after his acclaimed contribution to the permanent vacation 10 years anniversary compilation, pional returns to the label with the miracle ep just to reach new heights in this fruitful relationship. madrid born and raised miguel barros established himself as an outstanding producer with his great pop sensibility and attentions to rich details whether with his solo eps, his on-going collaboration with the like minded john talabot or his remixes of fellow artists. on the title track miracle (comes in two different versions) pional is able to perfect his emotive dancefloor approach with a blend of poppy melodies and his distinctive singing voice, but all passionately rooted in club music.

pional / davis already released for live at robert johnson presents his new ep >time of the gs<

phonica records welcomes spanish producer extraordinaire pional to it’s main label with the ‘xme / one night stand’ 12”. pional is miguel barros and the madrid based musician has been producing for over a decade. with a string of well received solo releases on hivern discs, permanent vacation, young turks and counter, remixing the likes of the xx, chairlift, the rapture, prins thomas and john talabot (who he also co-wrote the incredible ‘fin’ album ender ‘so will be now...’ with) as well as djing around the world, pional has been keeping very busy indeed. for his phonica release he has produced two versions of two very special tracks. on the a-side, ‘xme’ is a melancholic and uplifting electronic excursion with delicate flourishes of it’s synthesised melody becoming a real ear-worm throughout its six and a half minutes. the slower and more foreboding ‘quiet ceremony’ reinterpretation takes the same melody in a darker direction. on the other side, ‘one night stand’ is a bumping, stripped back and moody club track with ghostly vocals floating above metallic pads rising to a release of energy and emotion. the ‘slow drumapella’ lowers the tempo and alters the feel of the track, reducing its elements to a bare-bones drum track with the vocal, fx and pads eventually coming to the fore.

the first single of prins thomas coming - 5th album - first single on the new label as well gets unveiled with a remix by our dear friends from pional!

pale blue is the new alias for mike simonetti, one of nycs most infamous underground producers, paired with the vocals of elizabeth wight. the duos seductive double sided ep comes home / have you walked through this night is remixed by breakthrough spanish producer pional on man power’s me me me label. have you passed through is raw and daring, its female vocal reminiscent of innovative early electro, this is a intoxicating late night anthem of leftfield electronica. its lyrics are taken from the film the thin red line, a movie about mans destruction of nature, his world and himself. come home is equally alluring with a dreamier narrative, and pionals remix is stripped back and effortless. for these two songs, the inspiration is coming out of the darkness that is inside all of us. it sounds heavy and overbearing, but dance music is the ideal music for escape. it fits perfectly into the pale blue agenda. this music was made for a small, dark crowded dance floors, with low ceilings and high hopes. humanity is bombarded with suffering and pain at every turn its almost like we thrive on it. but we deserve better. these two songs represent part of that struggle- moving towards the light. take your frustrations out on the dance floor. throw it all away for the night. the b-side is about coming out of darkness, coming home. finding euphoria in love and security in one another. feeling lost in the best way. pale blue

miguel barros alias pional punktete in der vergangenheit bereits mit exzellenten veröffentlichungen auf labels wie hivern discs, young turks oder permanent vacation. für das britische ninja tune sublabel counter veröffentlicht der spanier nun seinen neuesten streich. die vier tracks bewegen sich elegant zwischen electronic-, house und pop und klingen zeitlos und frisch. pional, der bereits mit john talabot kollaborierte und mit the xx tourte, wird vom uk-hipster e-zine resident advisor regelmäßig in deren top 20 live performance gewählt. fans von jamie xx über metronomy bis hin zu zomby sollten die neue pional ep nicht verpassen!

remixes by john talabots & locked groove

deep groovin hypnotic collaboration henry saiz & pional

young turks are set to release another great ep in 2013, joining fka twigs, sampha and koreless is spanish producer pional.
some may know pional as the john talabot collaborator responsible for stand tracks *destiny* and *so will be now* from his critically acclaimed *fin* album - an album frequently ranked as one of the best electronic records of 2012. his invisible/amenaza ep brings the groove and audio-perfectionism of these collaborations but adds an unsettling sense of paranoia which brings the music depth and tension - *invisible amenaza* translates as invisible threat. pionals influences arent really worn on his sleeve, but the forward thinking producer adds his influences of the zombies, roy ayres, and the police into a sound that manages to work on the dancefloor as well as the headphones.

nice price deal !!! the rapture return with another 12 inch featuring remixes of the title track of their 2011 album. the a side a balearic workout by spain disco superstar pional, and the flip by the la-base musician/producer/dj team poolside. limited to 400 copies, this is a surefire hit for the summer

florian peter aus münchen, auch bekannt als bostro pesopeo und als james dean der clubmusik, hat sich mit pional, dem wohl talentiertesten newcomer madrids, zusammengetan. pional betreibt gemeinsam mit john talabot das label hivern disc, das sich als speerspitze der neuen elektonischen musikszene spaniens erwiesen hat. gemeinsam mit bostro pesopeo spannt er den bogen von 80er pop bis kraut house.

