Two years ago Dairmount got hooked on the fresh sounds of a young producer/DJ by the name of Martin Nowakowski. The first result of their artistic collaboration was the ‘Reframe EP’, a 4-tracker whose mesmerizing sounds grabbed the attention of quite some dignitaries of the international club scene such as Jimpster, Laurent Garnier, Steve Bug, Gerd and Simbad.

Living the A&R to the fullest, Dairmount worked closely with Nowakowski to further develop his vision and sounds. After sophomore EP’s from Art of Tones and Marlow, Room with a View now proudly presents ‘Magenta’, Nowakowski’s follow up to last year’s ‘Reframe’.

As a colour, magenta represents the artistic union of the energetic red and the introspective violet, which is demonstrated in the 5 different shades of the artist on this EP. ‘Magenta 1’ is a light-hearted house banger, built around a sexy disco sample, whereas the vibes of ‘Magenta 2’ take us into minor musical territory.
‘Magenta 3’ delivers the very same hypnotizing trademark sounds we were introduced to through Nowakowski first RWAV EP . ‘Magenta 4’ represents a deep bounce, with intriguing bleeps and cut-up vocals. Finally Nowakowski’s love of Detroit is displayed through the abyssal synths and bouncing beats in ‘Magenta 5’.
The ‘Magenta’ EP displays a sonic portrait of the artist as a young man, it’s a freshly sounding blueprint of what’s to come. The future is bright, the future is … magenta.

“Really cool tracks”
SLAM / Soma / Scotland
“Awesome release”
THE QUANTUM MECHANICS / Composite, Unfokused / Sweden
“Love the fusions here, can hear really unexpected elements like a distant echo of Jeff Mills in Magenta 3… I think Magenta 1 will get great reactions though, the link between ‘future jungle’ and deep house/techno is brilliantly drawn”
JOE MUGGS / Mixmag, Sound of The Cosmos / UK
“My goodness, “Magenta 3″ hit me straight away. This is one of the finest house tunes I could possibly think of. There’s a lot of unbelievable percussion madness going on, sampling at it’s best and full thriving chords I was hooked on from the beginning. WOW!”
ANDI BARTH / Phonanza FM / Germany
“Another great RWAV release for the crate. track 01 is probably my favorite of the lot. such a nice, infectious groove and perfect for my sets. make no mistake though .. the whole EP is proper quality but what else do you expect with a RWAV release”
