eine dringend benötigte veröffentlichung, die in keiner respektablen new beat-sammlung fehlen darf. die zweite und letzte single des zsa zsa laboum-projekts, die ursprünglich 1989 kurz nach dem erfolg von -something scary- veröffentlicht wurde.

something scary ist wahrscheinlich eines der repräsentativsten beispiele für den belgischen new beat, als sich das genre zum hard beat wandelte, und stammt von einer der schlüsselfiguren in der explosion der frühen belgischen rave-szene, rembert de smet. schon in den ersten sekunden des tracks wird der hörer mit einer der wohl unvergesslichsten acid-basslinien des new beat konfrontiert, die das menschliche ohr je erreicht haben. sehr direkt und charakteristisch für ein genre, das aus studioexperimenten zu einer zeit hervorging, als sich chicago acid etablierte und bereits das vereinigte königreich kontaminierte.

a musical partnership forged at the beginning of the millennium, ajit steyns and kate mcgill have developed a well defined and unmistakable sound as the untouchables. tribal rhythms drenched in dub, with characteristic nods to the breaks and rave stabs era of late 90’s dnb, their music has been an integral component of the darker half-time sound that has become more prevalent within dnb over the past 5 years. tempering the menace of their atmospherics with distinctive low-slung bass lines has made their music essential to dj’s championing this sound.

lena willikens is the kind of artist whos only capable of following one path her own. in many ways, shes the archetypal selector, an unpredictable dj who often eschews all notions of genre in favor of what she describes as different temperatures, different time zones, different moods and a healthy portion of chaos. although her methods have certainly proven effective on the dancefloor, willikens also refuses to be bound by its traditional limitations.

repertoire head north for their first 12- of the year courtesy of rising manchester murker artilect. -something else- is a spacious rolling piece laden with a strong late night desert atmosphere complete with snare-shaking rattlesnakes. homemade weapons is the perfect remixer of choice as he digs his claws into the space and completely switches up the drums to a combo of rolling hangdrum and thunderclap splashes of breaks in all the right sweet spots. finally we get -lost- amongst some superb razor sharp steps, haunted paranoid textures and classic rave-referencing humanised hits. absolutely authentic.

in time for the 20th anniversary of his label hospital productions, dominick fernow offers the first release of his techno-focused moniker vatican shadow on ostgut ton, following up on his berghain residency and joining ostgut booking in 2016 with his vatican and prurient projects. the cocteau twins/this mortal coil-channelling, beatless widescreen opener “they deserve death” and the two collateral club/dancefloor tracks “rubbish of the floodwaters” and “weapons inspection” offset each other by reincarnating the tape manipulation that laid the foundation of vatican’s first performances with analog hardware and minimalist midi-dissection. produced in los angeles with josh eustis, vatican shadow’s rubbish of the floodwaters ep casts a full spectrum picture of where the project was born and where it headed.

das in der karibischen atmosphäre aufgenommene -the temple of i&i- atmet den spirit und den rhythmus jamaikas und klingt wie eine fortsetzung des legendären thievery corporation debütalbums -sounds from the thievery hi-fi- (1996). das duo siedelte für die aufnahmen mit seiner gesamten live-rhythm-section aus washington, dc in die geejam studios in port antonio im herzen jamaikas. dort entstanden mit viel ganja und rum und diversen vokalisten, darunter dem bekannten mr. lif sowie der exzellenten newcomerin aus kingston und ex-miss jamaica, racquel jones, 15 fabelhafte tracks zwischen dub, downbeat, reggae, hiphop und electronica, und damit ein inspirierender nachfolger ihres letzten brazil-albums -saudade- (2014).

*stranger things* ist eine neue netflix-tv-serie, die gerade in deutschland gestartet ist und international große wellen schlägt. die mystery-serie bietet jede menge referenzen an die 80er jahre, vergleiche zu steven spielberg und stephen king werden gerne gezogen. nicht weniger im fokus: der kongeniale soundtrack von kyle dixon & michael stein. von atmosphärischen stücken bis hin zu treibenden synthie-pop reicht das musikalische spektrum. hier wird gerne eine parallele zu dem score von -drive- gezogen, wohl einem der ikonografischsten soundtracks der letzten jahre.
