it s been a while since al kent the scottish disco guy released anything on his own label. but since he s celebrating 20 years of million dollar disco in 2019 this seems like the perfect time to rectify that. following on the heels of a string of successes for labels like gamm, razor n tape, cree and bbe, this sublime piece of disco soul has been road tested all over europe and beyond, with each play getting the same massively positive reaction and a queue of punters dying to know what the hell they ve just danced to! so it s probably a good idea to make this available on a super limited one sided pressing so even more people can dance to it

the new album from ghetts on double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.

“uhuru” is the debut album by summers sons & c.tappin from london and bristol. the journey of this album started back in 2015 and was inspired by the people and places of tanzania. after three years of channelling the vibe into beats and bars, it is finally here!
summers sons are turt (rap) & slim (beats) who are actually brothers. they are longtime friends with vocalist and pianist c.tappin. their music can be described as rap with a lot of jazz. we like to call it cool bap.
the double vinyl, including instrumental edits of all songs on vinyl 2, comes in a gatefold cover.

the 3rd release from denise rabe on her own imprint, backed up with remixes from orphx and nur jaber. comes in a screen printed sleeve.

detroit label my baby focusses on letting underground local talent shine, and that is the case with the second ep, a various artists affair featuring label boss mister joshooa, plus remote viewing party and tammy pickle with a remix from my baby. the acts featured on this release are all residents of the famous tv lounge/tv bar venue in detroit.

the whiskey pickle crew turn their attention to a new partnership from steve cobby and laurie welton, the former being known for decades of djing, label management and producing alongside the likes of stephen mallinder for throne of blood. here the emphasis, as expected with whiskey pickle, is on disco with a slight leaning to the left. -absolute- is a bubbling jam laden with illustrious threads of melody, cosmic in nature but still rooted thanks to a rock solid rhythm section. -limoncello- is a more introspective affair that works with minor chords and a more intricate set of drums, but don t be fooled the groove is very much still intact. new york duo whatever/whatever bring a tougher dynamic to -absolute,- dialing in some beefy beats and amping up the synth touches for a surefire house heater. played by

across hacienda classical, the collision of dance music anthems with orchestral instrumentation breathes new life into club anthems across both the more famous and more underground tracks included. the album has been executive-produced by peter hook, together with producer phil murphy and its release allows fans to enjoy the live set for the first time outside an event. the release of this innovative album will allow fans to enjoy ‘haçienda classiçal’ as a recording for the very first time and alongside the welcome new c4 documentary, provides fans with a unique insight into the show, the music and the characters involved.
the double vinyl release is housed in a gatefold sleeve.

the third release from new imprint dama dama, is another offering from label co-founder pedestrian, following the label’s well-received debut ep - ‘circadian rhythms’ . ‘pick your shots clean’ is a track inspired by this spring’s european dama dama label launch tour, which saw founding members pedestrian & maribou state take to the road, curating bespoke parties with back to back all night dj sets. as ever, the music itself is hard to categorise, but we would say that it sits somewhere between a rugged 90’s chemical brothers track and a 70’s arabian psych-rock record. the flipside - ‘airs & graces’ - serves as a counter-balance (a kind of yang to the ying of the a-side), that picks up where circadian rhythms left off, taking the listener off on a melodic 5-minute trip. currently gearing up to release a new signing in the dama dama camp, the team also have their sights set on the curation of festival stages, more intriguing night endeavors and a new mixtape series, all set for delivery over the coming months. pedestrian now with his sights firmly set on writing his debut lp, will be found at a number of festivals over the summer.

fancy humans leigh morgan has been knocking around a while, running urban torque recordings for the best part of a decade throughout the naughties. having reached a satisfactory level of noodle shinnery on his baldy bonce, he has put down the scalp polish and finally started making music. project pickle is his second solo ep. project pickle includes three original tracks, nailing his colours to the mast, dilly of a pickle begins with a clear indication of pickle preference, pie on the sly the accompanying dish, and almost champion a nod to the ultimate disappointment in food related release punnery. we asked chocky to come on board for remix duties, once he d told us which was his favourite pickle, his answer we ll take to our graves. chocky has been winning plaudits for his deep dubby jazzy grooves through artful division, nature soul music, roots for bloom and audio parallax etc, and here he s on great form with, er, a deep dubby jazzy re-imaging, lovely stuff.

the first vinyl only release on pick.sel records is a 4 track solo ep by pelo rizardo (act natural records,yoruba grooves,deep tech records). back in the game ep is a journey through minimal, techno and dub sound delivered in a totaly unique style and manner. pelo s ever evolving sound is captured on this vinyl at it s crucial point.

der ausnahmeproduzent flying lotus legt nach seinem vielbeachteten debutalbum los angeles den nachfolger vor! auf cosmogramma weitet er das spektrum der integrierten stile in richtung space-jazz aus und lädt ein zu einem kosmischen trip voller unendlicher liebe und begeisterung für musik in all ihren variationen. mit musikern wie rave coltrane, einem weiteren sprössling der coltrane-famile, dem bass-virtuosen thundercat und den gastvokalisten thom yorke (radiohead) und laura darlington (siehe debut) gelingt ihm der aufstieg zu schwindelerregenden neuen kreativen höhen. mit cosmogramma belegt flying lotus eindrucksvoll, weshalb ihn die matriarchin der globalen bass music, mary-anne hobbs, als den >hendrix seiner generation< bezeichnet.

dancing in the dark - this track simply moves you in so many ways, excellent percussive programing & synth lines that wave in & out of this simply. very nice piece of work. a new talented artist to watch out for in 2008.
padded cell - pick pocket comes with yet another deep cut, this time more minimaldub than techno, with some deep basic channel frequencies that will make you connect with your deeper side. it s all about the rhythm & the sound ...

tony senghore is no stranger to the world of electronic house music. after countless releases under various monikers including records for paper recordings, music for freaks, underwater and seasons he now graces john dahlbäck s incredibly successful pickadoll imprint with his particular definition of driving & playful dance-floor insanity. way out is based upon a non-stop bass line and perfectly embodies tony s advanced musical temperement by including oriental melodies and fierce efx. careful you don’t lose control on the dancefloor! ‘way off’ on the flipside displays his ability to combine bass-heavy rhythms with simple, keen riffs – but no less mental for it!

this is the second 12 inch taken from the latest album of this boy wonder. more insane action music for excessive parties with mad melodies, tweaked and off killer basses and killer arrangements..
