stuck in the depths of a dark alley, blocked by yet another breeze, hitting a stone wall, road sign ahead: dead end. impasse. “cul-de-sac”. hip-hop. the original, some would say, official music of the late 20th century bronx. some say it has endured it’s fair share of distractions, detractors and defectors. some say it has murdered itself, having been abandoned by its so-called best men, those who have gone off in other directions, or who have, simply, just beat-retired. yet, there are plenty of soldier monks still out there, prepared to sweat it out in the temple of machinery and mics. low cut honored this cause four years ago, with his mpc crafted minimalist version of ny minute and he’s back to ring the bells and unsheathe the samples!
the double vinyl release includes a download code.

downliners sekt zählen zu den bemerkenswertesten künstlern der brodelnden electronic-szene barcelonas. auf ihrem dritten longplayer -silent ascent- fesseln sie den hörer mit einer überzeugenden mixtur aus post-dubstep, berliner techno-dub und leftfield-hip hop. ihr deeper sound ist inspiriert von der wissenschaft von autechre, den geisterechos des basic channel-sublabels burial mix und dem shoegaze von my bloody valentine. zu ihren fans zählen solch gestandene kollegen wie mount kimbie, john talabot, kevin the bug martin oder mary anne hobbs. deshalb wundert es nicht, dass sie für die produktion von silent ascent die berliner produzentenlegende rashad becker gewinnen konnten, der maßgeblich am basic channel-sound beteiligt war.

jahr für jahr versorgt das label mobilee die techno- und house-gemeinde mit einer weiteren ausgabe der “back to back”-reihe. mittlerweile ist man bei der elften kompilation angekommen. was die zusammenstellung immer so besonders macht: jedes mal übernimmt ein anderer nachwuchs-dj/produzent aus dem berliner labelstall die verantwortung, und 2017 ist anja schneiders protegé kevin over an der reihe.

who whom is a new label from paul rose. the artists are various, the sound particular. the first 12” comprises tracks by isaac reuben, bleak, markus suckut and antonio ruscito, and is titled ‘curse of sherwood’.

spring is in the air and matteo pepe, aka uabos, is taking away that winter chill with four tracks of house warmth and machine funk. acid bars float on crisp claps for the uplifting -mystic force-. the italian keeps the floor stoked with the sample strewn grooves of -copacabana- before the synths take over with the lush chords of -city woods-.-karmic souls- closes, meandering notes bend and shimmer on clean percussion for an exotic climax to an ep of ambitious analogue delights.

moody records is proud to present their second release by lucky charmz (lehult). seaside greetings is not a typical dance record - after the house banger on a1 lucky charmz is diving deep into disco, downtempo and soul chops until the dissolution into space.

identitatem ep is a perfect falling point in marco bruno s dimension, old-school shades meets a powerful wave of basses and 909 drums for an outstanding work composed by three original tracks and a remix by roberto clementi. let introduce you this guy who already detains brilliant releases on decoy, flash rec, sk black, and many more. we re waiting for his debut on dynamic reflection.

an object resists changing its state of motion with inertia. what pushes back must then be even more vigorous in order to create a uid movement. an example of the force that embodies this dynamic can be found clearly on the appropriately titled inertia, aiken’s much anticipated return to chronicle. the spanish artist has been spending years honing his craft, focusing on sharp, distinct sounds that create a pure sense of kinetic energy. the title track of the ep bolsters a erce disarray of carefully (de)constructed atonal synthwork and a rhythm section that is set to detonate. it is then followed by “axial”, a track that stays as true to modular miscalculations as it does to stripped down techno, combining both in a subliminal cessation of sanity. however aiken isn’t done there. he continues with “magnetism”, which throws a brick in the glass of conventionality with its earth-shaking layers of textured momentum. phased pads then wash over “soul drama”, bringing the entire experience to an emotionally laced denouement. after the potency of his last record on chronicle as well as his releases on imprints such as his own label timeline and the spanish powerhouse semantica, inertia marks a de nitive step forward for an already exceptionally de ned artist.

following up the entity crew’s first release comes another residents ep, with two tracks from shai spooner + jordan dessar and a stellar remix from mannheim’s finest, fabe.
staying true to their london-centric sound, tracks -balanced diversity- and -soul dub- are peppered with references to uk garage, breakbeat and house, further helping the young label establish their soundscape.
the release is topped off by fabe’s remix of -balanced diversity-, a rocket of a track primed for the dancefloor and set to be an anthem. the perfect icing on the cake for this second, really strong release from entity.

jordan fields and parisian protege french phil give us the very groovy, deep and abstract what a life! 12- featuring a remix from the uman records crew also out of france. what a surprise to see this underground trax imprint returning celebrating 15 years no less. there surely is some history to be learned as discogs shows new jersey s som being connected with releases from stacy kidd, roy davis jr. and a couple from jordan fields as well. very interesting indeed. much more coming so keep your eyes and ears open!

