following a string of remixes throughout 2016, and one of her busiest summers on the road, cassy is rounding off the year on a high. enter ‘kwench records’, a collaborative imprint she has created to represent honest and upfront house music. the remit is simple, on each release two or more artists will collaborate on ep original material, with a different artist joining the package on remix duty. they must not be afraid to experiment, nor do what comes naturally to them. and above all, trust in themselves and their instincts. this is something cassy has proudly learned to master over her dj career, and she now wishes to put out records in a creative space that encourages this approach. for the first release, cassy has called in one of her favourite house music producers, canada based demuir, to collaborate with her. demuir’s ‘derrick does disco’ ep which came out on great lakes audio in 2016 was a favorite in cassy’s sets throughout that year, even making it onto her mixmag presents cd ‘let’s talk about donna’, which accompanied her cover in june. there are three original cuts on the package, and as a special treat for the first release, cassy is holding back the incredible remix package until later this year.

coming hot off his rather expansive cognitive dissonance 2x12inch for love notes, and also an ep for axetrax, tape_hiss herein continues his impressive run. on jacob s ladder, the artist pushes his emotionally wrought sound over cooking percussion and bubbling acid undertones. maspeth ave is quite honestly the nastiest bassline we have heard on a deep house track in some time, sure to cause spontaneous bass face in the listener. life as an echo uses soaring chords and synths to prove its point, and forests of my mind finishes the ep off with a pitch bending chord that pushes the track right along. yet another extremely cohesive, emotionally charged effort from this artist.

some might say jordan fields is one of the most criminally underappreciated figures to rise out of chicago in the late 90s, not for people who know what s what though. after a career spanning more than 20 years he has established himself as one of the key figures of the underground. coming out of where everything started, chicago, jordan released records on a handful of key labels like catalyst, track mode, som underground, mood groove, maffia. he did not stop there and today he is still releasing bangers having never lost that magic touch that has kept him firmly grounded on the purest form of the underground, and that, after more than 20 years is pretty much unheard of. when we first contacted jordan we wanted to go back to where it all started, we wanted to be transported to late 90s chicago, to a time where it was all about the dance floor, when tracks meant something more than songs, when purely club-oriented music was the purest form of the underground. to be honest we were not expecting to get exactly what we wanted straight away, he immediately sent us a collection of tools straight out of dat tapes he had, going all the way back to the 90s and early 2000s, so yeah to say that we are excited with this release would be a huge understatement. this is a collection of tools meant for the dancefloor, not reminiscent of some gone by era, these are the real deal, made by a true master, 20 years ago, for the future.

five years after the illustrious paranormal soul lp, techno derelict danny wolfers aka legowelt returns on clone with -legendary freaks in the trash of time-. a vivid collection of twelve genre-defying tracks: from late-night hermit house to memphis rap influenced slowjam electro, from amiga 1200 technorave to cosmic spaceweed trance, including the whole universe in between. all blended together in a mix of subdued sensuality and psychedelic splendour, this album is flavoured with legowelt s typical crunchy lo-fi sampler and synthesizer aesthetic. wolfers own hand-drawn sleeve artwork illustrates the album s mood without the need for much further promotional blurb... colourful stories embodying societal malaise and its dwellers - yet with a dash of aspiration. music for misfits, witches, dreamers, cyberpunks, outsiders, geeks, and freaks. legowelt s people.

for gregory porter, the influence of nat king cole on his life and music runs deep, a through-line that reaches back into some of his earliest childhood memories, and culminates in the release of the two-time grammy-winning vocalist’s stunning fifth studio album nat king cole & me, a heartfelt tribute to the legendary singer, pianist, and capitol recording artist. “he was one of a kind. he left such great music – such beautiful things to listen to that you can’t help but be influenced by that extraordinary timbre, style, and ultimate cool,” porter enthuses.

