Jet Project Heads In The Clouds Debut Album Out Now On Beatport!

***DARKROOMDUBS*** JET PROJECT
HEADS IN THE CLOUDS (DEBUT ALBUM)
artist: Jet Project.
title: Heads In The Clouds
label: Darkroom Dubs
cat #: DRDCD004
release date: 6th July 2009


iDJ 'ALBUM OF THE MONTH' JULY 09

Read lots of press releases for forgettable albums recently? Luckily for all of us, this mighty collection of tracks doesn’t fall into that category. “Heads In The Clouds” is the work of Belfast’s finest exports of quality underground electronic music the Jet Project, and this dirty dozen is a showcase of some of their finest moments for Silicone Soul's Darkroom Dubs label.

Neatly stitched together with brand new material that takes in all their influences from deep & dubby house music to weird off kilter electronics and peak time dancefloor bombs, ‘Heads In The Clouds’ is true to its name, creating a mind-altering package of distorted delights. Already picking up plays from the likes of Andrew Weatherall, Francois K, John Digweed, Laurent Garnier, Silicone Soul and Heidi.

Jet Project are Belfast duo Timmy Stewart & John McIver, two enthusiasts that have been present and involved in Belfast's ever burgeoning club scene from its acid house beginnings to its post-troubles renaissance, holding current residencies at Stiff Kitten and Shine. This is the sound of the duo running at full tilt. Referencing their years of experience in control of the dance floor and pushing their studio work into effortlessly effective new shapes. A collection of ready-to-play, immaculately constructed hedonistic hymns, that lives very much in the moment, but will undoubtedly endure much longer. ....

With their ‘Heads In the Clouds’ but always one eye set firmly on the floor, it’s safe to say that the Jet Project are cleared for take off.

***SOMA RECORDS*** SILICONE SOUL
SILICONE SOUL NEW ALBUM
artist: Silicone Soul
title: Silicone Soul
label: Soma Records
cat #: SomaCD78
release date: 29th June 2009

iDj - "Fucking Superb!"
 
Dj - "...not only one of Scotland's most exciting and challenging dance acts but of Britain and beyond...Spooky widescreen genius!"

DMC UPDATE - "...not only is it their best album yet but can be regarded as a classic in any genre!"

365 MAG INTERNATIONAL  - "The overall quality of the music is extraordinary and the deepness of most tracks struck me right in the heart!"

DE:BUG - "Killer!"

DEEJAY MAG (SPAIN) - " An awesome work!"

RAVELINE - "Deliciously Beautiful!"

MIXMAG - "Epic...as polished as Man Utd's trophy cabinet!"

LAURENT GARNIER - "Simply Briliiant!"

WAGON REPAIR - "Perfect classic dance music by true underground heros!"



Marking the 10th anniversary of their debut production, Silicone Soul deliver a self-titled album featuring their greatest material to date, on their long-time home, Soma Records.

Silicone Soul are internationally recognised for quality productions over the past decade. One of the few concepts to eclipse the traditional image of a dance music group, they succeed as Orbital and Leftfield did in the past to deliver a self-titled project, and produce one of the few truly timeless albums of dance music. Their fourth studio album, ‘Silicone Soul’ encapsulates an experienced and broad musical spectrum, expressing a colourful history and delving deeper than before into their souls.

Introduced to the world on the Soma label, Silicone Soul were catapulted into conscious of the mainstream with the top 10 success of their 2001 anthem, ‘Right On, Right On!’ Refusing an invitation to perform on Top Of The Pops (BBC1), they stuck to their own agenda and as true musicians do, continued to produce material they believed in. Their last album, ‘Save Our Souls’, was awarded an album of the year by Beatmag and iDJ, gaining 5 stars across the board. Their second album ‘Staring Into Space’ also received a nomination for Best Album and House Act at the House Music Awards.

Silicone Soul’ is a journey; a memorybox of the past; snapshot of the present and vision of an optimistic future. Opening with ‘Koko’s Song’, a dedication to a fan who died suddenly, the melancholy yet enlightening atmosphere begins their self-titled story.

Dust Ballad II’ is the next EP release, a sensual and haunting record, it takes the listener into heightened dream-like realms. Gliding on to the laidback rhythms of ‘Language of the Soul’, with its hypnotic bass-driven melody and subdued vocals that seep with purity and mysticism.

A dub version of the first single released from this project, ‘Call of The Dub,’ will please old fans of Silicone Soul’s productions. Its archaic tapestry of sounds, including a train horn, bleeds with originality and drive. The tempo steps down for ‘David Vincent’s Blues’, a surreal ballad that references the lead character in 1960s sci-fi classic, ‘The Invaders’.

Silicone Soul have a unique ability to create intricate productions that stand the test of time, yet appeal to current dancefloors. ‘Hurt People, Hurt People’, ‘The Pulse’ and ‘Midnite Man’ each transcend traditional music labels and produce cinematic textures. ‘Seasons Of Weird’ treads into nostalgic territory, harking back to an early acid house sound, while still sounding entirely relevant.
 
