in game of thrones season 5, nine noble families fight for control of the mythical land of westeros. political and sexual intrigue is pervasive. all the while a very ancient evil awakens in the farthest north. amidst the war and political confusion, a neglected military order of misfits, the night’s watch, is all that stands between the realms of men and icy horrors beyond.
game of thrones has always featured excellent music. the opening theme is practically iconic at this point, having been played and covered so many times. composer ramin djawadi’s heavy, atmospheric tunes have always helped set the mood, no matter what tone the show is going for at any given time.

fans von the knife, grimes, goldfrapp oder little dragon dürfen hier die ohren spitzen. kenner der alben von sam dust ebenfalls! der junge brite, der besser bekannt ist als la priest und musikalischer partner von connan mockasin als soft hair, hat xenoulas selbstbetiteltes album nämlich produziert. xenoula ist romy xeno. ihre kindheit verbrachte sie in südafrika, wo sie von der traditionellen musik der dorfnachbarschaft sowie den klängen der natur geprägt wurde. aus dieser zeit stammt ihre vorliebe für flora und fauna und eine gesunde skepsis gegenüber der technischen welt. als sie mit 16 jahren nach großbritannien zog, war sie konfrontiert mit einer modernen welt voller ihr unbekannter und flüchtiger eindrücke. gespickt mit erinnerungen aus ihrer südafrikanischen kindheit, verwendet sie ihre musik heute als ein kontrast und kommunikationsmittel mit dieser neuen umgebung. die musik ist ihre art, die menschlichen wiedersprüchlichkeiten zu erkunden, die sie auf ihren reisen durch europa kennenlernte. heute lebt romy im ländlichen nord wales.

fushara aka thushara goonewardene is a london based electronic musician working with breakbeats, samples and synthesiser. a constant theme for his music is urban decay. from the late 90s fushara has been involved with the london scene as a raver, dj, and producer. he has produced experimental work for labels such as pineconemoonshine, mjazz and more recently scientific recordings. in 2015 he set up an imprint lone foundation to showcase experimental bass music collaborating with daat and others. more recently he has made a return to work with breakbeat collaborating with infest for one of his tracks on his debut on criterion records and has signed to flex recordings for a forthcoming ep. here he makes his bow on 7th storey projects with two amen-driven monsters - the a side features ascension , an epic roller with industrial atmospherics and haunting vocal snatches. this is backed up with nerve on the b side, a nine and a half minute militant amenistic assault that hits hard, just the way we like it! we re delighted to welcome fushara to our roster of talent, we are sure you will be hearing plenty more from the man going forward!

landing as gene tellem s first record, -who says no- is a product of change. new relationships and collaborations emerged out of a time when familiar spaces in montreal were disappearing. this state of ambiguity, and improvisation inspired the freeform structures and subtle transformations heard in these tracks. while -moving in this way- and the title tune push forward with intention, -soul of man- floats between lush drones, a pitch bent lead, and a pair of haunting chords. -we were all being tested in different ways, and trying to figure out what would happen next...-

»a brand new me: aretha franklin with the royal philharmonic orchestra« verbindet ihre legendäre stimme aus den berühmtesten songs, die die »queen of soul« für atlantic records aufnahm, mit brandneuen arrangements, die vom royal philharmonic orchestra eingespielt wurden. aretha franklins unverwechselbare stimme wurde mit diesen neuen orchester-arrangements auf »a brand new me« wunderbar verschmolzen. die ebenfalls neu arrangierten und aufgenommenen backing-vocals stammen von grammy-gewinnerin patti austin, the royal philharmonic orchestra nahm seine parts in den londoner abbey road-studios auf.
das ergebnis dieser außergewöhnlichen bearbeitung besteht in einem zeitlosen album, das den soul, den groove und die gospelpower von franklins weltweit verehrter stimme erhält und einmal mehr in einem neuen kontext herausstellt. unter den highlights befinden sich neu imaginierte versionen von klassikern wie den zeitlosen billboard-no.1-hits »respect«, »think«, »don’t play that song (you lied)« und »angel«.
das album wurde von nick patrick und don reedman produziert, die auch für den weltweiten erfolg des albums »if i can dream: elvis presley with the royal philharmonic orchestra« verantwortlich sind, das vor kurzem in vielen ländern die charts toppte und mehr als 1.5 millionen exemplare verkaufte.

