All Vinyl New Releases - News

Hey fans and friends, the most people know his Snork Enterprises releases under his alias Laufmasche, the "Deep Lay e.p.", the "Foreign Funk" release or the "Talk like a fool" 12". He
also hit the streets with his tracks for Relax2000 records or Hamburg based Eminor, and played DJ or live sets from Frankfurt, Kassel, Berlin, Hamburg all over Germany or also up to
Peking which was really a special experience for him. Now he is back on Snork Enterprises, the first time with his alter ego Samuel Fach, which was born from his move from Giessen to
Berlin. New life means new influences, new people, new music, especially after a migration into Berlins´ world of music. Samuel Fach released several 12"s on labels like Tonkind or
Flicker. So Samuel Fach differs a bit from Laufmasche, a bit more funk and emotions than uncompromising raw Techno. His latest works combine a clear, minimal, dancefloor structure
fused with playful and funky tones and melodies especially for his new "Music don´t leave me" release for Snork Enterprises. 3 tracks with funk, power, groove and electronic soul. And
again he gets remix support from Jonas Saalbach, who already did a remix for him on Relax2000. Jonas stands for honest techno-music, permeated by powerful basses, graceful
arrangements and dreamy melodies - one might add a lot more attributes, but basically, Jonas Saalbach is refreshingly different. He constantly reinvents his music but refrains from
leaving out distinct nuances, which make his music unmistakable, which he has already also shown on Einmusika records from Berlin. So the new Snork67 is another snorky masterpiece
again! Get freaked!

After 3 hugely successful singles, veteran Spanish producer, Tensal will deliver his first full length later this year on Soma. As we build toward this momentous occasion, four hard hitting and idiosyncratic tracks come courtesy of Tensal as he drops The Judgement EP.

Marenga opens the EP in perfect Tensal style. A unique and well constructed sequence sits atop pervasive kicks, utilising subtle vocals and layered percussion to work the groove. 1 9 9 4 O N harks to tougher times with huge broken kick patterns, twisted synths elements and a darker vibe throughout. Things get deeper and more tripped out with Fano. Here, a more hypnotised & narcotic feeling is in effect with percussive and synth elements washing in and out of the mix whilst still retaining a solid drive. Delafix closes out the EP bringing together Tensal s creative range under one track. The hypnotic tripped out vibe is prevalent throughout as vigorous drum workouts keep things at a fairly fast pace.

Tensal is undeniably one of modern Techno s most well respected and innovative producers and one that continues to add to his already prodigious catalogue.

French Label based in Normandy, Planet Gwer aims to release la crème de la crème of House Music. We feel very glad to launch our label with Vanderkraft's first solo Vinyl EP. We thought "Ce bon vieux Jean Lassalle" and "Kimono Doux" that were originally released on La Chinerie's "Raw Streams" deserved to be put on wax so we worked on a third track that would fit the whole and there we go : Vanderkraft - Au-delà des Mers Planet Gwer - PGWER01 A. Ce Bon Vieux Jean Lassalle B1. La Romance B2. Kimono Doux

Great sounding new imprint based in Moscow and run by Vadim Lankov. The first release comes up with a quite dubby and minimalistic four-tracker, that is probably can be defined the crossing between minimal and house tech. This release is made by well-known Vadim Lankov.

Esteemed Techno masters Pig&Dan return with their highly anticipated fourth album, 'Modular Baptism', via their own label ELEVATE.

In contrast to 2014's album 'Destination Unknown' in which they experimented with more ambient sounds, to great success (topping the Beatport chart from more than 4 months) 'Modular Baptism' sees the duo make a triumphant return to the techno world.

It's all about returning to our modular roots and is all about dance floor music, say the Spanish-based duo. We wanted to grab some oldschoolness and add that modern touch sound wise. We've put everything into this one and haven't held back.

Highlights of the 14-track album include the sleek opener 'Now Or Never,' the hazy but mesmerising 'Vangelism' and the title track 'Modular Baptism', which impresses with its layered synths, industrial chords and fierce, resonating kick drum. 'The Saint (Job San)' - a personal favourite of the duo's offers a more euphoric, house-energy, whilst tracks like 'Mexico' and 'Let Go' take the album into darker techno territories and 'Funk Of The Moog' is an example of the album's grittier side, perfect for the underground.

