Samaran’s new single ‘London Madness’ drops on Circa ’99, almost exactly 2 years after the international success of ‘Paris Madness’. A track that received heavy support across the DJ world, was BBC6 Music Track of the Week & Kungs named it his ‘favourite drop’ on Konbini.

‘London Madness’ transforms a cold beat into something warm and addictive, combining French Touch with minimalism. The repetitive vocal sample is from a London natives birthday guestlist.

Supported by elements of nostalgia and blended into a hypnotic beat, ‘London Madness’ is what we all need in the middle of this pandemic. With Brexit around the corner too, we should all forget about the madness for a while…

“2020 has been a mad year, after Paris being mad, it’s time for London to be mad ! In various ways, Brexit has been crazy, Covid has been crazy here too, but let’s not remember that, London Madness is a tune made to remember how mad & wild club nights in London can be” states Samaran.

London Madness is out on the 11th of December 2020.

‘Allo is a simple track made around the simple idea: keep it simple. One idea built around a toy phone with the only wish to make people dance and smile’ – Samaran.

French producer & DJ SAMARAN burst onto the scene in late 2018 with global anthem ‘PARIS MADNESS’. Catching the ears of DJ’S such as ANNIE MAC, MARY ANN HOBBS, TOM RAVENSCROFT, & BREAKBOT among many others it has accumulated north of 1.2 MILLION STREAMS on Spotify alone.

As the alias of producer / engineering extraordinaire ETIENNE, who has worked with greats such as label head BOSTON BUN, BUSY P & DOMBRESKY – SAMARAN does not disappoint with his latest offering – ‘ALLO’. The addictive synths and simple, crisp percussion keep your attention throughout when merged with the familiar tones and beeps of telephones, as he puts it:

‘Allo is a simple track made around the simple idea: keep it simple. Just one idea built around the toy phone with the only wish to make people dance and smile.’

The single comes with an equally captivating video from director CEDRIC LEGRAND, who personifies the telephone theme and entrancing nature of the track.

SAMARAN blends old school sampling techniques and vintage sounds with real drums and a modern sensibility, finding a way to keep the best of the original house sound alive and modernise it for today’s clubs.

The post ADDICTIVE SUMMER HIT FROM PARISIAN PRODUCER SAMARAN appeared first on Shane the Gamer.

The revered French house producer / engineer Etienne only recently launched a new solo project under the Samaran moniker, but it’s already making waves around the tight-knit house music community worldwide, with Dancing Astronaut going so far as to say it’s already beginning to “…incite widespread dance fevers.” Fresh off dropping his debut singles in 2018, including his true debut, the aptly named “A New Beginning,” Samaran is already back with his second club smash called “God Money War,” which is officially today through Big Beat Records.

“God Money War” embraces analog synths, distorted vocals and utilizes Roland’s classic TR-909 drum machine to build the song into a house frenzy which, true to form, could only come straight out of Paris. In Samaran’s words, the track “…was made to be played during peak times in the clubs, it’s built to progressively bring you from a raw chopped intro to a filtered rhythmic pattern, always driven by some heavy 909 beat and house vibes.”

Samaran is a new solo artist project from Parisian producer Etienne, who’s honed his craft after years of working alongside some of the top pioneering electronic labels like Ed Banger, Confession, Record Record & more. Blending old-school sampling techniques and vintage sounds with actual drums, he modernizes the original house sound for today’s clubs. His latest track “Paris Madness” was supported by Martin Garrix, The Magician, Michael Calfan, Martin Solveig, Anna Lunoe, Just Kiddin, Purple Disco Machine, Addal, Melé, and more. It also garnered international radio support, including spot plays on BBC 6Music with Amy Lame, Mary Anne Hobbs and Nemone.

Considering this is only the third official single from Samaran, it’s safe to say that he has truly arrived as an exciting new voice to keep an eye on in the house world.

“Paris Madness is the perfect warm up track that can turn your night into a NIGHT” – Boston Bun.

Following an incredible 18 months rammed with wall to wall bangers; ‘Spread Love (Paddington)’, ‘Missing You’, and the current dancefloor crusher ‘Better Together’and remixes of the Mark Ronson & Miley Cyrus monster ‘Nothing Breaks Like A Heart’, MK’s ‘Back & Forth’ (ft. Jonas Blue & Becky Hill) and Cassius’ ‘W18’, one of France’s most loved house DJs Boston Bun turns into label head honcho releasing Samaran’s new flavour of French clubland ‘Paris Madness’ on his own imprint Circa ’99.

Samaran is the organic new project from Etienne, a French producer engineer who’s created alongside Boston Bun, Busy P, Dombresky & Point Point, some of the most notorious in the French electronic scene. Samaran is spawning raw energy through his music, shaped by signature analog sounds blended with modern sensibility and a French touch.“Paris Madness speaks for itself” explains Etienne, “it’s drenched in the vibes you can find in the clubs all over the French capital, driven by a frenetic bassline & groove replicating the rhythm of the city.”

“Building like a Parisian Party – galvanising the crowd, always aiming for more energy and positive vibes until peak euphoria, then moving the groove down to the after party by the serene French river as the sun rises.” “This track is the perfect tool to level up the atmosphere and tumble into serious things” adds Thibaud, “I love doing warm ups, it’s the hardest DJ exercise, it’s a shaolin science”.
