VARIOUS :: Sleep Is Commercial for Red Dot Relief

“Red Dot Relief is a call to action across the dance music community in a bid to raise money and spread awareness of the disaster stricken regions of Japan.

Spearheaded by Visionquest (Seth Troxler) & Friends alongside Crosstown Rebels and the Tuning Spork Efforts Team are trying to influence others to follow and donate whatever they can to the disaster fund by involving not only artists but the wider community in this cause including event organisers, promoters, club owners, clubbers, agencies, music labels and the supporting press.

We support RDR with 11 tracks from our best artists and friends collected in one free digital release.”

SARP YILMAZ // The World is not a Cherry Pie E.P.

Sarp Yilmaz is based in Istanbul, likes cats and punk rock, but no contemporary art. Aha. That is all pretty well, but what actually matters here is that he also produces fantastic house tunes. After numerous releases on labels such as Acker, Unfoundsound or Fassade, we are proud to present his latest EP on Broque, now. Not only couldn’t we agree more with its title The World is not a Cherry Pie, but it also contains five playful house tracks meandering in between organic jazz vibes, dubby deep house and old-school piano and vocal snippets. Apparently, Sarp covers a large chunk of the classic house music range and benefits from a great ability to play with vocals in a very charming way in order to make his tracks groove.”

OVERCAST SOUND // Holding Pattern Remixes [bsc_008]

“A follow-up to Overcast Sound’s first ep on basic_sounds, Holding Pattern Remixes takes the title track from the original ep and offers it up for remixing by three artists who have influenced the Canadian duo.

Chicago’s Area (aka m50) extends upon the dreamy deepness of the original, pulling sounds and patterns into the foreground to create a remarkably new groove. Hailing from France, Fingers in the Noise moves things into a grittier domain with a slightly overdriven low end and filtered swells that will surely please the dance floor. The most dramatic reworking comes from Vancouver’s The Automatic Message who strip the track of the more obvious dub techno references in favour of an ever-mutating techno excursion.”
