Loco Dice, - A Chico A Rhytmico
Following the success of his enigmatic singles "Seeing Through Shadows" for Richie Hawtin's Minus label and “Flight LB 7475” for Ovum, Düsseldorf's Loco Dice returns with a monster four-track, co-produced with Hannover's Martin Buttrich, the man behind one of this fall's biggest hits—"Full Clip," released on Carl Craig's Planet E. The four cuts on this doublepack EP are monsters all, between eight and 13 minutes apiece. Coming hot on the heels of similarly sprawling releases from Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano & Thomas Melchior, they confirm Cadenza's commitment to stretching electronic dance music's form to fit a more expansive frame. These are anthems, but they're anthems of a different sort. While too many hits beat their riffs like dead horses and treat their listeners little better, Loco Dice turns their attentions to gauzier, wispier elements: ghost melodies, feathery percussion, iridescent timbres that flash once and are gone. These are tracks for clubbers who like their bumping subtle; they're cuts for headphone listeners who want to follow a corkscrewed groove until the g-force tugs their lips into a private smile. The four tracks sound simple at first—easygoing house rhythms, skeletal melodies, agreeable sounds and textures—but the more you listen, the deeper they get, multiplying their inner dimensions exponentially. "Raindrops On My Window," opening with clopping hooves and twittering birdcalls, feels like a journey through the forest back to civilization: a male voice mutters monosyllables, a female singer wails a near-Eastern lament, and the track's taut machine rhythms box in an unruly bassline that cuts corners with every bar, refusing to slot itself in 4s. The whole thing is dead simple, unabashedly dark, and delectably funky. "Paradiso" is one of the gentlest tracks you'll hear this year, braiding keening keyboard lines and unfolding like a flower caught by time-lapse photography. Romantic melodies meet Afro-Latin polyrhythms; Steve Reich learns to jack. No tearjerker has ever waved its handkerchief so seductively. (The track also something of a historical curiosity: with its chiming arpeggios and endless rotations, "Paradiso" provides the missing link between the music box and the
turntable.) Opening with agile woodblock melodies and fleeting scraps of woodwinds, "Vamos a Cali" hunkers down for the home stretch. Pastoral melodies twine themselves around a clean-lined lattice of clicks and hissing hi-hats; for the first five minutes, the whole thing is so delicate you'd barely know it's there. But as the song rolls on it fills out and tightens its hypnotic grasp, layering loops in four dimensions and ballooning classic minimal techno into something billowy; as it drifts higher and higher, its 13 minutes feel like an infinity. They almost are: "A Chico a Rhytmico" reworks "Vamos a Cali" for a tougher crowd; those same harps and bells are here, plucking and pinging, but this time the beat is more pronounced, the finely tuned metallic percussion more insistent. This is no time to be sensitive; it's time to lean into the syncopations, slide with the low-riding bassline, and revel in the opulence of the spongy chords and silvery leads. It's honest-to-goodness hands-in-the-air time, no matter
what the clock says, nor where the moon (or sun) is in the sky. What all four cuts have in common is that they're all as strong—and as smooth—as silk. That Loco Dice should come up with four new anthems is no surprise, but no one expected him to do this. He has taken house and techno to a place rarely visited in dance music: a zone where tenderness and force become one. More

Loco Dice has unveiled his darkly eclectic album 'Love Letters', a 15-track embodiment of his diverse production range. Featuring the latest single 'We're Alive', the most highly anticipated record of his recent sets.
Dice's third studio album after '7 Dunham Place' and 'Underground Sound Suicide' sees him reflecting on his musical influences and connections to Dusseldorf and beyond. The album is packed with the producer's typically forceful tones, which blur the lines between house and techno. Utillising the bristling sounds and smooth drum beats, Dice's "Love Letters" album serves as an aural embodiment of the tones which make his sound so unique.
Throughout 'Love Letters', Dice uses his own vocals more frequently than on previous albums, which makes the production both trippier and more personal, representing past and present.
Addressing his listeners via special sleeve inside the 3x12" vinyl album edition, Dice writes:
"It's been a while since I've released anything in the form of an album. This time everything happened differently than my previous albums where I had the story or the concept first and where the music was my soundtrack to that story. This time the music came first - making and collecting music, having a good time in the studio without any pressure. It was not clear at all what to do with all this. To release it or not, if I have club 12" singles, or if I should just keep everything… but it felt good.
I looked around me and started to let only positive vibes into my surroundings and after I finished producing the 1st single "Roots", everything came together. The missing link was there. It was clear to me that this is an album that belongs on my label, Desolat. The music on "Love Letters" is filled with the positive energy and love that I have received around the world. Every piece on this album is like a mini letter. A Love Letter."
With a trio of collaborations on the album, Dice drafts in Serious Klein on "Selflove", Willam Djoko on "Out Of Reach" and Eddie Fowlkes on "D Town Playaz". As someone who is deeply influenced by genres like soul & funk, Dice invited German-based artist Serious Klein - who's work he has been following for the past while, to his Daddyscrib studio and a perfect blend was formed that was not only basted on their mutual African roots. When "Out Of Reach" began to take shape, it was clear for Dice that only the Amsterdam's finest - William Djoko, could provide the final shape he envisaged on the release. The third feature on the LP comes from Detroit godfather Eddie Fowlkes on the appropriately named "D Town Playaz", which features both of the artists' vocals and serves as a teaser for the things to come.
Continuing to headline the biggest clubs and festivals around the world, Loco Dice has directed his endless passion and musical sensibilities to bare upon his Desolat label, with a stream of records released from some of the most exciting artists around and supported by DJs across the globe.

