last year’s ‘the age of compassion’ by chicago underground house don tevo howard was one of the standout tracks for buzzin’ fly in 2011with widespread dj and media support. it joined his burgeoning body of work on other acclaimed labels such as rush hour and his own beautiful granville. now tevo returns with his follow-up for buzzin’ fly. if ‘the age of compassion’ was a simple and elegant dancefloor bump wrapped in warm analogue melancholia, then the ‘monument ep’ is its nemesis - a stark future-retro reinterpretation of the origins of house music build from the bare components of machines: raw drums, sub bass, sine waves, square waves and oscillators. and yet there is still a burnished beauty to this ep. all three tracks seems to find echoes of each other in their arrangements and brittle harmony. machine music for the modern age edged with passion and feeling, and another fresh step for its producer.

gabriel ananda was captivated by the sound of classical music by the early age of 8. he was encouraged by his family to practice the cello, but it was through playing the guitar that fueled his motivation to continue to learn about music. the guitar became a useful tool to express his creativity, but gabriel was not finished searching for his musical direction. in 1995 that changed. a dj set by sven väth was the pivotal moment that ended gabriels search to find his passion and two years later, the new producer celebrated his first release for the german label hörspielmusik. he went on to release singles on treibstoff, trapez, platzhirsch, and karmarouge before producing what was for him, a life changing track

zooloft records is approaching to the era of future tech-noir and this release is the result of an internal process of thoughts and ideas behind them. it tells the story of a sad wanderer who is trying to find the path to personal truth. outside, a desolate scenario of modern architectures of cold glass, standing to the edge of horizon. a wonderland of mirrors and empty landscapes: the triumph of solitude. the a side starts with a complex and claustrophobic dark-techno driver which sets a point of no-return. an obsessive pattern of sub-frequencies collides with breaths from the beyond. sound paranoia. the highest frequencies create phrenetic and compulsive rhythms to make the dynamics imploding. the heroes of modern-age industrial techno, orphx, make the path to truth harder. they trace an obscure reinterpretation of the a side with a percussive alarm that marks the time, while dense and anxious atmospheres are followed by syncopated beats and distorted high-frequencies. the breaths from the beyond are now closer than ever. the ep gets closed by an evocative, thoughtful and beatless composition. the perfect soundtrack for those who are wandering and wondering

from the public dance hall to the disco, from the smooch to the shake, fromthe orchestra to the deejay. daniele baldelli remains one of the first italiandeejays, who started his illustrious career back in the 60s and became one ofitalo discos kings of the dancefloor throughout the 70s and 80s. >cosmic disco? cosmic rock!< celebrates a turntable odyssey from a man who lived andbreathed italian disco, american rnb and synth pop and pioneered the soundwhich, with retro chic hindsight, has influenced everyone from i-f, hell, felix, miss kittin & the hacker, marco passarani, tiga, trevor jackson, lindstrom, bochum welt and dopplereffekt amongst many more djs and producerswho have mined the golden age of synth pop for inspiration. featuring rare andhard to find tracks from fra lippo lippi, positive noise, the romantics, labionda, ray parker jnr., thompson twins, martha and the muffins and richard bone, >cosmic disco? cosmic rock!< takes on a dancefloor mission to the shoresof lake garda where from 1979 – 1984 cosmic was the place to be and danielebaldelli was the disco king at its epicentre.

on this white label, we bring together two of the best producers in the uk to give there perspective of the work of sbtrkt. the ratio of quality to quantity in the braiden repertoire is disproportionately weighted in favour of quality. his debut release >the alps<, on joy orbisons label doldrums, certified him as a meticulous detailed producer. if youve heard is rinse fm show, youll have enjoyed the intensity and breadth of his perspective. this musicological take on sbtrkts >pharaohs< recontextualises roses gabor afro-futuristic vocals line in a more genuinely space-age industrial club sphere. the darker edge to lil silva is just the baddest of all uk house producers. his uk funky background has sheltered him from the hype lauded upon the flavour of the month post-dubstep producers of his generation. as a result, hes continued to garner respect from all sides, from the garage scene to the tech house scene. his treatment of >living like i do< takes his mate samphas vocal and adds a jerk discord to an already tense and dramatic vocal performance. his trademark 2-note bassline presents itself with its usual menace, ensuring waistlines to react promptly.

