ah! kosmos das ist ein bestŠndiges wunder, in dem wir hier mittendrin stecken. beim hšren ihrer tracks bleibt immer wieder nur stauen. den soundtrack zu love & awe spielt seit einem halben jahrzehnt basak gŸnak, sound-designerin, produzentin und multi- instrumentalistin aus istanbul. auch auf ihrem zweiten album ãbeautiful swampÒ verbindet sie elastische bis hart knisternde percussions mit melodischen soundlandschaften. dabei gehšren der universalismus der musik und persšnlicher freiheit untrennbar zusammen: tief im gewebe ihrer tracks aus downbeat und deep house, aus tŸrkischen klangtraditionen und exotischen revieren stecken auch €ngste, glŸck und dŸsternis: gŸnaks musik fŠngt auf, was sie in ihrem leben zwischen istanbul und berlin verarbeitet und Ÿberwindet. den hšrenden bleiben so nicht nur soundscapes zu erkunden, sondern vielschichtige, emotionale kosmen, die mit jeder neuen klangschicht ihre widerhaken ins hirn schlagen. lovely mystical electronics! (richard dorfmeister / tosca / kruder & dorfmeister)

everything begins with changes, whether you re moving geographically or emotionally. aeraÕs album ãthe sound pathÓ tells the story of this sentiment.
born in the high north of germany and now a berlin resident, ralf schmidt aka aera first appeared on the electronic music map when he established his own aleph music label back in 2010. with only a handful of releases, aera was able to lay out his very own musically topography on the cutting edges between house, psychedelia and breakbeats. this colourful mix culminated on his debut album ãoffseason travellerÓ in 2013, resonating the past forty years of electronic music, which brought him the attention of a wider audience as well as fellow djs and producers. so it was a logical consequence that his talent also attracted other labels and lead to widely praised releases on innervisions, maeve or john talabotÕs hivern discs. with these, aeraÕs sound bloomed further into bubbly acid and trancey territorries and his fine reputation as a singular producer, travelling dj and remixer flourished. with ãthe sound pathÓ aera continues his musical travels and permanent vacation is gladly hitchhiking on that ride. his second album is the most coherent and definitely most personal work to date. here, he has perfected his sound even further - adding nuances from the meadows of new age, kraut cliffs and high-flying kites of ambient. complete with the cinematic and nature-esque qualities of ralfÕs music, it will draw you in deeply through a great variety of landscapes before your inner eye. however, youÕll never lose track, because this path is beautifully illuminated.

compiled by hunee, sounds from the far east features highly sought after material by legendary japanese house producer soichi terada and fellow producers shinichiro yokota, manabu nagayama! soichi terada is an adventurous multitalent and over all a good sport. he was born in the sixties, and as a child he loved to play on his fathers electric organ. terada majored in computer science and electric organ and after he graduated, he founded his far east recording in 1989, because he couldnt find a label for his compositions at that time.

following the international success of his much acclaimed debut lp, drone logic, daniel avery expands on his wide reaching world with a carefully curated collection of remixes from the artists with whom averys forward facing electronic style shares the deepest affinity. inviting each producer to either compliment, reconstruct or occasionally rebuild his original compositions, new energy stands as a testament to the strength of the current state of affairs in electronic music, borne out of one of its most original talents.

top-compilation aus dem hause needwant (siehe future disco) mit einer exzellenten auswahl an zeitgenšssischer listening-electronica (idm), die von apparat und luke abbott Ÿber alt-j und lanterns on the lake bis zu nils frahm reicht. cd1 mit 16 tunes in the mix. cd2 mit zwšlf ausgespielten vollversionen.

zusammengestellt aus den besten teilen dreier eps spiegelt es die ungezŸgelte kreativitŠt dieses von strictly kev zusammengehaltenen multi-produzenten projekts wieder, welches in den 1990er jahren von coldcut gegrŸndet wurde. die wahrscheinlich grš§te †berraschung bei the search engine ist der sound.die assoziationen zum frŸhen jazz breaks-dj food sound werden quasi Ÿberollt von einem psychedelic rock album der allerfeinsten sorte - donnerndes schlagzeug und fuzz bass zusammengebracht mit der dj food-typischen sampletechnik. das album erscheint als sehr smart aufgemachtes digipak mit stilprŠgendem und futuristischem cover design wie man das von dj food, der auch als ninja tune chefdesigner fungiert, gewohnt ist. als gŠste mit von der partie sind u.a. the thes matt johnson, natural self und jg thirlwell (foetus, stereoid maximus)!

