kink - live improvised outro as we reach the 19th year of cocoons residence on ibiza, the location may have changed from amnesia to pacha, but the enthusiasm for perhaps the most enduring party on the mediterranean island is guaranteed to continue. actually, only the sun, sea and wind are more reliable! the celebrated live sets of bulgarias life wire strahil velchev aka kink have been a vital ingredient for the ecstatic nights over the years. with unprecedented regularity, the man from sofia has been voted best live act by readers of groove magazine for the last three years, and in 2017 he was also crowned best electronic music producer. as kink, together with sven vŠth, celebrate one of the most popular evenings of this years season as well, what could be more logical than to repurpose the famed cocoon ibiza mix cd series into another live document of the event? no sooner said than done, and so here the bulgarian offers a 70-minute cross-section of his skills. well-known tracks, especially from last years playground lp (running back) meet exclusive, unreleased material in a spontaneous tour de force through the history of electronic dance music. there are distinctive nods to chicago and detroit, jazzy organs spiralling into string-drenched skies

after more than three years of silence as a producer, efdemin a.k.a phillip sollmann returns with a striking hybrid concept that merges the album format with the -continuous dj mix- format, presenting completely new material in a seamless manner. this cd-mix, named na•f, officially reinstates his label of the same name and is a sprawling tour of inner space featuring 19 distinct tracks from fellow producers (e.g. margaret dygas, steve bicknell, jeroen search, pom pom, marco shuttle or gunnar haslam) along with an additional ten that feature efdemin himself (either as soloist or collaborator). the release condenses his decade-long dj-ing journey and evolution as a producer into a single potent elixir of contemporary techno. owing to his additional projects, such as collaborating with pan artist konrad sprenger on a modular organ system to be installed in museums, or scoring for a neue musik ensemble, the berlin-based efdemin is known as hiker between the worlds . his regular stints at berghain or panoramabar, his partnership with established labels (e.g. ostgut ton, dial, sushitech) and the leadership of his own na•f imprint all demonstrate that since more than a decade.

fŸnf jahre nach dem hochgelobten debŸtalbum -drone logic- wird der in london ansŠssige produzent daniel avery sein zweites album -song for alpha- via phantasy veršffentlichen. der neue longplayer ist die weiterentwicklung des klanglichen vokabulars von daniel avery. die ideen zu den tracks sind meist unterwegs entstanden: zwischen clubnŠchten und endlosen flŸgen, zwischen stundenlanger autofahrten und unzŠhligen nŠchten im hotel. die 14 tracks auf -song for alpha- sind ein bravouršser handschlag zwischen dršhnenden klŠngen, die ganze tanzflŠchen fŸllen kšnnen und leisen tšnen fŸr ruhigere augenblicke, ambient-momente stehen gekonnt den hypnotisch-schweren technobeats gegenŸber

inside out is a brand new series that invites djs and producers to blur the boundaries between traditional artist albums and mix compilations. coming from aus music label head and dj-kicks curator will saul, the concept encourages artists to showcase their own music and or the music of those in their own individual circles. the mix will be release digitally and on cd, while a selection of the tracks will also be available on double gatefold vinyl. each instalment will feature 100% new and unreleased music.

with situational awareness, post-punk legends crash course in science deliver an album consisting entirely of brand new material. the songs on situational awareness sound crisp and ultra-fresh, while the band from philadelphia, usa, maintains their distinctive diy sound created by toys, kitchen appliances and self-built synths. far beyond new wave, the music is experimental and danceable at the same time - science and art, together hand in hand. the cd edition contains a remix of im here to tease as a bonus track, not available on the vinyl album.

