"As The Rush Comes"

David Mimram aka Ultimate D and Yossi Amos aka Yamos has taken a trance classic and given it new life.

"As The Rush Comes" originally released in 2003 on Armin Van Buuren's Armind imprint by Motorcycle is now a percolating house music jam with tremendous energy.

Jes Brieden's delicate and enticing vocals remain intact.

The track is uplifting and quite useful in a progressive house or trance set.

I believe Gabriel and Dresden would applaud the effort on this project; it should be a winter time smash all over again.

Again our congratulations to Armin !!!!!!

Armada & Team

YOU ROCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

........... + Eller ;-)


 
 
 
 





A special 2007 live version of two massive Armin Van Buuren hits that showcase how beautiful trance can be when fused with guitar. The stirring guitar play of Eller, Armin's brother, is most evident on Sunlounger as a fitting compliment to the sexy synths and relaxed vibe that suggests early morning Ibiza. Armin's tribal soundtrack completes the picture. The segueway into a dreamy version of Zocalo is sublime with it's western frontier attitude and epic synth work. Eller's live guitar work is a credit to these live versions that are a favorite of thousands of seasoned partiers. A special version for a special night Live at Armin Only!!!


Markie Gee & Nicky and all friends + artists

Alan Prosser feat. Monsif - Touche Ana -
ODA Digital Records
Cat-No.: ODA012

Original + David Santana Big Room Club-Mix + Radio Edit








https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/198646/Touche%20Ana


Dear partners, DJ's and business associates,

driven by her instinct and affinity to this type of music, Nicky Zimmer (ODA Digital Records) discovers Monsif in summer 2009.

It is her heart’s desire to release a combination of electronic music and Reggae/Tribal to connect the two worlds in this way.

This production creates a unique friction between the different musical influences from the UK, Germany and France-Afrique.

Something special. Something new.

Alan’s sound is a tech/progressive house fusion between uplifting percussion & deep dark bass line grooves. Watch out for some new releases coming out soon on ODA.


Best regards from Frankfurt,

Nicky aka ODA

https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/track/catalog/?labelId=12659&contextType=labels&contextEntityId=12659

Dear friends,

on ODA - we have a lot of friends - working - on air (radio incl. radioplaylists/ support etc.) now & next weeks worldwide - from Europe -to Russia / USA /Canada and we're played in clubs worldwide already..

Thank you very much for your support friends!!!

Today - after release we was special featured on Betaport as Number 1 "Overview" / out of more then 28.400 releases with Alan Prosser's Tech House Remix "Stupid Little Things", a big thanks to my partner!!

Big fun and thanks for our first "Number One " ;-)


The "First" Feedback:

...........This is a very exciting collection of dancefloor-ready tracks that are hard to pigeon hole.

I'd say each track is a variation on the the tech-house/minimal theme.

The standout remix is Kazakhstan's Miyake Noro's thumping, quirky electro-tech workout that will jack your body.

Platform B standout Joseph Disco uses an insistent beat and spooky vocal stabs to great effect and the Electric OM remix utilizes a serious techno riff with arresting vocals.

The original mix profits from a tribal orientation with perky, ass-shaking syncopation in a familiar minimal package. Overall full on support for this versatile set of clubland delights!!! It's already been in my mixshow!!!


DJ Markie Gee
www.wtchouseradio.com
...These were not all full mixes and I don't have the Alan Prosser RMX...


Favourite Track: Stupid Little Things (Miyake Noro Remix)

Comments: This is a smart release with 4 very useful takes on a theme that are all floor friendly. Exploring the varying shade sof tech-house and minimalism, "Stupid Little Things" can be a hidden gem. Special love to Miyake Noro's remix which is chunky, thumping and adventurous musically. Can't wait to play this soaring number in a big room!!!

Dear friends and business partners,

I’d like to inform you about some changes:

After establishing my booking agency and my 3 labels, there will be some additional company expansions in the near future.

We have been taking on project-based work in the Web-Management / Online-Communication area. Since it has been going very well, we have decided to further expand this growth-oriented area.
 
