Happy New Year World!

Admin — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 13:28:44 +0000

Hello guys! I want to thank everyone who was on our board in 2011.

First of all, I want to thank our artists, you are always in my headphones guys! We had incredible releases this year, from Tony Palmer’s long awaited solo album to Jan Johnston’s return to the dance industry with the new talents Tartarus.. and many many more. And yes, it was a very difficult year, thanks to pirates for moving all these releases to torrents and forums, but maybe someone there found us interesting. Thanks to our fans and those few guys who are still looking for the music at Beatport, your support is helping us to look forward. And thanks to djs who not only commented, but also supported our music on radio and gigs.

May God Bless All Of You!

Yours Truly,
Laslo Barkasi (Soviet Recordings A&R / Executive Producer / Label Owner).

Our guys at the DJ Mag Top 100

Admin — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 07:39:28 +0000

Our guys Ben Hennessy a.k.a. Tartarus and Allex had a great time at DJ MAG’s Top 100 after party this year. Let’s ask them about their feelings!..

Q1: Do you like the results guys? David is the best or..?

Allex: It’s the worst result I ever saw! Armin van Buuren for the win, David Guetta is just a pop producer.

Q2: What about other Top 100 guys?

Ben Hennessy: Many of the people on that list surely deserve to be where they are, excepting Guetta with his pop music trying to be dance.

Allex: It’s very hard to choose one for the best, many artists did a great job, not just in trance or house genre, but in dubstep, d’n'b and techno too.. But anyway I miss some guys in this year’s top 100, such as Marcus Schossow for example.

Q3: Who’s your new favourite this year?

Ben Hennessy: Orjan Nilsen.

Allex: Arty.

Q4: Who will be the people’s champ next time?

Ben Hennessy: Tartarus! (joking)

Allex: Tartarus of course!

Electric V – Bucuresti

Admin — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 12:00:18 +0000

We are happy to present amazing single by Victor Rusin a.k.a. Electric V actually comes from Canada, dedicated to Romania’s glorious capital Bucharest. Original has the old school uplifting trance feel to it, while Tartarus and “Gone 2 Ibiza” remixes offer ample diversity to the package.

BEATSMEDIA REVIEW:

Electric V – Bucuresti (Original Mix)
Melodic elements are sprinkled in the very beginning of the track as it starts taking shape accordingly. A tubular synth lead gently envelops you while you start to lose your senses. Traditional Romanian violins introduced in the breakdown serves as a pleasant surprise…! It enhances the theme and brings out an emotional edge to the production. And finally the distorted tubular lead breaks loose with some epic pads, pure hands-in-the-air trance..!

Electric V – Bucuresti (Gone 2 Ibiza Mix)
Well, it’s Ibiza folks, so it has to be groovy! A bubbly, housy bassline doesn’t disappoint in making one sway to the rhythm. The piano-laden break is as lush as it could get and bursts out with huge lead bringing the house down..! A massively melodic progressive rework, which certainly shines through.

Electric V – Bucuresti (Tartarus Remix)
A chugging bassline with screeching fx makes up for a quite different start. After a short intro with lush pads, breakdown stirs things with an electric lead. Pretty techy in parts but a well executed remix.
