ben gomori s monologues records brings two of its most popular releases to vinyl after a long wait. laurence guy s les mur ep signalled the start of a great run for the london producer, with releases following on church, dirt crew recordings and fort romeau s cin cin. the title track is a graceful, deep piano roller, while sunlite goes into chuggier, synthier territory.

midgar welcomes the bordeaux based von grall delivering four dense, immersive cuts. first of the list, *a secant line*, is an acidic and powerful mantra, opening the gates of sonic virtuality. in the second track, *the slope*, fast paced rhythmics and cold ambiances bring some severity to the record. on the bside, the melodic and slightly dreamy excursion *apply the definition*, while *limit value* close the record with a solemn concoction of offbeats drums and mechanic nightbirds.

a side : klaaar when you hear about klaaar, you�d probably assume it has something to do with samples and colourful grooves. on a side, klaaar, that has featured on all the previous label releases, is playing with funky vocal cuts on « contemplative action », and spoken words on « definition is », with heart warming beats on each track. b side : ortellaknown especially for his prim-and- proper take on dirty deep house with releases on rutilance and his own imprint mad in lyon, ortella have been delivering consistently great levels of house, and strikes once again on the b-side with his very special rough and deep sound signature. track titles « shut up and listen to deep house » and « bigmalyon » says it all. shaped for the floor

on the inner-rims, psyk slows down the pace with �stigma� and �lowdown�, introducing some industrial tones to his techno equation.

nelistening back, �interlude� will feel like the perfect opening to �skylax�. a jazzy encore crawls in, morphing into a skippy hip-hop instrumental with jason�s signature flourishes all over it. aptly named as it is, this is the breathing space between whatever came before in your day, and the eleven deep house gems that are to follow. speaking of, �the love� will have you gripped from the first bar. it glides the listener in, then subtly drops that signature, tightly-tuned bassline of jason�s and continues onto soulful vocals from there. �old dayz� touches on a bit of a nostalgic note. the spoken vox cuts harken back to 90s hip-hop joints, playing over a looped latin sample-led beat. from there, �rawkicks 2� shows jason�s rough and ready sampling style in action. a seemingly simple track, but one which has that special something which guarantees to keep people on the floor moving for its duration. �cut b� contrasts this nicely, being a much cleaner production with tight drum programming and synth work. that said, it still has the classic jg atmosphere we love. closing out the first half of the album, �definition� slows the pace ever so slightly, with its eternal pad structure that builds up the track�s momentum into something very mellow and deep.bringing in the second half of �skylax�, �john blue� takes things back a notch further. a deeper tune, yet one that shows off an uncharacteristically punchy bass hit from jason. �last night� is a track more reminiscent of jason�s first lost cuts ep on wax classic, sounding as if it had been freshly taken off an old tape with its sample-led beat and background hiss. the last four tracks of the album see a return to the �mastercuts� and �lovedits� series which fans will recognize from the �lost cuts� records, with �lovedits 7� and �mastercut 5� respectively. the former is a laid back female vocal edit with the entire suite of signature jg touches while the latter is a garage house hit more crafted for the club. �bb� brings the album to a close, twisting a disco/funksample over a pallet of drums and effects for the near six-minute duration of the track.all in all, this is the perfect follow up to jason�s debut album �313.4.ever�, with tracks for both the club and home listening. if you happened to miss the first album back in 2012, don�t forget that now you have the chance to grab it in a special double pack with �skylax� on cd!so, needless to say, this timeless record is a must purchase for all collectors and djs out there

we are back in the hauptstadt (berlin capital) with the fifth installment of the * stil vor talent berlin* compilation series, which brings forth a group of old and new faces, who exclusively contributed unreleased tracks, gathered under the umbrella of one of berlins most iconic spots. frankfurter tor is the gateway to one of our favourite districts: good old friedrichshain. loud, left and a little dirty, it houses some of the cityÕs best clubs, markets and musicians, oliver koletzki included. its two towers stand as metaphorical guards to an area that has plenty to offer and asks for little in return, instantly making it feel like home. as always, music is the common denominator and oliver koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while chrisse kunst renders the visuals.

over the years, berlin has been cited as oliver koletzkis main point of reference and, more importantly, his endless source of inspiration. his albums gro§stadtm�rchen and gro§stadtm�rchen 2 are wholehearted tributes of the german capital, as its importance is continuously hinted and charted. friedrichshain, one of berlins vibrant districts, has always held a special place in olivers heart. this is where he started out when he first moved to the city, and this is where he lives now. kreuzbergs wall paintings adorn stil vor talent s cover sleeves and host their headquarters. there are little to no corners in the city that havent brought a spark of inspiration into the mix. the schneeweiss compilation series, now at its eigth installment, is built as a form of tribute to all these particles, tied in together into a series of care

liebe leser, fr�her war alles ... fr�her. bevor der denkmalschutz und die alterszipperlein f�r uns zu beherrschenden themen werden, haben wir letzten oktober mit allerhand g�sten und weggef�hrten f�r drei abende im hamburger mehr! theater am gro§markt r�ckw�rts geguckt. mit dj exel. pauly (deine freunde), sven regener (zatopek, element of crime), boy, fatoni, dj rabauke (eins zwo), der tobi & das bo (5 sterne deluxe) blickten wir zur�ck in eine versunkene welt der jahre zwischen 1992 und 2000. damals, als wir lernten auf den b�hnenbrettern nicht auszurutschen (fragt mal boris!), am mikrophon nicht zu kapseln und unbeschriebene landkarten der hiesigen rap music vollzukritzeln ... klaro, die music ham wir direkt digital gespeichert, ein paar minikameras liefen mit w�hrend der show und im garderobenkeller, anl�sslich von gespr�chen �ber fr�her. unser plan: die herumfliegenden einzelteile zu einem sch�nen souvenir aus sound & vision zusammenzuklotten - f�r alle, die mit uns waren und die unerlaubt fehlenden schw�nzer. g�nnt euch (das)! - fettes brot

the third instalment of the stil vor talent berlin compilation series brings forth a new gang of carefully selected artists, gathered under the umbrella of another underground berlin hotspot. kottbusser tor is undoubtedly the beating heart of kreuzberg, unashamedly pulsating 24/7 with the good, the bad and the ugly. theres no place quite like it, thanks to its raw charme. as always, music is the common denominator and oliver koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while chrisse kunst renders the visual.

over the course of the past ten years, stil vor talent has striven to support emerging young artists, to continuously broaden and redefine its sound, and, ultimately, to create lasting memories, both on and off the dance floor. the dance floor is the place where we gather to leave the worries of our everyday lives behind, and, for those few moments, form a bond, which transcends the final track of the night. a bond between each other between the artist and the dancer between ourselves and the music. on 10 years stil vor talent we celebrate this bond and say thank you.
