sys are three nijmegen based producers with different backgrounds, but with the same great view on music, delivering underground techno/dub with great sounddesign, slow tension building drum-patterns and off-beat rhythms. nocturnal is a deep pulsating rhythm with some nice dubbed out chord elements building slowly until the drumbreak hits and lifts the track to a higher level.monocle is about a steady irresistable groove instead of building to a climax. loose yourself in its simplicity and get sucked in by the slick sounddesign happening in the background.on the flip norman nodge delivers a great acidic remix perfect for warm up sets, peaktime dancefloor action or early morning moments.nice one again on eshu!

total control dislocate expectations with this inaugural home loan records 12 inch. not the charged up paranoid vox/guitar/drums combo that we have become accustomed to through their visceral live shows - instead men with machines producing pensive proto-tech experiments and tense industrial wave. includes the original version of carpet rash which was re-recorded in full band mode for henge beat, and two previously unreleased immersive rhythm tracks formed through collaboration between guitarist mikey young and drummer james vinciguerra. vinciguerra would fire deranged beats down the hole while young would jam over them, watching waves in a trance from his perch at phillip island. on the flip we find two reconstructions from home loan manager michael ozone. carpet rash receives the club re-contextualisation with ozone fully utilising its penetrating synth hook, while new age hop climbs the arabic scale.

nicole willis & the soul investigators are back with a brand new single on 7 inch vinyl.
>tell me when (we can start our love thing once again)< b/w >it s all because of you< is the simmering first double-side single from their upcoming lp >tortured soul<, set for release on helsinki-based timmion records, in early 2013. on their sophomore effort nicole and the soul investigators signature soul sound is clearly audible, but it also unearths rhythm & blues tainted licks and the pleas of unrequited love.

>blurry< runs at 133bpm allowing it to sit neatly between dubstep tempo and the increasingly popular 125-130 bpm bass / house scene that has been developing in the uk over the last couple of years. taking things down an ongy-bongy path, this rhythm provides the soundtrack to a hunter chasing his prey through a humid jungle landscape, with fast weaving beats charged heavy by the deadly subs. the heat is on.
>spearhead< sees roska making a rare 140bpm trip, taking this rhythmical excursion neatly into dubstep tempo territory, creating an original cut which sits in its own world of tribal grime. the bassline pounds heavy, eventually rising upward before suddenly plummeting back down to the murky depths from where it came, and back round again. dis-hyeer quality dubstep music produced pon the other side of the looking glass.

having hibernated over the past few months, truesoul is back with a run of releases to close out 2012. the italian duo of frankyeffe and enrico sangiuliano kick things off, combining to deliver two smooth cuts that straddle the divide between house and tech house. >consciousness< works up an atmospheric mood with spacey effects and the spoken vocal sample woven into a rolling, percussive groove. >neaps< retains the percussive feel to create a bumping rhythm of drops and builds that provide the space for the distinctive vocals to do their damage.

so you didnt get that last firecracker that came in an incredible sleeve and was limited to 45 copies? well now you and the other 99% of humanity can at least own the music contained within it with this regular re-release, and to be honest although the sleeve isnt hand-weaved by a peruvian tribe centuries known for their mastery of textile craft, the one yer getting here is pretty goddamn sweet. bringing together calypso rhythms and bernie worrell-does-acid lines, fudge fingas >untytled< is an exemplary example of why everyone is in admiration of the geezer, and that is because he can actually make actual music, with compositions and melody and all that. excuse the lofty jargon. linkwood bring equal heat in the form of >secret value<, but guess what? fudge fingas has gone and blessed it with the refreshing audio equivalent of yer girlfriends mint & tea tree shower gel, adding liquid bass and lush keys. the fingas finishes off the e.p with one of his most interesting tracks to date >minus 616<, a dense, immersive piano piece that proves that getting this e.p out to a wider audience was just simply a righteous and necessary move. take that skinny tie off, wrap it round yer arm and mainline that uncut funk, baby.

nice price deal !!! to the previously uninitiated, welcome to the world of reso. for the familiar, welcome to >tangram<. since the latter half of the last decade, alex melia aka reso has been blending heightened technological futurism with dancefloor prowess to create a densely cinematic musical universe. >tangram< is the much anticipated release of resos debut long player, a landmark thirteen track odyssey that reaffirms the place of the album within modern electronic music.
double 12 inch vinyl release, includes code for free mp3 download of the full album.