loco dice - $lammer (DJ T-1000 Remix)
Desolat’s Loco Dice joins the roster of Martinez Brothers Cuttin’ Headz label this April with ‘$lammer’, backed with a remix from Detroit Techno veteran DJ T-1000. Du¨sseldorf’s Loco Dice has long been one of the most respected figures in contemporary electronic music with releases over the years on leading labels like Cocoon, Cadenza, Ovum and of course his own Desolat as well as a heavy touring schedule taking him across the globe year in year out. Here though we see Dice offering up his new single courtesy of Cuttin’ Headz, a platform the Martinez Brothers and associates to deliver high octane, dance floor focused House and Techno. The original mix of title track ‘$lammer’ leads with spiralling brass like bass tones, flute licks, shuffled shakers and resonant synth hooks running alongside a bumpy bass line and an amalgamation of heady, processed vocal lines. Following is Detroit’s DJ T-1000 stepping up on remix duties, stripping back the aesthetic of the original to lay focus on robust rhythms and various vocal refrains from the original whilst chugging bass and tension building atmospherics gradually unfold throughout.

Info:
Desolat label boss Loco Dice kicks off 2018 in fine style with a huge new single which sees the him reflecting on his musical roots and his connection to Dusseldorf, Detroit and beyond, whilst giving a taster for a brand new long player to come later in the year.
Dice’s recent past has seen the master of robust house and techno funk serve up killer remixes of Moby’s classic ‘Go’ and release his Underground Sound Suicide album, whilst continuing to headline the biggest clubs and festivals around the world. At the same time, he has directed his endless passion and musical sensibilities to bare upon his Desolat label, with a stream of records released from some of the most exciting artists around and supported by Djs across the globe. Now though the stage is set for the first new Loco Dice original recording in some time and it is sure to see him once more at heart of the global scene.
The bristling ‘Roots’ is a typically forceful track that blurs the lines between house end techno. It has twitchy synths bringing the energy to hurried drums as smooth chords add real soul. The claps are coarse & edgy, whilst Dice’s own dark vocals bring a brooding atmosphere and the whole thing is a synapse firing rave-up that cannot fail to detonate any dance floor. An instrumental is also included for even more visceral thrills.
This timely new single is the lead track from Dice’s latest album project, entitled ‘Love Letters’ and to be released later in 2018. More

Short info:
'Underground Sound Sucide' is the most recent album from Loco Dice, it followed up 2008's landmark '7 Dunham Place' and proved once again that the Du?ssledorf based artist is in a class of one.
The Ultra Music released LP featured collaborations with artists like Just Blaze, Neneh Cherry, Miss Kittin, Chris Liebing and Giggs amongst others and showcased Dice's versatility with influences from techno to hip hop and beyond. Underpinning it all the album retained Loco Dice's chunky, bass driven feel and has made its way into many top DJ sets ever since release on October 30th last year.
Now Desolat boss Loco Dice is releasing an exclusive boxset of the album on vinyl, including a host of new remixes and limited edition items.
The reason this project is happening is because Desolat is a label that still prizes the physical format and inherent value of vinyl. As such, the whole thing, entitled the Underground Sound Suicide Box, is to be pressed to vinyl for a full physical release that will allow the exquisite sound design and rich detail to really shine.
The fine original cuts are being pressed across four 12" records, and on top of that, four separate remix EPs will also be included featuring classy reworks of the material by established names from the worlds of house and techno including Nightmares On Wax, Henrik Schwarz, Kenny Dope Gonzalez, Kerri Chandler, Martin Buttrich, Robert Hood and Timo Maas among others.
On top of this, there is a custom made diamond shape metal USB stick containing all the material and bonus tracks along with four music videos to 'Get comfy', 'Keep it Low', 'Party Angels' and 'Sending This One Out'. The set also ships with a custom designed slipmat. All in all this exclusive material is packed in a handmade box and is available only as the DESOLAT USS BOX.
This collection is a must own piece for wax lovers and fans of Loco Dice, but also for fans of contemporary, club owning house and techno.