we ve had our eyes and ears on tee mango for a while now. his debut album imperfections is a future classic in our book and the tribute series has been part of our dj-sets for a while now. in short we had to get him to do an ep for local talk. dadhaus ep is forward-thinking music with an edge (undoubtedly sharpened through countless studio hours). tee channels the deep house flavours of detroit and chicago across four tracks of exquisitely executed percussion and sample-not-sample work. its another winner from the man like tee mango.

electronic emergencies is thrilled to work together with brand new new york label sangron records on the 10-track compilation album sangron volume 1. compiled by skeleton heads leo torres, the compilation draws from the u.s. underground with songs from minimal synth pioneers crash course in science and mark lane, alongside contributions from skeleton head, revival times, m/a/n/o/s, ortrotasce, minima moralia, silent em, horoscope and paper music. moody, dancefloor-friendly and rebellious, this is music for dissidents

along with his rival, cornell campbell, johnny clarke was one of the most esteemed singers of the roots reggae era. having grown up next door to a popular sound system on waltham park road in western kingston, clarke s early fascination with music led him to hang out at studio one with jacob miller while still at school. he then made the rounds of talent shows with barry brown, sugar minott and the diamonds, which led to a debut recording in 1973, for the pianist glen stair, which remains unreleased. an early effort for clancy eccles, ‘god made the sea and sun,’ was not promoted properly, though ‘everyday wondering,’ for rupie edwards, impacted in britain, ‘golden snake’ for stamma houghton and a cover of smokey robinson’s ‘you really got a hold on me’ for glen brown were also false starts. the breakthrough finally came in 1975 when clarke linked with bunny lee, who had him voice the rastafari landmark ‘none shall escape the judgement’ (written by earl zero, who failed to muster a credible take), which kick-started the ‘flying cymbal’ craze. clarke’s resultant debut album, enter into his gates with praise, mixed hard-hitting rastafari devotional material with sympathetic cover versions of classics by the likes of the paragons, slim smith and delroy wilson, along with a few reggae renditions of some vintage american r&b.

nach der ep-reihe -the bells- und der single -don’t feel like- erscheint nun jatas albumdebüt -mexico-. jata ist das soloprojekt des berliner multi-instrumentalisten, produzenten, remixer und songschreibers jacob vetter. der vorab-track -monster- ist ein pulsierender slow-beat mit verwehtem saxofon an der schnittstelle von soul und r&b, bei dem man nicht zuletzt an den späten marvin gaye denkt. geschrieben und aufgenommen hat jata -mexico- im wesentlichen in frankreich, wo er seit anderthalb jahren wohnt. hier, in einem kleinen dorf in der nähe von genf, fand er die ruhe für seinen bislang größten musikalischen wurf. aber letztlich ist natürlich auch das wieder nur eine zwischenstation für den suchenden reisenden jata. abgemischt hat er -mexico- gemeinsam mit ash workman in london.

airhead has put out some great music this year. kicking off with the radiophonic ice of kazzt for mumdance s different circles and just recently the low slung cristobal on ps records his production chops get bolder by the minute. it s no surprise seeing as he spent much of the previous year producing key tracks for the incredible -1-800 dinosaur presents trim- album alongside bullion and boothroyd as well as regularly touring and writing with long-time musical partner james blake. back with another 12- on hemlock, his first since 2014 s rolling october / macondo this time the sound is dustier, warmer, but packing twice the punch all the while retaining his signature understated wild-man groove. both tracks are capable on dancefloor whilst richly layered, packed with detail and arranged for maximum connectivity with contemporary beat styles such as house, techno and breaks. what happened to ricky martin? shaded is the twisted latin stepper you didn t know you needed, so much, right now. polished drums dug into a tweaky sci-fi soundbed make way for the curveball drop not every dj will be able to style out but those brave few that do will reap the reward. captain, we have an incoming transmission. by now, antipolo will be on the long-range scanners of a several fleets in this sector and is finally ready for replication and deployment. beaming out to the far reaches of the dancefloor we have bass, breakbeats and synth hooks but not as we know it together forming an advanced composite bond of extreme strength and malleability.

