Hugging the bend and blowing kisses since 2012, Antinote has been a vessel of choice for lovers of left-of-centre dance music and retro-laced boogie. Covering a supremely wide range of styles, the Parisian outlet has carved out a musical lane truly its own by putting on a nonstop celebration of electronics\u2019 inexhaustible power of enthralment. A pledge of quality-driven curation and never-ending search for the next thrill that\u2019s proven untiringly relevant throughout the years and opens onto its second decade of existence with equal panache.<\/p>\n
Toasting to its ten years splashing the game with continuously reasserted outsider bravura, label captain Zaltan has bottled some of the finest expressions out Antinote\u2019s versatile vaults of sound to form the present \u201cX\u201d compilation, \u201cten years of loving notes and foolin around 2012-2022″. From totem animal IUEKE\u2019s oddball musique concr\u00e8te (\u201cfiano-church”) to the candid synth-pop of Lithuanian outfit Domenique Dumont (\u201cLa Dolce Vita”), via Feminielli\u2019s outr\u00e9 mix of ghetto-house and ominous croon (\u201cNobody\u2019s Boy\u201d) and Tel-Aviv vibist Alek Lee\u2019s signature synth-splattered 80s wave (\u201cDifferent Plans\u201d), it\u2019s a smorgasbord of colours and vibrations that prepares to avalanche across your sound system.<\/p>\n
Take the esoteric shoegaze of Epsilove, Shelter and Thomas Riguelle (\u201cFrom The Spaceship in My Room\u201d) and prepare to move upstream a river of saturated guitars and all-engulfing reverbs; let Low Jack\u2019s jagged floor aggressor drill a hole in your head (\u201cFeel 2020\u201d) or opt for further ankle-breaking UK-bass-influenced riddim traction from DK & Geena (\u201cBelleTech One\u201d). A further cosmic-friendly epic, Chim\u00e8re FM (I:Cube!) embarks us on a ride near Saturn\u2019s belt (\u201cLa Gen\u00e8se du Monstre \u00e0 Suze”) whereas former Antinote apprentice River Yarra snipes a hail of Italo-informed arpeggios and giallo-esque bass murk to compelling effect (\u201cBlooms\u201d) and L.I.E.S. head honcho Ron Morelli goes all in with a formidable, old-school dusty house chugger (\u201cTribute\u201d).<\/p>\n
There\u2019s obviously more to “Antinote X” than the sum of its parts, and Jean Luc\u2019s post-Plantasia jazz hybrid (\u201cLa Truite\u201d), Arabica\u2019s decadent, anti-colonial spoken number (\u201cMulto Storia”) or fellow Antinote in-house visual designer Nico Motte\u2019s vintage disco churner (\u201cAll The Money In The World\u201d) are there to attest. Not to forget Panoptique, up with a lashing, dissonant treat for the senses (\u201cUn Licenciement\u201d), Leo Martelli under guise as Sammy Patanegra with a tribal jacking weapon (\u201cMaria\u201d), Pont Levis floating into emotional hyperspace (\u201cL\u2019Espace et le Coeur de L’\u00c2me\u201d), Trigger Moral in with a marvel of a hip-hop gem emerged from some retro-futuristic wormhole (\u201csoul assssn\u201d) and Laporte rounding it off downtempo, modular ambient style for good measure (\u201cSleepers\u201d). Ten years on, Antinote still leading the pack.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":550526,"template":"","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[8018,12362],"product_tag":[31317,32264],"giftcard-category":[],"musicartist":[4867],"musiclabel":[4910],"musicstyle":[38524,37918,37919,37955,37982,38029],"distributormusic":[31210],"musicyear":[],"musiccountry":[39485],"weekmusic":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-550519","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-back-in-stock","7":"product_cat-out-of-stock","8":"product_tag-direct-labels-22-23","9":"product_tag-discogs","10":"musicartist-various-artists","11":"musiclabel-antinote","12":"musicstyle-balearic","13":"musicstyle-disco","14":"musicstyle-downtempo","15":"musicstyle-house","16":"musicstyle-leftfield","17":"musicstyle-tribal","18":"distributormusic-antinote","19":"musiccountry-france","21":"first","22":"outofstock","23":"featured","24":"taxable","25":"shipping-taxable","26":"purchasable","27":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/550519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/550526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=550519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"giftcard-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/giftcard-category?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"musicartist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicartist?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"musiclabel","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiclabel?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"musicstyle","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicstyle?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"distributormusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/distributormusic?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"musicyear","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musicyear?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"musiccountry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/musiccountry?post=550519"},{"taxonomy":"weekmusic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yoyaku.io\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/weekmusic?post=550519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
