machines will fail us: those are the unsettling first words of this much expected new episode of the polar inertia odyssey. starting with this ode to machinery, the tale plunges suddenly in a stark apocalyptic scenario. along the 3:14? of the track kinematic optics, this mysterious polar inertia eventually begins to materialize and reveal more of its true essence. same might be said about this double ep, consisting of almost 75 minutes of music.

one of the uks most enigmatic bootleg labels returns for its fourth installment of dancefloor bombs and feel good hits. following the trail blazed by early bootleg pioneers such as ron hardy and john morales, boogiefuturo presents two instant classics for the edits hall of fame. * give me some emotion* features an expertly amped-up sample of a particularly well-known female vocalist (we don’t want to give too much away now). jamie bull’s edit respectfully takes the track into the 21st century, with solid, punchy drums and big room snare reverbs to support the original boogie funk synth lines and staccato guitars. sing along vocals and catchy hooks make this a fine addition to any vinyl junkie’s record bag. ‘lovin’ spree’ continues the boogifuturo tradition of tasteful edits. neil diablo loops an infectious guitar hook with the addition of low growling synths and rhodes keys, to build the track into a crescendo timeless disco strings, chant-along vocals and killer sax solos. an underground classic on the disco scene but never reaching the heights of commercial success, diablo presents an edit to give this forgotten record new life. boogiefuturo is vinyl only and strictly underground, this won’t be played out by everyone – this one is for the purists, the vinyl addicts, the one’s that reminisce over the days when the white label ruled…

in this second acid act, the artists xerosorex and sour, lead us in one of the place that much have characterized the scene of the freeparty: the abandoned plant. in this foundry, between production waste, tangled sheets and shrubs risen between cement, theatmosphere is dark and enthralling. night has fallen for a long and strobe slow down even more movements, but the groove is pressing and acid lines steal minds.

emerging deep from within the depths of the brooklyn underground. upsetting keys seeks to inform, to educate and inundate. this time they are armed with emotional, unknown electronic structures that originated back in the late 90s. the audio sculptures presented on this release specifically pass somewhere in a shape between total art form and other, much more subliminal and subdued opaque constructs. reade truth, iconic producer of planet e and sonic groove fame, rewinds all the way back to his first imprint, reintroducing to the public to the elusive and oft hyped path records.

this second release on dialegestai is our homage to romanian minimal house and techno music. one track by a household name, the other by the equally talented - but still very unknown - vlad radu. in our humble opinion both tracks have a certain unique quality and vibe to them. the question minimal and trippy, the answer haunting and mysterious :) we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

simple things is a love song about the end of love and a new beginning. simple things are those that separate the real, the true, and everything else. simple things is about that love that we all let go of, that we lose, and from which we learn so much about ourselves. because love always happens for the best. god hates us all is a digital extra that takes us to the dance floor as a place for rebirth, where the music heals us and returns life to us and to the celebration that it is.

following toju kaes critically acclaimed debut *villa/11 rooms*, the young vienna-based producer offers us with his new album *unfold* an outstanding collection of tracks that contrary to the detail-loving beautifully arranged first output shows a distinct rougher and downscaled side of his music. ranging between the sticky crowded dancefloor and the safe haven of ambient roots it hints at, the album, released through swiss label neopren records, still unfolds its own room of both subtlety and drive as well as a much-needed sense of buoyancy and a certain impression of forward movement. with a new and unexpected feeling for roughness and spontaneity and some great avant-garde moments (buscheli), unfold is a marked progression, both in terms of composing and producing, in the career of the artist.

