meander turns 10! beautiful representation of the past 10 years with previously unreleased music. the label celebrates their first decade with their second compilation, 5 years after the initial family jubilee. the result is a collection of 3 x 180g vinyl records. all discs are available individually, with limited special artwork. as a package it forms a distinctive reflection of meanders momentum. celebration collection

mathew jonson’s “decompression” was first released on minus in 2004. to celebrate 13 years since it’s release mathew has commissioned 11 artists to remix this classic split over 4 releases. the first ep of the series features remixes from dbridge, konrad black and nathan jonson, each artists contribution provides a fresh approach to a package fuelled by the influence of drum & bass. dbridge steps up for two remixes, the first is warped and deconstructed, the second a high energy drum & bass belter. konrad black slows things down with a darker groove whilst nathan jonson’s ‘rewind to 96’ utilises rave tropes and chopped vocal samples. the package is a magnificent addition to the legacy of ‘decompression’ and coming next will be remixes from seth troxler, deadbeat, mike shannon and natalia escobar. mathew jonson’s “decompression” was first released on minus in 2004. this is the first release on mathew jonson’s new label entitled “freedom engine” mastered at scape mastering

180 gram vinyl. initial copies in hand-made screen printed sleeves. fresh, genre bending interpretations from barac (romania) and dbridge (uk). these two inspiring producers provide their modern touch to the contemporary dancefloor continuum: dbridge offers an up-to-date hybrid that straddles the line between techno and breakbeat, while baracs extended mix is a deep and hypnotic journey through space. dbridge represents a milestone when it comes to uk dance music. being part of the legendary drum and bass group bad company in the late 90s, running his extensive label exit records, and regularly releasing on boddikas nonplus, metalheadz, as well as r&s, he has gained an enviable reputation as a specialist with a modern take on techno and breakbeat variations.

continuing its ongoing theme of releasing records influenced by our vast universe, deep space, spirit and consciousness, meander presents the scorched earth ep by konrad black, a selection of advanced 101 techno infused break-beat science. with his sparse, yet highly considered discography, mr. blacks first output for meander draws key inspiration from recent earth-bound meteorites and the blinding light that follows.

this june will see the amam imprint return with guido schneider & jens bonds *if you* ep, accompanied by a remix from konrad black. all pressed on 180 gram vinyl.

in less than a year since first starting out, guy gerber’s rumors label has become one of the go-to outlets for considered, classy and cultured house music. after tastemaking and standard-raising releases from guy & dixon, lake people and chaim – as well as memorable parties everywhere from bpm to wmc - now the imprint offers up a fantastically strong and seductive four-track sampler entitled chinese whispers.

ready to get weird this summer? matthew dekay and lee burridge certainly are with the launch of their second imprint in 6 months following the success of their first label all day i dream. while adid represents their love of all things emotional and melodic and embraces thier signature sound perfect for their outdoor parties of the same name get weird will see releases geared towards the music they play after dark. a place to showcase more dubby, techy, slinky and sultry rhythms to hypnotize dancefloors when the sun goes down.

electronic arts pioneer, activist and researcher konrad becker (aka monoton) teams up with vocalist sela for a project with a mission: unveiling operations in a shadow world of mediated realities. linking 21st century technology to ancient communication practices in several directions at once the hypermedia wizard and the young viennese singer celebrate the powers of media over matter. sound becomes a weapon against operation systems of containment and to be buried alive by technologies of symbolic domination. operations not only gives a voice to radical discourse - but basslines and a deep groove.

this ep is somehow special for us because we’,ve been wanting the original track for 4 years…,. back then, this very track called ‘,san pellegrino’, by rj valeo aka isomer transition grabbed our attention. our first offer to release rj’,s music was declined because he had different plans for it at this time. but our enthusiasm never really faded out, and nearly 3 years later we simply asked him again. this time is visibly worked. the b side has been confided to british producer och, undoubtedly on fire at the moment with his excellent publications on trelik, pal sl, his own autoreply or more recently on all inn records. he delivered a powerful floor remix, designed for nocturnal peak times –, as the name ‘,och’,s 4am mix’, suggests.

following the huge success of niwa, his album for joris voorns green imprint and riding the constant wave of support for his productions on music man, freerange, clr, versatile and of course his very own perspectiv imprint, ripperton looks to continue and further his reign as one of the most respected producers in the business with the release of lost in colours.

produced by close friend black coffee, the original mix provides a suitably deep and meaningful platform for bantwinis heartfelt lyrics about phony relationships and, in turn, his soulfully immaculate delivery. lush afro-edged rhythms lead into smart bursts of trumpet, cool double bass-lines and stirring rhodes solos - a rich musical weave more than amplifying bantwinis performance.
a wealth of stylish remixes skilfully widens wasting my times dancefloor appeal. gallic house sophisticate rocco ups the tempo, cracking whip-smart beats against thumping kick drums and infectious metallic key stabs, as does paris kingpin dan ghenacia, thanks to a fiesty vocal remix and dub fusing gothic mood and jack-happy sass in fine style. ghenacias versions have already, in fact, become a thunderous week-in-week-out staple of his ibizan circo loco residency at dc10 this summer. elsewhere, real tone main man franck roger offers a neat, dubby riff on black coffees original production, injecting sweet balafon melodies and additional percussive pep.

we are back for another slab of genre-defying, ass-kicking, booty-shaking, timeless underground beats. get the curse music 07 features two cuts from the mysterious crackboy and two remixes from rising star gesaffelstein & toronto’s james teej. the question of crackboy’,s identity is burning everyone’s lips. who’s hiding behind this oh-so poetic moniker? theories abound, and rumor has it crackboy was last seen smoking on his pipe in the filthiest dens of the parisian underbelly. efforts to trace him since then have proved fruitless and until the next sighting, the enigma remains.
in spite of all this mystery one fact is crystal clear: with early feedback from ed banger’s busy p reaching the same conclusion that crackboy’s productions are solid gold, this is an ep with substantial crossover potential that will put the whole scene on the same wavelength.