A1. Auxotox A2. Detox B1 Neurotox B2. Retox
Following nearly a year of relentless touring, the Desolat co-founder is ready to drop an exciting new collection of tracks that ooze his musical heritage and customary meticulous style. Collectively they provide a timely reminder why he is one of the most in-demand artists on the planet.
Possessing an abundance of touring experience means Dice is more than aware of what will make a party click. This coupled with a carefully bred studio-nous has resulted, expectantly, in a release brimming with dance-floor bombs. The EP kicks off with "Auxotox" which offers a chugging rhythm; bouncy bass-line alongside a maniacal sample that is gives a haunting early-hours feel. A staccato pulsating synth burst then elevates the track up through the energy levels. This tune has peak-time stamped all over it and will no doubt find its way into the record boxers of many an artist looking for that tool to send the party in the stratosphere. "Detox" starts where "Auxotox" leaves off. An aggressive in-your-face bass drum providing the foundation for a sharp vocal sample that continues to galvanise throughout the track. The layers to the track build effortlessly before a bongo inspired loop serves to pick up the pace before a jumpy percussion adds an extra dimension. Not much respite in this track barring the well placed breakdown that harks back to Dice's Hip-Hop past. A great addition that is the genesis of fantastic brass section that is sure to raise the roof. "Neurotox" is unquestionably the more techno affair. A warbling synth gets to work immediately, and is underpinned by a punchy big room bass line. The tracks driving nature is balanced by delicate rising synths that are sure to please fans of more musical techno. The EP ends with "Retox" which possesses a dark and steady groove. An entrancing opening gives way to a shimmering synth and extra-terrestrial top line. The delicate drums get more intricate and accompany a subtle Latin guitar riff that adds to the mysterious nature of this musical adventure. Loco Dice's ability to hold the attention of, and energise a dance-floor remains one of his key assets as a performer. With the tour de force that is the 'Toxic EP' serving up a selection of productions that cater the multitude of situations a club can throw up, it appears Dice is as prepared as ever to enthral house and techno music aficionados.
Enjoy!

The delicate drums get more intricate and accompany a subtle Latin guitar riff that adds to the mysterious nature of this musical adventure. Loco Dice's ability to hold the attention of, and energise a dance-floor remains one of his key assets as a performer. With the tour de force that is the 'Toxic EP' serving up a selection of productions that cater the multitude of situations a club can throw up, it appears Dice is as prepared as ever to enthral house and techno music aficionados.
Enjoy!

Loco Dice, - Knibbie Never Comes Alone
Following on from the recent return of Mathew Jonson to Minus, ‘Knibbie Never Comes Alone’ sees old associate Loco Dice release on the label for the first time since 2006. In the meantime, the Tunisian-born, Dusseldorf-based producer has found a home for his often dubby, sometime tribalistic records on imprints like Cadenza, Cocoon and Ovum as well, of course, as his own esteemed outpost, Desolat. Having found time to get back in the studio with long-time studio collaborator Martin Buttrich despite continuing to curate dancefloor soundtracks around the world each and every weekend, Dice explores an abstract and cerebral techno template with his latest offerings. The opening 90 seconds of the A is all sparse atmosphere, static crackles and weird effects with just a sole note played over and over. The pulsing of a deep sine wave hints at what to come, and when that’s expanded on with a kick drum and bobbling bassline the whole thing begins to come alive. More life is breathed into the bleak landscape with the sounds of various robot activities, and the mystery of the bell-like melody which hangs in the air is never really explained before the last third of the track when the momentum really builds and claps and hats help drive the whole thing forward. The eventual groove which reveals itself in the A side is extrapolated with the B: ‘Loose Hooks’ is a deeply burrowing affair with an extra heavy kick hitting ever four bars to give things an air of extra insistency. Above that, various dynamic samples shoot about like fire-flies in a night sky and all the while the train track rhythm builds up more and more steam until eventually it dissipates to only the sounds of an over worked circuit board. Maintaining his sense of bold and chunky rhythm, then, but finishing things with classic motifs of Minus in mind, Dice has made for an assured homecoming.

