Annett Gapstream – Halluzination [Artminding] Annett Gapstream is back on Artminding with her first EP. Two originals show her distinctive and characteristic musical variety drawn by vivacious DJ gigs all over Europe. Just as her international career, also her latest productions are picking up speed and reflect the constant process of heading a little further. For the title track “Halluzination” Annett Gapstream premiered herself in the recording booth of the studio and created a dynamic, highly memorable iteration towards illusional, hallucinatory messages that wreathe the audience in a higher mental state while dancing. Surrounded by a lofty melody and very present drums the track reveals an entire new range of melodic techno creativity. Meanwhile “Surrealism” and its warm bassline conveys a more soothing or relaxed atmosphere with lots of potential to dream away during clubby mornings. The whole idea of this release is fulfilled by three extraordinary remixes. Amsterdam based electronic music gem Hollt, shooti Read More

Enai – Ira [Atlant] 2023 continues at pace as we head to northern Catalonia to welcome Enai for his Atlant debut. The Girona resident has steadily been clocking up releases for the likes of Oddity, Running Clouds and Eklektisch. Now Enai delivers three spellbinding originals. Leading the way is 'This Is A Dream' which showcases Enai's eclecticism and originality as an artist. Fusing melodic synth driven techno with rave friendly celestial vocals, hard edged dynamics and dance-floor focused dynamics - this one has it all. 'Ira' delves further into Enai's production bag of tricks to create a beautiful indie influenced gem that brings to mind the pioneering work of Rufus Du Sol with its catchy hook. We can see this one hitting many a Spotify playlist as well as being a defining moment in the club. 'Aneris' rounds the EP off nicely and is one of those tracks DJs will love with its off kilter synth line, flowing melodies, crisp beats and driving dance groove.
