ROTCIV is back with his new EP Memory, which marks the 20th release on Beartraxs label Melodize. Throughout the record, the Berlin-based and native Brazilian producer explores his signature dark, mysterious, and atmospheric vibes shaped by the underground and queer club nights and dance-floors that fuel his sound, refined over almost 30 years behind the decks. Maintaining Melodizes specialized sound deep-rooted in moody electronic principles, the EP opens with Memory, a piercing, dark, synth dynamic alongside rich tonal textures in both harmony and melodies alike. Unapologetic, yet calming and reminiscent of a slow drive through the winter nights; cold, yet bold, sharp, and comforting. First to remix Memory with a nostalgic, synth-heavy 80s remix is Frankfurt-based DJ, producer, and visual artist Chinaski. Integrating his signature bold synth hooks into the track, the remix features a bouncier approach with re-envisioned acoustic percussion and catchy synth arps, along with an eery dark disco feel. On the B side, Rotciv kicks in with Trintage, which gives a sinister sensation with its hypnotising bass synth lines alongside contrasting, choir-like pads. Seeping with articulate poly-rhythmic synth arps, Trintage guides the listener to be indulged into a dream-like state on the border between both digital and analogue soundscapes, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. Next up is New York-based and founder of Samo Records, Facets, who takes on the next remix for Trintage with a more electro-grunge techno approach consisting of heavier four to the floor kicks in company of Rotcivs hypnotic textures. Having shifted the synth melody rhythmically, a sense of space and tension is created. One last remix of Memory by Melodizes own label founder, Beartrax, rounds out the EP. Available exclusively via digital bonus, Beartrax features his deeply hypnotic aesthetic by driving in ethereal synths alongside cosmic arps and slow-rolling rhythmic and pulsating grooves.