mowar enters autumn with the 2nd instalment of deep floors, once again exploring the deeper grooves of techno. first up is ohios fbk, whose first release already goes back to 1996 on the legendary frictional records. with she brought me there fbk opens the dance with a solid deep dancefloor groover, driven by a hypnotic hook and infectious chords. stripped down and yet full of atmosphere. after that uks tom dicicco and italys roberto bosco team up to deliver all dem, another stripped affair with rolling drums and chord stabs, a solid blend of deep hypnotic layers of groove. on the flipside we find spains aiken with a strong detroit-infused workout, in-your-face kick drums, jacking rhythms and dramatic strings. your turntables will love it. last but not least, a new belgian upcoming producer stevie p delivers a dubbed out functional deep techno track with hip-sensitive chord stabs and a fiercely throbbing rhythm.

nice price deal !!! prism studied drums under vance gordan specialising in afro cuban rhythms and the moeller technique prior to venturing into music production. after becoming more intrigued by the intricate likeness of all societies, cultures and religions, prism was created with a deeper purpose. not only to showcase these influences but to convey an awareness that all things no matter how different they may appear in physical form, are all the same. having an ear for deep jazzy tunes and being hugely influenced by the early metalheadz era, prism continues this sound in his selection of music playing vinyl and unreleased dubs from all around the world. always in tune with the roots of what started both dubstep and drum and bass, prisms selection rarely strays away from raw, emotional bass music but contains something for everyone which will insure a good time for all who catches one of his sets

for signal life #03, we teamed up two young vigorous south londoners: mr. louis carnell, known by his moniker visionist, and mr. marco giuliani, who works under the alias last japan. >control this< by visionist combines his background in south london grime with his signature drum machine template and lo-fi vocal excerpts into a coherent mesh. our favourite visionist track to date! when we first heard >storm trooper< by last japan, it was the tension we got caught up in. the song is focused with a clear direction, uncommon in most young talent, armed with a driving snare-fill rhythm reminiscent of south rap and all that exiting stuff in the 160 bpm. i believe murky is the correct term. we predict interesting things for mr. giuliani.

with his second release for planet mu this year, >dream on< is more of a full-length outing for ital aka daniel martin-mccormick and a much more substantial record than the popular and critically acclaimed >hive mind<.
on >dream on< ital takes his experimentation with house and techno forms even further, creating impressionistic deconstructions from the tropes of early house and techno. sunny chords, laid back drum shuffle and rhythmic vocal loops are picked apart and threaded with a rich psychodrama of delirious textures, tidal chords and uneasy roughness and dissonance.
vinyl format ships with digital download code.

deepblak chief alchemist aybee returns unveiling >worlds< on deepblak. once again we embark on cross dimensional travels into rhythm as aybee dives head first into sonic landscapes. >worlds< is a rhythmic cartography of the many moods of the oakland, ca based producer. fusing elements of the cosmic, and the deep as he mines through a host of emotional transitions of the last few years. true to aybees production aesthetics >worlds< is full of depth, layers, and colors while touching on various tempos. always seeking to expand the boundaries, aybee once again delivers a long play project that transports the listener while evading convention.

jack dixon follows a string of critically acclaimed releases for apollo (r&s), take and losing suki (hypercolour) with his debut outing for hotflush. influenced by the sparse atmospherics of wolfgang voigt, the playful intricacy of autechre beats and the off-kilter grooves of uk garage, the berlin-based producer is unconstrained by genre or place, pioneering a modern, progressive sound that has already garnered him a glowing reputation. in turns colourful, ambient, melodic and driving, his new ep feels right at home on scubas label. beginning with a deceptively clean and minimal rhythm, >e< slowly gives way to lush glacial drones, skittering beats and huge euphoric drops to form a bold production that sits somewhere between the early morning techno dancefloors of berlin and the murky sweatbox raves of late-night south london. on the flip, he delivers the soulfully taut >find shelter<. warped vocals weave in and out of an insistent, jazzy house groove, backed by a tapestry of glitches, vinyl crackle and live drum flourishes. it all leads to one of the most delirious and ecstatic drops you will hear this year.

