based on the eponymous play by brothers and author/performer team tobi and mike mŸller at schauspielhaus zŸrich, swiss experimental documentary film a1 traverses through time and space along switzerlandÕs first and most elongated highway structure. rich in archival sources, it sheds light on the costs and benefits of rapid movement: social, migratory and ecological patterns, economic and military designs that are mostly not immediately obvious to the casual motorist. stefan goldmannÕs soundtrack engages the filmÕs multi-layered aesthetics full on, providing a dazzling array of short compositions. profoundly synthetic in production, this free-wheeling phantasmagoria of peculiar, yet intensely likeable miniatures branches off into all directions Ð from minimalistic to overflowing, calm to banging, nightmarish to soothing. the visual patina of historic documents is playfully mirrored in intense distortion and noise artifacts, bound into rhythmic units and melodies formed of ghost notes. finding ever new ways of mining his techno background to yield surprising new forms and ideas, stefan goldmann has proven his abilities in a dazzling range of projects over the past years. works for dance, ensembles, an opera and various object-based creations made him a natural choice for the job of finding a refreshing way of linking sound and image. on its own, the music holds up by putting the listener on a high-velocity road trip of the curious mind.
with the release of fourth album crown posada, smoove & turrell cement their position as one of the uks most exceptional soul acts with their innate ability to deliver hard times social commentary in a dancefloor friendly medium. proudly working class as a band this album celebrates love, life, politics and the lows and the highs of growing up and raising families in the north east of england. gritty and powerful, the band make no attempt to sound or look like anyone else not for them the sharp suits and trumpet twirls of some of their peers. instead you get a wildly talented and vital crew of larger than life geordie lads taking their rightful place on the international soul scene having already become figureheads within the uk.

praise poems vol.1: gilles peterson (worldwide / brownswood rec.): one of my fave comps of 2015. praise poems vol.2: oliver korthals (mojo / out of spectrum on byte fm): extremely well put together track listing of artists which i have never heard before. left me with my mouth open... - highly recommend! praise poems vol.3: dom servini (wah wah 45s): this is incredible. praise poems vol.4:
a collaboration between aphex twin (richard d. james) and µÐziq (mike paradinas), mike & rich - Õexpert knob twiddlersÕ was made back in 1994. richard edited the tracks into shape later in 1996 with his new apple mac computer and it was released later that year on rephlex, the label he co-owned and which released the first two albums by µ-ziq. this new reissued version has been carefully cleaned up, re-edited and remastered from the original dat tapes, put into a more fitting order and, more excitingly, seven new bonus tracks and alternative versions have also been added. the album was recorded over a few days during the 1994 world cup, back when richard lived in a big shared flat in stoke newington. richard had tried to collaborate with a few other likeminded artists but something clicked when mike and rich worked together and the sessions have a unique feel, playful and at times actually drunk. these are fun experiments in the spirit of lighthearted moog pop and ripe 70s british tv themes, standing out from the po-faced electronica of the time with a garish glee. the record was made on what is now seen as pretty primitive gear - an atari, roland mks-80, memorymoog, roland r8 and a handful of samples on a casio fz-10m - but itÕs to their credit that it resonates well with the hardware workouts coming out today. there s a broadminded but sloppy funk to the record, even whistling, singing and harpsichord in reg and wonky beat pile-ons in jelly fish . there s latin piano and wheezy drunken techno in ÔvodkaÕ, or the sleepy spaced out ambience of Ôbu bu bu ba with its barely contained laughter which seems to reflect the absurdity. the new versions and bonus tracks are an absolute delight - from a trancier version of Ôvodka to the wonky bounce of Ôportamento gosh , the 3/4 dub of waltz, the banging door bass of brivert and muonds , the creepy seasick atmosphere of clissold bathroom and finishing with the strangely graceful and serious organ plodder . a generous and welcome return to the racks

schneeweiss vi: a collaboration of neighbours. over the years, oliver koletzki has continuously cited berlin as a point of reference and, more importantly, a source of inspiration. two of his albums gro§stadtmŠrchen and gro§stadtmŠrchen 2 have been a direct ode to the capital. friedrichshain, one of berlins vibrant districts, has always held a special place in olivers heat. this is where he started out when he first moved to the city, and this is where he lives now.
SONGS FROM OUR LATIN SOUL - THE BEST OF GRUPO X (CD)
CD 26.07.16
celebrating grupo x s acclaimed output from the last 15 years, the album brings together a mix of hip-swaying, foot stomping, sun-kissed latin and soul, with soaring vocals, driving percussion, heavy horns, tight arrangements and virtuoso performances all round. remastered dance floor fillers, such as brand new love, x-perience and reach, combine with chilled, head-nodding grooves, including jonny s bugalu, get through to you and won t you stay. also included are two brand new tracks featuring lisa millett - the latin r&b stomper share it out plus the soulful, salsa-tinged waiting. additional lead vocals are provided by the outstanding talents of jazz singer julie dexter and venezuelan salsa star carlos pe–a. released just in time for the summer months, this is destined to be the soundtrack to a thousand bbqs and garden parties.

