inits music has the rare quality of transforming bleakness into a soothing experience. in the duos new ep, wildcard, this mechanism is more intense than ever. and that might be because of the particular circumstances that surrounded its inception. two years ago, nadia dalo and benedikt frey decided to move from darmstadt to berlin. adjusting to a rough area of a big city when coming from a quiet town necessarily brings a change of perspective. for nadia and benedikt, that meant experiencing the city life as outsiders while trying to figure out what they wanted from it.wildcard is the sonic result of this process, and proof that changes always bring growth. recorded in their new home studio during winter, the six tracks on the ep are as haunting as their previous lp for hivern, but with a rawer approach and enhanced power. take cover and solver, an approximation to the kind of moody psych-techno they display in their live-shows and two of the most dance floor oriented tracks init have recorded to date. but its the title track which best expresses the mindset of this work. with its skeletal rattle and undulating synths, wildcard feels as desolate as a berlin street in a winter night, but possesses the kind of focus that turns uncertainty into hope. in a similar way, cuts such as copycat or half baked perfectly capture the sort of estrangement -daunting yet hopeful- that comes when moving into a new place, with its slow tempos mirroring the cautious pace of a foreigner and the intoxicated atmospheres calmly distilling the essence of a new environment. nadia and benedikt describe this new habitat as small kids on big bikes, eating dry instant noodles, playing with whats to find on the streets, static aircraft traffic closely over our heads and constant running engines. listening to the music that arose from it, its obvious that, once again, they&# 39,ve been able to overturn apparently hostile elements into a place were youd want to stay forever

gas grabaciones second cut it s an interesting mixture of two well known artists at their hometown. -eterno- is a very skilled dj with years of experience and also with wide experience producing, from day one he s an important reference for the label. on the other side we have -matias muten- track, his blasting live sets are an exquisite reference in uruguay. when talking about live performances, matias is a must. this work from both artists will try to tell with their analog, eclectic, bumping sounds how s the deal down in uruguay with experienced producers. ideal to play it both sides on the same dj set, they in some way complement each other, as if the story to tell is the same.

welcome to nightlife. johannes klingebiel’s debut on rss disco’s mireia records. an atmospheric journey. melancholic, yet euphoria-inducing. johannes’ five tracks cast their shadows into the darkness, mirroring patches of light that can be found if you wander out far enough. it’s simultaneously the soundtrack of sweaty dancers losing their sense of time and place and the hopeful feeling of a new day during a drive into the first light in the hazy morning hours. johannes is a studied drummer. he released music on labels like mule musiq, ancient future now and feines tier. he’s also one half of alma & mater and travels constantly with the bands c.a.r. and vimes. oh and he’s a great dj as well. he probably never sleeps. that’s how he manages to capture the magic of nightlife. the vinyl comes in a screen printed sleeve with hand stamped labels and is limited to 300 pieces.

everything i know and i will never know about you is a journey through electronica, deep-house and pop, driven by the endless and timeless sources of inspiration that are love and life. prior releases on powerhouses diynamic, get physical and third ear have pinpointed denite’s sound at the border of deep and tech-house but his long player debut is, sonically, a fresh new adventure. the spanish producer takes a developed and matured sound into deeper dimensions of self-reflection, exploring new sonori- ties while remaining loyal to his early influences with strong personal touches on drums and keys. everything i know and i will never know about you is a bold move for denite, who comes a step closer to achieving his artistic vision. tracks like when i go out and the art of letting go embody the album’s innate dance-floor nature while songs like berlin see the spanish producer looking square towards new horizons and musical ambitions. club-friendly while staying geared towards the headphones, everything i know and i will never know about you reads like a bridge between two love stories with similar paths and mirroring endings. opening with the slow, pulsating sound of a heartbeat, it follows the universal cycle of the highs and lows of a relationship, closing on brighter promises and new potentialities.

constantly turning around itself, the winding melody of vertere turns outward and inward at the same time, bringing the listener on a journey outward while mirroring a simultaneous labyrinthine journey inward. like the word itself, vertere, with its roots in the latin word verto (which itself takes its roots in the earlier sanskrit word, vartayati) it signifies the very nature of change itself. it means both to turn and reflect inward and yet also move forward — a call to action for setting in motion new things. a paradox at first glance but also perhaps a surprisingly accurate description of the destructive and reconstructive nature of creation. an apt metaphor for this bright new collaboration between established life and death artists mind against and the new artist project of federico maccherone, aka somne. on remix duties, when you have an artist of the caliber of tobias freund, you don t need to ask for anything more and with his outstanding remix of vertere he very clearly shows why. this long time mainstay of the electronic music scene has managed to stay not just relevant but on the cutting edge longer than most with respected releases on some of the most seminal imprints to be putting out music in the world of underground dance music. with vertere he takes what s already top quality material and somehow manages to turn it inward and in his own unique way elevate it to another level entirely. with a relentless beat and a sonic force that is hard to describe with mere words the tobias. remix of vertere comes out of the gate like a runaway machine rapturously drunk on its own self awareness. it marches ever forward, full of fervor, and will surely be driving dance floors both large and small to the euphoric edge of the ecstatic state.

tonbaumeister’s love for electronic music roots deep in the late eighties when he got his first computer, a commodore c-64, and when he instantly fell for the distinctive sounds of its sid chip. always driven by this passion he since then devoted himself to producing electronic music on various computing platforms and with multiple different programs to discover and soon constantly reinvent his own style. growing up in hessen, in the very heart of germany, he was deeply influenced by the endlessly evolving styles of house music and techno, which shaped the face of the vibrant club culture in cities like frankfurt and kassel. although tonbaumeister’s style might prematurely be declared as house music, the diversity of his productions makes it almost impossible to put them in a box and label them. his energetic tracks range from straight house to tech house to almost dark technoid characteristics, but suddenly one finds oneself surpr ised by the aforementioned sounds of late eighties computer games embedded in a psychedelic landscape with rough sawtoothy baselines. as hard as it is to pin down his production style, it is even harder to label his dj sets, which, as well as his productions, constantly evolve and morph while mirroring all of tonbaumeister’s influences. since 1999 he developed a passion for djing and he has had the chance to transport his enthusiasm into a number of clubs, infecting many clubbers with his verve. at the moment he is about to launch his own label subclinical

releasing for the first time on paradigma musik, two young artists from the italian port city oflivorno or (in english) leghorn, have united under the techno alias, alicanuel for the imprint’ssixteenth edition.ilario alicante, one half of alicanuel, was practically born with a passion for music whichultimately resulted in 10 releases – including the successful living near africa, released in2008 on cecille records. his work is respected and played by the legendary likes of svenväth, ricardo villalobos, marco carola, luciano, nick curly, and many more. ilario s currentbase in berlin has had a powerful influence on much of his work.ilario’s musical half is none other than the eccentric, emmanuel beddewela, currently residingin italy. testing all musical boundaries, emmanuel bears a strong stance in the contemporaryunderground techno and house scene. the sounds and melodies echoed in his work stem backto the very music of his ancestry.paradigma bagged a mound of talent on this number including a festive two-sider comprisedof „tagonga,“ a romantic upbeat track with violins and recorders weaved throughout its courseand „as warm as you can,“ moderately mirroring its counterpart using modern instrumentals.both genial tracks reveal ilario’s fervent deep house grooves and emmanuel’s old countryetno-folk melodies.
