Music with a story. The feeling at the end is determined by the beginning and further structure of a music set. Separate sounds on themselves may sound insignificant, but put together in the right order they become so meaningful, it is capable of releasing your deepest emotions…. A feeling that simply cannot be described. Just be patient and you will be rewarded. That’s the beauty of music.
After more than 10 years of producing and spinning records, lots of releases and remixes later, Francesco Pico decided the time was right to establish his own label: Magnitude Recordings. The goal of this label is to experiment with various styles of house but especially the freaky and deep ones: Forward Thinking Electronic Dance Music! The first release, in May 2005, was a great start. Everyone favourably received the combination of progressive, tech house, funk, and techno. At this moment Magnitude is supported, played and charted by many dj’s around the world. Releases already came from Francesco Pico, Murray Richardson, Stuccato Fusion, Roell Sapphire, Penoze Inc, Gilbert van Haasen, Philogresz, Tim-J and Camiel & Fono. and Remixes where done by names like Harold Heath, Stallos, Taras van de Voorde and Paul Hazendonk. Magnitude is busy to grow to a wel respected label and in the near future many great artists will be released!
After a great release on Outside the box music label owner Francesco Pico teams up with Roell Sapphire again for this 10th edition on Magnitude Recordings.
Big bird is a funky, but real peak hour track with a very powerful bass line and strong synths. It has a massive break that will get those feet on the floor and hands in the air. Autorun has that funky bass line, a crazy vocal sound and a lot of effects and edits. Round and out is a break-beat track. It’s all about the melodies messing with your head, enjoy!
