The NYC label and party celebrates five years of club nights, records and dance-floor subversion. About us. Contact us. We revisit five of their favorite LPH releases. I was in Paris, and Pierre from Paradis and I met up to grab dinner. I was talking about my next single, and he said they had never done a remix before. I sent him the track, and a week later they sent us this. They did a bunch of stuff I wish I had done. EUG: We met a while back. We had a lot of mutual friends and I think we booked Jacques for a party here in SF.
He showed up with a broken nose, and a Groucho Marx disguise. Jacques Renault photo by Mathias Cruz. What's your vision with releasing dance music? Just as the label operates now, everything has happened through organic ideas, happenstance situations and drunk decision making.
If we put out a record after hearing a distinctive demo by a producer we don't know, he becomes a new friend thanks to the internet. Jacques is about to release a record on Public Release, what can you both say about it? Eug: Yes! My timeline is what I value the most, all the twists of this rollercoaster is what comes out.
Does that make sense? Tell us about its creation process, how did the lockdown affect the way you produce and approach your own music?
JR : Wow, I appreciate that. This all kinda started while we were in Austria for 3 months. I had an hour or two after our daughter went to sleep at night to work on music. Sometimes I bounced two. I was going through older sessions and making new ones and picking through hours of samples and stems I have recorded over the years. I rediscovered things I forgot about or finished things that needed finishing.
Some were close, some ended up nothing like where it started. I was getting up to 50 tracks or so and there was something building so once the idea of doing my third album with Nik came up I knew the time was right.
JR : Oh man, I hope my family continues to be healthy and safe! My time is hers. NY feels different but the same. They kinda capture what I fantasized about music in this city and they still remain favorites since they define the period of music at that time to me. Start to finish the arrangements just sit right. They are songs, so they stand out in the club, at home and pretty much wherever. Thank you Morgan and Darshan. I studied graphic design and in my final year I focused on working in the wood shop.
His work is centered, specific and consistent. It was closed off from the public for so long, covered in scaffolding and nothing to see through the windows for years. Before DJing, punk rock and art I was obsessed with baseball.
One of my favorite players was Roberto Clemente since I had this fascination with his stats and just how he was a legend. Living in South Williamsburg there are a couple parks that stand out, so when I discovered the one closest to me was named after him it became my go-to spot to take a break. I still have his cards, of course. Better than the subway since it flooded after it rained today. Click the link we sent to , or click here to log in.
