bleep are proud to release the debut ep of a mysterious producer named zap francis. these beats first aired on black milk’s boiler room set about a year ago but other than that, not much is known about zap francis.

devoted to the art of movement is the first record from nss (no spiritual surrender) a duo formed by j.c. (ahd co-owner together with damian schwartz) and kastil this e.p. centers it s attention towards electro, but continue ahds heritage of giving a twist to those 90s sounds that influenced us so much, from early idm to detroit, all is present here. the opening track is the one that gives the ep it s name, an acid stomper build around an electro beat that builds up and down fiercely. the track maintains its tension throughout its whole length by building strings and arpeggios over its acid sequence, never transferring its beat to a straight kick, capturing the attention since its first second. proposed playground is build around a more steady electro beat, strings and sounds merge themselves around the beat to create a beautifully hypnotic piece where where some background melodies tickle our ears bringing memories from idm golden years. zero one is closing track, without leaving the electro rhythms the defined the whole ep the track is build around a phrenetic synth sequence that sets the path for the whole length, rhythms are rough and strong and its syncopated hitting adds emphasis on that frenzy atmosphere since its first second till the last.

alan fitzpatrick makes a triumphant return to the scene-leading imprint this august. the typically bombastic three-tracker of explosive, crowd-moving techno opens with love siren packed with all the power and punch required to knock over festival crowds as it systematically builds and drops, this is one for the big open air stages. ‘u said u is a massively hyped track that has been the subject of huge fan-demand since it first featured on beyer s drumcode radio in january. rumours wraps things up in slightly more understated but non-the-less effective fashion with its drawn out, tension building intro mushrooming into a crescendo of sleazy chords and sparking melodies

he is young, he is from bulgaria and he has a big passion for music. having previously released music only on his own label, this is his first venture into the outside world. genial gladly welcomes on board stefan dichev.
his desert brothers ep, consists of 3 tracks, hide, withdrawal and, of course, desert brothers. it’s not easy to classify the ep in a specific music genre. all 3 tracks have a very distinctive drums programming and groovy bass. they could be easily played in a big club during the peak time of a set or at a dark basement during the after hours. they have this strange deepness that calms you down but at the same time the first kick after the break easily gets your fist up.
here at the genial headquarters, we always try to find the balance between things, people, relationships, music and maybe stefan dichev has just done that with his desert brothers ep… he found the balance!

i came across scaarlet at a drum’n bass party in berlin. three guys, long time members of the music scene, but so fed up by all the politics and bullshits that they decided to go underground and start again from scratch. as a fresh and new label, they decided to give us the chance to release their tracks. so honored we are! here is their press statement: we are rough, i am deep. we are now, i am history. we are straight, i am broken. we are here and i am away. we are unique, i am changing. we are old and i am young. we are image, i am vandal. we are rage and i am shiver. we are many because i am legion. i am nobody, we are scaarlet. 147 vinyl only copies worldwide. no digital. no repress. no bullshit.

volfs second ep for dolly and its on! two fierce but club friendly rolling techno tracks featuring an epic luke hess remix. with their warm and euphoric chords hydro funk and shadow section will take you right back to the golden days of techno, reminding a bit of aril brikha and the likes. detroit s luke hess on remix duties takes hydro funk into even deeper territories. an hypnotic and melancholic, yet very driving detroit techno tool. pure bliss on dolly number 23.

shlomi abers new 12inch slides perfectly into the nonplus catalogue with two slabs of straight up no nonsense techno. with well over 15 years of production history and 20 years of djing across the globe he knows exactly what it takes to move a dance floor. israel born and raised but heavily influenced by the old detroit techno movement shlomi managed to balance his roots into the modern wave of the current techno peers. working from an aladdin s cave of analogue gear he crafts a raw and groove laden sound often attempted but rarely achieved by others. takeover and street works are two tracks demonstrating hes a producer whos mastered his craft and is at the top of his game right now.

