MIGUEL Bastida’s influential label Be One Records celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2021 starting with a new remix by Wade of one of the biggest tracks from the last few years on the imprint, Tipys And Tipys, by the Spanish label boss.
Label regular and fellow Spaniard Wade returns to Be One after his massive track Por Ejemplo last year. The result is a steamy house track with frazzled synths to melt your mind and big vocals full of soul.
We caught up with Miguel this week and asked him to talk us through ten of his favourite tracks on Be One Records from the past decade. He told us:
“I’m really excited about this special year. 10 years is a great balance for a serious project label like Be One Records. It’s time to think about all that we have done and all that we want to do. There are great releases are on the way, like the last one remixed by Wade, and there are many more big releases coming.”
“The pandemic has been a strange time if you look back for the normality with gigs and the way that we were used to, but in another way I’m positive and thanks to the pandemic, I have time again to do music and I can get involved in projects that before the pandemic I hadn’t been able to. I’m trying to do my best to invest time in these kind of things, like more time to make music, another solo project outside of music and more time to be with the family, simple things!”
Listen to Miguel’s Be One Records top ten and read what he had to say below.
Miguel Bastida – Come On Everybody (Wade Remix)
“Without a doubt, one of the tracks that most represents us in Be One Records. This one was played around the world by artists like Claptone. An elegant remix, it’s perfect for the dancefloor and features a vocal that makes it unmistakable.”
Josu Freire – Chance
“Our “#1 Minimal Beatport” for almost 2 months in 2017. This one perfectly defines our Deep Tech concept with incredible vocals and a very dub base.”
Antonio Rec – Boss
“Supporting the young promises, in this case, the Italian Antonio Rec provides us tech house with a lot of groove and acid basses, great sound quality with catchy touches of rap vocals.”
Pedro Mirano – One More
“Elegant underground track with a commercial breakdown, Pedro shows us how he is able to merge both styles without losing energy at any time.”
Ekoboy – Dead Like Elvis
“Another track that defines the spirit of Be One Records, with house distinctions and looking for the sound of the great festivals, Ekoboy finds a place with this excellent track for lovers of synths.”
Dennis Cruz – Motion
“An example of the great cast of top-level artists that have passed through our family, here Dennis Cruz began to outline his style, with fewer commercial elements but very catchy and groovy.”
Fernando Guzman – Bunker (Sidney Charles Remix)
“Another great artist who has released on our label with his unmistakable sound, Sidney Charles, at that time was already beginning to define his sound, great breakdown with a spectacular drop.”
Alberto Ruiz – Haze
“Played by Joseph Capriatti, this track managed to enter the Top10 Techno in 2014, fresh techno with a lot of groove and FX, the purest Alberto’s style.”
Miguel Bastida – Moudness
“Our 10-year best-seller that conquered the planet reaching the Top 2, staying on the charts for more than 6 months, undoubtedly Bastida’s brand with this type of vocals and a dub-tech sound, with very fat subs.”
