VARIOUS — Campana 002

Various – Campana 002 opens a new chapter for Campana records, catalogued as CMPN002, on 12-inch vinyl. The EP gathers four distinct cuts that navigate progressive house, techno-house and trance-house, each designed to sustain momentum on the late-night dancefloor. With a strong Brazilian visual identity crafted by Flo Massé and designer Daniel Oliveira, the release signals the label’s continued commitment to emotive yet driving club music. Within Campana records’ short catalogue, Campana 002 follows the earlier CMPN001 “Campana EP” by Villaça and Trajano (2025). That debut set the tone for the label’s blend of deep grooves and peak-time intensity; the new EP expands this palette by introducing Flo Massé’s first appearance on vinyl and a fresh reinterpretation from Lamalice, while the label’s founders return on the B-side. Side A begins with “Saudade” by Flo Massé, an emotional progressive house anthem that balances melodic depth with kinetic energy, ideal for building tension in the early hours. The second cut, “Saudade (Lamalice Feitiço Remix)”, offers a deeper take on the original, stripping back some of the brightness while preserving the core groove, providing DJs with a darker, more hypnotic option that sits naturally after the opener. Together, the two A-side tracks frame a narrative from uplifting ascent to introspective descent. Side B shifts the focus to the label’s founders. “Ogum” by Trajano delivers a monster techno/trance peak-time track, hard-hitting yet groovy and intelligent, suited for the climactic moments of a set where momentum must be maximised. Closing the EP, “Patuá” by Villaça presents a deep and funky progressive tool, its versatile feel allowing it to bridge both peak and after-hours moments across varied dancefloors. In the context of Campana records’ evolving output, this EP demonstrates the label’s capacity to host both emotive progressive statements and kinetic techno/trance assaults, reinforcing its Brazilian roots while reaching an international club audience. The inclusion of Flo Massé’s debut vinyl appearance and Lamalice’s first contribution underscores the label’s role in nurturing emerging voices alongside its founders. For DJs, the record offers clear utility: “Saudade” works as a melodic opener or a late-night uplift; the Lamalice remix provides a darker, more driving alternative for transitions; “Ogum” is a peak-time weapon capable of commanding the main floor; and “Patuá” functions as a versatile bridge, adaptable to both deep-house and progressive sets. Collectors will appreciate the cohesive yet varied programming and the visual homage to Brazilian culture that ties the release together. The physical format is a 12-inch vinyl, presenting the four tracks in a straightforward, DJ-friendly layout that respects the traditional sequencing of A-side and B-side dynamics.
