Nolan - Bitter Sweat


Brighton based DJ and producer Nolan is making serious waves (and not just on the beachfront). His latest release featuring the delectable Amber Jolene on vocals is currently riding high in the Beatport charts with remixes from Finnebassen & Miguel Puente on Germany's über-hot OFF Recordings.
Bitter Sweat from is his newest release is a grittier modern mold with a hooky electronic bass, an amalgamation of vocal chops, and disco house chords driving the track. Nolans formation of the track relies on a simple yet effective movement of stripping back the groove to an atmospheric breakdown, followed by the introduction of new elements precipitously.

Aeroplane – In Her Eyes (Tiger & Woods Remix)


"In Her Eyes" is the first release of Vito De Luca's aka. Aeroplane's label, AEROPOP. It is also the first original Aeroplane material since 'Save Me Now' and the In-Flight Entertainment compilation.
Aeropop will be mainly dedicated to Vito's side projects and collaborations with different artists under numerous aliases, leaving him some space to play around with different genres and sounds. But to celebrate the launch of the label, Vito decided to make the first Aeropop release an Aeroplane one.
'In Her Eyes' features Chicago House legend Jamie Principle on the vocals. Vito met Jamie on New Year's Eve 2011 in Sydney and they instantly got along. The idea to make a record together came about 4 seconds into the conversation, and from what we've heard it won't be a one shot.
The original is an 80's fueled 'DMX' funk song, with Jamie's vocal giving that extra real-ness and depth, including old-school spoken word and all. We are instantly back in Chicago when Jamie screams 'Don't Go !' in the bridge like sheÕs never coming back, leading into a classic Aeroplane euphoric breakdown and a butt-shaking song-end.
The remix package is reflective of Vito's latest influences as heard in his now famous not-so-monthly Soundcloud mixes. He chose all the remixers himself.
First one is from Italian anonymous-ish act Tiger & Woods who deliver a bass-rolling mix that has a 'Da Funk' feel, making best use of all the parts and chopping them insanely a la Tiger & Woods . Road testing proved this one to be a real big track.
Chopstick & Johnjon from SUOL Recordings also joined the cast, with an amazing deep house take on the track. This one is definitely for the late sweaty and sexy club nights.

Kolombo - What Could Make Me Think (Atapy Remix)


Kolombo, aka Olivier Grégoire, is one of the most prolific and reknowned producers & DJs from Belgium. Infamous for hard hitting booty bass, Kolombo releases another sublime sound with ‘What Could Make Me Think,’ out on the relatively young label Mahayana Records based in Athens, Greece. An instant favorite, a dancefloor go-to banger, and even an everyday kind of track, it just works all day, everyday, to get you down and dancing. The EP is graced with two remixes, the first from Mi4L favorite Atapy. Atapy is one of my absolute favorite artists for remixes, his interpretation always matches my level of love with the original, and this one is no exception. Drawn out synths, some extra bangs and cowbells, and a more playful tease of a build up make this remix straight gold. DSF‘s remix chops it up with broken up vocals, distorted synths, and harder hitting beats to give it a more gangsta house feel.

Roberto Palmero & Redondo - Underground Feel


Spanish "Roberto Palmero" is a producer and dj with a short but promising career in music production. His subjects are born from the finest Deep, to the House with touches of pure tribal sounds, which is reflected in any of its references. Roberto teamed up with Redondo on his first EP released on NTFO's label "Sintope" It comes with an amazing remix by 2DIY4 producers Amine Edge & DANCE.

Waze & Odyssey – Love Attack



Waze & Odyssey take a break from launching their own label, recording a guest mix for Skream and Benga’s radio show and remixing the likes of TEED and Disclosure to return to Disco Bloodbath Recordings, where they provided a much acclaimed remix to the label’s debut release, Damon Martin - "That Ain’t Right", earlier this year.
The two originals here, "Love Attack" and "She’s A Hooker", continue where they left off, providing no-nonsense club trax with a nod to the past and an eye on the future. On the flip, Mark E delivers an outstanding remix, cross-pollinating 80s proto-house with vintage electronics and a distinct “kosmische” flavour to create a mutated, deceptively simple, dancefloor winner.