guy gerber welcomes the wonderfully talented sonodab to his supplement facts imprint with his nowhere ep - four original tracks, taking you on a journey through deep, dubby house and techno

scntst returns with his second single, giving us a small teaser of his upcoming album

support by noir, sascha braemer, tiger stripes, m.in etc. while its getting colder outside, miyagi sends us beautiful melodies for the autumn. you will bet! but such as love the new rennbahn has got a lot more to offer! weird world is a dreamy & floating deep house track, which will levitate you over the dance floor. warm melodies combined with a heavy bass line make sure to catch the mind of the people. the remix of jaxson & david keno let disappear your thoughts in the straight beat and the floating and hypnotizing bass rhythm! this remix is anything but weird. on the b-side, medusa is waiting for you with deep sounds and a beautiful piano chord in order to take you on a journey through her walk of fame. dont you dare to look at her cause her dreadful sight will turn you into stone. with oliver schories remix you will discover an interplay between deep basses and beautiful highs accompanied by his typical piano sounds which finally come together to one gorgeous climax at the end of the track.

chairlift present takes on several cuts from acclaimed second album >something< by some of their favorite producers, showcasing how their songs can easily be adapted for the club. appropriately titled the 6.15amix, spanish equipo fantástico john talabot and pional turn >i belong in your arms< into a balearica-infused club-closer. a nifty piano line and seductive rhythm take the song on a late night (or rather early morning) trip to the beach, while carolines voice is being warped into something from outer space. photek takes the same track to a whole different place with his powerful jungle interpretation. martyn respects both the pace and rhythm of sidewalk safari, yet exchanges the clean production for a rather more cosmic beat, incorporating many of his signature touches to compliment the sinister >i m gonna hunt you down< lyric. dan careys dub mix of >sidewalk safari< shows a more playful side, while arguably the most intriguing remix of the package is the fields take on >met before<, recalling his early work it is so warped and layered you may struggle to imagine the original minus the smallest of hints.

a debut of sorts by lubin, a new alias for an alum of jeff mills 6277 imprint. the hypnotic rhythm work and textural depth will appeal to fans of baby ford, zip, and villalobos. handpainted jackets, limited to 200 copies.

der knüppelkäfer taucht ab in bunte welten, mit ordentlich schwung und perkusiven attacken treibt er durch einen sturm aus euphorie, exotische rhythmen und afrikanischen voodoo. rambazamba im sturm der emotionen.

after their sure-fire succession of great releases dam swindle end up on the excellent freerange imprint. and if you like the words deep along with atmospheric then this will most definitely appeal to you. from the opening title track with its lush, moody nu-groove styled pads and thunderous hand-claps these three productions simply ooze class and intensity in abundance. next is >gotta know< which rewinds back to classic house sounds and injects a sense of melody into the already swinging rhythms and punchy, detroit bass. which is then followed by >brotherman< and yet more in-depth moods, this time accompanied by jazzy, scat styled vocals for added diversity. finally we have wolf music main man krl stepping up to remix brotherman and a rather sterling job he does to. making great use of the vocal krl brings us a slowed down version with his trademark shuffling drums and a dynamic arrangement. piano stabs and a cheeky boogie synth sample all help bring his own sound to the track and round off the package perfectly.

for our third release, we welcome back the collaborative efforts of our three family members mia dora, hahaha & raksha. joining forces once again, they depart from the awkward rhythms and stuttered arrangements of their first joint outing and instead offer up a slab of relentless, dance floor shattering techno.
dj & radio support from bbc radio 1, kiss fm, sinden, sei a, clouds, jackmaster, mary anne hobbs, joe goddard, eats everything, dubbel dutch, toddla t, tomb crew, mj cole, hannah holland, optimo, sonic router, mash, all caps, greenmoney, lone and more. artwork by grampian mountains.

essential techno for the dancefloor. intense and mechanics. techno that comes from the school where axel karakasis (remain records, kombination research, etc..) is an icon. axels remix confirms his experience and his style: groove, breaks, powerful rhythm. you cant go wrong!

emission of electrons of a surface closes the release. dark and deep drums as cleverly programmed as ever, running on an infinite loop salted with bleeps and microtextures that lay under the ominous rhythm.

the second single to come from miaoux miaouxs acclaimed >light of the north< album, the limited >autopilot< e.p brings us the original track backed with a heavy-duty line-up remixing select tracks from the album. the original title-track is a glittering synth-fuelled hymn to heartbreak, which incorporates elements of bass and hip-hop, while recalling the stylistic flourishes of boards of canada. reworking >hey sound!<, glasgows very own auntie flo and esa bring their exotic stomp to the table: a percussive journey soaked in dubwise holy water. tom furses remix of >stop the clocks< is almost like a reigned-in, beat driven version of john elliots outer space project, thick cosmic ritual elixir bubbling over the sides. already having made his name on skreams disfigured dubz, echo park takes on >autopilot<, turning the original into a cast-iron lesson in militant rhythm. echo parks real talent however lies with integrating elements of the original seamlessly with his own punishing sound palette.