home recorded above a lawyers office and next door to a brothel, the retrospective is lead by the earth shattering digi stepper rock steady. originally intended for an abandoned dub album, rock steady and fantasy dub were saved from the cutting room floor by australian cd-only compilations on creative vibes and vital collective clan analogue, while green river was never released. now demanding wider appreciation, the dubs finally find union with green man’s new york hip hop/dancehall style, lifted from his second solo album the blue hour vol. 3: deep blue. humbly excelling in all electronic forms, rantzen helped guide techno-rave duo itch-e & scratch-e through the 90s with paul mac. winning the inaugural best dance release category at the 1995 aria awards, mac thanked all of sydneys ecstasy dealers, without whom this award would not be possible, while rantzen stayed at home. the two would also operate incognito as boo boo & mace and screensaver, often collaborating on looney dubs with sheriff lindo - the master of seismic shocks down under. rantzens earliest work stretches back to pelican daughters, an ensemble who proliferated industrial-leaning ambient and tape loop experiments

nach dem überaus erfolgreichen start mit veröffentlichungen von konzerten aus dem legendären hamburger club onkel pÖ im frühjahr des jahres und dem überwältigenden presseecho setzt das label jazzline in zusammenarbeit mit dem norddeutschen rundfunk die reihe ab oktober 2017 fort. sie war eine der großen stimmen des soul und des blues: esther phillips. die viel zu früh verstorbene künstlerin tourte in den 50er und 60er jahren durch die blues clubs der vereinigten staaten. erst mit ihrem discohit what a difference a day makes wurde sie einem größeren publikum bekannt und erreichte den kommerziellen höhepunkt ihrer karriere. das vorliegende konzert aus dem hamburger onkel pö zählt zu einer ihrer letzten großen auftritte. das vom ndr aufgezeichnete konzert im „onkel pö“, mit kraftvollen begleitern in der band und sehr enthusiastischem publikum, dokumentiert auf gleich zwei cd’s die außergewöhnlichkeit dieser großartigen künstlerin. noch einmal gelingt die große verzauberung in diesem hamburger november des jahres 1978. esther phillips wird wenige wochen später erst 43 jahre alt. aber die zeit läuft ab – die 50 hat die sängerin schon nicht mehr erreicht. am 7. august 1984 ist sie gestorben. dieses zeitdokument ist ein „must have“!
jetzt erhältlich als doppel-vinyl (schwarz/180g/direct metal mastering)!

in the field of minimal house reissues, this is a big deal. perlon main man dimbiman doesn’t appear on wax often, but when he does he makes it count. this early release on baby ford s seminal pal sl was originally out in 1998, when minimal house was a vague concept at best on the most outer reaches of dance music. -iso grifo- itself remains a masterclass of spine-chilling space and perfectly strange sonic matter, while -lava- pushes the notion of reduction dance music to its absolute limit. -round- is an even more immersive affair that hides many subtle layers within its seemingly simple construct. quite simply groundbreaking stuff, and highly sought after so don’t sleep on it.

this is soul jazz records’ latest new collection of classic and rare studio one recordings and is released on triple lp plus download code.
by the 1970s studio one and clement ‘sir coxsone’ dodd had already proved himself to be the defining force in reggae for almost two decades. from running the downbeat sound system on the lawns and yards of kingston in the late 1950s to opening studio one at 13 brentford road at the start of the 1960s, ushering in ska and rocksteady and establishing the careers of most of jamaica’s artists – everyone from bob marley and the wailers, ken boothe, toots and the maytals, the skatalites, jackie mittoo and more – clement dodd had until this point dominated the jamaican musical world.

