duat (pronounced do-aht) was the realm of the dead in ancient egyptian mythology. the deity osiris was believed to be the lord of the underworld since he personified rebirth and life after death, being the first mummy as depicted in the osiris myth.the underworld was also the residence of various other gods along with osiris. the duat was the region through which the sun god re traveled from west to east each night, and it was where he battled apep, who embodied the primordial chaos which the sun had to defeat in order to rise each morning and bring order back to the earth. it was also the place where people s souls went after death for judgement, though that was not the full extent of the afterlife. burial chambers formed touching-points between the mundane world and the duat, and the akh, the effectiveness of the dead, could use tombs to travel back and forth from the duat. duat (or duatrecords) is a label by amin fallaha and r100

prime are delighted to announce the long-awaited official 12 inch re-release of probably the most revered paradise garage anthem of all time - m.f.s.b. feat the three degrees and the now legendary -love is the message-. originally released in 1973, -love is the message- has sustained dance-floors across the world ever since and here we present the full original 11.28 mix from tom moulton which is always a £25-30 record if you ve ever been lucky enough to find a mint one and copies of the rarer u.s. 12- with the long mix are like gold! worry no more as the quality on this 12- is from the best master and 100% sanctioned by sony music. on the flip we are proud to re-release -t.s.o.p. (the sound of philadelphia)- aka the official soul train theme, using tom moulton s full original 5.42 mix. another piece of significant dance-floor history. as double-siders go, it really doesn t get any better than this. there is already high-demand from lots of djs needing to replace their battered copies so accept no substitute. this is the real deal.

lyon-based beatsmith ethyène has patented a certain style of mid-tempo house music applying a french touch aesthetic to disco, r&b and hip-hop sample references. through releases on longtime underground favorite kolour ltd and upstart labels like kyoku, as well as contributions to his own moonrise hill material, the frenchman has quickly built a sought after discography. his collaboration with better listen comes at an interesting time, as he seems to really be refining his sound, maturing sonically and honing the synthesis of the aforementioned influences to something nicely unique. the playin with fire ep is a deliciously bittersweet four track affair. the a1 slot sees e joining forces with his homie, the much acclaimed folamour, for the superlative why my love. meanwhile, loneliness of the shadow dancer- continues the r&b cream vibes, combining a classic head-nodding hip-hop flip with a soul chorus. the b-side gets a bit moodier, with the title track climatically building on hypnotically deep riffs and vocals and i sold yayo to buy kicks serving as the bob james-esque closer. the package is a cohesive reflection of a pensive and slightly anguished mindstate, with boom bap cultural influences and his familiar philadelphia streets functioning as the canvas. dont be surprised if this record serves as a point of stylistic elevation for the young producer, with plenty more of this new ammunition in the chamber. and you know the saying: if you play with fire, you might turn into a scorching hot phoenix.

the 12th installment in the falling ethics series is an adventurous piece of work. tensal and p.e.a.r.l. team up on this split ep to showcase their production styles which are mainly built around crafty drum loops and buoyant synth experiments.
tensal takes care of the a-side where he takes care of one flaming techno cut for the dancefloor which is followed up by two adventurous pieces of electronica.
p.e.a.r.l. also took care of three cuts on the b-side. the opening track �joy of rapture� is a straight forward demonstration of machine heavy techno. �fall before you� is a deep and soul wrenching cut that showcases p.e.a.r.l.�s more delicate side. �red flame� is a piece of horror reminiscent ambient.

during the mid-1970s, the aggrovators could do no wrong. this ace team of session musicians that was forged as an off-shoot of the soul syndicate were responsible for some of the biggest hits of the decade, recorded with bunny lees rising stars, such as johnnie clarke and his rival, cornell campbell. following on from the great shalom dub set of 1975, rasta dub 76 is another truly magnificent dub set culled from aggrovators hits (by johnny clarke, cornell campbell and others), this time, the entire album was given a scintillating mix-down at king tubbys studio by the great prince jammy, and the sonic excellence has stood the test of time. another must-have for all connoisseurs of dub.

born roy samuel reid in saint thomas in 1944, i roy was one of jamaicas all-time greatest deejays. a natural-born toaster, his rhyming raps always sounded effortless, whether describing the harsh realities of the inner city, or making light of nonsense nursery rhymes. a former employee at customs and excise, he was first active on a sound system called soul bunnies in the rock steady era, moving to son�s junior in 1968, and later, to the legendary supreme ruler of sound, defecting to the rival stereo sound system after that. hits for harry mudie and other producers soon followed, and after the killer debut album presenting i roy impacted overseas, the toaster began spending frequent periods in london. his longstanding working relationship with hit-making producer bunny lee led to some of his most noteworthy albums during the mid 1970s, the 1977 set cant conquer rasta is a superb showcase-style album, on which the toaster blows hard lyrics over five of lees killer rockers rhythms (recorded with the likes of johnny clarke), each complete with a corresponding aggrovators dub on the flip, all mixed by prince jammy at king tubbys studio

the spiritual jazz classic from 1976 back as an exact reproduction.