The talented duo (Igor Tchkotoua and Dan Duncan) have been producing music together as Pig&Dan for over 10 years. Before a chance meeting on a plane, Dan had already spent 10 years as a Drum&Bass DJ/Producer and Igor was already making a name for himself in House and Techno scene. When we connected in the studio that synergy and crossover of styles just seemed to gel right away,' remembers Dan. It just really worked. And as we were both living in Mallorca with no real influences of trends or other scenes we were able to just make the music we wanted to make - Techno with D&B influences.' 

They've gone on to release three acclaimed albums plus remix and collaborate with some of the industry's biggest names including Underworld, DEADMAU5, John Digweed and Innercity for their classic 'Goodlife'. They've also performed at some of the world's most prestigious festivals and venues including Ultra, Tomorrowland, Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), Amnesia Ibiza, Crobar Buenos Aires and Womb Tokyo plus release music on iconic labels such as Sven Väth's Cocoon, Slam's Soma, John Digweed's Bedrock, Monika Kruse's Terminal M and Richie Hawtin's Plus 8.

Another notable career landmark came, three years ago, when the duo launched their very own label, ELEVATE, to support and celebrate like-minded artists and to help nurture new talent. ELEVATE is all about music we want to play,' say the duo. We believe we have a unique sound and the label mirrors that in a diverse way. All the music we release is music that really gets under our skin. We are all about a nonlinear sound and adore what we release because there's a lot of monotonous tracks out there on the scene and we're trying to combat that.' And it seems to be working, as the success of the label in the last year alone boasts compelling releases from the likes of Monika Kruse, Julian Jeweil, Alberto Ruiz, Ron Costa and Matador plus a whole host of newcomers.

Since making his debut in 2008, Bulgarian talent Valeri Ivanov, aka Timmo, has swiftly become a name of note within the current techno landscape following with a string of releases via some of the biggest labels in the scene, from Adam Beyer’s Drumcode and of course Monika Kruse’s Terminal M imprint. Having emerged as a core figure for the label following his collaboration ‘Violet’ with Kruse back in May, and leading straight on from his ‘Starlight’ EP which featured three tracks from the extensive body of work in early June, the imprint will now welcome the arrival of his eleven-track LP ‘Starlight’, featuring a combination of club-focused tracks alongside more emotive soundscapes. “’Starlight’ is my debut album, and I’m very happy it’s going to be out on Monika Kruse’s Terminal M. It took me more than a year to finish and create it as an experience, the way I felt it should be. Starting with more melodic tracks, going through more energetic and electric ones and finishing off with some acid. All 11 songs have been recorded in my home studio in Sofia, using a variety of synths and modules, some dating back to the early 80s like the Roland Juno 60, and some being brand new or improved versions of classic synthesizers such as the Sequential Prophet 6.” - Timmo Opening via the ominous ‘Leaving Earth’ and flowing straight into the action via the acid laced ‘New Beginning’, the eleven- track project swiftly takes its form as a balance of driving, uncompromising productions accented by subtle interludes and moments of space. Take for example the bubbling ‘Solar’ and the warping ‘Belle Epoque’, which keep the focus on oscillating synths and regimented percussion, whilst title cut ‘Starlight’ takes control and ups the energy via soaring lead synths and frenzied electrics. Next up, ‘Sonic Voyage’ reveals yet another twisting journey as Timmo merges ever-evolving leads with restrained vocal snippets, whilst ‘Vortex’ and ‘Spacefreaks’ add further energy via a medley of hefty kicks and menacing bass patterns throughout. Entering into the final three cuts, ‘Rhythm X’ brings forth further infectious 303-lines, tripped out vocal hooks and slick hats to head further into the peak time, whilst the darker ‘Connect’ throws its hat into the mix via a combination of commanding female vocals and choppy bass licks, before arriving at closing track ‘Interspace’ which lowers the tempo and switches the emphasis towards bright synth melodies and calming breaks featuring rich soundscapes to punctuate the project in emphatic fashion. Channeling main room sonics whilst intertwining rich melodies and softer tones throughout, ‘Starlight’ sees the unveiling of Timmo’s most complete body of work as he continues his ascent as one of his genres leading talents via the ever-impressing Terminal M.

Here is the first musical highlight of Enough! Music in 2017. The label owners of Enough! Music will tell the next awesome story with their music project. The following releases are bind together with each other through the same tale. Each release gets you closer to the whole story.Enjoy listening to the invited third artist Basti Grub ( Hoehenregler,Desolat, Baile Musik). Four excellent and magnificent tracks from Danilo Schneider and Basti Grub. The different but affectionate selection is the secret of the whole EP. Enjoy our third journey !