the series, respected as one of the most popular yet credible dubstep compilations is back with an album to define the sound of 2011. an upfront and up to date selection brings forth 40 of this year s freshest tunes including five exclusive, unreleased tracks, and blazing remixes such as trolley snatcha s chase & status remix, excision & datsik and distance.

this is the first part (of four) of the much anticipated reissue series of drexciya s early catalogue, marking 20 years since the release of their first ep deep sea dweller , and 10 years since their final album grava 4 . one of the most influential techno acts ever, and part of the heritage of detroits underground resistance, drexciya explored techno like no-one else before: raw and uncompromising music that reflected the harsh environment of the city where drexciya was conceived, with a mythical approach that only added to their cult appeal. drexciya arguably stands for the darker side of techno and electro, made not only for the club scene, but a further development of the music as an expression and extension of the mind. journey of the deep sea dweller is a near-complete collection of their early works, released in four parts, with all audio remastered from the original master tapes. since the original releases have such a strong character and stand on their own, these reissue can never recreate the magic of those originals. instead, clone have stirred up the catalogue, taking tracks out of their original context, giving the committed fan a fresh experience and the new listener a document that is the best possible introduction to the aquatic world of drexciya.

the album is just a few seconds under an hour long, consists of seventeen tracks and covers every style from wonky reggae through pop-funk, street spitting, straight up hip hop, sung ballads and epic death-disco. it deepens much of what mr manuva has already achieved over a glorious decade of innovation, but also throws in enough new ideas and adventures to last most creative artists a lifetime. we think it is his very best work since run come save me. we re wondering (whisper it) whether it might be his best album ever.

in einer zeit der scheinbar unbegrenzten moeglichkeiten durch neueste produktionstechnik und unzaehlige samples und loops ist es axel ein anliegen, einen schritt zurŸck zu gehen und sich zu limitieren, weg vom stereotypen / cleanen computerproduktionssound hin zum versuch, die musik wieder als versuch, als experiment zu begreifen. er verzichtet daher bei seinem 2. soloalbum auf die allgegenwaertigen bongoloops, ureinwohnergesaenge und whitenoiseatacken, kehrt zurueck zur drummaschine und zur melodie, die sich wie ein roter faden durch axels werk zieht. ob in den anfaengen als vanguard (mit asem shama), seinem kompaktkatalog, dem ersten soloalbum kiss auf karmarouge 2008 oder neuerer veroeffentlichungen auf sportclub, suol, get physical oder ostwind, immer verleihen melodien seinen stuecken eine besondere stimmung, die sie von den ueblichen dj-tools abgrenzen.

founded in 2007 by julien henry (syhths & vocals) & marc aumont (bass & vocals), rafale got the meters in overdrive right from the start. they played festivals after festivals (les trans musicales, les dŽcouvertes du printemps de bourges, astropolis, art rock...) & stood out thanks to inflamatory shows which raw rock power melts with rapturous clubbing rave. after the release tow eps (rock it, dont stop it - excessively blogged - & drive, one of year 2009s best videos according to french magazine les inrocks) & with the support of the media, this double act grew to a trio when franck richard joined on the drums to work on a third ep produced by arnaud rebotini (blackstrobe) : eraser. rafale is now about to launch debut album produced by arnaud rebotini, on rise recordings

valgeir sigurdsson, former producer of bjšrk, has made his name as an exponent of musical subtlety. as an engineer and producer, hes often focused on the intimate, the miniature. draumalandid (dreamland), a documentary about the exploitation of icelands natural resources, tells a story about huge things-the fortunes of a whole nation, the destruction of vast landscapes, and the global economic forces, greater still than any nation, that fuel it all-and for his soundtrack to the film, valgeir has brought out a heavier set of tools. exciting music for fans of max richter, deaf center, bjšrk.
