In Fango’s own words: Around 3 years ago I became a father and that changed my life. This record it’s my son’s world seen through my eyes: the innersleeve artwork was made by him and the eye on the label is mine. All the titles are also taken from Carlo’s own dictionary: “E Dee” is the first sound he used to make trying to communicate, it could mean many things. “Mamuke” was mum, “Babuke” was dad, “L” (reads el) was his step brother Gabriele and Cang his step sister Camilla.

After a steady stream of successful underground dance-floor stables via his Viscera EP series and last year climbing charts with his remixes, Fango returns with his second album titled "GEA". Set for release this forth-coming May 11th via Degustibus Music, GEA is a 10-track trip of eclectic electronica panning across various moods and tempos. Flexings his matured production credits, Fango fuses rock, disco and psychedelic influences, meticulously put together on his machines resulting in a spectrum of sounds to satisfy most palettes. It’s a serenade from Gea to Ouranos, the Greek gods of earth and sky.

While producing the Viscera trilogy, Fango has tried to understand something about himself. In order to do this, he had to enter into his own body, just like Dante entered hell, studying and analysing himself from the inside, diving through organs, guts and grey matter. Did it work? Yes and no, depending how you look at it. For sure, it helped him in the creation of 3 devastating and introspective EPs, but a lot of questions are still unsolved. Viscera part 3 is the last leg of a journey that disrupted your 2016 and marks the beginning of a new absurd phase for Fango, but this is another story. For the time being we leave you with Amnios, Metacarpo and Metulla. This is Viscera 3/3.

Fango’s non-traditional journey through the human body continues. After the first essay on interior organs “Viscera 1/3”, it’s now the turn of the central nervous system to be analyzed. And here comes Cerebellum, Nervum and Cortex, three delicate operations of surgery on the inner workings of Fango’s head. Part 2 of a trilogy that Fango conceived on the physicality of music, tracks that are going straight to your heart, to your stomach and so on. In this case it’s your brain and we hope to give you a nervous breakdown. Enjoy.

The album “Tuono” is an essay on the atmospheric agents conducted by Fango, it now gets revisited by 3 of the most innovative producers around... Dritto - Rebolledo’s Action Sequence Having already gained a very early premiere on Maceo Plex's BBC Radio One Essential Mix, Mexican man Rebolledo's driving remix of DRITTO takes all the drama of the original track, draws it out as only the Pachanaga boy knows how. Saetta - Prins Thomas Diskomiks : Norwegian dj extraordinaire and space disco heavy-weight Prins Thomas takes SAETTA on a whole new journey, building from the original track with warm funk tinged bass lines, complimented by driving synths which stream around latin folk guitar elements. This remix doesn't hold back whilst paying homage to Fango's well loved drum programming as it progresses deep into layer upon layer of sonic indulgence.Tuono - Prins Thomas Diskomiks:
With a double shot on this pack, Prins Thomas takes TUONO in from the raw and wraps its around a driving bass-line and horn synth texture. Tei - Barnt and Jens - Uwe Bayer remix
Retaining the foundation aspects of the original, Head honcho's at music label Magazine, Barnt and Jens, treat TEI with a cinematic flute driven start before mechanically kicking the percussive heavy remix underway. A length mid-track breakdown spurs on a haunting vocal loop over a back-drop of droning pulses before the track kicks back into what Barnt and Jens are best known for.

Fango is a virtuous perfectionist, obsessed with mixing bassdrums, recording percussions and sampling drummers. It doesn't matter if it's a drum machine or a gong from an orchestra, he will make it sound right. His first release "N1" on Degusitbus Music was an instant success among the clubbing scene, turning dancefloors into ritual sessions. The same goes for his remix for "Aguirre" by Batongo, an ode to the wilderness of the Amazon jungle. Test his recordings on a proper system and judge for yourself.

Rubini’s “Le Cahier de Occelli” marks 10 years! Dedicated to the legendary Group-B Rally era, it was our fourth release and one of the first to elicit a certain interest from the deep-house international scene at the time. To celebrate, we asked two of our beloved artists to remix this definitive slice of Degutibus Music electronica, with the results proving why we love them in the first place. Superpitcher delivered a 14-minute oneiric voyage of “Le Cahier de Occelli” whilst the B-side received a nervous blow-up from I:Cube for “Easyleft Henri” (the track originally dedicated to Henri Toivonen, Rubini’s personal hero).

These monster cars are still roaring!

Ditongo is telling tales through samples and loops in these two tracks. Divided into two chapters each (spot the ghost-marker on the vinyl), he digs deep into samba for the first time with “Berimbau”, giving the leading role to a hypnotic organ, while the second track “You Know Nothing” goes back to funk, dominated by a fat bassline.

