Part 2 and final of the remix EP series for the Renato Cohen’s album ‘Sixteen Billion Drum Kicks’, with reworks by Boris Werner (Remote Area, Moon Harbour), Mr G (Rekids, Phoenix G, Oproof), and Renato Cohen More

A short introduction
16 Billion Drum Kicks is the new major Sino outing introducing Brazil's top electronic music producer, Renato Cohen. It delivers here a cleverly produced fusion of tribal-esque grooves, Samba Jazz and Funk amalgamated onto its firm foundation of its dancefloor Techno roots. With the help of legendary guest artists such as 70's Brazilian Samba Rock Marku Ribas, Sao Paolo's Samba virtuoso Bocato and Techno hero Technasia, amongst others, Renato conveys a combination of sonic subtleties and frenetic nuances that takes the listener through a myriad of emotions. A first fresh album sure to build on you, it is both a gem to listen in a relaxed state of mind as well when engaged in lightning pace. It's in 2007, after more than 10 years of production and performances, that Renato felt he finally reached the maturity and level of eclecticism required to work on a bigger scale project. He spent the next two years working on the production of his first album, 16 Billion Drum Kicks. With the mainstream Techno style moving to a minimal, darker and melancholic sound, the album finds an alternative, conveying a global positive mood and dancefloor energy. It is an experiment that combines organic sounds with electronic music and features many Brazilian Jazz and Samba musicians, such as the 60 years-old Samba-Rock legend Marku Ribas on the track Cosmic Man, and the wellrespected trombone player Bocato, in an unexpected Samba-Jazz version of Pontapé. Techno producer and long-lasting friend Technasia also collaborated closely with Renato at the different stages of the production of the album, including mixing and mastering. It's with this project that the two fellas realised they could bring the collaboration to the next level, and came up with the idea of a Live/ DJ performances series entitled Sino Live!, a mix of mashups of their original tracks together with loop and re-edits of well-known Techno classics. The newly formed duo performed during summer 2008 at several festivals, including Monegros (Spain), Electromind (France) and Wire (Japan). More

BIO:

Benjamin Vigneron, also known as Vronsky, was born in 1991 in Aix-en-Provence,
France.
As a Teenager, drawn simultaneously to Visual Arts, Cinema and Music
production, he made his first contact with Techno by working for a local club
as a graphic designer.
During his 20s, while living between Montreal, Canada and Marseille, France,
it was revealed to Benjamin he suffered from a heavy bipolar disorder. As a
reaction, he started losing himself in free parties and increasingly dangerous
habits.
Gradually learning to love himself despite his flaws, he kicked his risk-taking
after he realized the love of music prevailed over anything else.
Equipped with a strong desire to share his vision despite not being able to
perform as a DJ, Benjamin started a youtube channel and a collective named
Listening Blue.

release date:28.01.2012 barcode: 827170484368 tracklisting: A1 Bloody Samba B1 Ain't Hot B2 Discoordination
Sino is proud to present Delaze . Delaze is a multi faceted music producer.
Coming from a culturally diverse and deeply rooted music family, becoming a music producer of varied taste was an inevitable path. His father was a well known radio host in the city of Brasilia back in the 80's. It was there where Delaze discovered his love for music. Being surrounded by his dad's massive vinyl collection enabled Delaze to appreciate the classics. For his first EP, Sino selected three tracks. Bloody Samba as the title suggest is inspired by the heat of Brazilian carnaval. Ain't Hot is deep and funky oscillating between techno and house. Discoordination goes disco. More

Parallel is the bold debut album from rising star Dosem. The Catalan producer behind such hits as ‘Silent Drop’ and the sexy smash ‘Beach Kisses’ unveils his futuristic vision on a double album comprised of ‘Dosem’ and ‘Sendo’, that take listeners from Girona’s sultry shores to the throbbing heart of the world’s best dancefloors. Officially four years in the making, Parallel is the product of a fascination with sound that stretches back to Dosem’s childhood, when he tried to capture in music the images of his favourite sci-fi films. Though his methods have matured there is a boyish sense of wonder that echoes through the album. A sense of joy and discovery underpins the glistening melodies of Parallel, taking listeners on a trip through wondrous realms of time, space and emotion. Part one, ‘Dosem’, draws on past and present to project the listener into the future: a future where delicate yet propulsive techno tunes like ‘Tannhauser Gate’ and ‘Silent Drop’ sidle up and stir the dancefloor with a synth-plated swizzle stick. Like much of the finest electronic music of recent times, Parallel moves beyond the stereotype of machine music and boldly reclaims the heart and soul of techno. Standout track ‘True Elements’ is a textbook example, marrying a glorious female vocal to a sharp, clean almost stark skeleton of purist electronica. Elsewhere, Dosem delves into memory to recreate moments such as ‘Diagonal’ – a tuneful snapshot of a late-night walk along Barcelona’s famous Avinguda Diagonal with a girlfriend. ‘Sendo’ projects different elements of Dosem’s musical identity. It delivers a modern twist on classicsounding ambient electronica with tracks such as the Balearic-tinged ‘Distant Playgrounds’ and fuzzily sensual offering ‘Your Skin’. Other highlights include the euphoric optimism of ‘I Will Let’ and the slinky eastern atmospherics of ‘Children of Yesterday’. Despite the panoply of moods and sounds there is a consistent thread of emotion that runs through Parallel, drawing its listeners into a world of vision and memories. “Every track talks about a moment, a memory, or a special person,” Dosem explains. “If you go deep into each track, you suddenly find little love stories inside.” In addition to touring this summer, Dosem will draw fans further into a Parallel world with a series of cinematic shorts to accompany the album tracks. “I want people to experience the music More
