roberto rodriguez is a helsinki-based dj, producer, radio host and music director. having started making music at the age of 12 in 1987 and starting to dj a few years later, roberto can be called a true veteran. he has released over 50 original releases and 60 remixes including - now-classics like *ride with me*, *besomebody* and *oxymoron*. his vast catalog includes releases on labels such as compost, freerange, delusions of grandeur, room with a view, fina and eskimo. just to name a few.

with his hugely supported pw vinyl release still ringing gloriously in our ears, robsoul boss phil weeks returns with a brace of releases on the mothership and an exclusive taster from his upcoming artists album due later this year. today we bring you the first of those eps, lead by the track from phils as yet untitled long-player. *a man needs a woman* is musical sunshine. stirring strings, warm bass and touching vocal riffs, all filtered to perfection by the frenchman. from the fresh open-air sounds of the title track to the rhythms of the club with *where did the night go*. this sweet sensation is a drum-laden weeks special. *i can make you dance* rounds out the ep. a snare driven, hypnotic and bubbling tool, for the discerning dj.

despite refusing to stick to a single genre, deft is one of those immediately recognisable producers, which is nice because it means we dont have to waste any time comparing him to anyone else. 2013 saw the croydon man skilfully hopping from headphone to dance styles, often within a track, his signature blend of cinematic soundscapes and crisp, intricate percussion covering hip-hop, house, and ambient. whats more, his noteworthy contributions to the burgeoning uk footwork scene means the young producer can now count mark pritchard, dj shadow and rockwell among his biggest fans, and boy does this boy have fans, check this bandcamp review of his project mooncircle ep voight kampff: anything this magician puts out has a pretty good chance of getting you pregnant right in the good old music hole. says it all really

nebraska is someone who’s tracks we’ve been loving for a good few years now and finally managed to pin him down for a release here on delusions of grandeur. the uk producer is something of an enigma, and despite some amazing releases on rush hour still remains resolutely underground and seems to keep his releases to a minimum, focusing on keeping the quality high rather than flooding the market with average material. once again, he brings the real deal with three drum-heavy warehouse jams to nice-up the dancefloor. aw-right (mute version) sets the tone with a raw house groove that keeps things stripped to the bare minimum. a bouncing bassline and rattling percussion break help to define the track but it’s the dusty, dubby approach to the mix which really makes the track shine. next up we have warp and weft, a similar sounding track but by dropping the bpm’s nebraska has created a sublime low-slung, bumpy groove to really move to. flipping over we’re treated to the brilliant eighty eights which will have you nodding your head like the churchill’s dog before you can say ‘looped up piano and bass one bar groove repeated for over eight and a half minutes shouldn’t work should it?’

supported by ben klock, dvs1, marcel fengler, minilogue, joel mull, claude young, roman lindau, dustin zahn, speedy j, paul mac, alan fitzpatrick, laurent garnier and many more. we are very proud to present ray kajioka’s debut album “en route”. most of the album was premiered in rays live-set during our 20 years of kanzleramt celebration at berghain. others have been shaped and tested over 10 years to find the right frame to release on an album. our mastering engineer, who is recovering from surgery, said >the album is very therapeutic< and >the work on rays album helped me heal<. this is proof to us, that rays magic on >en route< can uplift your soul, especially in spring.

organic textures, hypnotism and melancholy feature heavily in marino s sound and are once again evident in the percolate ep. as its name suggests, the title track bubbles with dancefloor tension whilst its tight groove never quite reaches boiling point. can t feel, on the flip, is more of the same. deep, atmospheric and understated, a perfect example of marino s blossom talent.

vectors 2 introduces another five new artists to the power vacuum roster: side one erupts with vacated, flinging heavyweight techno ingot *quadrat* neatly into ones medulla oblongata. a road tested club shredder, crashing straight in and out while unequivocally touching the sides. one of uk dance musics true mammoths jerome hill promptly receives the baton and lays down atypical workout *plastic jam*, an overbearingly energetic percussion / vocal rinse. on the other side, cosmic event cylob weighs in with *spyworld*. libidinal bass patterns, irresistible melodies and not a wasted note from one of electros most powerful minds. breakaway civilization of one: anklepants follows with *y.h.i.y.p.* after receiving a free bintus makeover - electro style. finally cornwallis spoken word effluvium *at the disco*, a charmingly rancid personal account to which the prancing oaf in each of us can surely relate.