dies ist die erste von zwei vinyl-vorschauen zur ende august erscheinenden zweiten folge der von tom bioly und benjamin fröhlich zusammengestellten compilationreihe >if this is house i want my money back<. die ep enthäkt vier brandneue und exklusive stücke von john talabot (permanent vacation, hivern disc/barcelona), session victim (retreat/berlin), jacob korn & cuthead aka kornhead (uncanney valley/leipzig) und pional (hivern disc/barcelona). house musik aus dem hier und jetzt, gewappnet für das morgen.

pional alias miguel barros ist wohl spanien am besten gehütetes geheimnis in sachen elektronischer musik. der junge multiinstrumentalist, der auch sein eigener sänger ist, eroberte die welt aus dem stand weg mit seiner debüt-maxi. die erschien auf dem in barcelona ansässigen, von seinem freund john talabot betriebenen label hivern discs. die drei tracks der >last house on the left ep< erforschen eine house-musik, die von krautrock, moodymann, miguel aguayo, caribou oder grizzly bear beeinflusst ist. mehr als nur empfehlenswert!

pional takes things in stride. and we like that. despite the enthusiastic response towards >a moot point<, his debut on our label, he has kept it low. locked in his studio, with his mic and his machines, recording non-stop but being extremely picky about what he chooses to release. thats why we are a tremendously thrilled about introducing you to >we have been waiting for you<, a song that has been blowing us away since the first time we heard it.

limited edition, no repress ever! please place your order asap! after the wonderful hivern by john talabot (remember the fantastic luke abott rmx of >sunshine<???) the label comes around with a new brilliant 4-track ep by pional featuring remixes by basic soul unit and comeme artist rebolledo

matt karmil, pional, marc piñol and dandara shed a new light on slowciety s previous record: guru. guru remixes opens with a mesmerising and brooding interpretation of the self-titled by matt karmil, recalling the raw textures of the uk-producer s lp. pional s remix comes next with a powerful treatment of elephant, once again proving the dancefloor expertise of the madrid-based producer. he delivers the shamanic experience from the original track and pushes it forward with soaring percussive elements & beats layered on a 90 s-esque emotive pad. marc piñol opens the b-side with a groovy remix of guru, described by the man himself as a 122 bpm after party tool. a heady bassline loop, as well as dry & twisted sounds beefed up by karmil s work on the mastering, lead the remix to a hypnotic ride, pure and efficient. last but not least, swiss producer dandara brings his tribal touch to the sensual -utopia-. a slow melodic dancefloor piece which smoothly closes this third record.

chairlift present takes on several cuts from acclaimed second album >something< by some of their favorite producers, showcasing how their songs can easily be adapted for the club. appropriately titled the 6.15amix, spanish equipo fantástico john talabot and pional turn >i belong in your arms< into a balearica-infused club-closer. a nifty piano line and seductive rhythm take the song on a late night (or rather early morning) trip to the beach, while carolines voice is being warped into something from outer space. photek takes the same track to a whole different place with his powerful jungle interpretation. martyn respects both the pace and rhythm of sidewalk safari, yet exchanges the clean production for a rather more cosmic beat, incorporating many of his signature touches to compliment the sinister >i m gonna hunt you down< lyric. dan careys dub mix of >sidewalk safari< shows a more playful side, while arguably the most intriguing remix of the package is the fields take on >met before<, recalling his early work it is so warped and layered you may struggle to imagine the original minus the smallest of hints.

dikso from berlin drop another amazing ep ! after five super sound singles here is diksos very first artist ep and of course it will be daniel solars job to do the kick-off. his retrospect ep features the most zippy stuff dikso has released so far without being an ordinary house record. the percussion is minimalistically filigree, the atmosphere is fluffy and aniyas voice on >can you really know< comes direct from outer space... er... down under. dikso006 a1 - summer, sunshine, a picnic basket full of delicious food and wine and someone to share a walk in the park. sounds cheesy? yes, you are right... but remember that every park has its dark corners. dikso006 a2 - daniel teamed up with aniya ouu, the grand lady of >melbourne deepcast<, a blog from a few down under brothers and sisters in spirit. intercontinental and interblogospheric, interdisciplinary and... (fill in a word of your choice that begins with inter) dikso006 b1 - thee role model of deepslowmonudiscoeditchicagoacidwhateverhouse. after finishing two longplayers earlier this year he spent some time to refine daniels track. the original shines through but everything is a little bit deeper, darker, stronger. its still a walk in the park, but imagine the voices of owls and some undefinable dark shadows instead of wine, women & song. dikso006 b2 - we still have his brilliant ep for permanet vacation in our ears and synapses and now he is here with a stirring remix for prime times and big rooms. the boys from dikso borrowed pional, probably spains best kept secret, from john talabots hivern discs camp who delivers a real monster of a track. john, they have promised to give him back, later... someday... somehow

with the >chocolate bar ep< recently out on grande buffo records, space ranger are now firing up for the release of their debut album on lovemonk, set for early 2011. featuring captn k on vocals, the german outfit get the perfect mix of house and disco on this >nightmoves<, with ace remixes by brighton boogie banger blacklodge and madrids rising star pional.
