Genre: Techno - 12" Maxi Single - 45 RPM

Tracklist :
A1 Pull
B1 Push

Ruutu Poiss returns to International Major Label with two evolutionary,
spacetime bending dance floor hitters.
The Estonian sound artist revisits the psychedelic approach used for his first 7" release on the label (Halli / Uttu, 2016), expanding his refined palette with the use of modular synthesizers.

Pull / Push holds extraterrestrial, contemporary techno music. Off-kilter, but very effective.
These two powerful gems could easily be described as 'heavy' or 'weighty', but that seems very unfitting here. Where Pull immediately entraps us in a soaring vortex, Push takes a long intro
to launch us hard into a compelling stratosphere.

Between Techno and Toto, drop shadows and ethereal patterns, Sam Irl and Daniel Helmer
simmer their hypnotic sounds.

A1 Funke

B1 Safe & Sound
B2 Present Tense

Short Info:
The best thing about trends is often their counter-movement. In times of digital hysteria, the
contradiction lies unsurprisingly in deceleration, in turning away from algorithms. The search
for the diffusely concrete, a kind of musical memory from the infinite ocean of sounds and
acoustic figures, is at the centre of a dark glowing cloud called Mantra Mantra.
Between Techno and Toto, drop shadows and ethereal patterns, Sam Irl and Daniel Helmer
simmer their hypnotic sounds.
The music whispers with every note: we are only two interconnected home studios,
quietly eloquent through the night as an anti-hysterical mantra to all the recipients of this
universe.

Midnight Embassy is a ping­pong project by songwriter Angela Aux and producer
Sam Irl.
During nightly sessions and on walks together, the two artists have created a palette
of timeless tracks and futuristic sculptures from pop music flotsam. Like if two
archive junkies had synchronized their sketch collections and notebooks so that the
different genres and decades seem to effortlessly swirl through each other: Dub,
Folk, Beatnik literature, Afrobeat & Electronica.
Aux & Irl celebrate a gentle escapism, both cosmopolitan and aloof. This island
mentality sparkles unobtrusively through all five tracks of the debut EP. No fireworks,
no illuminated advertisements, no selfie thunderstorms: they come at dusk, set
shimmering beacons and disappear on a reverberation trail behind the curtain of the
night.

Short Info:
After 20 years in the lab Conny Frischauf releases her debut EP for International Major Label.
„Effekt und Emotion“ is on point when it comes to songwriting, sound aesthetic and craftsmanship.
Made with a deep understanding of soundscapes and pop culture, the musical language of
Conny Frischauf breathes a magical and melancholic vibe that transfers itself into the subconscious of
the listener without any comment.
Full of unexpected moves and elegant references which disappear right before getting aware.
Music for advanced dreamers. Discrete, unique, peerless and therefore a perfect match for the IML
collection.

Short Info:

The music of Giuseppe Leonardi moves through the brain in psychedelic and playful ways.
Young Giuseppe prepared his shamanic amalgamation of percussion, athmosperes and synth patterns some summers ago in the catacombs of Vienna.
Machine sounds from a glittering future.
He shifts his instruments out of the timezone and takes us on a trip in his cosy dinghy.
Tracks like "Maga" and "Invitro" are moving the dancefloor towards a cosmic universe in such a

Info:
After the last years widely appreciated 12" with two extraterrestial dancefloor cuts on Jon Rust's Levels imprint and a handful of now hard-to-find 7" releases, the estonian musician Ruutu Poiss returns to his minimal funk and leftfield synth-pop roots releasing a debut EP on International Major Label. The six selected homerecordings from 2011-2016 reflect almost a chronological and caleidoscopic journey through the authors musical explorations, instrumental storytelling and unique sound design, imaginatively non-locking to specific genres. The EP starts with a massive stadium-hype pop groove that soon descends into an unsteady bassline of emotional undercurrents just to illustrate a clear shift from public to highly private and minute. There onwards it's a search for a way out of the rabbit hole, a trip of curious naviagtion and personal reflection. From haunting vocals to vicious toms; celestial soundscapes over restless rubbery bass; shimmering synths over polyrhythmic strcutures – an environment of romantic futurism and organic transformation appears, surrounded by a warm psychedelic sound pallette. Previous releases played and supported by Secretsundaze, Benji B, James Blake, Mary-Anne Hobbs, Call Super, Omar-S and many others.
Tracklist:
A1 LIUG
A2 RAVI
A3 IHATSIN
B1 JAHT
B2 MARI
B3 SAGARAD

Remix EP of great but Massively Overlooked Debut Album by Vienna Based Band Feater. Somehow The City´s Answer to Italians Do it Better! Remixes by Tuff City Kids, Giuseppe Leonardi, Ruutu Poiss

A1 45rpm Feater Bright White Shoes - Tuff City Kids Remix
B1 33rpm Feater_Digital_Love II - Giuseppe Leonardi Remix
B2 33rpm Feater Birds - Ruutu Poiss Remix

It has not taken long for International Major Label to shake the next pearl out of the console: a sparkling spherical, retro-futuristic wink of the eye in which three spiritual brothers have joined their
musical hands together in the airwaves with label head, Daniel Meuzard aka Feater, and two of the top
notch remixers around :
Tuff City Kids with Gerd Janson and Phillip Lauer.
Their extraterrestrial instinct and a kilometer-long discography justifies developing dedicated schools of philosophy. But after 30 seconds at the latest when the bass line rocks through the kicks and
congas, the „Bright White Shoes“ remix unfolds a magical attraction as if from another galaxy.
With the smash hit „Digital Love“, the remix seems to rise almost lethargically above the mist of night. The upcoming Viennese Wunderkind, Guiseppe Leonardi, rumbles through the catacombs between´slow-tech and calimba. As expected for an underground producer, nothing is known about this gentleman; only that for months, he has been releasing dope tracks into the world and will finally give his official debut in October – on International Major Label. Preorder!
It is difficult to reach a fitting end for this release, unless done by Ruutu Poiss from Estonia. This hyped-up multi-talent, (Denkmantel Set 2017 & 12“ release on Jon Rust’s Levels) conjures up a mysterious and playful odysee with Feater’s „Birds“ and meanders between Düsseldorf, London and Detroit.

For more than ten years he has been involved in electronic music and working with analog synthesizers and classic tape recording.

musical ideas.
In 2013 he released the 7“ vinyl single „Digital Love“ on „Paradeis Garage“. In February 2015 he recorded his debut album „Waste The Time“ on a 8track tape recorder and finalized it together with the
producer and recording engineer Sam Irl in the summer of 2015.
As a member of the FinishGermanAustrian group „Skymax“ (along with StilettiAna & Sam Irl) he released the vinyl EP „Trucker Trans“ on his own label called „International Major Label“ in October 2015.