up first is gigolo, a spare and weird house cut with sine waves and random claps, hunched drums and trippy synth lines. it s a unique track made in a unique way and will lead to plenty of freaky dance floor moments, for sure. co. art is a whacked out techno cut with slap-funk claps, blistering and blistered synth lines and a rugged bit of bass underlining it all. the track is cavernous and metallic, empty and distant as if it somehow survived a nuclear blast. on the flip, alzheimer is a slow and gurgling, swampy techno number with broken drums and crawling synths that sound like their batteries have run down. icy, watery melodies eventually rain down, but the track remains resolutely eerie. last of all, fabric is another decaying track with subtle, heavily filtered synths and drums all making for a minimal groove that is barely there.

hessismore are a 7 person musicans collective based in new york and copenhagen around musical mastermind mikkel hess. they released their gomma debut ep last july. strange, beautiful music from outta space. balinese marimbas, african drums, spooky voices - great new music. now here come the remixes. dimitri from paris did an effective, supersexy disco stomper. keeping a lot from the original version. the crazy voices, the punk funk feel, the moody, new wave atmopshere. but now its a club bomb. then williamsburgs hidden underground star lorne dune reworked the other song. in a more edgy, distorted way. beautiful. then you have a version by munichs pollyester. the former bass player of munk now has gone solo. she does this kind of naive, early 80ies, powerdisco you could hear at clubs like the loft oder dj harvey playing. orgastic hardcore disco rock

erased tapes artists and friends Ólafur arnalds and nils frahm have separately carved out a musical career that defies genres both with their unique live shows and a loyal fan base that’s always eager to hear what their prolific output will bring. their latest collaborative 2-track release ‘life story love and glory’ is a live improv affair on two pianos, recorded in 2012 at nils’s durton studio in berlin. fans may wonder why they have waited until 2015 to release these tracks, but having revealed a new website www.arnaldsfrahm.com you may think this may not be the end to their musical story this year. the limited 7 inch vinyl includes a download code.

containing five synthesiser-led pieces, ‘loon’ was recorded in autumn 2014 across five days at nils’s durton studio in berlin, and continues on from the ambient sounds of ‘stare’ but with the addition of more percussive elements and dub influences. for this new ep the duo wired an oberheim 4 voice and a korg ps3100 to the mixing desk and performed live takes on both instruments. with all four hands on its pots, all mixes were recorded straight onto 2-track ½-inch tape. the vinyl ep includes a download code.

were so excited to be the guys that get to deliver you this guys debut release. luca murgia has a sound all his own he really like tom toms, he likes spacey flourishes, and overall he likes to deliver tracks with mobile electroy grooves married to the stability of house. the thing that really makes him special to us is the naturalness of feeling he achieves in his productions he has a neatness to his grooves everything lines up so the body can move freely and the dancer be in a state of flow. all four tracks on this ep have real singularity of intent in their sounds and rhythms but vary dramatically in intensity.

hedonism is an ethical theory that pleasure, in a sense of satisfaction of desires, is the highest good and proper aim of human life, and this seems to also be hdnsm’s ultimate musical objective. their first release debuted as a kickstarter of “variant ep” v.a. series, showcasing three very different yet highly contemplative creations from cumsecade, anestie gomez and man spider. hdnsm flips the coin and for the second episode of “variant” series it lands on two very solid, incredibly moody and extensive works from fresh talents shcaa and cleymoore. the ep features two very different tracks yet they share the same minimalistic core. both works are blessed with intricate micro-drum arrangements for those feeling groove hungry whilst still standing tall in the experimental abstract realm pleasing those who crave unusual frequencies. a-side’s “masquée” is one of shcaa’s typical rides between sound and silence and it is hard to find another artist who understands sound gaps between grooves better than shcaa does. with his signature vocals and an incredibly delicious duality between acoustic instrumentalism and electronic slamming, this is a groovy, highly deep, very intelligently arranged piece. the flip-side “nebula”, signed by pluie/noir’s boss cleymoore, is a tip of an iceberg when it comes to the art of stripping down. in an apparently thin canvas of minimal drum arrangements there’s a vast amount of sound frequencies underneath a steady ever-kicking groove, tricking your mind into thinking that you’re hearing less than you actually perceive. nebula is hypnotic and dense but focused and sophisticatedly groovy. like the repetitive vocals you’ll hear throughout the b-side, this v.a. sticks to your mind like an addiction of some sort and pushes hdnsm to a new standard of avant-garde and forward-thinking attitude. as before, this vinyl only release comes in a gorgeous cover featuring a painting from max binski and the number of copies available is limited