everything is sound in the material world. you and me, we are vibrations sampling, strife and spirituality three notions that form the basics of eduardos lifestyle. de la calle is back on forbidden colours, again flaunting his connection with el_txef_a. the release consists of three original cuts. on the a side at 45 rpm is the energy and freneticism of hobsons choice : because a person may refuse to accept what is offered, the two options are taking it or taking nothing on the b side, the sublime paradox of choice leads with a strange kick loop and astral synthesizers followed by transportation forecasting, where a classic 4x4 kick is paired with analog recordings to depict a more colorful setting. my love wears forbidden colours my life believes my love wears forbidden colours my life believes in you once again

soundway records presents the debut solo album from the ever-energetic diron animal, lead singer of the band throes + the shine.
born and raised in the ghettos of cazenga in the angolan capital of luanda, the portugal-based artist is known for his incredible stage presence and unique fashion sense. influenced by traditional african music, diron brings modern electronic production and multilingual vocals to his album, which explores the realities of growing up in harsh conditions. the impact of such a life on himself and his local community is thematically apparent: pessimism, greed, and ambition feature - and yet the overarching message is that of opportunity, hope and channelling one’s struggles into creativity.
spell-binding rhythms, bass hooks and original lyrics abound, spanning portuguese, kimbundu and english.

the new album from p!nk as double vinyl in gatefold sleeve.

1800haightstreet finally break a years hiatus in the caves of vancouver to come roaring back onto lobster theremin with a bumper album of long-awaited otherworldly techno experiments.
with that classic, depth-charged warehouse sound blending the heavier side of detroit techno with a shot of basic channel atmospherics and a rickety stepped uk edge, this is a real time-stamp set into stone. a spectral rotation through the deeper sides of 4/4 with each slice coated in a dazzling array of synth programming, heavily effected interstellar rhythms and processing that goes from scorched & crusted to clean and undulating as each side is flipped.
a refined and considered document spanning the many elements of techno that sees thumping deepness (vanisher, super intelligent, psychic) collide with crunchy, straight-down-the-line stompers (the ram, endless, razor, diagonal iris), blistering heaviness (flood, intuitionist) and galaxian dub techno (past life memory).
overall, a truly inspiring body of modern techno from one of the finest and most standout new artists in canadian electronic music.

12 track album from various artists released by dub store records.

by now, the world is familiar with the extensive works of monsieur dimitri from paris. his prowess as a globetrotting dj and taste-maker for over 20+ years, his reputation for the finer things in life, his sartorial style and of course most importantly his infamous remixes and disco edits. isn’t it odd that until now, there hasn’t been an official home for the man’s stellar reworks? it just doesn’t make any sense. this is exactly the reason that he has decided to set up this brand new venture - le edits records. naturally, a high standard of quality is present with all le edits releases across the board - from sourcing 100% virgin vinyl used for pressing to the mastering through tape, to the beautifully crafted and designed tip-on sleeves that were popular with record companies in the 1960’s and 1970’s, to the wonderfully imagined graphic design that adorns said sleeves - dimitri has overseen every aspect of this, his first label.
what about the music? we hear you ask? well, simply put, only the finest disco reworks are to be released on le edits. fans will be treated to dim’s special versions of classics and rarer than rare tracks, all lovingly re-touched and mixed from the reels and master tapes each time, fully sanctioned and created in conjunction with the artists, rights holders and above board distribution. 100% official and 100% essential.

deep house doesn t get deeper than deep explorer, dubbyman s evergreen label transmitting out of spain. on this latest 12inch, allstarr motomusic makes a welcome return after the first volume of beauty & simplicty back in 2015. this time they re working in collaboration with vocalist sarignia bonfa and the results are stunning. burning (in my soul) is a gorgeous, dubbed out slice of deep house with a true midwest flavour, while el sonido deepex takes things into even more sultry territory. there s also space for downtempo reflection on space of life, but also watch out for the deadly remix of the whole hood in my house- by cvo.

born in a remote log cabin deep in the scottish highlands, eventual reality, the debut album from the james l’estraunge orchestra melds jazz and electronic music sensibilities with a huge helping of heart and soul. in 2014 seasoned producer and musician ricky reid and his partner retreated from the city to embark upon a new life, in his own words “away from the constant, incoherent noise of the world”. as he set up his studio, the clean air and spectacular surroundings began to provoke musical inspiration like never before. then, like a scene from ‘field of dreams’, a series of talented musicians from his former life visited the cabin for a series of late night jamming and recording sessions, leaving behind them hidden treasures to be discovered and lovingly pieced together by ricky over the following months. with nostalgia so much a part of the album’s creation, the james l’estraunge orchestra can’t help but appear somewhat spectral, after all they are truly the band that never was.