beflügelt vom großen erfolg der ersten zusammenstellung hat es sich der dj, jazz-maestro, obsessive plattensammler und if-labelchef jean-claude thompson nicht nehmen lassen, zu einer zweiten reise in tiefe jazzlandschaften einzutauchen. sein dreifach-vinyl ist gedacht für alte hasen und junge dancefloor-hüpfer, arrivierte auskenner und neugierige novizen. denn: kaum jemanden dürften die obskuren, seelenvollen und natürlich längst nicht mehr regulär erhältlichen stücke bekannt sein, die thompson aus welchen plattenkisten auch immer ans tageslicht geholt hat. dabei sind es gar nicht einmal sonderlich viele, zeichnen sich die meisten der insgesamt neun tracks doch durch eine laufzeit von zehn bis zwölf minuten aus, “latin black funk” von sparrow währt sogar 20 minuten. der spirit lebt!

zweiter lp-sampler als tribut an den legendären soul-club twisted wheel, der mit seinem resident-dj roger eagle acht jahre lang an zwei verschiedenen locations der definitive soul- und rhythm & blues-hotspot im manchester der 1960’er jahre war und dem britischen publikum bislang ungehörte, afroamerikanische tanzmusik beibrachte. mit 16 definitiven klassikern, darunter bob & earls -harlem shuffle-, -the duck- von jackie lee oder screamin jay hawkins -i put a spell on you-.

helge schneider und der jazz sind genauso wenig zu trennen, wie helge schneider und die komik. bereits vor über zehn jahren tourte er mit eigenem jazztrio, zu dem auch der britische schlagzeuger pete york gehört.
mit diesem langjährigen gefährten und guten freund hat er jetzt ein album aufgenommen, ein jazzalbum versteht sich. »heart attack no.1« verbindet eigene kompositionen und coversongs im helge-style.

one of italy’s brightest new talents, clap! clap! (aka cristiano crisci) returns with his second album for black acre, following on from his colorful breakthrough debut lp ‘tayi bebba’. bringing together disparate inspirations and styles onto the dance-floor of his mind, ‘a thousand skies’ sees clap! clap! create a high energy and inventive kaleidoscopic fusion of sound – drawing on the traditional global rhythms of the old world, hip hop, footwork, uk bass and house.

3lp + dl card. hyper opal mantis is a triptych on 3 states of desire, and the first long player of kangding ray for stroboscopic artefacts. hyper is the primal, sensual lust, opal is the emotional catharsis, a blissful desire for love. mantis, like the insect it refers to, is the destructive, fatal attraction.

we are seemingly headed towards dark and confusing times. the tension inside of the people is rising so instead of putting more gasoline to the fire and fueling the rage i submit to you these sounds of peace. not black music or white music. not borders or class. just music. it’s time to stop labeling music, just as it is time to stop labeling humans as 1st class and 2nd class citizens. if you can ignore my broken voice and if you could only look past my music’s imperfections, you would feel me instead of hearing me and maybe then you could get a small glimpse of the hope that the people feel when they are at my concerts and understand the idea that many great men and women before me like bob marley and john lennon had, that we are all one. the idea that had brought hope and countless others. the hope that makes them scream: peace forever. (charles x)

some serious 1970’s afro dancefloor hits, surely a promising favorite among deejays, afrofunk and tropical music revival aficionados. vinyl diggers can finally play some of ivory coast’s hardest to find deep funk, afrobeat, manding and tropical rhythms tunes recorded by such legends as moussa doumbia, de frank jr or francis kingsley.

seelenvoller detroit-techno: eine heimkehr zu den eigenen wurzeln.

right after a short break on loco records, the polish duo of producers karol xvii & mb valence return to present a series of eps entitled sessions. there are currently two episodes ready to come out: day session, and night session with a consequent vinyl release called session.

the record opens up with the poisonous title-track “two scorpios”, where sharp analogue leads lean on a relentless disco-funk groove, thrusting us out straight against the sweaty walls of the chicago’s muzic box. the airy and enchanting spirals of “solenoid” create a detachment for a sonic trip through circling arpeggios and sparkles. on the flip side, we reconnect abyssy to the “young soulomon” of early 90’s by a warm and robotics dusty house. the mood turns definitely more freaky with “slomo kid”: sampling divertissement with a punkish flavour and emphatic rhythmics, it is the perfect tune to shake down the whole ball of wax.

“breakbeat” lou flores is reviving ultimate breaks & beats with a producer series, debuting with an album by oh no in january 2017. oh no s 17-track collection was made entirely with sources from the original ubb series.
