After signing in recent years with the renowned labels Exploited, Multinotes or Nothing Is Real, we are happy to have him with us. For his debut on Mélopée Records, he hits hard with two fresh and retrofuturistic original tracks. Acid Cocktail is a true acid anthem to happiness and life. The main melody continually resonates in our head, carried by a rhythm from best Packims drum machines. Then, in the break, the piano House enchants the souls. And when the track drops, we are carried away in a burst of joy and smiles. The second one Horny Run is also full of good feelings. Light and sparkling, the music wanders between acid, house & Italo touch. A pure 90s inspired dancefloor retro hit ! Welcome to the wonderful Modular Project to remix the eponym track. The Milanese duet drops here a pure house banger, repeating the second melody in a groovy piano version and always keeping an acid touch. Perfect one for Indian summer. Our second remixer is none other than the talented Micropacer. He brings to the title Horny Run a real additional vibe between Italo and Synthwave. The chords are mastered, beautiful, sensitive. A hyper positive track !

Here is the new one by the talentutous Scottish-born Thai artist : Keep Me In The Light. Renowned for the quality of his incredible edits on the web, he drops here an epic and dancefloor release. "Rapid Bass Groover" is an efficient melodic track. Carried by a mastered rhythm, the melodic arpeggio reinforced by the twirling pads make positive thoughts soar on the dancefloor. It's time for unity in these dark times ;). Only Love must remain. The second original track "Neon Nights", quieter, is always filled with good feelings. The main melody is incredibly accompanied by sumptuous, haunting andsoft pads, leads. In the break time, the piano gives to the track a little and local House touch. Then, when the tracks drop, arms rise and we dance while dreaming. Our swiss army knife Brandski is back with a fast and powerful italotrance remix of the eponym track. It grooves, it's energetic, the steps follow one another and we let ourselves go… Happy to have again with us Aural Trace, for a pure body remix this time. He mainly focused on the melodic arpeggio and pads of the original to bring a more italo and acid touch. The remix grabs the listener's guts ! To close this wonderful remix series, AGLE is the right one ! The boss of the new imprint "Rewind It" gives to "Neon Nights" a magical disco-house touch. Really positive, it seems that the sun is always in our hearts listening to this tittle.

We are particularly honored to drop the first release by our friend PHAS3R, based in Lyon ! Through this EP, the artist most accurately expresses his roots between the 80s and 90s. Draw an equilateral triangle "Italo-Trance-Rave". You will find in its center the first two titles of the release: "After Burner" and "Megadrive". Two energetic and melodic tracks. "Mist", more focused on Italo Body Music, seems inspired by retro thriller films. Finally, the title "Echoes", slow, sensitive, melancholic, brings the dancers together on the floor. Close your eyes, it's time to fly ! Arkademode is back with a solid remix of the eponymous track. A flawless, super danceable and extremely effective remix!
