ab syndrom, the berlin duo, is coming with their third album. plastik is a bit like the coming of age album of the band. it tells stories of growing up emotionally and being played into a hard and post capitalistic environment. nevertheless you will find some quite romantic lyrics and songs between lyrical metaphors and a rough and urban reality in berlin neukšlln, their neighborhood. the music on plastik is mainly a percussion driven and electronic laden journey. not your average pop arrangements but subtle compositions and laid back vocals with a certain chopped and screw twist. the bands musical projection is a most consequent advancement of their three albums and their body of work so far. bennet seuss, singer and composer is defining his own style in writing autobiographic lyrics with a certain twist to the obscure and umtransparent. a great album for sure. tracklist cd keine geister feng shui patchwork waterboarding u8 ffm fake starring contest 2009 hattori hanzo schwert deephouse und tiefenrausch

it was in february 2015 when japanese producer and sound designer kuniyuki takahashi, sometimes known as koss, releases with the ep ™newwave project ¾2š a record, that tapped some roots of his mu-sical education: new wave, german electro punk from bands like a daf, ebm from acts like front 242 as well as industrial music. styles, about kuniyuki claims that they are his ™favourite musicš. now, nearly two years after his first newwave project ep, he drops an album that is leaning towards his musical love from the past. com-pared to his former work, that was rooted in worlds of classic, jazz, house, ambient, and electronic song-writing, his new tunes are full of melodic drifts and rhythmical shifts. as usual all is loaded with tones and rhythms straight from the heart that filter and modulate human emotions without losing their natural source. to get a sound that is fresh but still leaning to the 1980ees, he used some old synthesisers like a roland jupiter 8, a juno 60, a korg ms 20, an old tape echo machine but also new instruments like the roland aira. furthermore, his modular synthesizers talk too.

panorama bar resident nick ho&#776,,,,,ppner gets to work on his second solo album on ostgut ton, connecting the territories of house music with the ease of alt-pop. work as in labor. an axiom that fuels the capitalist system just as the techno/house scene economy says that one needs to keep oneself busy to make a living. as a musician, things are complicated of course. itÕs a long way from the romantic idea of creating music simply for the sake of art to becoming a full time musician. those who have accomplished this feat often find themselves in a professional loop of writing the music, producing it, promoting it (with an info text like this), releasing it and then hopefully selling it. after leaving his full time job as ostgut tonÕs label manager in 2012, nick ho&#776,,,,,ppner went fully freelance, focusing on his musically diverse, deep and dynamic djing in and outside berghainÕs panorama bar, but more importantly spending more time in the studio. the result was his critically acclaimed debut album folk (ostgut ton, 2015), various 12Ò releases and remixes, and now his sophomore lp, work, which, more than ever, lays out his refined production skills and his talent to work the machines until they reveal their inner ghosts: nine new songs that now dodge the dance floor, then fully embrace it.

als in den spŠten 80er jahren die ersten outdoor-trance-partys im indischen bundesstaat goa stattfanden, hŠtte niemand gedacht, dass sich dieser trend so lange halten bzw. weiterentwickeln wŸrde. kaum eine andere dance-szene in europa hat ein grš§eres zusammengehšrigkeitsgefŸhl als die goa-szene. hier wird musik und alles, was damit zusammenhŠngt, noch gelebt. zu keinem genre gibt es eine ausgeprŠgtere und besser entwickelte -underground--partyszene, in zahlreichen foren und communitys stehen die fans in regem kontakt. stŠndig finden kleinere veranstaltungen statt, und im sommer sind die gro§en festivals und partys wie waldfrieden wonderland, vuuv festival, alice im wummerland oder psy-purgisnacht immer ausverkauft.

cd airy, but still conveying a touch of hedonism in its most club-friendly sounds, this album is yukseks writing of a musical story. nous horizon È is yukseks great studio album comeback, 5 years after his last album. yukseks characteristic sound, midway between post-disco, house and pop, shines through on its various tracks. even more than on his last album, living on the edge of time, yuksek shows his talent as a singer. nous horizon is an album of mostly duets, invitations to sing together (break my heart, sunrise, sweet addiction, stay) featuring greek singer monika, french pop bands her, juveniles and roman rappak (from band breton) his new melodies are sunnier than before, his beats and production more subtle.

the reveries begin with a simple electrical hum Ð a starting signal for the appearance of a vibrant array of sound, shifting before us in seemingly random motion. before we know it, all those pulsating melodies, razor-cut hifi-house beats and drunken robot jazz ensembles start forming into patterns, secretly & perfectly designed by one art alfie. a long time operator in stockholmÕs small but insistent underground music scene, oscar wedrŽn broke through internationally in 2012 with the karlovak project, founded with on-off studio and dj partner rudolf nordstršm, a.k.a. mr. tophat. the duoÕs inexplicably fresh takes on classic dance music tropes is as much a result of a brilliantly odd pairing of personalities as of a defined concept and a precise method in searching for the perfect house groove. while writing reveries of, released early spring 2017 through studio barnhus, art alfie freed himself of all conceptual footholds, delving instead deep into his archives of old and new memories and feels, working with improptu field recordings and emotionally-guided sampling processes. he came back with an intricate and personal debut album and he didnÕt lose his groove on the way.

one plus one/indecisive is the 7inch release from the debut ep by melbourne band the do yo thangs a collection of sensual slow jams and bumping future soul dominated by rich, four-voice harmonies. one plus one is equal parts performance and programming, drawing from a broad palette of live instruments and electronic sounds. at the front, hugh and audrey alternate lead vocal duties, supported by harmony singers maddie otto and tiaryn griggs. backing them, the guitar sound is classic soul but the plethora of synthesizers and 808 kick drums is definitely not, nodding equally to vangelis or hiatus kaiyote. the more you listen, the more intricacy is discovered. the writing uses jazz elements and odd rhythmic devices, but it s all tucked away - theres nothing that intrudes into the foreground or interferes with the song s abilities to speak to an audience

brooklyn duo beacon explore the dark side of sweet melody with a sound thats as seductive as it is subtly discomfiting. thomas mullarney iii and jacob gossett are unstoppable. the new york artists, collectively known as beacon, have been on a productive hot streak since 2012, and their efforts continue to pay off. when we werent writing, mullarney starts, we hit the road and didnt really look back. we toured the us five times since the ways we separate came out, building this project the old-fashioned way. and beacons natural, time-tested process has brought us escapements, their sophomore album for ghostly. we went into this feeling liberated, continues the singer/producer, and gossett seems to echo his thought: this record is in part our attempt to formulate what beacon is going to look and sound like going forward.