kuf create emotion-laden dialogues across layers of time and dimensions of sound. voices recorded in private are chopped up and brought out center-stage to sing with beats hammered out right here and now. glowing synths push forward. basslines rise to grab the melodic role of a track while a vowel is truncated and locked into a grid, driving the rhythm. voices move within the frame of a sample, performed by hands pushing keys, guided by the ear, immersed in a trio sessions deep flowÉ a vortex of quirky hands, responsive ears and glowing circuits. since thomas a. edison first recorded the human voice in 1877, the recording arts have changed music forever. musicians have explored the endless possibilities of bouncing their input onto layers of tape, off the walls of an echo chamber or the circuitry of electronic helpers - technology that modulates, spatializes, shifts, divides or multiplies the work of human hands and mouths. an era of sampling offered a cubistic analysis of the recorded past and djs took dancers onto intricately fractured time travels. this is the historic foundation that kuf keep probing. just like the sampler and the dj before them, they found new ways to re-allocate where machine and man stand when making music together. most importantly, they turn the resulting friction into sparkling bursts of energy. Ôuniverse digs deeper into the android vocal chords. the album offers sweeping melodies, different beats and persistent bass. immerse in the intimacy of the voices, probably recorded in trains, backstage areas and at late night private parties during berlin lichtenberg warehouse rehearsals. by striking the keys, kuf squeeze out and serve up all the soul accumulated in those savory phonetic shreds.

after showcasing his knack for emotive productions via various eps throughout his career, including chart-topping singles on hot since 82s knee deep in sound and dave seamans selador, the swiss artist several definitions now reveals his first full-length album. it should come as no surprise that the artist found familiarity in what he calls the berlin style of electronic music and notably, that of oliver koletzkis stil vor talent. reborn after the road is an intense and emotional affair, consisting of 14 tracks crafted using field and live recordings, switching between analogue and digital to mould a sonic atmosphere that emblazons the artists core ethos. although the personal experience that sparked the inspiration for the lp is far from pleasant, several definitions style is audibly resolute. reborn after the road, the albums eponymous track, creates a fitting intro for the healing process that is to follow. its airy pads and majestic strings sonically stand at the epicenter of the expressive album. several definitions continues to explore these sounds on vaporous slices like pontce?ard 32 or the more acidical last breath. the mellifluous, feminine vocals of lameduza on learn to feel and her, as well as spanish singer goldsuns crooner talents on the introspective trust, on the other hand, showcase several definitions ability to work the human voice into his musical explorations. taking introspection one step further towards darker realms, senelity then feels like a rite of passage into the deeper and more intense segment at the albums core. over you briefly signals a turning point, with its alarm-like synths and grave leads, which is then followed by the glitchy resistance on modular spaces.

recognition opens up its archives and invites to a futuristic sentimental journey with respective stages set by the 9702. album contains a set of varied tracks recorded within five years after warsaw labels launch and its first release. extended compositions and short improvised sound notes resemble eccentric propositions of such labels as (early) warp or rephlex, standing next to melancholy-saturated minimalistic techno and abstract collage structures which prove out to share many characteristics of clicks n cuts movement of the second half of the 1990s. usage of human voice samples is an outstanding feature of many of these archive materials. entirety of mastered-anew content encompassing both records, contains all principal trademarks which distinguish jacek sienkiewiczs creations and his label recognition - utmost care about depth of sound sphere, experimental inclinations and focus on complex motoric aspect of the rhythmical base. this collection of music from recognitionÕs first five years, surprising for its freshness and sheer impetus, is a must for all fans of jacek sienkiewicz and polish electronic music of the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. in connection with publication of yet-unheard tracks, jacek shares another slice of yet-unknown artistic vision, connecting sound with other media such as image, light and movement. recognition xx audio-video performance comes out in summer as a result of this retrospective look.

cd- cristobal rawlins, aka raw c returns to no. on his 3rd appearance for the label with his debut album antebellum. no. 307. furthering the audio niche heÕs chainsawed out for himself in his tin shack studio deep in the ghettos of santiago de chile. the influence of his decaying urban surrounding is plain to hear in his definitively raw productions. channeling the chaotic noise of the bustling cityscape into an aggressive groove to combat the daily torment of the outside world. raw c presents 9 tracks of funk filled fury with which to blast sound systems and subdue barrios from santiago to st. tropez.