100% silk begs and pleads for all things octo – that eight-sided honest octagon: sweet, sad, shy, hopeful, blissful, light, lifting, longing. going deeper, swelling higher than his first >let me see you< 12 inch, >oh love< unifies touching human experience with technology, sound, and rhythm in a totality of vision.

for those not lucky enough to lay their hands on the genuinely rare first full length album of chicago artist, producer and dj jamal r. moss. here is another chance to obtain this rare artifact. original audiomer. release, only 500 copies pressed.

luca c & brigante are beginning to need no introduction as their heady balearic mix of sounds continue to resonate from the beach to the club. together, they have dropped bombs such as >different morals< feat. ali love and the robert owens fronted >tomorrow can wait<. luca c is also one half of infinity ink, whose >infinity< has been one of the summers biggest records, and a new addition to hot natured alongside jamie jones, ali love and lee foss. sebi aka brigante has remixed the new single from ali love, about to drop on no.19. aligning with the ancient mayan prophecy that the end of the world is due december 21st 2012, luca c & brigantes new single >flash of light< featuring dance music icon roisin murphy is a call to love like there is no tomorrow. embedded in heavy reverb and stripped back to slow steady drums, the mood rises as roisins crystalline vocals fall into rhythm and weightlessness builds with the bassline hook, pearly high-pitched strings and a burst of harmonic percussion.

benny rodrigues is not only a nice dude with his first 12inch for desolat. his recording career goes way back to early collaborations with afrojack or darko esser, as rod he releases on klockworks and clr, has remixed josh wink and dj pierre. the list can go on, but well focus on our lovely release here. somewhere between relentless prime time techno and stripped-down house grooves, with woozy chords carried on a jet-stream of tight rhythms, this is definitely our favorite benny rodrigues release. enjoy!

two of the uks most formidable names in techno step into the ring for a head to head on theory. stephen brown is a man who certainly needs no introduction, and his knack of channeling the best of detroit innovation and adding his own distinct flavours shows no sign of letting up. on >fuego< and >polar< brown takes us further into the jacking zone, his signature lush melodies driving up the rear until they envelope the tracks in a haze of deep and emotive vibrations, but never letting up on the tough rhythms. ben sims is drafted in to remix both tracks, leaving slicing shards of sound and roughing up the beat on his remix of >polar<, before delving into a hard-funk take of >fuego<. big business from two keepers of the true techno flame.

flavour records was born by taste of underground music. created and based in paris, the label soaks up the soul of this city through warm grooves, hot rhythms and sweet harmonies. promoting local new talents like gulivert, rhythm&soul or louca, the label will release featured parisian house music artists as dj w!ld, chris carrier or seuil to name a few, as well as international artists. focused on the essence of house music, the label will be produced and distributed on vinyl support.

manmakemusics fifth release, a 10 inch vinyl-only ep, comes from u, the newest addition to the imprints expanding roster. unlike the labels first four outings that were aimed squarely at the dance floor, this record is a stranger and more pensive affair featuring 4 raw cuts of genre defiant electronica. opener >eah< borrows from 80s chicago house but strips out some of the more familiar tropes leaving just a guttural and infectious rhythm. >evil spirits< is a stuttering mournful piece while >haunted< flips a faintly recognisable sample over a shuffling 4x4 beat. the ep is rounded off with >heaven<, the most optimistic of the 4 tracks, and described by the artist as a warped homage to an idealised golden era of british dance music.

after a well noticed appearance on the dame-music 015 >klub klub elite vol.2< with the track >dam beat for klub david k is back on bloody marys imprint for his own solo ep. >insane dub< ep< unveil a three tracks single from david ks best rhythm and sounds exclusively to dame-music. the man and the machines have done the work. following his huge success on >rue de la plaisance< and not to forget his touch on visionquest >fall winter collection< david has also produced music for labels such as freak n chic, tsuba and the disreputable and widely known cocoon.

the ever cultured house and techno outpost that is the cinematic label here serves up another tasty ep, this time from belgium house and techno stalwart klaina. through a number of eps and a full length, as well as his own radio show and parties in and around belgium, klaina has earned himself a reputation as someone who crafts sci-fi influenced, heavy linear sounds, and his >semiplan< track, along with remixes from the rhythm odyssey, juju & jordash, amir alexander, is no different.

