born in shreveport, louisiana, reuben bell began singing in local clubs. he first recorded for the local murco label in 1967 before moving to the silver fox and house of orange labels. in 1975 he released his first 45rpm single for alarm records (-superjock- b/w -i still have to say goodbye-) which was produced by wardell quezergue. neither side made any noise back then but 24 years later -superjock- was included in dj shadow & cut chemist s brainfreeze mix. since then it has become a classic and it has been played constantly by hip hop and funk djs all around the world. it has appeared on a handful of (mainly bootleg) compilations over the years so we are proud to present the long-overdue, fully licensed re-issue on its original format. you may check out tramp s -countdown to... soul- (tr-9067) compilation which contains -superjock- as well as some other fine rare grooves.

whats better once we hit peak time that dropping a sweet and soulful, bumpin tune that makes all the ladies say, ah and the fellas say, yeah? nothing. nothing is better. wd53 has stocked you up with four prime contenders for that perfect time of the night.

played by marcel vogel / it s been a while since we heard any new material from rick poppa howard, the father of prodigious house talent tevo howard. the soul and raw, off-kilter production style runs in the family, and -keep holdin on- demonstrates this perfectly with its immediate warmth and unfussy arrangement. -gimme that love- is the real gem on this record though, toying with a rubbery bassline and a touch more atmospheric detail that makes howards voice shine. that said, if you do require an instrumental version for any reason, the alternative cut stands proud on its own. for our money though, we d say howard s vocals are what makes this record special.

im sommer 2016 landete ben frost in chicago, um mit steve albini zu arbeiten. Über zwei wochen hinweg wurden in einem höhlenartigen studio mehr als zwei stunden musik aufgenommen. -threshold of faith- ist die erste veröffentlichung mit musik aus dieser session. inkl. dl-code als schwarzes vinyl. das cover hat einen glossy-print sowie einen großen pantone-druck.

nachdem temporär die special edition des soundtracks erhältlich war (anderes coverartwork, pink gefärbtes vinyl), kehren invada nun mit dieser neuauflage zu dem ursprünglichen design des soundtracks zurück. sprich es ist auf dem cover wieder die rückenansicht von ray gosling in seiner silberfarbenen skorpion-jacke zu sehen. damit es nicht langweilig wird, ist das 140g schwere vinyl nun so gefärbt: frosted clear with multi-coloured splatter . das gatefold-cover rundet diese edition ab. -drive- gehört zu den populärsten scores der letzten jahre. die mischung aus elektronischer pop-musik (unter der leitung/produktion der chromatics) und dem elektronischem soundtrack (von cliff martinez, ex- red hot chilli peppers) geht wunderbar auf und verbindet sich treffsicher mit den suggestiven bildern des films.

scrimshire s edits are synonymous with our imprint, and every one has been of the highest quality, often hand-picking the more obscure works you never knew you loved, from some of your favourite soul voices. and as we turn 21 (release-wise) he pulls it out of the bag once again, rework chaka s string-laiden -some love- into a monstrous dance-floor destroyer, adding some serious sliced and diced funk chops to merry clayton s percussion heavy version of -keep your eye on the sparrow-, and finally, subtly and tastefully turning mcneal + niles rare slow and soulful treat, -summertime love- into a late night balearic beauty. the perfect summer soundtrack and another sure-fire dubplate winner!

das beste von dem sänger mit der rauchig-smoothen stimme, der seit mehr als 30 jahren als solokünstler, songwriter und produzent erfolgreich ist. “can’t stop a man” präsentiert 36 ausgesuchte songs aus den jahren 1976 bis 2003 auf triple-lp im gatefold sleeve und ausführlichen liner notes & track by track-notes, geschrieben vom us-amerikanischen reggae-experten rob kenner. erstmalig in jahre 2003 parallel zum gleichnamigen 2cd-digipak set erschienen, ist dieses beres hammond porträt wieder als vinyl erhältlich. das zitat von prime entertainment zum konzert im kölner stadtgarten bringt es auf den punkt: “beres hammond beeindruckt mit seiner durch tiefes timbre geprägten, dennoch smoothen und sehr eindringlichen stimme. seine texte sind stets von einer emotionalen dichte und der wahrheit getragen, dass wir eigentlich alle nur nach liebe suchen. diese essentielle message verpackt er in große dancehall-smasher, ebenso wie in romantische balladen und in spirituelle rootsgesänge.”

one of the most important harmony groups in the entirety of jamaican music, the paragons have a long and complicated history. first formed in the ska years by bob andy and tyrone evans as the duo of andy and ronnie, the group soon expanded to a quartet through the addition of howard barrett and john holt, the latter naturally assuming lead duties, following the subsequent departure of andy, holt, evans and barrett made the paragons the quintessential rock steady trio. they had an incredible run of hits for duke reid and coxsone during the mid-to-late ‘60s, and also issued some self-produced work, before holt’s solo career skyrocketed, leaving the group on the back-burner. then, in the mid-1970s, the paragons reformed, cutting material for new york-based labels such as clocktower and clintones, which led to this intriguing album, which saw material recorded in jamaica at harry j for bunny lee mixed with work cut at bullwackie’s studio in the bronx, along with re-workings of classics such as ‘left with a broken heart’ and ‘memories by the score’ is a whole range of new material, dealing with contemporary themes.

