incl remixes by pedro and max graef

repress without 7 inch! five guys jamming together, each throwing in funk-nuggets from a finely honed appreciation & a shared love of the good groove. this studio project was compiled from a free-wheeling desire to just team up and play together, see what happens... the holy trinity of rhodes, clav and live bass, all wrapped up in a heavyweight rhythm section has provided the backbone to over 50 years of ground-breaking and floor-shaking black american music. the max graef band project channels this energy with the tight efficiency of the headhunters tag-teaming the new power generation, oh yeah - anyone expecting elbow patch, 6th form funk can think again, this is mosquito’s tweeter territory folks. from raw, p-funkin jams to punk-funk workouts & freestyle jazz flavours, dog pays homage and wears its influences proudly, while bringing a fresh take on the foundation funk that informs this collective’s own celebrated sample-house revival.

four years after his breakthrough, max graef returns to tartelet records with his second solo album, “lo siento mucho pero no hablo tu idioma”. a dungeon dub symphony in four parts, “lo siento mucho pero no hablo tu idioma” is an album’s album. brimming with new and old guests, interludes and bonus skits, it’s a consummate sketchbook of graef’s most unique music to date. “every bit of music or work represents the mood and skills of a certain period,” he says.

after a handful of singles that instantly became favourites for djs including bicep, scuba and laurent garnier, london-duo athlete whippet deliver their 12” debut. “hands only” is a balmy, nonchalant yet carefully crafted house gem incorporating striking live performance.
the record was welcomed with open arms by key tastemakers such as xlr8r (“shimmering and seductive”), resident advisor and complex (“heaven sent for djs”). taking on board fellow producers max graef and seb wildblood, “hands only” is a refreshing and effortless 5-tracker following their recent release on exploited records.

ltd repress !! this special one off collaboration sees young gun native berliner prodigy max graef, coupled with globe trotter fantastic man aka mic newman. with mic living in max s broom cupboard for a few vodka soaked weeks in berlin this autumn, there was a beautiful inevitability that some music would outcome. the lead track -soothe me- is no noodly shrinking violet, but a grade 10-cross-genre-dance-floor-destroyer which andy snapped up for label on first listen. clearly taking it s inspiration from the rhodes and sample drenched sound signature detroit label and adding in live instrumentation, tape effects, for a track rich in steely dan sensibility, coupled with a sub bass and twisted lead line dragging us into a new year. the b-side relaxin at the flip is a raw slab of analogue goodness, flying 606 high hats, a tough kick drum and simple elements driving the track forwards, best heard 8am in a dark corner of a club.
