after one year since the first release night visions, the nightdrivers team is back for another race on their own imprint with a bunch of fresh, obscure and rolling bangers named nightlights: the record starts with the mutant and spastic tech funk of the epic bright lights, a totally sweat walled basement track where a dirty, crispy and crunchy disco break combines with an edgy, syncopated 909 driving beat while a cheeky melody of party-bells going slightly out of tune runs on the top of it.

yet another classic master reese production from the vaults. this time from way back in 1991. -speaker punishing- was a stone cold detroit killer that crossed over here in the uk and european rave scenes due to it s break-beat laden hardcore appeal, string quartet samples and incessant bass-line while it s flip-side -feel the mood- carries that after hours detroit vibe over two different mixes (ably mixed by the legendary marty bonds) and still sounds amazingly fresh and current today some 20+ years later. both tracks are essential weapons to have in one s dj bag and display what a versatile producer kevin saunderson is with two totally different energies sharing the same slab of wax. re-mastered, re-pressed and re-released for 2015 with all original incognito label artwork with the full consent of kevin -master reese- saunderson, detroit mi. essential!

jon hopkins begann seine musikalische laufbahn 1999 im zarten alter von 21 jahren. er arbeitete mit brian eno und david holmes zusammen, war an der produktion dreier coldplay-alben beteiligt und erhielt für sein album *immunity* 2013 eine mercury prize-nominierung. seine late night tales session klingt wie ein requiem für einen traumort, irgendwo zwischen himmel, hölle und dem überfluteten themse-delta. technobeats und verzerrungen mögen vorkommen, doch der blick des zuhörers wandert gefangen und verträumt über die weiten eines offenen ozeans bei nacht. wir begegnen den komponisten nils frahm und ben lukas boysen, den warp-acts bibio und darkstar, jonsi & alex von sigur ros, den grace jones-samplern holy other, sowie künstler wie four tet, alela diane, school of seven bells, health und david holmes. garniert wird diese außergewöhnliche zusammenstellung mit einem exklusiven jon hopkins pianocover des yeasayer-songs *i remember*, sowie mit einer spoken-word-erzählung des produzentenkollegen rick holland.

nice price deal !!! the very first release of the new >somos< imprint curated by alejandro mosso. a label intended to enlarge the family and serve as a platform for related artists who share similar aesthetics. expanding the mosso label manifesto into a larger community. ! joachim holm, a young talented and skilled producer from trondheim (norway), wrote some unique and mesmerising wooden melodies which became the foundations of these two songs. alejandro added some extra production and a beautiful record came to life. ! tre rytme, the rhythmic version, focuses on the main melodic motif while adding an intense and pulsating beat. morphing slowly but firmly into a club burner. a spring optimistic piece ready to add a spark of life into any dancefloor. ! tre melodi is the soft and mellow version. a 12 minutes ride of polyrythmic, repetitive and hypnotic riffs, recalling american classic minimalism in an innocent and playful manner. take the time to listen until the end, it promises to be a comforting experience.

first part of the *music is dead* album by olaf hund.

position 12 inch is a story telling record inspired by the childhood of romain azzaro, aka rouge mécanique. one introduction and two dance pieces extracted from the crude reality he had to experience at an early age. the evolving sound of this ep throws its listeners into the dark and violent places that belong to his past. the childish melody of the intro suddenly opens on an intense break beat and ends with vimory, a brutal and profound track.

a club in the parthenon basement where you cant see in front of you, you lose yourself as the antipodean heat beat surrounds you. this is the latest imagination of melbourne-based band leader nicolaas oogjes. marrying into a greek family (his wife contributes spoken word on two tracks), oogjes became fixated with hellenic culture and its impact on humanity, prompting his rotating cult of collective consciousness musicians no zu to spiral deeper into their celebration of global rhythm and percussion. their even weirder, sparser and more synth driven sound is the result of creative exchanges with home loan records ceo michael ozone, who helped them realise the strange and complete world of medusa music.

this is the ninetieth release on the ongoing resopal series. furthermore it is cavaan s first release on the label with arguably their most accomplished tracks to date. on the a side the guys spread their alternative vision of house music all over and roll out the tightly arranged amphid lampshade, characterized by impulsive beats, rhythmic synths and musical knowlodege. on the flipside, track metamorphosis builds upon several layered synths, resulting in a floor effective dense catacomb of sound. both tracks pay great attention to detail, are hard to pigeonhole and reach from modern house to far-out beat driven techno.