soundtrack zu aktuellen netflix-serie “black mirror”. die musik stammt von clint mansell, früher sänger der band pop will eat itself, heute gefragter komponist von film-scores. zu seinen erfolgreichen werken gehören die film-musiken zu “black swan”, “moon”, “ghost in the shell” und “the fountain”. “black mirror” gehört zu den ungewöhnlichsten serien im moment: “wenn technik eine droge ist - und es fühlt sich wie eine droge an, was genau sind dann die nebenwirkungen? dieser bereich - zwischen vergnügen und unbehagen - ist der schauplatz meiner neuen drama-serie black mirror”, sagt serien-schöpfer charlie brooker. der score ist entsprechend düster, elektronisch, atmosphärisch.

dieses album enthält die schönsten auszüge von max richters soundtracks zu »waltz with bashir«, »sarahs schlüssel«, »das mädchen wadjda«, »disconnect«, »thecongress« und »testament of youth«.

blacksilk proudly announces its third release, the second on vinyl, reissuing a selection of tracks from dsordne, experimental electronic band active in turin during the 80’s and early 90’s. thanks to the proactive and collaborative spirit of marco milanesio, band’s founder and author of most of the songs, deserved and proper attention is finally given to three stunning original masterpieces of dusky, heavily post-punk influenced tracks veined with some sort of industrial aftertaste. these songs have been selected from a span of works, mostly autoproduced, that dsordne released in the years of activity on various labels (primarily the related hax records) or fanzines of the thriving italian underground scene of the time, which provided the perfect environment to experiment while representing the dull, grey and nihilist reality of the already post-industrial turin of the mid-80’s.

originally hailing from melbourne australia, the now berlin based live electronic act forces release their latest mlp- newbody on the label incarnation of the berlin based fleisch collective. the 6 track mlp maps their relationship over the last few years with four new tracks and two remixes. ranging from taught, neurotic pop and ebm to bristling ambient landscapes, newbody burns with a kind of pre-dawn energy that is both euphoric and paranoid. newbody depicts the final moment in the boomerang arc of technology as it returns to completely re-enter the body, perfectly capturing the focused urgency and post-electronic physicality of forces live.

exzellenter sampler mit 16 massiven tracks aus der belgischen popcorn-Ära rund um den gleichnamigen club in vrasene (flandern) und seinem dj gilbert govaert. opener ist die vielgesuchte top-rarität “keelin kinda lonesome” von willie j charles, während die tunes von ki ki page und chance halladay hier zum ersten mal auf vinyl wiederveröffentlicht werden! ein schmuckstück für soul/r&b-vinylsammler.

delroy wilson the original ‘cool operator’ was also known to many as ‘teacher’. a title given to him as he unselfishly taught the up and coming singers including one youth dennis brown, the art and delivery of singing technique. delroy’s rich tone to his voice added a depth to any song that he chose to sing. delroy wilson (b.1948 kingston,jamaica) began his musical career at the school that was coxonne dodd’s studio one label. after a brief stop in 1969,which saw delroy working for producer sonia pottinger’s tip top label. again producing such hits including ‘it hurts’ and ‘put yourself in my place’. the 1970’s saw delroy wilson’s arrival at bunny ’striker ’lee’s door and what would result in a winning formula,scoring hit after hit. it is from this great period in delroy’s career that we have compiled this selection of killer tunes,cut with the drum and bass rhythm kings themselves sly dunbar and robbie shakespeare.such classis as ‘who care’ ,’can i change your mind’,’get ready’,’you must believe me’ and the timeless title track to this collection ‘here comes the heartaches’. an album of great tracks cut with ‘the hitmaker from jamaica’ bunny lee and his team. a match made in heaven….enjoy the set….

the allergies debut album introduced the world to the way they effortlessly fuse funk, soul, disco, hip-hop and breaks into dancefloor-ready nuggets of ear candy. taking classic sounds and reshaping for the modern age is the signature that won them plaudits across the globe. not ones to rest on their laurels, it hasn t taken long for them to deliver more of the goods on their second full-length album, push on . as well as taking the successful formula of the first record and expanding on the sound with raw funk, psych, northern soul, and boogie influences, the allergies enlisted two giants of underground hip-hop to bless mics on the album as well.

sometimes you have to put out a recdord for yourself. i first heard the east of underground lp from malcom catto in the jazzman records office in around 2000, after a couple of years i managed to pick one up for $100 from a soundtrack dealer who did not know what he had. now there is a few bangers on the lp but i have always thought is was the ballads that deserve the shine, so after a chat with egon at now-again i managed to sort out putting my two favorites on 45 for that end of the night slowy. hopeflly a few of you will enjoy this one also.

sadar bahar ist ein us-amerikanischer house-dj aus chicago mit einem faible für disco und funk, der insbesondere durch die wundervolle kompilation -soul in the hole- (2012) auch abseits der dancefloors dieser welt für aufmerksamkeit sorgen konnte. gemeinsam mit dem synthesizer-enthusiasten und electro veteranen ben spaander aka cosmic force hat er in dessen utrechter studio vier schwer groovende tanzbodenfüller aufgenommen. -electronic frequencies- lässt mit einer hypnotischen synth-bassline, gerader kickdrum und jazzigen gitarrensprengseln klassische 80er-house-zeiten hochleben. -fast trumpet- zaubert aus funky wah-wah-gitarren und einem ohrwurmartigen bläser-sample einen frenetischen discosong. der disco/funk-workout -binaries in love- lebt vom schwindeligen zusammenspiel aus saxofon und rockiger gitarre. den abschluss macht das geschmeidige jazz-funk-stück -east river throwdown- mit einem ikonischen break.
