Sales Information:

After a short timeout the young Berlin producer presents his new work on this four-tracker in collaboration with Chicago House Music icon and pioneer Paris Brightledge, accountably for releases since 1987 on substantial labels such as DJ International Records. He recently delivered the vocals on Paranoid London’s killers ‘Paris Dub 1 & 2′. ‘Smile’ the title track of the EP, highlights Paris’ ability to hypnotize the dance floor with his unique voice combined with Marlon’s production smoothness. With ‘Smile’ Paris displays: ‘torn from the angst of my soul concerning the tragedy of love and life lost’. ‘Smile’ got a special treatment by Detroit’s very own Kris Wadsworth. His Venus Rx Remix lived up to its name and has some ‘pretty nasty analog stuff going on’ to catapult yourself right into the atmosphere. The B-side ‘Lies’ discusses how coming from the streets doesn’t always allow feelings to be displayed in life or in love. It’s a percussion driven, 303 based club workout. No rest for dancers on this one. Remix comes from label artist Matteo Luis, providing a more synth accented version, introducing an engrossing sound that will be continued on his upcoming RTGD 003. The EP is Paris’ and Marlon’s first collaboration and we can already promise it won’t be the last one on Retrograde. Every copy comes with a full cover artwork by Hermann Reimer.
