Pop Booth : Geometries [brq99]

Pop Booth is a our latest discovery, and one which makes our hearts beating faster: the native-born Pole Kamil Labanowicz enchants with an unbelievable debut EP, which embraces the listener with its euphoric melodies and hooks, and at the same time, shows a strong sense for deepness and house history. The title Geometries EP comes not by chance: in his main profession, Kamil works as a car designer for a famously elegant German car brand. His design approach – based on finding the right balance between quirky originality and catchyness – does not work for cars only but is applied in full perfection to the five tracks of his EP. Named after geometric shapes, the tracks combine light-footed melodies with Prescription-era deep vibes, what is best demonstrated by the elegant ‘Edges’. Putting emphasis more on the melodic side, the subtle yet rousing euphoria of ‘Curves’, ‘Lines’ and ‘Surfaces’ even recalls the likes of Rone. Obviously, rougher edges should not be missing in any good design, and hence, are present here through ‘Corners’, a percussive old-school deep house track, pushing straight for the dancefloor. Kamil’s Geometries by no means sound like the disoriented identification process often shown by debut releases, but seems as if they would have been in our ears and hearts already since ages. And one thing is certain: Pop Booth is here to stay.”

Blu.Sine : Can You Hear in Color [self released]

“Coloring the music and playing the colors. Combining the seemingly un-combinable. Coexistence of waves – light, sound, lines drawn by pen and thoughts. A collage of the past and the future, sharing much more than just the line between them. The message of aesthetics and darkness demands attention to reveal its essence; and combining the avant-garde, pop culture and original ideas demands more than apathy and narcissism. Do you dare to hear in color while the world is turning black-and-white?”
