LATE NIGHT TALES: AUTOMATIC SOUL (LTD 3X12 LP, 180G + MP3)
3x12 Inch LP 05.11.14
tom findlay (groove armada) und late night tales beweisen wieder einmal geschmack und stilsicherheit. auf spätsiebziger yacht-pop folgt supercooler 80s groove, der sound der post-disco-Ära, als der soul/r&b das synthesizer-zeitalter enterte. wir hören begnadete jimmy jam/terry lewis-produktionen für thelma houston und alexander o neal, wir hören sharon brown in einer produktion der disco-legende tee scott, wir hören die Übergroover mtume und zapp, wir hören die smashhits von donna allen, rene & angela und des timex social clubs, und als exklusives cover hören wir eine superbe version von sugardaddy (tom findlay & tim hutton) des hitklassikers *dont look any further*.
die 3x12 inch lp erscheint als limitierte 180g pressung mit 18 von 20 ausgespielten tracks, audiophil auf halber geschwindigkeit gemastered, inkl. bonus-download-code mit allen tracks (einmal komplett ausgespielt, einmal als mixset) in wav/mp3-formaten, im gatefold mit antistatischen innentaschen.
unified by dubs loose sense of space and deep sub-frequencies, chllngrs unique amalgam of soul, pop, stripped-down beats, and decaying atmospheres has earned the copenhagen-based artist, steven jess borth ii, adulation from press and peers alike.
mit seinem solo-debütalbum *the boxer* brach bloc party-sänger kele okereke vor vier jahren endgültig aus dem rock-korsett seiner stammband aus und katapultierte sich direkt auf die tanzflächen der clubs. mit dem auf lilac records/kobalt label services erscheinendem neuen album *trick* geht kele noch einen schritt weiter. die songs sind geschmeidiger, souliger, einfach deeper. der fokus liegt unter anderem auf keles einzigartiger stimme. kele okereke gelingt es auf dem in london und new york city aufgenommenem album, äußerst persönliches songwriting in einen clubmusik-kontext zu bringen. *trick* verneigt sich vor der geschichte der clubmusik und vermengt old schooligen soul mit modernen, elektronischen r&b. und das alles mit urbritischer nonchalance.
death of a cheerleader spielen indie rock mit einflüssen von postrock und doom. fuer dancing around the fire of volcano reiste die band nach stockholm, um mit cult of luna-drummer und soundengineer magnus lindberg (ef, grande roses) zusammen zu arbeiten. das ergebnis ist ein homogenes, natürliches und dunkles klangbild.

up next on craig bratleys magic feet label is the vanity ep. this release is aimed at the vinyl completist and features four remixes which have so far been unreleased or received a digital release. the ep contains three remixes by craig, catalepsis *quartz giaponese*, the souls *tonight* and four walls *no use* as well as the sought after sean johnston remix of *obsession*.
at its very first start, the new label founded by conrad van orton proposes a vinyl of his own with two original tracks on the a side, november and captivity archives. and two great remixers such as vsk and the mysterious annuled user on the other. just as the needle starts to mark the passage, the classic four quarters give life to a beat that between one step and another compresses catapulting reality in a classic industrial scenario of mid-autumn where the clear sky gets marked by black and deep plots. a background noise accompanies the whole programming part of the drumming that gives off a relentless pace. on the a side captivity archives reconfirms the industrial nature of cvo with a look towards distant galaxies ..... with the needle still hot we turn around the record to the b side. here we find the vsk remix with a more ambient and crystal clear sound. to the original drum, vsk, choose an equally technical percussion. all home made. last but not least the contribution given by annulled user. trademark? techno! .. and there is nothing here to mess about with. 4/4 dry, hard which feel anger and rebellion desire. the kick, fairly present, is ripped apart by some demonic filters. the 5.30 min of annulled user are a reminiscence of the 90s.

moments in rhythm vol 3. was inspired by an in-depth conversation that questioned the level of importance that todays society does or does not value its critical art forms, most specifically music … the universal language, as a means of free expression. from this passionate discussion spawned the composition of an opened ended letter, written in 4/4 format that captures and shares the passion of this conversation, and ultimately asks some questions such as … is it in you?
it seems like no part of the world has evaded discos ubiquitous inuence, including the caribbean. the caribbean in the late 70s and early 80s was a hotbed of musical activity and this compilation focuses on the best disco-inuenced tracks from trinidad and tobago, jamaica, and the bahamas. all of the tracks here were ocially licensed and reissued for the first time ever. highlights of the 13 tracks included on this compilation are: the under-the-radar cosmic disco tune -got to have you- by joanne wilson, a rare p&p records-inuenced track -dance with me- by odessey one, the icy cool synth-trenched -living on a string- by wild fire, the incredible dance oor-friendly -instant funk- by merchant, and the disco reggae cover of -rapper s delight- by prince blackman. this compilation was compiled and researched by deano sounds and includes edits by al kent, the whiskey barons, and waxist selecta.
after dropping the hammer with blunt instruments killer hold back ep, dungeon meat are back again debuting on their own label with the brain mincing lose your mind ep. both sides deliver big swings of their mighty axe and hit hard with their signature sound of meaty beats & beefy basslines. aimed straight at the dance floor, it s obvious both the tracks have the intention to crack some skulls and spill some brains. already road tested individually by tristan da cunha and brawther at their d.j gigs & their dungeon meat live show, the reactions have shown that both of these tracks hit the chest and do the damage. also included are two -tools- so the creative djs out there can get busy in the mix and give their sets a little meat injection. pressed on 180g vinyl with embossed company sleeve dressed to impress with the trademark dungeon meat artwork

produziert hat sie krautpop- und noise-gott schneider tm. *nervös*, ihr name, ist programm für chris imlers wesen und wirken. nervosität als angemessene haltung gegenüber einer gleichzeitig bedrohlichen wie aufreizend öden wirklichkeit. die songs auf dem album klingen wie alan vega, daf, silver apples, hasil adkins und joe meek gemeinsam - aber gespielt von einer person.

russian producer neotnas deliveres >slow & steady<, his first ep on soundtravels (st006). we have already introduced him on our first various artist ep >point of view part 1< (st005). typical for his sound is that warm, organic feel all over his house and dubtechno productions. very often accompanied by female vocals and its almost like you hear somebody play a live instrument if you listen carefully. the ep kicks off with the massive floorfiller >trunk party<. an energetic, solid built up track with that bassline killer hook. >user mood< has that typical basic channel touch. dubby techno guided by a floating bassline and little pleasant delays. we are slowly moving forward with evolving sticky, dubby beats in the title track >slow & steady<. this one will warm up every dancefloor, but is also very welcome in the afterhours. the last addition to this ep is >hold<, a warm deephouse track with moody, hopeful and sensitive sounds which reflect beautiful emotions. timeless material again which covers you up like a warm blanket. enjoy!
