vinyl 2 of the from the dark volume 2 sampler on cultivated electronics.

this is part 2 of >from the dark< series ... electro in full range

yugen’s third entry, laurine, arrives courtesy of los angeles-based producer and these things take time label-head b. hayes. at just 22 years old, hayes has packed remarkable perspective into this immersive deep-house four-tracker. it’s the work of a true participant. as if hayes work as a dj, producer, and label owner wasn’t enough, he has also put in time as a diy party promoter (he threw the beloved like i, love u parties that used to go down in the chinatown area of chicago) and a production assistant at chicago dance institution smart bar. the sum of all these parts is hayes impeccable ability to balance functionality with sonic taste.

the latest release on francis harris scissor & thread is another exercise in subtlety and restraint, brought to us by the emerging talents of nadia khan. with little known about the artist, this release lets the sublime music do the talking. title track ‘in gleam is a beautifully evocative drift into ambient textures - rising pads and occasion bass tones combine to set an exquisite scene. ‘local visit is a collaboration with label boss francis harris, and features some of the trademark submerged rhythm and textures the label has become known for, unfolding its deep structures over the course of the track. ‘restless sees label regular alex albrecht aka melquíades (whose previous ep on s&t was received warmly) provide the last bells remix - again muted tones and rhythmic complexity glide under ethereal piano fragments and slowly evolving pad washes. ‘sorting through finds its groove early, a deadened kick unfolds into an urgent percussion creating a thick atmosphere of melancholia. ‘sunburnt rounds out the physical release - ending how it started - with dreamy, smudged tones, and warm pads.

rough and ready machine tracks from brazilian producer/december collaborator innsyter (la club resource). cyn002 picks up where coletivo vandalismo left off, channeling that same wild, diy bedroom studio spirit across nine individual recordings. opening with sprawling synth motifs fighting against a steady rhythm track, desintegrado sounds like an industrial dub punk trying to channel early cluster or moebius and strangely succeeding. the rest of the lp treats us to vaguely drexciyan, subaquatic electro (bries) and twisted lo-fi minimalism with bonus eerie monologue samples (superficial love). the one recurring theme on magnetic healing is innsyter s clear love for mournful, post-punk inspired melodies. it comes across loud and clear on almost every track yet never sounds tired. things eventually draw to a close with the hopelessly romantic new wave instrumental forest shaman - a short ballad for all those weary-eyed party-goers who stuck around til the sun came up!

rudeness from the a colourful storm camp by mark a new name to us but he sounds like a veteran of the game. two chopped d n b steppas reminiscent of goldie and source direct s finest work, surfacing and dissolving between tones and fissures which remind us of bee mask or opn s darkest moments. peerless productions miles ahead of the current jungle / breakbeat revival. featured in label head moopie s mix on dommune this year.

an epoch is defined as an extended period of time typically characterized by a distinctive development or by a memorable series of events, and scott hansen, leader of the band tycho, has named their new album epoch with that in mind. the last installment in a trilogy, epoch is the culmination of more than a decade’s work that has seen the band evolving and maturing through two sublime releases dive (2011) and awake (2014), and developing from featuring hansen as a delicate solo performer into the iconic frontman of a powerful multi-layered live band performing on the world’s largest stages.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

the second release on arcing seas by label heads cassegrain. this new material presents the duos very individual approach to tonality within the techno framework, combined with a subtle tribal influence. maintaining their aim, they keep things exciting for the club as well as sonically. label info: arcing seas is an anagram of cassegrain. it started out as a secret alias, releasing a couple eps on our circula sound. the secret was less well kept after the duo appeared at berghain under this name. a year later, after deciding to start a label, it finally made sense to bring the two together.

wonderful ep. please welcome mr.vicmari from south africa to the eclipser family. this lovely, very talented guy gives us 3 beautiful tracks from his album. cab drivers kicks who could measure into another depth and makes us again a irresistible remix to take you on a deep trip. warm vibes & deep fun.

cardopusher appears as if by magic on super rhythm trax to drop four acid bangers. there are no frills or pretensions here, just jugular acid trax that dont mess around. straight up, solid and perfect for dark strobe lit basements. this ep channels the rawness with aplomb.

from the tropics comes whiskey disco, a sneaky re-edit label bent on dredging the decanter for diffident dancefloor genius from latent disco perpetrators. it is loosely connected to sleazy mcqueen and his assorted cohorts.

by now the leipzig based overdubclub got fixed in the heads of instrumental music lovers in germany outside the city boundaries. the concept and the unique sound of a beatmaker roundtable which focuses not just on each participants productions, but also on the jam character, shows through diversity and individuality what is possible when making music collaboratively.

pavel khudyakov aka brain crisis. a young producer making a sound that teebee has described as *like aliens mining a colony out of metal* and the producer to watch in 2014. brain crisis *hands up* is proper rude bwoy skanker and has become one of the biggest tunes in calyx & teebees dj sets. on the flip brain crisis & teddy killers join forces for *local 2* a cold piece of d&b pressure. creating a track that is full of bruising bass, techno fear & frantic drums.
