Waft with the smoke of hushed late nights in dim rooms with velvet curtains. Feel the soul of the music in its lush instruments and intricate arrangements. Peer into your own history and connect your own emotions to the fantasy.
"Touching the Void" featuring Mikezilla leads the fantasy with a heart-felt plea. With a backdrop of whirling organs and subtle beats, the plea is more than a raw sorrow but an urban lament. Empathize in the complexities of urban life when you let the song take you over.
Living then takes a dissonant twist in "Onna No Hito" which means Woman in Japanese. Stir up nostalgia with a familiar-sounding ditty. Feed in texture and modern beats and the track conjures up a futuristic 8-bit movie about connections. Maybe it is about a male robot and a female robot in a smoky dim room. Maybe it is the complex urban future reminiscing about simpler times.
Either way, connect and empathize with starRo on this 2-track single.

"Completely unique, took me somewhere nice!"

"Kokoro is a release which centers around the bittersweet moments in life; moments which are initially hard to deal with but often yield something more positive later. The word 'kokoro' is Japanese and means 'heart.' Each of these tracks come from the heart and from moments in my life which have been defining, from difficult goodbyes to nights spent alone listening to the reassuring patter of raindrops. If that's all a bit heavy don't worry because the EP rounds off with something a little more thematically upbeat; a song about dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are so cool."
(Kaiori Breathe)

"Would love to hear this in a very large venue. This would so work as a soundtrack - it's unlimited."
(Damian B @ Friedmylittlebrain)

"Very much like Kokoro! It's something I would play on my radio show."

"Wonderful composition and production!"

Music from different eras has its special atmosphere, and of course it's not possible to completely recapture the atmosphere of the past seen only on photos and in movies, but for musicians it at least provides an opportunity to rethink some of their ideas and create a unique eclectic sound. That's what "Bubikopf Girl" EP by Tree Bosier is all about. The idea was to combine retrospective and atmospheric harmonies of jazz and ambient music with hip-hop rhythms.
Things that may have inspired Tree Bosier to create this release: Polish School of Posters, Sea of Japan, Russky Bridge...

"Love every bit of this!"
(Damian B @ Friedmylittlebrain)

"Wonderful range of tracks, varying in pattern and form. An absolute treat!"
(Jake Salter @ Knowledge Magazine)

"So much soul!"

"It's Still You" sees Andy Jay & S-Tee and Charlene, who gave you "Spiralling," team up again to produce another classic. It's a wonderfully simple yet beautiful track. The bouncy two-step beat is complemented perfectly by Charlene's warm, soulful tones. You'll be singing it days after you've heard it. Understated production, an infectious melody and captivating lyrics, simply put - it's stunning.

"Holy remixes batman, every track on here is so uniquely delicious I feel like I'm bringing on Lucky Charms with a Sour Patch Kids chaser. The original track by Andy Jay & S-Tee and Charlene is appropriately timed for release right around Valentine's Day, with an uplifting vibe of love and appreciation to make your candle lit dinner one to remember, or if that's not your thing, check out the dirty garage remix by Akira. And with two more appearances by DJ S.K.T and L Phonix & Yllavation, this EP's got enough juice to put the bump in your Valentine's Day bump and grind."

"The 'Window Seat EP' is a collection of tracks written within a very close period. I even had period of jumping between maybe 2 or 3 different tracks at one time which helped the process not get stale and enabled me to keep fresh ears on them."
(ID3)

"Really superb, love the palette, the vibe, the vocal snippets. Awesome!"
(Damian B @ Friedmylittlebrain)

"A fine selection of ambient beauty from ID3. Loodma Recordings is hands-down one of my favourite downtempo labels right now."
(Jake Salter @ Knowledge Magazine)

"Beautiful is a word too often used, but I can't think of a word more appropriate."

"Coast" got it's title when Minor Rain had a proper listen to the track right after finishing it. He closed his eyes and saw a beautiful sunset at a coast. The tune itself is characterized by exciting percussion and bassline with a diverse sound structure and elements creating a really cool texture.
Quite the same idea and feeling continues in the track named "Cross the River" which is easy to remember because of the magical half-whispering vocals.

