comes on nice chunky 180grams vinyl! september, back to school again. in one side one of our favourite house artists from paris: le loup. cant stop is a funky and solid uptempo banger and cherish pauses the bpms blowing our mind out to another world showing how versatile can le loup be doing house music. on the other side one of our favourite newcomer from holland: junktion. smooth talking and lazy grind tracks are simply straight forward house music, hedonist and actual, but with some classic tricks that reminds us, in some way, to old legends.

at the core of every contented family is a sense of balance, an emotional push and pull that helps stabilize the entire unit. a similar equilibrium anchors le loups second album, family. recorded in a remote cabin and a maryland basement, the record finds the middle ground between tribal rock, freak folk, and sonic experimentation.

le loup & takashi himeoka teams up for the 3rd binary sound

back from 90s

transmitting crucial beats from burlington, the vermont-based producers es-k and loupo have crafted a smooth, introspective long-player for the cold busted label titled symbiosis. holland-born es-k (essential knowledge) is known for his monthly spontaneous grooves series (where a collection of tracks are created in one sitting) and his vital 2016 album passages. fellow vt rhythm- wrangler loupo is also on the rise, with a recent album on the melody soul label named good company. this new collaborative release, symbiosis, is a brilliant meeting-of-the-minds, blending the styles of these two talents over the course of ten tracks. the result is deep and meaningful as well as groovy and headz approved, showcasing the duos penchant for envelope pushing in terms of atmosphere, melody, and rhythm.

paris player le loup and pura launch their new label shadow play with a four-track collection of avant-garde house music delivered boxfresh from the studio. as a solo artist, and one half of hold youth, le loup has cultivated a nuanced sound that is steeped in soulful jazzy influences, with a nod to the future and plenty of soul. on this first ep we’re presented with a showcase of this sound, and a hint at what’s to come on the brand new label… to get things rolling we have the very first track ‘the ancient ways’, which is quite laid back and minimal in its composition. there’s breathing space for the beats and bass, with an eerie atmosphere pervading throughout. ‘ygam’ is next up with a wobbly bassline, cosmic death rays and sinister effects lurking in the background - it feels like the soundtrack to a deep space thriller. on the b-side things get ravey with ‘acid surface’. retro breakbeats and stuttered toms support a dangerously alluring symphony of effects and pads. at the heart of the track is a deep subby bassline, transmitting an ancient, yet cosmic vibe.

french duo from montreuil (east paris suburbs), prince waly & fiasko proximo are big budha cheez. after several eps and mixtapes, the duo will release is first lp, lheure des loups on april 22nd, 2016. at 23 years old, the duo is recording on analog tapes their daily prose and pose on film rolls their unique néo-rétro style on the french hip-hop landscape. working closely with video maker clifto cream (nekfeu, myth syzer, jazzy bazz, kohndo) with whom they systematically reconsider the current rap game codes with their music, pictures and videos. listenning lheure des loups is a time travel which perfectly illustrate an authentic and original creative process.
the vinyl lp includes a download code.

killer le loup release incl the mole rmx

ark & pit spector continue their inspired journey with an extended ep full of groovy jams and absorbing rhythms for hold youth. the frenchmen have formed a potent alliance with a series of expertly-crafted, high-quality releases dropping over the last couple of years. on this new ep they go deeper into their sound explorations with five original works and a remix from their parisian buddy and hold youth member, le loup. first up, we go into bumping jazzy territory with ‘chauffage central’, a mesmerising cut with swirling pads, soulful vocal clips and a jaunty b-line. straight up after that, hold youth rudeboy le loup gives ‘chauffage central’ a funky little rework, throwing live sounding percussion, nubian vocal clips, trumpet parps and a pumping bassline into the mix which gives a totally different identity. the final track on side a, is a cheeky teaser called ‘petite ondée’. rolling out for just under two minutes the track has a muffled, jazz-esque feel to it with a warm rolling bassline and bright, sparkling piano keys. on the flip we kick off with ‘air conditionelle’, a lush, retro feeling with those oh-so-familiar heavy-hitting eighties snare licks. the bassline takes you to a new york city street and the whole atmosphere is that of an old school nyc neighbourhood, while a spoken-word sample adds a human touch just before the track comes to an end. ‘sub tropical’ goes a little leftfield with an unusual combination of sounds in tandem with a pulsating low end, occasional sax licks and punchy percussion to give it plenty of energy. ‘averse et contre tous’ closes out the ep with a slothish ride into the sunset – ark and pit spector show their experimental side presenting an odd union between blues samples, gruff electronic sounds and piano keys. another triumphant effort from ark and pit spector, in fact, some of the finest work to date. make sure you check it out!