2. LLovizna (Loco Dice Remix) 06:08
3. Llovizna (Francisco Allendes & Felipe Venegas Rework) 07:05
Short Info:
The marvellous Chilean blooded "Llovizna", produced by the talented Felipe Venegas & Francisco Allendes was originally released in 2009 on Cadenza 40th vinyl release. We are delighted to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its publication with a crisp remix by the mighty Luciano and a rework hot off the press by its original writers. Furthermore, there will be another heavyweight remixer,a big surprise and an appreciated comeback: Loco Dice need no introduction, and his remix of this Cadenza classic leaves us speechless. A magnificent bond of the original latin vibes and astonishing peak-time sound manipulation with a relentless pace. The remixes and the rework will be released both on a vinyl E.P. and in digital format.
"Llovizna" is a track with an indissoluble bound with Cadenza's South America roots, a bound perpetually fortified by the origin of many of the artists involved with the label, and by the choice to host amazing massive events in Chile and in the rest of the continent. A funky bass line and full- bodied reverberating jazz drums make out Luciano's bubbly and shiny remix. The cutting edge climactic sequencing of its synthesisers and the seasoned use of percussive breaks and fills exalt the emotional interlude of the folkloric female Latin chant, just before a fully fledged dancefloor oriented restart.
The rework delivered by Felipe and Francisco starts off banging with a resolved bass drum, rattling shakers and fierce hi-hats. Subtle melodies slowly raise from its minimalistic framework revealing in advance all the sweetness of its Andean singing. A majestic rework, which resonates far beyond from a dj tool aftertaste.

Shimza - MSC
Tracklist 12":
A1. Eminence
A2. Dancefloor Keeper
A3. Warrant for Arrest
B1. Kunye feat. Kususa
B2. MSC
Short Info:
Shimza, one of South-Africa’s shining talents, makes his return to Cadenza with ‘Eminence’, a burning compound of profound percussions and late-night rapturing synths. This Gauteng-born artist is one of the most celebrated African electronic musicians and has garnered the reputation of the “Effect Master” and “Vinyl Assassin” for his technical prowess and intricate mixing abilities.
The vibrating drums and persistent arpeggios of ‘Eminence’ make for a captivating peak-time anthem, offering the nostalgic essence of Detroit’s late-nineties splendour. As the EP journeys to ‘Dancefloor Keeper’, the slick trance-inspired stabs and permeating bassline expose its ominous nature as it swells to a seismic drop. On the B-side, Shimza expresses his creative flare with ‘Kunye’; a hypnotic cut that blends the spirit of futuristic synthwave with the soul of African tribalism.
‘Warrant For Arrest’ is a charged number, driven by a snappy compressed kick drum and chiming sequences. As its percussive forces fall away to the second break, a monstrous siren and obscure vocal cuts take focus, guiding it to its summit. The penultimate offering ‘MSC’, is a euphoric gem that flows with expressive phrases and evolving synth pads. The EP’s digital-only bonus track ‘Mirrors’ shuffles effortlessly with a funk-tinged riff, maintaining a high voltage pace, closing the EP in an emphatic manner.
Shimza has been on a mission to make 2019 his biggest year to date. Launching his One Man Show concept in Soweto in 2009 to help raise funds for underprivileged children, the project has now matured into an annual event that draws in over 25,000 people each year, hosting some of the country’s most in-demand artists, such as AKA, Black Coffee and Black Motion. The show has seen
international editions in France, Spain and Portugal and has helped position Shimza as one of South Africa’s greatest musical exports.
Catching the attention of Rumor’s boss Guy Gerber, Shimza celebrated his Ibiza debut at Destino’s Closing Party alongside Luciano in 2016, returning to the iconic White Isle venue a further four times. In recent years, he delivered explosive performances at RESISTANCE Cape Town and Boiler Room Johannesburg, and has since extended his pioneering sound to global audiences across New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam and Manchester. Receiving high praise for his first release on Cadenza Records in 2017 with ‘Ascendent’, Shimza’s emphatic return to the imprint with ‘Eminence’ only reinforces his stellar production abilities, as he readies fans for a summer of new music and inspiring performances.

