Souvenir records proudly presents the return of our brother captains, Tiefschwarz, with a murky new single featuring the vocal athletics of the inimitable Argenis Brito.

Argenis Brito, a native Venezuelan, is best known for his long time association with Chilean artists like Dandy Jack, Pier Bucci and Atom TM's saucy Senor Coconut project. His studio trickery and multi-instrumentalism served him extremely well as a key player in delivering to the house music world a splash of Latin colour in the early noughties, labels like Cadenza rising to dominance on dancefloors around the floor. He's traveled the world too with his inventive live set, tailoring each specific show with the myriad rhythms and patterns presented by different South American sounds.

On 'No Message' Argenis heralds in a chunky undulating bassline with a panoply of echoing grunts, vocal snippets warping in and out of earshot. Balance swerving, it sounds like a crowd of people murmuring around you, with the tracks refrain of 'bringing a message' and 'only you know what is real' doing very little to reassure. A skittering drum pattern propels the track forward as shimmering keys fly in and out at surprising off-beats. A sawtooth synth improvisational moment provides an irreverent break before plunging headfirst back into the tense beat. As per usual, Tiefschwarz provide one of their trademark dub mixes, bulking out the low end with lead anvils, the chords themselves shaped into doughy pillows of sound. Argenis' vocals are chopped down, and more heavily treated so as to become more of a repeating sound than intelligible words.

About Souvenir

So much more important than any of the parties, the interminable travel, magazine covers or cash, every great DJ should begin first and foremost, with one goal: to be the most avid collector. Honing down the multitude of records is his task, through unearthing and treasuring music, new and old; almost as a traveler navigating his way through the ocean of new sounds. It's this constant drive for sonic exploration that's responsible for Souvenir, the Berlin label spearheaded by the brothers Ali and Basti Schwarz, better known to the world simply as Tiefschwarz.

With over five years in existence, the label has steadily amassed an impressive roster of artists, forming a closely-knit family of upcoming producers around them, as well as working alongside some of the leading figures in contemporary electronic music. It's also been a home for most of Tiefschwarz's own output with the young label's very first release being the single 'Hey' back in 2006, recorded under the brother's Ichundu alias. Since then they've had a ten-year celebratory 'Best Of' compilation, an album 'Chocolate' and their 'In The City' label sampler. With a whole host of artists having released singles along the way, including names like Riton, Phonique and Ziggy Kinder, the label has now become home to a steady group of talented young producers, Re.You, Sante, Chris Wood & Meat and Ruede Hagelstein. Ruede himself recently released his debut album, 'Soft Pack' alongside his band The Noblettes, an electro-indie sound with an ethereal, downbeat version of his dancefloor anthem 'Emergency'. In order to foster up and coming talent, Souvenir launched a digital-only label called Souvenirplus, and with plenty already on the cards for 2012 (including perhaps a much anticipated, new Tiefschwarz album), this small label proves exactly why Berlin really is the world capital for contemporary electronic music.
