considering the combined talents of detroit veteran terrence dixon and black jazz consortium man fred p, you d expect this split ep for finale sessions to be a lesson in warm, soul-flecked depth. pleasingly, that s exactly what it delivers. dixon excels with the sub-sporting alien futurism of -to the bridge- - the aural equivalent of staring into space while dancing to electronic jazz - and the sumptuous, minor key bliss of the casual deep house jam -starting over-. fred p, meanwhile, delivers two contrasting cuts. there s some acid-fuelled deep house futurism in the shape of -circuit-, and a chunk of bongo-laden dancefloor humidity in -the road-, whose rising strings and sweet melodies are arguably the highlight of a superb ep.

rsvd kicks off with this blue knife ep by its main korova. blow out track reflects the full mentality of the label and comes with a thrilling tension stepping aside a bursting obscure dark progression and sinister heavy beats. alien blood is and ufo-like deadly bassline invasion drawing a dark strong hurting texture. deep waters original mix is a playful floor-killer techno jacking track. tsunami rocking upon and over the surface. its iys remix is fine rich and dry both mental dark stomping and odd hard hitting one: simple unique. a new excellent proof for the italian duo made by fusaroli and filardo.

deep space orchestras use of weapons label has always been a reliable source of analogue-heavy left of centre deep house, with each split ep, featuring tracks from a variety of like-minded producers, featuring a range of must-have nuggets. this expansive sixth release, with eight tracks spread across two slabs of wax, is no different. dso s beautiful and surprisingly fragile -mendoza- leads the way, with 7 citizens calming, alien house groover -fatum- close behind. arguably best of all, though, is other worlds -coldname eld-, a sparse and bassy concoction blessed with some brilliant, head high style pianos. it is, though, all good, with further impressive contributions from the detroit-included haku.

3 tone dorsal fin, a new international band from berlin is pleoavcee from san diego, djcksatron from dallas, nora lune from switzerland and the producer count frankula also known as frank muller or beroshima: glistening is a tingling feeling in the skin as well as being perceived by sight or the hairs in your ears. perception of a sensation throughout our whole body - says the artist. lets see. listen up. or glisten up! all introduced by a distorted pitched alien space child rambling incoherently until shaken up by hesitant laughter. raps that rhymes euphemism with hypnotism and swagging with lagging better be good.

harfloor killer tunes...alien cheerios is a crazy tribecore 190 bpm tune, no vocal samples just a bloody good evolution full of kick changes and a great sense of the dancefloor

this is a whole new level of weird - intones a disembodied voice on proximas thermal vision the lead track of his new 12 inch for tempa. it is a perfect summary of its disorienting appeal: winding upwards through a tense opening, it abruptly explodes into a turbulent salvo of percussion. its monstrous chunks of sound chop violently back and forth from speaker to speaker, assaulting dancers from all sides and broadsiding the senses, while sub-bass blasts upward from beneath. it is both alien and astonishingly intense, poised to detonate on dancefloors without ever resorting to stereotypical club banger tricks. it is easy to hear why proximas tracks have become regulars in dubstep scene figurehead youngstas record bag.

dj dijital and dj maaco team up for a smash collaboration of electro funk. sinister aliens are in the studio making dope basslines for us ... we didnt do the work they did!

already a regular fixture on figure, swedish talent mikael jonasson returns for his third outing on the label with two cutting-edge techno experiments. incredibly crisp and clear, already primed for the worlds finest bigsystems, cravings encapsulates everything that a modern paranoid techno jam should be. surging textures, static-madness and a whole lot of detail wrapped up in a rolling, funky workout. jonasson is well known for his attention to detail and freaky, alien sound effects, and cravings only solidifies his talents there. the fizzing, low slung thump of swings still twists and shimmers in the high frequencies, full of details, but the deeper earthy kick and bass barrage take this one into more serious, heads-down zones. a real slammer for moments when you know youve captured your followers completely

the 2 tracks that make up the first release to fully convey the spirit of the label, interconnectivity between different sound to agglomerate and coalesce into one nature, plastic music.