at the end of august, sound artists and producers drvg cvltvre, strict nurse, staplerfahrer and pim kersten examined the audio capabilities of a huge steel art structure. in a 5 hour session they scraped, pushed, hit, wiped, connected and kissed the steel rings. everything was recorded and these three tracks are the results of those sessions. they were recorded live in park 013, where the iconostase was housed and which adds a sea of dark reverb to the sounds of the steel rings

hotflush are proud to introduce an exciting young artist, pyur, along with her singular debut lp epoch sinus. despite her relative newness, pyur meets the world with fully formed and unique signatures in both visual and sonic work, revealing a deep artistry that transcends medium. growing up in munich, in and amongst the same fecund scene that spawned artists like the zenker brothers and skee mask, pyur cut her teeth from a young age as a guitarist and singer before becoming spellbound by the electronic worldÕs endless scope for sound design. endowed with innately strong synaesthesia and reared in a shamanic household, she tells how music Òplayed the biggest role in my growth. it alone had the purpose to help me dissolve boundaries, discover the beauty of lifeÕs mechanisms, create freely. it talked. soon i felt like the music was making me, not the other way round.Ó epoch sinus is a seamless and heartfelt whole, a life-like being unto itself, describing the disintegration of barriers between the self and the all. here pyur offers an intimate and personal statement, combining knowledge of universal harmony with electronic music. she states: Òi m mainly influenced by my inner visions and nature itself, yet also a lot from club culture, which is undoubtedly an important space of connection and freedom for so many people. the record dances playfully between supposedly incompatible qualities: moments of brutality turn to softness, new life embraces decomposition, while explosive rhythmic and melodic structures are tempered with gentle and subtle percussion.

ryan hunn, auch bekannt als dj und produzent illum sphere, kehrt mit seinem zweiten album glass zu ninja tune zurŸck. es ist passenderweise sein klarstes statement bisher: neun sowohl dynamische, als auch fokussierte tracks, die raum lassen, um sich in ein lebendiges, gro§es ganzes zu verwandeln. beim hšren fŠllt vor allem die klare abgrenzung von illum spheres bisher gewohnten sound auf. i wanted to make an album very different to the first, sagt der produzent, one with a different palette, pace and energy. eine verŠnderung in situation and style, wie ryan das beschreibt, ersetzt die scharfen wechsel und drastischen †bergŠnge seiner bisherigen veršffentlichungen und erinnert mehr an seine spectre vex und second sight 12inches oder seine mixe fŸr fabriclive und dekmantel. glass ist versunken in mechanischer tiefe und pulsierender festigkeit, erinnert an die zeitgenossinnen helena hauff und kassem mosse und wird illum sphere, dem bisher wohl bestgehŸtetsten geheimnis der szene, sehr wahrscheinlich zum durchbruch verhelfen

clark liefert den soundtrack fŸr die von warp films co-produzierte serie the last panthers auf sky atlantic. dabei bricht er mit seiner bisherigen diskografie und kombiniert im stile zeitgenšssischer kŸnstler wie mica levi, mogwai, jon hopkins oder olafur arnalds naturklŠnge mit klinischen, maschinell produzierten gerŠuschen und einer experimentellen, erforschenden attitŸde. die auflagen der tontrŠgerformate sind limitiert. nach der streng limitierten cd-erstauflage im hardcover-format wird der soundtrack jetzt als digipak langfristig lieferbar gemacht.

