hip hop, reissue

double vinyl and 20-page booklet included.

berlin duo local suicide and mexican producer mijo join forces to deliver two stunning original works for the latest installment of roam recordings. edo kai tora is a uptempo main time jam with a nice vocal weaved through driving electronic stylings. ganz falsch has an electro boogie feel with cosmic synths and a fun vocal rhythmically tying it all together.

supporting the ep are two excellent remixes from renowned artists sascha funke and simple symmetry. sascha funke s elegantly dark version creeps in with a hypnotic and captivating energy while simple symmetry moves into party mode with pop sensible guitars and heavy wonkiness perfect for picking up the vibe at any party.

all four tracks are standouts on their own and together form an outstanding versatile ep and excellent addition to the roam recordings catalogue.

edo is a personal view over the modern asia, japan in this case. inspired by the street sounds and bugged out day to day world of tokyo his debut ep is four tracks of slippery head music. chiseled from the deep seams of an intergalactic mine and informed by the dark heart of house and no wave disco this is club music from the oily underbelly.

paris-born, tokyo-raised, new york-based international eclectic french dj, music producer and sound designer alex from tokyo is very excited to announce the october 2015 launch of his record label world famous with a new tokyo black star ep (the first release in three years)!

bostons legendary mc edo. g teams up with producer duo red & spinache for this new, limited translucent, purple colored 7 inch vinyl single. *the great divide*, pressed on a beautiful, purple vinyl is a soulful hip hop anthem. side b, remixed by bodziers adds a gritty, boom bap flavour to the whole package. 500 copies available.

poll021 is the third vinyl project on the label from the big brother production trio and is one not to miss. somewhat based on the underground sound of milan, leo mas and friends have crafted a strong tech house project aimed at the dance floor with vocal snippets and processed vocal fx which generate a solid and deep groove. with house music in mind and a funked up baseline the project evolves into a tech driven journey into the unique sound from this three producers. on the flip side the boys have twisted up a remix version taking a deep edge of the actual original. a pure and deep baseline flows with minimal and solid drum programming.

played and supported by: italoboyz, pete tong, martinez, sety, misstress barbara, coyu... third release for the label which has been revolutionizing the italian electronic and underground dance scene: after the winter floorfiller no rulez ep signed by skyboy and edo pietrogrande (just to name a few dubfire, loco dice, 2000 and one, sis, raresh...have literally gone mad for without by skyboy), 7 oz records comes out with a killer summer dancefloor hit: donde estas y donde vas, produced by edo pietrogrande, friend and veteran of the label. big remix, expertly produced by david keno (keno records, kindisch)!!!

when michaela meise performed at westgermany at kottbusser tor in berlin-kreuzberg on march 20, 2015, accompanying herself on the accordion, i was perplexed. i knew her first album from 2010, which was about hymns (»preis dem todesüberwinder«, originally released on clouds hill, available as a download and stream through my label from july 2018 on), but what she was playing weren’t spiritual songs?! i wanted to put this music out on my label: the songs sounded sad, aloof and wistful but also proud, determined and unerring. the album title »i am greek« is a tribute to melina mercouri’s album »je suis grecque!«, which was released in 1971 when mercouri was deprived of citizenship by the greek military junta. mercouri lived – like mikis theodorakis and many other cultural workers – in exile. meise’s album is dedicated to the chanson scene of post-war europe, whose songs were popularly folksy, but also political. some talk about the experience of war, the shoah and labor migration.

dutch label field records is back with another special album project, this time from japanese producer ena aka yu asaeda. bridge is an introspective soundtrack for a documentary also called bridge - out this spring - which is about the dejima bridge, a reconstructed symbol of the dutch-japanese trading history in nagasaki, japan. the album finds the producer stepping outside of his usual remit of dark ambient and experimental music, and instead comprises ten shorter tracks that touch on abstract and rhythmic sounds that define the essence of japanese culture. although he has worked with the director before, this is ena s first original sound track and finds him freely inspired by the movie and heading in exciting and unknown directions. hugely atmospheric throughout, there is hypnotic repetition of sounds, strange audio design and a mixture of melancholic moods with more dreamy synths. sometimes gloopy rhythms gently ripple beneath soothing harmonies and at others times a micro-rhythm appears through the constantly shifting and evolving found sound loops. it s a compelling and unusual album that seamlessly mixes human emotions with a mechanical sense of industry.

the unlikelihood of being alive warrants expression. in the increasingly digital universe we are tangibly intertwined yet phenomenally disconnected. this creation of soundscapes defines dream-like iterations of a post-internet reality and is uncanny in its ability to quintessentially emulate potential futuristic states of being. it induces the uniqueness and highly emotive aspects of undefined existences. it is raw and purposeful. potatoheadz is a melbourne/berlin based, diy label created by nipuna jayasekera, leon wan & sam sedgwick. it is dedicated to the dispersion of local and international music focused on innovative artistry. unknown data set is their first record and third release featuring the music of various artists. 400 copies!

the artist/producer collective known as local-mu12 are back with a sophomore album called eeveryday people. the album features mc eiht, smif n wessun, guilty simpson, torae, ras kass, planet asia and more. it also features a variety of local-mu12 members such as stryfe, real mckoy, fokis, james moore, the manorail and more.

french composer and multi-instrumentalist pierre bastien delivers the latest entry into morphines increasingly diverse catalog. active for over four decades, bastien is best known for building automated orchestras, and his most recent lp, machinations, was released on aphex twin s rephlex label in 2012.
for this latest work, bastien recycled components of his silent motors live set and assembled new mechanical organisms—using amplified meccano parts, motors, fans, rattles, paper, and nails—to generate rhythmic scaffolding. live instrumentals, from prepared trumpets to the african kundi harp, javanese rabab, sanza, electric harpsichord, bass, drums, and gongs, were then superimposed on top.
