classic disco anthem!

space der besonderen form, sakraler einschleig...

this 12inch features heist, which puts you behind the wheel in an explosive hi nrg car chase, and russian boat commander, which could be described as progressive cossack disco. together they take you on an epic voyage of mystery.

uk house music and disco superhero rob mello has been instrumental in shaping the evolution of the uk sound since way back when. through labels like classic, luxury service and the way ahead of its time disco elements series on azuli in the 90s, not to mention countless innovative remixes and collaborations, his production output has shone out like a supernova for well over a decade. this is a return to songwriting, to tracks with longevity and a timelessness which transcends forgettable vogues. butterfly is the debut release from this dynamic quattro known as beulah heights - three producers/writers and one singer. a dream team collaboration between royal college of music and child prodigy lyn goddard, dj/producer and film scorer rob mello, producer/dj nathan boddy aka the illustrious office gossip and the amazing vocal talent of singer katie beadle. so here we have it, the majestic first release on beulah heights. a slowly pulsating monster of a cut, shot through with a futuristically executed homage to early 80s productions and more than enough girth to guarantee a powerful response from the floor. already road tested to rapturous response, this is an absolute beauty.

clouded vision is turbo recordings and bugged out! resident matt walsh and partner, steve cook. after remixes for the likes of moby, cari lekebusch and brodinski on turbo, plus further releases for toob, we have band, king roc, johnny dynel and the golden filter to name a few, they now have their first full ep. neon rain is a slow tempo dark disco number and is backed with remixes from dissidents the niallist and astronomer. the niallist takes the track into space cosmic summerness and astronomer adds some big synth patterns, an emotional breakdown and even a rain sample. this is the first of a series of clouded vision releases with the upcoming outside ep with remixes from 4o thieves and photonz!

this one was a smash all last year at the john waynes beach parties and its not hard to see why. beautiful and hypnotic naive melodies intertwine with a gently bumping rhythm with plenty enough groove to get you off the sun lounger and dancing on the beach/by the pool/on the roof (delete as applicable). perfect for the summer that keeps threatening to happen in the uk but that we never quite seem to have, time to go on holiday. theres a killer piano part that comes in later in the second half after the clip finishes

automatic is a pumping house groover with a robotic spoken word chorus & keys from longtime pal roman andren. the other 2 cuts are exclusive to this 12inch: saville row (version for dirk) is a feel good ibiza friendly dance track perfect for driving in you car and the brand new ghetto bump.

too late for this years christmas festivities, but hopefully still an acceptable gift for vinyl enthusiasts: two previously digital-only tracks from the running back(catalogue) on one split-10inch-plate. todd terjes picturesque ambient version of ragyshs antagonist snooze 4 love is backed up by jack plugs (alias chris bishop) supernatural (disco) dub of son of sams 1984 electro punk punch nature makes a mistake. two for one, one for all and 500 copies for the world.

the sound of the late great fitzcarraldos is like sand between your toes. bittersweet love songs paying homage to otis redding, brian eno, john cale and luther vandross. this is sophisticated melodic luxury music for a generation that has the history of music up their sleeve, but really just want to meditate.

max essa returns to feel music! its almost impossible to convey the scope of >iberia sequences< in a 45 second clip, so you gotta take our word for it, 10 minutes of pure bliss, the definition of a musical journey. on the flip side >islands< mixes 80s club sounds with a touch of classic house and of course that by now classic max essa feel, while mr. fabrizio mammarella on remix duties takes the a side up a notch with some acid disco dancefloor action. summer starts here!

the second in the tribute series comes from the situation posse. continuing tributes aim to supply festival inspired battle weapons and club anthems for djs, we love leon rips a guitar riff from a well known pop band and surrounds it with played situation-style balearic goodness and then blends it all together with an ace vocal by gill scott golden. the result is a highly original and stunning melt of sound which has already had big support from djs like greg wilson and which really captures that festival vibe of old. cut loud on single-sided heavy weight vinyl, the tribute series is set to inflict some serious dancefloor damage

spaced out mixes by mighty mouse, morris and mckie and soft rocks!! cant afford to miss this...

no stranger to the cherry-picked pool of talent at somethinksounds, lucky paul now delivers his second weird and wonderful single >elephant island< on the boutique label, backed by a couple of muscular remixes from hyperdub wonderboy ossie and the unstoppable midland.

faze action mix!!

altair nouveau is among the spaciest of dfaÆs recent signings, a producer clearly as in love with the soundtracks of john carpenter as he is with italo covers of classic rock tunes. >space fortress< saves its best for the final two minutes with a synthesized trumpet lead thatÆll have you either pumping your fist or reaching for the off switch. >showdown<, meanwhile, more adequately gets at mitchellÆs soundtrack love, with its pleasantly percolating backing track giving a chance to various sounds to prove their worth. >sorcerer< embraces the hints of flourish that mitchell dropped in spots elsewhere, and goes full-on with the funk. itÆs tough, well-produced and a little bit funny to listen to in the privacy of your own homeùjust like the 80s soundtrack music that it so readily recalls.

after burning jupiter- his debut release for eskimo earlier this year, that was supported by everyone from agoria over kenny hawkes to the usual suspects such as justus köhncke, rub n tug and pete herbert - were proud to announce the follow-up!