Info:
Fausto Messina is a veteran dj and producer from Treviso, a small town on the plain between the
Gulf of Venice and the Alps. Fausto has been releasing music for more than 10 years and “Pica Pica”
is his debut E.P. on Cadenza.
In the track named “Pica Pica” a recurrent evocative voluminous chord is convoyed by a classy
powerful kick drum and an organic symphony of fluffy percussions and metallic bonks, with a
triumphant layer of dense whistles and shimmering cymbals.
The extremely intense vibrant rhythms of “Idiophono” contrast with the gentle reverberating
harmonies of an ensemble of struck idiophones, angelically flowing in the background of the track.
The smooth magnetic flux of “Planets Ballet” concludes the E.P. with high style. This jacky stride

Info:
Shimza, real name Ashley Raphala, is one of South Africa's brightest young talents.
"Ascendent", his 4 tracks debut E.P. on Cadenza reveals solid production skills and
an innate instinct for peak-time bangers. The opening track, "Congo Congo" is a
dark ride over abysmal tom-tom drums, lively percussions and a gloomy bass lead,
ignited dramatically by an ensemble of wide synthetic stabs and chords. In its "Dub-
Mix", the drums and the percussion become lighter without diminishing its dynamic
tension. The overall weight of the leads and the stabs is reduced, leaving more space
to its intense piano and string chords and swinging sub bass. "Shimza - Secret
Melodies" starts with an obscure bass line, but the intense twist of fractioned rolls
and arpeggios bring an ascending piano progression that quickly blooms into an
uplifting symphony. "Selector" is a deeper cut that keeps the gaze on the dancefloor:
the incessant hand clapping and a cloud of low frequencies bumps unexpectedly
drag its hypnotic harmonies into a breath-taking drop. More

A. Tales of Roots
B. Makha Poetry
Info:
Swiss-based, Jamaican producer Ezikiel returns to Cadenza for his another outing,
this time dropping the ‘Tales Of Roots’ EP. With this new EP he demonstrates his
flair for the musical side of club compositions, imbibing his productions with sultry
atmospherics, deep emotion and organic keys and strings.
The title track ‘Tales of Roots’ is a 15-minute opus, which unravels slowly but
surely, working from a soft yet persistent bassline and a hypnotic rhythm. Samples of
tribal singers add a distinct human element, entrancing you with their organic
vibrations. As the voices continue to sing out you’re transported to a vibrant sub-
Saharan landscape, captivated by the irresistible guitar riff…
On the flip we have ‘Makha Poetry’, a more experimental workout with a variety of
warped and twisted effects spluttering and wobbling away at its foundation. The
jaunty yet slightly eerie low end gives this track a naughty allure, as those strange
bleeps and whirrs continue to bounce in and out of the background. There’s a
controlled restraint about ‘Makha Poetry’ which gives it a devastating simplicity and a
very unique aesthetic. More

Info:
Pablo Cahn is a talented producer hailing from and currently residing in Bogota,
Colombia. "Soul Rain" is his third release on Cadenza, and it comes with a massive

The original mix of Pablo is a long attractive dance floor tune textured by an

harmonies and resonances arise from the rhythmic grounds, shining over a blissful

A. Esperanza (Luciano Flow Latino Mix)
B. Esperanza (David Morales Red Zone Mix)
Info:
Cadenza´s head honcho Luciano teams with House music legend David Morales
up for “Esperanza” a long awaited release that will fire up the summertime. David
and Luciano composed the track together but then each one refined his own personal
mix.
Luciano ´s “Flow Latino Mix” is a long tribalistic ground moving crescendo with a
sub-frequency dense kick and sparkling nuyorican flavoured percussions. The hand
drums ensemble ride a magnetic bass provoking a state of hypermnesia slowly

down a feeling of positive trust and spiritual healing.
David Morales' "Red Zone Mix" is a lengthy dramatic ascension with a darker
feeling. Stretched textures are the background of a constellation of scattered
percussions, over which fast paced hi-hats subliminally introduce evocative strings

A. Esperanza (Luciano Flow Latino Mix)
B. Esperanza (David Morales Red Zone Mix)
Info:
Cadenza´s head honcho Luciano teams with House music legend David Morales
up for “Esperanza” a long awaited release that will fire up the summertime. David
and Luciano composed the track together but then each one refined his own personal
mix.
Luciano ´s “Flow Latino Mix” is a long tribalistic ground moving crescendo with a
sub-frequency dense kick and sparkling nuyorican flavoured percussions. The hand
drums ensemble ride a magnetic bass provoking a state of hypermnesia slowly
reaching a climax of celestial chords. This subtle spectral progression finally breaks
down a feeling of positive trust and spiritual healing.