track b1 is not blood but mechanically oil that through a metal body, gives rise to an endless journey between the dub techno and detroit area.

the torino scale ... is a way of gauging the potential damage that may occur in the event of an impact from asteroids or other objects from space. as the richter scale measures the strength and potential damage from earthquakes, the torino scale is used to measure the potential for damage from objects striking earth. it is all about impact... but it is also about beginnings, as scientists discovered that primal dna might have been carried to the earth by an asteroids collision with earth. the torino scale is the debut solo album from berlin based producer and supersoul recordings head xaver von treyer, aka xaver naudascher. the result is astral pop music that swirls around the idea of beginnings, ends and aggregate states, whilst staying true to the known supersoul sound - strong connections to dance music (krautrock, italo, chicago and detroit) without being nostalgic or exclusive to one style.
limited edition of 350 numbered copies. comes as red coloured, black & white marbled triple 12 inch vinyl in heavy cardboard box, including cd-copy of the full album.

as emotional rescue continues to deliver the goods for those who love discofied rarities from the 70s and 80s, here comes this ep from kevin harrison, originally released in 1982 and worth a pretty penny second hand. it is a wistful, proggy kind of groove that finds harrisons voice lost in an alien phaser while the live band feel gels with synthesiser parts for a fluid kind of cosmic goodness. there is simply no arguing with the plush melodic wonderment of >views of the rhine<, while >fly< is the jam the party djs will reach for, not least for its slinky bassline. amazing.

cool phreakin and spooky real electro bombs... anthony rother style

nice price deal !!! a killer first release on flight recorder. we present label founder iron blu who drops a 4-tracker of deep, stripped back detroit-tinged techno. side a opens with an intense drum-driven, string-laden stomper, whilst the second track continues with a growling bass holding the alien stabs and scattering snares together. side b goes deeper, with endless eye navigating a deep bass beneath sweet strings and angular synths, then the final track goes into dub realms and even deeper.

already causing a stir on promo, dark arts 01 comprises 4 tracks of deeply arresting dancefloor music. mid blue is a soundtrack for the darkest corner of the warehouse. the square bass grabs you from the first bar and combines with cosmic sweeps to drag you down deep before the toms come in to add that all-important funk factor. broken space is a beautifully playful track. the stuttering beat, organic percussion and melodic touches merge with the darkest of strings to create a sound rooted in classic electronica but belonging firmly in the present. restraint is a burst of heavyweight electroid futurism – rock-solid beats and alien sounds from god-knows which galaxy combine with a razor-sharp cymbal attack. handle with care. proper deep detroit business – a quote from just one of techno’s most well-respected producers.red_dust2 is a huge, rolling tech-house rhythm, mixing the warmth of the motor city with the cold machine funk found this side of the pond. pure, timeless and custom-built for the dancefloor. mastered by one of the most well respected engineers in techno and pressed in one of europe’s finest pressing plants, dark arts 01 is limited to 250 hand stamped, clear vinyl copies.

the 3rd album by clap your hands say yeah - its officially time to get hysterical!

we are happy to introduce a brand new act to the scene: dscrd, a young band of five alien electronic music composers from paris, france. in mountain cabins with high range microphones, in dark parisian suburbs with broken synths, and, really lost somewhere in outer space mostly of the time, dscrd have been creating their very own alchemy. this is their debut ep on dement3d records, and it is brilliantly blending techno, dub and ambient-noise with field recordings, dark atmospheres and syncopated rhythms made with poetry and dedication. >this record is a statement, and we are proud to present it as our very first release @ dement3d records.<

