Info:

Luciano has arranged a special series of four releases as part of the celebrations for the fifteen years
anniversary of his own Cadenza Records, launching the first one to begin the festivities. Each episode
is coming out in a different season of the year; the first one, with the catalogue number 118, is the
chapter dedicated to the summertime and contains 5 enchanting tracks with an exquisite sound. This
series is just one of the astonishing surprises that Luciano has set aside for the birthday of his
beloved label.
The show begins with “The Amazing Lilou”, a crispy ariose tune with elaborated percussions and
calypso-flavored synthesizers. “Hiding Hearts” is a latin prelude with pleasant guitars and restful
melodies, flowing with joy and peace. “Nabusima” is another Caraibic spell, with noteworthy carefully
mixed drums and elevating harmonies. “Magik Mechanics” explores complex broken beats and
electronic textures, drawing a colored narration in between a fairy tale and a sci-fi movie. Finally,
“Tirana del Oriente”, as disclosed by the title, is a trip into the Oriental ardent magic. A collection of
five long summery compositions to accompany our hot pleasing days from the dawn till the dusk,
holding our hands during a never ending daydream.

Tracklist 12":
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.

UPC: 827170485662 Release : 25.02.2013
Tracklist 12": A1. Cachai B1. Dance Unity
Luciano breezes into Cadenza Music's 10th anniversary year with a new single, 'Cachai'/'Dance Unity', released on February 25th. Whereas previous single 'Rise Of Angel' came from the heart, this brace of new music comes strictly from the mind; heady, experimental dancefloor tracks with an air of futurism to them that sets the scene for Luciano's next album, due this year, quite nicely. 'Cachai' fuses a bouncing, morning groove with stabbing operatic vocals and searing strings, light organ keys keeping the backbone of this decidedly trippy and minimal production, Luciano taking things back to the basics…'Dance Unity' keeps things in the similar vein, raw and minimal electronic drums, furry snares and an attention to the finer details, with hallucinatory blips, bleeps and haunting keys weaving their magic over the tracks 15 minute tenure. Luciano provides the call to the dancefloor, with 'Dance Unity's' lyric, and a fitting message in light of Cadenza's 10 year achievements.

UPC 827170474666 Rel date 19.11.2012
'Rise Of Angel' is the brand new single from Luciano, and the first single to be taken from his forthcoming album, due in 2013. However, for the many thousands of dedicated music fans who have made the pilgrimage to Luciano's hugely successful parties this Summer in Ibiza (the weekly Ushuaia sessions and Vagabundos at Pacha), or the many Cadenza parties around Europe and North America, 'Rise Of Angel' has already become the signature tune and musical hi-light in Luciano's sets, making its release a highly anticipated moment for the Cadenza faithful. Clocking in at over 15 minutes, 'Rise Of Angel' is an epic slice of modern electronic dance music, the simply Balearic, synth and piano driven hook gently builds and teases with cinematic intent, the light percussion and organic beats working the old Luciano magic, it's no wonder that 'Rise Of Angel' has become one of the most talked about tracks of the Ibiza season this year. The vinyl 12" is coupled with Mirko Loko's pulsating robotic workout, adding a more beats driven take on Luciano's original, and delving into the bass for a heavyweight techno flecked remix. 'Rise Of Angel' will be Luciano's first release on his own Cadenza label since 2010's Lucien-N-Luciano's 'Cuidad De Luz' EP, and marks the start of another big chapter in his career, having spent the last couple of years building a passionate audience through hundreds of DJ performances around the world, the Vagabundos events and collaborating musically with artists such as Pharrrell (Neptunes) and Lenny Kravitz. His forthcoming album will be his second full length collection (following 2009's .Tribute To The Sun'), and his label, Cadenza Records, will celebrate its 10th anniversary, so the future certainly looks bright for the Chilean producer and DJ.

