Romane


Bart B More's highly anticipated release "Romane" finally drops today on Sound Pellegrino, which is now 1 year old, may the success continue. Some massive releases.

Romane is an instant crowd pleaser which relies on three simple ingredients: an unforgettable riff, a sick beat, and one of the most seriously earth shattering, body shaking, mind motivating alarm siren that just screams “get up and dance, young hero, it’s time to save the world”. Remixing the aforementioned triple threat could have proven tricky, so we carefully assembled a dream list of producers that could take up the challenge, and the magic happened. Truly one of the most perfect remix packages created since the invention of the wheel.

Parisian wonders, Youngunz alumni and overall little rascals French Fries and Bambounou chop up the melody, give it a friendly noogie and then proceed to take it with them to an afterparty in San Francisco curated by the Martin Brothers and a dude wearing a giant bacon strip costume. Sexy, classy, efficient and fun.

Up and coming Dutch producer Rubix takes the essence of the track and beautifully turns it into a crazy giant mariachi fiesta that litterally explodes in your ear. Seriously, I don’t know if the guy hired a complete latino horn section to come play this insane melody in his studio but the result is awesome beyond belief. This totally sounds like the house version of Delinquent Habits’ “Tres Delinquentes”.

Gucci Vump, the infamous top secret duo made up of Brodinski and Guillaume from The Shoes, deliver their first remix since their stellar Sha! Shtil! EP on Sound Pellegrino last fall. Focusing their energies on the siren, just the siren and only the siren, they bring it to a legendary level of ravy fierce funky house next levelness.

Boris Dlugosch


Punch! Proudly present

BORIS DLUGOSCH - (PHANTASY RECORDS) + Deadbots/No Disko/Punch! Residents and
introducing Monochorme - Saturday February 20th - @ The Good Bits

Punch! at The Good Bits (a small venue with a big heart!) host Phantasy records Boris Dlugosch alongside serious talent from Dublin\London/Canada.

Boris' latest production Bangkok has been one of the biggest records of the last 6 months, and was a stable in the sets of Erol Alkan, Boys Noize and Tiga. Almost 20 years as a producer and global Dj, Boris is one of Germany's most well known and respected Dj's.

Erol Loved Bangkok so much he signed it to Phantasy and the rest is history...

Deadbots are Dublin born Paul Kelly,and Vancouver born Nina Knezevic. They have cultivated a curious interest on the electro scene. Pulling influence from 80's synth pop, rock, disco, hip hop and techno. With a plethora of remixes both completed and upcoming for the likes of Hystereo, FCKN CREW, Arthur Baker, The Japanese Popstars, Humanzi, Meneo and OH SHIT, Ikki, and last years Deadbots’ track Watch Yo Back going to Number 1 on the Beatport Electro charts, the release of their 2nd EP featuring 36 Days & Someboday on New York’s OMG Recordings!With remixes by Hystereo & Heartache, and the upcoming release of thier 3rd E.P. featuring Much Better coming out soon on Satans Circus U.K. with remxies by SymbolOne/JackDied (Gooseflesh)/Hystereo/Arveene&Misk/ Fckn Crew they’re kept busy. Nominated for best live act at the slick dj dance music awards, their passion for music has seen them play at festivals, headline club nights and brought them to tear it up in Holland, Switzerland, UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, Norway and Ireland amongst others

Monochrome - more boy meets girl action, this time Dublin and London collide. Together the duo play the finest 80's, 90's hip hop and electro, while occasionally filtering in some modern beats. The Monochrome message is simple: they are here to remind people that the floor is for dancing on, ya see, hence being called the dance floor. Monochrome are made up of talented Irish design artist/DJ Jamie Delaney and London songstress/MC from Black Cherry – Miss Megane Quashie – hardest working soul girl in the UK, “this style is identical to none” (Eric B and Rakim)

Punch! Began in November of last year and has gone from strength to strength ever since: bringing quality house, techno and electro back to the venue that was previously Radio City. Residents Niall Dunne, JoshJoshJosh, Arveene and Colin Perkins take control of the music offering an alternative to stale overpriced Saturday nights in Dublin, cheap booze, great music and the lowest door prices in town even for guests.

Punch! Really is a breath of fresh air for the Dublin scene and has a host of International guests on the horizon.

Main room:
Boris Dlugosch (Phantasy), Deadbots, Colin Perkins, Ghostscene Dj's

Cave:
Monochrome Dj's (London), Niall Dunne, Josh Josh Josh

Lounge:
Nodisko Dj's

Tiga - Sex O'Clock (Lidell's Sex O'Cloak N Dagger)



On the 18th of January , Tiga released a series of remix 12"s for "Sex O'Clock", "Overtime", "Gentle Giant" and "Love Don't Dance Here Anymore", songs from his 2009 album Ciao! The ambitious project features some of the most respected and sought-after producers in dance music. "For these remixes, I looked to Titans. Standing on the roof of my greenhouse, I called out, 'Hey you, get off of that impossible cloud and into my car. We're gonna drive all night 'til we hit Remix City ! '" "I asked them, 'When can you have the remixes ready by?' They said, 'About a month from now.' I said, 'Time. That's precisely what the song is about. Use that.'" Tiga could not be more excited about these vinyl releases, and wants nothing more than fans to share in his enthusiasm. "If you purchase all four, I will write your name and credit card information in a special leather-bound book. Also one copy will include a silver ticket, which you can trade in for a golden ticket. Which does nothing." "I'm a dreamer. I see the world through groove-colored glasses, ever watching the horizon for the whole world to come dancing into my arms."