A. Audion's Backward Melody Remix
B. Moffa X Troxler LSOS LOVE/GOD Mix
Short info:
Originally released in 2014, Luciano's 'The Great Amael' is an enchanting and endearing trip; a lo-fi bubbling groove and dusted Hammond organs that hustle along whilst live percussion cuts through the oceanic atmospherics. Two years on, and Cadenza Music call upon a brace of remixers to provide fresh and unique interpretations of this hidden gem in Luciano's catalogue.
Having recently released his first album in over 10 years, Matthew Dear AKA Audion boldly steps up to the mantle and stamps his intelligent techno sound all over 'Amael' in the first of our remixes. Cutting a sprightly pace from the off, Audion melts stuttering sine waves and bulging tones over concrete beats, tweaking in the original organ riff and fathoms deep pads whilst adding additional vocal refrains as he playfully teases the arrangement before dropping a superb riff in his 'Backward Melody' Remix, which takes a most psychedelic and unexpected twist!
Two other musical heavyweights collaborate on the second of the remixes; Phil Moffa and Seth Troxler are no studio strangers, having released a joint project on the British Hypercolour label last year, and remixed for Tiga a few months back. Their LSOS LOVE/GOD Remix builds from ambient beginnings, save for a rhythm carved out of spongy electronics, a sturdy beat kicking in and setting the controls destination unknown, as the duo steer through breathy vocal cuts and propelling bass, stripping the remix back before leaping back into hyperspace with some adventurous and dubbed out vibes, before coming back down for landing with those unmistakable pads from Luciano's original.
A fitting remix package that brings together four of the electronic music scene's most dynamic talents, Luciano's music is given that extra special touch by respected and like minded individuals that will continue it's work on the more discerning dancefloors this Autumn.

Tracklist 12":
A. Solitaire B1. Mystic B2. Mystery
Short info:
Philippe Quenum returns to Cadenza Music with 'Solitaire', some thirteen years after helping kick start the Swiss label with the 2003 release 'Orange Mistake'/'Funky Dandy'. This groundbreaking single, co-produced with Luciano, has since become a landmark release, not just for the label, but also as the benchmark for the micro-house and minimal tech-house genre that developed over the decade.
With a music career than spans back to the mid-80s (dancing in NYC as part of the breakdance troupe, The Magnificent Force), Quenum found his forte with house music, both as a DJ, and as a producer and label owner. Setting up the Access 58 label in 1998 as a platform for his music and collaborations, Quenum has consistently released over the years for labels like Crosstown Rebels, Soma, alphahouse, Thema and Trapez LTD.
'Solitaire' finds Quenum on fine form; on the lead track, dubby FX and bass shaking shots roll out over an urgent disco beat, muted brass and technoid stabs fire from all directions as the tension building pads flourish. Shadowy forces are at play on 'Mystic'; discordant sounds echo and bellow over reverberating percussion and a dense back beat that fire into life with shuffling hi-hats. Wrapping up this welcome return to the label is 'Mystery'; whipping snares and industrial clangs rumble over the urgent drums for more hypnotizing dancefloor work from Philippe!

A1. Luciano - Orion (Luci's Travel) B1. Felipe Venegas - ALMA Gama B2. Diego Errázuriz - ALMA Piano
Short info:
Electronic music has always had a special affiliation with space, and the sounds of the cosmos. An inherent love of all things sci-fi, galactic and otherworldy has always been a common thread, especially with techno producers, and so it's always a pleasure to come into greater contact with the science of these sounds when creating new music.
Project ALMA is a new collaboration between Luciano's Cadenza Records label and the ALMA Sounds initiative that bridges two sets of individual passions; that of Luciano's love for music, and ALMA astronomer Antonio Hales' love of the universe. Their 20 years + relationship has finally had the opportunity to cross paths, and Luciano, alongside fellow producers Felipe Venegas and Diego Errázuriz, have produced this special release using sounds collected from the ALMA resource library.
Each producer worked with various source sounds, incorporating these planetary samples into their compositions; Luciano takes us on a trip to Orion in his own inimitable style, whilst Felipe Venegas goes deeper with a truly spatial piece. Diego Errázuriz opts for a beatless excursion that marrys soft and atmospheric piano to the planetary tones.
The ALMA observatory is an astronomical interferometer of radio telescopes in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. The collection of 66 telescopes provides an insight into star birth, and detailed imaging of local star and planet formations, by observing millimeter and submilimeter wavelengths.
ALMA Sounds is an initiative that seeks to interpret and decode the frequencies of the Universe, transforming them into sounds that can then be used by artists around the world to compose, share and create a community united around a search that has captivated humans for thousands of years.
Feedback:
Reboot - Wonderful!
Basti (Tiefschwarz) - 10/10!
Robbie Akbal (Get Physical) - Amazing record, massive!
Shane (Fish Go Deep) - All three tracks are full of interesting sounds and shapes
gAs (Cadenza) - Super nice atmosphere
John Tejada - Nice EP, enjoying ALMA Gama
Nick Warren - ALMA Gama is very cool
Cesar Merveille - Great project and music
Bushwacka - Orion for me, great

