Orlando Voorn ‘Never Knew’

Artist: Orlando Voorn
Title: Never Knew
Label: Soul Stage Records
Cat. #: SSR003
Release Date: 22nd May 2020
Tracklist:
1. Never Knew (Original Mix)
2. Never Knew (Remixed)
3. Never Knew (Morgan Anson and Luke Neptune Mix)
4. Around Me (Original Mix)
5. Around Me (Paul Donton Tribal Beatdown)

Just one month after his ‘Super Soul’ release on Soul Stage Records, Orlando Voorn is back with more lush house, disco and soul infusions that feature remixes from Morgan Anson & Luke Neptune and Paul Donton.

Orlando Voorn is a Dutchman who has long provided a key link to Detroit techno in the States. He has released on the likes of Kevin Saunderson’s KMS and Derrick May’s Fragile as well as having collaborated with Juan Atkins and Blake Baxter. His recent run of fantastic form has seen him serve up more organic, cosy and feel good bombs for the club that lean heavily on soul, funk and house. This latest offering comes, as the label says, after ”six months of pushing boundaries to make something uncompromising that we can be proud of”.

‘Never Knew’ is a fantastic blend of dazzling disco synths, funky bass and deep house drums. Soulful vocals tug at the heartstrings while the loose-limbed grooves and boogie bass make you move your booty. In remixed form it is a little more club-ready but still full of romance and feeling, with a killer bassline driving things forward beneath warm keys and those superbly soulful vocals.

Morgan Anson is a new artist who has always been heavily influenced by Orlando Voorn. He was a fan who played Vorn’s records as a teenager and has become a natural collaborator who impresses here alongside Luke Neptune, a singer/songwriter and producer from Blackpool UK with a massive love for all things synth. Their standout remix of ‘Never Knew’ is prickly and colourful, with busy synth arps dancing about the mix as the golden chords keep things deep.

The excellent ‘Around Me’ is timeless Detroit house with a nagging lead over the top of rattling percussive drums and wiggling basslines. Part filter house, party New York swing, part gospel, it’s a brilliantly characterful track that brings plenty to any party. Paul Donton is a DJ, producer and label co-owner at Bombis Records who has been building a fine discography and laying down slick sets all over Europe for the last decade. His take on ‘Around Me’ is a Tribal Beatdown with heavy, purposeful kicks, jumbled toms and loopy chords and stabs that will send the club wild.

These are five full flavour tracks that brim with original ideas and real soul.

Arsonye ‘Panama Lovers’

Artist: Arsonye
Title: Panama Lovers
Label: Minitel Records
Cat. #: MREC009
Format: CD & Digital
Release Date: 22nd May 2020
Tracklist:

Upon Arrival
Caling You
Business to Business
Laundry Love
Papers

French producer Arsonye is back on his Minitel Records imprint with five uplifting, sunny house cuts entitled ‘Panama Lovers’.

Arsonye is a French House music producer from the city of Tours who started producing and performing as a DJ while living in South America in 2014-2015. While living in Uruguay, Arsonye composed and self-released his first EP “Out of the Blue” before moving back to France where he founded Minitel Records with his long-time friend and producer WARNG. The label is united by a passion for the sounds of their childhood consisting in promoting electronic music inspired by the 80s and 90s. Since its creation, the label has released music from international artists including Billy Mays Band, Robert Quester, Red Soda and Stilz.

‘Panama Lovers’ is a reference to the Panama Papers scandal. It is Arsonye’s contribution to restoring the country public perception. As an international trade hub and the host of many corporate subsidiaries, Panama is a place where a lot of foreigners come for business and only stay for a couple of days. In his EP “Panama Lovers”, Arsonye has imagined an impossible romance in Panama, in which two lovers try to catch each other but time is of the essence in this place where many are just passing by…

‘Upon Arrival’ kicks things off with beautiful leads and inspiring synths underneath a luscious bass line and delightful keys before ‘Calling You’ fuses sunshine-soaked atmospheres through irresistible melodic stabs, uplifting piano chords and warming pads that gracefully envelop throughout. ‘Business to Business’ is a low slung house cut with laid back grooves, inviting melodies and punchy acid pulsations whilst revolving synth flutters, breezy tones and restorative vibrations in ‘Laundry Love’ immerse the listener through to the end. ‘Papers’ exquisitely rounds off this gorgeous EP with chugging drums, deep 303 bass notes and oceanic softness that’s a common feature throughout the whole release

Kylin Tyce ‘Do Your Thing’

Artist: Kylin Tyce
Title: Do Your Thing
Remixer: Perception
Label: Tessellate
Cat. #: TESS007
Release Date: 08.05.2020
Tracklist:

Do Your Thing
Further South
Thinkin’
Thinkin’ (Perception Remix)

London’s Kylin Tyce teams up with the Tessellate crew to release four slick, 2-step tracks including a remix from Moodswing label boss Perception.

