ricardo jefferson is a producer and dj based in manchester, england. the four tracks on this ep demonstrate a distinctive style. the roots of his sound are in funk, disco, space rock, prog rock, but he has melded them into a sound that is more than just the sum of these elements. this is funky, bass-heavy, trippy techno for the dance floor. a1 a brutal truth. this is a big tune that builds relentlessly. the track has an inclusive, celebrational, feel which simply invites everyone to lose it on the dance floor. 124bpm. a2 persons unknown. this tune doesn t have the relentless build of a brutal truth. instead, this is a tune to drop when everyone on the dancefloor is in the zone and locked into the groove. a finely crafted trip created with multiple delays skittering around the sound field, anchored by the funky bass heavy groove. 123 bpm. b1 the egg part one. a track employing a tight kick drum of differing weights to propel the groove, overlayed with a circular keyboard motif. on the off-beat, add the processed sound of someone hitting a metal sheet, and viola! - one aggressively funky dance floor bomb! 123 bpm. b2 god of the machine. this track has a simple 4x4 kick and handclap pattern pinning down a delicious oscillating bass line, under a classic descending four chord circular chord progression. off kilter ride cymbals give the track its backbone, and fluidity. ricocheting handclap delays add dimension. sly stone would be proud of this groove. now get on the dance floor and strut your stuff! 119 bpm. the cover shows a still image from the music video a brutal truth directed by ricardo jefferson and laura lee.

new ep from detroit techno and graphics legend alan oldham.
following up the more experimental >johnny gambit 01: the prodigal son< graphic novel/soundtrack (pure18lp), alan d. oldham a.k.a. dj t-1000 gets back to basics with the >blaster ep<, phase two of the pure sonik records restart.
>blaster< kicks off the proceedings. a dirty, tracky, and bitcrushed statement of intent, >blaster< is a 130 bpm love letter to all the hard techno fans in germany and spain who have kept the faith and supported dj t-1000s international dates all these years, and the definitive statement that pure sonik records is back!
on the b-side, oldham goes electro with >i rock shit everyday<, a dark, dirty, detroit electro-groove inspired by one of his all-time favorite detroit electro acts, ultradyne. the ep closer, the lo-fi >machines<, is the sound of your laptop, tv, and coffee maker conspiring against you in dial-up modem code. what happens when your microwave starts thinking it can cook better than you? you better watch out...

nice price deal !!! mixes by ian carey, mync, tv rock and taylor square!

a temporary sabbatical from gigs was taken and the band wrote material for where were you when it happened in new orleans midtown district, where their rawboned compositions resembled the katrina-pummeled surroundings. with their girlfriends with them in as close to a stableenvironment as they d been in months, they were able to tap a darker, more personal side in songs like as noise, and hunt you down, with its mournful, organ drenched air belying monotonixs typical good time charlie posturing, while fulfilling the albums need for a climactic, balladic moment. where were you when it happened? finds monotonix visiting a greater diversity of places within their sound while still retaining their minimal appeal. mostly though, where were you when it happened works up a sweat with raw rock and roll, acid guitar licks and riffs, screaming choruses and, in general, the wildness of monotonix in a way that makes for repeated album listening (and pummelling). where most bands refine their production sound as they go forward, monotonix have reverse refined themselves, playing dirtier and more energetic to capture the lightning they are known for.

motorcitysoul are frankfurt veterans and deep house pioneers matthias vogt and christian rindermann (aka c-rock). vivid follows various successful releases (kazan and space katzle) on aus music, and their first debut studio album >technique< on simple. hailing from germanys own >motor city<, the pair have developed a reputation for creating soulful yet truely futuristic deep house that has a signature sound all of its own. >vivid< is trademark motorcitysoul û resonant evolving chord sequences, beautifully arranged organic percussion and >wild pitch< fx and loops combine to devastating effect. fellow frankfurter roman flugel gives the manheim house sound a damn good run for its money with a tight, loopy groove that locks you from the off. all kinds of detail and sound flourishes pop in once, never to be heard again, keeping the listener on their toesà.the package is completed with a percussion heavy dub that threatens to steal the show. roman flugel needs little introduction. one half of alter ego and one of the collective responsible for legendary labels playhouse and klang and not forgetting one of the finest clubs in the worldàrobert jonson

