hard techno not for the faint hearted!! as we move forward, corseque records introduces a concept which we simply call faction. a series of joint releases between artists from different corners of our beloved scene and label head ascorbite. for the second record we are pleased to have with us italian producer warind (warind records, instruments of discipline, overdraw).

imagine a collab between cabaret voltaire and eric copeland mixed by the scientist and you’ll start to enter the sphere of robin asselman. all spectrums explored. the off kilter dub waltz of ’16-16’ stutters into view with a heavy and heady rolling dread, whilst inaudible vocal snippets and flatlining synth lines echo and enforce a melee of repetition and danger. ‘fitness talk’ perhaps best showcases assel’s interest in dubwise production techniques, and his ability to soak up a palette of sound and turn it into something truly his own. soft familiar bass pads provide the backbone here for all out sample mayhem, a space where recognisable dub effects and sonars vibe alongside absolutely unsettling outer samples of jarring vocals and inaudible upset, purposefully mixed to jolt ears into unfamiliar territories. being the nephew of dj marcelle, this experimental approach and inspiring concept of pushing samples to the absolute limits of their origin to create a new unexplored path is clearly something that has been fed down from marcelle to robin throughout his youth....

das beste von dem sänger mit der rauchig-smoothen stimme, der seit mehr als 30 jahren als solokünstler, songwriter und produzent erfolgreich ist. “can’t stop a man” präsentiert 36 ausgesuchte songs aus den jahren 1976 bis 2003 auf triple-lp im gatefold sleeve und ausführlichen liner notes & track by track-notes, geschrieben vom us-amerikanischen reggae-experten rob kenner. erstmalig in jahre 2003 parallel zum gleichnamigen 2cd-digipak set erschienen, ist dieses beres hammond porträt wieder als vinyl erhältlich. das zitat von prime entertainment zum konzert im kölner stadtgarten bringt es auf den punkt: “beres hammond beeindruckt mit seiner durch tiefes timbre geprägten, dennoch smoothen und sehr eindringlichen stimme. seine texte sind stets von einer emotionalen dichte und der wahrheit getragen, dass wir eigentlich alle nur nach liebe suchen. diese essentielle message verpackt er in große dancehall-smasher, ebenso wie in romantische balladen und in spirituelle rootsgesänge.”

one of the most important harmony groups in the entirety of jamaican music, the paragons have a long and complicated history. first formed in the ska years by bob andy and tyrone evans as the duo of andy and ronnie, the group soon expanded to a quartet through the addition of howard barrett and john holt, the latter naturally assuming lead duties, following the subsequent departure of andy, holt, evans and barrett made the paragons the quintessential rock steady trio. they had an incredible run of hits for duke reid and coxsone during the mid-to-late ‘60s, and also issued some self-produced work, before holt’s solo career skyrocketed, leaving the group on the back-burner. then, in the mid-1970s, the paragons reformed, cutting material for new york-based labels such as clocktower and clintones, which led to this intriguing album, which saw material recorded in jamaica at harry j for bunny lee mixed with work cut at bullwackie’s studio in the bronx, along with re-workings of classics such as ‘left with a broken heart’ and ‘memories by the score’ is a whole range of new material, dealing with contemporary themes.

bristol based arkist has always been a versatile producer and as a result has an impressive rage of releases under his belt, with revered imprints such as hotflush and hypercolour. recently he has been experimenting further in the studio and is ready to present his first 12inch in few years, under a brand new alias - astrocat. in this debut, self-titled ep it is instantly apparent that vocoder-infused funk and disco of the highest order can be expected from this new astrocat guise. the ep is full of vintage talk box vocals, warm spacey chords and infectious basslines that bring classic records from the likes of zapp and the rah band into mind. with 5 tracks this ep has a lot to offer. wether it be the raw, funked up james of the opener small talk and title track astrocat or the more chilled, woozy grooves of nightflare . with features from mr woodnote and a dub remix from appleblim this ep s roots sit firmly in the south west. local legend dj die even lent his vocoder to the studio for some of the recordings.