first ep of hamburg-based psychedelic voodoohop dada-pop superduo for doumen records. on+brr are known for releases on felix kubins gagarin records, martin hossbach label, hafenschlamm/freiheit&roosen as well as for their more than intense live performances in places like berghain, nation of gondwana, fusion, golden pudel etc. and last but not least for their kraniche b.d. elbbrücken club, which is fueling the scene in hamburg with their very own take on how a performance space should be like for more than two years now already and it might well be the most crazy & cozy place you will find in hamburg right now. to round everything off nicely, artwork was done by cheap art pioneer and close on+brr friend patrick farzar. a must have to show off at your next afterhour gig as well as to impress your artist friends when having them over for tea

max mcferren checks in for the third time (but first under his given name) on 1080p, taking risks and hittin’ on life over four tracks of weirded-out acid and funk-tinged elations on the “sipps” 12”. created in a time of complete uncertainty about the future in nyc’s chinatown, mcferren explores the purity of the break and acid ecologies, utilizing a “take me to your dealer” type of alien funk vocabulary in order to explore and push his own voice into a stranger place.

common edit makes a thunderous return with their 10th release and to celebrate, they re going big! 5 a whole extra 5 inches to be exact, extended cuts to keep the party going ! some of the usual suspects providing the bits and pieces on this 4 course meal. supplies for the a side brought to you by the winsome duo of khotin & dane, and their two terrifically eastern numbers imho and system . while the one and only eddie c and dane team up for a cut each on the b side. dane hands over a familiar giant with i want more and eddie ends the trip with his psychedelic guarantee in his endearingly titled one for dane . no stamps this time, dane s wrists need a break but no expense was spared in this deluxe offering. as usual, copies given away at the release party in edmonton, canada at -the common-

we here at wph are not ones to celebrate each and every significant number in our history. we do not even consider numbers to be that significant. but what we do believe is that every story has its ending and that every ending should come with a bang. and so we have decided that the regular wph series and the coloured vinyl-only series will come to an end together with one last release. we breing you a collection of three of our most wanted tracks with a little bonus thrown in ... we suggest you go really oldskool and buy double copies of this one, because you will want to play these back to back!

give a warm welcome to dirtybird artist and first non-european producer on gold records: bruno furlan from sao paolo. once labelowner rainer weichhold received these demos he was immediately convinced that there s something special in them. so after a few clubtests he was sure that he needed to release them on his label. and also the two guys from the glitz needed no long persuasion to deliver their fantastic remix for the book . but listen by yourself

göttingen//germany based sublabel of shaker plates rüttelplatten comes out with a new producer team called starskie & hagi they met. they understood. and than it was soon clear that they should work together. only the distance between dusseldorf and munich was a small problem. but the internet helped. here are the results: bogats choint with a gunman remix and feel this with a m.in remix

the second release on modern cathedrals includes an original mix by altstadt echo supplemented with remixes crafted by donor, luigi tozzi, and asop. the inclusion of donor’s remix represents a continued effort to link together the detroit and brooklyn scenes, while the luigi tozzi remix connects modern cathedrals to the ghastly, dark styles of techno that italian artists have become so respected for. as a core member of the modern cathedrals team and a primary force behind the label’s event series, asop’s remix is the very first public release of work by this incredible new detroit-based artist. but while the artist names change from record to record, the philosophy does not. we continue in a desperate attempt to generate meaning during the short spasm of a lifetime we are given in a world that seems to conspire to prevent this effort’s realization. this situation might be inescapable, but through the rejection of complacency and dogma, we can approach our end with the bitter comfort that we were at least willing to be honest about our situation.

