nights get ever colder. the label owned by paris stalwart d’julz welcomes back an old friend in anonym, the man responsible for bcr006 and bcr021 returns for a four-track outing which includes a remix from orlando voorn. sultry atmospherics and masterful production are evident throughout this crisp new addition to the bass culture catalogue, another instant classic from the detroit badboy anonym.the first of the four tracks on this ep goes by the name of ‘castaway’, and its effortless groove will have you drifting away to a desert island the second you hear it. as a slightly obscured vocal repeats ‘castaway’ over and over, you’re lulled into a dreamlike state. simple and highly effective, its progression is subtle and invigorating. right after that we have dutch supremo orlando voorn taking charge of the remix and pushing the track deeper into celestial territory with flashes of synth that transport you out into the cosmos. the atmosphere of the original is expertly retained, with a steady pace and cool, mellow vibes throughout. flip the record over and there are two more killer cuts. first we have ‘doin it to ya body’, which keeps things minimal and straight to the point. bright disco strings lie at the heart of this track, slowly weaving their way in and out of the background while the drums and rugged b-line keep your feet moving and head bopping. lastly, ‘wara coco’ offers more hypnotic vibes drawing you with its dainty melody, dancing around the top end, while a mean bassline throbs away, deep down in the low end. it’s an strong combination and finishes off the ep in style.

having released a number of tracks for on level no zero, cocoon, escapism and tanzbar, the german guy from frankfurt, matt star finally breaks on our rounqube musik dropping his own ep after the appearance on the 2x12 roundqube family anniversary. radio ep is a crazy minimal microphunk four-tracker with 3 originals with precious bouncy remix of the main track reworked by the label ambassadors gabriele carasco and francesco passantino.

aesthete obfuscation (computer club) computer club presents aesthete (aka thom barnett) with his debut release obfuscation. a 4 track ep of bass-heavy minimalism. micro-precise percussion bursting through minimal electronics with chattering industrial machines, the 4 tracks take an experimental approach directly to the dance floor. we first encountered the unique aesthete sound in a dark former ballroom in sheffield in early 2016 and were mesmerised by his sonic assault. as the name suggests, barnett s skill isn t confined to audio. a talented designer, he runs mamnick, an internationally renowned brand sold online and via outlets including a flagship store in tokyo. mamnick clothes and items blend sheffield craftsmanship with a love of cycling and a sharp aesthetic eye. everything barnett turns his attention to is expertly crafted and this debut ep on computer club is no exception.

one of the holy grail of the minimal synth and one of the most obscure musical projects ever produced in italy is finally reissued on mannequin records. originally released in 1981 by broadbean records, a sub-label of lm records, flo & andrew only release take suicide was home-recorded and home-mixed by the duo in bologna, using early drum machines like the boss dr-55 and the korg kr-55, analog synthesizers, guitar, saxophone, tape loops. flo & andrew music is truly unique and exemplifies the fact that limitation can be the perfect source for creativity. the title-track and to committ suicid’ travel through contort and nervous synth sounds and loops, taking somehow inspiration from the no wave heroes, while japanese girls is nothing less than a beautiful minimal electronics track in the mythology of the futuristic rise of japanese country. recently (re)discovered, ‘take suicide’ is a milestone of the european minimal synth singles and is not really a coincidence that a young generations of producers take it as inspiration (you can see take suicide floating in the tracklist of artists as helena hauff and ngly). another must have in your collection / record bag! mastering by ruud 66.

monsieur blue is already getting some keen internet heads casting their theories about the identity of this debutant producer, but while they fret over such issues the rest of us will be getting down to this impeccable selection of deep grooving wares. this is razor sharp club music surely crafted by someone with experience, as the muscular thrust of track 1 suggests. there s a rugged charm in amongst the minimal disposition of the beats, which stands in contrast with the aqueous delights of track 2 or the housey funk of track 3. it s high grade dance music for djs and party people, plain and simple.

cool minimal groover from france!

ondon-based duo jamka return with inter alia, the latest evidence of their patient, intimate relationship with their analogue machines. from the start there’s a sense of event – we encounter clear, interlaced electronic textures, powerful analogue drones and well-placed beats. the tracks aren’t soundscapes so much as fertile electronic soundfields. patemp continuously expands in an incredibly subtle but powerful way and shows that jamka’s technical skills don’t preclude an emotional touch. on the tight and minimal anazmo, the coiled energy bears traces of minimal techno and radical electronica, but it’s beyond either of these. while the album passes quickly, it’s full of detail and the thoughtfulness and craft that have gone into it are evident. dwa offers the chance to appreciate the flow and the sheen of its analogue textures – the modernist romance of the power line hum and its promise of technological-cultural progress. jamka are known for their dynamic live performances and this energy is almost tangible on derazor. the stately igora is a strong, bold close to the album, offering surprises right till the end. the sharp, metallic details ripple through the mix and an anthemic sequence shines through. inter alia makes clear that jamka are worthy inheritors of slovakia’s proud late modernist traditions of radical architecture and electronic music. this is a work of craft that demands respect and repeated listening.

