repress! when three people run a label together it is exceptionally rare to find a positive unified opinion of a record on first listen. when isolée sent his -mangroove- ep to maeve, this was in fact what happened. but it is isolée after all.... mangroove came about last summer when the drifter happened to catch isolée s live set at a festival in switzerland. instantly blown away by the a side -pisco- he was determined to find out what it was and if it was to be released. after chatting, isolée suggested that he would send -pisco- along with a couple of other -demos- to maeve and a few days later the ep was happening. isolée has created some of the most important and beautiful records of our generation and has being a huge influence on what we do, thus we are incredibly excited and humbled to release his work. this three track ep shows several different sides of the frankfurt native, from the a-side dance floor catalyst that is -pisco- to the deeper dubbier b-sides of -l5 syndrome- and -mangrove-. this is the perfect record to mark our tenth release.

irrgang is the highly anticipated debut album of ossian ohlsson s vit fana project. representing a new generation of experimental musicians from scandinavia pushing the limits of contemporary industrial music, irrgang is the culmination of a process perfected over several years. while the comfortless drones, ear-piercing noise bursts and razor-sharp synth work may be the album s backbone, the signature trademark of earlier vit fana recordings is present in ohlsson s haunting vocals and the subtle hints of brutal beauty. a highly personal musical statement, irrgang stands with one foot firmly rooted in the tradition of early industrial noise music, while effectively creating a grotesque universe of its own.

the always trustworthy sound carrier label steps back into the limelight to hit us with another fix of quality techno from monsieur chris carrier. the parisian producer never stops making music, and he presents three new extra terrestrial cuts here on this latest instalment from his excellent label. the story here is about two powerful intergalactic beings who discover that they have been lied to by their leaders - there are no magic mushrooms, just a forest of poisoned ones. they have laid down their arms to discuss this despicable turn of events… track one is a rolling slice of analogue techno with acid licks and squelches bubbling away at its core. named ‘cat’s eye nebula’ it sucks us in to an interplanetary vortex, with cosmic fx transporting to the interior of a spaceship, while the beats give the feeling of a bumpy ride into the cosmos. this is followed by the more composed solemnity of ‘galactus’. shuffling beats slide over a funky bassline, the outer space theme continues with carrier implementing a series of manipulated sounds which convey the feeling of futuristic machinery, blinking dashboards or robots communicating with one another. finally, we have ‘dark poison’, the inspiration behind the whole ep. more deep 303 vibes on this with a simmering analogue riff, percussion which increases in intensity alongside several layers of melodramatic effects, high-pitched twinkles and chimes which really add to the tension

the colors are stunning. in a single view, i see looking out at the edge of the earth, all the colors of the prism. red at the horizon, blends to orange and yellow, followed by a thin white line, then light blue, gradually turning to dark blue, then black as the vastness of space engulfs the surroundings. as i looked upon our home rock, i saw many natural features. i witnessed a large river meandering slowly along for miles, passing from one country to another without stopping or hesitation. i also saw huge forests, extending along & across several borders as if these divides didnt exist. i watched the extent of one ocean touch the shores of separate continents, then suddenly, a profound thought came over me as i looked down on all this. the birds dont fly this high

&apos’s music veers between abstract, experimental compositions and more beat driven tracks, all held together by a defined aesthetic of sonic impurities and random patterns thrown up by algorithmic computations. in &apos’s music compositional decisions are not merely reliant on himself but also on a range of processes from constrained randomness to full fledged neural networks. that is to say, the ‘instruments’ he creates have -to a certain extent- a mind of their own. there will always be a dynamic between the musician and something else that triggers, proposes or decides what will happen to the music.it is exactly from this human-machine interaction that &apos extrapolates his musical ideas that are both intricate and detailed while never losing an overall sense of emotional value. his first solo project ‘lichtdrank’ is a selection of four tracks made during his time studying sonology at the hague’s royal conservatory and the time following. it is the third and final installment of bepotel s startuplabel trilogy. previously, he has released music together with walrus and sagat under several musical projects like smaakwaterval and bepotel. the artwork of the lichtdrank ep is based on screenshots from an interactive multiplayer video game where the musical universe of &apos can be explored.

2016 repress incoming!
jay lumen needs no introduction as he has been important to the tech and techno scene for years now. after several releases on labels like drumcode, octopus, relief, suara, off etc. we are happy to have him back on noir music with this fantastic tech stomper our freedom that has a little bit of everything. the remixes comes from la fleur and traumer. both are among our favorite producers at the moment and we are happy to write that both did an excellent remix job making sure we got fantastic alternative versions here.

nice price deal !!! together as sycophant slags, mr. c and adultnapper began their sonic journey several years ago after a week long studio session in nyc. during that time three shared a car ride with mr c with the tracks of that session as the soundtrack and the dharma fields release was born. along with crawl up. two tracks that continue to sound as timely as they are timeless! more recently the slags have released standouts on get physical, their massive remix of reverse commuter - southern charge (also on hallucination limited) and possibly their biggest track to date --- keep off --- on poker flat recordings which sees mr c returning to the mic in a sublime style thats rocked dance floors the world over.

nice price deal !!! bad pimps are nobody else than patrick lindsey aka voodooamt and stanny franssen aka g-force. both buddies have teamed up again to show us what funky and tribal techno really is. being tired from all this boring electro hypes they have reexplored the groove again. after several smashing releases on monik kruse s terminal m imprint patrick and stanny are now releasing this master piece on patrick s techno division trackland and one thing is fure sure, mister lindsey is backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
