the late composer, arranger, musician and record producer nonato buzar is a lesser known great (outside of brazil). his legacy leaves behind a rich body of recordings, working with some of the cream of the brazilian 60s and 70s music scene, such as evinha, elis regina, wilson das neves to name a few as well as reggae legend jimmy cliff. the awesome organ driven dancer of ‘cafua&#769,,’ is taken from nonato & seu conjunto’s o som e o balanc&#807,,o de nonato’ album from 1975 on som records. mr bongo re-issued jose&#769,, roberto’s (aka ze roberto) ultra rare lotus 72 d 7” earlier in 2019. crioula multicolorida’ though not as scarce as ‘lotus is still a hard record to find and is equally as great. this anthemic ‘samba rock’ gem, with its amazing breakdown, originally appeared as the b-side of a 7” in 1974 on rca victor. it has since been a favourite amongst brazilian djs and collectors, featuring on the influential ‘via brazil’ compilation series and brazilian beats brooklyn collection on mr bongo.

just beautiful

mr bongo’s brazil 45 journey continues.

soul clap definitely knew what they were doing when they snapped up certifiable diva legend nona hendryx to sing on one of the cuts from their self-titled 2016 album. now ray mang has got his mitts on the parts to -shine (this is it)- and turned out three versions for his own mangled label - the classic combination of extended vocal, instrumental and radio edit versions. whichever cut suits you best, the vibe is the same, a bold and bright summer party track splashed with horns, keys and plenty more besides, although the smart money is on hendryx s legendary vocal, which soars as though no time has passed since her days working with material in 80s nyc.

soul clap kamen zum ersten mal mit nona hendryx durch ihre arbeit mit george clinton, sa’d the hourchild ali und chuck da fonk fishman zusammen. nona schrieb und sang die single “shine” von ihrem letzten album. diese erfahrung ließ alle mehr zusammenarbeiten, also haben soul clap mit morgan wiley von midnight magic zusammengetan und sind allesamt ins studio gegangen, um eine neues album für soul clap records zu produzieren, vier tracks von house, soul, jazz und natürlich the funk.

release #64 in mr bongo’s brazil 45 series.

chances are if you have a body, a pair of ears and access to some kind of listening device, you’ve at least tapped a foot to ‘shine’ from soul clap and nona hendryx. pure authenticity and vocal integrity is provided in bucket loads by nona (ex-labelle member and purveyor of funk for more than 40 years), while the production maintains soul clap’s sublime freshness. increasing your marimba intake by 200% with two additional versions, hot toddy gives exotic plushness with a diversified rhythm section and melodic bottom lines that lightly entwine, shimmering in the light of nonas voice. scott grooves brings the funk, with an upfront bassline and extra jb-style horns on his horns dub, while the deepah dub takes a housier approach while still keeping the horn stabs. scott finishes off with an echopella of nonas vocals recorded from the international space station. this remix package is everything you would want, and then some.

popnonames change is the perfect pop song to sing along to and soundtrack a change in you.

following a string of contributions for kompakts pop ambient series jens-uwe beyer aka popnoname joins the kompakt pop stable with a truly remarkable tune that is destined to bring him to a broader audience - hello gorgeous finds itself somewhere between the classic sound of kompakt and the pet shop boys. hello gorgeous sounds likes it was produced in lavish place where rave and indie meet on the dance floor. and all throughout, the song is harmoniously carried together by beyers powerful vocals. popnoname provides a upbeat le klub remix tightening the techno up a notch or 5. the big news is that terranova step in for remix duties - legends in their own right fetisch and me have been an institution in the music scene since the 80s so we are excited to have their exceptional contribution - they turn hello gorgeous into a cracking jack house number.

brut! records baby sister label, pop!, sees its second release with popnonames spaces. an eclectic line-up, including joerg burger, freund der familie and paid for fame, remix the original three times over to offer a varied perspective of the same brave track. revving its engine, spaces drives you to experience things. it invites you to crack yourself open so that through that voluntary rift some new future might pour. bold, beautiful and formless it emerges, washed in a golden light. a baby nebula, perhaps if you are lucky, cradled in the spiral arms of a distant galaxy patiently building mass as it clumps gas and dust together. the important things often creep up silently…recognized only once they are there, even though you had given them no shape in your mind prior to their arrival. space gives possibility to what these forms might be, boundless in four-dimensions. its that expanding medium that allows imagination to roam without end…where the need to distinguish between what you know and invented evaporates and flows pure and clear as an ice cold stream.