dark applies to ultimate freedom and what better can support freedom than techno? marco bailey knows that and he strikes back on his mbr limited imprint with his new production nyctophilia, coming up with a remix by the one and only emmanuel.

dj and producer born in tunisia and now based in boras, sweden. he s released on a handful of labels including nice & nasty, quadrant, soul people, selekta, next dimension and division x. his last release on minimalsoul entitled echoes of a revolution went on to get a great review in de:bug magazine and sparked his return to minimalsoul. mourad now deliveres (5) astonishing mediterranean flavored tracks to minimalsoul. all tracks have their own flavor and can stand on their own in a listening or dance environment. we d like to point out the undeniable innovative track produced alongside aaron-carl ragland, better known simply as aaron-carl, who was the founder of the detroit-based wallshaker music & w.a.r.m.t.h. international inc.. tacotac ep is fueled with a great sense of emotion and feeling and will be an outstanding gem to any record collection. in memory of aaron-carl ragland (august 19, 1973 n september 30, 2010) your music will always be with us!

for the nineth offering on public possession anton klint returns with another highly danceable two track ep. save yourself some time and have drunch, is what is suggested on a sticker gracing the cover. this dictum can be interpreted in various ways, but one thing is for sure, if you buy this record - you will have at least two tracks that will help you control the dancefloor with ease any given night

hip-hop, jazz, verrauchter soul und groovender detroit-house: debütalbum des dänischen djs und produzenten.

one can only see cleary with the heart. essence is invisible to the naked eye. clash of the titans: 2 south-hessian music biz legends teamed up in 95, long before they had the slightest idea of what life would have in store for them. unreleased, mysterious, rough & oldschool rave adventures… these are the original tracks taken from a dusty & long forgotten dat. remastered by lopazz in 2015. love from all of us.

the mainz based label klamauk° are very proud to announce the upcoming release of the debut lp by roman rauch, which will be dropping on vinyl and digital in march 2015. romans pedigree as a producer is second to none and he has enjoyed long term collaborations with labels such as philpot, endless flight and also klamauk°. his focus has always been on dusty samples, slowed down grooves and weighty rhythm sections and his first excursion into the longplayer format is a tour de force. the 7 track (+ 3 fx shorts) mini lp draws on romans influences ranging from cut­up hip hop, years of digging for samples and also more dancefloor tendencies. roman weaves his way from slow­mo, broken beat excursions to more heads down deep house music that has equal levels of groove and intensity.

theres no doubt that the apollonia trio are on fire, 2014 has been a whirlwind of berlin studio production, to reigning in ibiza, to dropping their debut album tour à tour to a rapturous reception. but straight back to the label with a new ep, they proudly present breaking talent diego krause. hailing from east berlin, krause already caused a stir amongst the heads with releases on his own label unison wax and co-owned beste modus, unison wax 02 swiftly landing itself a 4/5 on resident advisor and pricking up the ears of the apollonia boys. serving up three quality tracks very much in-keeping with apollonias own sound, you can easily imagine any one fitting perfectly into the later hours of their b2b2b sets. * right about now* establishes its presence with a powerful bassline and solid clap, before deep swirling synths enter, as does an echoing xylophone to truly euphoric effect. the slightly eerie, but mostly intoxicating, * dreams* brings a subtle groove and conjures up those early morning moments, while * manitu* the most peak-team of the three, is a bouncy number full of positive energy and a strong tech-house edge, that will go down a treat on any dancefloor

our next big release at bad barbie, going out on digital and 12 inch, comes by the hand of aldo cadiz itself, but this time partnered with kareem cali. these two made a fantastic three track ep called monita ep. the first track monita presents a solid base created with a classic tech style and an extremely groovy bass line. full of small arrangements and a crazy vocal line, this tracks its perfect for any club dj. the second track bonita, is the one with the more old school vibe, from the bass line to the main acid synth, which goes evolving softly with a filter during the track to generate the needed tension. all this with a strong tech groove to follow the step of this solid ambience created by the acid synths. the last track moni, also has many techno and acid elements presents. we can perceive the techno soul mainly on the arrangement of the hi-hats and bass line, but the acid synth in triplet at the backend is what generates the crazy vibe and almost hypnotic feeling during the track, playing around with the volume of it. definitely a fantastic release to add to any collection.