Being a small agency with a well-established network, we are able to react to market requirements flexibly and to embark on a new path. We are offering a complete package for your „one-stop service“. Besides our core areas Artist Management, Booking, Radio-, TV-, and Print Promotion, Music and Remix Placement, Copywriting, Text Optimisation and Translation, we are now presenting a number of very useful services for your online-communication. Details will be published on my website within the next few days.

I also wanted to let you know that I will add a music publishing company and a new label catering to Rock music in 2009/2010. I will team up with my current label manager Cordula Abston for this.

I will keep the booking agency of course.

I have managed to find a new and young booking partner – Vladislav from London – who is representing our interests. I will continue to work as booker and act as a point of contact.

However, due to my company’s expansion, I will have to concentrate on other areas for now.

In the course of this, I would also like to expand the „event area“ as we are going to attract new customers and partners from other sectors. And the clubs worldwide of course…
 
We are very excited to see how this is going to evolve.


Kind regards,
Nicky

Artikel in der Raveline / September 09


Booking agencies don’t have it easy: taken in by a conwoman

Alleged bookings, made-up flights and a total loss of €18,000. A professed host named Angelique caused a lot of trouble for a booking agency and DJ’s such as Markie Gee and Roland Clark. The latter even found himself at the airport without flight as his ticket turned out to be nothing more than a travel route. A number of other flights for bookings in Ibiza, Spain and Croatia hadn’t been confirmed and downpayments hadn’t been made either. Aforementioned Angelique always justified her non-availability stating that she was hospitalized. She has meanwhile disappeared completely and the loss that had previously only affected the booking agency and some lawyers meanwhile turned out to be even more serious. It appears that Anqelique also fleeced other renowned artists, agencies and clubs worldwide. There was a stir on Facebook after more and more DJ’s and agencies reported similar incidents. Please take this article as a warning: remember to thoroughly check your prospective business partners and make sure they operate properly – event if that process may take a few days. In this case, not even a website was in place. Everybody should have been taken aback by this but even “old stagers” were too trustful in this case. Let’s hope that this won’t cause a wave of imitations.


Booking-Agenturen haben es auch nicht leicht: Einer Betrügerin aufgesessen

Vorgebliche Bookings,  erlogene Flugbuchungen und ein Gesamtschaden von 18.000 Euro. Eine angebliche Veranstalterin namens Angelique sorgte mit falschen Versprechungen für jede Menge Ärger bei einer Booking Agentur und DJs wie Markie Gee und Roland Clark. Letzterer stand sogar ohne bestätigten Flug am Flughafen, da sich das angebliche Flugticket als Routenplan herausstellte. Für eine Reihe von weiteren Bookings auf Ibiza, in Spanien und Kroatien wurden ebenfalls keine Flüge bestätigt, auch Anzahlungen blieben aus. Besagte Angelique begründete ihre Nicht-Erreichbarkeit stets damit, im Krankenhaus gewesen zu sein. Mittlerweile ist sie gänzlich abgetaucht und der Schaden, der zuerst nur eine Booking-Agentur betraf, und mittlerweile einige Anwälte beschäftigt, ist anscheinend noch um einiges gravierender, da Angelique weitere namhafte Künstler, Agenturen & Clubs weltweit auf die gleiche betrügerische Weise um Bookings geprellt haben soll. Bei Facebook schlugen die Wogen hoch, nachdem sich nach und nach weitere DJs und Agenturen gemeldet haben. Dieser Artikel ist als Warnung zu verstehen - unser nochmaliger Hinweis: Bitte prüft wenn es sein muss, mehrere Tage, ob Euer eventueller zukünftiger Geschäftspartner korrekt arbeitet. In diesem Fall gab es noch nicht mal eine funktionierende Homepage. Eigentlich hätten alle stutzig werden müssen, aber selbst ‚alte Hasen‘ waren bei dieser Geschichte zu "gutgläubig“. Hoffen wir, dass nicht wieder die typische Nachahmer-Welle über uns hinweg schwappt.

LeRon & Yves Eaux



Dear partner & friends,

dutch star DJ/producer duo LeRon & Yves Eaux are on fire!

