as the rumors tell, this obscure piece of music was arranged by three acquaintances, who, by mere coincidence, formed a spontaneous, poly-toxic think tank one marvellous sunday morning, celebrating the beauty of old house music, while at the same time mocking the somehow cheap and predictable functionality of the four to the floor sound design. to honor the inspirational value of situations like these, the decision was made to share the result with a bigger audience. as a meta text, the lyrics form a tongue in cheek comment on nostalgic good old days aesthetics, and are simultaneously, and quite paradoxically, reminiscent of the utopian and transgressive vision of early house and techno music. if there is anything that we can retrieve from this vision today, it is the encouragement to create funny, pleasant and playful situations for ourselves and the like-minded, escaping the seriousness and boredom of the professionalized party and music business. and this is exactly the spirit, which is materialized on this piece of wax.

mutual musik is back on deck: the label, which for the time being is based in berlin and munich, – kicks off its third ep with liell. liell stands for >liebe ist ein leises lied< (love is a quiet song) and the four new tracks from label captain johannes beck reveal techno from a poetic and fragile aspect. beck’s sophisticated compositions are characterized by slowly evolving arcs of suspense, simultaneously careful and powerful piano cues, and basses which delve into the innermost realms. the tracks are created for the club but go beyond musical fads and count on a timeless style
autumn days are coming quite near and with >jahreszwei< – an ambient tape by berlin based artist the marx trukker – we deliver the soundtrack for that more thoughtful time of the year. as the 4-track ep is put together chronological (starting with the track that was produced last), the a-side is more dark and dusty (roughly produced beginning of autumn with an electric bass, an old portastudio and loads of forbidden recording-techniques) while the b-side shines a bit brighter and lighter (produced digital end of summer, concentrating on the dave smith evolver synthesizer only). so take a walk through a forest next to you and enjoy the beautiful autumn-nature while having >jahreszwei< on your ears!

after 21 releases and covering most areas of house its time to introduce anaxander and present a new sound to the ever growing local talk catalogue. the a side antionette is a perfect electronic influenced body-locking flavored track, an organ alongside a bouncing bass and a rhythmic feel is sometimes all you need to get moving ! its the b-side that really take things to the next level. anaxander both puts his own clever stamp on these two tracks and delivers acid in the old, vintage sense that owes more to the raw and unpolished club tracks played by ron hardy at music box than to the old school house vibes you have expected from local talk. both cat feeding and i want you now are two tracks of a new era of local talk. innovating, futuristic and original produced electronic analogue funk for 2012

call it whatever you want. we think of it simply as techno music. deep, raw, mystical and industrialesque music that makes you think about your desires and gives you the illusion of clearing away time and space. having lived in almost all corners of the world, it took nothing more than finding themselves in berlin, a dose of random chance and a barside conversation for irakli and yacoub to figure out they had similar views about music - and so, i/y was born. i/y 001 is a three track intense journey into the depths of techno.

anticon founder and instrumental rap innovator alias is reborn with fever dream, his sixth full-length for the label. alias acclaimed 2008 lp resurgam represented a culmination of the sound he had been chasing the previous five years -- a bewitchingly blue combination of icy atmosphere, haunted melodies and hard drums. he cleansed his palate with 2010s fallen house, sunken city, the modern boom-bap masterpiece he produced for emcee b. dolan, and when it came time to return to the alias oeuvre, he was ready for a reboot.

first 500 copies with a2 poster packaged in a gatefold cover!!!! the thunder from thuringia, genosse from gera, mr. minimal samba, the man that goes by many names is here to present to us his very first lp on none other than his solo action vakant home. about 2 years in the making, studio 10 takes mathias kadens life-long work as dj and producer, world wide tours, twenty something years of listening and thinking, machines and people, wraps a bow around it all, and delivers it with roses dipped in chocolate. always taking his time with production, mathias focus on quality over quality continues to pay dividends no matter the state of the economy. unique in many ways, studio 10 was also unique for the producer himself. never before has mathias incorporated into his music so much hardware, field recordings, messages, and invited friends and orchestral musicians to collaborate
taiki and nulight or to their friends rowan harrington and erka chinbayer have both been djing/producing for many years both in very different circles. taikis career started back in 2008 under his old alias name site 1 who was a house/electro producer. they joined forces and started working together in 2011 which now seems like a lifetime ago considering on what they have achieved in such a short time. when they first started out working together they were making a lot of dubstep, house and electro influenced bass music as we call it now. being heavily into garage, house and electronic dance music there sound heavily progressed across the spectrum of dance music. taiki and nulight released their first ep in february 2012 on subway recordings which gained a lot of support from the likes of mistajam, crookers, herve zinc, redlight, foamo, roska, benga, skream, adam f, hatcha, n type and more. gaining them a lot of frequent airtime on bbc radio 1, 1xtra, kiss 100 and rinse fm. now nearly a year and a half since they have joined forces, they have received massive support from some of the most respected djs out there not to mention air time nearly every week on radio 1 and kiss 100. with their next release on the horizon and due to drop december time 2012 on bengas very well respected label benga beats there is so much more that you will see from these boys and so much new material to hear.
luc who? marianni? this reclusive french composer paved the underground music history with a handful of mind-blowing lps but still managed to surprisingly fall under the radar. even the experts seem to have forgotten about him when there were clues all over the place! it is true luc marianni didnt belong to no family but his own, with his constant work-in-progress through the gathering of friends and the odd random musical chance meeting.
it is therefore with great pleasure that we offer for the first time in decades the scarce remaining stock of original copies from his first and last vinyls, hoping to turn some heads along the release of the remix ep on ddd records: ddd-lmr-t01 with remixes of jared wlison (detroit), dam mantle (glasgow) and nukubus (rotterdam).

DEATH BY MISADVENTURE - INTERPRETATIONS PART 2 (CLEAR VINYL)
coloured 12 Inch 20.12.12
next round for chymeras >death by misadventure< interpretations. this time, both remixes were made for >an island in space<, definitely one of the highlight tracks of the album. on side a, uncanny valleys jacob korn, who just released his debut longplayer >you&me<, turns the tune into an intoxicating hymn somewhere between house and techno. catchy, and with a wonderfully positive atmosphere, the track is pure bliss. on the b, dutch techno veteran orlando voorn delivers a piece of properly driving melodic techno. several melodies entangle to one big sound collage. there is no real beginning or end, like a neverending jam. a very unique track and so much more than a useful tool...
is it balearic hit their late 20s with another superb release - this time craig bratley steps up with analogue dreams. craig has earnt quite a reputation from only a handful of releases, including the weatherall favourite and classic cut >birdshell< on instruments of rapture. on analgue dreams, craig lays down a gently evolving, acid tinged piano slow burner, all mood and melody. first up on the remix we have the ever essential bonar bradberry who amps things up and takes a clonking bass riff down the disco for a real good time. on the flip crimea x pare the musical elements right down and build an epic remix from the raw ingredients, employing live percussion and shimmering synths. finally joes bakery dial down the tempo and incorporate some deft acoustic guitar and gentle moodswings alongside the musical elements of the original.
