another sublime album by prism aka susumu yokota. originally released cd only in 1995. the 10 tracks beyond the time barrier.

3 tracks dipped in the label heads usual otherness lacing rhythm, and soundscapes that move the mind & feet. all 3 take an open ended approach while being held together with aybeeÂs affinity for deep rhythmic travels.

on this record we have the honour to present:
andres garcia with >lembran<
andres garcia produces electronic music. &#8232,,,everywhere from minimal techno to the open waters of cinematic sound.&#8232,,, everything for the dancefloor, the theatrical stage, the silver screen and your listening pleasure.
dandy jack & the metronome allstars with >39 steps<:
dandy jack is maybe better known for his incredible energetic live appearances, shaking crowds all around and turning audiences into a non-stop atmospherical body wave. together with other artists (like for the memorable narod niki 1st public concert at mutek 2003) or alone, in small clubs or bigger events, the german-latin effect has nothing to proove, just power to give.

van abbes fresh no comment release presenting 2 originals, a killer remix by the exaltics and a debut track by pantone 32. it wasnt until she opened the old pocket watch – its timeworn silver surface glimmering slightly in the darkness – that she understood that something was terribly wrong. it was audibly pounding in her hand like some kind of bizarre metal heart. and it was decidedly running backwards. she could not move and she could not take her eyes off the spinning indicators. >stop<, she whispered. then again, louder this time: >stop!<. the watch stopped and fell silent. she exhaled and moved uneasily on the spot. the floorboards creaked. wait. the floorboards? there werent any floorboards in her room. it was all concrete and glass and…. her room wasnt there anymore. she was standing in an old workshop brimming with ancient-looking machinery covered in sawdust. no-one was operating the equipment but their ghostly echoes were still floating through the air, buzzing, hammering, humming – almost melodic to her ears. the pocket watch came to life in her hand, acting as a steady metronome to the spectral orchestra. she wasnt home anymore. but it certainly was.

louis captures the secret life of techno in all his compositions. on metronomik, his stripped 808 grooves emulate the harsh time keeping of lifes metronome. warm, gentle washes and thoughtful melodies remind us of who we are in this time/space. ideal for home listening or inspired movement.

here come the james hunter six! ser ving yet another delicious dish of what you wish with the premier single off their upcoming lp, whatever it takes (dap-051). and ill be a monkeys uncle ifjames hasn’t delivered two of his most compelling sides to date on this one. i dont wanna be without you is a graduate level course in the three rs of r&b: rhythm, rhyme, and romance. a sultr y rumba sets the mood, as hunter swaggers in donning his finest voice like a crisp tuxedo, complete with ruffled vibrato and rhyming cuff-links and proceeds to lay on an absolute hear t-stealin, deal-sealin, panty-peelin gem. on the flip, i got eyes loosens the collar and brings the metronome mark up a few clicks for a punchy tightened-up workout, edged-up with vibes and street corner backgrounds. bring your talcum powder and a change of clothes cause its another jaw-droppin showstopper by that finger poppin pond-hopper, james hunter

the deepblak chief alchemist kicks of 2014 with his first ep since relocating to berlin, and reflects the different modes of the dancefloor experience as filtered thru aybees metronome. driving, atmospheric, and at times euphoric aybee melds these narratives into an ep that carries the emotional colors of an album. 22 meters also sees the vinyl release of akiara a long standing deepblak favorite from the blaktropolis 2 comp.

gobble gobble is a majestic and pulsating force drawing as much from the visceral and poetic indie rock of pixies as the electronic production of dan deacon or crystal castles, while remaining entirely unclassifiable. these canadians have created a grass-roots movement with their mobile rave infinitour 2010 which lasted from june to november and saw them playing suburban gardens, private homes, small indie venues, as well as pop montreal and cmj. hundreds of blog posts by the likes of stereogum and nme, a series of amazing singles, an appearance on debontons 2nd compilation, and a nomination by pitchfork as best new hope of 2011 have secured their position as poster children for the brave new pop scene. with boring horror they give their listeners not just the single by the same name, but also a b-side (eat sun, son) and two other original bonus tracks (seizure to the metronome, as well as two remixes commissioned by debonton to spice up the package. generous, emotional, exciting, and completely avant-garde, gobble gobble is a hurricane of freshness for the audience and the listener. limited edition of 500 units worldwide.

cool electro lp...from experimental to italo disco

born from a common will to showcase the maturity and versatility of his producer skills, im:ltd has taken the ambitious challenge to give to the extremely talented arp xp the opportunity to release his first ever solo album effort closer. gathering influences from over ten years spent in the electronic music scene, what were presenting is an accomplished twelve-track album with the finesse youd come to expect from the sardinian sun and bass resident and some more intriguing touches you might not. from the eerie dystopia of title track closer featuring the mournful vocals of estel luz, its clear that none of this release is concerned with brightening wintery nights. each track has a vein of inky blackness running through it, and whether its the clicking, mechanical metronome of standout single something wrong, the serpentine bass of sickness of time or the somewhat middle-eastern-infused bassy stomp of maybe tomorrow with that juddering electro clap, the first half of closer is deeper and darker than the baltic. even with tracks as forcefully dank and derelict as papercuts there are washes of tunes like uneasy, stunnas re-work of closer and the particularly exquisite. upon waves to counterpoint the gloom, showing some break in the clouds. you cant stamp the sunshine out of a mediterranean heart. trademark rolling reeses and distant euphoric pads belie,closers cynical sound gives away arp xps true intention,to simply make the best bass music album he can.
