busking really is next-level in berlin, with the acoustic guitar replaced by the laptop, drum machine and minimoog, all powered by a car battery. it was this thrown together setup that first introduced the world to skinnerbox as iftah gabbai and olaf hilgenfeld took their leftfield, jazzy attitude and improvised genre-bridging music to the streets of berlin for impromptu jam sessions. it wasnt long before skinnerbox were rocking the floors of ritter butzke and wilde renate and getting their music pressed to the black gold was surely the next step...

hand numbered vinyl only release, limited edition of 350 copies

we were surprised when dominik knocked on our door with two tracks from gabriel ananda and himself. we had released *harzer roller*, *kirschplunder & jasmin tee bei gabriel* and *eucalypse now!* ages ago and these releases for us always had a special quality, a kind of energy exchange which took place between them, so we were excited to hear their newest recordings. once heard we instantly knew: these tracks are crowd-pleasers in a big way and come now for the first time on vinyl!

in the 70s radio stations were a powerful force across the whole of the us, and anyone with a transistor radio had access all kinds of music. live music was another matter altogether, and unless you found yourself in a major city your nights out were limited to what the local talent had to offer. this was especially so with soul and funk acts, as mainstream rock and pop was where the money was. so for small time oklahoma soul bands such as husband and wife charles and barbara burtons groups messengers inc - and later burton inc - times were tough. however, like many purveyors of soul, tough times were no match for those with determination, persistence and a story to tell. many artists scraped enough money together to make a 45 or two on their own label, but the burtons took this to another level – they got themselves organised and released their own full length lps.
limited to 1000 individually numbered vinyl lps.

we booked dj sotofett a few months ago for a versatile party at rex club. he decided to stay in paris a bit more, to work with gilb-r in the versatile studio. and here is the result! they jammed with zombie zombie, recording the infamous bongos of cosmic neman and the modular synths and saxophone of etienne jaumet. then each of them took the parts and did a version on his own. its the beginning of a collaboration, another 12 inch is planned and already recorded... peace

dedicated to the rozelle warehouse, a decrepit building in a forgotten corner of memphis tennessee, where bassbins shook ancient dust from the walls, lives were forever altered, and one guy took way too much acid.

without a label since 1978, joe cocker signed to island records in 1981.chris blackwell (head of island) took him to the bahamas, where he recorded a 12 inch single, >sweet little woman / look what you ve done<, and continued working on a full length album: sheffield steel. the result was a successful album, which put cockers name back on the map.
music on vinyl brings this classic album back as 180 grams audiophile vinyl pressing.

muscle tuff is the gyms label compilation. each artist took a different approach to create mind blowing workout music. this compilation proves that gym aficionados can be melancholic and deeply existentialistic, meditating on the world s serious issues, while gently pumping iron.

in 2011, we begin to think about doing a record label. we had been following somaticae for some time and at this moment he was playing some art & punk gigs with a furious live of electronic improv, on the edge between hypnosis and noise. two of these sessions became our second release, *dressed like a bubblegum*, raising the interest of people like surgeon, perc, and peter van hoesen , his remix for mondkopfs *ease your pain* receiving praise from ancient methods as well as labels downwards and avian. but somaticae had already moved forward, and in a matter of a few weeks, he was sending us what quickly and easily took shape as *catharsis*, a ten track piece which is to be the first album release on in paradisum.

another exclusive cooperation of internasjonal / full pupp and friends. this time we took three tracks from the second album of italys fine cosmic/kraut duo crimea x and bjorn torske wich was originally released on hell yeah and gave them an extra special prins thomas diskomiks twist. the result is as for me, especially convincing in dream is gone which almost sounds like a warm late 80s club version of a new order track. which, again, hopefully says something about its future fanboy / fangirl potential. so simple and so nice!

at the edge of failure a door to greater understanding and discovery is sometimes opened. some of mankinds greatest discoveries and experiences took place by sheer coincidence or even by mistake. from the big bang, to penicillin, or the invisible light we call x-rays, chance and human error has played a big part of our history and evolution as a species - can we really afford to be perfect when we owe our mistakes and weaknesses so much?

betsy just stood there with her mouth wide open. those two guys where fencing each other up and down the stairway. they took 20 steps, back to back, then they turned around, smoothly from the hip, firing magazines at each other. then 10 steps and then 5, both where still standing. they beat each other to a pulp until the blood came out and then until no blood came out and still none of them hit the ground. betsy did not dare to move, even when the duelists finally went away in opposite directions she still stood there like a curtain rod. she cautiously moved her eyes to the left, cautiously meved her eyes to the right, everything seemed to be safe. then there was this flicker of light in betsys sunglasses. they came back.