based on the eponymous play by brothers and author/performer team tobi and mike mŸller at schauspielhaus zŸrich, swiss experimental documentary film a1 traverses through time and space along switzerlandÕs first and most elongated highway structure. rich in archival sources, it sheds light on the costs and benefits of rapid movement: social, migratory and ecological patterns, economic and military designs that are mostly not immediately obvious to the casual motorist. stefan goldmannÕs soundtrack engages the filmÕs multi-layered aesthetics full on, providing a dazzling array of short compositions. profoundly synthetic in production, this free-wheeling phantasmagoria of peculiar, yet intensely likeable miniatures branches off into all directions Ð from minimalistic to overflowing, calm to banging, nightmarish to soothing. the visual patina of historic documents is playfully mirrored in intense distortion and noise artifacts, bound into rhythmic units and melodies formed of ghost notes. finding ever new ways of mining his techno background to yield surprising new forms and ideas, stefan goldmann has proven his abilities in a dazzling range of projects over the past years. works for dance, ensembles, an opera and various object-based creations made him a natural choice for the job of finding a refreshing way of linking sound and image. on its own, the music holds up by putting the listener on a high-velocity road trip of the curious mind.

max ravitz has made a name for himself with his hazed dance not dance productions over these last couple of years appearing on a handful of different labels under a handful of different monikers. here on the 15 track, -common purpose- cd we get ravitz in all of his different forms as he teams up with numerous artists from his local brooklyn scene and beyond, serving up unheard cuts from numerous recording sessions done over the last years. through the record we hear the producer s versatility from tripped out downtempo vibes, to mid-paced acid, to high bpm dust burners, as ravitz and co. explore almost all possible avenues while in the studio. collaborators include huerco s., jahiliyya fields, ngly, terekke, bookworms, cloudface, and josephine.

nach dem re-release der grandiosen retrospektive orange cloud nine des niederlŠndischen gitarristen spike wolters, dessen vier achtziger-alben mittlerweile kultstatus geniessen, folgt nun das remixalbum orange cloud version, auf dem die besten kŸnstler des new yorker golf channel-labels die tracks dieses enigmatischen kŸnstlers neu interpretieren. mit dabei sind juju & jordash, mark. e, abel nagengast, chris munoz aka sexican, dj nature und mind fair.

das japanische kult-girl-trio nisennenmondai hat nach einer kollaboration mit electro-dub-produzent shackleton in 2015 sein neues album mit dub-legende adrian sherwood aufgenommen und entwickelt sich damit von einer noisey no-wave-band weiter in richtung organic techno. zu ihren die-hard-fans zŠhlen die battles, prefuse 73 und chris & cosey (throbbing gristle), die internationale trendpresse (nme, the wire, dazed & confused) lobt sie Ÿber den klee. dank sherwoods teilnahme gewinnen winzige rhythmische details und subtile dub elemente an bedeutung, die erinnerungen an den klassischen basic channel sound wecken. die internationale ausgabe enthŠlt zusŠtzlich zwei live dub mixes, die sherwood in tokios unit club mit zahlreichen effekten live aufnahm.

ever since first appearing on bristol s black acre imprint back in 2009, kwesi darko s blue daisy project has been hard to pin down. 2011 debut album the sunday gift was a triumph of woozy downtempo fusion, with bustling bass music influences rubbing shoulders with folksy elements, ambient, trip-hop and experimental electronica. following black acre s demise, darko now finds himself on r&s, a label willing to let him follow his unique path. as a result, sophomore album darker than blue is an even more adventurous and enjoyable set than its predecessor, with darko adding modern classical, beat poetry and hazy jazz influences to his already heady musical brew.

mikkel metal was the first artist on echocord, and the main reason why the label was started back then. after many many releases we are very happy and proud that he now returns with a full lenght album. more than 7 years after his last long-player album mikkel metal returns with a new album for echocord. bypassing dub-techno as the starting point, this is music clearly consistent with earlier output. we are presented with 10 tracks that all evolve with around a melancholic melodic framework. while there is clearly a nod to detroit and another to dub- techno, the overall impression is consistently and unmistakably the sound of mikkel metal. a hypnotic, very enjoyable and thorough return from the danish artist.