as part of longstanding no wave duo naked on the vague, murky girl group knitted abyss and extraterrestrial drone project half high, lucy phelan has been a critical force in the sydney diy scene for over 10 years. under the solo veil of lucy cliche, she annihilates with these four wavey techno tracks that honour her noise and punk ethos. with pounding drum sequences, draining synths and emotionless vocals echoing cosey fanni tutti, her dark dreams sabotage our calculations of modern dance while demonstrating how physicality and the ethereal can interact.

do you know what genre this is? do you know whos going to play this record? do you know at what time in which club? if you knew, would it sound any different? would it make you feel any different? heres a thought: what if this release was made just for you? what if you realise, as you put the needle to the groove, that this is your music? you can share it with your friends, and strangers will talk about it like it was theirs, but deep inside youll know: this was made for yoursel

after his first ep for l.i.e.s. last year, tzusing is back with his impeccably produced style of industrial and ebm influenced machine grinding cuts.
the tracks on this ep represent the climate of clubbing yesteryear when it was normal for djs to play such things as ministry, front 242, or nitzer ebb next to a disco track next to a breakbeat track and so forth and to say these tracks could be heard somewhere like medusas would not be off base. driving, engaging and downright gnarly we can only hope these sounds foreshadow things opening back up on the floor as time pushs forward.

excellent deep house dbl header <br riding on the back of a surge of interest in de la club, the debut lp from hold youth, comes a smartly picked repress of house don nail. while the duo is known for their eclectic vision of dance music, the first repress on the label ive been there ep is in fact an exemplary example of straight-up, no-fuss house. enjoying a modest comeback of late both as a producer and dj, nail originally released full of beestone promise ep on diy discs in 97. the stronger two of the four tracks will be repressed one on each side, * our love* and * i ve been there*, distinctive for its melodic vocal and recent inclusion in the apollonia fabric 70 compilation. while we have become accustomed to hold youth’s diversification of sounds with the current lp, i ve been there reminds us that a pigeon-holable classic can be highly refreshing

this 10 inch contains 2 unreleased vinyl versions in extended mixes that can make your day. the merits of van bonns releases on telrae, trapez and on van bonn records you can find in his new release -unbound-. the attractiveness of repetition has made its way into this ep... and it was a good choice. we kick off with -king-, a track which is a cross breed of a stubborn beat and a dub techno feeling showcasing a melodic intermezzi that flies in and out with a mind of its own. more minimalistic than most of the tracks you know from him, it includes unexpected half baked sounds you would not expect from van bonn. on the other hand the epic 10 minute monster -distinct- is a real dub techno giant and a soundtrack at the same time... with beats that take you by the hand.

möd3rn is a global project from 3 wellknown artists who wanted to give a side project from their own solo career. it s a band, producing, playing live but it s also a label created only for the trio productions. each releases will propose 3 tracks from the 3 artists. for that first one the famous trio propose 3 huges bombs mö4, mö5 and mö6, 3 huge techno killer using rough skins with raw edit. speech less and listen to that we can call pure techno. while carefully handling their respective careers, postponing then their obvious collaboration, möd3rn trio s members have capitalized its desire and now deliver its mere substance, in the rightest moment, where, simply, all the distant forces converge. the six daring, expert hands merge now into a unique entity, unanimously moving within the same effort towards techno music. of the distinct identities merely remains the ethereal, synthetic essence devoted to the group, and the common musical passion that leads it. the formula is elaborated freely: each one s adjunctions -subtle keys, nervous chords, underground blows, rhythmical uproars- pour into a thick maelstrom, opaque, condensing detroit s grieving sensibilities as well as last decade s bewildering cacophonies. the potion obtained is irresistible, an ecstatic hybrid, prodigiously actual, that renders all the genre s diversity and dynamism. chance intertwined their paths and now the three companions celebrate both the friendship that resulted and the good fortune that has driven it, by improvising live together as one faceless, solid body agitated by the urge of dance and music, composing the material that shall be processed later on to form their eponym label s releases.