Concluding the proceedings, ‘Dogs Of Les Ilhes’ was inspired by Craig's home village. Inspired by the sounds emitting from the silence of the night - hunting dogs howling and the bells of the church clock tower - it provides an eerie and epic close to this masterpiece. Dipping between eras and moods, ‘Silicone Soul’ has the depth of purpose and an enduring spirit.
 
Silicone Soul are the internationally renowned DJ and production duo, Craig Morrison and Graeme Reedie. The duo have led a long and distinguished career as flag bearers for Glasgow’s Soma Recordings since 1998, writing in between Craig’s studio in a small village in the south of France and Graeme’s Glasgow studio. Silicone Soul are as well-renowned for their production skills as their mixing abilities, with an idiosyncratic take on the house & techno sound that continues to evolve and produce deep, emotive electronic music.
 
Pioneering quality house and techno for the past decade, they have proven to be one of the most popular acts on their home label, Soma Records, the UK’s longest-running dance label. They tour prolifically, and have earned themselves worldwide recognition as one of the UK's finest exports and exponents of underground electronic music. They have held residencies at La Terrrazza (Barcelona), Circo Loco (DC10, Ibiza), The Arches and The Sub Club (Glasgow) and now the famous Café d’Anvers (Antwerp). They return again to La Terrrazza this summer to showcase their Darkroom Dubs label.
 
Since the release of Save Our Souls, in late 2006 and in-between constant touring, they have focused attentions on their Darkroom Dubs label. Regarded now by many as one of the UK’s most forward thinking electronic labels, it has become a formidable source of house and techno music, with recent releases by Sei A, Gary Beck, Jet Project, Afrilounge and Mirror Music (a collaboration between Graeme and Silicone Soul mastering man Dave Donaldson).

Silicone Soul have produced three critically acclaimed albums of sublime deep house, techno and electronica, each released on Soma, ‘A Soul Thing’ (2000), ‘Staring Into Space’ (2005) and ‘Save Our Souls’ (2006). An insatiable appetite for new sounds and ideas keeps them firmly at the cutting edge of underground electronic music and this project cements them as one of the leading acts of our times.

***SOMA RECORDS*** SILICONE SOUL DUST BALLAD II

artists: Silicone Soul
title: Dust Ballad II (Remixes)
label: Soma Records
cat #: Soma265
release date: 15th June 2009

Silicone Soul return with this their first single from the upcoming, self titled album. Craig & Graeme have really gone to town on this first release, presenting a monumental package of remixes for.... Dust Ballad II.
The Original plunges southward, generating a pressure cooker of deep pulsed tones and steamy pads. Alleviating tension with arhythmic melodic tones. There is little chance that dust will settle during this sublime after hours cut.
First up on remixes is the Swiss maestro Ripperton. Currently doing the damage with his remix of Stimming's 'The Kiss', here he injects some tech-tinged beats into the original, whilst using the strings to build an intense drama, as only Ripperton can. Killer Dub!
Next up are the hot paris based duo of Joan Coates and Adrien de Maublanc, otherwise known as Masomenos. Stripping things back, they take on a relentless ride of low slung groovy house, dropping delicate vocals to amazing effect.
Time to roll out the guns. The Jet Project step jungle style, with their menagerie of drums. Overflowing with funk, their mix is gonna be a big BIG favourite with many.
Rounding off the package and riding high off the back of his current Darkroom Dubs release 'See My Eyes', alongside Virginia, is Marc Poppcke, one of the brightest talents coming out of Germany right now. His mix is a powerful, atmospheric delight, that proves equally strong in the darkest of basements to the biggest of mainrooms. Listen for the bell!!
A simply awesome package of mixes, and sign that the Silicone Soul boys have their fingers firmly on the pulse... Oh and by the way, i've seen what they have lined up too... watch this space!!
Enjoy!

To celebrate the pending release of “Heads In The Clouds”, the album of Belfast’s finest exports of quality underground music the Jet Project, the Dj &production duo that comprises of Timmy Stewart & John McIver, Xclusive bring you the hot off the press remix package....
 
This dirty dozen is a showcase of some of their finest moments for Silicone Soul's Darkroom Dubs label, neatly stitched together with brand new material that takes in all their influences as Dj’s from deep dubby house music to weird off kilter electronics and peak time dancefloor bombs. These two enthusiasts have been present and involved in Belfast's ever burgeoning club scene from its Acid House beginnings to its post-troubles renaissance.
 
This is the sound of the duo running at full tilt. Referencing their years of experience in control of the dance floor and losing control on it and pushing their studio work into effortlessly effective new shapes without ever losing site of the main objective. A collection of ready-to-play, immaculately constructed hedonistic hymns, that lives very much in the moment, but will undoubtedly endure much longer.
 
Each track on this collection is perfect for a club set but just as easily it rolls from start to finish as a complete body of work, in a similar fashion to one of their back-to-back Dj sets.
 
Today's promo package is a selection of those tracks remixed by yet more hot talent. Paul Woolford goes epic on this remix of 'Shudder', Fergie tears up 'Do It Like This' and Kirby & Aruba get deep on 'Barrio'.
