Kaluki Musik marks its fiftieth releases this February with the ‘Para Dice’ EP from label-founder Pirate Copy, backed with a Prok & Fitch remix.

Since launching Kaluki Musik back in 2010 off the back off the powerhouse events brand the label has gone on to welcome many of the leading names in contemporary house music onto the label, such as Darius Syrossian, Patrick Topping, wAFF and Steve Lawler. Here we see Pirate Copy marking a milestone fifty releases for the imprint and it’s the label founder at the helm.

The original mix of ‘Para Dice’ opens the package with Pirate Copy’s signature bumpy drum grooves, rave inspired stab sequences and spoke word vocal lines tucked into the core of the track. Prok & Fitch follow with their take on ‘Para Dice’, opting for a more direct, groove-driven approach via crunchy claps, thunderous low end hits and dynamically unfolding, modulating percussion and vocal cuts.

The second original from Pirate Copy ‘Beats Bang’ then rounds out the release, taking a more restained approach this time with the focus on stipped-back drums, chugging bass hits and an amalgamation of hooky vocal lines.
