truncated soul samples are carried by no-nonsense rhythms before a switch up snaps in to catch the dance floor off guard. added shuffles and trumpet snips build a buoyant and jazzy vibe that brings another coup for third ear and another truly fine addition to wbeeza s catalogue to a close.

bubble clocks opens with the sublime talking proud beautifully built around a vocal sample from one of jazz s undisputed greats, nina simone. the title track bubble clocks is over 9 minutes of dream psychedelic bass music. turn on, tune in, bliss out. punchlines is a rave/bass crossover peak time bomb, and output, the closing track is 10 minutes of totally individual vision, taking a convoluted idea and teasing it out in all its permutations. a major talent in the making who has been showing promise, delivers on this ep.

sarrass returns with his debut album, titled dirty gear, on third ear. dirty gear is one of the deepest and most sublime pieces techno

momomo is morgan garralon, resident of bordeaux in south west france. the dard dart ep comes on like early audion, spectral sound, plastikman or jeff samuel but french and wilder. the detail is in the destruction. momomo began with an interest in classical music before discovering electronic music in particular ambient music. from then, he ventured into industrial techno. the music he now creates lies somewhere between these two intensities: ambient and industrial. in his own words momomo describes his sound as dark-waved deep techno

el prevost returns with four more bombs, following up the success of the remixes of allez ally by apollonias dan ghenacia and shonky.

originally from california and now residing in montreal, stefny winter arrives on third ear with a fully-formed sound. this music is dark and trippy with plenty of weight. the tracks are long, on average 8 minutes and unfold relentlessly, never letting go. over an hour of beautifully imagined and carefully realised techno, finishing with the stunning rise.

in 2011, julia thompson (dj black b1tch) gave me a tdk sa90 tape of a spontaneous live jam by insync recorded in her flat in forest hill, south london in march 1991. she had found it in a drawer when clearing out stuff. she gave it to me to listen to simply thinking i might be interested in hearing it. of course i was, particularly because the date on the tape immediately told me that the session was recorded more than a year before the release of insyncs debut, the seminal storm on irdial discs.

b.riddim is luis sequeira, a portuguese living in london. magic my ear is his second ep for third ear, following the (in) theory ep in 2012. formerly a driving force in the influential portuguese rap group g-ward under the name bellatur, luis followed his love of jamaican dub using electronics to arrive at a sound which is identifiable through the sum of its parts but which is quite unique.

nice price deal !!! new years deal - all the tracks on alex burkats latest release, the ep 285 kent are references to, homages to, and an elegy for various ny clubs and clubbing experiences

what does radiation sound like? what do the effects of radiation sound like? what happens when a musician with why sheep?s imagination and skill tries to answer these questions? 11 march is the 3rd anniversary of the tsunami that hit the pacific coast of japan and set in motion the disaster at the fukushima nuclear plant. 31th march sees the release of why sheep? s radiation ep. radiation 1 and 2 with remixes by kare san sui surrounding, another why sheep? moniker.

from the often indistinct morass of modern hip-hop comes something so singular as to merit special attention wrote the guardian about: brownstudys tell me more about bubble album, released on third ear in 2005. a most soulfully cerebral volume of no-pose wisdom. mojo wrote, musically: brownstudy evokes the clammy, distressed soul of sly stones riot, and the lush visions of 4 hero. life well lived is brownstudys new album. 11 songs (9 lyrical flows and 2 intrumentals).

third ears detroit beatdown series was instrumental in redefining the perception of detroit electronic music abroad

el prevosts and d. hams warped allez ally from el prevosts ash ep on third ear gets the apollonia remix treatment from dan ghenacia and shonky.

its all in the title. party music!

third ear drops five cuts from mgun (manuel gonzales). harsh and abrasive, aching and reflective by turns, the grainy sound of this music creates an aura all its own as the sounds resonate and reverberate against each other in deliberately unpredictable ways

third ear recordings is proud to release exit earth. it is imaginative. it is beautifully written, played and produced. it reminds us how much we love techno. contains a download voucher with all the mp3 tracks+2 bonus tracks (not on vinyl).

filippo blasi foglietti is another third ear find well worth checking. the john nixon memorial ep is trippy, dark, deep and grooving. there are four different grooves here, all of which can disconcert and disorientate. perfect for tripping up and tripping out the dance floor.

