though ronde music is a label gathering producers from various horizons, might it be ambient, noise, experimental or electroacoustic, they all have a common creed : the loop. jo created this locked groove label just one year ago, spreading extensively the sensitive patterns of artists such as vadim svoboda, sharp, antigone, edith progue, dscrd and cédric pigot & jow. a single 1 loop bar is to be repeated until harmonies free themselves, patterns are then stretching to the point where they merge into a psychoacoustic phenomenon. -wouldn t it be nice to have this dance last forever ?- ronde music asks all of those who haven t yet joined the round.

four tracks of highly original, impossible to pigeonhole, dancefloor-not-dancefloor music.

the original he serves up here is my groove, a firmly rooted and solid bit of house music with classically inclined vocal chants by gjeazon from crazy like a fox records, that recall eddie amador s biggest cut. subtle details embellish the groove and make it all the more standout, and those deep looping basslines really pull you into the middle of the track, which also has airy hi hats and a sleazy sense of funk. the first remix comes from afterparty founder, rinse fm radio host, former usher tour dj, southern fried affiliate and pioneer collaborator doorly, who also runs his own pigeon hole label. his remix smooths out the kinks and simmers a grainy groove for seven shuffling, seductive minutes. rolling effects and a big breakdown are sure to make for some fist pumping moments in the club. last to remix is play it down producer and foremost danish dj christian nielsen. he does so with an increased sense of urgency and his track hits that bit harder as a result, all thanks to a dirty down low bassline that just rolls and rolls.

nervus viii-i is a compilation of 5 tracks from 3 different artists, squeaky lobster (brussels), jerk (lille), hellboy (denhaag-brussels). nerve system records doesnt like to label the music into genres or put them in boxes, but if we really have to describe it: a mixture of eclectic style, soulful electronica, idm, melodic breakcore & dark, industrial electro.

excellent deep house dbl header <br riding on the back of a surge of interest in de la club, the debut lp from hold youth, comes a smartly picked repress of house don nail. while the duo is known for their eclectic vision of dance music, the first repress on the label ive been there ep is in fact an exemplary example of straight-up, no-fuss house. enjoying a modest comeback of late both as a producer and dj, nail originally released full of beestone promise ep on diy discs in 97. the stronger two of the four tracks will be repressed one on each side, * our love* and * i ve been there*, distinctive for its melodic vocal and recent inclusion in the apollonia fabric 70 compilation. while we have become accustomed to hold youth’s diversification of sounds with the current lp, i ve been there reminds us that a pigeon-holable classic can be highly refreshing

this is the ninetieth release on the ongoing resopal series. furthermore it is cavaan s first release on the label with arguably their most accomplished tracks to date. on the a side the guys spread their alternative vision of house music all over and roll out the tightly arranged amphid lampshade, characterized by impulsive beats, rhythmic synths and musical knowlodege. on the flipside, track metamorphosis builds upon several layered synths, resulting in a floor effective dense catacomb of sound. both tracks pay great attention to detail, are hard to pigeonhole and reach from modern house to far-out beat driven techno.

last year accidental records released herbert complete, a 130- track boxset featuring herberts entire extensive back catalogue. it included rare and unreleased tracks from the mid 90s right up to the critically acclaimed bodily functions and scale albums. though this might have felt like the closing of the doors for matthew herberts house moniker, particularly with the ever forward-thinking producer having moved onto making music out of an exploding bomb, a shopping list, a club and even a pig, this thankfully is not the end for this side of the prolific composers output. following last months release of the 4-track ep part 6 comes the unsurprisingly titled part 7.

the hyper-chromatic music of matt cutler marks him out as a true impressionist, as lone, he drizzles brightly coloured melody through his tracks with all the reflexive skill of a master painter daubing inks and pigment across paper. on cutlers fifth lone album, reality testing, released on r&s, he sends notes and chords rippling delicately into space before allowing them to disperse, each oozing beautifully away into the background fabric of the music. combined with rhythms that ebb and flow, shifting from propulsive club constructions to beatific coastal hip-hop, it is a sensuous, immersive, heady experience, and easily his most accomplished and selfcontained work to date.
the double vinyl comes with download code for the full album.