‘psych , the long-awaited freaks album released in 2014 gets a re-release in 2015 with some brand new remixes. freaks, a musical partnership between luke solomon and justin harris that s spanned twenty years and includes the music for freaks label, four albums, and an avalanche of singles on the likes of playhouse and hot creations to crosstown rebels, news and international deejay gigolos. the album was released to rave reviews and featured a much awaited gathering of material from the late 00s onwards, including collaborations with robert owens, stella attar and diz washington. this 12- includes interpretations from dave aju, jamie 3:26 and freaks. for over a decade, san francisco innovator and a vital part of circus company, dave aju has been producing and performing his unique brand of electronic dance music, a consistently fresh and expressive sound. his remix of situations makes no exception, a strong piece of jacking house music with bubbling sub bass, strong raw percussive beats, and an effective use of diz vocals and the flute sound. on the b side misfits is reworked by chicago s master jamie 3:26 who turns the tune into an acid house monster and by freaks themselves who extend their original version for dance floor action. a strong package…and more to come !

on the first release for mannella on his own imprint, the ice is broken by generous strings and subdued synths. revisiting “space candyman” with his distinctive stamp, marieu blows up every emotion in a swirl of high spirited techno. the b side displays all the intensity of this release, starting by the pure beat of the original mix. lucretio s remix is a mighty vision of “letters from mars” with a dogged bustle of reverberated drums and filtered chords. consider a tree for a moment: we just see and enjoy its beauty, but it must develop its roots under the ground to bloom all its beauty and grows up strong. in much the same way, jt series sinks his particular sound in a ground covered music grove. so, the fruits of our tree, are a collection of sounds thought out of the box. mannella, that runs this berlin based label, never stop explores the vast world ingrained in his machines. a sensorial techno contaminated by the most varied influences.

played by vorres (vrrs), kixnare, natan h, lumitecc, noizar (wicked bass), cecil (artfuldivision), steve murphy
for his comeback release on ukraine s wicked bass label, the gloomy producer hiding behind the alias raw m.t. presents another set of trippy, yet noticeably simplified masterpieces of 90 s e-werk informed analog techno. falling into nowhere with its melancholic xylo drops and twin peaks infused pads takes us to a setting of descending sadness, while random peak leads and swinging hats on abductions and essense , in contrast, contribute to a much more dancefloor-friendly and optimistic picture. three fine cuts that will work both at peak and afterparty time.

as the sun rises a little higher in the sky, above machine emerge from their winter hibernation with the first fruits of their impeccably assembled new release schedule. jonny nash takes on jose manuel s summer wind and, much like the superb melody as truth releases he s penned, sets out a widescreen canvas of tone and melody, as piano and vocal punctuate the sonic plain. twisted tongue take on maricopa s recently unveilied we could maybe feat. nicola kramer. and the result sounds like loose ends operating as in-house band at a speakeasy orbiting a distant nebula the b side has seconds another day beautifully reconfigured for sunrise moments by slo, while b2 has an original slo moment bombora which, much like it s namesake is a gentle balearic breaker washing over the sonic reef... bona fide bottled sunshine people - above machine are back !

quickly becoming one to watch in the techno circles, john shima is making waves with his fresh approach to that classic detroit sound. his contribution for boe is nothing short of a stunning representation of underground electronic music. prototype is a sonic ode to industry: blueprinted in the motor city and forged in sheffield. it s heads down for the dance floor with shimmering metallic overtones and a side order of robot jack. ancient skies points more towards chicago stylings capturing the melancholy party vibe of early cajual records with crystal clear production skills and neat arrangements. transducer is groovy experimental techno that could have easily sat on the much-revered objet d art. it s electronic music that will stand the test of time. rounding off the ep in fine style is true distance. a stunning ambient piece with deep pads and swirling melodies that complement and round of the ep perfectly.

for some it might be kraftwerk, but for me, my favourite electronic pioneers are probably australias severed heads. they were so far ahead of the game that they had to invent a lot of the technology they used. inspired, playful, never boring and always sonically brilliant they pushed at the frontiers of electronic music more than most. by the late 80s they were pursuing a slightly more polished course and made a series of records that had the potential to reach a much larger audience. possibly because of their name they never quite managed that, but they had several big club hits, the dub versions of which crossed over into the nascent house scene. i am honoured that i am able to make the dubs of those three 12 inches from 1988 - 1990 available again.

