Release Notes:
01. SLOK - Feel Alive feat. My Favorite Robot (LOPAZZ & CasioCasino Remix) [Circle Music Germany | Circle 038_6]
Italian DJ and producer Slok is no stranger to Circle Music. In 2010 he released his great album “Rain” on Circle Music after the previous released releases “Funky Finger” and “Freak” in 2009. In 2011 he followed up a release on Circle Music, “Rocco's Hard Scene” incl. a stunning remix by Hermanez ,followed. For his first single in 2012 Slok, he invited brothers in crime „My Favourite Robot“ aka Voytek Korab, James Teej and Jared Simms from Canada to sing the vocals. Lately these three guys had a release on Life And Death and were remixed by Art Department. On Top of this nice package we have Subb-An who had a few releases on Damian Lazaru’s Crosstown Rebels or Culprit with several hits and finally label mate Lopazz from Berlins Get Physical together with his film producer CasioCasino.
A1. Slok feat. My Favourite Robot „Feel Alive“ (Slok's Original Vocal Mix) // The original version of „Feel Alive“ convinces with really clear and crispy beats right from the beginning and it seems only logical that Electronic Petz label owner Slok continues with 90's house quoting elements like warm organ chords and an oldschool styled bassline and melody. The sleepy Vocals are a really nice contrast to the electronic colours of the arrangement. This one is deep, sexy and progressive.
B1. Slok feat. My Favourite Robot „Feel Alive“ (Subb-an Remix) // British DJ and producer Sub-Ann takes the original and brings it more to the underground. A very progressive bassline, disturbing synthesizers and and pretty playful melodic parts and sequences makes this remix very tight and diversivied.
B2. Slok feat. My Favourite Robot „Feel Alive“ (LOPAZZ & CasioCasino Remix) // Really close to the atmosphere the original spreads Lopazz & CasioCasino start their remix. Vocals and Chords are nearly the same but then a little acid line comes around and Lopazz & CasioCasino show pleasure at playing with the highs. Later on a dark and heavy bassline as well as big room synthesizer sounds are making this really versatile.
Digital Bonus // For all the lover’s who like having a dub version, here you have it, as a Digital Bonus Track!

02. Verche - Simple As That (Estroe Remix) [System Recordings | SYS2187]
Verche returns with the sublime prog-meets-tech 'Simple As That', featuring remixes from Ian O'Donovan, Estroe and Verche & Jazzyville. Hernán Cattáneo has already charted the Estroe remix, while John Digweed supported the fine Ian O'Donovan re-rub on Transitions 409.
Estroe Bio
Estroe is driven by emotions “I get restless when I can’t work on my own melodies. It’s such a good outlet for my emotions”. There you have it in a nutshell. Dutch Estroe lives for her music. It’s electronic, it’s beat driven and it’s full of emotions." Together with techno hotties like Anja Schneider, Mistress Barbara and Monika Kruse, Dutch.Estroe belongs to an elite club of female DJ’s that made it to the top. Whether it’s behind the turntables in the famous Fuse in Brussels, the Watergate in Berlin or an underground club in Tokyo, Estroe knows how to tune in and drop the right beats. She likes to play versatile, techno infused sets with room for deep undercurrents as well as pure dancefloor work. Her style is warm, subtle but at the same time very energetic. As you'll find out when you drop by at Klinch in the Amsterdam based club Melkweg, where Estroe has as residency.
Things really took off when Estroe started producing her own tracks back in 2003. In hindsight it was an unconscious response to the skull breaking beats of those days. She learned everything there was to know about hard- and software. “For months I tried every piece of music software I could get my hands on. Till I finally got it right. It was important for me that I could produce tracks myself, without the help of an established producer.” In her first productions Estroe went back to the early days of Detroit techno. Back when people like Carl Craig, Kenny Larkin and the British group The Black Dog caressed their keyboards instead of beating them up. With her sophisticated, warm and elegant style she soon appeared on the radar of dj's like Laurent Garnier, Ripperton and John Digweed. The latter was blown away by Estroe's minimalist masterpiece Driven and promptly asked her for a remix on his Bedrock label.