It's always a special event when Cadenza releases an artist album, given their relative rarity. In fact, not counting copious doublepacks, the Cadenza Contemporary 01 mix CD, and Ricardo Villalobos' counterintuitively titled Achso EP, there has only been one so far: Los Updates' First If You Please. Making things even more special, Mirko Loko's Seventynine is both his debut solo album and his first appearance on Cadenza, all adding up to a triply celebratory moment. Not that Mirko is a newcomer: as part of Lazy Fat People, he lapped up accolades for releases on Border Community, Wagon Repair and Carl Craig's Planet E, among others. And no one can forget last year's Family EP, a collaborative effort by Mirko and Luciano, released on Loco Dice and Martin Buttrich's Desolat. Now, with Seventynine, Mirko takes us even deeper into his musical imagination, introducing listeners to a side of him they may not have heard before. At its heart, the album celebrates the communal ideal of dance music with spirited, percussive tracks offering a clear distillation of what could only be described as the Cadenza sound. But Mirko also diverges from the dance floor, ducking into shadowy corners in search of more private emotions. Rather than scattering energy, that tension between moods helps bind the album into a potent, coherent whole. "Sidonia" opens, immediately announcing that this won't be merely business as usual. With its groaning sub-bass and flickering percussive flashes, the track echoes the dubby, drifting melancholy of classic Warp records-always, in truth, a key influence for Cadenza. Bells and voices lend an atmosphere of shimmering energy that's carried over into "Around the Angel," which sails jubilantly forward, propelled by intricate polyrhythms and uplifting female vocals.
"Love Harmonic" returns its attention to a classic, melodic sound inspired equally by Detroit and Sheffield, as lean drum-machine patterns entwine with loping congas, and lush strings color everything delicate shades of yellow and rose. "On Fire" marks a 180-degree turn, pursuing a scorched-earth policy as blasts of white noise fire off slow, rhythmic bursts. Sirens and electronic squeals only add to the tension, culminating in nearly nine minutes of techno intensity. After that, "Astral Vacuum" offers necessary respite via a short, beatless passage of strings and abstract sound, before Mirko takes us once again into the breach with "Bluebook," a lean, focused groove battered by metallic drums and shot through with voices and bleeps ripped from radio transmissions. (So this, you may think, is how it feels to ride a satellite.) "Shadow" is deep and melancholic, with a booming 808 kick underpinning ragged, gleaming chords and frayed strings; its hard, mineral edge provides the perfect setup for the cottony flux of "Takhtok." The children's chant will doubtless draw comparisons to Ricardo Villalobos' "Enfants," but here childlike innocence turns ambiguous, even sinister, as the repetitions rise over a primal beat; scraps of Bulgarian folk song give the track a weirdly timeless quality, strange and familiar all at once. With "Le Monologue d'Orfeu," Mirko returns to one of his endlessly unspooling, headlong grooves. Spinning like a water wheel, limpid tones wash gently over everything, and a long spoken passage in hushed Portuguese falls over the music like a dream's veil. It's just one of the album's many examples of Mirko's talent for simplicity, for stripping back to reveal the essence of a particular feeling. "Altrove" is another cinematic interlude, two minutes of molten strings and electronic birdcall you wish could go on forever. But there's one more dance to be had: "You Know Where," which rises from a wooden, skippy rhythm into a string-laden celebration of techno at its most melodic. Having twice performed at DEMF, "You Know Where" might well refer to the Motor City; in any case, its deep, sung/grunted bassline serves as the warm, pulsing heart for this massive, man/machine mover. It's a glorious finish to an album that never takes its eyes off the horizon, sending it up, over and beyond. Seventynine is ultimately all about the journey, as it travels between Lausanne, Detroit and outlying points on electronic music's map. Mirko's travelogue bridges the gap between a classic Motor City influence and Cadenza's own nomadic aesthetic, firing up dance floors and fueling the imagination.

