repress of the seminal animal magic, bonobos debut long player, back on limited yellow 180 gram double vinyl by popular demand.

16 classic tracks that include guest appearances by david byrne, perry farrell and the flaming lips. a kaleidoscopic swirl of psychedelia, dub, indian, rock, brazilian, easy-listening and other worldly influences.

les adventures de president bongo is a unique work that will reveal itself over the next seven years, give or take, in the form of 24 lp s. what is a groove? it is something that goes on and on, not changing much seemingly, like the growth rings exposed when you cut and fell a tree. it is no coincidence that tree rings resemble the spiral track of a record: they re both grooves of a sort.

a groove is a routine, a life lived. it may not always seem like much – a cup of bitter coffee, another day spent under the flickering fluorescent lights of an office, an overly long queue at the check-out of a suffocating supermarket. but it is also the scent of slightly burnt meat and birch by a gently flowing stream under a pink sunset, a silver fog clearing without notice to expose a starry sky and its familiar twinkling constellations, an impenetrable smile on a crowded morning train. it is the pattern exposed on the tree stump. a proper groove has ups and downs, it has drama. a good groove is a good story, a transmission into the future.

das in der karibischen atmosphäre aufgenommene -the temple of i&i- atmet den spirit und den rhythmus jamaikas und klingt wie eine fortsetzung des legendären thievery corporation debütalbums -sounds from the thievery hi-fi- (1996). das duo siedelte für die aufnahmen mit seiner gesamten live-rhythm-section aus washington, dc in die geejam studios in port antonio im herzen jamaikas. dort entstanden mit viel ganja und rum und diversen vokalisten, darunter dem bekannten mr. lif sowie der exzellenten newcomerin aus kingston und ex-miss jamaica, racquel jones, 15 fabelhafte tracks zwischen dub, downbeat, reggae, hiphop und electronica, und damit ein inspirierender nachfolger ihres letzten brazil-albums -saudade- (2014).

2016 re:issue , a groundbreaking classic album , must have !!!!!!

classic trip hop album !!! re-issue

es ist erst ein jahr her, dass skläsh die runde machte: das debut-album des münchener klangsurfers wurde in trendmagazinen all over the place als elektrisierende glücksspirale gefeiert, als entdeckung einer unbekannten umlaufgeschwindigkeit, einer neuen wahrnehmungsebene von zeit. skläsh war (und ist) eine global denkende musik- und zeitmaschine, angetrieben von einer erfrischend renitenten slackerigkeit.
der globus aber hat seitdem einige kratzer dazubekommen, scheint binnen diesem einen jahr um ein vielfaches gealtert zu sein. während leroy zu winterspielen in wien oder sommerfestivals im u.k. eingeladen wurde, gab es ein amokmünchen, ein putschstambul, einen brexit und einen freitag, den 13ten ba-ta-clan, kam unter viel dampf und druck eine auf rechts gerührte stimmungssuppe von zweifellos giftiger konsistenz zum brodeln. bambadea! so ist das neue album in einem spannungsfeld zwischen persönlicher euphorie und europäischem weltschmerz groß geworden.

crunch 22 takes a major shift from their debut album, expanding their musical breadth into a full length concept lp, based on lewis carroll’s masterpiece of psychedelic literature – “alice’s adventures in wonderland”. keeping raw groove as the core of their music, the band’s musical language now grasps some further out melodies, abstract harmonies as well as thick layers of swirling samples, influenced by musique concrète no less than it is by modern cut-n-paste turntablism.
the album is released by tel-aviv-based boutique label audio montage on an exclusive 180g limited edition vinyl, in a beautiful gatefold sleeve illustrated by street artist jack t.m.l (shahaf ram).

one-take ambient instrumental travels, composed in strict committee by the trio of kevin blagg, william suran, and dante carfagna. recorded spontaneously in rural arkansas, bulging sub-woofers lope through fissures of skeletal banjo and pitched down pedal steel, while delicately arranged basins of synth and guitar reverberate, providing a steady stream of granular epiphanies. utterly faded, yet still possessing crystalline clarity, these twelve songs continually attain summits rarely reached within the span of four-minute transmissions.

an unswervingly honest, highly personal album, darker than blue instills blue daisys personal experiences into a cinematic meditation on the clash between the forces of dark and light, yin and yang, good and evil. wrestling with inner and outer demons, blue daisy leads us on an intense downward spiral of a journey fueled by uncomfortable truths, sleepless nights, love, loss, religion, faith and doubt. unconfined to one specific genre, the record traverses brooding rock, intense rap, elements of the blues, and is imbued with a punk attitude and aesthetic throughout.
the vinyl lp includes a download code.

2015 repress - from the first glimpses of henry laufers work as shlohmo, it was clear that the la native and visual artist turned self-taught musician was onto something. with an effortless grasp on sound design, laufer combines deceptively simple and emotive melodies, subtle bass drops and swinging slow motion drums. his early work has placed him at the forefront of a new wave of rising talent amongst west coast producers… inspired by the desire to write songs and create a release of full-range instrumentation and vocals all his own, laufer promptly began home-recording >bad vibes<, his proper full-length debut album for the friends of friends label. some might say the songs on >bad vibes< represent the spawn of a new rhythm and blues - one that swings and sways under the backbone of henrys own take on modern electronic music. augmented with delicate slide guitar playing, homemade synth sounds and lilting, tuneful melodies, shlohmos latest output is one that will take you places - specifically the un-paralleled vibes swirling through this young mans head.

