Crimea X: The Cosmic Balearic Future Begins!!
Hailing from the far flung cosmos of Reggio Emilia, Italy’s coolest post rock, cosmic disco outfit, Crimea X launch a stellar EP of musical gems titled, ‘Phoros’, out on Hell Yeah this Summer. Get ready for pure, spaced out Balearic bliss as the Italo duo take you on a round trip journey to the electro cosmos and back.
Crimea X is the coming together of two offbeat, disparate characters, DJ Rocca (Ajello, Super Sonic Lovers, Maffia Sound System) and Jukka Reverberi from 90’s Italian cult rockers, Giardini di Mirò, who have often have been compared with the sound of Mogwai, Arab Strap, Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
DJ Rocca and Jukka were brought together by the common passion for cosmic imaginary soundscapes, where Kraut rock fuses with the predilection for Marxist thought and political stories of last century. The end product is a tantalising myriad of musical styles and tongue in cheek ethos, satirising the socio-political climate of our modern era. And their live shows really kick ass!‘Phoros’ packs in six quality tracks designed for the thrift thinking music fan in these cash strapped times. The EP includes remixes by Austrian minimal wunderkind, Florian Meindl, who gives the track ‘10PM’ an intelligent excursion in techno artistry, definitely one for the Sunday morning after parties. Hotly tipped Italian deep house duo, Enzo Elia and Martin Patino, provide a warmer touch to ‘10PM’. Throw in an extra bonus track, ‘A Year Later’ and we’re all in business.

New AJELLO remix to Pete Herbert on Maxi Discs!!
New imprint Maxi Discs continues its adventures into Tropical House Music with yet another killer release, this time put together by label boss and global jet-setting DJ Pete Herbert (Reverso 68/LSB). Heavily influenced by the musical direction of his DJ sets over the last year, a desire to really work the dance floor and a certain nostalgia for the house sounds of the 90s (when the site of white doves could make a grown man cry), Yo Drums is all about Pete getting back home after a long night spent driving the crowd wild and then switching on the laptop and the synths and trying to recapture the essence of that feeling in a track. And just like one of his DJ sets Yo Drums mixes elements of house, Italo and disco into a heady potion of dance floor dynamite.
Remixes come from highly talented Italian producers Ajello who take things back to the halcyon days of Nu Groove while adding subtle elements of the Cosmic and Italo sounds they love so much. And last but not least, Dicky Trisco who celebrates his obsession with the early house sounds of Network and seminal UK dance acts like Nexus 21 as he dubs things out and feeds those biorhythms.
