We’re pleased to be bringing you the production talents of Jonatan Backelie for our next Y.O.T.A release. The multi talented instrumentalist, singer and beat-smith takes a healthy side step from the centre in his latest offering ‘To The Bottom’.
Opening with a glitched out sub heavy rhythm ‘Rave to the bottom’ immediately sets out its intentions of lighting up any well-seasoned dancefloor. This one is not for the faint hearted as Jonatan peppers the production with 8 bit synth swatches that are not scared to sit right out front. The intense work put in is obvious, as the organic piano that appears late in the day sits effortlessly with the lab crafted sonic science that opens the release.
Step to the bottom offers a slightly different take on the same sound, with a stripped down edit that forms the backing for a well crafted bell tone to shine through. Whether you rave there or step there, Jonatan Backelie is taking you ‘To The Bottom’.

Thankyou!!” Andreas Saag – “Deep house at it’s finest!” Catz n Dogz – “Dream Deep is beautifull will play tonight” Jimpster – “All tracks are super strong and loaded with soul and warmth.”
DeejayKul’s ‘Dream Deep’ echoes the original sound of ‘Deep House’ from back in the day, and is accompanied on this release with a soul warming edit, switched up from non other than ARCo’s head honcho ‘Atjazz’.
Dedicated to house music to the bitter end, DeejayKul’s true commitment to his craft has resulted in a very unique yet straight up sound, capable of warming up the coldest of club nights. Dream Deep is here to help us loose grip of our daily stresses, to let go to get loose.
Honest music from a committed producer.

Introducing the brand new series of releases from Atjazz Record Company “Years Of The Abstract” boasts some of the worlds most technically abled electronic producers showcasing their sound across this very exciting release outlet.
First of which is the amazing sound of Mizgir hailing from Ukraine.
Sounding like his music has been beamed to us from another plant, Mizgir’s sound is more than a galactic space journey, as it is also very organic to the ear, what a pot of electronic gumbo this is!
With a nod to traditional Indian instruments seamlessly melding with amazing technical production accuracy, and layers of distant haunting vocal bites, this new sound is a long overdue breath of fresh air in this claustrophobic musical world. Surya being the leading song runs through at pace with delicate sub tones and impeccable sonic production, flowing like an unstoppable river it quickly becomes a real ear feast, with a perfect balance of sharp and smooth sound. Yu-Ras follows up with a more serious note, playing out its bumpy rhythms over a well-designed electronic field. Layered with lush organic instrumentation both songs tell a wonderful story, close your eyes and zone in, you will not be disappointed.
“Mizgir is one of the few new producers turning the right corners, flipping modern music on its head, while keeping his music totally playable – Amazing! – Atjazz
• “Interesting, off-kilter science but with a lot of musicality” Jimpster (Freerange)
• “Great Abstract EP well produced” Rocco (Realtone)