zum 25-jaehrigen nightmares on wax jubilaeum veroeffentlicht warp alle lps noch einmal neu als edles doppelvinyl im gatefold mit bedruckten innentaschen und neuem sticker. das debütalbum a word of science aus 1991 ist ein klassiker des rave-sounds mit den dancefloorhymnen aftermath, a case of funk, biofeedback und dextrous. die im original als einfachformat erschienene lp wurde jetzt als doppelvinyl geschnitten und enthält zusätzlich die drei cd-only-bonus tracks b.w.t.m., sal batardes und e.a.s.e., die hiermit zum ersten mal auf vinyl erscheinen.

im gatefold . das meisterwerk smokers delight aus dem jahr 1995 mit seiner innovativen fusion aus jazz, dub, soul und hip hop definierte als post-club-comedown-trip das genre des instrumental-hip hop/downbeat/trip-hop.

zum 25-jaehrigen nightmares on wax jubilaeum veroeffentlicht warp alle lps noch einmal neu als edles doppelvinyl im gatefold mit bedruckten innentaschen und neuem sticker. vier jahre nach smokers delight führt george evelyn mit carboot soul 1999 das instrumental hip hop/downbeat-genre zur perfektion, unter anderem mit einem der prägensten ibiza-sonnenuntergangs-klassiker aller zeiten, les nuits.

lambs musical style is a distinctive mixture of jazz, dub, breaks and drum & bass, with a strong vocal element and, in their later works especially, some acoustic influences. consisting of producer andy barlow, and singer-songwriter lou rhodes, they achieved commercial success with two hit singles *górecki* and *gabriel*, the first one being included on their eponymous debut album (1996).
the music on vinyl reissue features an insert with exclusive liner notes written by lou rhodes, giving a unique inside perspective on the production of the album. apart from the *cotton wool* fila brazilia mix, we have included 2 exclusive bonus tracks that have not been issued on vinyl before. a remix of *trans fatty acid* by acclaimed producing duo kruder & dorfmeister, and the *górecki* global communication mix are featured on the d-side.

vicissitude - zu deutsch wandel, wechselhaftigkeit, unbeständigkeit - ist der titel des neuen, dritten albums von maps alias james chapman, das anfang juli auf mute erscheint. schwang im zweitling *tuning the mind* noch der hedonismus des mercury price nominierten erfolgsdebüts *we can create* nach, vermittelt das wunderschöne indie-rock/pop-album *vicissitude* nun die unmittelbare konfrontation chapmans mit der realität: *writing and recording coincided with quite a lot of things in my life changing. although things are good for me now, every song on the record comes from a long period of me having to take stock, to start again almost. i took myself out of everything and had a hard look at what i wanted to do and where i wanted to take maps.* den letzten feinschliff der platte übernahmen produzent und sound engineer ken thomas (sugarcubes, m83, sigur ros), der zuletzt auch an *we can create* mitarbeitete, und sein sohn joylon, der schon als programmierer und produzent für bands wie s.c.u.m. und telepathe aktiv war.

following on from her much-lauded debut album >quarantine< on hyperdub released earlier in the year, laurel halo concludes both the year and the drama explored in >quarantine< with this new single >sunlight on the faded<. where >quarantine< was dense and beatless, layered and visceral with vocals cutting through intense soundscapes, >sunlight on the faded< is energized and geometric, with lush chords built around hard, sparse drums and laurels harmonized vocals.

striking out in june 2011 with his debut ep >in your gut like a knife< - a neat summary of his electronic excursions at that point - the beautifully artworked 12 inch acted as a portal into a world of daydreams, tumbling into shadows and embracing luminescence simultaneously. breeding surreal headphone-friendly landscapes, he struck a peculiar and delicate balance between otherworldly and familiarity, at times sneaking a sly glance towards the dancefloor but mostly conjuring a sense of longing and rye melancholy. ticking with a distinctive bounce and rhythm, it comes as no surprise that gang colours was raised on the bump and grind of uk garage. taking a step back from chopped n screwed rnb vocals and the swing of ukg, >the keychain collection< explores more sombre recesses within gang colours palette. the scattered technicolor synth melodies that characterised his ep are present, but softer, cosier even, weaving betwixt and between forthright piano chords and wills own vocals. >the keychain collection< eloquently captures gang colours first steps on a long road.

black sands came out in 2010 to almost universal critical acclaim and worldwide commercial success. si green aka bonobo moved from being an underground producer of impeccable credentials to a poster boy for a new take on electronic music – contemporary and edgy but also soulful, song-based, sometimes lush but always emotional. black sands remixed gathers together a group of like-minded musicians and producers to interpret this classic album.
triple 12 inch vinyl release, including code for free download of this album.

debut ep des jungen produzenten gang colours, bekannt durch gilles petersons brownswood-samplerreihe, mit 4 tracks wundervoller folky downbeat-electronica im stile von boards of canada.

nach unzähligen singles, eps und remixen auf renommierten labels wie ninja tune, warp, stones throw, brainfeeder oder magical properties meldet sich alfred darlington aka daedelus mit seiner ersten single aus dem in kürze erscheinenden brandneuen album >bespoke< zurück. remixe kommen von floating points und tokimonsta. an den vocals ist milosh mit von der partie!

lol is a bit of an unusual project, its just a thing in its own right, its not for anything or anyone in particular, its just an lp made by three bored people who like music that sounds like it did before the advent of the internet. the project was recorded in the bedroom of a warehouse conversion in hackney wick (bedrooms can be incredibly creative spaces, seeing as most of us were conceived in one). they wrote about self-obsession, social anxiety, drug abuse, and failed relationships using pre-21st century recording devices such as vhs tape, 70s valve microphones, analogue synths, cheap argos catalogue guitars, and 80s drum machines.

melancholic anecdotes and love songs over relaxed hiphop-beats, strings, keys and guitar. an album to dream the day away.

classic trip hop album, must have !!!
