alec storey (formerly known as al tourettes) praesentiert auf seinem debuetalbum auf houndstooth psychedelisch-inspirierte, bassige dark electronica. double divide ist ein komplexes werk, inspiriert von liebe und emotion. es ist ein werk voller gegensätze, paradoxien und idiosynkrasien. ein mix aus hochintensiver, beatgetriebener musik, abenteurlichen clubtunes, die storeys basswurzeln belegen, gleichzeitig aber auch durch gefuehlsgeladene ambientpassagen aus komplex-rhythmischen strukturen und melodisch emotionalen passagen ausbalanciert werden.

andres second ep on his own la vida label, following up the label debut new for u, which has been one of the biggest records of 2012. the second time around ep features the single skate this way, a house tune with epic strings guaranteed to bang the dance floor. on the flip is second time around and hart plaza both originally released on kdj records, but here we new versions with additional keys courtesy of detroits own amp dog knight. another essential release from andres...

londoners kiwi and ashworth return to sneaky for a follow-up to dawn ep, the warm, dusty and at times experimental release, championed by the likes of daniel avery, eric duncan and tiefschwarz. the past few months have been busy for both halves of the duo, with kiwi signing to duke dumont s blase boys club and remixing for house music super-labels bpitch control and get physical, whilst ashworth has signed music to tomoki tamura s holic trax and needwant. second ep takes a new format, with two original tracks alaska and na am on the a-side, backed up by a nicholas & marcoradi remix of cux3 and ranacat s remix of zubr. alaska could be described as an amalgamation of the inspirations that lead to the first sneaky release, combining the pumping house beats of cux3, the comforting wurlitzer of zubr and the ethereal movie-soundtrack dusk. na am is something totally different, existing mainly as a collage of recorded and found sounds, avoiding the usual structure of house music in favour of something reminiscent of the weirder side of the chemical brothers. strange though the track may be, the climax would undoubtedly move a room full of pilled up ravers to a state of frenzy. the b-side remixes both hint to dance floors of the 90s, with nicholas and marcoradi making you wait and wait before dropping an unforgettable piano hook, whilst sneaky s ranacat lifts zubr out of context and into peak time territory.

the first release on second voyage is a self-titled ep with exotic pumping house jams. imagine mr. kurtz in heart of darkness doing this instead of chopping heads off.

andré winter delivers his second exclusive ideal audio release � dogma. it is dark, it is hypnotic, it is what we call modern techno music. on the a-side you can find the original, which amazes with the number of sequences, which mr. winter twists and turns.beats and rhythms clash one after the other creating a mysterious and threatening, yet curious atmosphere. just close your eyes and enjoy the mood ride. the b-side offers pan-pots treatment of the track. the remix is massive, somewhat housier and brings exciting sound effects to the surface. great work

repress 2014 - next up in the 10 inch series on mos_deep another heavy 2-tracker of d marc cantu, which will be followed by a (mini)-album later this year. the opening track is a fierce chicago-styled banger kicking off with an extremely solid and frantic bassline while d marcs low-pitched voice asks us >how are we doing?<. the track slowly evolves into a deep and atmospheric masterpiece with spatial strings slowly expanding throughout the track.
>how are we doing?< is counter-balanced by the fragility and subtlety on the flipside. >a second earth< is a laid-back and emotional retro-futuristic techno track overflowing with sadness and melancholy, echoing the sounds of the artificial-intelligence era. like a lost vessel drifting through space this track captivates and terrifies at the same time. a beauty and a beast!

gynoid audio, one of the few female labels around, started her course in 2010. she s now one of the most prolific labels when it comes to a variety of functional techno, with focus on drive, mood, dirt and depth. the amount of well-established veterans (both old and new) who released or remixed for the label, or newcomers who saw their career start on gynoid, is impressive. it also describes why its one of the most charted labels in it s field of operation. to celebrate the mains series 100th release and the continuance of the label we decided to preset a massive va compilation spanning over three releases. here is a limited green vinyl of the second volume from the 100th compilation, featuring brand new tracks by audio injection, black hats, mattias fridell, rraph.

without trying to making it into a thing in its own right, there is a bit of a coincidence that is appearing for some of our houndstooth artists. following dylan richards chrysalis-like metamorphosis into house of black lanterns, alec storey is the latest artist to shift phase and re-christen his output after signing to our label, progressing from the al tourettes moniker in favour of the more becoming, second storey. whilst his new name might be in homage to the musical path set forth for him by his father, the four-track margosa heights ep sounds very little like anything you have heard from the bristol based producer before.

samuli kemppi may have begun in warm house climes as the duo sam & gigi, but he has since found his niche and fame sound tracking the deep and icy black recesses of space. 2009s komisch debut, deep space helsinki ep, birthed the galactic signature that would come to define his solo techno output for labels like prologue, mote-evolver and perc trax, meanwhile cementing his stylistic meanderings to a single, albeit flexible, narrative. parallax of one second ep is samuli kemppis third outing on m rec ltd, after the full cyclic model ep and remix inclusion on ben gibsons more than milk, and sees the fin plundering the astronomic theme once again with stellar sci-fi precision.

praterei returns with their 5th instalment and so do those twins with their second successive offering to the vienna stable! the ingredients on this one are similar to the last but the result is no less stirring. the rough and ready side of the 12 belongs to the aptly entitled >house< and youll see why. never straying too far from the old school... shuffling beats and rims keep things swinging. each layer of the melody is deep in youll be whistling this later territory and intermittent vocal shouts remind us exactly what it is we are listening to. the flip beckons for you to walk with me and that you must. the beat saunters along but always with a sanguine skip and our seductive protagonist guides us through the warm textures of rich pads and stabs. this is one of those records where, for both tracks, the message could not be more perfectly translated. every aspect contributes to a common goal, and thats a rare and quite special thing.

after the trippy translations of the helium robot space trip called jarza, theo parrishs second and very welcomed visit to running back is all new material - almost. black mist in its extended version is just that: an extended take of the already released version on the rare-as-hens-teeth sketches pack. cut on 45, its a hard punch in the gut. techno-not-techno-house-not-house parrish power. previously unreleased and no less persuasive are pop off and wild out. while the first one centers around an endless piano and sucks you into the corny, but magic of repetition, the second one sounds like a theo parrish demo for dance mania after he came back from listening to lil louis at the bismark pavilion. mosh pit music. limited pressing in full printed sleeves.

das nächtliche gemunkel am tresen bei bier und klaren war irritierend gewesen: aufs neue album, so drummer zimmermann und basser strohmeier, würde das lo fat orchestra auch kinderchöre und ein streichquartett packen. man dachte mit grauen an the wall, konzeptalben-bombast, artrockkacke und hoffte halb, das sei nur der berüchtigte schwarzwälder humor. jetzt ist the second word is love da. nicht mit kinder- aber mit chören und natürlich mit streichquartett. die befürchtungen zerbröseln im nu, wenn im opener be honest die bassdrum nagelt, die elektrizität in der luft rauscht und singt, bevor der sägezahnbass und schmids gesang und orgel einsetzen. alles gut! alles besser! alles: mehr!