nsdos is back with some new toys from outer space - on this ep we hear six figments of his twisted imagination, caught live .... on this very dense and captivating ep, kirikoo des goes back to the 90 s with some cut up electronica flair (-christine +2-, -dona j haraway-) reminiscing oval s work or some experimental shake shakir tunes. the longest tracks though feels closer to a club from the future with some eerie pads (-fa-) and liquid rhythms patterns typical of the nsdos touch we love (-yuko-). overall this ep is a much cerebral effort and yet still keeps a vibrant and gorgeous organic side to it. demanding the full attention of the listener, the reward in the end is a total bliss taking us in a deep dimension. -space is the place- as the master sun ra once said

now living in warsaw, donnell knox was well known, along with black nation s jay denham for forging a tough, distinct kalamazoo techno sound in the 90s. his label, sonic mind, put out some very coveted, underground wax that still sounds unique, extra rugged, and fresh. well d-knox is now on a bit of a comeback mission it seems, with some really inspiring new material, and “africa calling”. the first version, created to donnell’s much loved “spirit man” alias, is a soulful trek through layers of pads and emotive synth work. the simple, but uplifting, vocal snippet really gives it an organic and spiritual feel, the tempo is driving and quick, but the overall vibe is laid back and deep. remixes come from the likes of brooklyn based titonton duvante, who maximizes a synth pattern to a form a beautiful, reaching, version, while canada’a rennie foster channels his futago traxx style to present a full on tribal, drum based mix with added vocal pieces. also, detroit transplant, now living in canada as well, j garrett goes in with a very emotional, warm, string laden take. the ep is capped off with another version from donnell that could stand as it’s own track really, a totally different, but equally as strong, version featuring a driving baseline and detroit style string vamps. a really nice release, worthy of your support, from a well loved veteran of the techno underground.

walk dance talk sing is the seventh album by much-loved crazy p aka danielle moore, jim baron and chris toddy todd.

after the last lessizmore release found san proper and maayan nidam crossing swords for the simmering, jammed-out tones of it was a night like this, now the label turns to another close ally for a slice of discerning, upfront house music. louis mcguire lives many different lives in music, from drumming with indie pop outfit ballet school to playing bass for lo-fi electronica group the waves & us. now though his own solo productions are being noticed in the house and techno world, with this new ep following on from a well-received debut on supply records. the diversity of mcguire’s musical leanings feeds into his distinctive sound, as his own take on stripped down, sensual house music bristles with unconventional energy to make for an unforgettable experience that steps up to the most creative frontiers of dance music. live drum sounds rattle around the mix free from quantized safety, while the melodic tones come on warm and fuzzy, capturing the hazy romance of a late morning session as much as the early part of the evening. it’s apparent that mcguire’s weapon of choice is the mpc, channeling his love of gritty beats in the grand tradition of point g and j. dilla. you can hear the spirit of the most adventurous micro house pioneers in the quirky funk of light hearted, while Óreitha revels in the transcendental qualities of a sustained groove without even a whisper of monotony. even with these unusual qualities the music is resolutely built for the dancefloor, and that mcguire manages to be so creative and so focused in the same beat is reason enough to keep tabs on this multifarious and unpredictable operator.

arriving on phantasy in april 2015, arc is the debut ep from kamera, a singular new artist creating unique and vital electronic music within its own form and context. a four track introduction to an already expansive sound, arc relates as much to the boundary pushing experimentation of the likes of autechre or sabres of paradise as it does to any open minded, contemporary dancefloor.

the 3rd outing from legwork comes from one of our label heads in lance desardi and singer/song writter jesse rennix. this ones been a long time in the making, but the final product is well worth the blood, sweat and tears. with a heavy nod to prescription records and the 1st & 2nd wave detriot pioneers, emotion is the order of the day. not much else to say, other than see for yourself. the heavens await

re-issue of the 1974 compilation *boggie chillun* by blues legend john lee hooker on heavyweight 180 gram double vinyl.

