Fenomenon - Tropic Of Capricorn (Third Attempt Remix) [Beatservice Records]

Fenomenon made a welcome return to release action in 2021 following an extended hiatus, treating admirers of their work to four delectable cuts of immaculately constructed and powerfully moving music. The most up-tempo of a roundly horizontal crop was the EP's "Tropic Of Capricorn." The track's spellbinding melodies, vibrant rhythms, and pristine production made an instant impression on Balearic-minded collectors. With such a seductive set of ingredients, the track was an obvious candidate for rework treatment.

Third Attempt's rise into the cosmic subconscious has been as swift as it is richly deserved, with the young artist consistently serving a steady stream of beautifully-formed sounds since first arriving on Beatservice in 2018. True to the form he's displayed throughout his outstanding release inventory, Third Attempt's delicate remix of "Tropic Of Capricorn" is the latest in a long line of sparkling compositions. Making use of the memorable melodic signature of the original, Third Attempt pulls the track's dreamy refrains sharply into focus, re-framing the emotive top-line over snappy beats and sub-heavy bass for a stirring club workout. The music effortlessly unfolds, building to a blissfully introspective breakdown before bursting back into floor-filling life, with delicate textures subtly supporting the track's iconic synth lead.

Providing a gentle yet startling rendition of this gorgeous track, Third Attempt breathes renewed vitality into an already magnificent composition - and the results are unmissable.

Reggie Got Beats is busting out from the south shore of the Trondheim Fjord, bringing his funky electronic Nordic disco to the masses. A triple threat — DJ, producer, and drummer — Reggie’s tunes jump among the spaces found between soul, house, R&B, and disco.

Reggie Got Beats is a force to be reckoned with — on the dance floor!

Reggie Got Beats returns to Beatservice with “On The Floor”, a track that first appeared as a 2016 Bandcamp-only release on Diskorama. Here it’s been overhauled, remastered, and re-remixed for the year 2020. “On The Floor” is a groovy afrobeat-inspired deep disco number featuring Rohey Taalah singing a familiar and rousing refrain. The instrumentation percolates, with bouncy bass lines, filtered synth pads, and gritty rhythms. Included is original extended Dub version from Ralph Myerz (Klik Records, Disco Piñata) and a brand new mix from Tromsø’s own Third Attempt (Beatservice, Paper Recordings). The latter intensifies the funk quotient in a Prince-like fashion, sure to inspire a round of booty shaking. Get on the floor!

Third Attempt - Reprise EP (Beatservice Records)

Third Attempt is Torje Fagertun Spilde, a 22 year old artist and DJ originally from Asker, just outside of Oslo. Now established in Tromsø, Norway, he is one of the young forces in the rising new generation of electronic producers from the birthplace of the Northern Disco Groove.

Third Attempt has a distinct and uplifting flavor, firmly planted in the smoother areas of deep house. His influences range from jazz to ambient, trip hop to classic house. Third Attempt’s Beatservice single, “Shoreline,” accumulated numerous accolades and tens of thousands of plays on various streaming platforms.

After three 2-track singles for Beatservice, it’s now time for a new four track EP from Third Attempt. The Reprise EP takes on a jazzier flavor than previous releases, illustrated by the funky guitar chords and sunshine vocals of the opening “Be Yourself.” The title track follows in spacier deep house territory, filled with layers of synths and melodic phrases ready to propel a dance floor. “Sol” wouldn't be out of place on an early Classic release with its chunky rhythms, Chicago-influenced keys, and squelchy effects. The EP gets back on a jazzy, groovier tip with the closing “Holdning” — this one will get the club moving at early doors, no doubt about it. Vibe on!

Chris Massey (Paper Recordings) – “Be Yourself is an incredible piece of Scandinavian style disco house. Lovely stuff!”

Third Attempt - On Tonight (Beatservice Records)

Third Attempt is Torje Fagertun Spilde, a 20 year old artist and DJ originally from Asker, just outside of Oslo. Now established in Tromsø , Norway, he is one of the young forces in the rising new generation of electronic producers from the birthplace of the Northern Disco Groove.

Third Attempt has a distinct and uplifting flavor, firmly planted in the smoother areas of deep house. His influences range from jazz to ambient, trip hop to classic house. Third Attempt’s Beatservice single, “Shoreline,” accumulated numerous accolades and tens of thousands of plays on various streaming platforms.

This new Beatservice double A-side single opens with “On Tonight” which takes old school sounds and transports them to modern club sets. A funky bass bounce is complemented with squelchy synth lines and an atmospheric, submerged breakdown section. It’s all driven by an insistent rhythm track to keep the floor in motion. “Loading Music” introduces a shuffling breakbeat that anchors jazzy electric piano chords and more analog synth fun. The result is dreamy but propulsive, potentially inspiring introspective dance floor moments. Another winning single from Third Attempt!