after a lengthy hiatus, tuskegee music is back with a heavyweight release indeed: it features tracks written by detroit heavyweights seth troxler—under his young seth alias— and cult fxhe boss omar s. amazingly they were written 11 years ago and have been long forgotten until recently being unearthed. the first track here was inspired by a trip seth made to berlin’s club der visionaere in 2005. “it basically was me returning to detroit and telling omar about this crazy music i heard ricardo play during the day.” the result, ‘deep’(cdv 2006 mix), is a spine tingling atmospheric deep house track. the drums are lo-fi and loose, the bassline is a meandering thing that really sucks you in and soft, gentle toms tumble around the groove and encourage you to cut loose. then comes the experimental slow motion drum shuffle of ‘detroit after midnight’ which the pair made after “finding loads of weird records in his basement sampling them and making a classic mpc detroit cut.” it has the sounds of people talking as if coming from the room next door laid over a lazy and undulating bassline, and is brilliantly weird and sketchy. last of all, young seth goes solo on ‘luiza’s inferno’ five minutes of him jamming on omar’s ms20 with a warbling synth line coated in warm tape hiss and layers of dust. it’s a beatless piece that shows how inventive and ahead of his time troxler was even as a young man. this is a brilliantly unusual ep and another winner for seth troxler and the martinez brothers’ tuskegee label.

professor rhythm is the production moniker of south african music man thami mdluli. throughout the 1980’s, mdluli was member of chart-topping groups taboo and cjb, playing bubblegum pop to stadiums. mdluli became an in-demand producer for influential artists (like sox and sensations, among many others) and in-house producer for important record companies like eric frisch and tusk. during the early ’80s, mdluli projects usually featured an instrumental dance track. these hot instrumentals became rather popular. fans demanded to hear more of these backing tracks without vocals, he says, so mdluli began to make solo instrumental albums in 1985 as professor rhythm. he got the name before the recordings began, from fans, and positive momentum from audiences and other musicians drove him to invest himself in a full-on solo project. it was the era just before the end of apartheid and house music hadn’t taken over yet. there wasn’t instrumental electronic music yet in south africa. as the ’80s came to a close, that was about to change.

by now, the world is familiar with the extensive works of monsieur dimitri from paris. his prowess as a globetrotting dj and taste-maker for over 20+ years, his reputation for the finer things in life, his sartorial style and of course most importantly his infamous remixes and disco edits. isn’t it odd that until now, there hasn’t been an official home for the man’s stellar reworks? it just doesn’t make any sense. this is exactly the reason that he has decided to set up this brand new venture - le edits records. naturally, a high standard of quality is present with all le edits releases across the board - from sourcing 100% virgin vinyl used for pressing to the mastering through tape, to the beautifully crafted and designed tip-on sleeves that were popular with record companies in the 1960’s and 1970’s, to the wonderfully imagined graphic design that adorns said sleeves - dimitri has overseen every aspect of this, his first label.
what about the music? we hear you ask? well, simply put, only the finest disco reworks are to be released on le edits. fans will be treated to dim’s special versions of classics and rarer than rare tracks, all lovingly re-touched and mixed from the reels and master tapes each time, fully sanctioned and created in conjunction with the artists, rights holders and above board distribution. 100% official and 100% essential.

do yourself a favour and dance across the floor when listening to the new jacob korn-record, aptly titled son of gx. the music is heavily based on the good old yamaha electone organ. the home organ for the world s gentlemen was modified by jacob himself and is now an integral part of his studio. as you ll hear it on the ep, it injects a decent dose of fun into jacob s vision of house music. at least, you will instantly notice that when listening to singlefinger chord, a track that conquers the floor with its disco elements. rumours say that jacob s cat toddled on his poor man s yamaha cs80 when producing cats on organs. if that s true, the cat provided an irresistible hook to an already slamming, italo-inspired track. son of gx is every bit as compelling as the first two tracks with its synth trumpet glory while the slighty darker fun blocks sustains us with heavy percussion works straight out of the yamaha electone organ. on top, you ll get a remix for singlefinger chord by new york s jacques renault (let s play house) as digital bonus.

