unspecials follow up on the resopal label. the hanau born producer presents the result of months of extended sound research. we are inconceivably happy that he does so on resopal. with his victimized generation ep he handles his complex sound structures with inimitable nonchalant precision aiming on your brain and your feet. this release truly takes it to a higher level. groovy, percussive, tricky, elegant.

vinyl edition of mini-album originally released as cassette on jolly discs.

special request joins forces with nina kraviz and anastasia kristensen, shattering the doors of perception over a four-track ep. through the looking glass drops july 20th on houndstooth. on the a side, nina kraviz provides two interpretations of curtain twitcher. alice was here remix takes the intensity of the original and boils it into a 4/4 spin of frenzied basslines and distorted acoustics, punctuated by her languid reading of the mad hatter. for the samba version, syncopated polyrhythms take charge of a fragmented melody. opening the aa side, looking glass lures you down the rabbit hole with mysterious bleeps, only to reveal a whirlwind of stormy breaks and junglist percussion. closing off the trip, anastasia kristensens remix of tiresias marches its way through a field of swollen bass and glitchy percussion.

théo spécial brings you the ultimate heat for this summer, including a bartellow remix. fire!

special request returns via gerd janson & shans studio, as they completely re-build both brainstorm and make it real across four frenzy-inducing incendiary versions custom made for sending the rave over the edge

das zweite special request-album von paul woolford knüpft mit 23 tracks und einem multiversum an jungle & rave-sounds, die bis in die frühen 1990er zurückreichen, nahtlos an sein vielgelobtes debütwerk suol music aus 2013 an. und dennoch kennzeichnen überwältigende, atmosphärische klangebenen, offen-modulare systeme und die einführung intensiver soundtrack-fragmente eine konsequente und spannende weiterentwicklung des künstlers auf.

german producer unspecial doesn’t fail to surprise club music lovers with his versatile view on techno and house.

special request returns taking no prisoners with a fierce battery of snarling, belligerent, machine-funk of the highest order across a 6 track ep. atoms are smashed, vapour clouds sent into the ether, chaos is controlled, tamed and rendered in 6 different shades of wrong… also features a deliciously spannered rework by peder mannerfelt to close out the ceremony

phat d&b sounds by specialist x, hot jungle action

discographies in dance music don’t come much more impressive than that belonging to paul woolford, the man behind seminal releases for the likes of planet e, xl recordings and running back. special request is the project that sees him continuing to defy expectation with a new ep on the fabric-run label houndstooth. stairfoot lane bunker encapsulates this approach with 5 bold new excursions into the outer limits followed by a remix from minor science (known for his previous releases on whities and the trilogy tapes) the eagle-eyed will notice 5 of these tracks appear on fabriclive 91. this ep is issued as an addendum. redrum is the fierce opener. rampantly-edited electro beats, a sampled speak-n-spell vocal, and a pure sci-fi breakdown sets the scene for the rest. stairfoot lane bunker and replicant are jungle tracks taken to dizzying extremes - the former building from widescreen atmospherics, thunder spells and lightning before descending into a frenzy of breakbeats and long heavy bass notes. replicant ratchets the pressure up further with hyper-edits across it s breakbeat introduction and throughout, punctuated by furnace-rattling subs. telepathic dog and five lane ends are highly evocative ambient pieces, pushing into the uncanny realms of metaphysical music. to end the release minor science comes through with his remix of stairfoot lane bunker, effortlessly blending in his own work with the disjointed sr breakbeats, flashing only snippets of the serrated bars, chopping them up and creating a new track in the process.

2 new tracks from special request. cut and mastered by matt colton at alchemy.

special request gets the banging treatment.

2016 sees the 3rd anniversary of houndstooth, and the label mark this with their 50th release. tessellations is a compilation of brand new, exclusive tracks from each of the 14 artists to release on the label. the release serves to simultaneously trace common threads and highlight tensions within such a stylistically expansive roster. this 12inch sampler collects four dancefloor-leaning cuts onto vinyl for the first time. the atmospheric jungle of special requests live from alpha centauri could be the soundtrack to an intergalactic chase scene, whilst akkords vector grinds gradually towards an explosion of mechanistic breaks, like an ancient machine brought to life. cant stop sees marquis hawkes dusting down the 303 for a playful yet powerful acid banger, before second storeys elephant ride draws syncopated funk from his machines in his inimitable style.