having launched blkrtz to wide spread critical acclaim with his album drawn and quartered in june this year, deadbeat now enlist the aid of two fellow berlin residents who need no introduction for remix duties. working with the source material from the first quarter, scuba dons his scb guise and turns in a slow burning sci-fi techno monster sure to appeal to fans of monolake and his own early work. rife with reverb drenched sonar pings and mechanized groans in the periphery, the track lurches toward its epic crescendo like an alien infested star ship nostromo sliding slowly to its demise into the center of a black hole. bringing things back up into the light on the flip, efdemin tranforms the fourth quarter (calas house) into a chugging deep pocket house journey. riding the cusp of a rubbery bassline and molding the chords into a timeless house organ motif, the originals dubwise leanings are heard loud and clear through a cloud of crackling unintelligible vocal samples and thunderous spring reverb crashes worthy of king tubby himself. without a doubt two floor ready reinterpretations and a great sign of things to come from deadbeats new curatorial ventur

connan mockasins willingness to toy with the edges of musical convention is showcased to startling effect in >faking jazz together<, its typically opaque title belying a gorgeous, leisurely amble through an enchanted forest of lush psychedelia, complete with dreamy guitar licks, liquefied salsa rhythms and mockasins trademark alien vocals, sounding like a transmission from another cosmos, ghostly yet strangely affecting all at once. tom furse from the horrors, meanwhile, extrapolates the beats from the original and relocates them in a wide-eyed, sprawling dub epic akin to screamadelica-era primal scream, and renowned german producer (and kompakt lynchpin) michael mayer builds a propulsive, tropical-flavoured anthem around mockasins unusual vocals, with delightfully unpredictable results. even better, you can see connan mockasin in glorious live action this autumn, when he and his band embark on their own headline tour of the uk, playing dates across the country at the end of september. having already toured with warpaint in the summer, as well as scoring the first short film from acclaimed video director kinga burza, and collaborating with the idiosyncratic likes of charlotte gainsbourg and sam eastgate of late of the pier, it is certain that the eccentric pleasures of connan mockasin arent going to stay a cult secret for too much longer.
comes on transparent yellow vinyl.

the a12 motorway was wrapped in complete darkness. the lights of the windmills were blinking in the rhythm of the rotor blades passing by. they appeared just before sunrise. no one had ever seen this kind of creature ever before: red flashing, and bright shining alien butterflies attracted by the windmills. people stopped, and got out of their cars to watch this spectacle. the flying creatures were constantly creating new, kaleidoscope-like formations, and slowly, and very softly at first, they started singing. and although nobody really understood their behaviour, everybody understood their wistful and hopeful song.

our japanese dear friend hidenobu ito is definitely overwhelming and it seems almost comically out of place. from alien hydraulics to percussive steel fractals he allows to take shape within the realm of impossibility. so, what follows next on numbolic records is a stunning lesson in subtle buildup of sound design. theres a feeling of constant movement and shaky energy that means his music never quite stands still. highly resonant and rapidly-panning drum hits act like flickering fluorescent lights. the result is a heavily abstracted layering and perhaps our most sonically release to date. every sound, no matter how tiny, is endlessly tweaked and picked apart. the 12 inch ep is rounded off with 2 prickly re-interpretations. dualism turns up the fog with a super-deep captivating and yet lovingly version. while ditch comes up with a characteristic throbbing dirty techno rework. another 4 smashing tracks by hidenobu ito are added digitally as well as two bonus remixes. kai provides a dance floor-approved version and the hungarian newcomer as we said made a cartoon spaceship to the moon. big pulsating bass kicks will drive you in that particular head-space, but before accidentally killing someone in love, we suggest go get this record instead and start dance! be numbolic!

transmissions sends us four intercepted signals from the mothership hovering over the motor city primed for the peak-time dancefloor that range from outer space techno trips to alien hip-shaking deep house. theres no fads here and no so-hip move faking, just quality in its purest form, and that alone can seem alien back on earth in these times…

with u is the debut release by elusive producer holy other. following on from critically acclaimed records by balam acab, ooooo and how to dress well, with u is the fourth release on tri angle records. taking the alien kinetics of uk garage, the euphoric highs of vocal house and the slow, sensuality of r&b, holy other has created a sound that s as melancholy as it is beautiful, spectral and yet slightly at unease with itself. playing these five songs feels like a slow, solitary walk into the city night, lights flashing around you, muted where once they seemed to shine more brightly. with u was recorded in berlin, gothenburg and manchester, where holy other currently resides.