this 10 inch contains 2 unreleased vinyl versions in extended mixes that can make your day. the merits of van bonns releases on telrae, trapez and on van bonn records you can find in his new release -unbound-. the attractiveness of repetition has made its way into this ep... and it was a good choice. we kick off with -king-, a track which is a cross breed of a stubborn beat and a dub techno feeling showcasing a melodic intermezzi that flies in and out with a mind of its own. more minimalistic than most of the tracks you know from him, it includes unexpected half baked sounds you would not expect from van bonn. on the other hand the epic 10 minute monster -distinct- is a real dub techno giant and a soundtrack at the same time... with beats that take you by the hand.

since its inception in 2009 slow motion has set the standard for new wave of italian dance music producers. with over 15 releases in the archive the italo/berlin based label is now about to drop its first ever compilation italian dance wave. bringing together some of the secret weapons that label boss franz underwear has had tucked away in his record bag with brand new tracks from the likes of clap rules, bottin and riders of the lost arp this compilation packs a mighty punch with its 22 tracks.

long standing sonic groove artist realmz returns with his latest release nocturnal realm. a stunning four track ep of diverse techno sounds.the ep starts off with air supremacy a mechanical broken beat laden industrialized techno track that oozes with machine funk. continuing into the depths of the sonic groove is circulation. a rhythmic 4/4 pulsating workout which commands its way thru the speakers with a swath of fury. swinging the mood over into deeper melancholic grooves are the thought provoking hypnotic melodies of songs metamorphic and architecture of time. two tracks that dig deep far inside your mind. realmz clearly shows creative versatility on this ep. another great releases from this very original sounding artist

san francisco-based dj/producer nick monaco has long been part of the soul clap family, releasing his first 12- on the label back in 2012. mating call, a double 12- set running at album length, is easily his most expansive release yet. it s typically eccentric, delivering a range of songs - featuring his own distinctive vocals - that blend numerous styles whilst retaining a loose, funky and altogether rather kaleidoscopic feel. it s rooted in balearic pop, but also touches on dub, deep house, boogie, dub disco and a strangely deep and contemporary take on the triple-beat rhythms of glam rock. it s hard to accurately describe, but is really rather good, certainly, it s one of soul clap s strongest releases of recent times.

a gorgeous set of synth-driven, beat-bound soundscapes rich in atmosphere and suspense.

the debut release on office recordings is the first part of a series produced by label founder baaz. in my mind is a subtle, shiny piece of jazzyfied house music with a steady rolling groove and dirty kickdrum. glim bangs the box with deep dubs and a sexy vigorous groove. the flip starts with two mind bending downbeat cuts with a stumbling beat. last but not least a slowburning remix of way out citti by matthias reiling (sessionn victim, giegling recordings) and björn astrup who did a brilliant job twisting the original into a soulful homage to the slow side of house music.

debut ep by slugbug, we get four tracks of dark electronic hybirds made for the open minded dj and club-goer. somewhere between the blurred lines of new wave tinged beat tracks, off-kilter electro and psycho-house this record is made to make you work and the club sweat. not to be missed.

at the tail end of the 90s, gregory darsa played around with a number of pseudonyms before finally settling on his now familiar dj gregory alias. one of those abandoned aliases was headcore. it was used for a single ep back in 1998, released on chateau flight s label, versatile (then in it s infancy). here, that ep gets a welcome reissue. it s aged rather well, with all four tracks - explorations of deep house themes with occasional nods to the dubby, african-influenced style darsa would later explore on the africanism project - sounding as fresh now as they did 16 years ago. picking highlights is tricky, but we re particularly enjoyed the sparse, swinging dub-house of -cage- (accompanied with a tasty drum dub) and the chez damier-influenced chug of -in & out

assiduous presents their first vinyl release which is full of deep richness and undiluted soul. side a contains heavy bass, synth stabs and a driving four to the floor beat that keeps the groove while a female vocal emerges later adding a bit of mysticism to the vibe on, meat and potatoes. side b brings to mind the sound of hard work in motion which is what the outfit, assiduous is noted for. an aggressive deep house attribute that is also laced with a soulful female vocal that seems to stir up a spiritual overtone into the mix on, no mo

iib s latest release is an ep from the clandestino crew. first track is a slo mo cosmic melodic acid dub. a beautiful early evening trip. this is remixed by the beat broker who adds a few sublime uplifting west coast sprinkles. the first track on the b side is a solid disco tinged house beauty with synth stabs subtle acid undertones claps and a great sample. the final track is beyond the sun. a mellow eastern tinged sundowner featuring another great sample. this ep really captures the original iib sound and philosophy. a real gem.