for the fourth edition of slow motion’s soundtrack serie we welcome heinrich dressel, better known as one part of minimal rome. space shaft is three tracks of dreamy, sleazy space-funk delivered with a light touch across expansive musical horizons. backed up with a brace of marcoantonio spaventi versions – both ‘disco’ and ‘chill’ space shaft is a record for movie fans and dancers alike.

one records continue their quest for the most up-to-the-minute house and tech-house tones, this time calling on bobby o donnell to step up to the plate with his groovesome wares. -e211- is a huge track, using swooping pads and a classic diva vocal lick to devastating effect - it s hard to imagine anyone resisting the emotional draw of this melancholic jam. -e131- meanwhile is a more cheeky affair, ramping up the funky drum programming and using a more minimal palette of sounds for decoration. john dimas then steps up to remix -e211- and turns it into a hard-bopping workout powered by a mean-tempered snare.

rhythm&soul s just groove it label has been excelling in its first year of operations, serving as a vehicle for the paris-based producer to air his own productions while drawing good friends into the fold. following on from chris carrier s appearance on the previous 12-, this time around ben rau has been invited to join in, and the resulting two tracks are testament to the strength of the collaboration. -the long tomorrow- is funky as hell, keeping the swing levels high and using a crafty set of minimal sounds to create movement. -we can do it like that- takes a deeper route, using dubby production methods to create an immersive treat for the dancefloor.

that which is not said...
twins is matt weiner who is also known for his featureless ghost project and of course as the head of the dka records label… his project twins is not limited to one specific style but the dominant characteristic is the synth driven sound… other influences in the mix are various styles of dance music and a healthy dose of arty post-punk… this new mini album “rather not” is the perfect blending of all of this… due to this it is on the one hand a classic minimal elektro record but at the same time a rather modern piece of electronic music… catchy tunes and surprising twists go hand in hand and make up for an authentic and original record… which is more stunning every time you play it!

tomoki tamura s holic trax label has been nurturing tuccillo among its many regular artists over the years, and now the italian wonderkid returns with another distinctive run of jams from the wild side of deep house. there s a psychedelic quality to the rich textures that vibrate throughout -g-capsule-, while -pierrot- keeps things lean and limber with some minimal percussion and a cheeky bassline that will work wonders in the mix. -playhead- takes old skool new york house into a modernist mindset, and then -los amigos- finishes off in a more sensual celebration of unconventional house music.

the white man & the arab return with their fifth release, the exchange ep, further developing the sound that s made their previous four outings so alluring.informed by a range of cues that reflect the pairs influences, you can sense dub, ambient, minimal, a love for eerie melodies and raw deepness permeating from this ep’s start to finish. the a side kicks off with -on the floor- - a nod to the fact that the whole ep was crafted literally on the floor (the studio was in transition ) - signals what awaits the listener for the duration of the ep. moody pads, slowly progressing melodies and their signature syncopated drum patterns. -people say- follows next, instantly shifting up a gear - this is a solid dancefloor shaker with a simple but seriously effective bassline that will be lodged in your brain, a sharp hi-hat & clap combo and a disembodied, haunting vocal that chants along to the beat. flip the record over for the title track - -the exchange- - a reverb-drenched ethereal club cut that gets it s unstoppable sense of motion from the irresistible percussion workout, while the squelchy acid line adds that extra rawness. rounding off the ep -sideways- signals a distinct nod to detroit. no homage in sight though - it s been carefully distilled via their own signature processes resulting in a somewhat emotional, dubbed out track - perfect supplement for when you re starting to land back to earth

bit027 is by 2 italians (who do it better as we already know anyways ...) mario masullo & glitches who deliver a pure particle riot on their >pimps ride free< ep. the kids (mario masullo from rome and glitches peepz from naples) without a doubt know what they are doing on this strong as it gets 3 track ep. the message is raw driving techno with an orchestral feel and an overall extra ordinary hypnotizing mood that really breaks away from the norm and will leave the dancer behind thirsty for more. while the a-side is more on the techy driving side of things, combining orchestral sounds for creating a very quite unusual vibe, b1 goes even deeper in hypnotizing your ears and fucking with your brains, real phsychotic dancefloor madness is the key here. b2 then heads back to the melodic side of the game, without forgetting to keep a strong eye on an intense dance-floor aspect here also. melodies so sweet and clean keep flirting with your ears on this one and its just all so well put together, that it manages to keep an minimal feel, eventhough its filled with so many ideas and great sound details, that it simply leaves us behind speechless and answers the question why our new pimps, sure ride for free at the same time ...

long time minimal techno pusher franklin de costa steps up to jersey city label green village to thrown down a ruckus with four serious cuts of advanced house and techno. -derp journal- may be flippant in name, but the bassline it packs is not to be trifled with, nor the edgy drums and lashings of reverb. -bogart space- is a more house-minded affair, but it s still reaching to a contemplative space using unfamiliar sounds. -good day bad day- gets into a cyclical, psychedelic mood thanks to a trippy synth circling overhead, but then the ep gets dealt a tough finishing blow by the cranked up hustle of -flashmelo-, coming on like a crunchy mid 00s minimal jam of the highest order.
