SummersRadio™ New Music! Marco Dassi - 'Acid Purple Weed'/ 'Be A Light'
Italian dj/ producer Marco Dassi is releasing a new album next week called 'First, Quake Me'! The thirteen track album will be released on September 11th on the Hell Yeah Recordings label. Like yesterday's post this release features some interesting cover art that may or may not be based on a human:
'Acid Purple Weed' is one of many standout tracks on the album with it's spacious acid techno vibe... Enjoy!
'Be A Light'is another standout track from 'First, Quake Me' featuring lush layers of synths suitable for strutting... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Maxime Dangles - 'Golden Gate' (Original Mix)/ 'Sun E' (Tempelhof Remix)
France's Maxime Dangles has just released a new EP called 'Sun E/ Golden Gate'! It was a mere two months ago that I was blown away by Dangles 'Hold Up' EP (which you can revisit here: http://summersradio.blogspot.ca/2012/06/summersradio-new-music-maxime-dangles.html) and now his vibrant sounds and amazing production are dazzling my mind yet again!
The new EP features three tracks - the original mixes of the two title tracks - and the 'Tempelhof Remix' of 'Sun E'. It's released on Italy's Hell Yeah Recordings label and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/#release/sun-e-golden-gate/951233
Let's begin with 'Golden Gate' - I love the label's description of this one:"Hidden kick drums thud below soft bell patterns, panpipes, trumpets and more percussion and the whole thing is on a constant upward arc in tiny repeated loops. At the top, a blistered acid synth right from the future sprays in like a light sabre. Its a dramatic, epic track with plenty of genuine musicality at its core." Like all legendary electronic songs it's quite the hypnotic sonic adventure... Enjoy!
Now deciding which version of 'Sun E' to post has proven difficult as they're two quite different takes yet equally alluring. The 'Original Mix' is a hypnotic techno/ funk workout while the 'Tempelhof Remix' builds a nice downtempo groove that comes alive (moreso) with acoustic guitar and handclaps about two minutes in. I'll go with the slightly more chilled of the two for now, but trust me they're both fantastic - I'm buying the full EP!
This is the 'Tempelhof Remix' of 'Sun E'... Enjoy!