limited to 300 copies! following his recent releases on tartelet records and oye, uffe kicks off the nos classics label with a record consisting of three mutated disco tracks that marks the start of his own new copenhagen-based label. run together with fellow tartelet affiliates vktr and jeppe wolmer (of vivian international) the first records a-side is a dubbed out percussive testament to the darkest and saddest times of uffe s life. a2 is a melodic and dreamy homage to one certain apartement located on the lijnbaangracht in the jordaan area in amsterdam. on the top floor of this worn down old house there was light to be found in these dark times. on the flip-side tings gets trippy. the title track finds uffe deeply intertwined in an occult-like bass-heavy ritual. an attempt to escape reality and cure the scandinavian misanthropy and the grey weather it comes with. a twelve minute voodoo disco tool perfectly crafted for a dancefloor which most probably does not exist.

for their 12th label anniversary, jazz & milk have decided to launch a new series called “twelve inch jams” in order to celebrate vinyl culture and the legendary 12&#8243,,, format! jams002 sounds the bell for the second round of the series including a 10 years re-issue of the classic sam irl cut “you don’t feel enough”. originally released as a b1 tune on his “african dance ep” debut on pulver records in 2007, this jazzy house gem found its way into the record bags of many influential djs over the years. from session victim, glenn astro, max graef to hodini… the record never disappeared in club sets but certainly from discogs a good while ago. so it was about time to give the tune a second life and finally press it on the format it deserves - a whole 12&#8243,,, side. the german production duo session victim are well-known fans of the track describing it as their secret weapon playing it in quite many dj sets for years, including their 2015 appearance for mixmag’s dj lab. hence, it is a great pleasure that session victim contributed a remix to the new release. their absolutely elegant and groove-driven version with a charming 90’s touch to it makes a brillant counterpart to the original with its jazzy piano-, drum- and double bass samples leading to an epic synth break that regularly causes ecstatic moments on the dancefloor.

following on from the ability ii pressure re-release, major problems and compassion cuts present another in-house favourite from their vaults: the sublime garage/rnb earworm dont tell me (how love should feel) by 2-bmw. a tony humphries/zanzibar favourite, the sole release on life of luxury in 1990 was new jersey producer larry p rauson’s first cut, and never saw a full release. it’s presented with three remarkable dubs from the mysterious man in bed, two of which in turn are flipped by compassion crew and, completing the circle, by larry himself. full colour cover with matt finish. restored and mastered by thomas p heckmann at trope. cut by andreas kauffelt at schnittstelle. artwork by mel keane. larry on dont tell me: tony played the song at zanzibar (on a) saturday night. that sunday morning my phone was blowing up... that weekend gave me the moment of my career. i was an engineer at the local cable company. listening to tony humphries on the radio, not expecting it, tony humphries played my record on his show... i did not last much longer at that job.

mit seiner gabe zum songwriting sprengt er die grenzen von r&b, pop und soul, seine texte präsentieren einen faszinierenden blick auf die welt – kaum verwunderlich, dass rationale ein gefragter mann ist. rag’n’bone man (»wolves«, »guilty« und »life in her yet«), katy perry (»act my age«) und nause (»dynamite«) zählten bereits auf sein talent, dazu wurde ihm prominente unterstützung von kollegen zuteil, u. a. von ellie goulding, die seinen track »tethered« regelmäßig covert, und bastille, die rationale einluden, sie auf ihrer europatour zu begleiten.
nun präsentiert rationale seine eigene künstlerische vision mit seinem selbstbetitelten debütalbum. neben einer fülle von neuem material enthält es ausgewählte highlights seiner bisherigen karriere – darunter das 14 millionen mal gestreamte »fast lane«, die überragende live-hymne »deliverance« und das emotionale intensive »prodigal son«.
der großteil des albums wurde von rationale produziert, der kanadische producer stint (u. a. gallant, nao) arbeitete an »tumbling down«.