i had dinner with breach in london and he told me: hey, i have a track that is really dirtybird. i would put it out but its really sounding right for you guys. i took this with a grain of salt but then i heard lets get hot and i found out he was right. it has got the swagger and the sound. it makes girls grind their asses into boys crotches on the dancefloor. perfect. signed. so i then asked him to make something even more sexual, thinking it would be ages before i got something back. 10 days later the a-side came back to me as a 2 minute clip while i was on the train to warehouse project in manchester. i liked it so much that i edited it on the train to stretch it out to 5 minute. as expected, it slayed the room and the final version breach has delivered is one of the best records of the year in my opinion. with the simple title of jack you can see for yourself when you play it. this is the real deal. love, vonstroke

combining his heart-piercing songwriter side with a skyscraper of soaring electronics , he takes the listener surfing on an emotional sine wave, an electronic soul testament that earmarks him out as the successor to the thrones long since vacated by massive attack and the aphex twin... two years after his debut album took uk bass culture down previously unimagined roads of introspection, james blake returns with the epic * overgrown*, an incredible album that sees james growing as a singer and songwriter while at the same time returning to the brain melting electronic perfection of his early releases on hemlock and hessle, moving way beyond any post-dubstep pigeonholes to include stunning reinterpretations of both hip-hop and house

hello guys and gals, its been exactly one year since the first release on olsen records, so i suppose its time for a new one, now together with studio buddy lindstrøm. >inspector norse< took me to a lot of cheesy places with lots of cash, and i expect nothing less with this new one called... >lanzarote<! (pronounthed with a lithp and a finger thnap) the working title for this was >cowley<, lets see if any of you can figure out why :)... b-side remix by dj-turned-mathematician diskjokke turns down the gayness, but keeps most of the elements for a version even the most serious of the deep house mafia can play. yørs trüly, tødd tërje (and silent partner häanz-peter)

on the occasion of the sixth record store day in april, sonar kollektiv releases for the first time a limited 300 copy special edition in celebration of the day, the vinyl and the record store. and it wouldnt be sonar kollektiv wouldnt we be treated with a very special goodie: the new shooting stars and new signings of the label, paskal and urban absolutes took a classic out of the extensive repertoire of the label to task, that night by jazzanova from 2001.

call it whatever you want. we think of it simply as techno music. deep, raw, mystical and industrialesque music that makes you think about your desires and gives you the illusion of clearing away time and space. having lived in almost all corners of the world, it took nothing more than finding themselves in berlin, a dose of random chance and a barside conversation for irakli and yacoub to figure out they had similar views about music - and so, i/y was born. i/y 001 is a three track intense journey into the depths of techno.

it has been a memorable year for the luv shack. release after release, props after props, watching the guys build on a solid foundations and take it up a notch each time. if you listen to their first release (again), and then this new release, you will see just how far they have travelled in such a small time frame. and yes, it started with a couple of mini compilations and eps to see what the reaction would be. the reaction was good, actually no, the reaction was great, the right jocks took to the guys and the early eps and hence since, the luv shack posse have been locked up in a studio ever since. they have been productive, and more to the point, excelling in that production. it is going to be a brilliant 2013.

while channel x took us on a full-length musical journey through their very own ‘wonderland in september, this follow-up remix package guarantees to drag you even deeper into the metaphorical rabbit hole thanks to mind-altering reworks by doctor dru, robosonic, nico stojan and our competition winners, juicy jay & sh.

bring u up originally appeared on romans blackmale label in 1995 as a rumbling slice of new jersey garage complete with gospel samples and romanthony collaborator the trojan horse. it was a bit of a cult favourite with underground heads like dj deep. it wasnt until roman completely re-produced and re-sang the song in 2000 that it fully took on anthem status. out went the heavy kicks and hypnotic moods and in came james brown horn stabs and a live beat that sounded like bernard purdie had joined him for the session (the drums were actually provided by roman himself). the result was an instant club hit with everyone from pete tong to francois kevorkian that reached (a very respectable 74) in the uk national charts. on this 12 inch deetrons takes the funk vibe of romans 2000 version and toughens it up for todays dancefloors, lee webster adds a monster baseline and some serious beats. on the flip-side the original blackmale version is re-issued on vinyl for the first time as is an unreleased dj friendly edit of the 2000 version done by kevin mckay.

