Cadenza Records Cadenza Records
According to musicology, a cadenza is: generically, an improvised or written-out ornamental passage played or sung by a soloist or soloists, usually in a 'free' rhythmic style, and often allowing for virtuosic display. To me and you of course, Cadenza is a house label run by Luciano and Serafin, operating in the more minimal areas of house, and its harder older brother techno. With releases form the likes of Andomat 3000, Luciano and Ricardo Villalobos Cadenza recordings provides a platform for their artists to release music with a more improvised, organic feel.

1990s Chicago house clearly serves as an inspiration for Cadenza's new kid Davide Benedetti, who structures 'You Can't Do This' and 'Moody Elise' around one bar samples and pumping beats akin to Paul Johnson and DJ Sneak. The slightly oddball 'My Mother's Eyes' rounds off an otherwise rock-solid debut.

Switzerland's Mirko Loko meets Detroit's Stacey Pullen with Pullen appearing for the first time on Cadenza. A fusion of these two distinct styles takes the form of 'Formulaic Mode', a drifting, thickly textured and bass-heavy mover and 'Tronic Illusion' an alluring, spacious shuffler. Ace stylish and intriguing tracks.

Berlin-based Alex Picone turns up the heat with his second EP on Cadenza. Opener 'Inside Out' lulls with warm chord stabs and gentle jacking beat, before the bass-driven 'Lost In Burning Man', elastic energy of 'Mandarin' and muted piano in 'Berlin-Tokyo' all working a treat. Tight productions for the dancefloor.

Two prominent remixes for Ernesto Ferreyra's recent 'El Paraiso de las Tortugas' album by Luciano and Guillaume & the Coutu Dumonts, the former spicing up his mix with processed vocals and 80s claps, while the latter complements 'Letting Go's jazz vibes with a subtle house groove. Nice one.

Long awaited début album by Reboot, who has become one of the most talked about figures in the house scene since making his first appearance only three years ago. 'Shunyata' convinces with long, undulating lines and morphological structures that reward deep, repeated listening. Great!

Gavin Herlihy drops his second release, 'Back Burner', for Cadenza. Three solid solid house work that pull all the right strings for prime-time club play, from the title track's percussive wild pitch grooves to 'Think's bouncy Chicago rhythms.

Before Reboot drops his long awaited debut album on Cadenza this summer, he sends a little forerunner in the form of 'Rambon' and 'Urana' which comes with a remix by label boss Luciano. Good stuff, raising the bar of expectations for his new album.
