it was his signature and his sound, and if there is one record that both derrick and myself couldn t be more honoured to re-release as a testament to his legacy, a record that defined kenny as a dj, and a record that keeps that light shining, then it s this one. viva the dark lord.

niche n bump is a new label from london, started by one of the crew behind the wifey club nights. their stated aim is to make records that djs will play forever, not just a few weeks, and they are taking an emphatic step towards that goal with an inaugural release by the timeless spatial.
the record begins a new phase for spatial, where intuition and chance take over, with whirlpools of echo sucking in disco vocals and reggae samples.

every once in a while a record or in this case an ep comes along and its so bursting with feel good vibes that even the most cynical dance music listener cant resist. at the mere age of 19, francisco davalos is about to grab the attention of many. simply put, the young mexican has a superb ear for the language of music. after a recent 12 on nurvous (nervous records new sublabel), on the prowl finds itself lucky to land these four tropical themed disco tinged club bombs. with hints of what made tensnakess coma cat so successful the bronx skillfully puts together his tropical ep packed with plenty of playful pianos, strings, congas, marimbas... theres no holding back.

these redux releases are like buses, we dont hear anything for ages then they hit us with three killer eps in a row. following the grand corporation and machete savane comes the return of phoreski. we have not heard much from phoreski for a little while, but you will soon hear why when you put the needle to the record on these two new tracks. he has been busily building up his studio into an enviable aladdins den of vintage kit, wires and analogue recording equipment. all synths and vocals you hear on these tracks come from phoreski, no samples, no guests, no edits. he has been hinting at this raw, analogue authentic sound for a while, but these tracks showcase a producer at one with the machines. >brown biscuits< comes across like some lost italo/cosmic gem, but via the north east of england rather than the lakes of italy. >machines< flexes tight proto-house rhythms with some bass that will make mince meat of lesser club soundsystems whilst the feuding synth lines fight for attention. this is proper body music, play loud!

we have made no secret of our love for terrence dixon here at thema. after his thema debut with >the parkhurst<, a record that helped to reignite his career, we have seen the legendary figure move on to even bigger things, and we helped the cause even more just recently with his >the return< ep as population one on our chronicle sublabel. his resurgence has reminded us what always drew us and many others to his work from the beginning, and it is thus with immense pride that we announce minimalism re:vision, featuring remixes of terrence dixons groundbreaking minimalism part 1 from 1995.