London based Kylin Tyce is a new artist on the circuit with an ear for ambient soundscapes, rolling beats and intricate percussion. His sound takes inspiration from the realms of early UK Garage paired with forward-thinking House & Techno which can be heard on his releases on labels such as Oldivibes, PIV and Render. You can either find Kylin behind the counter at the London record shop Phonica or playing regularly at clubs in and around the capital where he aims to take you on a journey through both old and new realms of electronic music whilst providing a continuous vibe to the dance floor. ‘Do Your Thing’ sees him join the London based event series and record label Tessellate following releases from artists such as T. Jacques, Alex Pervukhin, Firmin and Aleksandir.

‘Do Your Thing’ kicks things off with vibrant, steppy percussion with shimmering bass grooves and layered pads underneath before ‘Further South’ lays focus on colourful synth waves, luscious vibrations through rolling low frequencies and a sultry sax line.

On the flip, ‘Thinkin’ fuses nostalgic, stripped back, UKG stylings with uplifting keys, jubilant tones and an inviting vocal line. Perception who is known for his renowned vinyl only sets and releases on DPR Records, Dr Banana and his Moodswing imprint provides a bumpy remix of ‘Thinkin’ featuring warming pads, silky garage-tinged percussion, and honeyed vocal snippets from the original

Terraforma moves to July

Since the very first moment, the manifesto of Terraforma has demonstrated that new dimensions can be terraformed; the creation of that atmosphere is intrinsically linked to a moment of gathering, presence, sharing and peaceful coexistence. In the past few weeks we have carefully evaluated the current situation and imagined all possible scenarios according to the dimension of the festival as a place to be safe and free to express ourselves. In order to ensure everyone’s health and the feasibility to participate, Terraforma has decided to postpone the festival to next year. Terraforma 2021 will take place at Villa Arconati-FAR from the 2nd to 4th July 2021.

SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability has always been at the core of Terraforma’s values. The process of regenerating the territory hosting the festival and focusing on more sustainable ways to
interact with the whole planet is an ongoing task and does not stop in this moment of crisis.
Following the restoration of Villa Arconati’s Labyrinth, Terraforma, launches a biennial
project to reforest the land hosting the campsite in collaboration with Fondazione Augusto Rancilio and supported by Borotalco and Fondazione Comunitaria Nord Milano. Around 100 trees, such as lime, ash and oak will be planted in the camping area of Terraforma.
Conceived by the Space Caviar research and design studio, the project is inspired by the
schemes of the architect Cesare Leonardi, author of the volume “The Architecture of Trees” in which he examines the configurations of the trees in relation to their shadow. Taking inspiration from the iconic performance of the artist Joseph Beuys, thanks to which seven thousand oaks were planted in 1982 in Kassel in Germany. The planting intervention, in addition to having a positive impact for the territory, will be part of a larger project to neutralize CO2 emissions from future editions of the festival.

TICKETS

According to the decision of postponing the festival, all purchased tickets will be valid for
Terraforma 2021. In the following weeks information will be shared by email to icketholders.
As you might imagine, in a moment in which all components of society are affected, the
cultural industry is struggling more than ever, therefore we are grateful for your understanding and patience. New dimensions can be terraformed only through joint forces and intentions. The lymph of Terraforma is our community. And only through our joint forces and intentions the community be kept alive. We are looking forward to seeing you all again at Terraforma 2021, it will be a time of rebirth and reconnection. Until then Terraforma will keep on spreading its message.

So please stay tuned and be safe.

On United We Stream:

The Berlin Club Culture is facing its biggest challenge in history. On Friday, the 13th of March, the whole of Berlin’s night life was officially shut down to prevent the spread of Corona Virus. Therefore, about 9000 employees, as well as tens of thousands of artists are without work and wages and the many places that give Berlin part of its identity are in jeopardy.