thomas brinkmann releases the first of a series of releases on third ear. the quality and originality of these tracks reminds us just how good a producer thomas brinkmann is. techno it is, but nobody sounds like this. this, the first release is the guy martin ep, inspired by the british motorcycle racer and raconteur, guy martin. brinkmann, is himself a keen motorcycle rider and racer.

out of the ether comes something special. how did dopeus get so good while remaining almost unnoticed? sometimes it goes like that. with only a handful of tracks released, including i left my soul on planet dopeus on nite grooves darkness part 2, this is ny resident naotake gunjis first major release yet he comes on like hes been chiseling away at his sound for years. out of nowhere comes the getaway ep. its house music but its much more than that. check!

wbeezas first release since 2012s peckham fly/billy green is ded single. if you believe is a simple stone cold knockout hook over deliciously arranged elements. wacky racers is a peak time banger - maybe his hardest track so far. wise root is a slow burner, only revealing its full force after nearly 5 minutes of keeping the dance floor locked in. mo bella is a rolling, swinging live jam of irrepressible groove. four unmistakable wbeeza joints.

el prevost drops his third, and possibly his strongest set for third ear. d.ham freestyles brilliantly on allez ally, following previous collabs on third ear with el prevost on my soul responding and putting out fires. standing on my ground features lydia, whose warm tones remind of cassandra wilson or lalah hathaway. steps of a woman & sunday tingz are el prevost rinsing it on his own.

falling up in its original theo parrish version and the carl craig version on the same disc. nothing more to say. except that the carl craig version finally gets its proper title (also newly remastered versions of both classics, by stefan betke). it was never a remix as all the parts are original, created by carl craig. as scott grooves said when he first heard norm talley playing it, that aint a remix, thats a full-blown carl craig track

k hand returns on third ear with 4 killer cuts. by selecting k hands starz for his fabric 66 mix, ben klock is the latest in a long line of djs who always have k hand records in their boxes. vibe, tone and groove is why. this release is no different.

benjamin brunns first full-length since songs from the beehive with move d, leaving aside his recent colour tracks which was a history of edm.

gems from ibex, benjamin brunn, pirahnahead and theo parrish on the third ear catalogue selected and re-imagined by red rack em, xdb, lorca music and morphosis upperground orchestra. highly recommended.

sarrass returns with a new single taken from his forthcoming album, dirty gear. the a side is the spacefunk remix, by sarras, of a new day, a slo-mo fantasy of the original. this is such a feel-good track. the b side is the full length original mix only available on this single. an edit of the original version will appear on the album. classic sarras trademarks dirty and shiny all at the same time, brilliant tension building, never ends up where you think it will.

man make music’s julian neumann drops his debut for third ear and what a debut it is. four unique cuts of glinting, glistening techno, dark and bright and beautifully balanced. the groove in every track kicks and steps. this ep might be julian neumann’s first for third ear but it’s unlikley to be the last.

here it is, the follow up to pirahnheads nrtvnrg ep. the ngtvnrg ep (3eep-109) brilliantly channelled pent-up negitive energy into killer dance tracks, so the sxulnrg ep brilliantly channels sexual energy into killer grooves and words. over two pirahnahead grooves, first goddesstephanie and then mona bode deliver meditations on sex, music and dancing.

two more live jams mixed canned and pressed. wbeeza has been hassled wherever he goes to release these. first limited pressing comes in silver glitter disco bag.

b. riddim is luis manuel fidalgo fernandes sequeira, a 24 yr old portuguese living in london. the sounds on this ep encompass dubstep, dub reggae, grime, rave and electronica. b.riddim shows a deft touch on all cuts. his appreciation of and understanding of dub and its modern idioms sounds totally convincing over the whole ep.

el prevost returns for his second ep on third ear, following up the money honey ep from a year ago. four more twisted cuts from out of darkest south london. heavy.

back 2 back is built around a spontaneous live jam by dj pippi, tucillo and kiko navarro in dj pippis studio on ibiza. in a few hours they had finished the track. the ep opens with tucillo and willi graffs dub, a muscular, driving, stripped down rework of the original for a popping dance floor. kokis back dub is also a floor tool that has been well tested this summer by kiko navarro with great results. the ep finishes with a very cool afriki soul remix by bhoddi satva.