Tracklist 12":
A1. Venus (Sebastian Mullaert Remix Phaze One)
A2. Venus (Sebastian Mullaert Remix Phaze Two)
B. U Special feat. JAW (Brett Johnson Remix)
Short info:
Swiss DJ & producer, Mirko Loko, continued to indulge in his intergalactic persuasions on last year's long player "Comet Plan". Released on Cadenza, Mirko's second album was enthusiastically received and picked up many fans for its collection of blissfull and wide-eyed electronica and techno sounds. Featured guests on the album included dOP's vocalist, JAW, and Francesco Tristano.
12 months on, and "Comet Plan" gets revisited and remixed by two stellar names from the electronic dance community.
Sebastian Mullaert is well known for partnership with Marcus Henriksson as Minilogue, the Swedish duo responsible for killer albums & singles for the likes of Cocoon, Silver Planet and Wagon Repair. Mullaert plumps for a solo remix of "Venus" of epic proportions, split into two versions; "Phaze One" and "Phaze Two". An organic trip through the cosmos, Mullaert tweaks and teases over two seductively trippy versions, showing us a master class in minimal electronics.
Hailing from Dallas, Brett Johnson has become synonymous with masterful jackin house music via singles for Derrick Carter's Classic, DJ Sneak's Magnetic, Freerange and Visionquest. Brett tackles "U Special" featuring JAW, and turn in a very tasty Remix and Instrumental version. Soulful, spacey and groovy in equal doses, Brett delivers the goods in abundance on these mixes.
A tight remix package that bows respectfully to Mirko's original visions, and a timely reminder, to the uninitiated, to check out the album for further inspection.

Tracklist 12":
A. Dopeman B1. Anando B2. TH01
Short info:
Sebastian Fiegen rolls out his debut solo release for Cadenza Records this Spring, with a trio of excellent house cuts on the 'Theofidelity' EP. The German producer has been crafting quality productions for some time now under aliases and collaborations, and it's on Luciano's label where he makes his mark as a solo artist.
'Dopeman' opens the EP with a rolling Chi-town house style groove, a simple yet effective filtered vocal loop and sustained strings harvest the feel good vibes over its solid beats. Fiegen keeps up the pace with 'Anando', more drum led house grooves with a high production value, the vocal refrain cutting in and out of the mix whilst the simplistic bassline and woody percussion maintains the bouncing vibes.
Closing the EP is 'TH01', again coming correct with the 'feel good factor' with its use of the looped sample and lazy, hypnotizing drums. A cracking debut production from Fiegen, and a well rounded release for Cadenza.

A. Anima Animus
B. North Pole
Short info:
Spanish DJ & producer, Eduardo De La Calle, has continued to explore the outer limits of the electronic palette since his Cadenza Records debut back in 2013, clocking up stellar releases for the likes of Mule Musiq, Hivern Discs, Be As One and Nonplus over the last couple of years.
Eduardo returns to Cadenza in February with the 'Anima Animus' single, coupling two tracks of refined techno for your listening pleasure. Taking inspiration from the psychologist/philosopher Carl Jung's concept of anima and animus (and do take the time to explore this), Eduardo marries arpeggiated synths and melodic chords with a soft kick and tantalizing hats, producing a slick piece of reflective techno that's alive with melody and groove.
On 'North Pole', we get more of the signature 'De La Calle' sound; subaquatic bass and searing, melancholic strings play out over a steady mechanical beat, nodding its head not only to the Detroit masters but also to the European New Wave sounds that influenced the Motor City artists in the first instance.
Another assured single release from Eduardo that will further solidify his place in the current electronic music landscape.

Tracklist 12":
A1. Rare 007 B1. Rare 011
Short info:
Cadenza Music opens up its 2016 account with the debut single from Swiss producers, Rare Movement feat. Disco Channel.
Cutting their teeth on the DJ circuit for many years, and playing alongside such esteemed jocks as Seth Troxler, Ricardo Villalobos (who mastered the audio on these tracks), Jamie Jones and Luciano (who ultimately signed this single to Cadenza), the guys have crafted a pair of tracks that sit right in the DJ sets of the aforementioned company.
'Rare 007' combines tension building synths and a wandering bassline, wrapped up tight in solid drum groove, its hypnotizing tones carving out a most useful club tool. On the flip side, 'Rare 011' digs deeper, with cinematic string sweeps over the sparse and bass heavy kick drum. Flashes of vocal refrains and micro percussion fly in and out of the arrangement as the melodic elements give this one a real sense of drama as the track blossoms into life. A very accomplished debut from the guys will no doubt provide a real 'dancefloor moment' in the right setting, and no surprise that Villalobos gave these tracks the audio master that they deserve.