often overlooked in american techno history are the weird and wonderful flavours to have emanated from the mid-west over the years. no two finer exponents have there been than minnesotas paul birken and freddy fresh. their contributions date back to the early nineties when freddy was exploring the possibilities of extreme techno (via labels like labworks, experimental and his own analog) - an activity that paul took up a while later after debuting on woody mcbrides renegade communique label in 1996. teaming up for the first of two collaborations on this 12 inch, paul and freddy open with >the fate of thirty eight< - a belting slab of analogue techno, where machines shriek and squawk like possessed animals on the loose.

thank god they didnt wait as long as i:cube to make their new album, it took only 4 years! but now, it is ready. the new zombie zombie album is called rituels d un nouveau monde and will be released as by versatile records as 12 inch vinyl lp. the band have been touring quite a lot, expanding their killer reputation playing live and stopped in the joakim studio, who produced their new album. the album release will be followed shortly by the release of the second single from the album >illumination<.

the inspiration for this ep came from a trip the two producers took to zug island- a polluted toxic metal factory isle on the detroit river between detroit and windsor, canada. the sounds within this record are intended to sonically personify the environment of zug island and the harmful impact it currently has on the river, wild life,and humans residing there!

after tom tragos use me again took dance floors across the world by a storm this summer, rise up / sky high is his follow up single which should fire up the crowd during the winter.

live percussionist turned dj/producer, rafael moraes, first made a name for himself in the brazilian house scene when he took command of the radio program beats eldorado a platform upon which he was able to showcase his aptitude for mixing genres of modern electronic music.

to do things, that are not quite usual, free from standards and away from drawer think is here the topic of the next sono vivo catalog number. there are every time again different >things<, that influence the emotions and the life of one person. and that is exactly what wigbert wants to express with his new single >things<. the focus of things is the acid similar moogbassline surrounded by percussive and drum-like elements, which produce a special groove. slowly and full of energy one increase after the other devolopes during the track, until it reaches its peak after the break. souvenir and freebase records artist chris wood took the original track and created a nice tech house remix quite to his style. with a mixture of techno and tech house, old school and new school the topic >things< is brought expertly to the point and you can find it to the peaktime on the dancefloor for sure!

returning after some time off, two dogs in a house took to a secluded studio in stockholm sweden during spring 2012 to record while on the road. here we have the result of uninhibited access to machines with no time constraints and no distractions from the outside world. this freedom allowed the duo to expand upon their ideas of deconstructing conventional song structure and harnessing the power of what immediately surrounded them in the moment. two full side tracks that will absolutely crush and/or isolate anyone who crosses through the sonic pathway of them. perfect sounds for the apocalyptic world we live in.

2012 repress release from chicago artist spekter (sistrum). he passed this track onto theo on a compilation cd and theo was hooked straight away and took it for release on sound signature. massive tune - check! (booth sides are the same track)

over the course of a year, keith fullerton whitman performed a piece of live electronic music a few dozen times entitled >generator<. the debut was given in san francisco at root stratas on land festival at cafe du nord on september 19th, 2009 … over the months that followed stagings took place in venues ranging from flooded basements to festival stages in baltimore, boston, brooklyn, chicago, easthampton, iowa city, jamaica plain, northampton, raleigh, saint louis, san francisco, somerville, & washington d.c.

nice price deal !!! next question of time strike, a bit more melodic

the mysterious zohar – nobody knows who he is, but what we do know is that his music is truly remarkable. we first took notice of him for his great records on the equally fantastic label quintessentials. his love for philly soul samples is one of the reasons why he is such a perfect match for tenderpark since we are big philly lovers ourselves. brooklyn 9.30 am and dog day are full of wonderful soul references and so is the drei farben house edit of brooklyn. another deep quality outing from tenderpark. supported by alex agore, roman rauch, ivano tetelepta, skipson, borrowed identity, adryiano, ynk

alberto tolo & matthew skud: ...in this ep we followed up our sound project that continues to evolve in the european underground trip, to complete this project and we finalized to make it took about a month, we have added almost all the material that we collected along our path...

a few years ago i took a journey to europe searching for a new sound. people along the journey had been telling me about this guy from tropea, italy called dj steve (named after his favorite musician, stevie wonder).
he is a butcher there by day, but at night he is the dj at a club called casablanca. i made my way to this tiny town in the south of italy and found dj steve. his 12 hour dj sets opened my eyes. this guy was the real deal. he was playing dubplates, vinyl, cassettes, and reel-to-reels. all special edits he had done over the years. i couldnt believe what i was hearing.

kormacs latest release for scribble records sees him teaming up with old pal mc little tee for the ska driven >superhero< while the guitar and string laden >another screen< is a collaboration with literary great irvine welsh (trainspotting, the acid house, skagboys). >another screen< came about when kormac turned up on welshs edinburgh doorstep with the track written especially for him. rather than take out a restraining order the generous author took him in, fed and watered him and sent him home with the track complete. the result is a double header of contrasting styles that prove kormac is on a creative high.

originally released on bushwacka!s olmeto records imprint in june 2011, west side became an instant anthem last summer. inspired by the hedonistic euphoria of ibiza, the original track took the shape of a massive dancefloor weapon with its memorable chord progression and high-impact bass. now, just in time for this summer season, tronic have licensed west side for a special remix package from christian smith & wehbba and bushwacka!s new just be pseudonym.