Fresh from Sampler 1 featuring Planetary Assault Systems, Mark Broom, Damon Wild and Insolate, Ben Sims delivers another four incredibly artists taken from his Tribology comp. From the 808 driven hypnotics of Berghain's Steffi through to ROD's strident 'Embase' via Jeroen Search's masterful, bleeping 'Ostinato Pattern' and Sims' own punchy edit of unreleased Robert Hood cut 'Gun Talk' this is an unmissable 12"

A total of 5 samplers will drop as part of the Ben Sims pres Tribology mix compilation project and feature the likes of Function, Oscar Mulero, O (Phase) and more. "

Sampler 3 (of 5) from Ben Sims' 'Tribology' mix comp on his and Kirk Degiorgio's Machine imprint sees Pole Group boss Oscar Mulero rub shoulders with Token and Mote-Evolver's O (Phase), London's up and coming Tasha and Sims himself for four tracks of on point, modern techno.

Sampler 4 (of 5) from Ben Sims 'Tribology' mix compilation serves up a heavyweight line up with Function, Tripeo and Truncate delivering brand new killers alongside Meat Free's hotly tipped Blasha & Allatt who drop a stunning debut.

Eine Seite straight, die andere Seite stompig....was will der High-Headz Fan mehr !!

Following on from the well-received debut EP from Gessture, Enclave Records reaches its fifth release and rounds off the year in style with a four-tracker from Spanish maestro Alejandro Rodríguez, aka Kresy.

Clocking up appearances on such notable imprints as Hivern Discs, Freerange and Let's Play House sub-label, Room Service, Kresy is an artist with an innate understanding of the relationship between melody and groove - but that's unsurprising when you're talking about someone who regularly appears at the likes of Sonar, Panorama bar, and Trouw.

Across the four tracks, we're treated to an impressively diverse yet coherent range of sounds from an artist clearly on top of their game. Melding dreamy pads and twinkling keys to fizzing percussion and rock-solid bottom end, Kresy's dubbed-out sound manages to feel simultaneously minimalist and expansive and the tracks turned in here happily reward both home listening and club rotation.

Special mention must be given to the lead cut on the EP, Think of You, which features the mercurial talents of Detroit native Javonntte. Having burst on to the scene in the late 90's before dropping off the radar almost as suddenly, the second coming of Javonntte - a man who's toured with Arethra Franklin and featured on tracks with Andrés - has been a joy to behold.

Early support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Nick Höppner, Steve Bug, Dixon, Sebo K and Gerd.

"Birds" ist Captain O'Haras erstes gemeinsames Release auf dem Leipziger Label Haptik. Die beiden Artists verstehen die gemeinsame Produktion als Prozess der Kommunikation, ihre Talente vereinen sich dabei im eleganten Spiel. Sein technisches Know-how und ihr Talent für Klangästhetik ergänzen und potenzieren sich und erzeugen eine einzigartige Musikerfahrung. Dieser Mix gelingt über eine experimentell-stilistische Fusion zwischen pulsierenden Rhythmen und flächigen Synth-Patterns: Neon-Nostalgia mal Deep-House hoch zwei! Drinnen und Draussen, zwischen Bühne, Club und Festival konzipiert.
Birds ist durch und durch luftiger Wald-und-Wiesen-Deep-House
von puristischer Qualität, ein aufziehender Sturm der die Vögel vom Himmel fallen lässt, She dagegen ein ganz fluider Club-Track, wobei Nannas betörende Vocals einen selbstreflexiven Moment, ein Momentim Tanz mit sich selbst vermitteln, fliessende Töne auf der dem Weg zu totaler Balance. Rondo, die rein instrumentale Collaboration von Ookami &
Mizo, gibt einen erdgebundenen und ekstatischen Deep-House-Pulsmit, erzeugt den nötigen Drive zum Eskalieren. Mizos Birds Remix rundetdie EP ab, indem er der ätherischen Qualität des Single Tracks das gewisse Quäntchen Elektrizität verleiht sowie eine treibende und düstere Atmo added.
Beim Projekt Haptik geht es vordergründig darum, die Vielfalt des Underground der elektonischen Tanzmusik zu feiern und dabei Inspiration auf allen Ebenen zu schaffen. Durch die Experimentierfreude des Labels, mit der gesamten
Bandbreite musikalischer Möglichkeiten zu spielen, ist Haptik das richtige Dach für den virtuosen Sound des Duos.