with two massive reissues from suns of arqa and jaki whitren under their belts, the fledging label emotional rescue have come up with the goods once again, with this remastered reissue of incredibly rare 70s psyche-funk from bob chance. two versions are included: the original 7 inch version, driven along by a razor-sharp guitar riff and sweetly lamenting lyrics, topped off with weird cosmic synths and galloping rhythm. however, the real gem is the edit entitled >wild its broken< which sharpens the focus of the guitar and adds some serious kick to the drums to create a beefy counterpart to the new age original.

after 7 years of staying out of the limelight, mille & mr.hirsch (playhouse, newpolish, r.a.n.d. musik and much more!) are back with new material. the new imprint owes its name to a group of berlin artists called apollo krieg who produce fashion, artworks and whacky installation art. with berlin as their base, mille & mr.hirsch hang around & see much of their work influenced by the work of this group and decided to name it after this group of artists – true to the motto: nowadays the guys from apollo krieg also produce music. side a: (apollo/alpha) golden age is the classical, heart-warming, romantic and seemingly never-ending deephouse epic which finds its place somewhere between detroit house, balearic, jazz and funk. it is always a tad larger than life and opulent in harmony and melody but, with due to its well-defined instrumentalization, it seems somehow traditional. this track has a 9-minute arc of suspence and is devoid of any drum-machine orgies and razzle-dazzle a unique piece of shit!side k: (krieg/kokain) kinky love is a bit more modern, with more track, less melody and less music. the mix of strong samples (e.s.p./kinky go) with slightly dark and deep functional track make this 8-minute track a potential floorfiller! best regards apollo krieg berlin

panacustica’s fourth release is amongst cosmic metal mother’s finest work. “time is now” the track in question, defies definition by mastering a style on it’s own, by fusing elements echoing from prog-rock drenched with emotional content into an adult and contemporary way of delivering which is unique to the cmm writing style. the original is melancholic bliss. a vocal line at the center of the piece whispers words about oscar wilde and mr. death accompanied by a cello melody that grows bigger and bigger into an angelic cascade of notes. the track begins and ends in the most bare way with just a drum beat leaving you with the feeling you have just entered a loop where time is irrelevant. commodity place has the second cut of the a side. the duo from rome, known in the global underground of the vinyl tribes for their signature guitar style, chooses to call their mix “experience”, clearly paying homage to the gods of rock, delivering a guitar solo that will fire up your speakers and fill your eyes with the brightest psychedelic colors that we all so desperately need in this age of grey anonymity. the b-side is a full eight-minute mix by the man who needs no introduction and made us all dance since day one, larry heard, a.k.a. mr. fingers. his version is a fast “four to the floor” track, where a shaker drives the house beat into the melodic lines and voice borrowed from the original, making it one hundred per cent dance floor efficient with the modernity and mastery of his touch

after years, this vinyl-wielding 4-piece originating from brighton — the one and only soft rocks — have finally committed their collective wit to a slew of original tunes. >we hunt buffalo now< is a punky dub monster serving as the first single in a series surrounding their = imminent debut album, >the curse of soft rocks<. in an age where any laptop-savvy poseur can upload their bland nu-disco or faux-chi-house directly to the cesspool of digitally downloadable fodder, it is more than refreshing to hear this cheeky bunch blending a mixed bag of instrumentation and obscure influences so recklessly. guest vocals are provided by san francisco post-punk hero jorge socarras (vocalist of indoor life and songwriter for patrick cowley). in case that wasnt enough, flip her over for the genius remix by andrew weatherall, a bonafide glam stomper that slaps you across the face with a fuzzy bassline and greaseball guitar chords. pure class.

