Frame Of Mind present the latest from Dutch producer Gerd. The EP it’s launches with the metallic drum chatter, analogue aesthetics and cosmic house bump of ‘Kosmos Tour’ before exploring lovely lazy deep house on ‘Red Girl’, dancefloor darkness on ‘Videophonic’ old school Virgo-esque Chicago sounds on ‘Fractalz’. Beautiful early Detroit-inspired House and Techno tracks. Yet another timeless EP from this master.
Its been 8 years of underground raves in Berlin under the Malka Tuti umbrella. In order to celebrate it they unleash a series of digital releases titled Tanzers. The idea is to release one of these small compilations every few months, in order to share some secret weapons from those parties. This compilation presents fresh tracks by label alumni Plazmot, Yovav & Khidja, an unreleased remix by Odopt & Lipelis to a track from Linja’s debut album on the label from 2020 and the first entry on the label from UK artist Forever Sound.

Felipe Gordon offers up a new three-track EP on Toucan Sounds. ‘The Warehouse Beast’ is a mid tempo house cut with deep drums and plenty of focus on the pixelated chords that churn up top over tighter stabs that keep things moving. ‘It’s Over (You Can Drive My Car)’ is another unhurried cut with smeared synth warmth and hiccuping hits. The pick of the bunch however is the acid laced Glenn Underground remix of ‘The Warehouse Beast’.

Smooth Waves, the names says it all. For this edition of the Conceptual Moods series we get some smooth synthy tracks. Thom introduces the VA with lush melancholic synths driven by a subtle proggy bassline. Innershades provides a deep bleepy tune that obviously bangs as one expects of him. The B side starts with Guilio Gastadello and B.ai concludes the EP with a dreamy, yet groovy tune that perfectly suits the other tracks. We are very happy to have her on board.
“For the 3rd chapter from the definitive days of house music, as the previous 2 chapters is education that a lot of alleged “House” DJs and Producers are obviously lacking.

Mini-album releases featuring a collection of 5 tracks from the Sound Metaphors catalogue masterfully remixed by Anatolian Weapons. Sound Metaphors gives their keys of the label’s catalogue vaults to Aggelos Baltas aka Anatolian Weapons and this is the result. 5 tracks previously released on the labels now submitted to the studio prowess of the Greek machine. Dubbed out, tripped out, slowed down, sped up, mind blown. Aggelos brings his distinctive flavor to the table and re-constructs some of our dacefloor oriented favorites from the early 90’s.
Ricardo Baez draws on many influences. Electro, house, synth-pop and italo are pillars of the Italian artist’s unique style. The Florence based musician arrives at the Bordello with ‘On and On’. Featuring Curses, the opener is a floor-filler. Known for his EBM-stained wave works, this vocal mix is a late night Summer romp. Crisp percussion and warm bass lines usher in addictive hooks and throaty vocals from Luca Venezia. The original version follows. Lyrics are stripped back allowing the upbeat synth play to take the limelight. Cascading notes announce the flip. “Sfida Notturna” is built on delicate drum patterns and arc of string before breaking to a heady dawn. “Dietro L’orizzonte” brings the curtain down. Toms and cinematic synthlines introduce rasping rhythms and vocoder samples. The piece is perfectly measured, fragile keys ascend next cymbal crashes and computer voice. Sumptuous sounds from the north of Italy.
2023 official repress of the EP originally released in 2015 by the Swiss/German production team “Jack Pattern”. Electronic music with italo-disco influences at the highest level.
