Bristol-based producer Remotif has lovingly curated a selection of tunes from some of his favourite producers for Stranger Together, a VA compilation aimed at raising funds for the International Rescue Committee (IRC).

IRC is currently assisting with emergency resettlement for Afghan refugees. Afghanistan is the single country most at risk of deteriorating humanitarian crises in 2022, and 100% of the profits from this release will provide uprooted families with tents, clean water, sanitation and other basic necessities.

This 11 track release taps into a diverse selection of dancefloor tracks from producers across the world, offering everything from uplifting melodic house to dark, psychedelic techno – and everything in between.

VÉRE leads the charge, easing the listener in with a salvo of ethereal pads and breakbeats on Only Just, before passing the baton on to Maara for her dark and trippy roller Going All The Way Up. Dylan Forbes drops shimmering house number Feels Like, which segues nicely into the effervescent uptempo sparkle of Manami’s Sunbeams.

Remotif’s emotive, Final Fantasy-inspired The Golden Shiny Wire of Hope continues this uplifting energy before giving way to DJ Life’s trademark Aussie tech-prog funk with The Barrens. Alphonse’s Still Eye offers a propulsive, skitterish breakbeat workout and Ciel & Roberto switch things up with the bass-heavy machine groove of Deep FM.

Ramu’s Nothing Else To Do adds a dash of hyperkinetic acid and LUXE’s Level Up hits hard with some truly stomach-churning basslines. To round off the compilation, Boulderhead deploys his trademark flavor of lean, wiggy trance-not-trance with Leaf Power Up.

“Coymix Ltd, the label run by friends Steffan Todorovic and Timo Rotonen, releases impeccable projects like the world’s best vineyards release the finest fuckin’ wine you’ve never tasted. I’m lucky enough to be on their promo list (thanks bois it’s a goddamn honor), and everytime I get something new, my animal instincts tell me to throw ‘em on a USB and bury them in the park close to my apartment. In my head, this is a preservation technique, one for which I’d draw myself a decent pirate map to remember where it was buried. You might think this qualifies as “taking it too far,” but they said the same thing about Avalon Emerson’s “Art of DJing” and look at her shinin’ like the hottest star. Point is, like her, I’ll do what I want with my fuckin’ bangers, OK!? When the zombie apocalypse sends YOUR loved ones into hiding, I’ll be in the park with all of MY dj and audio gear soundtracking the shredding of my entrails with a Coymix project.

I DIGRESS.

Joe Reddick aka Remotif is the London based producer responsible for COY004. Prior to this outing he’s released notable projects on air miles, Pleasant Life, Familiar Strangers, and Alfresco Disco. He most often excels at creating lush dreamlike “breakscapes,” but here we find him swapping tempos for four straight emotional club bangers that extend from techy house to trance and to psychedelic breaks. He’s ditched the butt chug for a butt plug, and lemme be the first to tell you, these tunes shake the anal cavity. Quick aside, if you don’t feel a tune in your asshole are you even listening properly? As a label head myself, I must feel my butt quake before I even consider signing a tune. So yeah, big up Joe, I’m gonna need restorative surgery on my sphincter after these repeat listens.

Shall we get to the music? It’s my pleaasssureee to premiere today the B1 from COY004, or what Remotif has dubbed the “Goodbye Sunshine EP.” “Telepathic Heights” is the project’s most melancholy tune, and another beautiful take on deep Detroit and Italo house, lush with wiggly synth lines, fever dream atmospheres, and a new-age vocal sample that repeats “enter, the unexpected door.” It’s a fitting whisper for a tune that makes me feel like I’m floating through the astral plane. If I was going to walk through a random glowing door, this is the tune that’d play after crossing the threshold. But hear me out, just because this tune sounds chill, doesn’t mean that it would tear up a dance floor. This is weaponry for transitional those moments when you’re moving a crowd from a to b to c to d. Or maybe, you’re just moving yourself, in which case this tune is equal amounts of gold for your headphones.

“Telepathic Heights” and the rest of COY004 releases on August 27th via the Coymix Ltd. Bandcamp and other major retailers of vinyl and digital rekkies. Do yourself a favor and cop a piece of electronic history. I don’t write often, but when I do, it’s for something worthy. This, and everything else from the Estonian/Finnish A&R masterminds is NOT TO BE MISSED.”

Pre-order.
