nice price deal !!! meridian is a perfect example of dj 3000s evolution as a producer. the mark of a good producer is to never stop growing, once you do, you are condemned to making the same record over and over again and hoping no one notices. this record is the perfect marriage between the percussive staples of the motech sound, and a new lighter exploration of sound elements by dj 3000. >meridian< dares you to sit still while listening to it, or to stand on the wall if you are near a dance floor. its ability to make you dance as well as captivating your ear if you are sitting and listening illustrates the dynamic flexibility of the motech sound.

fittingly, chanes’ debut lp comes full circle, finishing the album back in the place it all started and releasing it with long-time supporter house shoes and street corner music.

timmy ps latest outing on dessous recordings continues the long list of illustrious labels that have been home to his house vision. now based in london, timmy has a string of emphatic releases under his belt, not least on influential imprints such as local talk, extended play, dirt crew and madtech. with safety first, timmys playful approach to the deeper side of house shines though. the title track mixes crisp, crunchy drums with warm, soft pads and a bubbling bass line - a deep rolling cut with plenty of punch for the floor. the fantastically named grim fandango is a little tougher, with the snares and claps snapping tightly over a taut, un-resistible vibe. timmys balance of dynamics is masterful, each element perfectly complimenting each other to create a tour de force over 8 minutes. bosh is similarly crafted - the original echoing classic 90s house but feeling completely fresh for 2016, while james dexters remix is a robust, deep roller. this is house music made with joy and passion.

a trailblazing radio 1 show, unparalleled club-nights and a promising label, the 1-800 dinosaur crew are undoubtedly a focal point for all tastemakers alike. with a string of understated 12” releases, 1-800 dinosaur are now set to unveil their first full-length release. anchored by trim’s polarising narrative, ‘1-800 dinosaur presents trim’ is a collaborative endeavour featuring a slew of 1-800 members and affiliates, including: happa, dan foat, airhead, james blake, klaus boothroyd and bullion. outspoken and sharp, trim’s introspectively sinister delivery weaves hypnotically between the 1-800 crews’ varying soundscapes. emerging yorkshire producer happa - who’s stock continues to rise with each release – puts forward a tribal-like march on ‘before i lied’, with trim eerily advising to “be careful who you laugh amongst”. already in circulation, the videogame like progression of ‘rpg’ seeps with blake’s signature off-kilter soul, feeding the subversive nature that trim revels in.

the third release from new imprint dama dama, is another offering from label co-founder pedestrian, following the label’s well-received debut ep - ‘circadian rhythms’ . ‘pick your shots clean’ is a track inspired by this spring’s european dama dama label launch tour, which saw founding members pedestrian & maribou state take to the road, curating bespoke parties with back to back all night dj sets. as ever, the music itself is hard to categorise, but we would say that it sits somewhere between a rugged 90’s chemical brothers track and a 70’s arabian psych-rock record. the flipside - ‘airs & graces’ - serves as a counter-balance (a kind of yang to the ying of the a-side), that picks up where circadian rhythms left off, taking the listener off on a melodic 5-minute trip. currently gearing up to release a new signing in the dama dama camp, the team also have their sights set on the curation of festival stages, more intriguing night endeavors and a new mixtape series, all set for delivery over the coming months. pedestrian now with his sights firmly set on writing his debut lp, will be found at a number of festivals over the summer.

john frusciantes foregrow doesnt sound like any acid test record, or any record, thats come before it. after the unlikely alliance between the los angeles label and the iconoclastic venice, ca musician on trickfinger, all bets are off. this one’s truly a passage through night. foregrow is a lurching, lysergic beauty which offers glimpses of his platinum pop instincts, but only behind the veil of true experimentalism.

>private.< is the debut album from rebekka & fox, a collaborative project by the singer andsongwriter rebekka brunow and dj and producer hannu nieminen. the finished record is a balanced affair between modern electronic club sounds and ethereal wistful pop. hannus visions meet rebekkas melodies and lyrics in an effortlessly natural way. despite the multitude of ideas, influences and genres, the result is solid and intriguing. the production techniques are refined, but they never suppress the unfiltered raw emotion. >private.< is a moving album in all senses of the word.

oddball space disco tracks compiled from library tracks composed between 1975 and 1978. big tip!! from the early 70s to the mid-80s, this self-taught musician composed about twenty albums of production and library music with generic cover art and titles (out of the way, magical ring, keys of the future, pulsations, more and more, etc.) that evoke interstellar travel. these experimental discs, made with love, humility and rudimentary means, had no ambition other than to accompany other peoples images. by exhuming these obscurities from the dustbin of history, born bad have decided otherwise. archaeologists with an agenda, they seek to give jean pierre decerf the renown he deserves: that of an innovator whose rhythmic, synthetic compositions inspired the harbingers of the french touch (air comes to mind), not to mention some east coast rappers.

peter michael hamel emerged from the 70s krautrock scene dreaming of “the blue flower growing between the milestones on the road to a future world-music”. a truly visionary artist who worked and studied with john cage, morton feldman and terry riley, his 1980 colours of time lp - an epic, sprawling, 22-minute saga - was hailed by the guardian’s rob fitzpatrick as “an absolute masterpiece of skull-bursting, synth-led ambient minimalism”. thirty six years on, astral industries reinterpret hamel s original vision with remixes from two contemporary heavyweights - wolfgang voigt and rod modell (aka deepchord). each expansive interpretation invites you to step outside of reality and into an alternative imagination of hamel s future world, spiralling into the colours and slowly out of time itself. original artwork by theo ellsworth and a massive thanks to peter michael hamel & eckart rahn.