phat prime time minimal techno ep

2. teil der popnoname album 12inch vinyl serie auf italic und repräsentiert die club seite von surrounded by weather mit den instrumentalen und tanzbaren stücken perspective und crack und einem neuen mix von the movement. die a-seite perspective ist das herausragende krautige disco stück des albums und bezieht seine energie aus improvisation und tiefe und klingt wie ein morgenspaziergang durch den nassen deutschen wald. das radikale crack ist das strengste stück des albums mit seiner monotonen stroboskophaftigkeit und der harten ekstatischen tanzbarkeit. doch auch hier deutet sich duch die flächen ein hauch von zartheit an. den abschluss der ep bildet the movement im neuen >revolution mix<. der mix beginnt flächig mit vereinzelten gitarren bass sequenzen, der federnde beat unterstützt dabei die dramaturgie des stückes und der gesang verdeutlicht noch einmal den pop- appeal von popnoname. der ideale soundtrack, um das 70er kraut gefühl mit dem 90er techno gefühl zu verbinden und heute neu erstrahlen zu lassen

the field, tennishero & picious mit einladenden remixen die in erster linie für den dancefloor gemacht sind, darüber hinaus aber den indie sektor bereichern. unkonventionell & stark

popnoname gilt als einer der grossen exzentriker der kölner elektronik. sein neues album mäandert gekonnt zwischen den polen house-not-house, funktionalem techno und klassischem singer/songwriter material. scheinbar mühelos fügt er all dies zusammen zu einer unterhaltsamen reise durch die stile und epochen

nice price deal !!! part two with remixes by kris menace / dead soul brothers mixes

massive twisted electrohouse mix with great drums by dead soul brothers. flip for 2 ambient pieces

acht herrliche perlen die einen nicht unberührt lassen & trotzdem sehr prima funktionieren im gnadenlosen zirkus des clubs- und dancefloor-diktats

groove sagt: popnoname hat ein faible für das grosse drama - und das ist ihm mit >no doubt< auch gelungen. was als techno-ballade beginnt, löst sich zu einer der euphorischsten rave-hymnen der letzten zeit auf, die markant stotternde hookline dürfte man so schnell nicht vergessen. hit

this lovely gent from cologne returns to italic. with credits, popnoname takes the classic approach to cologne techno, embracing the aspects of pop and techno wholeheartedly with romance and addicted to night

popnoname klingt immer irgendwie bekannt aber doch anders. 6 musikalische besonderheiten in allen facetten. von gerade über verstrahlt über poppig bis zum songwriter track. kein wunder, dass holden popnoname mag

>you are popnoname< ist techno mit geschmack, rave mit gutem benehmen und gar nicht weit von der border community baustelle entfernt

firm sorgt weiterhin für eine frische brise. popnoname bringt es eskapadisch angerockt & melodisch auf den punkt!

zweites album des koelners, der hiermit seine soundstrukturen noch einmal verfeinert und auf besondere weise traditionelle instrumente und gesang mit referenzen zu pop und krautrock auf technobasis verbindet.

the electronic music producer returns to his songwriting roots with a kaleidoscopic new album, featuring collaborations across genres and generations

‘lillygood party!’ is the brand new bbe compilation from highly respected swiss dj alex attias. taking its name from a party he runs in his native lausanne, lillygood has gradually evolved into a radio show and even a label, now on its 4th release. refecting the music he plays at the clubnight, ‘lillygood party!’ is packed with funk, disco, deep house and boogie bullets from across the globe. “the idea is to present not only rare or difcult tracks to fnd, simply good grooves for people to play out, or listen to at home.”
from rare japanese disco gems, through spiritual jazz, to genre defying sounds from broken-beat cohorts kaidi tatham and dego, ‘lillygood party!’ takes a unique trip inside the musical mind of one of dance music’s true nonconformists.
alex attias got his start in back in ’88 playing funk, house, jazz, and disco, as well as producing under various monikers such as mustang, freedom soundz or beatless. moving to london in ’97 he started his ‘visions’ label and found himself at the epicentre of the emerging west london ‘broken beat’ scene which grew around his studio at goya. releases on people, planet e, ubiquity, neroli, archive and compost followed, as well as remixes for incognito, 4hero, ennio morricone, sun ra, art blakey, roni size and laurent garnier among others.
