Solenoid is back with SLN019, this time Label owner Erta Ale shares the sides with the welcomed Italian duo we.ampsConnection, vibrations and affinity - all aspects that bring together a remarkable release between the two producers.'Suck my/ Oblivious' is the perfect example of the meaning of connection and keeping true to one's own “style”.'Drummy ya' is the essence of being eclectic and simultaneously dance floor oriented. A stormy chord combined with a twisty acid melody that clashes on the unexpected vocal break, moving onto the second part of the track where a stormy loop becomes raw and gritty yet arranged in an intentional and accurate manner. 'Suck my' is fast and "break" with a 4/4 beat making the arrangement experienced, at the same time , the electro baseline with the deep male vocal, throws the listener into its vortex of sound. Side B showcases Erta's experimental breakbeat track “Oblivious” , perfect for a sophisticated dance floor or a radio podcast. The last track “Odyssey” is one of the most intimate and hypnotic tracks by the record label owner. An atmospheric and even sentimental track which was created during his last South African tour.

One year after the release of his two first sell-out EPs, Madcat is back a new 4-tracker “Queens of Sand”. The Parisian producer takes us into a new story as rousing as mystical, continuing to break away from the codes of classic disco-house by blithely mixing them with hip-hop rhythms from across the Atlantic.

We are proud to celebrate our Tenth release with an ambient/downtempo special from sonic wizard Dan Handrabur. Rezpektiva features select cuts from the past that have made an impression on us over the years, released with the maximum respect. Rezpekt to HAN !