Roman Jones & Hendrik Zoe erste gemeinsame Veröffentlichung über
Hunting For Emotion. Mit Remixen von Popp & Popp (Hijack, Ton Liebt

REVOLT KOLLEKTIVE V-ONE is the start of a new series on REVOLT which will bring forth different faces from the label in one substantial release. For the first one we have decided to feature 4 artists that headlined our REVOLT label night in Malta at the Old Military Prison.

For the second installment on his new Extrasketch imprint, Andrew Rasse aka Butane returns to deliver the scintillating 'Sketch Factor', with the four track EP set to drop in mid-October. Following the launch of Extrasketch this July and the closure of Alphahouse earlier in the year, October is set to welcome the second EP in a series of Butane-only productions as the San Francisco based producer continues to dive deep into what he describes as his own exploration about what House and Techno should look, feel and sound like. With EX01 supported by the likes of Danny Tenaglia, Adam Beyer, Truncate, Magda, Dj Sneak, Alexi Delano and Ryan Crosson among others, Rasse's new creative outlet is set to become a quick favourite of many and a sure thing for underground quality and consistency. First up is 'Don't Stop', a stripped back, eclectic affair in which Rasse effortlessly introduces intricate organic percussion amongst bumping sub tones and murky background drones, whilst the sizzling lead synth keeps the track locked in a techno-hypnosis. Cavernous kicks reinforce shimmering hats and a snaking, meandering electro-tinged lead in the driving and dynamic 'Minimum Wage' to conclude the A-Side in fine fashion. Fans of Rasse's work will immediately be drawn to B1 'Go', as trademark Butane drum licks merge with infectious vocal shots to reveal a production born from hazy after-hour dancefloors. 'Ultramax' wraps up the EP with a quirky off-kilter feel as skippy drums work in a free flowing pattern amongst eerie vocal snippets, high pitched bleeps and subtle sonics, creating a hypnotic workout that ensures listeners slowly spiral amongst the productions methodical madness.

1/ ANNA – High Contrast: Recognition from Mixmag as one of 2018’s best DJ’s, an Essential Mix early in 2019, and a string of acclaimed releases all point to the fact that ANNA is one of the biggest DJ’s in the world right now. She arrives on Plus 8 after a long affiliation with Hawtin.
ANNA: ‘I remember the first time Richie played a song of mine in 2012! It’s been around 7 years now that I’ve been sending him stuff, and in the meantime I’ve learnt more and refined my sound. ‘High Contrast’ is a symbol of how perseverance and dedication lead to accomplishment.’

2/ YUADA - Circle of Acid: Japanese musician, artist and DJ, YUADA, has enjoyed an astounding rise since moving to Europe this year. She’s now based in Amsterdam where she holds a residency at Melkweg. YUADA and Richie Hawtin met at this year’s edition of Awakenings festival in the Netherlands, and after hearing a demo he decided to include ‘Circle of Acid’ on the compilation. With its screeching acid lines and hard hitting percussion, it’s a shot of pure dancefloor energy.
YUADA: ‘I was at Awakenings festival with ONYVAA this year. She introduced me to Richie and he asked me to send him
some of my tracks. It was an unforgettable moment for me.’
3/ Fabio Florido - The Bliss Fabio Florido is an Italian DJ who has played some of the biggest dancefloors around the world. His connection to Richie Hawtin goes back many years when Richie started playing his tracks. In 2014 Fabio became resident DJ for the ENTER events at Space Ibiza and ENTER events across the globe.
His contribution to this compilation was recorded in a focused and
productive studio session.
Fabio: ‘sometimes I’m mechanical and I need to force myself to make music… but with this track it was a total flow.’ ‘The Bliss’ takes cues from the label’s past and future : We have the 303, but it’s played in a different way. It’s very energetic, I’m very proud of it.’

4/ Toni Alvarez - That Days: Toni Alvarez’s heady and percussive track ‘That Days’ recalls the label’s minimalistic techno roots. The Spanish DJ owes his success to an impressive discography of over 50 tracks and a thrilling, intricate four deck mixing style that has become his
signature. It was his production talent that first got Hawtin’s attention.
Toni: ‘When Richie asked me for some songs to include on the Plus 8 compilation I couldn’t believe it but I immediately sent
him all the music I had.’

