shooting stars john dahlback and dk7s mark o sullivan strike 2 killer blows as they launch their new label jm recordings. i saw your eyes is a mid set acid triggered tech stomper,driven by a sinister vocal hook, a pure celebration of those of us who have flown too close to the sun. while when you caught the sun clears the air with its lush crisp synth sounds and driving bass. the gravity pull of this stunning release will drag you into its orbit which is of course the centre of the dancefloor

formed of laura lee on bass, mark speer on guitar, and donald “dj” johnson on drums, khruangbin’s sounds are rooted in the deepest waters of world music infused with classic soul, dub and psychedelia. their 2015 debut album ‘the universe smiles upon you’ was heavily influenced by 60’s and 70’s thai cassettes the band listened to on their long car journeys to rehearsal in the texan countryside. ‘con todo el mundo’ takes inspiration not just from south east asia but similarly underdiscovered funk and soul of the mediterranean and the middle east, particularly iran.

berlin producer troy gunner marks a new step in an ascendant career with the introduction of his very own imprint. simply titled ‘gunner’, this project will be predominantly vinyl-focused and will act as a platform for his own productions as well selected peers. it kicks off with 3 of his own tracks - all of which carrying a chilly quality whilst bearing troy s distinctive blend of stiff drums, heady atmospheres and muscular low end. support from resident advisor, dj mag, mixmag, zenker brothers, moxie, hodge, mickey pearce, xxxy, mj cole, john osborn, brendon moeller, carl craig, ivan smagghe, woz, christian martin, claude vonstroke, gorgon city, groove armada, tensnake, james zabiela, richy ahmed, my nu leng, altered natives, danny tenaglia, horse meat disco, huxley, phaeleh, gene farris, eddie temple-morris, shadow child + many more.

we’re seeing red! promnite’s absolutely mental snake charmer ep gets the physical edition it deserves. this ain’t no soundcloud special — snake charmer is a four-track dive into life itself, showcasing the collaborative songwriting chops, elevated sound design and alwaysfunky approach that makes promnite one of the most exciting young producers in the game. this cali-via-nyc producer (and co-founder of la’s beloved athletixx dj collective) eschews run-of-the mill bangers for the bittersweet turn up of “gunsmoke,” featuring denzel curry, nell, j.k. the reaper and twelve’len, and short-story worthy clubland tales on “ride around” with adam vida. meanwhile, prom’ssmooth stepper “call me” with mark johns nuzzles up against the space-age trunk rattle of “cruise’n usa,” featuring ladonnis. promnite is bringing the love back to club music. for all their futuristic thump and sonic precision, the tracks on his snake charmer ep are wonderfully, messily human.

the totality of the many in one: cologne tape, an on and off gathering band from all over the world, did not call their second album welt without reason. the collective incorporates the nucleus of the label magazine and consists of the artists ada, barnt, jens-uwe beyer, jörg burger, john harten, philipp janzen, mario katz, john stanier and axel willner. all members live scattered between berlin, cologne and hamburg. they meet rarely and abruptly, but each of them always has the feeling that something relevant needs to be done. the ensemble’s name represents a city and the musical recordings that are made in it.their -rst release, -render-, marked the start of the label magazine in 2010 and found the way into dj sets by famed artists like dixon with music, which does not necessarily have the dancefloor in mind. subsequently, little, absolutely sublime pieces of cologne tape appeared in the public.

long celebrated as the hottest funk band around, with a sustained tenure of fiery singles and a distinctive northern funk sound, the haggis horns are coming at you with their latest track! exclusive to stutter & twitch, outta my head has been re-recorded and re-released, renovating hh tantalizing sound into an, ass shaking hit for the ages! 3rd march will see the horn s twelfth release in as many years, with str004 marking our funkiest release to date! side a, outta my head gives you the haggis horn s sound that we all know and love, bringing a classic, carefree warmth just in time for spring, with a rejuvenated angle! destined to be an instant classic, the seven-piece have besieged the track with ample horns, enticing keys, frenzied backing vocals all in a killer verse/chorus/solo combo. a contagious sing-a-long and a party starter, all in one! side b give me something better is an example of established producer/artist, werkha shying away from the electronica norm of decapitating funk standards of their soul. by adsorbing the rhythm, and imparting a creative flair and organic sounds with an infectious curiosity, werkha places the funk innovators in an augmented light.

it’s not every day you find a keyboard player with chops like john camp. plucked from the same minneapolis jazz vine that grew such deliciously ripened talents as no regular play s greg paulus and aaron james (gregory porter band), we met camp for the first time at the marcy hotel. initially adding his signature touch to other’s crew love records and last year dropping an incredi- ble ep on have a killer time, the mistral ep marks his first official crew love release!

fatdog records returns after a break, offering contributions from 3 artists new to the label - the rutan, tom mc connell and mark hand. fdr003 offers a development from the deep house template on the last ep, this time taking us further into deeper detroit territories. mark hand offers us drexciyan techno in the form of cold feet. the rutans fable sits somewhere between vakula and some of henrik schwarzs earlier dub-house experiments, while fat dog takes us to the murky back alleys of his mind with jaffa cakes. finally tom mc.connells juniper takes us into wonkier groove rhodes stylings which rounds off the ep very nicely indeed. support by john heckle, afrikan sciences, lay-far, enrico (neroli), sonars ghost (2000 black), burnski, wolf music

the peer pressure ep from the under-rated mark forshaw finds scenery records once again highlighting the rich strain of local production talent in the liverpool area. involved in the merseyside scene since the 90s, forshaw has released on labels like mathematics, tabernacle and apartment and is also a member of phantom planet outlaws with john heckle and binny. if you ve checked forshaw s prior output you will be happy with peer pressure as soon as the grubby, jacked up house of the title track hits its groove, with his four other cuts heading down a similarly unpredictable path. kudos to scenery for seeking out swedish producer daniel andreasson to remix the title track too! this is another no nonsense ep from scenery that is lovably rugged and unpredictably creative

honey dijon has been part of the classic dna since day dot. a long-time friend to both derrick carter and luke solomon, honey has produced, remixed, dj’d and partied for and with classic for many years. although previously compiling a compilation for classic she has surprisingly never had her own release on the label. 2015 see’s honey releasing two separate eps on classic with both ‘’thundah’ and ‘burn’ being inspired by the classic 90’s nyc house music sound and produced in homage to honey’s friend frankie knuckles. the ep’s come backed with remixes from hnny, luke solomon, terrence parker and mark brydon all adding their own distinct flavour to honey’s concoctions. this exclusive double header vinyl ep release gives just a taste of what to expect