(sigha / peter van hoesen rmxs) rmxs for phases big binary opposition, which took the techno scene by storm.

this release should have an all natural ingedients sticker on it. all sounds you hear are from traditional instruments - recorded on various occasions in ivory coast. it took mr raoul k quite some time to get his hand on all the raw materia he needed. he then cut it in bits and pieces and rearranged the sonic puzzle to a slowly evolving track. join his journey that starts in the cold of a desert at night. the temperature rises with the sun. when things heat up too much, you have to take a rest in the shadows beneath a tree. meet some fiends, talk and relax - but dont get lost. keep you groove alive and head toward your destination. choose vinyl, please!!!

the final track of this release is an unusual track with at least an unusual name intelligent gum, which took a worthy area of the second side of vinyl. first of all, this track is remarkable duration of sound. despite the fact that it’s track so long lasting, but this it wants to listen again and again! it is quite hypnotic. soft as wadding and tasty as a chocolate with a delicious taste of liquor. in the course of listening you will find a lot of mystery and surprises for you, just enjoying the taste of chocolate with liquor.

2012 repress !! after john roberts became the first american artist on the dial records imprint in 2008, it took almost two years to finish his first album. glass eights debuts a sound impeccably curated and delicately enigmatic, john roberts recreates reale house music.

repress... spheras winter is getting hot. its even the sphera vinyl debut for simone tavazzi (trapez ltd, material, saved, 303lovers) who gets remixed by sleepless siwell and hector couto (rising music, brise, viva music).

finally the remixes of the celebrated jonsson/alter mod album is here – featuring no less than minilogue, donato dozzy and dorisburg (half of swedish duo genius of time). my god, that took some time. but no harm is done. all remixes has some kind uplifting and sunny trance mode to them, so as it turns out, this is actually the prefect spring release.minilogue starts out with the track kyrka 2.0 and ads both speed and length. donato takes on the track acapellan and does everything right. keeping the beautiful vocals of the original, donato adds bass line and new drums. the ep closes with another swedish contribution. alexander berg aka dorisburg from duo genius of time reworks djup house, and does it well. a solid bass line keeps us grounded to the dance floor while dreamy melodies and harmonies gently lift our serotonin levels. enjoy! before leaving you to the music we would like to thank minilogue, donato dozzy, dorisburg and last but not least, henrik jonsson and joel alter

aleph04 comes with three special reinterpretations of the labels first three eps. mano le tough is first in line. his remix of > flowers on fire< from aleph01 takes the originals colorful and spaced out vibes and puts them into a little more dancefloor friendly context, with a big 808 booming away and the swirls of the original synthline driving the track forward. mano has been a big supporter of the label right from the start and his releases on permanent vacation, buzzin fly or internasjonal have been turning heads quite a lot, so its an honour to have him on board. the second remix is by wasted gaze. this newcomer from vilnius / lithuania delivers an amazing version of >port hope< , taken from aleph02. a powerful, 2step / garage inspired beat sets the pace, while glowing pads, a super deep bass and enigmatic vocals take care of the rest. watch this guy, his untitled states ep on partyzanai is one of the most intersting and exciting records in a long time. the last track is a remix by aera aka m50 from chicago, who, quite fittingly, took care of this spaced out take on whats my name again? from aleph03. this one is for the heads, a special gem that will work magic in the early morning hours

we have decided to publish these tracks as our first release because they took inspiration from the two words label name: eleusína and recreations. thinking about that ancient mysteries and hoping they could survive till nowadays and in the future as a aid of our poor life helped us a lot in composing these tracks.
the two track ep was compost almost interely by machines with a little computer aid. cause we are only humans and conditioned by our fears and weaknesses, we have decided to make them almost mono tracks to maximize the transfer achievement to vinyl. have we took the wrong way? we do not know, but we keep some time to reflect about that and find the best balance between stereo and mono that fits our soul.
here we are, is not time for words right now, let the sounds speak.
