we re really excited to be able to put one of our favourite ever wotnot releases to wax. it s a release that makes us particularly proud as we convinced k15 to let one of his house tracks out of the archive for the first time ever, as well as securing one of the few tracks to have been heard from up-and-coming wunderkind glenn kelly (jeeks), before he retired early from the circuit. four years after it dropped digitally, featured artists k15 and imyrmind have become household names, releasing music with eglo, wild oats, tartelet and money $ex records among others. this re-release also includes a new track from sexruleseverything who also featured on the original release. the tracks on this ep still stand strong, and the vinyl drops alongside the release of dancefloor sweets vol. 2, with more to come in 2017.

with the shortly arriving compilation continue, the still young label ourselves is already entering the second round. after their kick-off had already unmistakeably proven likewise, also their following release prides itself with multifarious house music. the entry into this musical journey is given by a collaboration between the two leipzig producers ranko and lootbeg. in their work, classical drums are meeting warm house chords, accompanied by a driving acid line and riddled with catchy soul vocals, which, parcelled into modern breaks, will most certainly set more than one hip swinging. a clear case of girl voucher. the second track of the release is contributed by berlin artist perel. in usual fashion, clearly harder drums meet a driving and floating groove here, which has without a doubt been produced for dancefloor usage. adding the massive bassline and the unmistakeably demanding vocal, we end up having a massive tune with raw warehouse character. i want my money back! the opening of the flipside comes from our good friend braunbeck. holy, a hypnotically-tinted tune dominated by percussion convinces with his irresistible urge forward and his ever catchy groove, which truly never seems to lose its dynamism. a true monster. the perfect finishing touch is added by filburt personally. the chief of motherlabel o*rs surprises with a track full of cosy atmosphere and spacy vocals. carried by a multitude of synthie sounds, this tune sure is the perfect choice for every set and afterhour. always towards the rising sun!

a pivotal moment in 20th century politics, history and culture the november 22nd 1963 assassination of president john f. kennedy (in dallas, texas) produced a mountainous range of forgotten, discarded and ghostly vinyl artifacts. country songs, private-press lamentations, mournful poetry and violent political diatribes were rushed onto rough-hewn 45s and marginal lps that vied to be heard above the noise and confusion.

3 perfect number. here is the third release on vinyl for finish team records with manu p & gecky, gabriele orsini, aumrec & riccardo catria. 4 tracks really hot. on the a side we have manu p & gecky with their track finally dance, a super electronic synth characterized all the track and huge bass gives it the perfect way to stay in the middle of the dan floor. gabriele orsini with mongoose is the second track on the a side. deep music form him. on the b side there are riccardo catria and aumrec with 2 track, one recorded live at the conservatory by riccardo and one more techno for aumrec. that’s it. be finish, be part of the family!

ela mandou esperar’ is a stomping, soulful brazilian funk taken from cassiano’s sought after ’imagem e som’ lp from 1971. a big hint of northern soul to this one to!

her beauty too radiant to be beheld. stark and striking, at once an object of desire and lust. carved by the hand of a king, brought to life by the gods, hers is a story now captured in modern day ivory, vinyl. her image, one that embodies earth and heaven, now marries two worlds, eastern atmospherics and western aromatics. like the first glimpse of the fabled temptress, these first sounds of galatea will never to be forgotten.

soul jazz records’ new nigeria soul fever is their first release to explore the vast wealth of nigerian music recorded in the 1970s. the new album comes with introductory sleevenotes by bill brewster (author of last night a dj saved my life).
packed-full with afro-funk, disco and boogie all from nigeria, this triple album set brings together a stunning collection of diverse west african sounds. whilst a small handful of the artists featured (joni haastrup, tee mac, christy essien) have seen the light of day outside africa, this is essentially a collection of killer tracks by an array of artists completely unknown outside of nigeria.

good times, bad friends

our total compilation series hardly needs an introduction: we rummage through the kompakt releases to select our favorites from the past year that reflect our best and unsaid tracks, compiled and packaged as a cohesive whole.

‘tis time to travel the the trail to the third turnout that we left there for you in the gloom. so let’s not waste any more words (and “t” letters) and get into it.

dirt fishing is the follow-up to ‘slag heap’ nrv001 (a split 12” made up of sounds recorded in a slate mine). this time it comprises of recorded sounds encountered during a day of metal detecting on walthamstow marshes. the recordings include the direct output from the proximity sensor on the metal detector, ambient eld recordings from the environment, conversations with friend and fellow dirt sher, glen, and separate sounds recorded by knocking, tapping and rubbing the found items.

wade from hello records called mr. pc “detroit’s hardest working dj” about a year back, and the fruits of his labor shine through on this curious beatdown and jazz funk re-edit record. in his own words, “the scene doesn’t need another hand-stamped and numbered vinyl-only disco edit label, so i went ahead and took the proverbial razor and tape to some jazz-fusion-disco-not-disco tracks that influenced me coming up as a bass player, now fully capable for dj dance floor elevation.”
limited to 450 hand-stamped and numbered copies.

