Wild by nature, the Does of the Florian Pellissier Quintet could never be contained in a creative pen that would have forced them never to cross potential geographical limits. Travelers, spending their energy without restraint to let the hard bop of their jazz wander and export itself wherever the groove guided them, they went as far as Africa or South America, from the Cape of Good Hope to Rio. Rio, precisely where, for their last appearance, exposure to a brief electric current had carried them into outer space. A revelation.
Furious strides, exhausting gambols, the Does had done so much that they could not escape the obvious call of calm and serenity. Freed from distances, and after a stop in Colombia to mingle with the crowd at the Barranquilla carnival, it was California and its Pacific coast they reached, to rest before the peaceful immensity of the ocean.
One hundred sixty-five million square kilometers, an infinite expanse to contemplate in order to fling wide open the gates to an even vaster space. A spiritual domain conducive to the search for new sounds. That of the open sea, where measuring miles is neither relevant nor meaningful, and where the only compass becomes the musical tracks the Does follow.
Beneath their coppery hooves, to the crystalline sound of the Fender Rhodes and the sweep of electric layers, the path to take revealed itself in this meditative and abstract realm they had never before explored. Invited to join the purely organic textures, the synthetic notes distilled a few aromas of sweetness into an album of ten tracks, where the FPQ abandoned written scores on some pieces in order to be guided only by the inspiration born of a newfound freedom.
Blue when they began their journey five albums ago, their coat has now taken on the colors that illuminate the Pacific coast. That moment when, as you gaze at the horizon swallowing the sun, only glowing shades filter through—reddish, orange, violet.
Departing without haste or frenzy from one of the shores bordering the ocean, the voices of Archie Shepp, Iggy Pop, and DjeuhDjoah still resonating in their antlers, the Does may now be on the opposite shore. Carried all the way to the Japanese coast by Hokusai’s wave…

A1 Stallo - Bleenthal
A2 Stallo - Wavoom (Takaaki Itoh remix)
B1 Stallo - Wavoom
B2 Stallo - Bleenthal [Reinvented] (Fabio Florido remix)

Sales Note
Swiss-born, Berlin-based artist Stallo makes his anticipated vinyl debut on Casanova Bar Records with Mifepan EP.

After first appearing on the label in 2020 with a contribution to [CBB007] a digital VA, he now returns as the main artist on [CBR008], delivering two original tracks that define his signature sound.

The EP opens with Bleenthal, a hypnotic journey built on rolling drums and immersive textures. On the flip, "Wavoom" pulsates with a constantly evolving synth, pushing forward with relentless energy.
Elevating the release, Japanese techno legend Takaaki Itoh delivers a raw and powerful remix of Wavoom, while Italian innovator Fabio Florido reinvents Bleenthal with his cutting-edge sound design.
Mifepan EP is a bold statement from Stallo, an immersive exploration of deep grooves and evolving driving textures.

Written and produced by Fabrizio Stallone in Berlin, in 2024!
Remixes by Takaaki Itoh and Fabio Florido.

Tracklisting
A1 Ivano Tetelepta & Roger Gerressen & Ben Buitendijk - Dilated Pupils
A2 Bas Amro - Languor
B1 Cyspe - Reminisce

Sales Note
Oblique returns with a highly personal project: 3 tracks from (or with) friends who all helped create/inspire/influence the sound of the label.

Ivano Tetelepta, Roger Gerressen and Ben Buitendijk already had loads of jam sessions when suddenly "Dilated Pupils" happened. It launched a project that consists of spontaneous studio jams in various formats (involving a dozen of befriended artists on multiple EP's, remixes and even an label). Six years later the original track, after which the project was named, will finally see the light of day!

Bas Amro's "Languor" shows that he, besides having an ear for reimagining classics, can also do his own ;)

Cyspe's "Reminisce" more than deserves the full B-side to close the EP off. A stunning 14 minute trip through the depths of what this incredibly talented producer has to offer!

Following our acclaimed Chez Damier release, Skylax proudly welcomes back the brilliant Byron The Aquarius. A true craftsman from Alabama, Byron blends the spirit of Detroit's deep house with live jazz energy, echoing legends like Theo Parrish and Moodymann. This new EP, Afrofuturism, is a statement of intent: four deeply musical tracks rooted in soulful rhythm and cosmic funk. From the spiritual groove of the title track to the introspective dub of Sunday’s Ain’t The Same, this is Byron in top form — keys blazing, grooves flowing. With past releases on Sound Signature, Axis, Eglo, Apron, and Shall Not Fade, Byron’s music continues to light up the underground from Detroit to Berlin. Artwork by H5 – the legendary studio behind visuals for Daft Punk, Air, and Vitalic. Whether you’re a house head or jazz lover, Afrofuturism is a timeless piece for real dancers and dreamers. Strictly for the heads. Vinyl only. No repress. Skylax Records.

Ema is back. Her artistic profile is solid. After these years on the road, each release strengthens her musical print.
Circadian Rhythm is a peaceful track, deep mood into minimalistic arrangement, as she does best.
Across the world, connected by music itself, legend Aoki Takamasa remix the previous track, into a obscure groove and dark atmosphere. What expect of a Remix from another side of the globe, a modern re-interpretation, flipped moods keeping the original essence?
Space Is A Place also complains with previous Sketches by the artist. Groovy, trippy, classy rhythm and chords compound.
Jazz In Time, a contemporary House tool. A special track that closes the record in a super style.
