Orlando Voorn – Unpredictable Love [PPH007-6]

Orlando Voorn`s Original of “Unpredictable Love” is an great melodic and soulful Detroit techno track. The remix on the flip is the interpretation of The Analog Roland Orchestra, who impressed us again with his remarkable musicianship and soundwork.
It remains only to say: Deep, Soulful and Timeless.

Das Komitee – Dragobete Love Mix

https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/dragobete1.jpg

Dragobete is a traditional Romanian holiday, celebrated on February 24 and is considered the Romanian equivalent of Valentine’s Day, a day for lovers. The day is known as “the day when the birds are betrothed”. It is around this time that the birds begin to build their nests and mate. On this day, considered locally the first day of spring, boys and girls gather vernal flowers and sing together. Maidens used to collect the snow that still lies on the ground in many villages and then melt it, using the water in magic potions throughout the rest of the year. Those who take part in Dragobete customs are supposed to be protected from illness, especially fevers, for the rest of the year. If the weather allows, girls and boys pick snowdrops  or other early spring plants for the person they are courting.

We celebrate spring with this lovely mix from our beloved Das Komitee and wish you a year full of love and may the good music find you.

We are at number 10 with our series and we have a mix from DJ soFa, from Brussels. As he likes to say, he is a “dj and vinyl victim” since 1997, playing all around Brussels, Belgium and Europe. He is a very eclectic dj, playing a wide range of electronic music, from dubstep to house and techno, always doing experiments. Being a versatile dj he managed, during the years, to share the stage with artists from a very diverse spectrum of electronic music, artists like Aardvarck, Actress, Ceephax, Danny Breaks, Egyptian Lover, Mike Dehnert, MLZ, Neil Landstrumm, Shackleton, Spirit Catcher, Substance & Vainqueur, Tim Exile and many others.
DJ soFa is running Lamadameaveclechien, an independent label that aims to release good and eclectic music on physical formats (vinyl and CD). The label is releasing mostly experimental stuff from friends and artists that share the same musical vision.

DJ soFa will visit Bucharest and Sibiu at the beginning of April, so listen carefully this podcast to get a glance of what you will experience during these two parties.

Portable – Let’s Go EP [KARAT042]

Cover art - Portable: Let’s Go EP

Portable strikes back on Karat 8 years after his first appearance on the label. “Inside your mind” is a build up track with a proper vocal describing different levels of consciousness, and about the way of living your inner thoughts. “The Ghetto Escapes” is a floor burner, acid stomper track that never stops to push up the pressure.

Predictably jacked to the brim full of their signature no-gristle, no-glory aesthetic, In Flagranti introduces their new album, Worse for Wear. In Flagranti’s Sasa Crnobrnja and Alex Gloor have left behind their vintage porn-chic sensibilities and instead turn to yesterday’s trashed goods for inspiration.
