Tartelet

Tartelet

Eclectic label based in Copenhagen, Denmark, and set up by Emil Margetli Nyholm and Frederik Bille Brahe in 2007. The label focuses generally on more downtempo/leftfield sounds, ranging from out-and-out ambience to Balearic, nu jazz, hip-hop, deep house, trip-hop and soul flavas. With an A&R ethos that favours unearthing new talent over signing tracks from sure-fire big hitters, arguably the best-known artists to have appeared on the label are German trio Brandt Brauer Frick, but other label regulars include Max Graef, Glenn Astro, Uffe, Jitwam and Space Ghost

Review: Nelson of the East is the work of an established artist working under a different name. The project's latest release on Tartelet is sure to keep fans guessing as to the producer's identity. The title track is a melange of styles - based on a swinging minimal groove and tough kicks, it also features a breezy synth melody and sun-dappled acid lines. "Aftersun" also deploys the sound of the 303, but on this occasion, the rhythm is more linear and dance floor focused. The release also features two fine remixes. The 'Aqua' take on "Sirena" is an evocative ambient piece, while the 'Poseidon' version of "Aftersun" inhabits a similar space, but midway through, hyper speed break beats drop into the arrangement.

Glenn Astro - "Taking Care Of Business" - (2:49) 80 BPM
Review: Three years ago Tartelet offered up a tasty compilation of previously unheard cuts, with all sales revenue going to charity. "The Second Best Time Is Now" follows the same formula, with sales income going to the Natural Resource Defence Council. Musically there's much to admire throughout, from the hazy reggae/blues/trip-hop fusion flex of Wayne Snow and Digitaluc's "Worrying State", to the deep intergalactic electronica of Glenn Astro's "Taking Care of Business", via the dreamy, synth-heavy jazz-funk of Space Ghost's "Groovin" and the Orb circa 1991 goodness of Dirk 81 and N.O.T.E's brilliant "Cosmic Plastic". Great music for a good cause: what more excuse do you need to stick it in your cart?

Review: Copenhagen-based Kenton Slash Demon return to local imprint Tartelet Records with a new terrific outing. It's been ten years since the duo landed on the label with their debut EP Khattabi, followed by the much-celebrated The Schwarzschild Trilogy singles - Sun, Matter and Daemon all released 2009-2011. The shimmering and emotive nu-disco bliss of "Zstring" is said to be a precursor for things to come within the next year. Featuring remixes by Californian in Berlin Urulu and fellow Dane Kasper Marott - whose dreamy rework in particular had us truly hypnotised. With talks of a full-length album, the KSD project is now being given the attention it deserves.

Minor Forms EP

Destino Tikal (Cuerpo Pulsante mix) - (5:48) 128 BPM
D.R.M - (6:16) 132 BPM
Quasimidi (Explored) - (6:54) 132 BPM
Review: An EP here from Germany's Tartelet that'll suit those who like their house finely crafted and unafraid of taking risks. 'Minor Forms' itself is an Afro-house cut that stands out from the pack via its use of some familiar James Brown-via-rave samples and a surprisingly meaty bassline, 'Destino Tikal (Cuerpo Pulsante Remix) blends African, Latin and jazz influences and would work a treat on summer terrraces, 'D.R.M' applies standard deep house production values but at a pacey 132bpm, while finally 'Quasimidi (Explored)' is another Afro/tribal affair with an intense, dark feel that's almost redolent of very early jungle/D&B.

NV Electro EP
NV Electro - (4:52) Hot
Projects - (7:48) 127 BPM
Rushing For Fools - (5:55) 126 BPM
Review: Taking its name from the grey, concrete-filled grimy Nordvest area of Copenhagen where they reside, and fitting with the current wave of 303 revivalists doing interesting things with the tried and tested template (Recondite, Tin Man) 2400 Operator have already impressed with some deeper leaning releases for Jus Ed's esteemed Underground Quality imprint. On this three track EP for Tartelet they experiment more explicitly with the sounds of electro. "NV Electro" makes it patently clear what vibe they're going for with its track title and does so with considerable success; it's lean 808 breakbeat combines with a brittle arpeggio and searching pad melodies that is part classic Hague sound and part classic New York deepness. "Projects" is a more 4/4 affair but still uses a more cosmic sci-fi palette, complete with glittering synth arp and chunky low slung bassline to keep things grounded, while "Rushing For Fools" is like classic 80s house accented with 303 bass stabs that nevertheless has a clear and modern sensibility, delivering clever rhythms underneath its acid crescendo.

Symphonia (Tomas Barfod remix) - (5:56) 124 BPM
Review: James Braun is the latest in a string of impressive Danish producers of late. "Symphonia" merges house music with the Dane's experimental tendencies to great effect. Claude Von Stroke delivers a highly danceable remix whereas label boss Tomas Barford digs much deeper with dirty drums, deep bass and spacey synths.