following up right after its first vinyl release, todh teri returns with volume 2. todh teri’s retrospective continues to reimagine the golden era of indian cinema. sampadan chaar revisits a bollywood ballad with a light breeze of acid thrown on. next up, a homage to a legendary indian producer, with a retouch to his classic 1980’s tune. the final edit on the ep takes on a sensuous super hit from a pakistani-born disco queen. giving it a little soul, and a lot of groove. making this a significant release that proves the artist will continue to produce top notch reworks. once again todh teri recreates memories of the legacy indian music directors & singers left behind. a tribute that’s fresh & definitive. in the past, todh teri has brought this style of music to berlin’s well known night life like voll schoen & wilde renate. the act debuted a very special live set at wilde renate

for his third release, vertv returns by presenting the first ep of the new icône serie that focus on showcasing local talents and friends from the label s circle, the songs are put together in order to create a coherent yet versatile dj friendly eps that can be as much appreciated as a whole than separately.built as a crescendo, icône 1 is a great summary of the label interests from jazz (rafiki s la fourche), urban melancolia (monomite s city life), deep funkyness (label s cofounder neue grafik & lieu saint are making their first appearance on vertv here with moutons electriques and sale paradis) to spontaneous straighter-to-the-face lo-fiesque house killers (mad rey s travail de porc). icone #1 is a great panomara of what you could expect from the people from vertv.

xixa balance ep (apa002) abstract places audio elusive producer xixa delivers the second abstract places audio release. balance is a three-track ep where the co-founder of the label packs a solid techno sound drowned in complex and evolving atmospheres. as first label’s release (clip - gebre, 2016), this is not a 100% club record, we can hear ambient and idm influences, but a1 and b1 are perfect tracks to keep a techno set full of rhythm and tension, and will get its place on any dj record bag. a1 balance is built around a distorted but controlled techno beat. patiently, a wide palette of drones and other-worldly artefacts are growing next to carefully crafted percussive sounds. 1984 opens the b side of the 12”, with a 4 to the floor overdriven bass drum and a reverse reverb announcing its main synth sequence, accompanied by organic hi-hats and clap sounds. a collection of ethereal drones and noises is also used, giving the track a sense of cohesion and gluing its different parts. life inside a snow ball is xixa s personal take on ambient. some of the drones and artefacts from a1 are now mixed with new quasi- harmonic emotional textures and subtle noises emerging from a deep unknown space and forming a complete new sonic experience. balance ep is a very solid second release by abstract places audio that confirms the label sound and philosophy.

moon boots aka peter dougherty veröffentlicht sein erstes album für anjunadeep. ursprünglich aus brooklyn stammend, machte er seine ersten schritte zunächst in chicago, inspiriert durch legenden wie derrick carter und frankie knuckles, auf dem label french express. prominente unterstützung fand er durch bbc radio 1s annie mac und kcrws jason bentley, so dass er schnell eine internationale fangemeinde etablieren konnte. sein durchbruch gelang auf anjunadeep mit dem track -red sky-, der von tensnake, skream, claude vonstroke, tiga und vielen anderen gespielt wurde. auf seinem debütalbum -first landing- zeigt er die ganze bandbreite seines könnens und liefert von klassischem us-house mit funk- und soul-einflüssen über electronica, sonnigen r&b bis hin zu launischen dancefloor-tracks eine übergangslos runde mischung ab. gastbeiträge stammen von fiora, lulu james, janelle kroll, king kona, nic hanson und black gatsby.

decadent yet depraved, the debut album by belief defect, finds shelter and complicity in raster as home and label. familiar with the underground music scene and how its skeptical nature can also be an obstacle to overcome, belief defect abandon any claim or credit in an attempt to transcend the limits authorship imposes, avoid the boundaries or expectations earned or self imposed and find the clearest, most direct path to their music for themselves and the listener. at the core of the album is the music that inspired them, the conclusion of countless recordings listened to in their formative years that ultimately result in a life-long devotion to electronic music: from dance floor to primal anger and self-annihilating noise, to transcendental, ambient escapism and intense self-reflexive sonic layering. the result is a soundtrack for this apocalyptic time, an uncompromising reflection on the state of mankind and its uncertain future underscored by a sense of religious and secular demise referenced in track titles, samples, and soundscapes scattered throughout the album. yet, more than a political statement decadent yet depraved is an introspective journey, turning each listener into a spiritual soul-seeker staring into the abyss, reaching for some kind of cathartic truthfulness.