this is the fourth release on the 6-volume surgeon reissues label, srx. originally released on ideal trax in 1995, dynamic tension ep established themes that went on to become central concepts to much of surgeons later work. it also marked a refinement of his sound that lacked none of the intensity of earlier releases.

len faki initiates a new series on figure. a hybrid of picture disc and classic vinyl, 65.5 looks to the future of the label in a bold statement both musically and aesthetically. already well known for his precise works, and with a wealth of remix credits under his name, djs have come to know exactly what they can expect from a len faki production - pure quality and dedication to his art! with other key figure artists expected to contribute to the concept too, we re excited to offer up this beautifully crafted series of collectors items. the classic rattling techno stabs of basic pain procedure are reworked into a storming deep quest for the floor - one for the heads, the original was produced by a certain and much heralded uk duo in their early years of operations… len faki takes the haunting, bare bones of the original and modifies it gracefully, resulting in this high-end reprise. emerging from the hazy echoes of a late 90s rave in the uk, by way of chicago, the classic synth line could be the epitome of a genre that seems to live on timelessly without borders or the need for hype: dub techno spirit 2015!

limited edition of 500 hand numbered copies.

continuing to push that deep, raw house sound chris carrier s adult only label presents a brand new ep from slapfunk affiliate and all round funkateer, larry de kat. larry keeps the grooves rolling in his native holland, where he has close ties with the much respected slapfunk records, along with good friend anil aras. his back catalogue includes another french connection, with the young masters at lazare hoche records. this time he links up with prolific producer chris carrier to give adult only a taste of his funky medicine.
on side a we have ‘diks on gruds’, a gruff dance floor banger with a deadly bassline and ultra crisp hats, which inject a solid energy from start to finish. on the flip another french hero, phil weeks, add his stomping chicago flavour into the mix reworking the track with panache. a is ‘noodlez’, a quirky joint composed of odd sounds wriggling and whirring above a slinky bassline counterposed with choppy percussion. finally, the ep closes out with ‘um?’, a sombre affair which pumps and purrs with minimal composition – subtle effects in the arrangement bounce around the beats, while a mysterious voice creeps in and out of the background. sublime ...

paul cottams ruff draft label enjoyed a great first year in 2014, delivering white-hot material from the man himself, lk and romansoff, amongst others. for the imprints first missive of 2015, cottam has recruited cardiff-based rising star chesus, who previously impressed via releases on local talk, 4 lux and catapult. theres naturally much to admire, from the acid-era electronics, delicate synth strings and shimmering chords of opener orbicular, to the dj gregory-ish stabs, wonky electronics and dense, organic-sounding percussion of wyw. bristol-based producer owain k - best known for his hook-ups with jamie anderson on dessous - lends a hand on let it happen, a rather fine slice of warm, immersive, balearic deep house goodness seemingly inspired by the vangelis classic of the same nam

wow. such limit. very handstamp. much deepness.

highly sought after 12 inch, that has never come out! limited pressing of these white label promos. rumored to be donnie tempo. see discogs for the $69 listing if you want an idea of how much people value this record. dont miss out on these last copies to ever be available.

out-of-print since 1994, this early release from the large music camp (on sub label swing street) has reached cult classic status and forced many a collector to seek out the few remaining rare copies available. much has been said recently about the production team of black ice, this release showcases the reasons why they are so highly praised and have been re-discovered as major influences in the chicago house sound. five tracks here that all feature raw and textured rhythms mixed perfectly with splashes of melody and soul.

for pressure traxx011, we are really pleased to welcome one of our favourite artists to the label. barac first caught our attention as a member of the romanian supergroup noi doi, but he decided to go solo to perfect his vision of the finest electronic music. having already released on some of the coolest record labels and with an ever presence in the record bags of your favourite dj s. it is with much anticipation that we present barac and his first ep on pressure traxx. his verniana ep is due to be released in april 2015 in a record shop near you!