wbeeza slowly becomes one of the new house producers from the uk that establishes himself as on of the guys that always delivers hotness. warm lush tracks produced with a golden touch! 4 tracks can be found on this ep all drenched in a warm soulful bath and powerful enough to get any house floor going. essential house release! nuff said!

ok we can do a long text here... but lets not do that.... fantastic track by recast (aka fluxion)! a blissed-out track that is lush and jazzy! the experience of years of precision crafting dubby tech soundscapes is brought to these tracks, which are grooving house vibes executed in the melodic but quirky manner of isolee or luomo. lorca music is on remix duty here and did a great job with a clattering, skittering groove that is somewhere between 2-step and brokenbeat, the result is heavy and provides a nice alternative to the two recast versions. this is pure techno as we like it... not the banging big room techno, but techno we know from pioneers such as derrick may, carl craig, john beltran, stefan robber and the likes. no shit... this is just one of the most beautiful records we ve heard in a while.

for more than a year, third ear and benjamin have been selecting tracks for this ep and for an album to follow later in the year. the wait was largely due to the track no kicks, which initially used a chuck d acapella, titled no. when third ear couldn?t get clearance for the acapella, we suggested to benjamin that we try and think of another poet/rapper who could produce an original lyric inspired by chuck d?s flow. after some thought we suggested diamondancer, who was inspired to write the lyric she performs here. stay hungry stay foolish and acidic sun are delicious and dreamy, with a fat pulsing groove. hello ammmerika is more urgent, pushing the groove constantly.

crowdpleaser and st. plomb on third ear... what a nice surprise! four cuts of twisted, skewed, earthy house music veering to techno. served up with aplomb. great vibe and quality production on all cuts, just like we are used to get from third ear!

norm talleys classic the journey track remixed by scott grooves... essential detroit house music !

another fine third ear release to start the new year! demetrio with some blissful house tracks that are rooted in the american house traditions of some detroit pioneers as previously nicely documented on the third ear beatdown series!. jazzy, intens and bright sounding tracks with a personal demetrio giannice twist that deserve to be on that everlasting black wax!

new limited single taken with tracks that are not on the forthcoming debut album cd of wbeeza! (album is scheduled for early december) some proper jacking house tracks that go somewhere beween dj pierres 90s wild pitch mixes and modern club tracks. wbeeza prooves again that he is one of londons most talented house producers for sure!

new years deal - out of south london, el prevost comes correct with the money honey ep. funky, dirty, shiny. more of the new house sound of london. four tracks ranging from dirty deeo and grooving house tracks to peak time power tools. a new talent on third ear from their own hood with some killer peak time tracks that are mastered by stefan betke @ scape mastering.

this summer seems to be the return of fabrice lig with his album on fine art, 12on r&s and this great third ear release with remixes by... underground resistance timeline (mike banks and jon dixon), luke slater, marco passarani and fluxion! slater delivers hot techno action... peak time big room sound that will get the hands up, nice job! ur delivers the hi-tech soul techno and is unique and special as always. passarani delivers some old school detroit influenced beats refering to the hay-days of kms and kevin saunderson. could easily be our favorite mix on this 12! fluxion drops some smoking hot dubby techno. total winner remix package!!

4 new tracks by kyle hall, the man of the hour whos turning everything he touches into gold! slowly the new generation is injecting new influences, new crossovers of styles, new techniques into techno and house which didnt change much in the last decade! great to see and another release that we will cherish. recommended!

sweet 4 track ep by this newcomer... 3ear has a great ear for new artist! sarrass is hailing from the south-west of germany. he began his musical career by studying trumpet and piano and performing in small classical and jazz groups. later, after learning about klaus schulze he got in touch with techno which has (as we all know) a huge impact! he debuted release on compost black with the >home at the sea< ep. third ear discovered him and signed this sweet 4 track ep! a nice blend of detroit techno with abstract electronical sounds as being used by klaus schulze and the early german pioneers and contemorary house. great modern club tools with a nice personal twist! check!

first 350 copies comes as transparent blue vinyl in a black padded inner sleeve!!! this is the 3rd wbeeza ep on third ear recordings, following the heavy stuff ep (3eep-096) and the new skank ep (3eep-100), and shows the young londoner beginning to stretch out and further show his writing and production skills.