after a handful of smashing remixes and compilation features on nang records, lusty zanzibar returns to the fold with a cracking solo effort named the >the feeling ep.< title track is a spaced out exercise in immersive square-wave programming, reminiscent of the pre-internet computer gaming age when colours were 8-bit and vivid, and soundtracks were hyper-colour opuses. the complex synth work is underpinned by a driving beat with ethereal vocal wisps and crystalline pads. nice. the first of three remixes for >the feeling< comes from ilya santana, with his >celestial version<, and celestial it is indeed! a picturesque scene is set, the rhythm is wound back and a super laid back vibe allows the vocal line >remember how you are feeling< to sit more purposefully in the mix, alongside the tip-toeing bass line and often euphoric chords. up next comes the max essa dub version, introducing some arp-synth subtleties, replacing the main vocal hook to great effect. to finish we have a mix from fear of theydon who brings a touch of arpeggiated femininity and tasteful woodblock percussion to the table. its a fulfilling yet sultry up-beat journey.

a thick slice of deep analogue house from the crew @ machine age in pittsburgh follows their well received debut on uzuri. 4/4 machine funk with more than a touch of kraftwerk / moroder synth burbling. hard screened jackets.

torb is fabien & julien torb. two french guys from the already mytical motorbass recording studio of paris. julien is a new engineer, my faithfull and beloved assistant. fabien is building modular synths and repairing our lovely pultecs and emts in the attic. the day fabien finished the tt1 (torb technologie number one) their love of francesco farfa and their pure techno ethic collided into some magical music. we at cassius records are so proud to put their beautiful sound out. in those days of maximal and minimal war, in those days where real house music seems to attract people again on the floor their techno is a bless and a bliss. reminding me of my rave age, when the all of paris was going to mozinor to dance to francesco farfa, armando, yayo or the ur guys until the break of dawn, i couldnt resist to ask them to grant us with a splendid ep : mars premier. i have nothing really to say more than that, and those who know me will understand that this thing is serious. peace and happiness zdar

delta is a symbolic and poetic place, the space, where the flow, the river enters the ocean or the sea. the delta gives the feeling of the rhythm. the delta is the supreme destination. delta refers to hanging out in the street in a city (in the district, for example). essential in the delta is the spirit of conscious spontaneity, collaborations with artists, instant moves, jam sessions, highs and the lows, the right thing, night, stories to tell and other basic habits from the primordial age of music. the delta provides one with a primal style for the music. it is the place where music begins. recorded in moscow, nikolina gora, russia and in berlin, germany and mixed by daniel maloso in barcelona.

out 26th of sept. mikkel metals new tartelet ep travels deep into the spectral voids of space. empyrean pads and raw drums reverberate in our ear meatus on cassini -soft kicks with shrill claps and a prodding bassline bringing back memories of mikkel metals earlier dubby excursions. phasing, relentless, and a favourite in the early hours of both the night and morning, cassini has everything needed to become a mainstay for all djs brave enough to venture beyond our known realms. mazurski, a galaxy of beaming details and radiant synthlines colour it deep, while the echoes of light gone by envelops the transient listener. following on the same side is the dub version (vinyl only), outlined by a scrapping kick, filtering sequences of sonic waveforms and abraded sub-basslines. all this rough beauty is fully submerged in a crystal pond of levitating strings and sparkling monotones. these cuts will transport you beyond, both in front of properly charged sound systems and laptop-powered earphones. referencing both the recently resurrected new age wave and the analogue power of london, mikkel metal has brought a completely new dimension to the tartelet universe, the quality is undeniable, the construction timeless and the foot-tapping ensured, so get floating.

its been two years since pawas gupta contributed an enchanting remix on sirions first vinyl release. constant communication and cooperation lead to this all in all accomplished project called >huis huis ep<. pawas productions start off smooth and impress with delightful elements and perpetual dynamic. the development of each track is rarely predictable. tempting the act of prolonged anticipation is a delicate one and leads further and further into remote realms. carried into the sec repetitive parts by finely tuned synth-boosts makes us realize the force briefly before being caught up in the hypnotic sounds again. propelling deep house with a pinch of funk and a touch of detroit - the classic yet brilliant pawas style! moon harbours chris lattner needs no long introductions. releases on nrk, einmaleins, fear of flying and luna records speak for themselves, are proof of a successful and active time. the dry yet truly ideal base frame for subtle but succinct modules for this remix is its effective substance. the static sub bass, fulminate and with an enormous thrust, is reminiscent of the miami bass age - virtuous modulations, the very complexion of mr lattner. he remains true to himself, we like!

