Massive Tracks Vol. 3 by Sound Mass Records

“I share the belief of many of my contemporaries that the spiritual crisis pervading all spheres of Western industrial society can be remedied only by a change in our world view. We shall have to shift from the materialistic, dualistic belief that people and their environment are separate, toward a new conciousness of an all-encompassing reality, which embraces the experiencing ego, a reality in which people feel their oneness with animate nature and all of creation”

Albert Hoffman.

There is not much I can add to this quote other than… I personally prefer mushrooms and I believe hallucinating is something every human being should experience at least once in their lifes… On a side-note I suggest its done as a way to connect with the earth, not just for recreation.

That said, this track is not about any of these substances, instead its like an hybrid tribute to Acid House and Acid Jazz and what they represent for me… art  revolution, doing things differently, spontaneity and improvisation.

Acid will be out on Leed’s  imprint  LS City Records on Summer 2010 as part of a 2 track EP, my debut EP.  Soon more info about this.

LS City Records is a burgeoning UK label who are consistently releasing quality tracks, their roster includes people like Richard Dinsdale, Style Of Eye, Alex Kenji, Lissat & Voltaxx, Benny Royal, to name  a few… and their releases get constant support by influential names such as Dubfire, Erick Morillo, Style Of Eye, Robbie Rivera, Fedde Le Grand, Dean Newton, Ant Brooks, to name but a few.

Phillip O – Acid (Original Mix) *PREVIEW* by Phillip O

soo… if it ain’t got that swing?

We all know those words, words that been repeated countless times since its conception back in 1931. Words that are relevant today more than ever, in an era where the gap between music and technology is practically non-existing, specially when speaking about the music that we love the most, Electronic Music.

“It ain’t the melody, it ain’t the music
There’s something else that makes the tune complete”

It is an honor for me to be in BEEF Records, label from Australia/Czech Rep who has hosted tracks by artists such as Robert Babicz, Kreon, Ramon Tapia, Moonbeam, Animal Trainer, Solead, Hirtenfellner, Alex Kenji, MOS, Deepchild, Boris Brejcha, Martinez, D-Nox, Jamie Stevens, Shades of Gray and others.

BEEF records is proud to present the “1950” EP by New York based duo Nunzi & Rohin. In this extraordinary EP the future meets the past – modern production techniques are well blended with the vibe of the early 50’s funk and jazz era. This EP is ready to rock any dance floor with it’s melodic approach and well familiar structure as well as it loose but jacking jazzy grooves.

On remix duties Beef label heads Shades Of Gray have resampled the main hook and given their signature touch to the production. This colourful remix has been getting hammered in the clubs and it really brings the crowd to the boil.

Dirty Bird’s Talal & Zoi approached the track in a more stripped back tech house way, which is just what you need to fit it perfectly in your dj set. Colombian maestro, Phillip O has delivered the 3rd remix which represents a modern deep house edit without any lack of energy.

This EP is specially blended for dance parties of all kinds. Play it loud.

Celebrate with me for the last time in this iconic club that is saying goodbye after 8 years of great music and parties… pinpointed by several mags and TV channels like A&E as the second best club in Latin America. (correct me if I’m wrong)

I miss it already.

The roots of mandragora bear a resemblance to the human form. Magically speaking, there are male and female mandrakes. The female form, its roots forked and looking like a pair of human legs, is the most sought after. The male, on the other hand, has a single root. It was the female form that was carved in the Middle Ages (in Germany and France) into manikins. It was believed that they brought good luck and wealth. it is worth mentioning that the mandragora flowers are hermaphrodite.

-

This is my first ever original finished track, Mandragora, is out this week on Sound Mass Records from Turkey, its got support from Ant Brooks, DJ Chus, Eric Entrena, Alex Young, D.Ramirez, Raymundo Rodriguez, Jose Cabello… among others. The people seem to love it, see for yourself on this VIDEO I made on my gig last week at Piso 41 here in Bogota, which explains why UK DJ Jamie Fisher, the head honcho of the burgeoning Leeds label, LS City Records, has charted it on the 3rd spot of his Beatport top 10 for March 2010, adding up to the list of artists who support this massive Tech House cut.

The track comes out on a Various Artists compilation which includes tracks by Sound Mass Artists, of course it couldn’t go without a track by its creator, Utku Dalmaz.

Release Date: Feb 19th 2010 on Beatport.

2010 – Is Disco House Back? is the way Jim Breese from the UK begins his article on his website about our new track Luz De Luna… Being such a good write and having nothing to add to it, I’ll just copy/paste here for you to read yourself…

2010 – Is Disco House Back?

If so, it’s no bad thing. Amongst all of the creativity oozing from House music, it could also be suggested that sometimes, the fundamentals of what it is has been lost.

It’s a vibe & it’s a feeling. One that resonates deep from the dance floor. Looking back to the mid nineties, when I was the other side of the booth, clubbing frequently at ‘The Ministry’ & ‘Wobble,’ the Disco/Filtered sound was huge & it turned the clubbing ‘FUN’ dial to +10. Around this time, I started to DJ & it was tracks such as Todd Terry’s ‘Jumpin’ & DJ Sneak’s ‘Polyester EP’ that were my fail-safes to pull from the back of the stucco. Back then, records were solely about the groove & everything hinged on finding & then working that golden Disco sample.

Fast forward to Feb 2010… I headed to Colombia to play at our very popular Hed Kandi residency at Piso 30. It was also a chance to drop into the studio of Bogota’s rising Tech producer Phillip O. What followed was a couple of days writing, some incredible Colombian food, a spontaneous Sax recording from Ibiza based jazz musician- The Lovely Laura & a truly memorable gig that was rocking till the late AM.

With so many influences, what could a track like this sound like? Straight up, rolling, Disco House of course!