Their brand new track Rakatak (GF Tekk Records) is causing serious mayhem on the global dance floors and is hammered by EVERY topdeejay in the spectrum of house music. From Roger Sanchez to Carl Cox and from Fedde le Grand to Mark Knight. Radioshows such as Pete Tong’s at BBC, Toolroom Show and Ministry Of Sound are supporting it.

This proofs that these guys know exactly what works to get a crowd going.

Amsterdam based Yves Eaux has just returned from headlining parties in Russia and Greece and played a 3 hour set in Cyprus before Infected Mushroom took over.

Their international sound, a blend of house, techhouse and funky techno attracts a stylish crowd. It’s all about the girls who go totally crazy when the charismatic Yves Eaux starts teasing them.

And there is more!

Sander Kleinenberg asked them to remix his classic Work To Do for release on his label Little Mountain Recordings. This production is circulating among only a few A-List deejays to create an even bigger hype.

With massive support from all the industry’s topdogs and a sound that is HOT.

It’s time to bring Yves Eaux or LeRon & Yves Eaux to set your party on fire!

For bookings feel free to contact me.

Best regards from Frankfurt,

Nicky Zimmer

RELEASE INFO PINK FLUFFY RECORDS: STUART EPPS – “TRIBAL MUSIC”

ARTIST: Stuart Epps   
TITEL: Tribal Music   
LABEL: Pink Fluffy Records   
KATALOGNUMMER: PFR001   
FORMAT: MP3 (320 Bit) / WAV   
TRACKS: 16   
DATUM VÖ: 09.09.2009   
VERTRIEB: Believe Digital    

Pink Fluffy Records präsentiert das Album “Tribal Music” von Stuart Epps –

Veröffentlichungstermin ist der  9. Semptember 2009.

Die Songs auf „Tribal Music“ sind Teil eines Projekts, das Stuart Epps für den auf Dokumentationen spezialisierten TV-Sender Discovery Channel aufgenommen hat.

Die Idee bestand darin, die traditionellen Gesänge, Fingerklavier und Flöte der Surma (Volk im Südwesten Äthiopiens; Anmerk. d. Verf.) mit Instrumenten der westlichen Welt zu verknüpfen. Stuart Epps mit eigenen Worten: “Ich liebte dieses Projekt, mit diesem großartigen Kriegervolk spielen zu dürfen war eine absolut einzigartige Erfahrung.“

Die 16 Songs auf dem Album spiegeln Stuart Epps’ Passion für dieses musikalische Kunstwerk wieder. Die Musik kann als mächtig mit vielen spielerischen Elementen beschrieben werden – einfach und doch vielschichtig. Traditionelle Klänge wechseln sich mit rockigen Elementen ab und sorgen für einen sofortigen "wow"-Effekt. Das Album erzählt eine Geschichte und nimmt den Zuhörer mit auf eine Reise: Spannung wird aufgebaut und zum Höhepunkt gebracht, um sich dann später an einem wunderschönen und ruhigen Ort komplett aufzulösen.

Manchmal ist die Musik tief emotional und ernst – an  anderer Stelle plätschert sie dahin wie Regentropfen inmitten eines warmen, exotischen Regenschauers.


Stuart Epps ist ein bekanntes Gesicht in der Musikbranche: Er ebnete sich den Weg, indem er im Jahr 1967 für den Verleger der Beatles Dick James tätig wurde. In den 1970er Jahren arbeitete er als A&R und Produzent für Elton Johns Plattenfirma Rocket Records. Danach wurde er auch zum Studio Manager für Gud Dugeons – den Produzenten von Elton John. Mit ihm zusammen holten sie Künstler wie Chris Rea, Lindisfarne, Elton John und weitere große Namen ins Studio.

Stuart Epps hat namhafte Größen wie Twisted Sister, Vandenberg, Bad Company, George Harrison, Bryan Adams, Robbie Williams, Oasis und viele andere produziert. „Tribal Music“ ist sein Debut-Album als Künstler – und in Anbetracht seiner beeindruckenden Vita haben wir nicht den geringsten Zweifel, dass sein Werk von Erfolg gekrönt wird.
