Aural architect Skygaze follows his 2022 ‘Astral Trip EP’ for Flumo Recordings, offering an advanced fusion of house, broken boogie, and future jazz, with five brand new reinterpretations from the extended Flumo family.

Skygaze’s diverse sound, breaking down barriers between house and techno, broken beat, jazz, ambient, hip hop, jungle, and even esoteric IDM, has been showcased across a growing catalogue of releases across Guayaba records, Riverette, Flumo and Thirty Three Circular, and remixes for Ed is Dead and Contours & Yadava; earning the producer support from the likes of Mr. Scruff, Simbad, k15, Bandcamp’s Andrew Jervis, and Gilles Peterson.

Feted singer, musician and producer Alysha Joy, rising producer Divorce From New York, ones-to-watch, Footnote and Karmasound, and Skygaze himself under his Jailed Jamie guise, joined by Lorenzo Soria, put a new spin on ‘Astral Trip’, whilst staying true to the originals’ spirit.

The multi-talented Allysha Joy, of 30/70 Collective & LCSM fame, remixes ‘’Night Heat’’, enhancing the groove with broken beats and her undeniable first-rate vocals.

Jailed Jamie & Lorenzo Soria, reshape ‘’Gimme Five’’ with rough synths and jacking bassline driven “Think” beats.

Divorce From New York boosts the tempo and infuses ‘’Wagwan’’ with Latin rhythms, perfectly balanced by high-energy synth lines.

Italian producers, Footnote and SofaTalk, delve deeper into ‘’Minor Mood’’, adding softer, retro-infused sound structures in a broken boogie mould.

Barcelona’s Karmasound explores the ruminating nature of ‘’City Cathedratics’’ and its counterbalance between broken beat and house.

The diverse but complementary set of remixes is sure to move bodies on sophisticated dance-floors this year and shed further light not only Skygaze’s production but also his talent for melody and song-writing. A feather in his and Flumo’s bow.

Architect by day and musician by night, Jaime Tellado picks up as Skygaze, and returns to the fold of Flumo Recordings with his brand new 12”, the ‘Astral Trip’ EP; combining his knowledge of architecture with a love for sound to construct and merge acid house, broken beat and atmospheric melodicism.

The 'Astral Trip' EP follows releases on Guayaba records, Riverette and Thirty Three Circular. And remixes for Ed is Dead and Contours & Yadava, earning support/plaudits from the likes of Mr. Scruff, Simbad, k15, Andrew Jervis, Gilles Peterson, amongst others.

The common denominator throughout the release is the balance and combination of various elements, exploring a multifaceted contemporary dance sound whilst paying homage to the foundations of the sounds that we listen to today.

‘Minor Mood’ pays tribute to Chicago and Detroit with its high paced house rhythm, acid synths, and piano lines, whilst ‘City Cathedratics’ slows the tempo down to lay the groundwork for a dreamy synth-laden soundscape.

Whilst the majority of the project is a solo exploration in dance music and its multi-layered context and history, the contributions of vocalist Ruben Ondina lift the high-paced, synth house grooves of ‘Gimme Five’ to another level. Meanwhile, the broken beat influence of London is keenly felt on ‘Nigh Heat’ and ‘Wagwan’, their rhythms emphasised further by harmonic and melodic exploration via atmospheric synths, melodic improvisation and irresistible synth bass lines.

Skygaze reconstructs the rhythms and synths into his own fresh and unique package to paint a picture of spiritual wonder, richness and excitement.

Flumo Limited are happy to present a Various Artists release focusing on sampling some of the inspirational and creative souls surrounding their house. Label native Ekkohaus opens up with a driving beat, representative by the vibes he generates often in the clubs he visits. The playful application of effects on the hi-hats corresponds with the melodically rhythmic bass line, without losing any of the focus towards the intent of movement instigation. London's local Joe Europe alternates the tempo back down with a well contrasting rhythm and synth interplay, exposing a deeper groove that's bound to draw any dancer to the front and centre with a teasing, swinging, funky cut. Next up one of label's all time role models steps up Gene Hunt presents HaHaHa a straight up party jam aimed straight at the dancefloor. Rounding off the sampler Nicson offers up The Way I Think Of You, a trip of happiness, boogie and friendship.

No doubt some tracks immediately deserve to become a vinyl, endowing them with a halo of fetichism. Thus, poetic justice transforms a flawless work into a material, enjoyable edition. “Time to Freak" by T.W.I.C.E. is one of the jewels of our crown. Santos Resiak signs a passionate remake that today we are lucky to listen to in analog recording. A real bass-acid-funk bomb which masterly develops in a delicious melting-pot of techno, disco, and soul. Sublime and meticulous is this fabulous descent he takes us into, to finally be perched in a fairy tale end.Jussi Pekka is a self-declared addict to electronic programming where "Jack", in its purest essence, gets all the flashes. “Jacpid" results his greatest, more elegant and devious production of his career. We include it here as one of our catalogue classics, able to embody in itself both the timelessness and majesty of acid house in the history of electronic music.

We are extremely excited to have the talent that is Chocky featuring on our next release. Since he burst on to the scene, we have been following this artist. His music captures emotion & combines breaks, house and electronic Experimentation. Chocky's debut on Flumo was his beautiful Remix of Robert Cashin's Makes You Stronger The Supplier EP' for Flumo Limited features Two tracks 'The Supplier' and 'How long's a piece of String?
Chocky's production shows the listener that with modern dance music less is some times more... Sophistication does not come from complexity here, but rather from that unreachable art resulting from eliminating all the superfluous, so the clean soul alone emanates from these two tracks.
Toby Tobias a multi-faced artist having recorded for labels such as Future Classics, Quintessentials, Rekids, & Delusions of Grandeur adds his magic to 'The Supplier' on this release & we will let the music do the talking. Specter is enlisted to remix 'How long's a piece of String? The man from Chicago reinterpretation takes us to that exquisite balance where raw vintage analogical drums melt with that unique magic of His subtle, psychedelic atmospheres.
