PERMVAC 195-1LP
|
Based in Munich, Germany, the producer, part-time DJ, and Permanent Vacation label co-head Tom Bioly, aka TB, delivers new romantics, inspired by influences like The Cure's "The Holy Hour", Boards of Canada's late '90s electronica, Miami Vice tropic percussion, and Angelo Badalamenti's Twin Peaks. Acid drops, string distortions, lush melody bits, hushed robo vox, and washed space guitars are being layered and sprinkled over machine beats and disco drums. TB's first release "Invitation To Love" made it on John Talabot's vinyl-only Hiverned 10" imprint (2012) and was voted amongst the best 10" releases by UK Fact Magazine. The title track on follow-up EP City Girl on Permanent Vacation (2015), was licensed to the independent film All These Sleepless Nights by director Michal Marczak. In 2017, TB followed with Heartbreak Hotel (PERMVAC 166-1EP), a double twelve-inch release with eight tracks of melancholic dance noir set in smoke-filled darkness. In 2018, he followed with the Night Heat single, of which a RMXD EP with contributions by Gerd Janson, Sascha Funke, DJ Hotel, and Bostro Pesopeo. Includes printed inner sleeve and download code.

PERMVAC 177-1EP
|
After last year's Heartbreak Hotel (PERMVAC 166-1EP, 2017), including the mighty "Glitter", here comes Night Heat, the new TB EP. Wave house, disco noir, acid love, and an all Roland gear slo-mo session of the early '90s trance-rave classic "Schöneberg" by Marmion. Gerd Janson noted "sounds good" when he dropped it at Sven Väth's party on Ibiza.

After contributing "Invitation to Love" to Hiverned # 2 (2012) on John Talabot's Hivern Discs, a track greatly supported by DJs such as Panorama Bar resident ND Baumecker, Scotland's most precious jewels the Optimo guys, and, most certainly, John Talabot, TB (aka Permanent Vacation co-owner Tom Bioly) is back with his very first four-track EP.