SPECIAL 3x12" EDITION INCLUDING FULL LENGTH VERSIONS
In this version you'll have the chance to get the the full length version of Celestial, Conspirer, Los Ninos de Fuera, Africa Sweats feat. Ali Boulo Santo and Metodisma which aren't available on the CD versions of the album. It's been nine years since Lucien Nicolet's first record, and in that time he has earned his place among electronic dance music's most celebrated names. He's racked up singles for the likes of Mental Groove, Perlon, Desolat and of course Cadenza. He's remixed everyone from M83 to Salif Keita, and his mix CDs for Fabric and Soma's Sci.Fi.Hi.Fi. series have showcased minimal house and techno at their most sensual, supple and jubilant. And Luciano's DJ sets have become the stuff of legend the world over. Throughout his career, the Swiss-Chilean musician has experimented liberally with longer formats, including a live album for Thomas Brinkmann's max.Ernst label and 2004's groundbreaking No Model No Tool, a recombinant set of groove components. But in all this time he has released only one proper studio album, 2004's Blind Behaviour, which veered away from the dancefloor in search of more esoteric pleasures. At long last, with Tribute to the Sun, Luciano delivers one of the definitive highlights of his career. Not merely a "dance" or "electronic" record, Tribute incorporates musical styles from around the globe with Luciano's inimitable rhythmic sensibility. It draws upon Luciano's extensive experience as a mover of bodies and a reader of the crowd's mind. Many of its grooves form an integral part of Luciano's DJ sets, having been road-tested and continually refined. But it's very much an album to be listened to front to back. (Most of the album's cuts will also be made available as extended edits, for vinyl and download alike.) Tribute to the Sun is above all a highly personal portrait of the artist. Informed by the ups and downs of the artist's life, and the balancing act between life on the road and the refuge of family life in rural Switzerland, its moods run from the heavenly grace of "Celestial" to the outright madness of "Metodisma." This is the fullest portrait yet of Luciano as not just an artist but a human being. Four years in the making, the album finds Luciano collaborating with a cast of musicians as talented as they are diverse. Ali Boulo Santo, heir to a long line of griots and nephew of the legendary "King of the Kora" Soundioulou Cissoko, was said to be "born with a Kora in his hands"; he pioneered an electronic fusion of Mandingue Afrobeat in his recordings for Frédéric Galliano's Frikyiwa label, and here his contributions continue to expand the possibilities for "world" music in new contexts.

Luciano back to front...and back on perlon. it's a while ago since he released a 12" together with Mathew Jonson in 2003. The swiss-chilenian sunnyboy and boss of "cadenza-records" delivers this 30 minute two-tracker and goes a little deeper again. The A-side "Fourges Et Sabres" already gained attention in 2006, traveling on cd-r around the world, as part of dj-sets of the ususal suspects. On the flipside Luciano takes us "Back To Front".....vocals included!

Cadenza Split Composition Series: An Introduction Minimal just got messier.Minimal techno has always been about stripping things down to their essence. Now, with Cadenza's Split Composition series, the opposite approach comes into play: building a new sound, and a new tradition, from the beats up.Each edition will consist of four sides of vinyl broken out into several skeletal rhythm tracks and a handful of
supplementary parts: ambient fantasias, shimmering drones, treated vocals, electro-acoustic collages. The series is a riff on the old idea of "DJ tools" offering stripped-down tracks meant to be mixed in
performance. But the Split Composition series vastly expands upon that idea, both in terms of format and the music itself. Drawing not only from techno but also from jazz, musique concrete, and 20th entury composition, the individual elements of every Split Composition release are also meant to stand on their own. In addition to being tools, they work as tangible traces of the artist's creative process—minimalist sketches of a lone idea or a single mood. While their primary purpose is to bring a sense of creativity and a spirit of play back to the DJ booth—supplying DJs with the raw materials to create dynamic mixes that don't play by the rules of the season's anthems—the Split Composition series is also a challenge to producers to step outside their comfort zones, playing with timbre, texture and melody in new ways. And for listeners who aren't DJs—or perhaps are DJs only in the sense that they craft endless playlists in their media player of choice—the Split Composition series offers a new way for listeners to approach electronic music. Split Composition invites listeners to play, shuffle, and rearrange; it invites them to remix the music not only on their turntables, but in their minds. If the DJ mix is famously described as a journey, the Split Composition series is the map of the back roads and hidden vistas, a map that yields a new route every time you unfold it. Cadenza Split Composition 001: No Model No Tool The first record in the series comes, appropriately enough, from Luciano (aka Lucien Nicolet and Lucien N Luciano), an artist who needs no introduction, and the originator of the Split Composition concept—an idea that stems from his uncompromising, experimental approach to DJing as well as from his many collaborative projects, including Sense Club and Narodniki. The A-side and B-side both find Luciano in prime form as he crafts two subtle, snaking percussive workouts. He's up to all his old tricks: topsy-turvy syncopations,relentless polyrhythms, sci-fi effects and unearthly treatments galore. Running 10 and 12 minutes, respectively, both tracks are a DJ's dream, offering endless possibilities for layering, interleaving, building up and breaking down. The B-side in particular channels all the darkness of Luciano's recent productions for Cadenza, sucking out the shadows so that only the structure—hard, angular, like an architecture of anxiety—remains. The C-side offers five short interludes, running between two and five minutes apiece. They range from a lilting vocal track, strangely reminiscent of Eraserhead's "Elevator Song," to innerspace explorations via FM synthesis to an unsettling duet for organ and air-raid siren. It's Cadenza's deepest foray into the dark side— so far. The D-side, meanwhile, is something else altogether. The color of an oilslick, the 15-minute track is a slow explosion of tone that evokes horns, strings, and bells, constantly morphing around an unstable synthetic center. As slow and weightless as a sleeper's breath, it makes the perfect close to a record designed to mix
seamlessly into the ether.