deep dark industrial ambient. a slowly evolving soundscape with boiling buzzing sounds, resonating through the dark world.the berserk was perhaps one of the world s best fighters, which in old norse time sworn allegiance to the norse god odin. before a battle berserkers excited each other up and occurred in bearskin or wolf skin, hence the word berserk. in the beginning of the battle they performed exceptionally talented, indifferent battlers, but in close combat they fell into berserk. then they howled like wild beasts, probably to frighten the enemy and incite their comrades and themselves, and then get into rages. a berserk in battle were said not to bother about any injuries, and was therefore until the enemy, or they died.

established producer d marc cantu has been crafting his own style of jakbeat since the late 90s, but comes to nyh with some dark and experimental techno and drones.

mikael strömbergs alter ego igor has created the album *fast & slow* who is an aspiring masterpiece in the ambient genre, the references are very clear to the 70s iconic ambient school, including satie-cage-eno-soundart, but at the same time a modern touch and a sense of the present. the story behind this album is the least frightening and fascinating as the composer strömberg was seconds away from losing his lives when the aorta ruptured all the way from top to bottom with the diagnosis: acute aortic dissection. the music became a part of his rescue and the record *fast and slow* came about as part of his healing process.

cute heels screamed onto the scene with his debut album on dark entries. the colombian s blend of ebm and minimal synth with driving rhythms electrified interest with juan atkins describing him as -the new blood and spirit for the next step in techno music.- tough words to live up to, but this talented artist has done atkins proud with his excellent five tracker, nepotism ep. measured and thoughtful the ep is packed with eclipsed wave and bold beats. future classics shine from the drop. -nepotism structure-, with its blackened chords and stark chords, is brimming with a primal energy. -madame counsellor- ups the tempo, adding some extra squalor with wretched 303 writhe. cute heels refuses to sit in one genre, electro coming to a head in the shimmering mechanics of -cabaret literal.- -the pulse (sex drive)- closes in a seedy blur of neon lights and showing synthlines. bleak and bold brilliance from bogota.

limited information on this release, it contains two super edits that have been heavily road tested on a certain soundsytem that is currently doing the rounds. not much information beyond that but the music speaks for itself. slow mo with impact and energy. more soon.

timmy p has been releasing music since 2010, but releases on esteemed labels such as local talk and dirt crew have really made him catch the attention of the wider public and industry big hitters such as steve lawler, darius syrossian, sidney charles and waze & odyssey. timmy now steps up to the plate for belfast s seven music. the strong advice ep is some of his finest work to date. from the disco infused title track, through the vibey slug life to the moodier bla bla and all rounded of by one of the uk s hottest new names on the scene, montel on the remix.

we were very excited indeed to see the third release from the quite promising love notes from brooklyn imprint! marco zenin was a featured artist on the last release under his dj octopus guise, and this time he s featured again with his other project, the more techy/ more minimal die roh, who recently had an underground athem with their release on black venison. the duo here seemingly lean their sounds in the direction of the label s and offer two-cut ep which is their deepest effort yet to date. surely more djs will play the dancier a side, behind 6000, but for us, the groovier b side and title track genghis kahn is the choice cut. label owner, nathaniel jay, continues in the precendent he s set with each release having its own unique love note,authored by him, making every one of these records collectable.

lucky, the third single from ghost culture, is a distinct slice of haunting vocal performance and psychedelic electronica. co-produced by erol alkan, it is also perhaps the strongest showcase yet of ghost cultures burgeoning prowess as not only a natural studio experimentalist but also as a confident and compelling songwriter, creating music that’s both instantly memorable and yet always intriguing. complimenting the original recording of lucky is a remix from the pioneering matthew dear in his audion guise, whose celebrated talent for bridging esoteric elements of techno, pop and dub lends itself perfectly to exploring the detailed and subtle layers of ghost cultures unique vision. the remix drops on vinyl and via digital stores in mid september, just head of greenwoods hotly anticipated next london headline show at corsica studios on the 23rd. dont miss it.

glenn underground reworks joi cardwells imperfect from 2007. a killer remix that should have been released on the 12inch but wasnt. backed with his remix of julie crochetiere s steady ground, the title track to her 2011 album. her soulful vocals match perfectly to his soulful beats.

