In the second staff picks of the year we have put in the background a small homage to the spring: a picture representing “Il ratto di Proserpina”, a sculture made by famous Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Proserpina is herself Persefone, the goddess who revives nature in Spring season. A small homage to the flowering season and this great artist, and of course the amazing releases opening this season.

Sciahri & CONCEPTUAL – Ritmo Oscuro [Non Series White]

Florence based artist Sciahri and Apulian native Conceptual based in Berlin joined forces for this massive, obscure yet highly recommended release on sub label Non Series White run by Psyk. This Ep is definitely one of the most liked by our staff. Intense and properly executed by the Italian duo in which we can feel the perfect fusion between the two styles. Well-executed the break beat remix by LDS, precisely made to push variety into dance floor and explore diverse atmospheres.
