Hailing from Detroit, Ryan has earned great respect over the years as a deej with a deeeeeeep bag of records. This EP is a perfect reflection of that ethos - with tracks that will have you covered no matter what time of night you're dropping the needle on this thing.

The A is heavyweight, peak time, disc jock business. Sarah O leads vocals to the A1, woozy, dubbed out, blissy joy ride that is the club mix of "Between Dreams." It would sound at home on all your favorite dancefloors, but especially those outside. The Great Outdoors baby: the biggest room there is!

Next comes the mighty Acid Mix of the title track. Cop now so you won't HAVE to Shazam it the next time you're hearing Mike Servito or Josh Cheon DJ!!! And the A side is wrapped up by 24 Hour House Music. A jittery proto house work out perfect for a night drive in YOUR city!!! The B side gives us a more of a downtempo vibe, perfect for life's breeziest occasions. LA legend Benedek lends his considerable talents to all 3 tracks, while Steven Grady and Noah Triplett for the EP's final track - "Love Dub." All reminscient of Ryan's work as part of Symptoms of Love, this side feels more like you're in a dream than between them.

Planet Trip Records is pleased to present Aqua Terra, the latest EP release from Friedrich Trede and Stephan Braun, the respected Munich-based DJ and production duo better known as Rhode & Brown. Since 2010, they’ve racked up a slew of quality releases through Permanent Vacation, Public Possession, Shall Not Fade, and their own Slam City Jams imprint, while playing well-received DJ sets across Europe. Along the way, the two longtime friends have spent the last fifteen years incorporating influences from electro, italo, synth-pop, breakbeat trance, rave music, and ambient into their blend of uptempo house and techno productions.

Shifting gearspeed, Aqua Terra sees Rhode & Brown trying something completely new and unexpected from them: a record inspired by UK street soul, digi-dub, and transatlantic R&B and boogie from the 1980s and 1990s. Beginning with the Loose Ends slanted synthesiser chords and shuffling machine beat of ‘Heart Attack’ and the glossy new jack swing bounce of ‘Passion Sauce’ (both featuring sultry Berlin-based New York singer Marlena Dae), Aqua Terra quickly reveals itself as a treasure chest of heavy tunes. Steeped in love and lust, ‘Heart Attack’ and ‘Passion Sauce’ are essential sing-along numbers for the warm-up and the warm-down.

The exemplar of a groove that keeps on giving, ‘Aqua Terra (Acid Frog Mix)’ is a note-perfect example of digi-dub redone for the 2020s. Keeping us guessing, Rhode & Brown flip the script on ‘Longo Doggo’ by borrowing elements from sampledelic ‘90s turntablism and blending them with a post-disco/electro beat and a slinky bassline for the ages. From there, ‘Multiflora’ sees our protagonists back in a bassy digi-dub mode, before closing things out with an acid breakbeat slanted demo mix of the title track.

Durango 95 releases his new album on Discos Tabú. He shares with the world his unique sound which has been in the works for years. This album tells a personal story, inspired by remote places in Mexico and the roots of all its traditions; with a synergy of chaos and order. An inner fight between man and wolf in a remote place, in another time. There is a strong connection between the stories of the of land, his personal experiences and a journey through sintheseizers that gave life to Durango’s music. As Robert Moog; one of the most important pioneers of sinthesis once said. 'Everything has some consciousness and we tap into that. It is about energy at its most basic level.' This is an important philosophy behind Vamonos Muchacho.

Tracklisting
A1 Aerae - Mons
A2 Aerae - Nefanda
B1 Aerae - Fovea
B2 Aerae - Phrenesis

Sales Note
Plying refracted rhythms with an exacting poise, Aerae arrives on Samurai Music with a fully formed sound that plumbs the depths between techno immersion and D&B beat science.

An accomplished, palpable tension runs throughout Nefanda, Aerae's second solo release. Following up on the meditative pulse of her debut album on Annulled Music last year, the Paris-based artist digs deeper into ominous atmospheres filled with evocative reverb decays and taut, dynamic drum work - tools she wields to Redner tracks with specific meaning, coded by the Latin framing that runs through all aspects of her musical output. Contemplating the ancient language as an inescapable part of her European roots, on Nefanda Aerae ruminates on external trials and inner impulses, and conjures a jaw-clenching soundtrack to match.

'Mons' (translation: 'Mountain') speaks to challenges, strength and spiritual ascent, marked out by an urgent thrum of conga slaps and a 4/4 kick around the 170 BPM mark that finds power in minimalism even at the relatively high tempo.
The title track opts for a more broken framework, pivoting pointed percussion around a deft sub pulse while turning up the intensity with an exacting poise.

'Nefanda' translates as 'unspeakable,' or 'too horrific to name,' and the fraught, synthetic wraiths contorting through the track convey the dread the title implies.
'Fovea' (translation: 'pit') burrows deeper into spatial design with a looming low end rumble and subliminal sound sculpture, shaping out a dark, introspective chasm tipped towards disassociation. It's a powerful statement in any setting, but the all-consuming bass feels especially crafted for full, physical sound system immersion.

'Phrenesis' (translation: 'frenzy') rounds the EP out in fierce form, building up a high-pressure arrangement from ambient beginnings with ruthless control. There's a sense of duality in motion between half-time and double-time rhythmic elements, every incremental shift adding to the intensity of the track with the elegant, impactful touch that has fast become Aerae's calling card.

Finding her own language within the dialogue between techno, D&B and dark ambient, Aerae's music makes a vivid impression thanks to the ideas and intention that drive her in the studio. Nefanda confirms her status as a leading light in deep, psychedelic dance music, making something extremely personal that also reaches out beyond notions of the self like all the best transcendental music.

A bold new twist on Everything Is Recorded’s “Porcupine Tattoo” – a standout track and the first single from this year’s acclaimed album Temporary, now reimagined by none other than genre-defying sonic alchemist DJ Koze.Never one to follow convention, Koze turns the original (a collaboration with American musical icons Noah Cyrus and Bill Callahan) completely inside out. The result is a remix that’s both electrifying and gloriously unhinged. Invited by Richard Russell, the creative force behind Everything Is Recorded, Koze approached the track with trademark irreverence, merging his warped production sensibility with the raw energy of rave-era chaos. The remix nods to Russell and XL Recordings' musical roots and is available to pre-order on limited edition 12” vinyl in XL’s iconic house bag, releasing on 22nd August. “Richard asked me to approach this remix not with reverence – but with disrespect. It was liberating. Now it sounds a bit like a midlife crisis meets The Prodigy. You’ve been warned.”— DJ Koze
