Short info:
Who is zoé zoe? It's not a new French fashion designer. It's not a new grill bar in your neighborhood either. And it's not a newfound African tribe, nor a Thailand made bio energy drink. It's a Lithuanian small town boy turned promising groom, turned taxi driver, turned Techno producer, turned Berlin inhabitant or the other way round. He could also be a man behind that secret weapon of your summer 2015 sets. Hoy!

Short info:
Darius Vaikas is exploring House territories with his own custom made compass. Some may know him from You Will Never Be Alone, a little leftfield gem featured on a very limited Project: Mooncircle's EP split among four artists. Some may know him because of an amazing remix he did for the fellow Lithuanians mmpsuf and their song The Sailors. His original track White Eights was one of the highlights of Silence Please!, a compilation presented by Get Physical Music. But everyone should know that this is just a beginning and a new Darius' EP for Best Kept Secret is yet another proof of an emerging talent and his idiosyncratic sound.

Tracklist: A1: Few Nolder - Private Drive A2: Few Nolder - Private Drive (Mikesh & Filburt Remix) B1: Few Nolder - Noughts B2: Few Nolder - Noughts (Matt Walsh Remix)
Few Nolder first introduced himself in a deep and delicate manner back in 2006. A Lithuanian label Partyzanai released his debut EP and some black techno magic happened. Soon after Few Nolder had his single out on Mike Paradinas' highly regarded Planet Mu, and his debut album was soon to follow. Silence Family, the music label, event promotion and artist agency founded by Vidis for bringing together luminaries of Lithuanian electronica, started operating in 2009. Few Nolder quickly became involved. He even branched out into a shady space disco alias New Found Land that steps into the stage when it is least expected. Live gigs in Lithuania and abroad (Latvia, Estonia, Russia, UK, Austria, Germany, France), varied original productions, unexpected co-productions, genre bending remix work, even electronic operas and ballets - the last few years have been an adventurous ride full of events and discoveries. Few Nolder is now ready to release a new 12" on Silence's sub label Best Kept Secret to further his recherche and moody point of artistic view that someone once pinned down as 'female techno'. Never failing to surprise, always full of unprecedented material that takes the listener to a mellow yet driving soundscape.

Mario basanov, THE Lithuanian super producer is coming back for more and for showing the other side of his multifaceted musical persona. Best known for catchy hooks, pop melodies and vocal productions, Mario delivers here two slow burners in form of Closer and Something About. Darker and deeper than one might expect Mario Basanov is at his best here.
On remix duties are two fellows from the other side of Mario's studio wall - a dynamic duo of Saulty and Bradka better known as Downtown Party Network. The combo pitched up the tempo, beefed up the groove, and even added some euphoric stabs and strings for enhanced dance floor usability of the title track.

Saulty and Bradka, the two behind Vilnius based Downtown Party Network tag team, combine together more than 10 years of DJ and production experience. Their original productions have been signed by Eskimo, Loud East, Bear Funk. Their remix work has been commissioned by Pete Herbert, Kolombo, Main Stem, Deadstock 33's, TJ Kong & Nuno Dos Santos and even Sander Kleinenberg. Their gig geography ranges from London to Dubai. Which doesn't give even a tiny shadow of doubt on their musical credibility and ability to rock the party. Here they deliver the first single of another kind for Best Kept Secret - killer bass line combined with irresistible Jazz chords on A side and some Metro Area'ish stripped down funkiness on B side. Dance music machinery at its best.

The onus of proof regarding deepness is a rather peculiar one. Even if one presses all the right buttons, quotes the correct sources and applies the textbook techniques, often something seems to be amiss. The elusive producer Mute never had that problem. Blessed with a a sound of his own, that seems to stem from within and can be called deep house without the genre’s strait-laced demeanor, his aesthetic includes a distinct feel for boogie and disco tropes. Case in point: Lost. Placed as a B2 it is the secret start of Direct Cuts II and more
prominent on this new edition of a classic Running Back record. Molded into an extended disco version by Gerd Janson with unused parts of the original recording session, it something like a curveball deep house disco song, according to the motto: you and me, we can be like a whole universe! Hard to resist and even harder not to like if you have the slightest interest in Prelude records, Diana Ross songs or Tee Scott mix techniques. Basics, Vibes and Driver’s License push further into the world and musical mindset of Mute.
Originally released in 2006 as the the fourth outing of the label and the second (and his last one to date) of the elusive artist, it is still as remarkable as on its first release. Carefully rescued from the original DAT tapes, all re-edited by Gerd Janson and remastered by Lopazz, it’s available again in a clear and present portraiture of its original intent. Early adopters like Danny Krivit and the Idjut Boys can’t be wrong.

Gatefold Cover, Double-12”

Tracklist:

A Original Mix (08:55 min)
B Broken Mix (08:39 min)
C Kuniyuki Version (09:26 min)
D Session Victim Version (06:51 min)

Following well-regarded outings on Phonica Records and Wolf Music, and a superb "Many Shades Of House" compilation released this year, Lausanne-based Lea Lisa joins Smallville Records this June with ‘Poem For The Lost Souls’, accompanied by remixes from Kuniyuki and Session Victim as a special Double-12“ package with Gatefold Cover.

For these tracks, Lea Lisa has worked with several musicians in the studio to transform the warmth and organic feel of real instruments into her musical universe. The original mix of ‘Poem For The Lost Souls’ leads, a jazzy house journey that ebbs and flows through fluttering flute melodies, ethereal chords, wandering piano and funk-infused bass grooves running atop organic percussion and disco tinged drums. On the B Side, the ‘Broken Mix’ follows, as the name would suggest, rhythmically shifting focus towards off-kilter drum breaks alongside the other melodies and again - all the ingredients that make a classic house track.

Opening the C-side on record 2, acclaimed Japanese artist and Mule Musiq regular Kuniyuki steps up to rework ‘Poem For The Lost Souls’, in typical fashion the Sapporo born producer extracts the core grooves from the original and shapes it into something uniquely his own, laden with warmth, soul and dynamics. The duo Session Victim then round out the release on Side D with their interpretation, fusing together the original synth melodies with their own amalgamation of intricately intertwined keys and atmospherics, underpinned by a shuffled rhythm section and bouncy low-end drive.

It’s coming with a gatefold cover-artwork by Stefan Marx for a cherry-blossom glimpse of Yoyogi Park in Tokyo.