just 14 years old cologne native tim engelhardt is gifted with talent and skills others wont reach within decades. after his remix debut on the new vinyl-label playmusic productions, headed by andreas lindemann, tim comes up with his first solo release including 3 tracks for showing us what the definition of deep house really means. a perfect fusion of groovy soundscapes, rhythmic percussions, melodic piano hooks and epic synth pads is just the basic description of the complex timeless sounds he did. this kid gots real potential being a big one in the future, we should definitely keep an ear on it ...

die musik ist eindeutig an den heavy-jam krautrock der fruehen 70er angelehnt, ueberwiegend episch, spielfreudig und angeheizt von treibenden vintage-fuzz/wahwah-gitarrenriffs und einer massiv marschierenden rhythmussektion. ihre psychedelischen improvisationen von teils weit über zehn minuten lassen auf geschmackvolle art ebenso platz für experimentelle passagen in denen sphaerische orgel / sax / gitarren soundeffekte dominieren, um intensive, originelle und facettenreiche klangbilder zu erzeugen. hier erscheint nun erstmalig das komplette neu zusammengestellte material von spaceship landing inklusive drei bonus tracks mit einer laufzeit von 79.5 min, welches auf authentische art, rein analog produziert und re-mastered wurde.

the movie star junkies are pagan shamans gathering their tribe in a post-post-modern urban wasteland diseased with greed, cold mathematics and assimilation - a world utterly lacking wild beauty and vision.
after their two acclaimed lps released by swiss voodoo rhythm records, a dozen of 7 inch singles and eps and several european tours, the quintet from torino, italy, presents their new album >son of the dust<.

vinyl only release !! limited to 300 copies... after the previous four compilation releases, merkurs founder shingo suwa now announces his own ep. as first track never leave me / original mix is a smooth house track, which combines synthetic riffs and chords with a solid bass line. hm dub is a remix by house mannequin, this remix contains some of the vintage chicago style beat, including filtered pads with dubbed samples. it is an incessant groove of a mellow and simple dub edit. side b inhaled deeply / original is a profound production by shingo, created with a deep and raw groove. wild rhythms assist the techno flavor here as well. sei katsu acid mix was created by the mysterious newcomer sei katsu from miyazaki. this remix is a repetitive trip through hypnotic, sweeping synthesized lines and tricky drumming. its kind of a dj tool that is functional on the dance floor

das beste kommt zum schluss, wie es so schön heißt… acker records wirft zum großen finale der aktuellen freiluftsaison noch mal eine ordentliche portion vertonte sommereuphorie in die runde, oder besser gesagt auf die tanzfläche. warme klangfarben, lebensbejahende rhythmen und eine gehörige dosis hitpotential ziehen sich durch die rillen der platte, welche die herrschaften dole & kom hier vorlegen. für das ständchen auf ihrer „quetschkommode“ lassen sie sich von südamerikanischen melodien inspirieren, die passende percussion dazu liefert entsprechend temperamentvolle schubkraft. home beginnt mit minimalem groove, aus dem takt für takt immer mehr melodieschichten herausfiltern, der rhythmus baut mit jedem beat weiter auf… bis sich der hörer plötzlich inmitten einer zwingenden house-nummer wiederfindet, ohne zu wissen, wie er dort eigentlich hingelangt ist. die b-seite gehört mollono.bass. mit hüpfendem offbeat und funkensprühenden hi-hat-kaskaden treibt er die ausgeprägte latino-euphorie der quetschkommode durch dubbige hallräume.

teranga beat proudly presents the royal band de thiÈs in their first ever and entirely unreleased 1979 recording. singers and composers james gadiaga & secka will guide you through the sweet melodies, wicked rhythms and vocal traditions of senegalese music, in a fabulous performance that combines mbalax with afro-jazz.

craig mcwhinney is a melbourne based dj, producer and live artist. beginning his techno explorations behind the decks in 2000, his transition to the studio has been swift and fruitful. a string of releases on his own label haul music which he co-founded in 2008 with friends mike callander and christian vance, are now being backed up with remixes and eps for speedy js electric deluxe, and brendon moellers steadfast records. drawing upon his wealth of djing experience, he crosses the boundaries of dub infused techno and house with precision and intent, blurring the line between dance floor dynamics, home listening, experimentation and sound design. he is also collaborating with mike callander as haul music live, fusing craigs rhythms with mikes soundscapes to create unique dance floor interpretations of their individual sound experimentations. wild coast is a low-slung filthy minimal romp that possesses as much primal energy as it does futuristic funk. bassbins and heads are likely to be blown by this demented puppy. echologist keeps things lofi, hypnotic and subby.