italian dj and producer manuel fogliata hasnÕt released a lot of records over the last ten years, but the few he has put out have always been worth tracking down. perhaps best known for his work alongside donato dozzy in creating the much sought-after aquaplano records at the tail end of the last decade, nuelÕs solo outings have been just as consistent and just as impressive. whether taking on metallic electro or syrupy, bass-heavy ambience, nuelÕs attention to detail and his keen ear for a groove has made each release something to treasure. nuelÕs only previous full-length, trance mutation (further records, 2011), was a masterpiece of minimal repetition.

evantis, ein alias von einem der innovativsten elektronischen kŸnstler unserer zeit, wird sein debŸt album romantic psychology 1 ende oktober 2015 via technicolour records / ninja tune veršffentlichen. es handelt sich um das erste lebenszeichen von levantis seit der 2013 erschienen believe ep auf the trilogy tapes und ist ein elf song starkes album about nigredo and possession of the shadow. technicolour wurde ursprŸnglich von ninja tune als reines single-label gegrŸndet. nach 12inches von legowelt, hieroglyphic being, florian kupfer, kutmah, bnjmn und u ist romantic psychology 1 das erste album auf technicolour. die schwarze 180g vinylversion kommt in tiefschwarzem sleeve mit lackiertem titel, das innenliegende albumartwork stammt von eve ackroyd und wird gedruckt auf unbeschichtetem 300g kunstpapier. ein downloadcode ist ebenfalls beigelegt.

darkstar bewiesen sich bereits mehrfach als vorreiter der britischen elektronikszene. sie arbeiteten u.a. mit kŸnstlern wie actress, zomby und wild beasts zusammen. ihre frŸhen maxis auf hyperdub und die beiden alben north (hyperdub, 2010) und news from nowhere (warp, 2013) gelten als bahnbrechend. nun haben sie mit foam island ein werk geschaffen, das ihrer generation eine stimme gibt. die produktion reicht von expansivem uptempo-pop Ÿber dichte atmosphŠre und mutierten neptunes-r&b bis hin zu ungezwungenen sound experimenten. harte digital rhythmen und live-percussion treffen auf farbenfrohe synths, in die aidan whalleys leadvocals nahtlos integriert werden. ein perfektes electronic pop-album, das so nur in 2015 entstehen konnte

die zeitspanne - fast 8 jahre nach dem gefeierten debŸtalbum -pan-o-rama- und 3 jahre nach der -mobilee back to back- (2cd+dvd) compilation-ausgabe - ermšglichte dem berliner techno-duo die entfaltung konsequenter ideen und visionen fŸr sein zweites album. †ber die spanne von 14 tracks zeigen pan-pot ihr makelloses verstŠndnis fŸr sounddesign, das genreŸbergreifend von peaktime-techno Ÿber experimentelle bŠsse bis pop- und downbeat-einflŸssen reicht. -the other- ist der eindrucksvolle beweis fŸr enthusiasmus, leidenschaft und vollster †berzeugung, und das ergebnis einer polaritŠt, aus der man in symbiotischer weise profitieren kann. nach primetime-slots auf namhaften festivals wie time warp, creamfields oder jŸngst glastonbury, haben pan-pot seit diesem sommer auch eine eigene dj-residenz fŸr den hyte event im amnesia auf ibiza inne. kurzum: der stein rollt und er rollt mŸhelos aufwŠrts.

obsidian lŠsst raum fŸr melodie zwischen den kicks und snares und šffnet sich dem hšrer in einem traumŠhnlichen gefilde. damage verzichtet dabei eher auf rohe beats, tracks wie cosmonaut, parallax view und transmission liefern aber mit sicherer schlagkraft einen adrenalinschub. es sind jedoch die sphŠrischen titel wie pulse width und poly, das acid-angehauchte tetrapod und das gro§artige shimmer, mit denen sich der kŸnstler tiefer in das unbekannte wagt. man fŸhlt sich an die genialitŠt von afx, skam und autechre erinnert. obsidian zeichnet sich durch ein zusammenspiel aus wŠrme, herz, seele und viel, viel schwei§ aus und zeichnet somit ein perfektes bild und ein grandioses finale fŸr das label.