»alle liebe nachträglich« heißt ein nun erscheinendes gemeinsames album, auf dem die sängerin mine und der rapper fatoni das konfliktpotenzial zwischenmenschlicher beziehungen ausloten. denselben titel trägt nun auch die erste single: alle liebe nachträglich ist das tragische protokoll einer gescheiterten beziehung.
man kann eben doch auf deutsch über die liebe und ihr scheitern singen, ohne schlagermusik zu machen! auf alle liebe nachträglich lassen mine und fatoni kitsch und schwulst keinerlei raum: es geht um den scherbenhaufen danach, die konsequenzen eigenen handelns, die unumkehrbarkeit einmal getroffener entscheidungen und das wissen um all diese dinge. was bleibt nach dem ende einer beziehung? verletzte gefühle, vorwürfe, ein scherbenhaufen – und manchmal ein song wie »keine liebe nachträglich«.
die elektronisch grundierte popmusik, die mine und fatoni zu diesem dialog finden, vollbringt ein wahres wunder. mit anklängen an ndw, pop noir, und hiphop illustrieren die beiden ihr anliegen kongenial. diese musik entwickelt eine unwiderstehliche sogwirkung, weil man gleich spürt: mine und fatoni verraten ihre themen nicht. deshalb gelingen ihnen momente aufrichtiger wahrhaftigkeit.

chico buarque construcao revisited by l_cio is a beautiful debut project part of a doc series of releases combining classic brazilian names with doc artists and producers. l_cio (laercio schwantes) the man with the transverse flute known for some of the freshest and unique tracks coming out from brazil is behind this gemstone. increasingly building a legacy of fans following his live performances and recent releases on doc records (vazio, traffic, people talk, schwantes), this man is a non-stoppable 30 hours machine gun. on this long awaited 2-track limited edition vinyl release, l_cio and gui boratto kept the roots of this classic track construcao. however they added all the proper elements of a techno dance floor knockout. by inserting malicious baselines, flutes and strings they generated aggressive melodies while keeping all characteristics of this epic song. voted as the greatest brazilian song by rolling stones magazine, construcao was originaly recorded by chico buarque in 1971 with production by roberto menescal. released during military dictatorship, chico buarque criticizes the way of life of the brazilian workers, comparing them to machines. the song is known for its interchangeable last words, used as if they were pieces of a board game, as said by buarque. generatiions apart, construcao (l_cio & k_ri version) and construcao (l_cio & borattos deconstructed mix) are the first ever authorized remixes in over 45 years. l_cio the latest dance floor brazilian soldier, a menacing builder of beats completes an epic turnnig point by editing and lapidating a classic poetry. with a b side dub version beutifully crafted by label boss gui boratto, this limited edition pearl is finally here for our joy!

japan is our first collaboration. the ambient sounds on this record are fragments from our month-long stay in japan during spring 2015: hundreds of tokyo ravens in yoyogi park, an old song found in an old man s small shop in kyoto, the bird-like traffic signals in naha, okinawa, blending with the distorted voice of a man with a megaphone and a message... back in stockholm, these sounds became documentary elements in our music as well as sources for creating new sounds. the small, beautiful bowl we had brought home went to pieces, and the sonic character of the ceramic pieces turned into a delicate drone.

since our beginning, manny cuevas a.k.a. dj m-traxxx has been a big supporter of snuff trax. in return, we totally dig his amazing radio shows and podcasts. this man’s heart is beating for chicago house music and you can feel the impact on all of his productions. snuff trax is very happy to present a whole manny cuevas record: „thee jackin’ zone e.p.“ for „you’ll never know (twisted fantasy)“ manny invited the amazing dj and vocalist josh caffe. together they created a seductive tune that takes us back to the golden era of house. a truly irresistible affair. with the tracks „a matter defined (acid house)“ and „thee jackin zone“ manny captures the wild pulse of the dance floor. sincerely raw, that’s all we need.
