• mastered by christoph at d&m saturated, sunburnt techno from the heart of the uk. this raucous three-piece have had several solo records between them over the last 12 months but nothing quite this raw... acid lines that burn down warehouses, pads that shoot a ray of light through the darkness and intense industrial machinations mark this out as an exceptional debut !

phiorios animals release has been a labour of love. after co-running metroline limited for the past 6 years and after a series of digital releases and remixes for both metroline and retrometro (as well as letroom limited and mbf amongst others), phiorios vinyl debut on ml finally sees the light of day. the choice of remixers has also been laborious but over at metroline hq we are really happy that in the end we managed to secure two stunning reworks by the likes of the more and more in demand french producer doubtingthomas (with releases on labels such as hummingbird, organic and of course, metroline limited) and the super-hot up and coming russian producers adjustment bureau

the phrase *feux follets* from which archipel 105 draws its title, comes from the latin ignis fatuus, and translates as will-o’-the-wisp. the etymology reaches back to old folktales in which ill-intentioned spirits would cast an atmospheric glow at night, in order to lead weary travellers astray. today, the term refers to ghost-lights - artificial light reflections caused by decomposing organic emissions. anyway you choose to understand it, this music contains the mysterious and unattainable. feux follets are meant to depict an elusive (and perhaps also illusive) ambition. a tense equilibrium colours the constant, foundational sounds with aleatory movements. the compositions are detail-oriented, and boldly explore their tangential elements.

from the two individually revered artists seuil and le loup, comes the debut lp under their collaborative dj/producing alias hold youth. a collection of dance-orientated tracks, designed to make the body move, de la club explores the origins of hold youth’s fundamental influences to their modern day stance.a lp in two parts, the first vinyl is almost a retrospective of primarily state-side club sounds, but also of the pair’s early musical staples. paying homage to old skool production, the inspiration drawn from the detroit greats like moodymann and andres is clear on the funked-out, jazzy vibes of street my baby or the smooth flowing les enfants du soleil. hold youths love affair with head-bobbing hip hop also makes an appearance on the intro and outro, sampling the one and only j dilla, perfectly combined with their own personal beat-boxing. not forgetting their french 90s roots, kool & the boug oozes that warmth defined so well by pepe bradock and trankilou… a club track which has the power of subtlety to submerge the dancefloor that one level deeper. part two looks to the example of german minimal and micro house and brings us up to date with the sounds fresh from hold youth’s record bag today. be it the weird and murky territory of dodge this, or the eerie, glitchy world of black dog, their modern vision of de la club is darker and sturdier in its stature. but it is the ability to weave seamlessly between the lps two halves, two ideals, which truly characterises the hold youth ethos and their signature djing style.

lux rec continue their endless research at the margins of music, what is underground, at every latitude, to find rough gems and bring them to light. after a series of releases which explore techno in various ways, they turned their attention to another field. that of the cold electronics and new wave movement, and french musical existentialism. cold colors comes from bordeaux, france. to lux rec he is the best expression of and a new take on that type of music. a sense of solitude is the first reaction to his music. melodic longings for something that is not there, unreachable. four songs to depict a hopeless stare into emptiness. shadows of a love long gone.

one of these things is not like the others. put veteran producer and general madman eddie ruscha (aka secret circuit, laughing light of plenty, dadamunchamunky) in a studio with the spritely whipper-snapper diego herrera (aka suzanne kraft & 1/3 pharaohs) and your results will be nothing less than an epic jam. as the name blasé suggests, their laxadasical style and confident panache is abundant. the duo ease into their productions with a cool hand and an open mind, letting the moment take them somewhere foreign to bask in surreal surroundings, but not without documenting the trip.

last magpie makes his electric minds debut with the *influences* ep in april. the eps three original tracks combine the producers knack for punchy uk club tracks with elements of the pioneering electronic music that have informed his music tastes. inspirations from classic hardcore, jungle and garage loom large on ep opener *mirdad*, while *pledge* takes things on an electro tip with nods to the sounds leading mid-2000s exponents. *i love me* juxtaposes light and moody elements for a heavier take on disco and chicago house, while the ep is completed by a sublime trevino remix, as the soulr boss reshapes *pledge* into the kind of tough, hypnotic house he has made his forte.

corbu are an electronic, indie-rock band from brooklyn, new york spearheaded by producer and multi-instrumentalist jonathan graves. corbu are jonathan, todd hoellerman (drums, keys), amanda scott (synths, percussion), julian ferraldo (guitar, keys) and brian murphy (bass, keys). named after french architect le corbusier, the band has a strong creative aesthetic. graves writes the music from visual ideas, which he translates into sound. corbu songs are often heard partially or entirely in dreams, and are influenced by films, physical spaces and a childhood love of nature and science fiction. and it works. corbus music is beautifully crafted, taking the listener on a journey from day to night, through exhilarating sunsoaked sonic landscapes to land softly on the surface of the moon. jonathan began singing and playing different instruments at age nine, and eventually fell in love with samplers and their ability to bend conventional sounds into something abstract and new.