san francisco-based dj/producer nick monaco has long been part of the soul clap family, releasing his first 12- on the label back in 2012. mating call, a double 12- set running at album length, is easily his most expansive release yet. it s typically eccentric, delivering a range of songs - featuring his own distinctive vocals - that blend numerous styles whilst retaining a loose, funky and altogether rather kaleidoscopic feel. it s rooted in balearic pop, but also touches on dub, deep house, boogie, dub disco and a strangely deep and contemporary take on the triple-beat rhythms of glam rock. it s hard to accurately describe, but is really rather good, certainly, it s one of soul clap s strongest releases of recent times.

after the first collaboration on samuel deep s native tribe ep, these infamous jungle brothers decided to do a full ep together. when together they go by ingi visions and have a unique heavy underground sound made for dancefloor destruction. the -get slapped- ep features two solo tracks as well wich really represents their own styles. u can expect a lot more music from the brothers in the future

lay-far s critically acclaimed debut album -so many ways- which took him worldwide gets a friendly treatment from the global music family! in the first installment of the remix series we have artistic versions from atjazz, inkswel, jonny miller and thatmanmonkz! martin iveson kicks off the ep with a masterpiece of a remix for one of the highlights of the album - electronic ballad -stand up- featuring pete simpson. when the strings come in you realize - it s atjazz at his best - conscious boogie for the soul! we believe it may easily become future classics! inkswel s version of -when i m seeing you- is soaked in the warm sound of distorted drum machines and tape delays. be warned - this heavy-hitter can actually damage your speakers! the b-side opens with the deep and sophisticated afro house of jonny miller whose remix of -summer vacation- immediately teleports you to the open air party in the adriatic sea coast. last but not the least we have sheffield s own thatmanmonkz revisiting -that dream-. inspired heavily by classic blaxploitation movies, shadeleaf music label boss comes up with a dynamic soundtrack for the imaginary chase scene. badass!

elektra release of charlotte gainsbourgs third studio album titled irm. the title is derived from m.r.i, which reflects the medical procedure charlotte had to go through after suffering a head injury in a water skiing accident in 2007. the album is charlottes most personal to date, and is produced by acclaimed grammy nominated artist/multi-instrumentalist beck. what started as a brief recording session between charlotte gainsbourg and beck ended up to be the body of work that is irm. over the course of a year and a half of writing and recording together, becks role grew to encompass all aspects of the creative process. he worked seamlessly with charlotte co writing the lyrics and produced and mixed the recording. (this is the first time he has ever been so involved in another artists work.)

if you re going to have an experience, it might as well be a luxury one. lux experience is a mysterious norwegian producer, who presents us with a selection of steamy late night disco re-edits dripping in luxury, trawling his vinyl collection for the choicest sample material. the shimmering disco boogie of doin it is a tribute to one of norway s longest living club nights, dance dance dance is a cover, not an edit, of the classy chic classic and finally u cant hide is a vintage vocal disco gem.

opening up with the deep space atmospherics of quiet life the album immediately transports you to another world. the title track is then a melodically lush and uplifting affair with curious synth patterns ebbing and flowing beneath crisp percussion. tracks like we search for answers combine organic, wooden textures with more synthetic and trippy synth sounds that are as far away from your standard sample packs as can be imagined. across the course of the album there are dark, moody and emotive pieces like worship (previously released in extended form on the mdl02 single) featuring qzen who reads a poem by patience agbabi in tantalising fashion as well as heavyweight, dubbed out techno groovers like shadow theory. make it true (of which seth troxler will be releasing an extended edit on his play it say it label, complete with high profile remixes) is another great collab featuring the vocals of jojo de freq, and the track itself is a harmonious, radiant house jam that is humid and human in equal measure. the otherworldly, snaking feel free again showcases berkson & what s ability to coax alluring emotions out of their machines and closer logan five wraps things up in suitably spangled, textural fashion. despite the fact much of this album will work on a dancefloor in the hands of the right dj, there s an invention and musicality to it that renders the whole thing hugely listenable away from the club. a testament to berkson & what s analogue invention and fluid ideas, keep up appearances really is a master electronic oeuvre.

pukemaster gehm kicks four uncompromising and banging acid tracks where you can feel his pure love for his partner in crime, the 303. stomping basslines, twirling and chirping 303 sounds, jerking hihats and hypnotic claps all over here. pukemaster gehm know what the crowd wants.... dancing, sweating, screaming. comes on juicy pink vinyl.

the ep name is dry wet - it s about these moments of life that we all share. a moment, we can cry, smile, lough and love. this feeling that the drought is over.