the new bomb on echocord colour comes from brendon moeller. brendon already did releases on echocord and echocord colour before, also on his monikers echologist and beat pharmacy. words from the artist: much in line with the label aesthetic, i set out with these trax to explore the dubbier hypnotic side of techno music. my goal was to present 3 trax that could be played at different times of the evening because ttheres nothing like giving a dj who has to carry a bag of vinyl around the world a record where each track can be played in one night! of course, the question rremains, are you a dj that wants to play 3 trax like this? if yes, buy this now.

some proper break beat rave tracks. including a rivet remix. pressing on transparent vinyl

its time for phonogramme to explore different styles and releasing one of its most successful project ! from france, kris tidjan composes music layers in the high sphere of soul jazz. playing most instruments by himself and singing, he also presents music live with musicians. on his first ep floating therapy he comes with feel the love & mystic bantu trip, african music accents & a strong rare groove touch, mastercut oriented under the supervision of professor inc. a1 featuring fela kuti s accent with an additional sax played by christian rodenberg while a2 reaches a 11:11 timing with peacefulness and aerial feeling.on the other side we go deeper into the artist s influences, ethnic vocals melted with tidjans * son of the sun* beautiful refrain & meimouna coffi at vocal chorus, some soul jazz broken beat like we rarely hear today, very strong and contributing to the genre greatly, * shining from the deep space*. for the b2 professor inc brings you a remix of feel the love in two part with a soulful vibe and deep house touch in the spirit of what he has already done for the label before.

dj spider & franklin de costa come along with a massive follow-up of their first single on killekill (cat number 016). second bass on the a-side is a bomb of a track with its jazzy beats, otherworldly strings and a bassline straight out of hell. comsume is even more otherworldly with its stumbling, shuffling beat and a spaced-out vocal sample taken from an unnamed sci-fi movies from the 50s. coffee break, the last track of the ep, is a deadlock groove of heavy beats and freaky breaks, that leaves you lost in time and space.

pvs is finally ready with the new release on his own label .the ep is composed of three tracks. the original version signed by pvs (h.omevvork label owner / m_rec ltd / key vinyl) is a overwhelming broken-beat techno. he remixes are signed by max_m (m_rec ltd label owner) and the spanish talent kwartz (polegroup).

florian kupfer is back. this time he shows a glimpse into his diversity and depth. starting in the familiar territory with his trade marked, blue eyed freaky soul vocals and rough beats before meandering his way through strangely sad blown out drum workouts and hip hop styled new beat tracks... comes with full color sleeve.

the title track offers up a delicious concoction of rhodes keys and smoky jazz inflections before a brittle synth and snatch of soulful vocal usher in an entrancing chicago groove. utterly moreish, it s a tune to stick on repeat. philpot label founder jackmate s devilishly playful version does exactly what a remix should do: give the original tune s elements a fresh twist while respecting its distinctive spirit. a pounding kick, astonishing in its rippling intensity, underpins off-kilter and pitched-up samples that somehow hold together for an exhilarating ride. -fish paul- marries spacey eno-esque drones to a pounding beat and crackling interference. testament to gaiaschi s years of directing and promoting parties and his dj residencies at milan s dude and tunnel clubs, it s a tune that embodies a fine-tuned understanding of the dancefloor. -the point- rounds things off with bright keys and crisp claps, to build a dreamy, skilfully layered groove.

metropolis- is it an actual city or a digital fantasy a construct formed inside a synthetic brain? either way this is the soundtrack to a city that exists somewhere. a place that comes alive at nightfall and breathes artificial light until dawn. where millions of human threads interweave, and a machine conciousness drifts by on the periphery, searching for an intimate connection. limited pressing.

visonia returns with the anticipated debut album release entitled, impossible romance. commencing with juana de arco, which edges finely the fragile border between expectant angst and hopeful optimism, this opening piece pretty much sets the tone for the album. undulating between the highs and lows of human emotion which beautifully encompasses visonias own conception of art to hold hands and contribute to humanity to give beauty, wisdom, or to simply open the listeners mind in order to reflect and ask questions of ones own self, ones own existence what we have here is at times a poetic soundscape of emotions, feelings, fears and positive expression. the album, in its double vinyl format includes the previously available collaboration with dopplereffekt, namely die reisen, alongside an equally striking collab with new wave/synth pop artist, mad moizel in the form of beat frequencies and late addition to the album – the sleek, driving vision of between lies and real looks