dehnert has continued to steer his fachwerk label through the techno undergrowth and it has now amassed more than 25 releases in all. at the heart of the labels output has been dehnerts own increasingly experimental techno and this new album is testament to the producers continued exploration of the form. where framework was, in the words of mike himself, focussed on the heavy techno form, this album explores broken bass, swinging house and beatless electronic experimentalism amongst other things. i love to release music. i still enjoy the album writing process very much, says mike, before adding, i have noticed that sometimes the succe ss of a track depends on the light at club, which is why the album is called lichtbedingt, meaning depends on light! the album starts off with a suitably sombre intro that features cold, slowly shifting synths.

graze minerals possess a superlative lustre, which is most notably seen in diamond. such frequencies are transparent or translucent in nature, and have a high refractive index. tones with a true adamantine lustre are uncommon, with examples being cerussite and zircon. mweapon minerals display luminous bass bands, which appear to move as the specimen is rotated. such frequencies are composed of parallel fibers, which reflect sound into a direction perpendicular to their orientation, thus forming narrow bands of light. the most famous examples are fm and subtractive, but the effect may also occur in other sound banding - such aquamarine, moonstone and tourmaline. scrap minerals consist of thin transparent co-planar sheets. light reflecting from these layers give them a lustre reminiscent of pearls. such minerals possess perfect cleavage, with examples including muscovite and moss opal.

ein album im sinne klassischer songwritertraditionen. natürlich angereichert mit anleihen an ihre detail-versessene und floor-berauschende aneignung von house, aber überdeutlich zu einem in sich geschlossenen sound-kapitel verdichtet. es ist ein album, das neben der kooperation mit bostons e-funk wizard tanner ross auf zwei stücken vor allem in zusammenarbeit mit dem englischen sänger und musiker chris james entstand. james, der unter anderem auch mit seiner band stateless auf ninja tune und !k7 veröffentlicht, hat einen wesentlichen anteil an der strahlkraft dieses albums. seine wärmende stimme und seine intuitive entwicklung von gesangsarrangements fruchteten augenblicklich mit den vorstellungen der berliner produzenten und so erarbeiteten sie letztendlich elf gemeinsame stücke ...

having lent her talent to the recent floating points ensemble ep, label mates and long time collaborators fatima and floating points once again join forces to sprinkle a little magic over the airwaves. deep, warm, and soulful in its entirety, the follow you ep showcases the natural chemistry between the london based/swedish born singer and the ever impressive boy wonder sam shepherd. the eps four tracks are a cohesive expression of fatimas inner thoughts and feelings, wearing a warm heart boldly on its sleeve as the pair journey through soul, gospel, blues and house... allowing the songstress to pour her emotions over floating points fuzzy, full bodied beats and keys like it was honey over a pancake.

somewhere along the line the true spirit of the ku was lost in a sea of buddha bar pish and the anaemic meanderings of anyone with a nine bar and a spanish guitar. thankfully, nado uncork their bottle of vintage san rafael dust and sprinkle it liberally over their seventh release to put the sun and fun back into the balearic discotheque. and who better to call upon for authentic 80s oddities than the irrepressible brenda ray, who has plunged into the naffi hq archive and plucked out four vivacious (& previously unreleased) gems, wholly deserving the full light of day.

the second album by valanx called >ejecta< (18-diam.) gets the remix treatment. four artists, each with their own unqiue sound, have reworked their favourite track of the album and gave the music their own twist and sound. the exaltics turns >beyond doubt< into a dark brooding metallic industrial beast with a strong and dominant sub bass line that will damage your speakers.crc, one half of the finnish electro masters morphology creates a trippy psychedelic techno epic on his take of the track >chasm< and showcases a masterpiece of drum programming and creation of atmosphere. on the flip, >trail of conjuration< gets the remix treatment by admx-71 aka adam x. his version takes the tribal aspects of the original and turns it into a dark industrial techno drenched track that immediately lets you think of an old abandoned warehouse drowned in strobe light and fog and a massive rave taking place.last but not at all least it is louis haimans turn and he creates a wonderful deep dub techno track out of >legion v2<. the sub bass and deep chords are whirling and will hypnotize the listener with endless echoes and reverbs. 300 handnumbered limited vinyl copies only. no digital distribution
