No 19 revisit the recently released, critically acclaimed Tone of Arc album ‘The Time Was Right’ for the next EP. Disco king Prins Thomas and Southern Fried duo Luca remix C & Brigante remix two key tracks fro the album to fantastic effect. First up we have Prins Thomas, known the world over as one of disco’s foremost innovators, he is boss at the Internajsonal label and has his own singular sound that takes its cues from prog rock and kraut as much as disco past and present. Here he reworks ‘Goodbye Horses’ into an even more lovelorn, dubbed out and slow burning disco licker than was the original. Laced up with a cosmic 80s vibe, innocent melodic stabs and his usual celestial synthesisers, it’s a mature and patient track that rewards your close inspection on every level. Deservingly hyped Italian duo Luca C & Brigante then offer two remixes of ‘Love Kissed’. Mouse With No House Mix goes first and strips back the poised and purposeful, low slung and sun kissed funk of the original into a deep and space house jam rich with glowing harmonic melodies and a slowly churning bottom end. A perfect set builder that teases with acid as much as it rewards with its inviting chords. The duo’s second remix of the same track is even more heavyweight and heads down as you’d expect of something called a Warehouse Dub. The duo allows plenty of space around their arrangement for the deepness to really sink in. Their finely balanced, groove inducing claps and hits churn along at an oh-so appealing pace that manages to both sexy and serious. This is a finely thought out remix packages that breathes new life and fresh angles into Tone of Arc’s still standout originals and will likely see them rolled out plenty more times this summer.

Tone of Arc unleashes his stunning debut album on the world this spring in the shape of ‘The Time Was Right’, a genre defying LP that shines with the raw talent of its exceptional multi-instrumentalist producer… Tone of Arc has been generating a lot of excitement since joining forces with the red hot No.19 Music early lastyear. A string of highly anticipated live performances at Social Experiment parties in New York, Miami, London, Berlin and beyond have given birth to a reputation as one of the most exciting live performers around, whilst singles, ‘Shaking the Sky’ & ‘Goodbye Horses’ have given a tantalizing glimpse into the genuine raw musical talent of singer/song writer Derrick Boyd & partner Zoe Presnick. Boyd is no stranger to the music industry having already scored success with his Dead Seal project, but it seems his pairing with Presnick and his bond with Jonny White (who executive produced the album) and the No.19 crew has brought a fresh intensity to his work, allowing him to marry his passion for songwriting with his unbridled talent as a musician and performer. The product of all this is the wonderful ‘The Time Was Right’, an album that finally opens the doors onto the musical soul of Tone of Arc, allowing all to see what they are truly capable of. Tone of Arc has delivered a debut LP that is far beyond the reach of anyone’s expectations and in doing so has positioned No.19 Music as a label that defies classification and is seemingly capable of anything. Jonny White describes Derrick Boyd as “more talented than anyone I have ever know” and after listening to ‘The Time Was
Right’ it’s clear to see why, this is a simply stunning record that will find a place in the hearts of music lovers everywhere.

