Eden Burns

And The Make Believers

Public Possession

Public Possession head Eden Burns releases his debut album "Eden Burns & The Makebelievers". The dance music prophet, notorious for his ingenious string of club tracks (check the "Big Beat Manifesto" series), is gifting the world with yet another cult creating, magic musical adventure.

Ecstatic beats, melodies that cast a spell on you, if there ever was something to truly, blindly believe in: it’s the power of music? Be Free, set foot into the garden of Eden. All apples are to be bitten, the snake's venom is mildly hallucinogenic. Get your eyes opened for everything that is true enough and beyond.

In all seriousness though - one of the poster boys for the new dance generation has dropped his debut LP. Step on board and enjoy the trip!

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: I always knew Eden Burns had summat like this up his sleeve. A full length album touching on new wave, house, Balearic and oddball disco moods like only our favourite New Zealander can do! Taking his ethos of FUN, but also showing us just how splendid a musician he is. There's even a bit of a tribute to the 13th Floor Elevators on penultimate track "C2P" !!

A2) Goblin

A4) Burns Theme
A5) Vocal Tune

DJ City & Manuel Darquart

I Need

Public Possession

A naughty but nice cover of Coco's "I Need A Mircale" (or, if you're a bit younger, Fragma's "Toca's Mircale") here by DJ City & Manuel Darquart who take the track into dark Italo / new beat territories and swap the gender of the vocalist!

They've done a clever job, not trying to recreate the vibe of the original but instead relying on the familiarity of the lyrics to latch onto; whilst painting a deep, dark, throbbing instrumental base in which the vocals can sit. This'll work everywhere from Panorama Bar to The White Hotel, and with three cheeky versions to utilize, it's an ergonomic take on this frankly massive hit, destined to stay lodged in record bags throughout the rest of summer and beyond...

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Love it or hate it, a cover of Coco's "I Need A Miracle" is guaranteed to get the kids singing along at your favourite festival this summer. Thankfully the instrumental is stylishly done, so you won't feel too cheeky when a thousand gurning Tamara's have it right off to this one.

TRACK LISTING

A1) I Need (Italo Version)
B1) I Need (Club Version)
B2) I Need (Beatless Version)

Speckman

Noisemaker

Public Possession

Speckman DJ & producer hailing from Hamburg. Co-founder of the tastemaking partyseries Dreamteam and resident at the legendary Golden Pudel Club is finally presenting his new album titled "Noisemaker" on Public Possession. His eclectic style as a DJ is perfectly represented by the music on the record, sitting comfortably between tech-house, indie, new rave and electronica; it could probably be best described as a pretty epic take on electroclash in a fully updated, reloaded 2025 version. Well executed party music with a nod to the past yet fully in the present and not taking itself too seriously. The mellow, deeper episodes are the topping on the bright, pink cake. Speckman is going to jump out of it and right at you. Find him soon in a DJ booth close to you, no matter if he is supporting The Dare on his EU Tour or holding controls at the Golden Pudel Club. It’s going to be wild and full of surprises.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Nooiiice n tidy LP from the bar tender of the Golden Pudel who's absorbed bare talent from the rotating assembly of stars that have graced the club. Moving through synth, bass and house stylings with an effortless charm and silky finesse, Speckman comes through with what could be one of the biggest surprise hits of the year.

TRACK LISTING

A1) A Question (feat. Andreas Raser)
A2) All Again (feat. Maya Lempelius)

RIP Swirl

Perfectly Blue

Public Possession

What does it mean to be perfectly blue? Perhaps it means swimming contently in the waters of deep, complex emotions, or simply learning to spin low moments into casual days. For Luka Seifert, who makes music as RIP Swirl, the idea of being fine with not being happy all the time was the catalyst for his second album, Perfectly Blue. The two words captured something: learning to embrace being blue, while using music as a way of processing emotions.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: A bit My Bloody Valentine pastiche (executed perfectly I might add), a bit ASO (from last year?) and a little bit of Tamaryn... this has come out of nowhere and won most of us over in a heartbeat.

TRACK LISTING

A1) Perfectly Blue (feat. Winter)
A2) Bizarre (feat. Maria Somerville)
A3) Space Blues
A4) Found You Out (feat. Alias Error)
A5) Drowsy
B1) Call Me (feat. Tanukichan)
B2) Sundown
B3) Late Night Special
B4) Nothing To Do
B5) Negative Fantasy (feat. Untitled (halo))

Baba Stiltz

Shame On Dry Land (OST)

Public Possession

Baba Stiltz has written and produced the award winning soundtrack for the Swedish Movie "Shame On Dry Land (Syndabocken)". Awarded the Guldbagge price for best feature film soundtrack in 2024, the music is dense, at times oppressive, than again light-Mediterranean, all perfectly accompanying the story's vibe.

Baba Stiltz moving between Stockholm & LA. A myth, a young legend. Writing music since the tender age of 13, not bound by genres or expectations. Used to do Skweee before he defined his own sound of tech-house - skipped that (temporarily?). Now moving on to more folkloristic styles: country, rock, indie… you name it. Good music.

TRACK LISTING

A1) Welcome Dimman
A2) Kicki
A3) Island
A4) Shame On Dry Land
A5) Follow Me
A6) Fredrik’s Gone
A7) Again
A8) Body Drop

Wolfram

Remix EP

Public Possession

Collection of alt-version / remixes from Wolfram's last EP and also released on Public Possession.

"Rein! sees an extended 12" mix and also coupled with a 'Westbam Electro Mix' which adds all the neccessary freestyle flavour you'd expect from this Egyptian Lover commissioned version.

"My Love Is For Real" sees a club-ready 'Dance Mix' coupled with DJ Digola & RIP Swirl's Piano mix - a crazed hardcore-breaks hybrid with rugged AF beat and tastefully, retrotastic vocal chops and piano stabs, before blasting thru into endorphin-rushing infinite. Massive!

STAFF COMMENTS

Sil says: Superb collection of revisions for Wolfram's Rein and 'My Love Is Real' featuring no other than Haddaway! All great and good, particularly 'Rein'. However, the original blatantly uses the beats from an early 2000s minimal techno monster a la Gui Boratto. Bassline taken out and drum kick left in. Westbam take on 'Rein' reminds me of early DJ Koze with its samples of German phone conversations. Just for these two tracks you really need this. Getting one myself.

TRACK LISTING

Side 1
1. Rein (feat Egyptian Love - Extended 12" Mix)
2. Rein (feat Yung Hurn & Egyptian Lover - Westbam Electro Mix)