moving through the worm hole, a track materializes at each stop offering emotive tunes that pull at your senses. alexander shows off his skills as you travel into four different universes encompassed within four house yet techno musical adventures. white rhino (deep down beat down) - begins the journey with an up tempo banger in which the bass syncopates ever so nicely. a message about the white rhino insues quickly and more synths come to take you on a space age trip. transcend - smooth synth line with a deep kick, leads us to gritty yet soft pads that build and build as vision of stars are created by waveforms. deep within - bassline and melodies blare out as the beat pulsates, and out of no where a voice comes up from deep within the darkness. the abyss - ending the journey is a super deep tunes that relaxes your mind, as you go deeper and deeper with the bassline, chords, and vocals…

get ready for a new exciting collaborative project on electric deluxe! >workshops< is a new experimental series of releases by phil kieran and jochem paap (aka speedy j). the idea behind this project is to explore the recording techniques used in the middle of the 20th century and dating right back to the mid 1950s. famous inspirational places like bbc radiophonic workshops in england and philips lab in holland have seen some of the most innovative production techniques, experimenting with the first use of stereo, modular synths, found sounds and reel to reel tapes. the end result was always something space age and promisingly futuristic and still to this day fresh sounding, crisp and exciting. phil kieran and jochem paap have decided to use this inspiration to effortlessly accomplish marrying the past, present and future in an innovative mix of old ideas with new.

for alec koone, the 20 year old, pennsylvania resident, who was 19 and based in new york at the time of his first release, >wander / wonder< is a coming of age album that sees him expand upon the unique sound that attracted him so much attention to begin with. in koone s own words: it s an open ended album, and i think individuals should make their own meaning of it so that it is something actually real to them. it s not classical music, but in the tradition of a classical work like a bach cello suite, i see it as more of a whole musical piece with themes/motifs/ideas reoccurring throughout, connecting the tracks together as opposed to simply being a collection of songs that sit next to each other in isolation. it s also an album that should be listened to loudly. wander / wonder is a mysterious and genuinely haunting record that seems to exist in a world all of it s own making, balanced between the ecstatic wonder referenced in the title and something altogether more indefinable and uncertain of itself, like shards of light flickering through a blanket of fog, and even though wander / wonder is undeniably an electronic album, it feels strangely organic, rooted in nature, synthetic textures and distorted voices harmonizing with an ever present oceanic shimmer. wander / wonder was written and produced by alec koone in new york and pennsylvania. mixed by alec koone and sam haar (member of blondes) in new york city.

everything is in solution. no more here, no more when - the sounds loosing their way while creating something new and mysterious. waterkristallen is a transparent and absolute haunting track from arjuna schiks which will be released on einmusika records at the end of july. its a deep and tech influenced number with dizzying atmospheric parts and a lot of power on the other sight - its a dancefloor-number detached from the seasons. arjuna schiks was inspired by new age, meditation and world music, a hippie-child from amsterdam - that is what you can also hear in his productions one more day and my cup of tea. they are so strong and free - good vibes for your soul and precious diamonds for the clubs. once again einmusik is preparing the stage for a young and great producer and it is not supposed to be a short-time collab.

berlin imprint items & things reintroduced itself earlier this year with madatos epic ep speak of the she devil. now the labels trio of techno connoisseurs - marc houle, magda and troy pierce - entrust their imprint to italian up-and-comer danny benedettini. danny caught the production bug at an early age, and his taste for the old school can be heard in the throwback feel of tell me quietly. its a retro-tinged trip through modern dance floor sounds, with slickly executed beats and tight arrangements

ok … the sad truth is we have been searching for this dat close to 6 years since rabbit in the moons david christophere and san diego native sotero finished the project. both mixes were done around winter 95 / 96. despite excitement around the label at the time, eventually the tracks fell to the wayside under the age-old excuse of >figuring out what to do with them<. meanwhile, knowing a good thing when he heard it, three made a dat copy and cut some actetates to play out. they made their way around a good portion of the earth via himself, some friends and one west coast dj who boldly vowed to just put it out on his own --- off the slate --- if we didnt get our act together. fortunately he didnt, but neither did we because both david and three misplaced the dat copies and sotero never had one!