5/ Matrixxman - Full Clipp: Matrixxman is a prolific and gifted artist with a discography that includes successful forays into hip-hop and pop music. In electronic music he’s made a name for himself producing and spinning raw, percussive dancefloor tracks, taking cues from Chicago, Detroit and the UK. ‘Full Clipp’ sees him explore the darker, trippier side of this sound.
Matrixxman: ‘Rich and I bonded over our mutual love for fucked up futuristic rhythm trax.’

6/ Dave Simon - Methagem: Dave Simon has spent the last decade operating from the centre of Frankfurt’s techno scene. He held a residency at the legendary club U60311 before its closure. Now he appears regularly at MTW Offenbach as well as Tresor in Berlin. He is the founder of the label ‘Proper Techno Tunes’ and has released on Planet Rhythm. The tight and potent ‘Methagem’ was sent to Hawtin as a demo after the two met in 2018.
Dave: I´ve been following Plus 8 since I started listening to electronic Music in the late 90s. I’ve collected so many of their Vinyl and it is - without a doubt - one of the best labels in its genre. It felt unreal when I received the message my track will be part of Plus 8 Records.’

7/ ONYVAA - MISBHV: The kinetic ‘MISBHV’ is the first of ONYVAA’s productions to be released outside Passeport Records, the label she operates from Paris. Passeport releases have attracted the support of DJ’s like Marcel Dettman and Charlotte de Witte. As well as appearing on this compilation, ONYVAA played live at the Plus 8 label night at FOLD in London and will play again before Hawtin’s CLOSE show in Los Angeles on Nov 23 2019.
ONYVAA: ‘I typically start jamming with my modular gear and hardware until I find a loop I can listen to continuously without
getting bored. After I build from there, trying to keep it stripped with many subtle variations.’ - on making tracks in the studio 8/ Orbe - Agdam. Orbe’s music toys with the division between the dancefloor functionalism of techno and the abstract expressionism of ambient
and IDM. His explorations in techno as a solo artist and under the name ‘Lost Epcot’ with Eduardo de la Calle have earned him critical acclaim. ‘Agdam’, which features a disembodied melodic loop over submerged percussion, is the compilation’s most introspective moment.
Orbe: "I am feeling very grateful to be part of this compilation. I’ve been following Richie since my beginning in electronic
music. He has always inspired me ... so this is like a dream come true.

Following his remix of Len Faki on FIGUREX08, Benjamin Damage now fully signs for an EP with the label. Here he shows just what is defining his sound as a singular artist.

Known for weaving together the various threads in UK club music, this EP is tied it all up together. There‘s the rolling sound, so deep and dramatic, the signature that first got him credited. Then the record picks up old themes of early Bass music, playing wonky horns and nodding respect to South London‘s burrows.

On the flip we get treated to a more dreamy and introspective side of Damage‘s sound, one genuinely exploring the melodic trope, yet without losing the steady groove forward. Finally closing the EP out with a mighty roar, the ultimate track is bellowing and bustling with rhythms, like a beast of creativity trying to break loose.

Berlin-based Mechatronica founder Daribone presents a potent blend of EBM, new beat and electro on "Body Realism", the fourth record in the label's limited edition White series of hand stamped vinyl-only releases.

A wild ride into the Chilean producer's vivid take on reality, spirituality and fantasy, the EP moves from slow-burning mantras and religious mania on "Shamanic Tendencies" and "Yolavi Bahar" through the hazardous alien landscapes of "Upper Norfair" and a final encounter with the Mechanoid beings, gatekeepers between our consciousness and the universe.

Joe Farr appears on SLAM as early as SLAM002 with a remix for Ansome and has also contributed two singles to the SLAM digital series. 'Death Becomes Us' is Joe Farr's first EP on SLAM, two original tracks are presented. Tight drums coupled with warped and rhythmic synths keep tension throughout the EP both tracks are driving dance floor stompers. Ansome appears again on his label with a moody, rolling remix of 'Death & Hope' and Danilo Incorvaia is welcomed to the label for the first time, giving his take on 'Loss & Agony'.

I was thrilled when Joe Goddard asked if he could make an EP for the label and were even more thrilled when I heard it. The fact that he roped in the legendary Kool Keith to appear on one track just kept on bringing the thrills.

