Joule Imprint France Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Get ready for the next exciting release from Joule, the renowned label helmed by Janeret. This time, he invites Kicks, the french producer behind the Space Opera EP on Rutilance and some tracks on Ordinaire records supported by Chris Stussy, Cinthie, Brawther and Djoko...

Active on the french underground House scene since the begining of the 90s come back, Kicks is a real connoisseur of sound synthesis and record sampling allowing him to deliver quality on every release. Delve into four atmospheric tracks that you will struggle to date between 1999 and 2023, including a remix from the label boss himself.

Review: Fresh from collaborating with Dubfluss on the Rowle-released Intergalactic EP, tech-house scene stalwart Rowlanz pops up on Joule. There's much to admire throughout, not least title track "Jogger". It sees the long-serving London producer add wonderfully spacey chords and supernova electronics to rolling tech-house beats and a suitably heavy synth bassline. Elsewhere, "LH9" is an ultra deep and hypnotic affair rich in dubby bass and dreamy electronics, while Zendid's fine flipside revision of "Jogger" strikes a perfect balance between flotation tank dreaminess and minimalist dancefloor haziness.
