bass die mauer zum einstürzen bringt ist einem klar, dass man die platte auch in 10 jahren noch auf den plattentellern finden wird. techhouse mit liebe, perfekt auf die spitze getrieben im remix von schlepp geist.

londons deep house label music women money strikes back with a 12 inch produced by underground up and coming artist may. on her stand alone debut ep this fine producer delivers us a couple of unique, deep & atmospheric tracks. cult argentinian producer franco cinelli completes the release with a superb remix.

take it, make it, on the a side you will find again a bassmental driven techno track >techyes<, 8 minutes of a heavy bassline and trippy percussions are perfect to burn every dancefloor ! >hypnotica del mare< after some crazy holydays at he baltic sea coast and the isle ibiza peter found deep inspiration by stones and mushrooms, this brings you 11 minutes of psychedelic acid house with raw basslines and a lot of accidental sound suprises.

back in december 2012 we brought you the sounds of the unheard from our romanian ambassadors future nuggets. the compilation gained plaudits from across the globe and was even named by andrew weatherall as one of his compilations of the year. steaua de mare featured heavily and the band was instantly noted for their smokey psychedelic sound. their unique sound comes from many directions. they bring elements of prog, dub, psychedelic rock and contemporary gypsy music (manele) mainly from romania and bulgaria into the mix.

rooted in disco sensibilities and smeared with a hint of that classic roule sound, jolly mare serves up an ep that will tickle the fancy of both late-night groovers and prime-time stompers alike.

harder techno stomper

>in alto mare< was on of the biggest italian hits of the 80s performed by loredana berte - member of the biggest artists of all time - made in italy know this song. in 2004 >in alto mare< gets revisted and retwisted in a new millennium version produced by 2black feat. wendy lewis, who transformed the song in a bilingual song with funky lyrics and original italian chorus. and once again it was one of the biggest hits in summer 2004 and licensed worldwide in almost all countries. now its time again to revamp the song but this time in a pure jamie lewis & purple music style in collaboration with the visualboys & stefano mattara. the song has just been tested, and believe us its still amazing when you hear the whole club singing the song. italian does it better? yesssss!!!