it takes time for a series of seperate ideas to evolve into a fully concepteptualized album if it wants to have a place in history for ali and basti schwarz, better known as tiefschwarz. since 1998 the duo, as both djs and producers, have perfected the art of dominating the moments only experienced on a dance floor, deeply immersed in sound. their music is unique as it is creative.

much-celebrated kompakt staple the field returns to the spotlight with new album the follower, his fifth full-length offering after from here we go sublime (kompakt rsd 02 cd 57), yesterday and today (kompakt 193 cd 72), looping state of mind (kompakt 241 cd 94) and cupids head (kompakt 290 cd 110). swedish soundsmith axel willner is well-known for his mastery when it comes to the allusive layering of loops, but it was with his last album cupids head that a newly-found, somewhat pressing snappishness started to replace the soft-hued sonics of his ambient-infused techno, imbued with a darker mood and stronger footing than before. a carefully gauged balance of stoic motorik and gloomy drones was key here - just as it is for the follower which goes even further in blurring the lines between concrete experimentation, body music and precisely laid-out arrangement, leading to one of the most rhythmically and texturally engaging listening experiences in willners catalogue.

nach einem fulminanten debŸtalbum, das sowohl dancefloors der welt als auch kritiker au§er atem lie§, kehrt jeremy guindo aka bambounou nun mit centrum in albumlŠnge zurŸck. guindo benutzt verspielte electro-synths (echter electro, siehe detroit), die den hšrer in einen trance-zustand versetzen, der durch die peitschenden percussions von tracks wie each other gestšrt wird. im gegensatz zu orbiting bewegt sich centrum eher weg von bass und footwork und hin zu ambient und techno.

alland byallo has crafted ten unique tracks for the mighty uk imprint. bones, flesh stands out for its distinctive vibe and groove. from the opening track looking long to the closing singularity the album stirs and flexes, flies and touches down with elan, sounding raw, alive, organic and original all though. all the while being a record that moves the mind and the body from start to finish

when it comes to electronic music and techno music there are few cities that have conserved and upheld the foundational roots laid down by its pioneers more so than berlin. one of the center-most characters in this movement is the inimitable der dritte raum. aydszieyalaidnem is the latest offering from kruegersder dritte raum project.

opfer is a new project by dutch artist ian martin and belgian artist sebastien crusener and monument is their first album. ian martin needs no introduction to fans of adventurous electronic music. his versatile style allowed him to release on illustrious labels such as bunker, abstract forms or further records. sebastien crusener has provided all source material in form of field recordings for their project and ian modelled a abstract, minimal and dark ambient album that showcases a bleakness and almost disturbing coldness but yet makes you feel safely encapsulated in a world of comfort and strange beauty. additionally sebastien has kindly provided some wonderful poetry that gives you more insight into the world of opfer. dark ambient at its best. 150 manufactured hand numbered cds in slim line dvd case. the first 100 copies include a limited sheet with poetry by sebastien crusene

industry sheds all personalized effort and tests how far you can get by using presets only. all sounds are factory presets of 3 obsolete 1990s japanese workstation synths, all effects are presets, all notes are quantized and most panning is purely accidental (laid out in the preset sounds). industry doesnt rely on successful presets, but on failed sounds of now obsolete synthesizers - industrial assumptions of where culture will go, but where it chose not to. the result is a surprisingly pleasant listening experience with effortless grooves and rich textures - and mildly demonic connotations. from smooth to kicking - a conveyor belt enjoying mood swings. as beautiful as the scheduled meeting of a pvc sheet and a thermoform mould on a workbench

walking through the skyÉfive years ago christian naujoks, peter m. kersten and richard von der schulenburg started a series of spontaneous recording sessions without any intention or idea. the only thing what held the group together were the immediate results hitting the three musicians straight inside their hearts. jazz as a metaphor of instrumental conversation, improvisation in the most dillettant way, science as a matter of exploring the opposite sound of what instruments were built to, these might be parts of a concept where there was none.
