Clip releases his debut album Magnetic Reconnection on Seeking The Velvet in collaboration Red Bull Music Academy Spain. This arduous and mature production consists of eight tracks that plunge its listeners into a journey full of analog sounds, dark textures, drones, and a futuristic techno. These ingredients are a faithful reflection of the two cities in which the album has been recorded: Berlin and Barcelona. During its 38 minutes, Clip delivers a complete journey in which he consolidates a unique sound and way of composing. Cover art commissioned to the designer and visual artist Viktor Autofocus, one half of the duo Realmente Bravo. This creative project has recently worked alongside Agorazein (led by rapper C.Tangana). This album released under Cora Novoa's project Seeking The Velvet showcases Clip's new haunting sound landscapes, as the RBMA ex-alumni class 2011 (and the second Spanish artist chosen to participate in its international edition) moves forward from the influence of UK house that underlid his previous releases while adding a superbly distant, darker tone that evokes an analog techno futurism. "Gravity Darkening" features XXX.

The charismatic, restless Cora Novoa presents Fight Love Faith, an album that swings between electronic, indie, and experimental pop, and diverges from her past work -- an emphatic turning point sure to surprise both her followers and the industry at large. In the five years since her 2010 first album, The Secret Garden, the Galician artist has dived deeply into the complexity of mythology and occult sciences, disciplines that have directly influenced the narrative, composition, and creation of Fight Love Faith. Cora Novoa has been experimenting, locked up in her studio, with unexpected sounds in order to shape and create this album, blending broken beat rhythms, detailed melodies, and far from mainstream vocals into soulful music with a techno heart. With tracks shaped using Roland machines and synthesizer sequences that take the listener directly back to the early '80s, Fight Love Faith delivers Novoa's new age-influenced synthpop like never before. Its melodies, splashed with psychedelia, are deeply influenced by the most underground electronic sound. It's loaded with symbolism and references to the occult, all of which have been precisely stitched through the whole narrative, with no loose ends, in a sincere declaration of intent that invites the listener to unravel the true meaning of Fight Love Faith. Features contributions from Tom Havelock and Sam Tucker. Clear vinyl. Includes download code.
