a strange confluence of sound that sounds part krautrock synth label brain records, part hyperdub. techno haze and synth wormholes with spectacular sound design that has banged at berghain and soundtracked winter night drives. greenspan is known mainly for his work with junior boys and jessy lanza and taraval is a longtime touring member of caribou, but both have released several 12” and eps of electronic exploration over the past few years. inspired by synthesizer minimalists like jd emmanuel, cluster and john carpenter, the two attempted to create a type of dance music with hardware that was indebted to their influences but did not feel intrinsically retrogressive. the idea was to make a type of raw synthesizer and drum machine music that could be listened to beside the hypermodern techno of pearson sound or actress. the cover art is a tribute to a mysterious mural that looms over the hamilton ontario area where the album was recorded. each of the five tracks on the ep were edited down from much longer recording jams which were done with hardware sequencers in real time. the recording was done completely off the floor with no overdubs or added material after the fact.

joakim on samurai: this is a very personal record. i tried to channel the emotions and spontaneity i had when i first started making music. its not about nostalgia, its about the freshness and directness call it naivety you lose when you start becoming a professional musician. i moved to new york almost 5 years ago. these past few years have been a weird combination of excitement and quite challenging events. ive learnt what it means to be exiled, in every sense. this album is about that, being far away from home and from yourself and finding your way back. the album is built like an unknown city, you walk through it, making random turns, getting lost, some corners may bring back memories, you’re getting away from something and at the same time youre on a quest. hence the importance of listening to it in its entirety (yes, im a utopian). it will be the only physical release, very limited. no cd edition. producer, d.j., label manager, tireless gem searcher, musician, music lover, its hard to reduce joakim to a single function xavier veilhan, french artist et sculptor tall lanky weird dude who makes great music

fantastic voyage’s autumn 2015 release of soul for dancers proved so successful, that we didn’t have to think twice when lois wilson (mojo, record collector) asked if she could do it all over again. it turns out that there were plenty more classic sides in her dj crates, drawing on that rich seam of early soul and proto-soul rhythm & blues, of the sort that would have packed the dancefloors on the sixties club scene, or has been embraced by subsequent generations of club soul diehards.

club music that makes you wanna dance, so einfach definiert der brite garry todd seine kunst. und er hat recht. sie haut rein. geht direkt ins bewegungszentrum und sorgt da für viel aufruhr. man kann noch hinzufügen, dass sie im house beheimatet ist. das sie keine klischees bedient und einen gewissen twist hat, der auf ein natürliches wiegentalent hinweist. als teen tanzte er zu sets von masters at work. infiziert vom house und techno-virus und angetrieben von der sehnsucht nach ewigem sommer startete er vor sechs jahren ein nomadenleben zwischen australien, ibiza und seiner britischem heimat. besonders in down under avancierte er als dj, produzent und partyorganisator zu einer zentralen figur der neu aufkeimenden clubszene in und um sydney. in seinen eigenen produktionen tobt er sich filigran und ausgetüftelt im genre house aus.

(this is the first time he has ever been so involved in another artists work.)

decadubs 4 is a vinyl-only companion-piece to hyperdub 10.3, the latest cd in hyperdubs ongoing series of birthday-marking collections. following on from the labels first two 10th anniversary compilations, the third act represented in 10.3 transects and extrapolates forward the hyperdub catalogue from yet another angle, this time following the melancholy vapour trail drafted by burials numerous atmospheric beatless moments. this ep tunes in to those 11 new moments of downcast ambience that comprise half of the cds complete content, resulting in over 40 minutes of hitherto-unknown audio which squarely shoulder their extended play billing.

hip hop did not develop in a vacuum - its roots can be traced back to the earliest afro-american music, and the folks who were influenced by these sounds along the way. this lp compiles some of the great recordings that showcase the spoken word and street culture put forth from the 1920s through the 1960s that would go on to influence the entire rap music genre. the themes will be familiar - religion, politics, black experience, badass gangsta rap, speed, sex, drugs and rock n roll. lets listen to the lessons that the hipsters of the past taught the rappers of today.

the globetrotting album concept has returned as hed kandi world series takes on the usa, and after the recent success of world series miami vol 2, it only makes sense to continue this journey through americas evolving electronic music scene. electronic dance music has made it to the forefront of music across the globe, with it recently exploding in the united states. following the success of this yearÕs ultra music festival in miami and electric daisy carnival in las vegas, djÕs were booked to headline major festivals in america such as coachella, lollapalooza and swsx. with 3cds covering los angeles, las vegas and new york, it was difficult to whittle down the massive floor fillers we collected to only 45 tracks that represent the hedonism and glamour of dance music in the top 3 cities of the us.
