[New Release] Various Artists – Second Chances & New Romances Volume 4 (Noir Music)

by

[New Release] Noir, Noir, Noir … the way you do the things you do baby. ‘Second Chances & New Romances‘ EPs are some of the most popular and most anticipated releases on Noir Music, most notably because by now they define their own sound which differs slightly from the other releases on the label. Volume 4 includes amazing new tracks from Larse, Kolombo & DeMarzo, Hector Couto, and a collaboration between Noir and good friends Audiojack & Ruede Hagelstein.  It’s hard to play favorites when it comes to Noir Music, but, the new boys have got.me.going baby!!! ‘Time To Fall’ and ‘Touching Me’ … WOW. Volume 4 debuts newcomers Timos, Habischman & Plus Me, and my newest infatuation Finnebassen.  Keep on the watch for this 24 year old Norwegian, ever since his bangin booty shakin beauty ‘If You Only Knew‘ we knew he was going to be blessing us with some blissful beats this year and ‘Such A High’ and my personal favorite ‘Touching Me’ are only testament to our prophecy. His vibes baby, they make me so ‘I don’t want nobody else, holding me, touching me’ … all I need baby, all I need is music, let it hold me, touch me, tease me and take me higher simply through the seduction of rapturous beats.

[News] Heidi Launches Jackathon Label

by

[News] The infamous badass blonde babe Heidi is set to launch her new label The Jackathon next week on May 14th under the parent label Get Physical Music. The Jackathon first began in 2009 as a party series Heidi would take with her around the world, evolved to a mix CD series in 2011, and has now in 2012 come to fruition to manifest its essence and energy in what will inevitably be one of the most bangin labels. Heidi is a woman after my own heart, a true lover with an open mind.

 

In an interview with Resident Advisor she shares that her inspiration behind The Jackathon was to bring more of a family vibe to the table.“I’m really open to anything as I like so many different styles of music…Many people don’t know but the word ‘jacking’ is a dance move, a feeling to move your body in a certain way, pertaining to the music that was coming out in Chicago at a certain moment in dance music history. For me it definitely has to be about the artist and if I connect with them on a personal level. That makes such a difference to me…All of my parties have been real moments for me because the people who agree to come and play really get stuck in and enjoy the night to the fullest…It’s about connecting the dots between different genres of music. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside after we do these parties and everyone always leaves with a sweaty smile on their face and usually a massive hangover. The tell tale signs of good night.”*

 

“I asked 16 artists that I admire to make an exclusive track for me as a little gift to the people who have supported what I do – some known, some unknown. It was also a gift to me, as I had no idea what these artists were going to make me. The result was more than I could have wished for. All of the tracks are totally different from each other and super fresh, which is what I wanted and keeps with the theme of the night. Diversity and change are always welcome.” Heidi on The Jackathon 2011. (soundcloud.com) Heidi Presents Jackathon Jams will get started with a mini-compilation, Da Remixes, featuring reworks of the exclusive tracks from the Jackathon mix by Deniz Kurtel, Eats Everything, and Richy Ahmed.

[Forthcoming Release] Various Artists – Stranger Things Have Happened Vol.1 (Electronique Digital)

by

[Forthcoming Release]  Electronique Digital has easily became one of my favorite record labels.  With releases from artists like Hot Since 82,  Raffa FL, Bubba, Rebel, Made to Move, Damian Uzabiaga, and many others, 2012 is sure to be their year.  After just releasing an amazing Miami WMC Sampler, we get another strong release from them in Stranger Things Have Happened Vol. 1, a six song compilation which is sure to get anyone grooving.

Here, Electronique shows that they can bring on new artists without having to compromise their sound.  This compilation is filled with heavy hitters.  Markus Eden’s ‘With Me,’ DanieIL’s ‘Plast,’ and Fabo’s ‘Light Again,’ are all prime examples of what a true dance floor banger should sound like.  These tracks have heavy, dark, melodic bass lines which are uniquely affiliated with Electronique’s astounding sound.  Two other tech-leaning tracks off the compilation, ‘Party Dancin’ and ‘Serial,’ are no less amazing.  Sean Roman’s ‘Turn Me On’ definitely the stand out in singularity on the compilation; this one lays down an R&B vibe with a jumpy feel to it.  Overall, the whole compilation is pure quality and I can’t wait for its release!

If you can’t wait till June to hear these tracks, Electronique is doing a US West Coast tour this weekend showcasing a selection of their artists in San Fransisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego.  If you can make it out to one of theses shows it is highly recommended!!!