on its sophomore release, raar s bold mission of unbridled techno with a punk-rock ethos is continued in tracks from label co-founder maelstrom and newest family member, specialivery. opium wars sets a seething tone, deftly holding a line of tension as machines moan and shriek. focused yet dissonant, the discomfort continues to build without resolution, playing the edge but never grasping hold . diameter of recess starts under the skin in maelstrom s typified controlled chaos. as it grows, the track becomes both an aching roar and a needle-sharp, frenzied insistence, a feral yearning and a frustrated surrender. swiss italian carlo bernasconi is a man of many aliases, the most ferocious of which is specialivery. having eagerly taken up the challenge to push further than the original demos sent, dust detector subsystem is a demonstration of this, cumulating in -an extremely rare, compulsive mental movement- presented in both teeth-bared, club-optimized and more pensive beatless versions. it is with great pride and pleasure that we present the evolution of raar. it is our greatest hope that this work inspires and liberates its listeners. released on 12inch via the vinyl factory

hailing from the rank depths of sf bay area back-alleys and only the grittiest of rundown nightclubs and dive bars, a taste of dj milanesa especials sleazy magic is finally here for the world to behold. fellow yay area freak and veteran fan of all things slightly askew for the dance floor, dave aju, managed to get dj milanesa onboard in the studio for this nasty ass jam of the highest/lowest order. chili dog surely finds its inspiration in the classic dance mania cannon of raw shit-talking party-rocking house trax, but ajus unique knob twists and turns here and there on co-production steers it clear into 2015 - the first wildly oversexed dance move anthem of the year is here, and hopefully only the first of many: if youre hungry double up, everybodys

midnight special rides again with our second release, the *glitter juice ep*, comprising 3 tracks of raw & real house for the more discerning dj.

paul woolford fusioniert mit seinem projekt special request uk-house mit piratensender-bassmusik und erschafft infiziöse rave-tunes, die sowohl in einem 120bpm techno-, wie auch in einem 170bpm drum & bass-set funktionieren. neuer 4-tracker auf dem fabric-label houndstooth. mit remixes des gefeierten new yorker house-produzenten anthony naples (mister saturday night) und lee gamble, der im vergangenen jahr mit releases auf pan für furore sorgte.

*foundation* is the new ep from especially good, the most exciting band from detroit in recent memory. the eight track ep showcases the trios dynamic energy of julio dominguezs vocals, joe flis synthesizers and drum programing and paul kirys bass - culminating in songs that are equally raw, brutal and honest. the sound of e.g. exists in a space of its own, but one can hear influences of throbbing gristle, factory records and detroit techno in the rhythms and sonic textures throughout *foundation*. recorded and mixed in detroit by sam consiglio and adam lee miller (of adult). released on est. 83 records

turquoise blue has come a long way since its launch, welcoming the likes of djebali, manik, laura jones, boris horel and alex arnout onto its roster. here the label welcomes back special case following their remix of scarlett ninas the end on the imprints preceding record.
title track niribu opens the release here, a low-slung, tripped-out house number employing insistent drum programming and dark, atmospheric synthesizers as its driving force. the trio continue down their path of tasteful, intelligently crafted productions, instilling subtle production nuances through filters, delays and reverbs in to the cut while a tight blend of gritty electronic and warm organic sounds creates a heady peak-time cut.

vinyl only... special request returns with the third vital 12 inch in this series based on capturing the spontaneous rugged energy of uk pirate radio and re-wiring this into chaotic dancefloor moments. maintaining all the illicit qualities of the best hardcore/jungle blueprints but reloading them with a contemporary approach, there is an attention to detail and touch here that makes these recordings far from revisionist. on the third stamped release, special request tackles the voice of one of this years most talked about artists, laying down a deadly amen break and killer hoover bassline for a sub 130 bpm dnb track that is simply explosive. on the flip is the even tougher vip mix that doubles up as a dub. limited hand-stamped, vinyl only release

second in a series of releases based on capturing the energy and culture of uk pirate radio but going way beyond that as the project unwinds. limited press. the eagle-eyed amongst you may have spotted which celebrated producer is behind this excellent, killer two-tracker - he has had releases out on planet e, hot flush and phonica too!

the rapidly evolving scene thats happening out in russia allows for the kind of collaboration between artists of highly different fields, as is the case here. arram mantana, tripmastaz and roustam are three producers of different ilk, who have joined in this special case for their debut ep out on souvenir records

east meets west on culprits seventeenth ep release, as three emerging producers from russia make their debut on the los angeles based label as special case. as culprit enters the next phase in its lifecycle, young producers are submitting music that is inspired by the culprit catalogue. championing fresh acts, as evidenced on the above the city compilation, is becoming a key aspect of the culprit ethos.
heralding from st petersburg and moscow, special case is part of a rising wave of eastern european artists, a region that holds tremendous importance for culprit s ukrainian born andrei osyka. having established reputations as individual djs in their native soil, the trio came together as special case specifically to create a release for culprit, and with the belief that the whole would be greater than the sum of their parts. aurum is dancefloor gold and proves they were right to do so.
