Upon You
UY128_4 | 2018-01-01  
Another busy year has passed. We're looking back on an incredible journey throughout the past 365 days, looking back on a bunch of new, exciting additions to the Upon.You Records roster, loads of thrilling releases and – maybe most importantly – to reaching the ten years mark of being in business in 2k17.

We've extensively celebrated this fact with quite a few events set up all over Europe within the past twelve months and now we're about to round this year off with our new compilation „10 Years Upon.You“, which – split in four parts – is about to feature exclusive tracks and brand new material provided by artists from the labels roster, both young guns and long time staples, to look back and set the course for the next year to come.

At first, label head Marco Resmann rounds things off with his „Space Craft“, an interplanetary vehicle propelled by a muscular, reverbarating drum foundation and growling synth bass with additives like busy percussion layers, beautiful piano melancholia and hefty, Motor City-reminiscing stab movements for added warp speed on the dancefloor. Who doesn't want to take a ride to the stars with a captain like this?

Being in „Chord Control“ is ONNO's mission here, getting down to a fusion of Minimal Techno grooves and stripped down TechHouse in which soft pads and strings are emerging slowly from a dry, rhythm focused foundation like a curtain moved by an airy breeze, revealing an overview of a beautiful rural, fully undisturbed scenery in the early morning sun. A track as beautiful and expressive like one of the great still life painting from ancient greats.

Next up are Kotelett & Zadak who are namewise referring to ancient Rome with their track title „Brutus“, sporting quite a bit of a groove for connaisseurs dancefloors, weighing a deep ass low end, tripping bleeps and completely warped vocal bits as a significant trademark sound. Call a tune sexy? Here it is!

Coming on fourth for Part 4 is Third Son's „Diode“ - a thrilling take on atmospheric, slightly damp and fever'ish TechHouse for the wee hours on the dancefloor, bringing a simplistic, yet highly effective and well seductive main motif alongside screeching swirls of sound, spine-tingling drones and panoramic, retrofuturist synth sounds for maximum pleasure.

With Marco Resmann's „Glide *Video Edit“ the labels creative head presents a pumping alternative take on his highly successful tune – a focused, dark'ish and spiralling Techno vision suitable for underground raves as well as banging main room sets in polished high end venues around the world.
