am 21. september erscheint das neue, vierte villagers album the art of pretending to swim. nach der zurückgenommenen, intimen atmosphäre des vorgängers darling arythmetic (2015), auf dem sich die zeitlosen singles courage und everything i am is yours befanden, verfolgt das neue album ein vielschichtigeres, facettenreicheres konzept, wie man es schon von conor o’briens debütalbum becoming a jackal (2010) und dessen nachfolger {awayland} (2013) kennt. eine gute prise soul, ein intelligenter rhythmus und ein umwerfendes spektrum akustischer details, analog wie digital, erzeugen eine hoch emotionale stimmung mit überaus eingängigen melodien. fein austariert, mit raffinierten perspektiven und songtexten, die die existentiellen Ängste und hoffnungen in einem eher hoffnungslosen, dystopischen, von technik bestimmten zeitalter umarmen, ist the art of pretending to swim das bislang wohl am opulentesten ausgestattete und beschwingteste album von villagers. das album wurde von conor o’ brien in seinem studio in dublin geschrieben, produziert, gemischt und zu großen teilen auch eingespielt.
die schwarze heavyweight lp erscheint inklusive vierseitigem booklet und mp3-downloadkarte im klappcover.

fast-forward moving tracks with an engaging mesmeric sound.

a1 is a deeply psychotic acid death march into confusion, so minimal and primitive (kick, snare, acidsquelch) it will challenge every beard and armpit and might even hypnotize the dj to the point he cannot mix in the next one. a2 is a straight up commodore 64 sid track with mongoloid data elephants tooting over a wobbly and tarded electroish beat. b1 is a dystopic dreamy rave stomper, starting out kinda datacuddly but gets more and more serious, with choirs of fable mooers taking you into that virtual bad trip you need. b2 continues as expected with more c64 sid madness, so snary i cant even determine if its in 115 or 230bpm.

the 7th album from queens of the stone age on double vinyl with etching on side d.

green village is a label operating out of jersey city that deals in all manner of sounds from rugged house to scuffed up techno, but with a distinct bent towards broken rhythms and plenty of bass. this various artists 12- plies a diverse trade, with all tracks bound together by their ruffness. theft & toyc bring some loud and lurid bass synths to their snaking slice of oddball club music -atlantic-, while bd1982 places focus on dense layers of choppy drums and needlepoint acid arpeggios. eighth ruin delivers a truly head turning beat with the appropriately named -whip-, and then etch pays tribute to a classic movie with the excellent breakbeat science of -predator-.

in his debut album *villa / 11 rooms* florentin berger-monit aka toju kae wants to take us on a journey through his world and creates eleven unique, fantastic soundscapes, so intriguing and haunting that they will make you listen to the album again and again. in this concept album toju kae carries us through 11 very detailed and rich, but at the same time never overloaded tracks that perfectly showcase his proficient producer skills and his attention for detail.

echovolt records begins a new series of official re-issues, shining light on productions that formed the labels identity. first up is the underground nyc house smash give ya luv show ya luv by vil-n-x originally released on island noyze records back in 1992. two essential mixes from two highly sought after gems from the golden era of deep house remastered and pressed loud.

killer release on new yorks sequencias label. powerful and hypnotic chicago acid inspired cut on the a and a cool slow building chord driven track layered over raw drum rhythms on the b-side. recommended!! label promo text: sequencias does not stop, does not conform, takes no prisoners. our third release brings you a pair of artists from two different points along interstate 94, who have a reputation for the very same. so lets get to it. the main body laid down by villan x is tight metallic percussion underpinned by solid kicks and a stream of robotic filtered bass, containing unexpected shifts within the frequency register. foreboding tones and feelings drift towards us across which the disembodied voice of kold is able to find a platform from which to shudder into our consciousness and pose questions from across the galaxies about the nature of our very being. dcantu carries on the feelings of space, with protracted white noise shots and stabby modulated organ chords, but doesnt leave it long before setting the pace with solid drums and shifting keyboard funk aimed squarely your body and the dance floor as octave changes force you up and then down again to a backdrop thick with texture. this provides for the body and the mind. act fast though, sequencias does not like to rest.