It’s not about maximum compression, distorted hi-hats or full on bassdrums on Estroe’s delicate productions. No, it’s all about atmosphere. “I want to hit people’s emotional spot, being it comfort, peace or excitement”, she says about her music’s primary aim. But make no mistake, singles like Updraft (Mezzotinto), Beat Box Contest ( Dualblock) And Can't Sleep (Connaisseur) are clearly aimed at adventurous dancefloors worldwide.
EevoNext releases classics from the Dutch techno vaults but also breaks new talent. That’s where Estroe comes in. “I like to scout and coach new talent”, she admits. “I’ve been in this business long enough to know the pitfalls.”
With her debut album on Connaisseur Recordings released in November 2009 (with Miss Kittin among the confirmed guest appearances) and an in-box full of remix requests, chances are high you’ll be dancing to an Estroe tune this weekend. Things are looking bright for Estroe, hence she has given up her job last year to concentrate fully on her tunes and deejaying. “This is what I always wanted.” And trust us, this is what you want too.

05. Matias Vila - Volviendo al Principio [Stripped Digital | Promo]
Born in Mar del Plata, Argentina Matias Vila had his first contact with music very young, the son of a musician, began playing guitar and piano inspired by different groups of various musical styles such as Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. His passion for electronic music was driven by bands like Kraftwerk, Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre.
In 2000 Matias decided to travel to Europe and settled in Spain in Palma de Mallorca, where he appeared as guitarist and vocalist in several places. After his trip to Barcelona and London in 2002 he became fully immersed in dance music. DJs and producers such as Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed and Sasha were the motivation to experiment with vinyl.
In 2003 he changed route to Alicante, crossing from deep house/progressive to more underground, influenced by producers such as Richie Hawtin (Plastikman) or the minimal Luciano, to begin to merge with the more hypnotic tech house.
In 2006 began his career as a producer. Thus he was able to gather all his musical influences to create a very personal sound scheme.. Now based in Barcelona Matias's music is an electronic collage of deep-progressive with tracks signed to the likes of Stripped Digital.
Uner – Universe EP A1. Sol B1. Luna Digital Exclusive. Cuac
Innovative Spanish producer Uner is the next to step up on the Visionquest imprint with his ‘Universe EP’. This epic three-tracker showcases his unique sound and musical background on a mesmerizing, trippy ride of modern electronica.
A-side Sol (Latin for Sun) represents the bright side of the universe. Beautifully epic in length and sound, detailed percussion leads the way as melodic keys creep and swell through the suspense of continuous rolling builds. The melodic flourishes demonstrate Uners musical passion with perfect rhythm, leaving an all-engulfing big room track filled with techy wonderments.
Over on the flip, B-side Luna (Latin for Moon), steps into an intriguingly dark and weird territory. Eerie synths flow through spacey zaps and intricate layers of sound while a raw pumping bass surges forward. Dark keys emulate Uners musicality while haunting vocals echo and a dramatic build takes you on a hypnotic wave of melodics, dropping back into the floor rattling bass. A trippy, cinematic affair destined to swarm your mind and senses.
One of the most important names of the new generation of Spanish electronic producers, Uner has been able to release on highly acclaimed labels such as Diynamic, 2020 Vision, Get Physical and Defected, with his music championed by the likes of Laurent Garnier, Carl Cox and Luciano. Since 2011, aside touring the world as a DJ, Uner has been presenting his live gigs with an audio visual concept in which he uses state-of-the-art software and hardware (from iPads to mini midi keyboards) to explore his most solid, personal side. The artistic expansion of the Catalonian producer continues to grow, expressing his way of understanding electronic music from a musical point of view and from the centre of the dance-floor