the third time is the charme...thatÕs right. thus, the joy about the third album by marek hemmann is huge. likewise, the third album is perceived as an important brand which ought to show the actual extent of a musicianÕs potential. either hold oneÕs ground or dare something new? marek hemmann is not deterred by such expectations. he was merely in the mood for new tracks. the eight newcomers on ÒmomentsÓ sound accordingly - easygoing, detached and characterised by the same profoundly and harmonically balanced musicality for which marek hemmann is world-renowned. anyhow, a Òjust continue as beforeÓ mentality is not an option for the berliner by choice - from the beginning, his music effort- lessly blurred the established genre lines. in this vein, his new work is influenced by a great candour. as already accomplished with his highly esteemed albums Òin betweenÓand ÒbittersweetÓ, in ÒmomentsÓ marek hem- man takes the listeners - and certainly the dancers - on a journey through different spheres of contemporary electronic music.
after the hip hop after all tour, guts confirms in an idea more than this in the back of his head to make an album where the proportions 80% samples and programming / live 20% would be reversed. ok! an album to push further his musical exploration, go to the electro-funk, afro-disco, space jazz. add choir here, the talkbox there, play a monstrous bassline, a fiery sax solo instruments or let slip only several minutes: guts did nothing forbidden, opened the doors of the studio, broke the unlocked windows and vents so that no breath or vibration is left out.
following contributions by dj deep and dj hell, tresor records are proud to present the third instalment in their kern mix-series, this time headed by berlin based producer objekt, his first release following his 2014 debut album flatland for pan. in keeping with the series mission of showcasing a more personal approach to mixing hertz describes his process as such, kern vol. 3 is made up of tracks that i know i will play and love for years to come. some of these records have been in my bag for years others are almost as new to me as they are to you. a handful are by lesser known artists whom i admire and who i think deserve wider recognition. planned, recorded, embellished, reworked, tweaked and chiselled away at over a period of 6 months, the mix was gradually carved out in a way that makes use of new and old techniques alike, presenting itself primarily as a dj mix but settling in a sweet spot between live recording and studio trickery. the tracklist spans styles, decades and bpms in an attempt to craft a mix thats unpredictable and compelling in equal measure Ð one that draws from the more adventurous corners of my club sets, but above all, one thats a pleasure to listen to.
sound and rhythm are effective means of individuals self-defence in face of chaotic steamroller of everyday life. hiding in a familiar yet simultaneously hardly recognisable parallel space does not have to result from the need of escaping the world or nurturing one’s ego. too many times to mention, music appearing under recognition imprint served as a peculiar type of a vehicle of survival and a tool for internal transformation. hideland, new record by polish electronic music producer jacek sienkiewicz is released precisely year after drifting, which largely explored tropes of classical club techno sound. eight (nine in extended cd version) tracks comprising this album go beyond easy-to-pigeonhole genres, creating a microcosm of utopian sound constructs. surprisingly unobvious and precisely composed release could be fascinating both for loyal fans and for new listeners looking for threads of experimentalism. its another intriguing proposal in jacek sienkiewiczs growing discography, but above all, a laboratory where dreams and artistic visions metamorphose into concrete reality.
macro has been the home for the albums of some of electronic musics most exciting live acts, such as kink and elektro guzzi. so when a live band enters this context, it should better enter with a bang. kuf do just this with their album debut.

the cd included in the lp version features the 12 tracks of the album in the same order. since the release of the album catapulte in 2013, media have been used to describing chevalrex music as miniature symphonies. for this album, rŽmy poncet, the handyman that plays himself all the instruments, writes his own lyrics and even makes his own cover, has decided to keep the same path but meanwhile, has grown in melodic power and maturity. i finally let my teen life behind, and from now on, offer me some peaks he sings in Òaussi loin. with this new release, there is reason to wager that chevalrex will be one of the future pearls that will be used as a reference for those who will venture out on the roads of french pop.

songs without words, suggestive and emotional transparency and connection, contemplation and departure, meditation and attack: this music fascinates from the very beginning. it has no need to boast or become talkative, but stays true to itself as it casually develops its poignant pulse and lets it grow, and grow. the web of sounds soon begins to radiate from within, it inspires images in oneÕs head, and invites to musing and introspection. against the background of a wide horizon the details of their music join, develop a life of their own, and lift off to collective flights of ideas. this music is an invitation to listen without prejudice, offering a way to get lost in dreams while, at the same time, remaining solidly grounded and completely awake

those of a certain vintage may have a soft spot for global underground s after hours series, which promised to soundtrack -the party after the club- by joining the dots between woozy progressive house, deep techno, electronica and, of course, ambient. some eight years after the last installment, the long-running club brand has decided to re-launch the series. apparently, this latest installment took a year to put together, and featured tweaked, edited and gently reworked tunes layered up for a more enjoyable listening experience. musically, it sticks to similar territory to previous installments, updating the sound a little via tracks and remixes from ewan pearson, lawrence, scuba, matrixxman, michael mayer and joris voorn.

two years on from his previous full-length, irishman-in-stuttgart marcus lambkin returns with what follows, his third album. recorded in his home studio, but mixed with juan maclean in new hampshire, it s a typically stylish and trippy set that methodically joins the dots between giorgio moroder, lcd soundsystem, italo-disco, german techno, balearic deep house, and intense chicagoan acid. lambkin has always been adept at making club music both left-of-centre and accessible, as if he secretly pines to make 80s synth-pop but is consistently drawn towards the dancefloor. this certainly explains the quantity and quality of the vocal numbers dotted throughout what follows.
cocoon recordings is proud to present the latest instalment in their dots & pearls compilation series. for the first time, this third edition-which is a retrospective of sorts for the label- will come in mixed cd format and will feature some brand new and unreleased tracks that will also come as a 12″,,, vinyl release. the artist mixing it up this time is daniel stefanik who also includes four of his own edits.
london born d. lean lives in the windswept swedish countryside on the outskirts of stockholm. his surroundings have a notable influence on the sound of the autoreply music boss. expansive and absorbing techno with a nod to the classic sounds and techniques of the genre. after two excellent 10inch singles and a remix of ken ishii and romboy s single taiyo, lean released an appetiser ahead of this double cd album of the same name, time tourism. this long player is a classy, deep and delicate dark electronica album in the tradition of detroit techno, which gets taken on a trippy, tracky and repetitive journey.
