trelik returns with a repackaged edition of one of the catalogues most treasured releases. overcome and lady science (nyc sunrise) need little introduction, and now come sporting the new tr11:11 matrix number. written and produced by thomas melchior and baby ford aka soul capsule. these tracks came from one of the many sessions recorded at the west london ifach studio in 1999. on the a side overcome is stripped back and energetic, driven by rolling and shuffling garage style beats, tight bubbling bass and atmospheric synth pads. the intermittent vocal samples and the release s signature organ set you up for the flip, lady science (nyc sunrise) . possibly one of house music s most emotive pieces, the track builds slowly with the introduction of each part building a story of soulful optimism based around a sparse palette of deep synths, uplifting keys and warm analogue bass. the understated beauty of the main vocal riff never seems to grow old or tired with the track lending itself perfectly to either main room, peak-time play or after-hours sessions alike. remastered by rashad at d & m

MYSTERY FALLS
12 Inch
26.03.20
r e p r e s s - in classic baby ford style the a-side opens with -mystery falls- a deep melodic housey workout with shuffling percussion and sublime top line strings. meanwhile on the b-side, shaker hustlin -spooked- conjures up a more stripped down moody grooving chordal affair. both tracks cut at 45rpm for maximum quality and effect on the floor.
ROLLING DRAMA (2X12 INCH)
2x12 Inch
12.04.19
ion ludwig is a leading light in contemporary minimal house, able to elicit fresh approaches from a well-worn club music template. he lands back on baby ford s trelik label with a chunky double pack of beautifully crafted rollers for the stripped down dance, leading in with the subliminal murmurs of -fall answers- and following it up with the incredibly groovy, bass-led -modern missing mood-. -le imagen- gets into a more wriggling, crafty configuration, while -felt like klariny space- lets trippy daubs of melody take centre stage. -sparse hypnotimes- does what it says on the tin, simmering down to a mellow, dubby haze of blue-hued keys and a slither of a beat.
RUMOURS EP (140 G VINYL)
12 Inch, 140 g
10.04.18
edwards graceful take on modern house and techno is a perfect fit for trelik, and the german producer sounds comfortable as he unfurls swooning threads of otherworldly music for the tripped out dancefloor. the ogermania mx of mikko is a hazy, string soaked affair pitched somewhere warm and dreamlike, but there s plenty of energy churning away in the lower register. lottery is a more twitchy affair for darker times, all moody bass bounce and looming drones around a shuffling set of percussion. groaning ghosts is the techiest of the bunch, and theres a whole lot of freaked out sound design swirling around in the mix as well. this is simply stunning, highly advanced dance music from a modern day maestro.
OPEN SPACE IS THE PLACE EP
12 Inch
12.05.17
doing things properly and building up a diy phenomenon from their base in zurich, the les points crew have brought a fresh, daring originality to the house and techno scene with their gritty outboard approach and a wide range of stylistic tendencies. taking a break from releasing on their own label, audino, barbir, louh and nicola kazimir have been invited to the evergreen trelik to broach their music to a wider audience. from the blissful space techno groove of -anubis- to the tightly wound beats of -housepacer- and on to the cranky acid funk of -ripstyle-, this is yet another distinctive transmission from the plucky swiss crew.
LOVE UNCONDITIONAL EP (140 GR)
12 Inch
02.12.16
london s trelik returns to an artist perfectly in tune with the current stance of the british house and techno institution. och has been grafting in the european underground for more than ten years shaping out a truly formidable back catalogue. he first appeared on trelik with whalesong in 2011, while he s also contributed to baby ford s equally revered pal sl label on more than one occasion. in addition, highly-regarded outposts such as all inn, systematic and bass culture have all given och the stamp of approval, while his own autoreply label has continued to be a vital facet on the frontline of the scene. this latest three-track ep finds och on sublime form, working to a crisp, classic house template with the uncluttered precision one expects from a trelik release. the title track struts proudly out in front with its hooky dx7 lead, while -more journeys- builds up to a tougher, psychotropic blend. -sunday love- provides a perfect soulful tonic to round the ep off, rich with warm keys and irresistible shuffle. mastered at d & m.

46 LJ + FELIX BALLAD
12 Inch
07.10.14
as one of the more distinctive minimal house operators in these times, ion ludwig makes for a snug fit over at trelik towers, and with this three tracker its not hard to see why his records vanish quicker than you can say baby ford. 46 lj + felix ballad is a refined groover with a fine balance between gritty low end chunk and gossamer top-end, working subtle hits of bass and illustrious string sweeps into the mix to great effect. em carpet meanwhile darts out into more obscure territory, keeping the beats to a minimum and focusing on warm and fuzzy synth tones cycling

DEEP DAWN
12 Inch
29.07.11
perfect for fans of ricardo villalobos / perlon !!! just when we thought that thomas melchior and peter frank adshead had hung up their soul capsule boots and settled on sporadic solo work, they come belting back with two releases in a matter of months on peter fords trelik label. >deep dawn<, up first, is typically soul capsule. dark, twisted techno thats made for dark spaces and dark minds. sporting low, reverbed basslines that throb along to breathy and indecipherable vocals, >deep dawn< and <new day dawn< project the same eyes closed, foot stomping attack on their listeners as each other
AS THE REACTION FOLLOWED I KNEW MY FEELINGS WERE RIGHT
12 Inch
24.05.11
dutch export ion ludwigs first offering for londons trelik imprint is a lesson in stripped back, mechanical groove-funk. title track >as the reaction followed i knew my feelings were right< is a rolling groover with nods to the kdj and theo school of deep house, with oven warm harmonies and vintage key sequences and lucid pads pushing the track along for its eight minute duration. flip over for >l sable<, which takes things in a more hypnotic direction with insistent stabs, a funky bubbling bassline and one of those vocals that you will be happily humming for days. forget what people are saying about old-skool and nu-skool deep house, this is simply house music at its very best.
NITE OUT (COLOURED VINYL)
coloured 12 Inch
08.03.11
the somewhat mysterious ld nero debuts with a release on peter fords venerable trelik imprint. the nites out ep is dipped in the kind of glossy production sheen that one expects to hear from a seasoned producer, with opening jam >nite out (dusk dub)< nailing that early 90s, stripped back house sound with effortless aplomb. the deep and hypnotic drum programming undulates next to neat organ stabs forming for a truly rhythmic dancefloor jacker. flip over for the dawn dub of the same track, with both name and sound suggesting this ones aimed squarely at those still standing and/or dancing come sunrise. this time a more ethereal atmosphere permeates, with a refreshing live and un-sequenced feel to the production
