Two producers, a French and a Mexicano, who are living in two different cities in France have been composing an EP together. The guys have never crossed paths, and have still yet to meet in person. We are talking about Kubebe from Lille and Leonor from Tournus. The love that they have in common for each other’s music forged their desire for this collab to happen. The Midnight Man EP was created using a Ping Pong process, taking about two weeks. The result is a beautiful 80’s driven EP including one slower and one uplifting original as well as two splendid remixes by German synth master Lauer and the Swedish Elfenberg duo from Stockholm. What a package!

Kid Simius – Andalucia EP
Deny reality! It’s just a dream… Berlin based producer Kid Simius is delivering his Andalucía EP via Feines Tier label. An hommage to the Flamenco culture of his homeland on the one hand as well as the Spanish Italo Disco scene in the 80s on the other. Typical drums, euphoric synths & pads, hammering arpeggios and a powerful voice by Flamenco singer Ana Sola are glued together just perfectly to a desiring anthem. On top Sarah Wild rearranged an acid driven version and Echonomist dropped a boiling last-minute mix leaving only scorched earth.