salvation is found by identifying thesis and antithesis of a logically conceived duality as a receptive polarity which is then synthesized and expressed on a higher level. thereby practicing what is preached is the all-embracing love in the presence of the creator. the purest original state pre-dating the judgmental so called >fall of man< in unity with life itself is the principle of holiness and the root of inner peace. glory to g-d!

ziúr is one of the most exciting producers to come out of the fringes of berlin club music in the last few years. a new generation is breaking out of the techno mould and creating in a spirit of freedom and experimentation, taking seemingly incompatible influences and balancing them into a new and exciting sound. ziúr is also the founder and resident dj of boo-hoo, a night championing diverse lineups, reflecting its creative audience, bringing through the cream of the experimental dance underground. planet mu are proud to release ziúr’s debut album “u feel anything?” in collaboration with objects limited, a label run by lara rix-martin which releases music by women and non-binary people.

this vibration is cast into new dimensions. liberating eros, it circles the globe, backwards and forwards, flowing to and through us. it is said the artist has a gift— suited for the erotic life of property.
on eros in arabia, richard horowitz channels this vibration and bends bandit sounds by pairing the ancient ney cane flute with the prophet-5 synthesizer. interspersed with other instruments and ideas, like echo delayed moroccan drumming and self-made magic, these elements deal in duality like the ever-shifting characteristics of the composer: the hollywood horowitz who scores films like the sheltering sky and any given sunday, and the morocco horowitz who founded the gnaoua festival in mogador, attended by 500.000 people every year.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

holy smokes batman! brand new label straight outta mcr here as esteemed clubnight house of wax launches a new, vinyl only imprint entitled jupiter s melody. what a coup for this debut release - the drop are a london based, 9-piece reggae band operating since 2009 and with a soundsystem informed mentality. fitting then that soundsystem operative, ukg legend and accalaimed bass music progressor djrum is enlisted on remix duties to take these uk reggae skankers into the club for some grooving 2-step business. felix manuel has a storied history across uk dance music, most notably through releases on the iconic 2nd drop records and a much lauded resident advisor mix. -looking to the sky- is that festival burner you wish you d have packed for the summer just gone. gliding in on waves of undulating bass, punctuated by a typical but none less arresting 2-step beat, the rastaman vox from the drop fit so well you won t actually believe it s a remix! deep, emotive and beautifully poised, its retroist in many ways but this only adds to the warm and welcoming nature of the track. the flip is more introspective, and in someways melancholic, but with a massively uplifted message. again, taken from a completely different og piece (check youtube for the drop s original vid), the vocal sits perfectly in another crisp and frenetic take on the ukg beat. this side builds slowly, with a defined song structure and lush musicality, never quite climaxing but simmering gently with a mindful glow. appearing out of nowhere and instantly having us climbing over each other to see what was playing, we expect this to be a big smash here in manchester over the coming months. if you ve felt something missing in your life since mj cole, zed bias and todd edwards last released summat, then you could do much worse than adding this to your collection! limited copies so get those orders in quick folks...

astrophonica welcomes lewis james to the fold with the shapeshifter ep. a professional sound designer and life long musician, london-based lewis james first appeared on the label via the gradients compilation in early 2017. with this ep he celebrates his love of jungle and drum & bass across four tracks that combine analogue and digital processes to create what he calls, -a spaced out identity, somewhere between science fiction and the dancefloor.-

the second release from ftp explores the sweet spot between detroit ghetto-tech, juke, and jungle. the opening track, “phonky no. 69,” is designed for maximum level booty dropping effect. it starts with a raunchy vocal hook over a booming electro beat, before unleashing nasty breaks, at which point the dance floor is guaranteed to pop off. handle with care when deploying this bomb, the first release from dj dr-660. the second track on the a side paces upward and into juke territory. it fills up the sonic space with lush pads and crisp jungle breaks, before breaking down to thick rhodes chords, in eternal rashad fashion. the b side opens with a track from the mysterious newcomer shadow moses, who teases with some euphoric pads, before launching a massive lardossian missile that heads straight for the booty. the compilation closes with a electro beat executed with surgical precision and care, filled with hypnotic percussive elements and a life-affirming baseline. it was lovingly distilled and synthesized in frankfurt directly from the detroit source.
