Moscoman releases two new EPs of his 12-part series

Berlin-based underground techno artist, Moscoman has two new vinyl EP releases, on 28 April 2017 (Hot Salt Beef) and 26 May 2017 (Royal Amphibian International)  respectively, as part of his 12-part Treisar series. Moscoman’s Israeli background reflects in his work, as strong middle Eastern elements come through in his tracks.

Hot Salt Beef features tracks that are brooding and dark, yet make the listener want to be on the dancefloor. The A-side track Butchers has synthesized drum beats that evoke the image of glitter falling on a turntable. Divided Future on the B-side has layered percussion, that despite a steady beat manage to create an ethereal sound.

Royal Amphibian International is more of a dance EP than Hot Salt Beef, with its A-side track, Just Across The Nile, which fuse accordion sounds with an energetic bassline, making it perfectly poised to become a dance hit or 2017 music festival regular. Express Way, as its title suggests, make you recall images of the fast-paced city life with its irregular beat and snippets of vocals.

Both EPs are the perfect complement to what has already been released in the Treisar series, while having their own individual sound. He is currently on his European Spring tour until 27 May and can be seen at the Gottwood Festival in the UK in July, alongside respected names such as The Black Madonna and Christian Löffler.

Christian Löffler Releases New Max Cooper Remix Via Ki Records

Christian Löffler’s labyrinthine track Vind, off his latest EP, “Mares Remixes Pt1”, has been remixed by fellow electronic artist Max Cooper. Vind, along with the other tracks on the original Mare EP, has reached over 3.8 million plays on Spotify and thousands of views on YouTube and Apple Music.

Max Cooper’s style reflects his interest in the natural world, his love of music, and his successful attempts at exploring the intersection of the two. In his 8-minute remix of Vind, he adds a darker tone to the track by adding ambient drum sounds and house beats. The layers of the remixed track stays true to Löffler’s aim of mixing a somber mood with a happy one, while evoking a sense of a natural, wild landscape.

In the Max Cooper Vind remix, he shows his admiration for Löffler, by making sure that no unnecessary elements are added, but rather the progression is layered and the harmonies are brought forward. “It was one of those tracks that just seemed right to me,” says Loffler.