Here are some lovely words from Joe about this release - 'It's an honour to release some music for this label. I feel that due to the ravages of unrestrained and brutal capitalism, people across the world are finding life particularly difficult right now- both economically and emotionally. Capitalism is an insidious and elusive enemy and many people are currently turning to intolerance and hatred instead of recognising that at these times what we really should attempt to do is love and respect each other as much as possible. Therefore I support Keith's efforts wholeheartedly, and on a personal level I couldn't think of a nicer or more talented person to release an EP with.'

AF Trax's message is very simple. The far right ultimately wish for the destruction of our way of life and indeed the lives of many of the people we love. The message is love. The message is solidarity. The message is No Pasaran - They shall not pass. It is a call to stand together, it is a call to stand up, it is a call to ACT. Individually we may be powerless, but together we are strong.

If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

It's a huge pleasure for Nick Curly and Gorge to welcome Oliver Schories on their label with his debut release for 8bit. Oliver is well known for his great output on his very own imprint SOSO and gained much respect with his Nubreed album on Global Underground end of 2017. Thanks to Jansons for such a fabulous remix he added to the release.

Ltd. Re-Press comin soon....A nice new mix for "your body"!

Luc Kheradmand, under his “nom de plume” Voiski, has created a gem of a record for ara, named At e Speed Of Love His highly distinctive sound is distilled into 5 stunning tracks which feel both analog and futuristic. Diverse yet coherent, the record is a fantastic blend of positive energies, unfolding and revealing its different faces as it progresses ; ecstatic at times, and moving at others. is is music with enough depth to project your own meaning and emotions.

Limited 12” Vinyl : Numbered edition of 500 . Handmade with love in Berlin

Each vinyl sleeve is individually painted with highly-pigmented acrylic, using a single-movement brush technic, on grey cardboard sleeves, protected by a high grade transparent outer sleeve Since releasing physical records is increasingly becoming an irrational choice, each ARA record is irrationally produced as an hand-made work of art.

Editions are individually numbered, recognisable as a part of a whole, while being slightly different by nature.

Substrato continues its path through the research of sounds from the hidden worlds. The label returns with the first various artist called 'Submerged Worlds'. This release is marked out by the juxtaposition of artists coming from different areas lead together by the exploration of sharpened sounds, contributing to this timeless installment.

The A side brings together two Italian artists: Neel and Retina.it. The first with his 'Fumana' track showcases his high-level proficiency in sound design, hypnotizing us with a surgical production of dark and mindblowing sounds. The long-term friend duo participates with a psychedelic journey distinguished by the simple beauty of their crafted music with 'A spiral Ladder'.

On the B side of this release join forces two of the most talented Scandinavian artists: Acronym and Evigt Morker. 'Permafrost Melt' is a endless progression of dreamy and tripping waves leaning on a solid groove. 'Dodligt Sar' soaks your ears with its submerged sounds settings, moving constantly thanks to an accurate groove structure.

You probably don’t spend enough time thinking about how hard it is to run a record label. To wake up every single morning scouring the planet for cutting-edge sounds and succeeding every single time. To know that your parties live or die by the vibes we select. We take these responsibilities more seriously than any doctor or dentist ever could. So please know that when we say we are proud to present this amazing new release by UK artist Viers, it is the culmination of a process that would leave virtually anyone else dead or insane.

“VLVX Spiral Down” and “Hurt Me” were Inspired by the crazy energy of DIY Fetish Techno parties, which are generally better than corporate-sponsored fetish parties, although Red Bull Leather Academy has done some cool stuff. Meanwhile, “Blow” and “I’m Gonna Get” feature big vocal samples repurposed from Viers’ “deep dive” into the history of jungle music. If you enjoy this release, please do us a favor and never use the term “deep dive” again. Just say you’ve been “bonin’ up” or something.

A-SIDE
Soaked in its sunset nostalgia by the Mamaian waterfronts, the EPs A-side 'About space and future' relocates us onto the ever-moving engine of curious kicks and rhythmic indulgence that is Costin Rp. A deep sense of groove, brings us along on his narrow excursion to the ethereal - and otherworldly.


B-SIDE
With a more esoteric voice, the B-side brings 'Phil Ther'. A dreamy mechanism built around its tense releases of glimmering echoes and reverberations. As it serves genuine moments of sadness, optimism, fear and peace; the austere and raw emotions end in its kaleidoscopic manner - that is 'About space and future (Tour)’.
