konzept des werkes ist es klassische erasure-songs neu als country- oder akustik-versionen einzuspielen, diese lieder damit komplett aus ihrem elektro-pop-korsett zu lösen. damit werden die songs auf ihre essenz reduziert, das songwriting rückt in das zentrum der wahrnehmung. erasure-juwelen wie boy und piano song in versionen mit akustik- oder steel-pedal-gitarre zu hören, ist jedenfalls ein großes vergnügen.

since fabrikate first emerged with a remix of the weeknd’s often in 2014, the duo has showcased a variety of influences on productions ranging from traditional deep house to sounds reminiscent of the l.a. bass house scene. despite rising success, fabrikate retain their anonymity, hidden behind minimalist masks when on stage or behind the camera. in contrast to the vibrant aesthetic that permeates their overall image, the duo remains stoic and silent, taking a shadowy step into the background so their music can truly take centre stage.

faraway reach casts classixx’s young-but-nostalgic melodies and sublime chords in a more mature, restrained light, albeit no less lively and bright. establishing themselves as producers of note on their debut lp (pitchfork called them “great songwriters, too”), faraway reach delivers powerfully smooth and soulful jewels that are still decidedly their own - the classixx signature is one that can’t be traced. their love of plaintive voices and disco-inspired grooves is as evident as ever, but this time around everything is a bit bolder, the cast is bigger, the melodies distilled into a higher potency - it’s all just as good, but better. “on the first record, we wanted to include only people that were our friends, and have it be really personal…” david begins, a thought blake finishes: “this time we wanted to make a record with a lot of different kinds of vocals, to see if we could be the common thread.” the album traverses locales, vocalists and inspirations. it s a fitting movement for the duo, from venice beach to the mountains of south africa and everywhere in between - a faraway reach.

keeping the concept of a tight knit family of artists, up next on sol asylum is the follow up ep for the dilated pupils titled introducing remi. this collective of likeminded artists from the netherlands return to the label with a solid four-track ep that shows their range and diversity as producers. moving full speed ahead we start off with “remi at 21.16” a track that instantly hypnotizes you on the dance floor with its echoing harmonic synths and a complex metallic snare pattern. the track is a slow burner that explodes when the dirty analog kick, swinging bassline, and filtered percussion melt into an atomic fusion. next we take it to the next level with “do” its underwater bubbling percussion, bleeping stabs and eerie synth take us to the far off corners of space with just enough acid to keep our heads down and grooving to the strobe light in a dark room. as we move into fall with “october times” a tightly woven groove and galloping kicks push us into more experimental territory with soaring vintage synths that create tension and finesse at the same time. finally we finishing things off with the esoteric vibes of “suque” this deep and dirty track channels the positive force from another realm, which is the perfect match for the inspiriting concept of sol asylum.

this is for those with hard heads, black lungs, and scarred hearts. it is for the dreamers who construct darts on loose-leaf and those revolting against corporate life and casual fridays. it is castles return of the gasface, released on mello music group, remixed by has-lo with a new track and revamped verses. the new record tilts at a different angle, but the beats still bludgeon without sacrificing soul. the raps are rugged yet introspective. the north carolina natives voice is grizzled and shot through with the fatigue that comes from late nights, cigarettes and coffee. has-los beats coax a deeper melancholy out of castles hymns.

der vorabtrack made to stray aus dem neuen album cold spring fault less youth schlug in der weltweiten trendszene ein wie der blitz: von pitchfork bis nme, von fact bis resident advisor überschlugen sich die aufgeregten lobeshymnen zum ersten neuen mount kimbie material seit zwei jahren. das visionäre duo, seit seinem debüt als neue vordenker in sachen elektronischer musik anerkannt, hat die schwammige schublade des post-dubstep endgültig verlassen und entflieht mit live-instrumentierung, warmen keyboardsounds und geerdeten schlagzeugbeats der enge des dance/electro-kontextes. auch die verpflichtung des enigmatischen vokalisten king krule dürfte ihren anteil daran haben. die elf neuen mount kimbie tracks wirken reifer, selbstbewusster und noch mutiger, und ihr wechsel zu warp wird ihre entwicklung hin zu noch ganz anderen klanggefilden, kontexten und konstellationen weiter beflügeln.

after releasing his highly praised sophomore full-length mantasy (komcd100/kom250) last year, kompakt honcho michael mayer signed on some of his favorite artists to rework the album material to their liking. the second entry in a series of three, mantasy remixe 2 features grandiose remixes from accomplished producers agoria, robag wruhme and will saul & october markedly picking up on the originals thirst for adventure. seminal frenchman agoria certainly doesnt need an introduction to any self-respecting fan of electronic dance music, as the long list of worldwide floor biggies released by this unique producer indisputably proves.

the man they called brokof was a blazing star in one familys dark history. a player with a wandering heart. the band called brokof follows him into the vastness and gives it a face. they draft a map with songs. singing with beautiful solemn sadness about encounters and fleeting moments of truth. hinting at rage born from the loss that occurs when one moves in life. about what one has to gain when there is nothing expected. when hope has turned to echoes and dust.
these are pop songs purged and reduced to the core.every sound stands alone to serve the song. there are no tricks. through their naked vulnerability they find their power. the structure is stark and the messages clear.

das label affine samt seinem aushaengeschild, dem microkorg-wunderkind dorian concept, ist eine der positivsten erscheinungen des vergangenen jahres in der oesterreichischen musiklandschaft. nicht nur kenner der heimischen szene, sondern auch groe§en wie gilles peterson lassen sich vor verzueckung zu wahren lobesreden hinrei§en, und das, obwohl die ep -twice upon two times- erst der zweite offizielle release des plattenlabels ist. bei jsbl trifft groovender jazz-rock mit progressiver verspieltheit auf knackige keyboard-synthie-lines, produktionstechnische sicherheit und viel liebe zum musikalischen detail.

don’t be fooled, for a second. “this is a sad, sad song / for all you sad, sad people,” announces ganglians’ creative core and lead singer ryan grubbs at the outset of the sacramento-based band’s second lp, still living. the guitars, strummed with sun- rays, and the percussion, sprightly with springtime enthusiasm, tell a different tale.