"The textures in 'Coast' are a perfect addition to the mix. 'Cross the River' tops the release off in style with the most soothing of atmospherics and vocals."
(Jake Salter @ Knowledge Magazine)

"Loving the vibe of 'Coast'!"
(B.Traits @ BBC Radio 1/1Xtra)

"Lovely, deep and intricate!"

"You Shine" featuring Snowflake is a distant, dissonant and delicate digression into the two-track single produced by Ficci. This audible appetiser piles on the romanticism; winding it's tendrils around the listener, Snowflake's vocals penetrate the soul. These beautifully heart-wrenching lyrics will ensure the knees waver. The subtly harmonised pianos interweave into one wonderful concoction of tears and joy. Pure emotive pleasure is what the listener can expect, so much so that the repeat button will become worn thin. Fragile and pure, "You Shine" is sure to sink you into your chair.
"Sweet" is as the title suggests; sugary, sensual and seductive. This musical main-course reminds the listener that this is EDM. Potent and experimental drum patterns prick and prod at the melody line, forcing the staccato riffs to playfully caress the ears. As the track unfolds the fall into structured chaos begins with glitches that dismantle the mind, that feed the brain the sound sensation that is desires.

"Some of the most creative, relaxing music I have heard this year. A lot of attention to detail. I can't pick a favourite track."

After their first release of the "Chemical Burn" EP, and a follow-up remix album, The Walton Hoax return with a new 3-track release "All Recklessness Aside," an organic blend of soul, dubstep and hip-hop, topped off with waves of lush vocals. Where "Chemical Burn" had a gloomy vibe, the title track this time evokes a blissful and intense fall into the warm depths of an Indian summer.
The second track on the single is a breathtakingly deep remix of the title track, made by the Danish electronics wizard Galimatias.
The release ends with an accompanying track "Icarious" - a collaboration with the upcoming Dutch producer Nymos, revealing a new twist to the story of Icarus. Nymos constructed a cathedral of ambient sound, in which the rewritten myth roams free and wild.
"All Recklessness Aside" balances between tension and surrender, taking the listener to new heights and then dropping into an ocean of existential marvel. Close your eyes and let yourself float on top of this chilled sea of tranquility.

"3 amazing tracks! The original is a pure dream!"

"Spiralling EP" has a mix for everyone, with smooth chords and silky strings combined with the wonderful vocals from Charlene. Andy Jay & S-Tee's re-edit mix has rolling beats with a punchy bassline and hard hitting bongos. L Phonix & Yllavation remix has a funky bass and a live feel to it. Odiggity remix has stomping beats with a punchy bass and an old school garage feel to it. Alexander Owen remix has beautiful piano riffs and smooth beats to round off this must have EP.

"Andy Jay & S-Tee's 'Spiralling' was one of our favourite vocal tracks of last year (2011). It was on heavy rotation for the whole summer. Now they have decided to get together with some friends to put out four new mixes of the track. Andy Jay & S-Tee have created a new mix themselves and Odiggity, L Phonix & Yllavation and Alexander Owen have all put their spin on the tune."

Mindex has worked quite a long time on this EP, going through experiments, trial and error, trying to blend elements of different styles well. As a result the most dense sonic consistence was achieved, saturated over the entire spectrum.
Mindex has collected four tracks for the EP, all full of bright details, glitches, harmonies and melodies, with dubsteppy basses cutting through the air here and there.
In the track "Rain" listener's ears are tickled by nice grainy sounds with all the other components of the track strung on these.
While listening to "Full of Love" you should put on your wetsuit as there's plenty of water. Seems like it's a spring or creek flowing down.
The track "In Search of Truth" helps you to find the truth about contemporary electronic music without any limits in ability of self expression.
"Melting" is a non-standard combination of jazz, filthy electronic bass and crunchy beats.

"This is awesome! Love the atmosphere - it's timeless!"
