430 west continues to celebrate its 20-year history, allowing two more octave one classics to get the remix treatment from some of the burden brothers favourite artists. for the latest instalment, swedens cari lekebusch takes on >love and hate< originally released on octave ones >off the grid ep< on berlins seminal tresor records. 2nd remix comes from vince watson

for the latest instalment, swedens cari lekebusch takes on love and hate originally released on octave ones off the grid ep on berlins seminal tresor records. which takes us neatly on to another tresor (and kanzleramt) artist, berlin resident alexander kowalski who restyles i need release. featuring vocals from ann saunderson, it was the first release taken from octave ones summers on jupiter album.

the old stager and stuttgart-representative of the minimalistic house and techno scene vladimir corbin and his ally peddy collaborate on mos ferry number 55. the icing on the cake is the label owners appearance as remix producer! >sinner city (feat. sackjo22)< is a variable and very synthetic techhouse track with a good deal of detroit – a big-time rave tune that should be fitting in any setting from intimate clubs to big festivals. no hesitation! >the grid< comes with a driving, beautiful, rambling stab. an abused tr909 makes this one groove as hell! in conclusion dapayk gets his hands on >sinner city< and gives the track his very special personal note, a dash of warm kick-drum and a hand full of >hands up< – you know the deal!

holmby hills two smooth n ruff house tracks and two hip hop-jazz encores turn this record into a testimony for the state of mind of formresonance. when soul is melted together into an off the grid house track, it is not that far-fetched that both men have shared their music ever since tapes existed. engin oeztuerk, one half of here today, which came out on philpot and buzzin fly and block barley (who already has released two albums on hong kong records and we aint music) are both tinkering in search of music to dance to. they wickedly transform their musical masters ideas into something extraordinary sounding. an off-the-grid team

new chain is the debut long-player from new york s small black. richly coloured and thickly layered, it is an absorbing, eclectic and obsessive body of work. the brooklyn group have succeeded in melting together locked and popped drum-shudder, gauzy spirographic synths and subtly contagious, half-remembered melody into ebullient bursts of evocative, subliminal and thoroughly modern pop. the songs are equally informed by the rhythmic bounce and stylistic swagger of more left-leaning contemporary radio rap and r n b as it is the submerged kaleidoscopic swirl of the early 4ad dream factory.

we lost track of rocco branco nearly 5 years ago. no >goodbye<, nothing, he simply vanished off the grid. a few days ago, mr. branco staggered into the hirsch camp, smelling of sex and jaegermeister, no explanation. no apologies. rocco simply handed over two tracks, turned around, and walked away... diamant captures the sex of a one-night stand. a metaphysical launch pad of selfindulgence. no compromises, purely physical, firm and purposeful – precisely how we like our techno. gibbon depicts sex with a lover – reminiscent of gratifications past. familiar, nubile and polished a mastered motion of lustful appetite. in roccos return, we find a record of lifes carnal moments. good hunting!

from out of a clear blue sky comes ?my electric family?, the second full-length and third all-round release from new zealand?s bachelorette. bachelorette?s music beams to us through a universe of unconquered pop music, where long beams of sunlight extend to infinity, and blue moons rise wistfully in the deep purple expanse. she stands in the cradle of modern songwriting, that of psychedelic pop music. the sense of infinite possibility felt in those songs, the desire to manipulate a collective sensation to become anything at all, informs bachelorette?s journey. bachelorette?s song structures are traditionally examinations of love and longing, the exploration of self versus self and in relation to the surrounding, silent universe. the songs of ?my electric family? emphasize a particular fascination: the meeting of man and machine. ?my electric family? is an arresting development in the world of sweet pop music.

first single of brians album, which will be released in february 2009. saysay features justine electra and comes with a great mymy remix. b1 and b2 tracks are featuring brians producion with the voices of raz ohara and jake the rapper. not to be missed!

phat heavy phunkin tech trax

great deep and hi tech funk influenced minimal tunes !!

if top of the range minimalism with a side order of funk included is what floats your boat then this new ep could well be just the job. the inner and outer space ep follows hot on the heels of the two well received previous releases the hokarangen space project ep and diamondtrack. innocence features the menacing vocals of lucien etori to deliver a minimalist epic, if thats possible. certainly minimalism plus menace equals one damn fine track.

the legendary man parrish is all set to return after a 20 year gap on dozer with what can only be described as the most influential record of the 80s hip hop bebop which has everyone from missy elliott to busta rhymes claiming to be a major influence on their career. the release of hip hop bebop comes with some pretty impressive remixes from man parrish himself, paul jackson, albert cabrera, the grid & solitaire!

kuf create emotion-laden dialogues across layers of time and dimensions of sound. voices recorded in private are chopped up and brought out center-stage to sing with beats hammered out right here and now. glowing synths push forward. basslines rise to grab the melodic role of a track while a vowel is truncated and locked into a grid, driving the rhythm. voices move within the frame of a sample, performed by hands pushing keys, guided by the ear, immersed in a trio sessions deep flowÉ a vortex of quirky hands, responsive ears and glowing circuits. since thomas a. edison first recorded the human voice in 1877, the recording arts have changed music forever. musicians have explored the endless possibilities of bouncing their input onto layers of tape, off the walls of an echo chamber or the circuitry of electronic helpers - technology that modulates, spatializes, shifts, divides or multiplies the work of human hands and mouths. an era of sampling offered a cubistic analysis of the recorded past and djs took dancers onto intricately fractured time travels. this is the historic foundation that kuf keep probing. just like the sampler and the dj before them, they found new ways to re-allocate where machine and man stand when making music together. most importantly, they turn the resulting friction into sparkling bursts of energy. Ôuniverse digs deeper into the android vocal chords. the album offers sweeping melodies, different beats and persistent bass. immerse in the intimacy of the voices, probably recorded in trains, backstage areas and at late night private parties during berlin lichtenberg warehouse rehearsals. by striking the keys, kuf squeeze out and serve up all the soul accumulated in those savory phonetic shreds.
