repress - folk-jazz composer/arranger arthur verocai was born in rio de janeiro. he has created challenging arrangements and compositions for brazilian artists jorge ben, ivan lins, leny andrade and gal costa. in 1972 verocai recorded a self-titled solo lp. it is a stunningly innovative effort. it puts verocai into a rarified field with the heavy string oriented music of charles stepney, david axelrod and frank zappa. released in a period marked by the brazilian military government, the album fared poorly. following its re-issue in 2003 the album has become a highly influential oft sampled classic (see ludacris, mf doom and little brother). the performance of this seminal 1972 record in its entirety brought the capacity luckmann crowd to a stand still. according to verocai, >he had never played the record, alive or dead!< the music has been mixed by verocai himself in rio. history turned on its head and musical justice served.

kevin m. kennedy aka fbk is escaping. escaping from the everyday struggles of life in columbus, ohio, usa. one of his escape routes is his music and when you listen to his tracks you can feel why. his music is emotional to the core, no matter if its powerful and heavily funky techno such as >flying hybrids< or dark and sinister straight electro like >chosen path<. every single sound and rhythm is pure fbk and will cause a frenzy on the dancefloor. having released on shakes frictional label as fbk and on detroit based label xplor as the sleep engineer, kevin is not a newbie in the techno circus. diametric. is proud to release the first new record from the expert escapist since 1997. why he remained below the radar for so many years is a mystery. fbk will have further upcoming releases on frictional soon. no digital distribution. limited to 320 handnumbered copies. save the vinyl.

hailing from leipzig in germany is an artist whos music has been pricking up many ears across the global underground over the last few years. its hard to put a finger on what it is about kassem mosses productions that make repeated listening a must, but the intricacy, fresh arrangements and musical depth definitely play a part in attracting labels such as the highly respected techno imprint workshop, the legendary soma records and now nonplus are honoured to present his latest 12 inch. a) kassem mosse – >we speak to those< first up on the a-side we have >we speak to those< a 4/4 track of the highest quality that keeps you guessing from start to finish. the rugged and raw kick and bassline immediately set the foundations for the incoming awkward chord stabs whilst reversed beats lazily slur in and out over the main groove giving the track the unnerving feeling that its almost changing tempo. random sound effects and a non conforming arrangement make this track about as predictable as the english summer. one listen to this and youll immediately understand why this artist is getting love from some of the scenes biggest players at the moment. aa) kassem mosse – >hi res< phased drum machine breakbeat patterns and stutered percussion redolent of the early detroit techno uprising give this track an outstanding quality of being able to conjure up the same feelings of hope and optimism for electronic music that the aforementioned era managed to. thought provoking chord progressions take your mind on an excursion to the future and leave you gagging for an extended trip. think skyways, flying cars and towering metal buildings footed with dark abysmal underworlds and youll get the drift. they don t come much deeper than this one

when listening to scsi-9 its quite unavoidable the mind turning apart from the body and flying, fantasizing about unexplored roads and boundaries. once again, anton and maxim are providing a trip within their personal globe, travelling in the terra del fuoco (tierra del fuego), in the southest city of te world, ushuaia. tom turns the wave in an heavy deep stone, surely to become a classic to be hold in the most fond of the genre library. the voice is shaped in the loop and becomes like paraffin, the chords completing the whole, transforming an electronic piece into a classic dance floor track. the second track, chasing shadows, following the first one basic line, fill up the b side with the yapacc remix, not disappointing the expectations and concluding the ep in a classy way, giving voice to monsters and fairies, flowing into or days groove.
support by: someone else, osunlade, oliver klein, dj sneak, patrick zigon, nic fanciulli ...

>close your eyes< is easily the most powerful cut on the record. while the low end hammers away and the drums keep chugging, the edge is taken off by sparse piano chords that will keep you flying no matter how tired your feet may be. play it at peak-time and the club will go crazy. play it at the end of the night, and its the perfect note to send people off into the abyss.

mothership transmission 027 – maetrik the >space chronic< ep was the biggest selling record on mothership last year and for good reason. maetrik has an incredible knack for innovative and original sound design. he is also able to package these sounds inside great arrangements and very dj friendly beats. this is what really separates his records from the rest of the sound design experts. >show me< is the perfect example of maetriks amazing talents. after several minutes of a super funky techno groove (2 things that dont usually go together) we find ourselves at the drop. and this drop is one of the best we have ever heard. it sounds like an angry wasp is flying full speed through the inside of your brain. the riff will melt your mind. >simpleman< on the other side is a great example of maetriks versatility. you might be expecting a hardcore techno bit but instead we hear a very groovy, almost reserved jazz techno fusion joint, but still with the heavy beats to keep it real for the clubs.

westpark unit (aka herb lf & ingo saenger) are back with their annual release on farside records after some work for labels like dessous, tjumy, future classic or fear of flying. this time, they provide 4 brandnew trax for the vinyl edition. more forever might be familiar to a few people that followed the music of westpark unit over the years. the tune is a special rework of their first ever limited 12inch release forever back in 2002 on draft recordings. more forever took some of the original deep harmonies, keeps parts of the piano loop and the beautiful sampled hook and should be a soulful bomb on the 2009 floors. even deeper 45 grows and grows with a very intensely chord, takes you on a trip with its driving bassline and is the other dubby deep house tune here. the first demo version received some nice feedback / chartings / plays from djs like dplay, matt flores or shur i kan. while speaking of house (not house), jam hot and familiar sequence are musically caught somewhere in between the styles. jam hot might be more funk than house with sexy 104 bpm, is bouncing like hell and keeps the crowd shaking and moving. familiar sequence appeals to the disco fanatics out there, has a little of a balearic vibe and is also keeping things slow. both tunes are the perfect startup into the night. we think this is the right tempo for party anyway.

thanks to the blinding fabric live mix and a series of highly entertaining interviews the demand for new omar-s product is now at an all time high. hes on top form here with three fresh cuts representing his sound to the fullest. opening track flying blind is a must have for fans of the deeper omar s tracks like psychotic photosynthesis. following that up is still serious nic which is probably my favourite track on the record, its got that heavily monged out raw omar-s machine vibe to it. things straighten out a bit on the b-side thanks to the smoothed out vocal house of left him up. then it finishes off with the deep house of flying gorgars. once again omar-s proves hes too steps ahead of the deep house pack. essential

well known on the dnb and dubstep scene for his fiendishly twisted artwork, uk creative genius monsta is also a beast of a producer. in this, his third release for subtrakt he teams up with >mr key< to bring us >space raiders<, a vocal dubstep demon of truly gargantuan proportions, so huge, in fact that it threatens to bring down mankind itself. or maybe its just a packet of crisps? dean rodell bravely attempts to contain the threat on his remix, but an army of space raiders march up out of their packet and flatten the whole city using a supernatural arsenal of sonic weapons that pull down skyscrapers with rasping bass and fry a million brains with shrieking sirens that can be heard in even the far corners of the galaxy. on the second remix dnb hero >raiden< stands up, and the guerilla war begins. taking his inspiration from the paranoid b-movies of the cold war era he morphs the original lead sounds into something so spooky and bizarre the space raiders have no choice but to pack their flying saucers and piss off back to zetareticuli. phew, that was close. supported by maryanne hobbs (bbc radio1)