le loup prowls a lot by night with his bougs, in château d eau area or in some other parisian african districts. the 2 original tracks seek to express the moods of those meanderings in the sweaty clubs and dark bars, where the players and pimps order champagne magnum bottles and dance collé serré against the walls with some hot chicks. forget the eiffel tower and the champs elysées: this is the real underground side of paris. dewalta was just back from an us tour when he started to work on the champagne magnum remix. but one remix was definitely not enough compared to all the inspiration he had absorbed during his travel. he finally offered us 2 champagne magnum remixes: one filled in with the soul of lake michigan, and the other chilled by the cold wind of illinois. 4 tracks for dance, sweat and feed your soul.

adult only shape is back with an intriguing collaboration, between the mysterious frenchie monsieur georget and young parisian talent le loup. a combination of the old skool with the new skool, the sounds are just that. each take a pounding bass and a solid minimal-tech stance and layer their character on top. a1 is scattered with futuristic bleeps and computerised murmurs, interspersed with reminiscing vocals, while a2 is the most raw in nature, with a tough techno feel until the smooth overtones set in and a feeling of euphoria takes over. but some may say b1 is say arguably the standout track, for its intoxicating vocal and irresistible underlying swing and groove.

aux-rec is back for its fourth project, following the >baker man< edit by soul clap (so good it became an official remix on laid backs label), first class remixes by franco cinelli and the >caught up< bootleg by le loup & funkalicious james aka childhood 87. we are feverish to bring you today two new bomb bootlegs by argentine top producers leonel castillo and lexdinamo. those in the know have been familiar with these names for over ten years now and know how rare their productions are. as a matter of fact, this is probably the first time you will be able to get your hands on such bootleg productions from these two cats. leonel castillos signature shuffly blend is unmistakably recognizable on this a-side, on which he pays his tribute to one of the most emotional soul masterpieces by the dells, the 74 released >i wish it was me you loved<, bringing it into full dancefloor effect. lexdinamo does what noone did before, jumbling even further one of bobby mcferrins most genius vocal medleys, >drive<. avid bootleg followers may have previously heard this version, but we just cant get enough of it! coming up! more works by aux-rec regulars franco cinelli, leonel castillo and soul clap! stay booted!

so sound recordings latest acquisition to its roster is a trio from hannover, germany and they are called les loups. ladies and gentlemens if you thought that >french house<was a cool style of music back from the late 90s and early 2000s, think again, because felix littkemann (18), antonio dominguez (19) & philipp landmann (20), are ready to start a disco revolution. being influenced by jazz, indie rock, french house, hip hop the three got together and started to produce french house based on disco samples from the late 70s and early 80s, creating their own trademark sound which is so fresh!

in just a matter of months, life and death has swiftly established itself as purveyors of quality contemporary dance music, made by artists who would undoubtedly make anyone s short list of who i d like to invite to my afterparty . it seems only fitting then that with their newest release they ve recruited the undisputed kings of late night mayhem and madness for a paen tribute to that beautiful party after the party, the continuation of all things good and twisted.. the afterparty itself. not to take the issue of such a joyful celebration lightly, dop has gone on secret missions over the last 6 months, quietly (and often not so quietly) infiltrating afterparties worldwide and secretly extracting pituitary secretions from the rowdiest party goers at each of them. they then took these secretions, burned them in a special voodoo ceremony and immediately went into the studio to create a fitting tribute to the after-hours festivities we all hold so dear. once that was complete, friends were invited and even more deviants came to the party for some dirty late night remix action. clockwork (who s recently released it s you again on hot creations has already been the soundtrack to many an after party) are here, french wolf+lamb collaborator le loup is here, mas collective (who recorded on seminal nyc label strictly rhythm) is here and marius & david are here too.. everybody giving it their own special flavor. what an afterparty indeed.

support from laurent garnier, deetron, manik, osunlade, brothers vibe, ian pooley, peter kruder, dj yellow, zdar, le loup, dave dk, okain, arnaud le texier, hector romero
