Press Info:
‘Camargue’ gets a fresh treatment on Drumcode, as a handful of techno’s finest give new life to an R&S classic.

Coming from the studio of CJ Bolland and Portuguese journeyman The Advent, the track was born out of a golden age of Belgium dance music and first released in 1992. It stands as one of the most treasured pieces of vinyl in Adam Beyer’s collection and this six-part compilation of remixes and remakes marks a highpoint in Drumcode’s history.

The package consists of a punchy pin-sharp 2019 version of the original, as CJ Bolland and The Advent polish the edges of their time-honoured rave favourite. Maceo Plex makes his return to DC after 2014’s ‘Conjure Dreams’ and his is a bustling industrial take, with distorted vox that gives way to sheaths of stirring melody, before the spine-tingling chords enter the fore and the cut drops into broken beats. Vintage Maceo. Enrico Sangiuliano delivers a trademark cosmic rework underlined by tribal bass stabs and twisted synth lines to accompany the famous riff. It’s an outstanding remake that’s already a big summer favourite for the Drumcode crew. Adam Beyer and Layton Giordani team up with their own groove-injected, future-focused adaption, all the while never losing sight of the misty-eyed spirit of the original. In contrast to the peak-time prowess of the other respective versions, rising Dutch talent Keith Carnal moulds a liquid smooth interpretation heavy on hypnosis and sparse drums. The Advent rounds out the package with his own fresh version, a whip-smart cut that chops and changes between pounding drums, dreamy synth interludes and warbled effects.

“Camargue is one of my favourite tracks of all-time and has been part of my life for 25 years. To put it out on Drumcode with fresh remixes is a dream come true.” – Adam Beyer

After the amazing Heresia EP, talented Turin-based techno producer Norberto Lusso returns to Wunderblock Records with a stunning debut album. Strong propulsive techno rhythms, like psychedelic trains, sweep through the mind-blowing soundscapes, from the start to the end of the whole album, and make it all a complex and unforgettable trip. A touch of melancholic and even euphoric chords adds a true balearic feel to the album, which is ideal for the techno floors or for just deep listening.

Press Info:
Brothers Black return with a diverse dance-floor focussed four track VA, BRBL004.

Kicking off the VA is Magna Pia, one half of the power-duo Cassegrain. Combining a stomping kick with atmospheric sound design and an industrial-influenced lead, ‘Ina’ is a thoughtful peak-time weapon. Following on is one of Sweden’s underground mainstays, Sandra Mosh. ‘Paimon’ is a highly effective groove-led track that is synonymous with Mosh’s sound: hypnotic and driving.

Next up is Miller & Keane, consisting of Abstract Division’s Dave Miller and Damian Keane. ‘Foundation’ is a twisted warehouse tool that combines a frenetic, sticky analog lead with stomping percussion and an industrial snare. Closing the release is Brothers Black’s ’Childish’. Combining driving percussion with audio samples from one of the 00’s famous horror films, Childish is an unpredictable, memorable cut.

Press Info:
We are very happy to welcome the talented Swedish artist Axling as a new member of our family. Making his debut at the label with a package of exceptional productions, showing his characteristic raw and analog sound in each of them. Starting with ‘[1010]’ a cut loaded with movement where he makes very good use of the classic bleep by dividing it into two parts, a low and a much more treble one, thus creating a complex and contagious rhythmic pattern. On the second track we have ‘Screen’ with an imposing kick and an envelope sub bass as predominant elements that accompany the very well programmed synth arpeggio and 909 hi hats sequence. We continue with ’10 sec to panic’ a track of a more progressive character and influenced by that sound that was so popular in the raves of the late 90s, where the artist boldly leaves the comfort zone without losing his distinctive touch. ‘End Signal’ is another organic cut, that many would describe as Loop or Hypnotic Techno, which uses that old and effective formula where doing more with less is the main rule. Finally we find ‘Closing Phase’ a track of more gray nuances and background reverberated sounds, perfect to close any set and be the icing on the cake in this release.
