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.

Hipodrome Podcast 009 – Lektronikumuz

https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/hipodrom009.jpg

It’s time for the first podcast from the new year and we bring you a very special session from a vinyl devoted person. Lektronikumuz, Remus Miron in his real name, is a true defender and keeper of the vinyl, one of the last of his kind in Romania. Remus is playing exclusively vinyl and he is, in my opinion, the only dj still playing regularly quality Detroit techno in Romania.

The Model – Principles of Modelling EP [LCL05] – free download

One thing The Model manages to do is keep people guessing. Just when you thought you’d pinned him down to some convenient pigeonhole, he somehow manages to jack-knife his way out of it. Need proof? Look no further than his latest EP, “The Principles of Modelling”.

Ion – Schutzhaft EP [LCL03]

Despite being club oriented with touches of dub techno and deep house, this EP attempts to reach a higher, more complex and edgy musical goal: 90% of it is made using audio samples and instruments collected through a lot of years and I tried to profit from all their imperfections and limitations.

Hipodrome Podcast 004 – Dragos Rusu

https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/hipodrom004.jpg

August it’s hot, Chicago is hotter, so we give you a hot chicago-house mix. Dragos Rusu delivered us a rough acid house podcast to jack your bodies in the long hot summer nights. Dragos is living in Bucharest and he is an editor for an electronic  music magazine / promoter / booking agent / manager / dj you name it, if it’s related to electronic music he’d been there. Dragos is one of the founders of beatfactor.ro more than 8 years ago, a web site that became one of the most important Romanian online  electronic music magazines. Dragos is djing for some years now and he is a dj without inhibitions, known for playing mostly in underground, infamous, hedonistic parties and afterhours.

For the third Hipodrome podcast we are proud to present Das Komitee. He was part of Exposed Audio and Elektro.Casnice and is one of Romania’s most underground djs. His sets are always very eclectic and unpredictable, playing a mixture of electro, italo disco, acid house and techno and never following the hype. He crafted for us a mix melting new with old, deep with acid, house with italo in his own characteristic style.

This EP has its roots in the most contemporary, trendy yet not necessarily the most used genres: it flows from wonky hip hop to hauntology. Relying heavily on sampling, the EP succeeds in being a very personal (and thus, original) piece of work that attempts to capture what makes each of us unique, things like personal memories and the places we have grown in.

“95” has the sheer energy of a 1990 Romanian disco club revisited with a 2010 post-rave attitude. It’s like reading The Three Musketeers after spending the weekend dancing in Berlin.

Hipodrome Podcast 002 – Alexandru Jijian

https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/hipodrom002.jpg

Hipodrome Podcast series continues with Alexandru Jijian, an up-and-coming dj from Bucharest, Romania. With this podcast, he had shown his experimental side. For me this mix is like a very very hot summer day, like the ones we are having right now … The mix has around 90 minutes and it’s starting very deep, then as the heat is getting higher and higher, the mix is going into some ambient stuff. By the time when we passed half of the mix, the heat seems to disappear slightly as the night is coming. The mix takes a sudden turn and goes to straight up techno.
Enjoy it.

Bogdan – Human Thermodynamics [LCL01]

Bogdan, one of the label founders, launches the Local Records sound with a new change in style. After going through serialist music and balearic dub, he picks another hybrid – cosmic techno. 4/4 dancing with a disco heart, an album that tells a story about dancing in zero gravity.