since the inception of gregory vand and susan subtract’s electro-punk outfit high-functioning flesh in 2012, the band has proven to be one of the most singular acts in years, defying the genre tag of “classic” ebm, as the creativity and fresh perspective they bring to the stage and studio has been instrumental in carving out a modern audience for the genre – elevating hff into a category all their own. following their striking debut on dka records in 2014, high-functioning flesh delivered an exceptional step forward in their sound on their sophomore effort for dais records, the “definite structures” lp in 2015. since then, high-functioning flesh has toured extensively with label mates body of light and previewed their caustic shift to a more refined, hardened signature with their “human remains” single in 2016. we now find high-functioning flesh at their sharpest and most poised position to date within their newest album: “culture cut”

12inch whitelabel, limited to 300 hand stamped and numbered copies, coverartwork by utramoodem. schockglatze is the distillate of a longstanding collaboration between artists working across the frontiers of several forms. with audio- visual performances, band projects and international exhibitions as part of their armoury, spõnk, nik nowak and moritz stumm have been causing a stir within the art and music worlds for years. spõnk has already cooperated with a range of acclaimed vocalists including warrior queen, sensational and christoph waltz. he forms the solid basis and is the sonic central nervous system (scns) for the studio productions of schockglatze. nik nowak, most notably through his sound tank or ôpanzerö (2011), has in recent years worked closely with musicians such as (the late) dj rashad and dj spinn, and sonic poly-math the bug. last but not least moritz stumm aka ultramoodem, who brings to schockglatze an inimitable rhythmicity and graphic dimension. as a graphic artist, vj and video director he created a singular technique of synergetic audio-visual effects redolent of a hyper-voodooism, the aesthetic of which has become a signature style of schockglatze. the warlord ep showcases their various influences and is only a taste of the sound from éheart of the mandelbulbÆ and includes a remix by hyperdubÆs ikonika

lost desert and lee burridge return to get weird with an ep aimed squarely at the dance floor. k bug’ is a steam train slowly gathering pace as it moves forward. the chugging groove and fat bassline has been whipping the crowd in to a frenzy everywhere it s dropped. hinduma’ is a tracks that causes the mouth to contort while mouthing out the wonky synth line. and ‚reply to sender’ is a slow burner with a trippy ethnic melody and a drop that goes all mystical. three tracks for the clubs

fresh from charming the pants off us with the verdant echoes from the southern place 12-, italian producer piero paolinelli is back as sofa talk with a new single striding out on the ever fantastic tusk wax. this 12- comes steeped in different shades of party music, from the bouncy organ chords and motor city leads of -disquiet- through to the slickly diced up boogie tones of -elastic-. as well as paolinelli s mighty fine originals, the remixes come from some big hitters. ad bourke gets on board to turn -disquiet- into a energised, bubbling house burner while posthuman brings some of his trademark tough acid touches to elastic-.

moss co. returns with rising italian star noha for a thoughtful 3 tracker remixed by label boss archie hamilton. loopo di mare on the a1 is a positively groovy affair. rolling percussion and driving stabs modulate and talk to each other playfully, punctuated by big pad sweeps and mini breaks keeping the dance floor enthralled, the kind of track that could be deployed effectively at any time of night and have a different result each time. cat takes a more heads-down approach. loose and lively percussion meets a concurrent synth, sustaining pressure throughout the intro, hinting at deeper message which is finally delivered in the form of a powerfully emotive lead. guaranteed eyes-closed, heads down. archie hamilton toughens up the percussion in his interpretation of cat on the flip side. driving bass meets crisp highs, tight drums and a hypnotic, distant vocal. the lead is kept until the first break where it is used to great effect - kept close to the original, but with added warmth and distortion. a tried and tested dance-floor bomb.

telharmonic texture launches its first factory product on the market and as the first artist we talk about jeff samuel, a historian of micro house with dubious ep creates the new path of this unique vinyl label. four minimal melodic tracks and purely old school sound. release estimated for the summer! vinyl only!

