Straight Music starts this New Year with a very strong release. It welcomes the English producer Deepack who is DJ, producer and Label Manager of the new label Cream Couture Records. He started his career in the Underground scene in the late 90′s and since he has developed a real personal and extremely rich vision of electronic music.

With this EP, Depaack offers two strong Deep House anthems that will literally burn the dancefloor thanks to powerful rhythm and happiness spirit. To delight the release, Straight Music asks one of the best 2012-duo to remix the track Eyes On Me. Amine Edge and Dance transcend the original to give us a new version fully embedded with their very own musical touch. To close this release, the Lille-based label inserts a second remix of the British duo Him_Self_Her. This remix will bewitch the crowd and embark the dancers to an open-minded journey.

After successful Remixes EP, Electronical Reeds takes this year yet again an unexpected sidestep music wise during this month of December. Indeed, after the first “Soft Memory” Ep from Kreiss & GFP, embracing the “inner self” released in December 2011, the label entrusts its new introspection to the Parisian producer Ephti, one of Kreiss & GFP duo members. After having remixed Uner’s track Sixthousand released a few days ago, Ephti continues to charm our ears with his very personal approach of the electronic music. He immediately takes us into his universe of piano and aerial sounds on a subtle and bewitching background. Both titles show brilliantly the talent and the open-mindedness of this producer but also the musical diversity of this label, decidedly atypical in the current musical landscape.

Thanks to three EP’s and two remixes on Electronical Reeds, the Parisian duo Kreiss & GFP has successfully established themselves in the electronic music scene. Today the label releases a “Remixes EP” which provides a new vision of the prolific duo’s original work where each of the remixers come with a very personal touch.

The Spanish artist UNER, from Diynamic and Cadenza, revisits “State For A Track”, which while keeping the soul of the original production, becomes a real dancefloor hit. The Canadian producer Rennie Foster who in the past worked with labels such as F Communications, Subject Detroit and Rebirth, reworks the track “Vis-à-vis”, originally composed in collaboration with DJ Kaine, to develop a vision tinged by the sound of Detroit and its ruthless efficiency. After having remixed Kollektiv Turmstrasse and Oliver Schories, German artist Alex Q selects “The Consumence” and its hypnotic voice of Renan Cadoret. Through seven minutes of the track, he embarks the listeners on a unique journey into his Deep universe. DJ Kaine, while selecting the same title, chooses an opposite approach and composes a pronounced Tech House atmosphere while sublimating the Renan Cadoret’s sweet voice. This “Remixes EP” closes with a special remix. Ephti, half of the duo Kreiss & GFP, reappropriates the track Moving Keyboards and reworks its atmosphere through the universes of his solo project.

This EP decompartmentalizes borders of genres and styles thus sweeping a large spectrum of electronic music. From emotion to dancefloor, it is inevitably one of highlight releases of the end of this year. Read more

After the first “Versus EP” released in June of last year, Electronical Reeds presents again an encounter of two artists of the label for a new EP in the Versus series. The Brussels-based Felix Cage and the Parisian Ephti, new solo project of one half of the duo Kreiss & GFP, have interlaced their musical universe and explored new musical directions. Strengthened by their different EP’s on the label, the two friends are open to a contrasting and ripened travel into the musical world of one another. Through his title Horizon Badwater Ephti held his hard-hitting baseline typical to the Kreis & GFP duo but enriched with hypnotic sounds that offer a unique atmosphere oscillating between energy and calm. With his remix, Felix Cage preserves the powerful approach title has with his own sounds, including his special touch of synths and offers an equally effective title on the dancefloor. The EP ends on the bewitching Manta Ray that deploys its essence in softness and progression. Like the calm before the storm, Felix Cage and Ephti offer a musically rich EP with highly contrasting mood.s Read more

Faithful to its approach to discover emerging artists, Electronical Reeds welcomes for this new release the Brussels-based artist Fady One. DJing since 2004, she starts organizing events in 2007 first with “Soirées Secretes”, then later in 2009 with “Zukunft”, concept that became a place to be in Brussels nightlife. The love of German sound clearly inspires Fady in her productions resulting in an EP oscillating between melodic Minimal and Techno.

The title track opens with a powerful rhythm with plenty of light thanks to a sweet melody, accentuated by cellos that lead the ambience to darker and emotional piece. This approach drags smoothly its audience to a certain melancholy and darkness. Davide Napolitano starts with a more percussive rhythm than the original mix. The different elements keep coming faster creating quickly a more dancefloor dynamic that is more efficient and sustained. The remix speeds things up while the original track takes time to install the atmosphere. He retains this melancholy touch untouched despite the pressure in the rhythm. Read more