ironic? no, it’s dead serious: sally shapiro keeps on dreaming of barbie and ken. sometimes good things come to those who wait, as is the case with sally shapiro. one shouldn’t really imagine the bashful swede from göteborg, who never performs live, setting a new trend for turning down lucrative offers. and the thought that she is working on something hip, is most likely even a little eerie for her. after all, she s just into something, which she’s been doing since her childhood in the 1980s — singing songs in the style of her idol sandra (”maria magdalena“). if she hadn’t met her companion johan agebjörn, who despite his musical socialization with techno in the 1990s has been deep into italo disco for the past few years and is a collector of zyx records, sally’s passion for synthi songs and fairy-like female vocals would have remained private. however, johan was screwing together some italo-style songs when he asked sally (whose voice he’d only heard from a previous christmas party karaoke) if she would improvise on his soft keyboard tunes, their collaboration was a done deal.
subsequent to their first releases on the labels diskokaine and permanent vacation, sally shapiro suddenly found herself in the midst of the ultra-hip neo/italo-disco movement, which is especially big in scandinavia. why of all things on the northern peninsula, where one traditionally listens to black metal and indie rock played with legs spread apart, the peculiar, yet sunny disco music became such an export hit, stays one of the mysteries of the pop business. it’s a fact, though, that next to internationally celebrated norwegian neodisco-heroes lindström, prins thomas and todd terje, the lovely sally has become the scandinavian disco-act in the mean time.

tc turns his hand to evil 9s homage to sci-fi ghoulfest, they live. whilst maintaining the originals eerie atmosphere, tc has certainly infused the true drum and bass treatment. techy vocal hooks give way to a pulsing bassline, perfectly suited to a chase scene from a horror flick. on the flip side, tc gives freelands under control a good re-lick here: with a catchy guitar riff, stomping beats, soaring synths and some heavy bassline action, this is smashing stuff. featuring a live band and stunning vocals, courtesy of kurt baumann, the under control remix is an uplifting, euphoric and rock-infused rollercoaster of a ride.

since 2002, dj and producer kook and brazilian singer roxxy bione are now a duo. without a doubt, they are typical dirty and danceable berlin electro and rock n roll. important to them: no run of the mill concert atmosphere. they prefer people to dance and freak out, not just swaying to the music. kook feat. roxxy bione don t hide behind a laptop, but submit microphone stands and stage floor to grueling tests. the musics charm is a result of glamorous pop, rockin electro sounds and groovy dance – often crowned with driving singing. >phantom hitchhiker< is the first evidence of this danceable dangerous romance called kook & roxxy.

the new, first time ever on vinyl 2lp reissue of a long way around to a shortcut is somehow a greatest hits of the golden not quite decade of sic alps. well, not quite golden, either. can gold be tarnished? can it be done on purpose? if so, sic alps are artisans of the highest order - for their music is the bright, surging sound of ye olde rock & roll radio (and the garages that tuned in) heard through air darkened with specks of nameless obstruction. in and amongst their ingrown sounds, sic alps take on classic tunes from strapping field hands, throbbing gristle and the zipps on a long way around to a shortcut. it is to their credit that they completely absorb their estimated predecessors and create the only sound left to them: the sound of the sic alps. a long way around to a shortcut was issued as a cd in 2008. it collected songs that were first issued throughout the epic years of 2006 and 2007 on two 12inch eps, three 7inch singles and a cassette, plus a song from a compilation cd r and a song exclusive to this compilation. the records were originally given titles like united, strawberry guillotine, semi streets, hip hop sweepers vol 1, teenage alps, and the soft tour in rough form, but all these original releases are long gone.

nice price deal !!! limited white label 4 track ep featuring some dope remixes from ruckus roboticus that never appeared on vinyl. until now. his dancefloor friendly remixes of bloc partys >hunting for witches<, pase rocks >so f*cking disco<, kanye wests >love lockdown< and lmfaos >i m in miami bitch<. the bloc party mix is perfect for the electro heads (think dfa or gomma), while his kanye remix might be the best house remix of that track done yet and his pase rock remix is a fidget house anthem in the making. get this!

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.

computor rockers return after the worldwide hit that was computor interface (brk49) with another showcase of exactly how electro should be put together. all too often retro can mean dull and uninspired (or just lame plagiarism), but anyone who has been following ed dmxs career over the last several years will know that really isnt the way he plays the game. instead he understands the value of songs and melody... the beats are fresh, without a doubt, but it will usually be the tune or the lyrics that will hook you into a dmx production, the elements that turn just another electro track into something unique and valuable. and so it proves here, from the classic computor shock (which helpfully comes in vocal and instrumental versions for those who just cant do the voice thing) to the melodic and hooky electro-funk of how we used to rock and distributed processing. stunning as always!