out electronic recordings introduces the second installment of different seasons various artists series after kicking off the first one with tracks from fabrizio lapiana, regen, civilian and limo back in january 2015. out-er sets ‘different seasons vol.2’ as the twenty-first vinyl release on its way – as the first volume, the record embraces melodic techno tracks and introduces new and old faces to the roster. on a side attic music boss fabrizio lapiana appears on out-er again offering ‘square’, then the experienced dj luciano esse offers ‘the call’ following to his very first ‘the green ep’ released on the italian label back in 2012. flipping the record over on b side and lachriz’ comeback on out-er sees the debut of his moniker ‘farron’ with the ethereal cut ‘travelling through your mind’ – while the newest artist on board hydergine provides a dub techno journey opting for a swinging, fresh piece typical of his production imprint.

it has been a while since we put out the first record on our * van doumen* sublabel. but the time has come to do it once again. it features surprisingly well-known artists for doumen standards, such as nyc prodigy photay, psychedelic la beatmaker ras g, studio barnhuis darling kornél kovács and leipzig legend leibniz. all are remixing original doumen releases. so i guess your are old enough to decide for yourself if you find that interesting.

outta sight setzt seine serie mit lp-samplern zu legendären northern soul-clubs fort. diesmal wird das central drive in blackpool und seine kult-djs ian levine und colin curtis mit 13 legendären northern soul-tracks aus der hochphase des clubs zwischen 1971-1979 geehrt. mit ausführlichen liner notes von ian levine.

this one has been in the making for a loooong time and we do believe you will agree it was worth the wait. tj kong has been releasing some serious vocal house masterpieces over the past year on compost and other labels of fame, so it was only a matter of time before they ended up on wph. when it comes to vocals few do it better than gustaph, the belgian lead vocalist of hercules & love affair and a close friend of the wph family. inside story: gustaph provided non-credited (but paid) backing vocals for fcl’s ‘it’s you’ stormer. with tj kong gustaph takes up the role of both lyrics writer and vocalist and does so to devastating effect in absolute perfect unison with the track provided by tj kong & modular k. it’s classic but very very fresh. on the flipside tj kong & modular k team up with french wonderboy art of tones aka llorca for a trip into house music stabs & strings bliss. if the dream is always the same, we do hope this is the one you are re-dreaming. wph ten-3, niceness to the max!

the first compilation on the dresden based label shtum unites three label regulars and one newbie with four tracks suitable for rampant basements. -motorcity racers- has been on rotation for quite some time amongst the label heads and is the first sign from poland s chino on shtum. it floats somewhere between dirty detroit and the rough corners of the netherlands. leibniz delivers the -real life-, a relatively straight follow-up to his latest ep, while jaures hit their drum machines like there is no tomorrow. perm s cut is all loopy and succeeds in creating an irresistible atmosphere with just a few elements. the artwork comes courtesy of carl-johannes schulze.

four tracks of diverse and different techno make up deep sound channel s first compilation. past alumnus tripeo returns with the hulking tribalism of -raz.- breaks are built and rebuilt, demolished and razed in this gritty thumping workout. najem sworb, of clone and ai fame, is up next with the warbling atmospherics of -io ice- before matt tdk delivers the frigid and frosted -4714.- the finale is a smouldering sign off. jelle groen, under his modular scapes alias, serves a brooding acid infused piece bathed in 90s idm flows. limited to 250 coloured copies in a printed sleeve.

tollkühne begegnungsplatte, die keine grenzen kennt.

original motion picture soundtrack from the 1986 movie “top gun”.

africa is not a country. we in the west often refer to african music but what is that exactly? it could be myriad, almost unimaginably different forms of music that bear little relation to each other, as after all africa is a vast continent that is larger than the united states, australia and the whole of europe combined. these four tracks showcase some of those different forms of music from across the continent. there is some cosmic synth drenched proto-house, an afro-beat call to arms, a hypnotic juju workout and a rough and ready, relentless lo fi west african banger. all proceeds will go to human rights justice group, nigeria.

a-side opens with a post-apocalyptic anthem, which makes you want to sniff glue until all worlds break down. followed by sirvan, a hypnotic, self-reflective rat catcher - vocal house is back. changing sides brings you rufex, which initially takes you back to dubby berlin times, but ends up with rumbling witches playing their boneshaking rattles. mattlack rounds it up with a messy, synth-stabbing ravelifter - for doormen only!

ad rvina imperii is the first chapter of a series of various artists compilations co-produced by kapvt mvndi (blackwater) with love blast records and stirpe 999 anti label. heavy anologue and modular-based techno with industrial and drone flavors on this impressive debut ep featuring the work of fire at work, somatic responses and luciano lamanna.

low-down and dirty jazz goes right back to the early 1900s in storyville, after the bands had played their hot tunes in the evening for dancing couples, the musicians would head off to the after-hours joints and play a less energetic but more bluesy kind of music, enabling them and their late-night audiences to get through to the early hours of the morning without suffering total exhaustion. and nobody in new orleans laid into the blues so low down and dirty as buddy bolden, whose funky butt became a staple in the repertoire of the citys early jazz bands.
jacksonville, florida, 1960. charles hungry williams mentors young clayton fillyau after he had just joined the james brown band: *i dont care where you put it on those drums, remember where 1 is and you ll never lose the time. listen to hungry on huey smiths *talk to me baby* and then listen to how clayton turns it into a relentless breakbeat on james browns *i ve got money*. earl kings *trick bag*, prefiguring the meters, is as good an example of early new orleans funk as can be found.

the second vinyl release of the young electronic label supermoll from cologne. rooted somewhere between a sound of cologne legacy, german experimental kraut attitudes and dirty acid vibes from oversea
