His music is like a ‚Waterfall on House’ – organic, constantly running, sparkling and fresh. It could be the background tune for Magazine Beauties in St. Tropez, it feels like a drive through Californian valleys, or it may as well be the soundtrack tune for a full moon party on the Greek islands - yes, it might indeed just be the result of many a club year. Just as well, however, we can look at it as some sort of a flip side to those busy and dark times of dull and hard work back in the days, something to simply relax andm make you smile, after a hard day‘s work, with a cigarette in one hand and a smooth drink in the other... imagine a piece of Roxy Music, a dancefloor in northern Italy - some time in the late 80‘s - and Joe Smooth‘s ‘Promised Land’. See what I mean ? You picture this ? Well, in that case you have a pretty good idea of Roberto‘s „Serenades“ style. The original version of `Tell Me feat. Kholi‘ is taken from the upcoming album `Dawn‘.

Volta Cab has made quite an impact on the Nu Disco / Deep House scene since last year. He is a multitalented, versatile producer, performing brilliantly in a range from from Nu Disco, Deep House, Soul, Techno to Breakbeat. Approaching music in an open way, he is not restricting himself to a certain genre, catching the
Zeitgeist. On Serenades, Volta Cab takes us back to 1992 with a 4 tracker called „House Of The Rising Fire EP“
All of the tracks are heavily influenced by rave and house soundscapes of the early 90s. Think of early Prodigy, Altern8, Rachel Wallace and Baby D, combined with a modern nu disco twist.
Tracklisting:
A1: Volta Cab: We Rock
A2: Volta Cab: House Of The Rising Fire
B1: Volta Cab: I Don’t Want Love
B2: Volta Cab: Cougar Street

Bermuda is a rare project from Kimmo Oksanen and Roberto Rodriguez. Fusing synthed out deep house and disco vibes the talented pair have crafted a real blast from the past with the super cool retro styled ‚Ihasama‘.
The release comes in three fantastic versions. Firstly the thrilling Nacho Marco Remix fuses 80s vibes with a modern approach as he twists the original‘s synths into an old school jacking house jam! The ‚Extended Club Music Edit‘ sees Oksanen and Rodriguez open up the energy levels with a more discofied, running mix. Subtle key changes and some genius instrumentation really bring this mix to life, as its rousing synthlines do the business.
Finally up and coming UK producer Jay Shepheard reinterprets Ihasama into a funky, light hearted jam that‘s perfect for the summer sun. Soft strings rise and fall before a walking bassline brings it back it back home. More great work from this growing talent!

If it is about contemporary House Music, there is no way of avoiding the northern Dj’s & producers. First and foremost with Roberto Rodriguez aka Manolo, who has shaped his personal funk infected old-school vibe over the last years and helped the house revive without forgetting from where it came from. His Future Beat Investigators strictly followed the Detroit heritage and his Acid Kings membership gave us lust for the Roland TB 303 again. The Bermuda project came back to Cosmic again and had more than an impact on the Nu Disco styles.
It is his pertinent mix of soulful, funky & functional dancefloor and his his effective productions who convinced the tastemakers worldwide and prepared his ground for top notch releases on labels
like Compost, 2020Vision, Freerange or Delusions of Grandeur and remixes for acts like Yoko Ono, Tigerstripes, Jay Shepheard, the Timewriter, Marmion, Crazy P, Bellringers or Vanessa Daou.
Now the time has come for his own platform called Serenades, featuring the Manolesque EP - for those who like it deep, down & funky!