A1. 7direction(s) (Original Mix)
B1. 7direction(s) (Dennis Ferrer Remix)
B2. 7direction(s) (Matthew Herbert One Direction Dub)
Short info:
You can guarantee that Luciano always comes through with a signature tune once a year, and of late has leisurely road tested singles like 'Rise Of Angel' and 'Cachai' at clubs, festivals and at his Ibiza residencies for full seasons, before releasing the fruits of his labor.
And so 2015 throws up "7directions" featuring JAW on the vocal, a mesmerizing and low-slung track that's already getting pole position in Luciano's sets, ending his momentous off-Sonar show at El Poble Espanyol with it, as well as becoming a staple at his weekly Vagabundos residency at Space in Ibiza this season.
New York house royalty, Dennis Ferrer, sprinkles the track with his own inimitable style, a sound that has crafted hit records and undergound bombs since the 90s, for labels like Nite Grooves, Defected, Ibadan and his own Objektivity label.
And to complete this huge package, Matthew Herbert joins the party with a head scrambling "One Direction Dub" mix. The UK sound designer has mesmerized and innovated over the last two decades with some stunning music on his own Accidental label as well as remixes for the likes of Moloko, Jamie XX, Björk and a host of others.
On the Original Mix, brooding pads and spikey synths linger over a spacious drum pattern, live drum fills and claps bouncing off the bass pulses, as wandering keys usher in the unmistakable tones of JAW AKA Jonathan Illel, the musician and vocalist extraordinaire who ply's his trade with the French electronic group DOP and as a guest on recordings from artists like Mirko Loko and Guillaume & The Coutu Dumounts amongst many others.
"7directions" is perhaps one of Luciano's more understated productions; it's a sprawling and sultry journey, with deft melodic touches and intricate production techniques, taking care not to become cluttered, rather using the space is enunciate the sheer hypnotism stored within and for JAWs vocals to glide over the listener without fanfare or dramatic clichés.
Luciano feat. JAW, "7directions", will be released in December 2015 on Cadenza. No doubt anyone who caught Luciano this Summer will already be acquainted with this infectious release…..

A1. gAs - Rack Attack A2. gAs - Agogo B1. Lino Pugliese - Banging On Your Door B2. Lino Pugliese - Aniwama
Short info:
Cadenza Records displays a deft touch in showcasing new talent, just as much as it leans on its core of established producers. The 'Split' EP shines a bright light on the musical endeavors of Enrico Gasperini AKA gAs, and fellow Italian, Lino Pugliese.
One side of vinyl each, and gAs opens up Side A with 'Rack Attack', its woody hits and scattering hi-hats holding a solid groove whilst gentle keys entwine a melodic touch with a stuttering synth riff that's designed to circulate around the brain. Splashes of cymbals and white noise provide the all important drama as the track rises to a crescendo. Enrico's second contribution, 'Agogo', keeps up the ante with another slice of exquisite house grooves. The inner-city street ambience opening gives way to an undeniably funky rhythm track, incessant spongy stabs and frenzied percussion that makes this one a sure fire winner.
Over on Side B, Lino Pugliese gets to flex his sonic palette after recent releases on Cadenza Lab and Memento. 'Banging On Your Door' takes its time to unfurl; a percussive swing not too dissimilar to the Stones' 'Sympathy For The Devil' sets the tone magnificently, as low frequency synth sweeps and distant vocal effects build, the kick drum jolting the track into life with bursts of furry snares and handclaps. More ambient soaked business on 'Aniwama' as Lino forges melodious piano and clanging ride cymbals with low end sonics as the track deconstructs as quickly as it builds, tearing up the arrangement rule books to create a unique cut that can perform as a mood-setting piece just as well as a peak time genre-shifter.

Over on Side B, Lino Pugliese gets to flex his sonic palette after recent releases on Cadenza Lab and Memento. 'Banging On Your Door' takes its time to unfurl; a percussive swing not too dissimilar to the Stones' 'Sympathy For The Devil' sets the tone magnificently, as low frequency synth sweeps and distant vocal effects build, the kick drum jolting the track into life with bursts of furry snares and handclaps. More ambient soaked business on 'Aniwama' as Lino forges melodious piano and clanging ride cymbals with low end sonics as the track deconstructs as quickly as it builds, tearing up the arrangement rule books to create a unique cut that can perform as a mood-setting piece just as well as a peak time genre-shifter.
