Doorn Records catches up with Manuel de la Mare & Paul Thomas on their upcoming release


At only 28, Paul Thomas is someone who is causing something of a major stir in the dance music fraternity being a Godskitchen worldwide resident, Toolroom records producer, Global Underground artist and stalwart member of the nu breed of house music. After massive releases on Toolroom, Spinnin Records, Strictly and Data Records, he’s hooking up with Manuel De La Mare again for a fresh round of ‘buona musica’ on Doorn Records. As we know Manuel with his soaring profile and constantly growing international followers and fans, he also launched his own labels 303Lovers and Hotfingers back in 2007 along with Alex Kenji and Marshall. Needless to say we have some catching up to do with these guys prior to the worldwide release of their new track called ‘Circle of Life’.




  
Are you guys big a fan of The Lion King, or was the title for the new track ‘Circle of Life’ on Doorn Records a coincidence?
Paul: Funnily enough, someone on Twitter asked me if Elton John was on vocals on the track the other day - they clearly haven't heard the track! Manuel actually came up with the name, I just went along as it sounded cool!
Manuel: Haha, no i'm not a fan of the Lion King, actually I never watched that movie. I have some blurred memories how the title came out – it was after dinner with John Acquaviva and my girfriend, we were all very inspired looking for new track titles and this Circle of Life grabbed my attention. Later when we finished this track with Paul, I remembered these words and I thought it would be perfect for this track: dynamic and emotional, like the life is.

How do you start your circle of life in the morning?
Manuel: The last weeks I’ve been waking up at night like a proper vampire and my favorite start of the day is a good breakfast with scrambled eggs and Greek cheese.
Paul: I'm a bit of an addict when it comes to checking my placings on Beatport, so the first thing I do every morning is check the Beatport charts on my iPhone. Then I always plan to make an early start in the studio for around 9am, which actually turns into 1pm because I get side-tracked so much!

And how do you usually end it after a gig?
Paul: At an after party, then an after-after party, then an after-after-after party.
Manuel: I'm often too nervous and excited after a gig to have some sleep, so if there are no after parties I chill in the bathtub of the hotel. And after that, I get the best time for sleeping on the flight back home.

Which track is your all time favorite to play during sets?
Manuel: Without mentioning classics that all people know, I still love playing ‘FLG – Amplifier’ and also a remix I did for Paul about a year ago for a track called ‘Konduktor’.
Paul: I go through stages of playing different ones. ‘Mory Kante - Yeke Yeke' & ‘Da Hool - Meet Her At The Love Parade' have been recent favorites. But if I had to pick only 1, it would probably be ‘Sasha - Xpander'.

Is there a specific producer you would like to work with in the future and if so, why him/her?
Manuel: Bob Sinclar, because I have to say thanks to him for being into house music.
Paul: There's so many nowadays that it's difficult to choose one! I really like Eric Prydz, whether its under Pryda or Cirez D he constantly delivers. So I'd probably say him.



                      'Circle of Life' will be released on Doorn Record 5th of April 2011.

BINGO PLAYERS - LAME BRAINED (STEFANO NOFERINI REMIX)
When Bingo Players produced their first tracks back in 2006, Italian dj Stefano Noferini had already been spinning records for over 25 years. An old-timer, some might say. A monument of dance, others claim. Either way, Noferini proved he is here to stay. The musical careers of Bingo Players and the Italian stallion evolved somewhat simultaneously: sizzling for several years, but really exploding since 2009. Both are topping the dance charts regularly with great progressive, house and tech releases ever since. It’s needless to say combining the Bingo sound with the thriving Noferini beats is a match made in house heaven. The two finally come together in a banging Stefano Noferini remix of Bingo Players’ latest release ‘Lame Brained’ on their Hysteria Records.