i am very happy and excited to present the new ep by claudia anderson on singular rec., its her second release on the label and its a real pleasure. she cooked a really varied record once again, liquid forms takes place on a1 and its real voodoo here, the effect of this track is very unique, it’s space and deep, surrounded by many little effects that give such a special result, then comes neutral state, a timeless dub & house feeling, very loopy, that reminded me some stl cuts. be one opens the b… i ve been really sensible to its very sexy percussions play and delayed lead, it transports literally during all the length, its very high quality. to end properly this ep, claudia did a superb ambient cut, everybody knows i love ambient and so here i ve been charmed… its a deep, noisy atmospheric track that close the all perfectly, with simple little percussions that come and go, just what it takes… its a confirmation of all the good i thought about claudias talent, a very subtle, deep and charming record, and i hope you will like it as much as i do! marcelus.

dj haus much hyped release of 2014 gets a repress backed with remixes from palace & arun verone!

almost a year after their best-selling second ep, the anonymous bandits crumbs return to the fray, with another perfectly planned and executed smash & grab although delivering a mysterious & scantily clad 12- is hardly a novel concept these days, it does concentrate the mind (and feet) on the music more than the brand it s undercover time again, and we re sworn to secrecy, of course...but two of the regular collaborators have engaged in a serious bit of one upmanship having landed this diverse haul, let s take a look inside as we move from a completely overhauled musicbox classic, flipped and re-pitched for 21st century floors. followed up by a totally irresistible modern afro-disco workout with more than a few sonic surprises thrown in turn over for a lost, cosmic gem with no end of additional sparkle, coupled with a a twice-baked & loose jointed rhythm and bass workout that really slams. a dj s delight, then, to be mixed up or played raw this one will be gone in the blink of an eye, but treasured for much longer

years ago and aided by his older brother, the maghreban used to listen to a london pirate called green apple. he very much enjoyed these sounds. whilst not identical to what was played on the station, this tune is influenced by those and earlier times.

dream weapons moonland from his pathways ep (holger 3, 2014) has been a favorite of many. accordingly, remix duties were given into the trustworthy hands of barnt and jens uwe beyer, two of the co-founders of much acclaimed cologne label magazine. an expert in mixing and structuring, barnt carves out the hidden capabilities of the original while jens uwe beyer takes a slightly more humorous but no less feet-moving approach to things. weirdo techno in typical magazine/holger style.

moving to a different city always seems to mark a new time in my life musically. boston has become my new home after living in hartford, ct and new york city before that. the music on this release is a representation of me settling into a new environment. i have slowly realized that the music i make is mostly therapy for myself. it is what i believe that i need to hear at the time in order to be at peace with whatever situation i am in. in that regard, the music is very much who i am.

the *obsidian falls* ep from seattles josef gaard sits at a very fascinating but incredibly complimentary space between traditional techno tendencies and freeform ambient composition and experimentation. each track seamlessly references each other providing a straightforward sense of cohesion while maintaining a constant and aggressively progressive motion. the ep will guide and gently coerce the listener into experiencing a somewhat altered perspective on sonic and musical expression. without much notice the listener will effortlessly travel from point a to point c without realizing they have ever touched on point b.

what can be said about kerri chandler that hasn t already been said? the man is one of the greats of contemporary house music, a true legend & one of the most hard working & consistent producers out there today. trionisphere, his (second) lp from 2003 has it all, those gritty drums, the deep garage groove, the church feeling that influences so much of his sound & those bass-lines that he s renowned for are all here, not forgetting the outstanding vocal performances from his long-time collaborator dee dee brave amongst a cast of other guests. the sounds on the lp are wide ranging, from the uplifting latin swing of ye yo ma (mother) to the sparse, pacey, heads down house of it s you we re treated to a glimpse into mr.chandler s sound world across 2x12inchs & we all know that can only be a good thing! trionisphere has always been a fond favourite with house aficionados around the world & hasn t been available for a little while.until now! fully re-mastered, re-pressed & re-released in conjunction with king street sounds, nyc & made available again for 2015 in it s original format with the permission & participation of all rights holders. now s your chance to own a piece of ny/nj house history!
