Digging Deeper with POPOF

/in , /by

Deeperfect’s Synaptic EP is a collaboration effort from two heavy hitting producers. Form label boss, POPOF, is a bonafide legend in the underground house and techno scene. He has been pumping out hits for more than ten years on the most important and genre defining labels, such as Cocoon, Truesoul, Bedrock and Hot Creations. On the other side of this meeting of creative minds is Stefano Kosa, an up-and-coming talent from Milan who has made a big name for himself with his music on important labels like Stereo Productions, Elrow and of course POPOF’s label Form.

One of the most downloaded artists in his category, POPOF is in very high demand for his remixes and has worked for famous artists such as Depeche Mode, Chemical Brothers, Moby, Booka Shade, Vitalic, Tiga, Maetrik, Martin Solveig and many more.

We took the occasion to sit down with the Parisian to talk about the EP and the whirlwind summer he is having.

Umberto Pagliaroli – Parallel EP

/in /by

umberto yep

For almost 15 years, Italian native Umberto Pagliaroli has been smashing it up, making his mark on dance floors all over the world.  Equally impressive (if not more) is his studio output, with over 15 releases on Beatport releases in the past couple years. Pagliaroli has established a unique sound that has stood the test of time, solidified and reinforced by his Parallel EP.  He is finally starting to get the credit he deserves, as the parallel has been on Beatport’s top 100 releases chart, slowly rising since its release in early october. Parallel EP starts with the title track, featuring dark chord stabs and a rolling with some dope hats and shakers. Next up is Beat Me, a slightly more uptempo track with a tenaciously driving rhythm, psychedelic renegade snares and the occasional splash of noise. The record ends with Act, a dubby techno track with a groovy rolling bassline and some synth plucks. Preview the EP below, and if you like it, then click here to buy on Beatport.