As a reaction to closing all Berlin Clubs and the rest of the world being in quarantine, Berlin declares its support and solidarity by getting the biggest digital club to your home. In addition to streaming live DJ sets, live music and live performances, United We Stream will be a platform for discussion sessions, presentations and movies addressing various themes relating to our club culture.

The public’s support is needed so that Berlin’s club scene can survive these difficult times. By contributing just 10, 20 or 30 euros per month, you can become a sponsor and receive a virtual Club Ticket. In addition to this, you can donate to clubs and event organizers directly or buy solidarity merchandise.

All income from the stream will go directly to a relief fund which will support clubs and event organizers in need. For the distribution of these funds, the Clubcommission Berlin e.V. has developed a catalog of criteria and has appointed an independent jury.

United We Stream will offer streams from different clubs several days a week. During these streams, supporters can donate a variable amount to Berlin clubs here:

CARL COX & CHRISTOPHER COE’S AWESOME SOUNDWAVE ANNOUNCE SECOND ONLINE FESTIVAL FOR MAY 9

CARL COX, GIORGIA ANGIULI, SATOSHI TOMIIE AMONG THOSE PERFORMING

After the success of the first edition, Carl Cox’s Awesome Soundwave label (in partnership with Beatport) is announcing a second online festival for May 9th. The line-up includes Carl himself, who will also be joined by the likes of Christopher Coe + Ehsan Gelsi, Bloody Mary, Digital Afrika, Mat Playford, Giorgia Angiuli, An On Bast, Julien Chaptal and Satoshi Tomiie, who will all play live from their lockdown locations around the world.

Awesome Soundwave is a live electronic label with a big reputation for releasing music from the cutting edge. It is exclusively for artists who play and perform it live and recent times have given rise to standout albums and EPs from a host of its ever evolving assembly of artists.

The stream is headed up by the boss himself. Christopher Coe and Ehsan Gelsi will play a live collaboration from two different locations — the first of its kind in the world. New York based house legend Satoshi Tomiie will also line up, as will Dutch tech house titan Julien Chaptal (who debuted on the label last year thanks to his brilliant LP, The Way), Australia’s Digital Afrika (whose new album will drop on Awesome Soundwave later this year), fast-emerging Polish talent An On Bast, France’s acid queen Bloody Mary and the highly-regarded Italian Giorgia Angiuli. Additionally, viewers will also be treated to the sounds of UK live act, Mat Playford, (whose last LP, Solar, also dropped via Awesome Soundwave) who’ll be showcasing his rich, inimitable melodic sound.

Awesome Soundwave stand in solidarity with their artists and, as such, have set up a fundraiser platform whereby 50% goes to the artists performing and 50% goes to the Crisis Kitchen Bali, an organisation set up specifically to feed the local community in Bali who are on the brink of starvation due to the impact of the current crisis on their local economy. Once again this is a fantastic way to dance away your woes and indulge in the sound of one of the finest techno labels in the world, all from the safety of your own home.

Dan Baartz ‘Cafe Society EP’

Artist: Dan Baartz
Title: Cafe Society EP
Remixer: Rich NxT
Label: S.A.S.H
Cat. #: SASH002
Format: Digital
Release Date: 04.05.2020
Tracklist:
1. Cafe Society (Original Mix)
2. Cafe Society (Rich NxT Remix)
3. Lift Attendant (Original Mix)
4. Sort Code (Original Mix)

Sydney’s renowned S.A.S.H returns for its second label release featuring three rhythmic cuts and a remix from FUSE’s Rich NxT.

S.A.S.H is responsible for flying the flag for high-quality house and minimal in Australia (and beyond) for almost a decade now, bringing names like Sonja Moonear, tINI, Dan Ghenacia, Rossko, Traumer and Craig Richards to their popular parties. Launching as a label earlier this year, their debut release came from key resident Jake Hough and featured remixes from esteemed Frenchman Djebali. Fellow family member Dan Baartz now follows up his recent appearance on Bla Bla, providing the S.A.S.H’s second label outing.

Thudding kicks and filtered bongos open up ‘Cafe Society’ before Baartz brings in a subtle yet heady bassline, skipping percussion and viscous synths as stuttering effects play throughout. Rich NxT’s remix of ‘Cafe Society’ then takes things into even wonkier territories with a cacophony of distorted worbles, piano keys, and mindbending stabs. Next up, ‘Lift Attendant’ pulls you straight into its compelling groove built using layers of drums, quivering pads, and funky bass, until ‘Sort Code’ concludes matters with its precision kicks, snapping snares and various weird and infectious details.