one of the sweetest and most idiosyncratic voices in reggae, tenor singer cornell campbell also has one of the longest-running careers of any jamaican recording artist. taken under studio one founder clement sir coxsone dodd’s wing at a very young age, cornell cut his first recordings in 1956, long before ska was even established. he remained based at studio one for many years (working as a label printer as well as a recording artist), and also voiced sides for king edwards in the ska years. he then briefly joined the sensations in rock steady and recorded at treasure isle, before moving back to studio one as leader of the eternals when reggae arrived, cutting huge hits there such as stars and queen of the mistrel, and giving early coaching to slim smith, jacob miller and bassist robbie shakespeare. joining forces with ace producer bunny striker lee in the mid-1970s brought a dramatic new surge in popularity that greatly boosted his profile overseas. the ropin lp was issued on third worlds justice subsidiary in 1980 a sub label set up to handle strikers product in the uk (though hits like mash you down and the title track had been handled in jamaica by joe gibbs). one of the albums outstanding moments is bandulu, an anti-rude boy epic voiced on the late night blues rhythm, while opening cover, just my imagination, has an uncredited toasting portion from errol scorcher.

it’s no exaggeration to say that geraldo pino and his band the heartbeats kickstarted the whole soul/funk/afrobeat scene in west africa. mixing highlife, funk and jazz, and using the latest equipment, they laid waste to all before them. in 1966 fela kuti was a jobbing musician, eeking out a living with highlife bands. when gerlado pino came to town, it changed his life.
“pino tore up the scene,” he recalls in an interview with carlos moore. “i knew i had to get my shit together. and fast!”

some quality techno on this new label from paris including a beauty of a remix by conforce! for this first vinyl ep, shlomo, one of the label’s owner arrives with two original tracks with a deep atmosphere crossing classic techno drums. the other side presents two remixes, one from the edinburgh’s techno master stephen brown with a fine old school reshaping. next comes the conforce’s remodel which will talk to all ambient and minimalistic techno, 100% as we love his sound. beautiful contracts between the liquid beauty and massive force of techno.

ofo the rock company (originally known as ofo the back company) were nigeria’s first acid-rock band. blending hendrix and deep purple with shamanism and a pro-black philosophy, they cut their teeth at fela kuti’s afrika shrine, developing a fearsome live reputation that intimidated every other band in lagos. no one wanted to follow the guys from ofo, not even fela himself.

high-energy, rowdy, raucous, longhair mississippi glam rock. that’s the sound of easy, the week’s long-awaited followup to their breakthrough album, dear bo jackson. recorded at ardent studios in memphis, easy finds the weeks doubling down on a mix of groove, grit, and guitars. it’s swaggering and sharply-focused, shining new light on a band of brothers who, although still in their mid-20s, have already logged a decade’s worth of sweaty gigs together. easy consolidates the band’s strengths, it’s driving and direct, captured in punchy sound by producer paul ebersold. “we called it easy because every time i make music with these guys, it’s easy,” says cain, who has spent more than a third of his life as a member of the weeks. “but the other side of it is, there’s nothing easy about being in a band... we have the easiest job on the planet. but it works for us.”

the always wonderful begin returns after a very balearic absence ! and what a return ! let s talk eases us in with some trademark begin style mid-tempo mellowness, as undulating melodic elements are carried straight to the beach on gently lolloping beats aight adds a little more anticipation, with a syncopated backbone and some mesmerising carl craig style synth cycles... on the b, the cut the paste is a burly, new beat inspired chugger, which manages to sound exactly like an early morning, strobe-lit boccaccio moment, while simultaneously basking in the midday sun

orbis x is a sublabel of orbis records and will be mainly focusing on softer yet often usable as dj material for the broader mass interested in electronic music. this sublabel is an extension of orbis records softer, more melodical and experimental side. music will be ranging from house, dub, chicago over melodic acid and even breaks. not any track makes it to this sublabel if it ca’t stand on its own and stand the test of time!

the first official collection of japanese soul, funk and disco in the west. lp version is a double, pressed on 180g vinyl in heavy duty gatefold jacket.
talk of japanese soul often refers to enka, the sentimental ballad emanating from downhome bars and karaoke boxes. from the late 1960s, however, reverberations from across the pacific would lead to the nation’s own take on soul music as we know it in the west. some of the artists showcased on this compilation may not have been commercially successful but their legacy stands the test of time.

this disco funk banger was discovered reasonably late in the game on the deepfunk scene. vivian lee s big powerful vocal over the pushy backing is what its all about, straight to the point short and sweet dance floor killer. this sounds better than the o.g which was pretty rough.
