After Holger Zilske (aka Smash TV), Catz n’ Dogz (aka 3 Channels) and Paul Brtschitsch, Mobilee’s new offshoot label Leena - a label designed for ‘guest appearances only’ from respected producers world-wide - releases its fourth release since the label’s beginning in June 2007: Rodriguez Jr. with the ‘Rubbo Swingo’ EP. The first track, „Rubbo Swingo“ jacks in with a heavy and rolling bottom-line, cut up with mindbending spacey synth detail. Designed for lateness/designed for loudness. The second track „Soledad“ steps in with marching beats and lets a jazz inspired melody take hold as it draws you into the trippy deepness. Rodriguez Jr. is also known as one half of French Dance Act The Youngsters, signed to Laurent Garnier’s F-Com - releasing albums ‘Lemon Orange’ in 2001 and ‘the Army of 1-0′ in 2004, as well as a plethora of EP releases. |
LEENA04 in the media |
2000 and One: “THIS THE ABSOLUTE BOMB!!!! that B SIDE should be the A SIDE!!! 100% sure about that. ralf, anja you guys did a wonderfull a&r job. congrats with this hit. 1 no in my january 2008 chart!!! crazy, crazy, crazy....wow thanx for this!!! X 2000 and One” 2000 and One Jan 2008 Chart:: “ 1. Rodriguez Jr. - Soledad | Leena ” Anthony Collins (Get Physical): “ "B1 - Soledad sweet sunny summer track it will make pass the winter with some sun for my ears." ” Dasding (Stephan Hinz): “I love „Soledad“. Wicked track. Will play and play and play and play… ” Dave Ellesmere (Intacto/Remote: “ "rubbo swingo : rodriguez jr is going for headtrip with his super bendy modulating floor filler if this doesnt freak the dancefloor out .... the party is over..." ” Debug (GER): “Erst mal die Randomsynthbreitseite geben und dann mit der holzigen Bassdrum nachschlagen und dann absinken lassen und aus dem Dunkel der Welt eine Stimmung hervorzaubern, die einen einfach mit ihrer dunklen Gewalt und dem drohenden Gewitter überrollt. Ein Stück, das sich zieht wie ein frisch geputzter Kaugummi in der Chipproduktion dieses "Rubbo Swingo". "Soledad", die Rückseite, wirkt zunächst etwas blass, federt dann aber mit sehr warmen Melodien über den spanischen Dorfplatz bei Nacht und schreit leise nach der Seele in Techno. Kann er haben. Sehr feine Platte mit klassischen und dennoch erfrischenden Hits. bleed•••••” Deejay Mag (E): “ La mitad del sensacional dúo tech The Youngsters pasa a formar parte del roster del sub-sello para guests de Mobilee, Leena. Y lo hace a merced de “Rubbo Swingo”, EP de dos cortes en el que Olivier Mateu muestra su faceta más intimista en una mezcla de house/techno realmente interesante. Mucha clase destila la música de este hombre, profunda y sincera a partes iguales. La factura de ambos tracks es muy similar, aunque, posiblemente, “Soledad”, la cara b del EP, destaque por esa preciosista melodía, reconocible al instante. Iván Ramos” DJ Gio MC-505: “Oh oh! The return of one half of The Youngsters! Simply incredible and interesting for my ears. The track for me is situated on bside and it's called "Soledad" where micro melodies follow rollin' rhythms and mystical approach. A new confirm for Leena Music.” Franck Roger (Realtone): “Playlist!” Jimpster (Freerange): “Rubbo Swingo is a killer! Love the twisted synth hook and deep held pad. This has got to have them going a bit loopy on the floor hasn't it? Nice crispy drum groove too.” Josh Wink (Ovum): “ "I like the Soledad track the best of the two. Will be playing for sure. A catchy tune. Not something I haven't heard before, but it's good! Similar to the Loco Dice track on m-nus..."” Karotte (Cocoon): “b seite ist super. i love it. aber auch die a seite kommt zum einsatz. gute platte.” KIKI (Bpitch): “soledad" ist ein grossartiges stúck musik! habe es in playa del carmen gespielt und ziemlich viele leute haben auch danach gefragt! #2 auf mein charts für trax mag! Leena 04 is killer! ” Last.FM: “Rubbo Swingo: it swings allright! the warm kick and bassline foundation have enough groove to move yer feet while the wonderful weirdness of the mid range while please the k cadets. Shuffling mini hats and white noise complete the top end ... is this guy a bricky by any chance? Excellent production that will please the most discerning djs and the ones that like to follow trends. Soledad: Awww... da tribal beat is back! watch it fly this summer on his mini guise with twisted synths and layers and layers of right down dirty low ends. Forget about strident electro-crap. It's all about the bottom end baby! ... and a little bit of melody. ” Last.FM: “ Rubbo Swingo: it swings allright! the warm kick and bassline foundation have enough groove to move yer feet while the wonderful weirdness of the mid range while please the k cadets.

The bass is a simple rolling pulse, but the top lines are a transmission from the dark side of the moon; rising analogue synth lines that don't quite fomr a melody, more a wash of sonic odness and a call to worship at the alter of wonkyness. Flip over for "Soledad" which takes a much more melodic route to the arrive in similar territory. This time gentle keys are employed in the fashion of some of Loco Dice's work to gentel envelop the listener in a bissfull aural coccon. ” Markus Kafka (MTV): “einer meiner derzeitigen lieblingstracks von einem meiner derzeitigen lieblingslabels. A1 hab ich am samstag gespielt, der laden stand kopf. tiptop!” Mike Monday (Om/Playtime): “Played the A side twice at the weekend and I've put it on my latest mix - one of the best records I've had for pure unadulterated dancefloor joy in a while.” Mike Shannon (Cynosure): “Excellent work on the Bside! Very familiar to something from the past but with an extra dimension added that puts this production above. This would be my favorite Leena to date. ” Sasse (Moodmusic): “quite good, will play and support ! ” shinedoe (intacto): “Top 10: #5” Shinedoe (Intacto): “Soleda! support! shinedoe” Tobi Neumann (Cocoon): “i like soledad. nice sad melody & good production.” |
