originally released in 1986, “alkaid” was the first solo release of deca following his debut appearance on the cult various artists compilation “angelo segreti” the original edition was published in a tiny edition on the independent italian label videoradio and to this day remains a rare and sought after album. following mothball and bordello’s continued work with deca, we are proud to make this diverse and fascinating collection of music available to a wider audience. on this instrumental lp we can hear elements of modern classical, synth-pop, dark ambient and even some middle eastern influence.

deca (federico de caroli), composer and musician graduated in piano, for over 30 years is a protagonist of the italian electronic and experimental scene, then approaching to other fields such as theater, multimedia and television. he is a great summoner of dream suggestions and started from the lesson of cosmic school to arrive at a personal alchemy of tradition and innovation, clutching the paradigms of artificial sound on the natural one. he began playing in 1975 and in 1983 bought his first synthesizer starting a long process of creative evolution, playing in parallel bands that are inspired by the british new wave as joy division, the cure, killing joke and studying the dynamics of synthetic sound.

mothball record starts its 2016 release schedule with a bang by releasing their first lp. originally produced in a tiny edition of only 100 copies back in 87, this dark masterpiece from prolific italian artist deca finally appears as an official reissue on mothball (in collaboration with bordello a parigi) remastered from the original tapes. -synthetic lips- is an absolutely diverse album spanning industrial, synth-pop, ambient and even elements of new age...some tracks will hit immediately and others will reward repeated listening.

deca002 is bloodmans debut release and fine example of his skills as a producerdefining his own personal sound within the different branches of his work: remote viewing stands out as a powerful tune setting off the dancefloor with epic, evolving techno synths and heavyweight beats.

mannequin is sincerly proud to announce the second volume of the much acclaimed italian new wave italian compilation. danza meccanica is the latest, unmissable chapter in the story of italian post punk - the less traditionally rock branch. it outlines the approach taken by ten more or less unknown groups who all deserve rediscovery and to be remembered alongside luckier outfits. ten tracks that spell out the manifesto of a scene fascinated by electronic innovation, a scene that used the sounds coming out of english labels like factory, 4ad and mute as a reference point. the grey atmospheres and raincoats of a still-divided berlin, and those of manchester, which along with sheffield produced sounds destined to inspire future generations of musicians and producers. limited edition of 500 copies, 2 inserts

hotflush presents the debut collaborative release from arkist and kidkut, both based in bristol, uk. the title track is a four to the floor deep cut, adorned with subaquatic atmospherics, warm contours of bass and subtly stirring melodies, a magnificent pairing with scuba’s imprint. on the flip side, >vanilla imitate< maintains the vibe and amps the energy with a smart infusion of shuffling uk garage flavors and emotive soundscapes. arkists solo productions have been recently released on appleblims apple pips label, if symptoms persist, and deca rhythm. kidkut is the mastermind behind the immerse records label, which has been releasing quality bass music since 2006. his solo productions can also be found on apple pips and well rounded records