Tracklist:

1. Llovizna (Luciano Remix) 10:33
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.

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.

A1. Bou Gei
A2. Ruth
B1. Sensu Dub
B2. U-Fonk #04.01

Info:

Argentinian veteran Jorge Savoretti has been djing for more than 20 years, and his first release for
Esperanza Records traces back to 2005. In this time laps he has produced 2 albums, 20 EPs and a
great number of remixes, on labels such as Raum Musik, Visionquest and Ilian Tape. His debut on
Cadenza is a crisp breeze of graceful music for dancing.
Side A starts point-blank with “Bou Gei” bouncing shuffle, driving bass line, lively cymbals,
sparkling band-passed chords, summing-up Jorge´s true dedication to nightclubs and nightlife. With no
reprieve, “Ruth” suspicious pads lurk behind a funky swinging rhythm spruced up by a continuous
surfacing of snare rolls and giggly stabs.
On the B side, “Sensu Dub” explores without hesitation darker textures and resonances,
leaving no concessions to leave the dancefloor. Finally “U-Fonk #04.01” dives into sweating hotblooded
late-time hours, with am hypnotising deep-toned coil, soaked of greasy riffs and gloomy
fumes.

Tracklisting:

A1. Pica Pica
B1. Idiophono
B2. Planets Ballet

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
over a stack of steamy synthesisers and bubbly bleeps is a golden tune for a quivering late-night
dance-floor.

Tracklisting:
A1. Congo Congo
A2. Congo Congo Dub MIx
B1. Secret Melodies
B2. Selector
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.

Tracklist:
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.

Tracklist:
A. Soul Rain (Original Mix)
B. Soul Rain (Paco Osuna Remix)
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
remix by the Spanish don Paco Osuna.
The original mix of Pablo is a long attractive dance floor tune textured by an
overwhelming bass line and a deluge of vocal grains that shapes a large number of
fills and break downs all over the track. As the journey go further, a complex twist of
harmonies and resonances arise from the rhythmic grounds, shining over a blissful
body of beats.
Paco Osuna's remix recap all the rhythmic elements and shrink the vocal drizzle
maintaining their relevance to the building of the track. The bare inter-twin of its
relentless bass line and its stinging hi-hats works out a magnificent outbreak of the
dense original tissue of chords.

Tracklist:
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.
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
and arpeggios, as they were coming out, at last, as the Hope from the Pandora's
Box.

Tracklist 12":
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!

Tracklist 12":
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!

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.

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.

Tracklist 12":
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.

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.

Tracklist 12":
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…..

Tracklist 12":
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.