Re-leaf Record’s debut release ‘Female Fatale’ lands this September direct from the mix series curator and newly appointed Label Boss, Aldonna. RLF001’s timely arrival casts the perfect soundtrack to sun-soaked landscapes and playful reaches of the club. With EP no.3 under her belt, Aldonna comfortably demonstrates her unmissable flair for 90’s Progressive House and slinky grooves. The 4 track EP stretches a variety of sultry moods, elucidating a musical figure of the Female Fatale, coaxing listeners into a dance frenzy across both sides of the record.

The A-Side launches in stride with the opening title, 'Rush'. A glittery yet dubby track that borders on Piano House, seasoned with twists and turns, edging listeners to submit themselves to the teased drum rolls and breakdowns. 'Venus', a mesmeric follow-up to Rush, weaves contrasting elements of hard vs soft, joined in twain. Guided by its percussive groove, wonky textures and flirtatious whistles, Venus gradually unfurls into a synthed-out entrancing rapture.

‘March, Together’ is aptly titled for the compelling stomper that introduces the B-side. Anchored in deep bassline and pulsating rhythm, March Together drives a sense of dance floor unification and urgency, luring people closer in and filling the gaps in the crowd. Winding down in tempo, B2 is an atmospheric closer to Female Fatale. Featuring vixen-like vocals from the Berlin based, Spanish native, Yaiflai. Break Love’s euphoric downtempo offering breathes new life into the record, rounding it off by jaunting listeners into 90’s break-breat bliss.

Balmat began our journey in 2021 with the release of Luke Sanger’s Languid Gongue. Now, three years later, we turn an important corner as the Norfolk musician rejoins us with Dew Point Harmonics, the first repeat appearance on the label. Sanger’s new album feels like a natural extension of his inaugural record for Balmat: It’s a bewitching collection of esoteric synth sketches that slips unpredictably between consonant repetition, poignant melodies, and gnarled bursts of noise that catch in the ear like burrs in hiking socks.

That natural metaphor is perhaps not accidental. Despite having been composed on Sanger’s diverse array of hardware and self-written software, many of the tracks were first conceived while Sanger was hiking in a particularly wild and isolated section of the Norfolk coast. The field recording that opens the album, on “6am Beach Walk,” was taken on one of his many early-morning walks there, in which he and his dog might go for miles without seeing another soul. The album’s title was inspired by the overnight condensation covering the long marram grass in the dunes, glistening in the early light (and drenching everything coming in contact with it) before evaporating in the morning sun. Indeed, the concept of dew point—the temperature at which water vapor condenses into a liquid—feels like the perfect metaphor for Sanger’s music, in which foggy ambience is distilled into glistening quicksilver orbs, transient spheres of perfection eventually absorbed back into the atmosphere.

A shapeshifting collection of richly detailed and deeply expressive electronic miniatures, Dew Point Harmonics is both a testament to the mysteries of transformation and an invitation to get lost in the wilderness of your own imagination.

Tracklisting
A1 Chontane - Manx
A2 Chontane - Gazebo
B1 Chontane - Oolean
B2 Chontane - Isopode

Sales Note
Following up on last years debut release, Chontane returns with Manx, the second EP on his label, TANE. This five-track collection continues his exploration of sound design, moving into fresh territory while retaining the distinctive energy that marked TANE001.

With TANE002, Chontane invites listeners into a diverse sonic landscape, emphasizing mood, texture, and the subtle intricacies of rhythm.
Manx marks a significant progression in Chontanes artistry, expanding on the
foundation set by TANE001, which echoed the nostalgia of 90s and early 2000s rave culture. While his first EP blended old-school, rave-inspired techno, atmospheric tracks, and a touch of jungle, TANE002 boldly ventures into new, uncharted territories. It challenges traditional genre boundaries, delving deep into the potential of sound design, and offering a forward-thinking perspective that feels attuned to the future.

The EP highlights Chontanes dedication to capturing a wide spectrum of moods and textures within a single record. The title track, Manx sets the stage with a dark, hypnotic presence. Rich in layered textures and atmospheric undertones, the track fuses a powerful kick with resonant toms, deep subs, and eerie pads. Haunting, glitchy vocal snippets add an extra dimension, making Manx a compelling, immersive experience.

On Gazebo, the EPs A2 track, Chontane shifts the energy, delivering a composition that balances driving rhythms with a melodic core. The combination of dynamic drums with an epic, mystical theme creates a piece thats both uplifting and introspective, standing out for its ability to evoke grandeur while maintaining a sense of optimism.

The B-side leans into a more shadowy atmosphere, with Oolean blending metallic
percussion and a throbbing bassline. The tracks ominous pads and powerful kick drum propel it forward, creating a narrative thats intense and captivating.
B2 offers a fitting conclusion to the vinyl release, presenting a track that blends dreamy, atmospheric melodies with a robust kick and driving sub-line. The mystical qualities of this composition make it an evocative and memorable closer.
The digital-only track, Thumb Print, rounds out the EP with a relentless, peak-time experience. Its hypnotic rhythm and expansive sense of scale make it a standout track, perfect for igniting dance floors and capturing listeners attention.
Chontanes Manx EP will be released on 11th October 2024.