No.19 Music look once again to the multi talented Tone of Arc for their latest single, an atmospheric cover version of the 1988 hit 'Goodbye Horses', the release also features a remix from the ever excellent Deniz Kurtel… Jonny White's No.19 Music has been keeping up the pressure in 2012 with a string of quality releases from the likes of Art Department & Konrad Black, Ali Love, Cameo Culture and Tone of Arc, the San Francisco based, multi-instrumentalist producer who has become a core member of the No19 team. Tone of Arc, better known to friends as Derrick Boyd has been a fixture on the electronic music scene for a number of years but it's since hooking up with Jonny White and No19 that his star has really gone into its ascendency. His debut single 'Shaking the Sky/No Pushers' received broad critical acclaim on its release earlier this year and saw. Derrick featured widely in the international press. Now Tone of Arc is backed with a brand new release that is set to give an insight into the broader musical realms of which he inhabits. The record opens up with 'Goodbye Horses', a cover of the 1988 Q Lazarus hit that famously featured in the film 'Silence of the Lambs'. Boyd treats the composition with a deft touch, staying true to the original in many ways whilst bringing his own unique sound to bear, a dark edged eighties electro feel runs throughout and Boyd's own vocals soar over the arrangement with real power, quality stuff indeed. 'Goodbye Horses' is followed by one of Boyd's original compositions, the excellent 'Sound Sail' featuring vocals from Boyd and partner Zoe Presnick. 'Sound Sail' has a distinctly balaeric feel with its repeated piano chords and uplifting vocal elements playing off the rolling rhythms and deep pads/synths. The original version is complimented by a remix from Crosstown Rebels / Wolf + Lamb artist Deniz Kurtel, she turns 'Sound Sail' into a stripped and ethereal reworking that is brilliantly hypnotic and a perfect late night twist on Boyd's original. With rumour of a Tone of Arc album in the pipeline for early 2013, this is another wonderful taster of just what this guy can do and with Jonny White's No19 label behind him it would seem he is set for big things.

After the success of the fantastic album, Atomic Age, No.19 Music released recently from Canadian musical talents My Favorite Robot, the label has decided to enlist four acclaimed producers to provide remixes of key tracks. Detroit bad boy Jimmy Edgar, Chicago's Kate Simko and legendary techno producer Mr. G all appear on this great EP. The one and only Jimmy Edgar - who has recently launched his own label Ultramajic - goes first with his terrifically alluring version of 'White Light'. He expertly re-works the track into a robotic bit of house that's filled with pinging synths lines, rasping metal chords and shiny percussion. It's typically libidinous and full-blooded and is sure to make for some really standout moments on the 'floor. No-nonsense Rekids man Mr. G then re-imagines 'Here Tonight' as a heavyweight, firmly rooted techno groove with manic conga playing and drilling bass fleshing out the groove. It's a driving track for the dead of night and displays all the man's usual full-throttle intent. Kate Simko, a revered DJ, live act and producer with labels like Leftroom, remixes the superbly titled 'Centerofattentionaaut' with the help of some live musicians including violinists. In her hands the track is a slightly spooky, sparse affair that snakes it way through a desolate urban landscape with subtly rising, hugely musical melodies and plenty of unsettling ambiance contained within. When the vocal arrives at the mid-point it marks a timely release of tension that will undoubtedly send hands skywards. Given the quality of the source material it's no wonder these remixes are so refreshing, but kudos to No. 19 Music for bringing in just the right names to ensure such an amazing result.

The ever-excellent No.19 Music team up with the enigmatic and highly talented Ali Love for a new single featuring production and remix duties from Brigante. Ali Love whose work with the likes of Hot Natured and Crosstown Rebels has created such a stir. Love has been a key player in electronic music for some time now, working alongside acid house legend Eon in the band Ignition before signing to Columbia as a solo artist and hooking up with London's Back Yard. This latest single sees Ali teams up with producer Brigante to deliver two superb new cuts, Brigante also offering up his own remix on the second track. The record opens with 'Playa', a deep and hypnotic, bass driven affair that fuses percussive elements and understated melodies to create the base for Ali Love's distinctively ethereal and soulful vocals, quality stuff from beginning to end. The A side is complemented by the superb 'Brigante's Jungle' a warm and haunting slice of underground house music that once again showcases Ali's vocals, as his incantations about the Jungle sit against staccato vocal effects and old school Chicago inspired stabs. Exclusively available on the vinyl release we have Seb Brigante's remix of 'Brigante's Jungle' that sees the record taken into deep and twisted territory with the vocal heavily effected and the drums brought to the fore, a perfect version to close this stunning single. With each new signing, No19 Music seem to further open up the label's direction whilst maintaining the highest levels of quality and with this single from Ali Love they have done it again, enjoy!