helsinkis lauri saine is the storyteller for this, the third chapter of fools & fables. pleasingly his irresistible releases dont come along all that often, but when they do, they justifiably make serious waves. small remedies, takes us on a journey to a side of saine we seldom see. first things first, blush cuts a breezy, cheerful path through a warm analogue space, with the mid-tempo throb of sampled rhythms to keep you from drifting too far off course. casual wears altogether looser pants as we just bob to and fro in a hammock while rum-soaked session players jam away in a distant speakeasy. the tropical breeze blows free through leisure song too, as we begin to get the impression finland might actually be a small pacific island.

taking the counter comment to the album’s title track ‘the day is my enemy’, the prodigy are pleased to offer details of a forthcoming ep entitled ‘the night is my friend’ on limited translucent vinyl. the ep includes album tracks ‘get your fight on’ and ‘rhythm bomb’, two fresh remixes and the previously un-released, fan favourite ‘awol’. ‘awol’ has been a track the band have played live since 2012 but as the album writing and recording process developed the band decided to hold awol back . now, after reworking it into a new unheard version they feel it’s time to make it available on record.

volkan ak&#305,n is a fresh name in the scene that already buzzed some radars worldwide and succeeded in impressing and released his music in well established imprints like sammy dee’s ultrastrech where he had his brilliant debut with a villalobos remix. with “sinister” he skims away from his usual stripped down minimalistic grooves and presents us two tracks of lush, intimate works of deep textures, analog machine love-making noises and intricate drum arrangements with very personal tones. and while the a side “sinister” keeps us on edge with a virtually consistent momentum of suspense and a very conveniently sinister mood, the flipside “atest” takes us on a ride between the high skies and the deep seas, on a seamlessly neverending loop of peaceful pads and very addicting dreamy tones. this very special limited release comes in a unusual but deliciously collectible transparent yellow 10” vinyl with a remarkable and equally sinister painting by new york-based artist emily marchesiello, art director and co-founder of the galerie project. she specializes in fantasy animal portraiture art, via ink, water color and oil paint. project london

yaleesa hall has released solo tracks and remixes on the will & ink label before now, and here returns with four new cuts on the perrin ep. the unknown producer turned plenty of heads with its first full outing, and the stripped back but succulent sounds on offer here will surely do the same again. rubber kicks rolling beneath little flecks of static and raw metal texture. wonky synth lines riding up and down. this is expertly hypnotic, over sized and cavernous techno that will suck you in, sweep you up and trap you in a perfect trance.

nice price deal !!! cymawax explores the far reaches of our sonic galaxy with its next 12 inch only release, an exciting seven song set from evocative uruguayan-norwegian vocalist camilla luna. camilla is known as one half of luna & bazis on wahwah45s, with producer friend bhlb, and as vocalist for trulz & robins releases on eskimo and dance disorder’s ”metallic italic“ (bpitch control). her years of improvising vocals with musicians and djs at renowned oslo clubs like blaa, jeager, and the villa have given camilla a knack for accompanying electronic rhythms with haunting, tuneful melodies. for the open up ep, camilla joins producer bhlb for soulful and raw vocals recorded in one take over futuristic, bass-heavy, and delightfully offbeat tracks. the styles and tempos vary wildly, but the sound throughout is unified in a deceptively organic ex machina woman-meets-machine vibe. in the title cut, the almost tribal percussion summons exotic, benevolent spirits when combined with camilla’s temptatious crooning. the twisted r&b of ”wut r u gwonna do“ could almost be a secret collaboration with the likes of flying lotus. and ”f.o.c.- transmits a slightly intimidating techno stomp that would make all heads on the dance floor turn towards the dj and immediately take notice. these are just a few of the otherworldly audio nuggets found within the open up ep … there are more treasures to unveil. excavate soulfully.

title track universe is covered by warm & drive-bass, percussion synths and a wavy mainlead that hijacks the mind to deeper places. still waters run deep as explorazione starts with strict but area-wide beats and turns into an interaction of arpeggiated synths and powerful bass. followed by the last track passage feat. afterwards-, whose sweet reverb-heavy vocals glide through the bassment , the ep constantly keeps up the danceable tech- house elements.definitely a flowing continuity of quality sounds.