tipp

boys and diamonds is unmistakably a pop album but also one that comfortably fits in with kompakts long-standing lineage of genre-refracting releases. you will be hard up find another record that cohesively brings to mind siouxsie rubbing elbows with shabba ranks, giorgio moroder sipping daiquiris in bali, desmond dekker envisioned through skittering footwork, tom tom club sitting in with congotronics, even early madonna produced by chris and cosey. unlikely as all of that sounds, rainbow arabia makes it sound easy. mostly recorded at their home studio in echo park, muppet palace, boys and diamonds was written and produced by the couple with help from their friends in los angeles and beyond. drummer/producer extraordinaire butchy fuego (pit er pat, boredoms, mia) contributes arrangements and beats in places, and icy demons dylan ryan plays on the percussion-heavy island shuffle nothin gonna be undone . the album was mixed at the wonderful hobby shop studios in la by mudrock, who also adds some final production touches on the record. the 11 new songs on the album, were also made possible by the encouragement of peers/heroes in la like former ghosts, fool s gold, secret circuit, abe vigoda, and part time punks dj crew. outside of their hometown, they also found support and inspiration from kindred spirits like pictureplane, spoek mathambo, as well as their new home, the ever-illustrious kompakt

bottins debut for eskimo got supported by everyone from mylo over aeroplane to prins thomas, freeform five, pete herbert, villa and many many more. now there is finally a follow-up with >discocracy/august<. again two impressive tracks, go bottin!

immaculate expansive night music. written and recorded between hungry ghosts studios in west london and a remote kent shed the attention to gear on both tracks is really rather special. the view is from above, the lights... are they on? there is life underground: these shall not last long.

supported by gildas (kitsune), les inrockupitbles (fr), discodust & more!! jupiter are based in paris. the boy/girl duo have recently moved there from london where they met on an empty dancefloor. it must have been fate (or their love for retro hits) that brought them together to write songs so deeply rooted in times when prince was still known and glitter wasnt a taboo. quarles and amÚlie are part french (the romance in their music!), part english (the lyrics!) but get along pretty well. their songwriting and production clearly takes the best of both worlds, earning them appraisal and appreciation of the valerie family. the song starlighter has been getting a lot of attention in the blogosphere and grew to become an underground hit since it was first leaked. its catchy, its dreamy, its sticky and its sweet. now, after official remixes for metronomy and chew lips, jupiter are preparing their first ep, which is to be released in september 2009, containing remixes by thai pop sensation cyndi seui and steve moore (the man behind lovelock and zombi). get ready for sheer bliss

fantastic late summer release by galaxy toobin gang, includes remixes by lee douglas, the prince of new york disco and dj overdose (of novamen and getitboyz), the dark night of the hague electro. none of the meandering ponder-o-rama of their debut album, but straight up bootywhomping dancefloor chaos this time

no vinyl , just a book with mp3 dl... it is a mix of a fanzine and an artbook. the outside is screenprinted 1c, the inside is 2c. every cover is individual, so every book isaa one off art piece. the book comes in a envelope also screenprinted on the outside. it includes a free album download code on the inside. on each page of theabook there are robis images and some stills from the workvideo. its all designed by robi himself

restored and re-mastered from the original tapes comes gigi masins much sought after first album wind. never commercially released the lp was in fact only given away at a number of small concerts, with many of the remaining copies destroyed during floods in the venice based musicians house. quickly becoming seen as something of a landmark ambient album in recent years, ‘wind is now lovingly presented again in its entirety. true to its original private issue it is once again being made available through gigi masins very own the bear on the moon records.

a very welcome return by dany dorado to adult contemporary for their tenth release. as always, on 180g with a decades proven grammy award winning technical team behind the production.

ranging from up-tempo to balearic beat, these remixes are sure to hit the mood. pete herbert brings an 80 s dance floor flavor with massive stabs to perk up any situation. a vision of panorama mix is a beautiful mellow, sexy anthemic tune, perfect for the sun beaming down on the islands of your mind. greeen linez has the ultra lounge, 90 s jazz groove covered here perfectly.

new years deal - a one sided italo-balearic bomb from japan via roy comanchero with a fantastic -wedding dub- remix of mick by non other than eddie c. hands in the air, feet on the floor and lasers going who knows where... a chuggy electronic re-rub by one of berlin s disco masters.

acid vibes and cathartic rhythms are the weapons on this second release of musica altra. produced by those crazy indianizers, the psychedelic italian cumbia band who is rocking dancefloors and stages all around the europe. here is a preview of their upcoming album including a remix by don t dj and a dub version by passenger (light touches records). close your eyes and let your journey begin.

decks tipp!!
ichisan s 2017 aperitiv was so good that we ve decided to return for a second helping from his sumptuous album. four choice cuts have been selected and reworked with a specific instrument focus. the harpsicord version of -hotel- keeps the intoxicating melody of the original but allows beats to relax as notes shine with an incandescent brilliance. drums put their feet up for the rhodes version of -modri tunel.- deep stings and lounging lines mingle in this work of smoke swirling seduction. -kozmetika (trumpet version)- dances to a different tune. rich bass is again central but this time brash and bold brass intertwine with funk filled bars. the last waltz arrives with the piano version of -terminal e.- alluring notes ascend, rising and falling against heartwrenching guitar strings for a finale to end this ballroom inspired beauty.

although better known for his euphoric uptempo european disco edit style across labels such as public possession, ostra discos and most recently bahnsteig23, here the melbourne based collector and dj steps away from the dancefloor and presents two slower paced and (dare we say) more mature, sample-based efforts on this double-a side limited edition 7 inch.

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

die erste ep auf noreple besteht aus clubtauglichen songs die von einem sound zwischen house und techno inspiriert sind, sowie sounds von nu disco, balearic und ambient.