before the release of his debut album on ki, monokle throws in an ep to show us what to expect. the beautiful track >swan< pretty much describes perfectly what monokle means when he says that simple rhythms and catchy beats get him bored quickly. being influenced by the music of the british imprint warp for example, the sankt petersburg based artist has pretty much developed his own interpretation of well, what should it be called? it is monokle! he has his very own aesthetic approach to music and has a very fine hand for sublime melodies and atmospheres. on the b side he teams up with his friend and partner milinal. >swan< gets a proper retouch by daisuke tanabe, who shares monokles deep soundscapes and is just the right member of the ki family to get his hands on this ep.
pressing on transparent blue 10 inch vinyl.

the layabouts are anything but. 2012 marks leigh darlow and alex paschalis 10th year together and they have never been so in form or demand. their cast iron reputation for quality deep soulful house – house music forged with feeling and real purpose – continues, impressively, to grow.
rhythm master darlow and guitarist cum orchestrator paschali first met in 2001– in home city london – off the back of various projects in the same studio space. in time, their mutual love of expressive house music would lead to cult licks feelin right and the way i feel, sizzling material for kenny dope gonzalez and hot-to-trot remixes of dj spinna, da lata, dj spen and robert owens, and soulsearcher.

guitar and vocal powerhouse philip sayce calls his new album steamroller, and that is absolutely perfect. from the moment the title cuts colossal riff kick-starts the disc until the wall of feedback that finishes the soaring instrumental >aberystwyth< concludes the set list, sayces fourth release for provogue records is a rock n blues joyride — a heavyweight sonic and emotional juggernaut fueled by sayces unstoppable talent.

the second of two eps from talented californian newcomer, tyler friedman, has now arrived. a night in the woods ep starts of as a murky rhythmic experiment. when released of its bound, it transforms into a hailstorm of sound that builds in melodic intensity towards a final climax. this is scenic and brave electronic dancemusic that over and over again will capture the focused listener. on the b-side rivet for sure push tyler towards berghain. but now the tool is somewhat different. rivet transforms the cinematic original into a very dirty and dry party stomper.

twelve years ago tresor records released terrence dixons debut album >from the far future< - a personal homage to the art and ancestry of techno, culminating in a discursive and dream-like course through the genres many tomes, complete with subtle nods to key protagonists such as kraftwerk, derrick may and juan atkins. a luminescent and ethereal catalogue of tracks awash with shimmery synths and taught rhythmical programming - that still holds true today, >from the far future< made for a stunning first full length that cemented dixons already proven credentials from his population one work and utensil records foundations. after a string of stylistically rich releases - including another album, >train of thought<, this time for cologne-based label yore records - the detroit native returns to tresor records with >from the far future pt.2< - an ambitious, scopey and deeply personal sequel.

young marco made a big impression to a new lot of listeners at the beginning of 2012 with his esp institute debut, nonono / darwin in bahia (played by dixon and james murphy amongst others). the young man from amsterdam now returns with a sister 12inch to his nonono, a perfectly complimentary piece of wax that maintains his esoteric stance on house music, and proves that hes no one-trick pony. video days blends marcos signature analog synth work with tribal rhythms and a loose sense of narrative, while the flipside later than u think takes a more cheeky approach, pairing a blissfully stabbing core melody with a mousey counter-melody and setting it all over some huge tom-heavy drum programming. these songs are the perfect close to a beautiful summer, whether youre lost in euphoria as the sun comes up, or simply dancing around your kitchen in the nude.

special 12 inch featuring new versions of the track fa, taken from the debut fennesz solo album >hotel paral.lel< (1997). 15 years after its initial release, christian fennesz gives this throbbing monster of a track a new seeing to, extending it and adding more of that magic he is so well known for. the album was always an exercise in exploring alternate means of hearing club based music. this new version carries that concept further.
this is backed by a cracking new mix by the ever productive mark fell, adding his unique beat structures, and even a mlk sample, which lends his contemporary rhythmic landscape a odd nostalgic twist.
this 12 inch can be seen as a warm up for the new fennesz album, which is currently scheduled for 2013 release.
