"I have been in love with the Detroit sound of techno since forever, so when I discovered Subradeon, I was immediately struck by the soul and energy of their music. I have been lucky enough to get to know Giuseppe and Salvatore over the last year and so it was always a dream for me to have them release a record together on Sous. Now this is happening, I couldn't be more excited. They have made three spectacularly good tracks that I know will last forever in my heart, and hopefully in yours too" opens Anja. Sous has been drip feeding us top line releases all year long, despite the world coming to a standstill, Anja believes that continuing to release music is important to keep spirits high. She has been showcasing some of the newer talent from around the globe alongside some household names including Marcus Suckut, Fort Romeau, and Mella Dee to the last release from Italian duo, Reform. Hailed as the new school of the techno scene, Subradeon might have grown up in the Neapolitan underground scene, but their sound has become a melting pot of influences from their current home town of Berlin and the duo's self-confessed spiritual home of Detroit. Giuseppe Salone and Salvatore Lannotta deliver their debut release Breaking Down Borders on Sous, compromising of their characteristic raw soul, profound meaning and energetic purpose. This package includes a remix from Techno pioneer Stephen Brown (Djax Records, Transmat, Music Man).

Anja Schneider releases her first album in nine years on new label Sous Music. Sometimes you need to step away from everything that's familiar to really grow and challenge yourself as an artist. The Berlin-based artist has never felt more out of her comfort zone. Or inspired. The musical manifestation of this bold new era is SoMe, a nine-track calling card that not only represents Schneider's own creative apex and its freedom. As is the case with all Schneider's productions, this is a deeply personal work. But what makes it shine above everything else that has come before it, is how expressive and free it is, while remaining entirely authentic to her own musical history, passions, and personal story. The project begun in November 2016, in Anja's basement to be precise. Getting back to her music digging roots she whiled away the hours among the dusty boxes of her vinyl collection -- re-immersing herself in old jungle and D&B records, classic house, and the Berlin-bred techno of the '90s that she fell in love with when she first moved to the German capital in 1993. Alongside her co-producer and partner Jan-Eric Scholz, she set studio dates turned into lost afternoons, then weekends. If Anja wasn't touring or spending time with her son, she was engrossed in free-flowing productions sessions, channeling musical impressions past and present, and recent trips to South Africa that cemented a love for ragga and crafting outstanding vocal works. SoMe begins with the dusty panoramic tones of "The Sun". Other highlights include the catchy ragga tones of "All I See", inspired by her trip to Cape Town for CTEMF in 2015 and exemplifies Schneider's knack for creating music that feels at once fresh, yet familiar. Elsewhere she flexes her song-crafting muscle linking up with the Stereo MCs after a chance meeting with vocalist Rob Birch. A big fan of the group's Connected album (1992), Schneider floated the idea of a vocal contribution to her fledgling album project and the irresistible earworm "Sanctuary" was born. An artist with tried and true roots in techno, SoMe of course reflects an Anja Schneider DJ experience, with cuts such as "Got Me With A Bang" and even "Night Out", that mines the spirit of her own debut album Beyond The Valley (2008). And rounding out the album on a particularly personal note comes the ambient track "Shadows".
