little is known about mysterious producer tommy rawson. our first acquaintance was the aptly named shy track on red rackems smugglers inn 001 release. we tried to find out more but the trail got cold pretty quick. it was not until hearing gilles peterson playing a version of hugh masekelas dont go lose it baby on his show that word got around, tommy rawson was back. this particular anthemic track found its way to mats who then started playing it out and every time, in every club no matter where in the world the reaction was same, people completely lost it on the dance floor! we had but no choice to release the track and luckily enought tommy must have a sixth sense because at the same time mats blasted the track at the local talk office to convince tooli shouting: this is the next big release for local talk, i m telling you! another track made it into his mailbox, the soulful house jam brenda done died with no name. both tracks ended up on this 12 inch of course. mr rawson has delivered the goods here, warm, sunsplashed music all the way. a name to watch for this year and probably not mysterious for long.

for the labels fourth release the aula magna team welcomes our first international guest, uks rising sound architect tomas rubeck. with inster ep the artist presents carefully crafted dub techno cuts and for remix duty we invited swedens mattias fridell to cast his techno spark to the package. its clear that rubecks sound and groove palette is born from producer whose artistry has taken a major leap forward. richly textured soundscapes define inster 01 and inster 02 on the a side, deep and warm tracks that hypnotize on steady but pushing beats. an inspiring experimental attitude gives shape to the aforementioned and the rest of the record. b sides inster 03 rests on a more broken-beat focus and the digital exclusive inster 04 shifts back to the dancefloor. in between, fridells cleverly designed rework of 03 boosts rubecks sounds into peak-time mayhem. a futuristic odyssey through unexplored acoustic dimensions awaits the listener

after the killer release by marco shuttle vidd is back after a long silence with their 2nd release. a special release from somebody who has done a lot in a very short time: gw from stockholm. surrounded by mystery and simplicity, hurry up demonstrates both power and heft with few elements. the driving force builds a tension which really doesnt reach a peak, something that the locked groove vocal manages to balance perfectly. the energy is constant and keeps things interesting. the b-side starts off with runaway, a chicago-resembling funk track that reflects the 90s tradition and the new digital age. tonight closes the doors of this release and the closing lights come on, it is time to go home.
