Vinyl Releases
tardis records are delighted to welcome uk tech-house hero flow to the tardis records stable for their eighth release. the three tracks making up the trine ep were recorded together with simon moorecroft (a.k.a. simon vinyl junkie) around the time of his first vinyl releases back in 1996-1997. all three tracks sound completely contemporary whilst having more than enough old school flavour to give flashbacks to any 90s ravers. lead track boy girl action has skipping, garage-influenced beats with rolling bass and swirling atmospherics, whilst a breakbeat, vocals and a stabby intro give trine on the flip a more ravey feel. closing out the ep, i see you is the dubbiest cut here, with another heavy bassline, cut-up vocals,and subtly swung percussion. eli and oscar have loved testing these tracks out on the road and can vouch for their impact on a peak-time dancefloor!

after the success of closer to freedom in 2014, chicago legend dj jes returns to tardis records with the between the lines ep, featuring two lost tracks from his personal archives and a brand new offering. opener æno foolingÆ is reduced to the bare essentials until an elegant snatch of piano and spoken word sample break it down further, when the track kicks back in with a vengeance everyone in the room will know all about it, but it remains subtle enough to work the day after as well. on the flip, æbetween the linesÆ is tougher and dubbier and will do some serious peak-time damage, whilst new track lost is a cut-up banger for the floor and a perfect dj tool. all tracks have been meticulously edited and rearranged by label owners eli verveine and oscar schubaq in order to extend the grooves and maximise dance floor impact.

repress !! for the sixth release on tardis records, label owners eli verveine and oscar schubaq proudly present two tracks from the personal archives of peter kremeier a.k.a. losoul, a man who has been rocking dancefloors and enchanting listeners with his uniquely abstract and tripped-out take on minimal house for two decades and counting. on the a-side, * soda island* hangs cut-up vocal stabs over the last word in bone-dry, bass-heavy grooves. * sparkling please* on the flip starts out cheerfully but then subtly mutates into spooked insectoid psychedelia anchored by crisp percussion and bass. drop either of these cuts at the right moment and watch the dancers lose their minds! mastered and cut by stefan betke at scape mastering.

latest addition to the tardis records family is non other than quintessential swedish techno veteran jesper dahlbäck: the man who has arguably had his fi nest club moments under his the persuader moniker. an ode to the fl oral beauty of his nordic homeland, the three cuts of the vaborblommor ep tread his much beloved, hypnotic path between techno and house. its the subtle quirkiness and authentic grit that makes these productions stand out from the vast uniformity of dubby club tracks. repress without fullcover
