BERLIN & MOSCOW-BASED DUO JACKARTA MAKES PURIFIED DEBUT WITH 'INTO THE WILD' FT. DIANA MIRO OFFICIAL REMIX BY PURIFIED RECORDS REGULAR DEVIU

Making a compelling label debut, Berlin & Moscow-based production duo Jackarta showcases their musical finesse with their latest offering ‘Into The Wild’ Ft. Diana Miro. Receiving an official remix by Purified Records regular, Colombian producer Deviu, the two-track compilation is out now.

Opening with Diana’s alluring vocals and a deep rolling bassline, ‘Into The Wild’ is captivating from the very first beat. Fusing raw synth stabs and undulating pads with expert precision, Jackarta builds a hypnotic soundscape, which alongside Diana’s hauntingly beautiful vocals, will leave a lasting impression on the listener. Moving the original into a lofty dimension, Deviu infuses progressive and melodic sensibilities in his atmospheric remix. Leaving the vocal firmly intact, he travels across a fluctuating sonic environment, complete with dramatic synths and impactful breaks.

Located in Berlin and Moscow, Jackarta consists of two long-time friends, Evgeny (Jack) and Artyom (Art). Their passion for electronic music was ignited by previous melodic electronic acts, which inspired them to begin experimenting across deep and progressive styles. With a passion for travel, life moments and emotions we all face in our lives, the duo encapsulate these elements into the core of their productions, creating timeless compositions, which will stand the test of time. With releases on revered labels such as Songspire, Colorize and now Purified Records, this dynamic duo has positioned themselves as ones to watch.

Hailing from Colombia, classically trained musician Deviu began producing electronic music in 2014. After studying audio and sound production in Medellin, Colombia, he began to compose chill out and ambient music. Through further exploration of his passion, he began experimenting with melodic house & techno and progressive house. Honing his craft and dedicating endless hours in the studio, this transition led him to release on an array of imprints, including Purified Records, Dieses Records, Ear Porn Music, The Soundgarden and Trip and Dream Records. Receiving support from some of dance music’s most in-demand acts, his records have been played by Nora En Pure, Gioli & Assia, Nick Warren, Sultan & Shepard, Dosem and many more.

Smooth around the edges and ablaze on the inside, Diana Miro’s intimate, rich, soul-dipped vocals confidently complement melodic techno and the lush, emotional harmonies of progressive house. Based in Amsterdam, she has spent the last several years focusing on these genres and collaborating with the likes of Cosmic Gate, Eelke Kleijn, Avira, Estiva and many more. Performing with Eelke Klein during his Cercle performance in March 2021, they performed their collaboration ‘You’ at the breathtaking top floor of the ancient Le Mont Saint Michele Castle in France. With upcoming releases on Armada, Atlant and Purified Records, Diano Miro continues to take the dance music world by storm.

KASZTAN SERVES RAPTURE ON NEW SINGLE "I CAN'T"

French composer Pierre-Marie made an emphatic debut under his newly-launched Kasztan moniker earlier this year with the highly anticipated “Rare Earth Elements” EP. Beginning the rollout of his second extended-player contribution to the circuit, which is set for release in January 2022, the M83 alum shares the first opus “I Can’t” from his forthcoming body of work. “I Can’t” is available now across all streaming platforms.

“I Can’t” is another authentic masterpiece from the esteemed producer, who enjoyed many years conquering the pop, rock and cinematic spaces before fulfilling his underground cravings. The hypnotic cut flaunts anthemic synth-work, subtle rhythmic experimentation and a softly enticing vocal chop that injects itself throughout the almost four-and-a-half-minute run-time. Building with a transmissible fire, Kasztan deftly balances post-rock sensibilities with the emotive grandeur of ambient techno, tailoring the two seemingly disparate genres to create an entirely new voice. Its effect is fluid and immersive, serving as a breeding ground for an array of intricate sound design elements. Bolstered by ethereal soundscaping, Kasztan’s intelligent layering builds in intensity to a rapturous apex moment during its final quarter. Unifying sounds to these epic proportions has become somewhat of a trademark production tool within his discography, representing the best of the post-rock/techno realm.

ABOUT KASZTAN -- Born and raised in the city of Nice, Pierre-Marie Maulini launched his first post-rock band 'A Red Season Shade' with his brother in his early teens. Releasing two successful albums, the pair caught the attention of fellow French musician Anthony Gonzalez (M83), and subsequently, Pierre spent the next two years travelling the world for the "Saturdays = Youth" tour.

In 2012, he signed his debut album under his STAL moniker with Arista/Sony Music. In parallel with his production output on the project, Pierre-Marie started writing bespoke music for commercials, signing the soundtrack for a documentary before going on to win an award for his work on an animated short film. This was followed by a string of high-profile remixes for the likes of Sia, Tinashe and Years and Years, as well as collaborative efforts with London singer VV Brown.

More recently during lockdowns, Pierre-Marie found himself back in France from LA, and exploring a more techno-oriented production profile in Kasztan, where he champions distinct cinematic qualities whilst staying true to his post-rock roots.
