"aaltopiiri is an album filled with alluring, ambient frequencies and hypnotic rhythms. tracks like kone and kierto stutter and groove, while elsewhere aanipaa and liuos provide lush, addictive pulses. they are often asked what the track & album titles actually mean when translated into english, but as they often invent or combine finnish words the "definitions" become quite vague. for example, a legendary maybe mythological low creeping mist from a particular area of finland or, a variant technological term for a certain aspect of a early radio wave experiments."

"another choice release from a legendary label: a breath-taking example of true musicianship ""you"" is a true soul stormer with impressive vocals by rob burns. dj spinna delivers one of his best house mixes to date!"

the 21st full length release on greyscale is by none other than the home town hero sraunus. a veteran of the label, we are thrilled to have the fellow lithuanian back once again. the depth of surrealismus is nothing short of amazing. how only 7 tracks feels deeper than any double cd set, we are still trying to uncover and understand the entire scope of this release. sonically, it is a true gem of pushing the limits. idea wise, this album is cohesive and awe-inspiring. holowuka is beautiful and gentle opener. it sets off a serene almost deep sea diving atmosphere with the long delays and low frequency chords vibrating through. the melodic elements open up even more, a vast world as the track evolves. from the low key and moody to the pumping aggressiveness that is hroniglas ii . a true monster with a sick combination of trance and deep techno thrills. jueootas conjures of memories of 1990s ambient techno with the light and airy feeling of nostalgia. a lovely adventure on the high seas. jurgynas continues this theme with a beautiful ride into a sound that is blissful and forever. some of the most soothing dub techno we have heard yet. lapunai is another strong candidate for being our most favorite on the album. featuring what sounds like excerpts of violin s over some amazing layered melodies. a shinning moment and a perfect example of a dub techno track s emotional potential. lastly, ramunanas submerges us in a beatless (but not bassline-less) sphere of magical and shimmering sounds. a true master-class of more ambient dub techno. sraunus is back and if surrealismus is any example of what he has in store, then everyone should bookmark his choice where he shares his latest news. we think this could revival any dub techno release for album of the year. it s that good!

greyscale is set to release its 18th full length cd and this is by one of the busiest and most well respected newer stars in the scene, heavenchord. >o theos einai agapi< is 9 tracks deep of some of the most floaty and serene tracks in our discography. >cloud forest< opens up with a wonderful example of whats to lie ahead. its wide open layered chords arc and shimmer over a soothing spatial background. >deep dimensions< is prone to draw out emotions of long lost memories as you drift along to its echoed-out airy atmosphere. this album isnt fully beatless. there are a few remnants like on >summer grey session< which introduces a broken tech groove while >summer vibes< has you riding on warm waves of calming and peaceful dub goodness. >rare 3< strong chord work shows heavenchords adept craftmanship in this genre that is well beyond his years creating music. the depth created in this album might be its lasting impression. whats not there is as important as what is there. a true shining moment in production!

as both a producer and the helmsman of the outis music label, dino sabatini has carved out a distinctive musical style that shows a great reverence for both ancient archetypes and future possibilities for change (see, for example, his mnemosyne co-release with edit select, in which each track is dedicated to a separate greek goddess). with one foot planted in a mysterious past and the other foot planted in a world yet to arrive, sabatiniÕs works are carefully realized emotional journeys that intertwine shimmers of optimism with undercurrents of poignancy or nostalgia.

the art of omission is a craft new jersey native joey anderson masters like few others. after releasing his acclaimed debut album after forever in 2014 and the 1974 ep earlier this year, anderson returns to the dekmantel label serving up the signature sound we love him for. invisible switch is the perfect example of what anderson can do with very little, catapulting him to one of the finest and most original techno and house producers to date.

2methyls first full length album is both a feast for the dancefloor and an example of creativity. following the orb ep, layer8 is a hard, fast album of futuristic dark drum n bass. but it is also an example of how to bring this genre forward while staying true to its energy. very complex and detailed, the nine tracks of this album play with the rules of modern days drum n bass and burst out of their restraints, resulting in an album whose horizon is beyond the dancefloor and which impresses by its magnitude and originality.

this collection documents the two-decades-plus recording career of r&b icon luther vandross. even before he started putting out records under his own name, he was a first-call session singer (hes the one who created and sang the chorus hook on david bowies -young americans,- for just one example). throughout the 80s and the 90s, he was (both commercially and aesthetically) one of the most consistently successful r&b singer/songwriter/producers. this healthy two-disc selection of highlights from the impressive vandross catalogue moves deftly from heartfelt ballads (-a house is not a home-) to percolating, poppy numbers (-never too much-), spotlighting the mans mellifluous voice and tasteful phrasing at each turn. this is quite clearly the definitive career summary for this deeply influential r&b titan.