the excellent field label embarks on a new mini trilogy of eps that will -present a magical journey through modern-day trance.- first up in the series is artefakt with their three track effort the final theory. dutch producers robin koek and nick lapien make up artefakt, and between them they excel at moody voodoo music on labels like delsin. they open this latest ep with the title track, a deep, spacious house roller with subtle pads and gentle acid that perform slow motion acrobatics for nearly ten minutes. it is suspensory, dreamy music that works on the head as well as the heel. moving horizon is then less doleful and introspective but just as deep, with sweeping pads add a sense of scale, busy drums bring the dynamism and icy percussive sounds adding a sense of urgency. last but not least, solaris is a fatter, more physical groove with claps and gloopy bass, acid flashes and trancey pads all fleshing out a lush and deep electro workout. this is heavenly stuff that cannot fail to get inside your head and heart.

tim green is back with another brace of high impact club tunes of the sort that have made him one of the most in demand producers of the day. whether serving up rolling techno treats for cocoon, essential mixes for the body language series on get physical or laying down compelling club sets in the dj booth, brit tim green is unstoppable right now. here he steps up to the get weird imprint with two more tantalising cuts that show just how broad and brilliant an artist he is. stirring opener ‘for a memory’ is eleven minutes of wordless and intoxicating female vocals, slick rubbery drums and plunging bass. the overall effect is hypnotic, rolling and perfectly groovy, and it will no doubt have whole dancefloors locked under its spell. some little melodic explosions, sweeping filters and luscious pads all help add a real air of grace to proceedings that mark it out as another classic from green. ‘for a distant memory’ is a subtle but noteworthy reworking of the same cut. in this one, the drums are less direct and more stripped back, there is a focus on the angelic, glowing pads and on spine tingling slices of synth that are reflective and emotive as they drop in and out. it is a perfectly trance inducing, heart warming cut that the likes of lee burridge at his all day i dream parties, or various djs playing on a sun kissed terrace around the globe, will all lap right up. these are two more essential tracks from the ever on point tim green.

the second of two zentrum spinoffs is with us! as with the first, it comes loaded with four remixes. octo octa, vito & druzzi, cooper saver and turbotito, and lemonade all handed in top-notch reimaginings of tracks off jacques renault s debut lp, which came out just under a year ago, and they all somehow manage to be unique unto themselves while also sublimely bleeding into one another. octo octas rendering of mi casa samba serves as a propulsive beginning thats as dark and druggy as it is sharp and focused. vito & druzzis take on faith runs in a similar vein, but in a more stripped-back, drawn-out, and patient sort of way, it is nearly ten minutes long, so this is perhaps not a surprise. the b s remixes are brighter, sunnier, though that s not to say they re not bold. cooper saver and turbotito s redo of words has a certain funky swing to it that, paired with spacey synths and balearic bells and whistles, makes it ideal daytime disco fodder. the lemonade boys close the ep with their vibey take on faith. pads for days, a plump bass, and a focus on the original s sax make you wonder if the song itself somehow got stoned from a couple extra giant bong rips. a fitting way to end both the 12inch and the summer.

andrás cleans out the garage with new alias house of dad - a project that s both a dedication of love and a constructive criticism. recorded at his suburban family home, warmed by ducted central heating and microwaved frozen meals, this first release on h.o.d. records pays homage to his plumber father. a darting network of pipes, toilet supply lines and garden hoses, its a steady flow from the man-cave dwelling entrance to the garage to water diviner s mystical bleep. hard working man tightens the sample-based house music cliches clockwise it s hardyakka affirmation breaking in half under the weight of descending pianos and a gently whispered declaration of love. the blissfully content stereo dunnies and roof metal corrosion reflect on a job well done before the working week knocks off with poets day

recorded in st. petersburg over the course of 2015, this first release on glasgow based imprint 12th isleis a collaborative effort between dices & À,Ý,Ì, Ð,è,ò,ì,-Ê,à,ñ,ê,à,ä, (aka flaty/dada ques), affiliates of the udacha and gost zvuk record labels. titled Ì,û,ñ,ë,å,ï,î,ò,î,ê, (thoughtstream), the lp eschews trend in favour of meaningful sonic discovery, and in doing so offers as much to the adventurous dj as it does the attentive home listener. side a encompasses ambient synth textures reminiscent of 70s-era library music, established upon rhythms that evoke turn of the century detroit house. at once melancholic and playfully optimistic, the six tracks range from rhythmic experiments to sketch-like beatless vignettes. the flip side sets off in a slightly darker tone that is succeeded with pace and persistence in the drum patterns and winding arpeggiated bassline of caleidoscope. alongside the heavily swung hologram, these tracks are very club considerate a function that in no way offsets the records assured narrative purpose. across both a and b the music maintains this singular intent, channelling aspects of early sequence-based electronics and vintage space rock around a diverse and playful compendium of rhythms. comes with screen-printed sleeve, labels and insert.
