I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Here’s some brand new techno from Canada. Maxime Miville makes his debut on Wide Angle Recordings with two sublime tracks that capture the essence of melodic techno. Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell which is currently on #1 and #2 in the releasepromo.com charts might be something to look forward too. Especially if you know they asked Max Cooper to add his own touch and make this release even more worthy with his brilliant remix of Don’t Ask. Preview these tracks on soundcloud. Maxime’s debut will be released by Wide Angle recordings November the 17th. Note that down. Now enjoy these previews.

Monsieur Musique is proud to announce the most recent EP by Maxime Miville, titled “Inner Ear & Outer Walls”.

Like a whirlpool of sounds and melodies, Vertigo gives us the impression of falling into a void without losing your footing, while Balance brings us a feeling of weightlessness with its light and festive sentiment pulled from a circus act. Aloft on a southern breeze, Motion, thanks to its captivating guitar and its reassuring brass movements, form the protective envelope much like outer walls which protect us.

Couldn’t describe it better! The release date is on the 24th of November. In the meantime enjoy “Balance”.

4. Dopamine (Rico Puestel Remix)

I wasn’t entirely impressed with the remixes because I feel like they didn’t capture the ‘essence’ if you will. You might agree that both treatments loose the melancholy vibe in favor of focusing on developing more complex rhythmic layers. I would have liked to see what Cassaza would have done with Endorphin. Speaking of which, Rico Casaaza is starting up a new label himself and looking for demos.
Runners High is out on Archipel records as a digital release and is available on Beatport.