one of the sweetest and most idiosyncratic voices in reggae, tenor singer cornell campbell also has one of the longest-running careers of any jamaican recording artist. taken under studio one founder clement sir coxsone dodd�s wing at a very young age, cornell cut his first recordings in 1956, long before ska was even established. he remained based at studio one for many years (working as a label printer as well as a recording artist), and also voiced sides for king edwards in the ska years. he then briefly joined the sensations in rock steady and recorded at treasure isle, before moving back to studio one as leader of the eternals when reggae arrived, cutting huge hits there such as stars and queen of the mistrel, and giving early coaching to slim smith, jacob miller and bassist robbie shakespeare. joining forces with ace producer bunny striker lee in the mid-1970s brought a dramatic new surge in popularity that greatly boosted his profile overseas. the ropin lp was issued on third worlds justice subsidiary in 1980 a sub label set up to handle strikers product in the uk (though hits like mash you down and the title track had been handled in jamaica by joe gibbs). one of the albums outstanding moments is bandulu, an anti-rude boy epic voiced on the late night blues rhythm, while opening cover, just my imagination, has an uncredited toasting portion from errol scorcher.

after 100hz bosconi is proud to announce another hero from the undergorund uk techno scene joining the family: having previously released on such labels as down low, headspace, 7th sign and his own iridite label, rei loci from glasgow makes his debut on our the florentine imprint with a massive four tracker ep called -holding pattern-.the record starts with deep driving transportation of the detroitish techno and hard-to-find dancefloor weapon -deep blue-, previously released on iridite, here on it s original -unedited- version, followed by the jacked out swing and soulful vibe of the more atmospheric a2 track -horizons-. flipside instead consists in the subliminal acidic pump and sensual mood of -serchin- as b1, while last cut is taken by the ethereal, psychedelic, afterhour jam named -mal-. oldskool, good school

dan curtin s name has long been associated with future looking techno, machine music oozing with soul and emotion. he has released on many seminal labels throughout his career and left an indelible mark on contemporary electronic music. alive / cascade is perhaps a lesser known entry into curtin s catalogue, released on strictly in 1994 and is almost the perfect synthesis of nyc deep house and detroit techno, a true slept on gem of a record. the music contained within the grooves of this record defy any sort of time frame, it s almost hard to believe it s over 20+ years old. a truly beautiful record, alive / cascade is a must for all electronic music lovers and will undoubtedly continue to be played and enjoyed for the next 20+ years ahead. astounding stuff and yet another example of the wide reaching ears and minds operating strictly rhythm during this golden period.

uncertainty. no set route. destination unknown. younger than me know it s the journey that counts, and they premiere with quite the musical journeyman. the dulcet tones of none other than the don, fred ventura, accompany the title piece, a grooving melody ticks over against clean beats. san proper kick up some dust, adding some grit and soul to the original. the flip takes on a darker aspect. the giallo flavoured -not for all- looms and lurks before the dream woven depths of -don demorder-.

jax dax returns on the magic waves label with a 5-track ep of hard-edged twitched-out horror-fuelled paranoid psycho-techno for your mind, body and soul. a soundtrack to the nightmare future-world of earth in the 21st century, the rave resistance is back with a bang and kicking off here. move fast, copies are limited.

another cornerstone record from the mighty strictly rhythm catalogue, waterfalls / feel it is an essential example of the deeper, more melodic style of house that emanated from nyc / nj in the early to mid 90s. originally released in 1991 the ep features the production style of andrew rags richardson with some co-production assistance from one roger sanchez. it perfectly encapsulates the style of music that would be played at clubs like the loft, shelter, zanzibar and beyond, a more emotive and soulful strain of house that gives a respectful nod to it s disco roots. waterfalls / feel it has long been the toast of house aficionados and is most definitely a record that will still have people rushing the booth asking what s this? an evergreen slab of wax indeed. essential sounds for the heads.

jesse bru�s release on slivers invokes early edit based house with a number of tracks both for the head and dancefloor alike. similar to bru�s eclectic and expansive releases as of late, �giving me the feels�, as the title suggests, focuses on a focus on soulful sounds that has become his signature.
