teng launched in 2012 with akrasounds vol.1 & 2 by label head nick woolfson under his akra guise. picking up support along the way from the likes of chicago damn, delano smith, will saul, 6th borough project and dj deep. this stands testament to the high quality and attention to detail instilled in the label from its initial movement. here the label steams in with more solid material to put it on the map with a phenomenal package from clone / rush hour artist neville watson, whos trippy, analogue, acidic house cuts have earned him a highly praised reputation within the underground.

nearly 10 years on from it’s last release, phantom audio relaunches on march 11th 2013¬†and what better way to start than to go back to the very beginning! ¬†originally released on dec 6th 1999, phantom force went on to become one of the legendary dnb anthems, still being heard in sets today. fracture tears it apart and takes it right into 2013 with a mammoth half-stepping groove, led by those familiar pounding stabs, nervous strings and teasing break edits. digital & spirit go to work on backlash themselves, harking back to an era where the beats where dirty and the mood was heavy for a trademark slice of sub-heavy organised breakbeat chaos.

the bomb that should have dropped way back when. after a career spanning almost two decades dj overdose debuts on creme with his first full length album, upon which we remark with carefully considered understatement: a veritable tour de resistance in film noir electronics, bizarro world is a dank and dark alley made flesh

first pressing in dark red vinyl! in remarkably short time, van bonn has developed a well-deserved reputation as a forward-thinking dub music producer. he is tying up electronic listening music with dance music structures for the german label telrae and trapez since 2011, but his newest invention van bonn01 is another step forward. van bonn records now for the first time provides him with a platform, that is his own. it is a sound laboratory pushing his ideas as well as giving him the possibility to feature like minded people. the first edition on vinyl, comes in dark red with a nice artwork. gradient (cph dub) shows a new side with van bonn, expressing a certain form of industrial & romantic privacy in a very radical way. his epic 12 minute track explores the time and space continuum in ways of symmetry. this is a perfect extension of what we know from various dub techno productions of the past. rich filtered delays balanced with a monotony of a mighty & distant beat, makes it an hypnotic piece of music. gradient in its original version is the more hardish and forceful..companion of the a-side, being more raw an direct. van bonn uses here a lot of fx sounds to build a bubble which perfectly embeds the stomping machine liked beat. the >do not resist the beat< owner milton bradley and artist on prologue (and more) has delivered a remix of >gradient< in his genuine style avoiding commercialism and creating his own atmospheric, claustrophobic, cinematic style of techno. listen here to his remix for van bonn.

we think releasing a 12 inch is a great way to celebrate los grandes first anniversary. and we are more than glad of having future feelings, heion, ltj and dynamicron for this first 12 inch ep.

this is the sound of the future four. led by andy meecham, the brains behind the emperor machine, bizarre inc and chicken lips amongst many others, and captures the excitement, diversity, strangeness and harmony of the uk underground sound of the early 90s. we are talking about the sparse dub mix on side 2 of the 12 inch single, machines making mistakes and changing the course of history, the dark side of the rave away from the neon and the white gloves, future four points the way to the dimly lit corner of the dancefloor and makes you move. after a recent discovery of boxes of old s950 and mpc60 floppy discs full of sound sets dating back to the early 90s, all three tracks have been produced solely on the mpc 3000 in staffordshire, and in perfect unison of north and south, mixed by erol alkan in london.

soulmusik ist zeitlos heißt es, sie schafft es die höhen und tiefen des menschlichen gefühlshaushalts auszuloten und abzubilden, wie es kein anderes musikalisches genre kann. sie hat sich in den über 50 jahren ihres bestehens nur durch den technischen fortschritt der produktionsmöglichkeiten verändert. ihr ewiges thema, die freuden und leiden des alltags, änderten sich hingegen nie. warum auch? wer also bei al & the teenagers mit dem lästigen retro-begriff kommt, verkennt das genre soulmusik. das sich al & the teenagers dabei an der blütezeit der musik orientieren, ist nur folgerichtig

every place, in which the human being lives, imposes you to choose. we are continually bombed by voices that try to check us and more our mind digs in the depth of own heart, more we hear the necessity to go over the barriers that are built. this way we are and so we will stay. we walk in a crowd of voices and we are continually looking for a something that can maintain us hungry and rebellious against our bossy ego.

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

after the success of the first three volumes, musica sol y mar are back with a fourth installment of balearic sound for 2013. the album contains tracks such as in alto mare from sultry italian singer loredana berte who delivers a killer piano-led groove that has been a summer favourite in the mediterranean since its release in the early 1980s, the dope slo-mo cosmic groove of my baby my by us soul singer sue ann cardwell which was a big hit on the white island as well as being popular with the afro and cosmic djs in italy.

26 year old julien perez was the former frontman of french band adam kesher (2007 - 2011). he writes and sings now in french. his songs are urban, ethereal, nocturnal soundscapes, infused with a sweaty variete touch. the way he builds his tracks is tense and sensual, reminding of christophe and la perversita lyrics, as much as of border community label and invisible conga people productions. perez will release his first ep in february 2013 on dirty. it has been produced by pilooski (discodeine, tristesse contemporaine), already supported by laurent garnier and tim sweeney.

the titles present on mosso004 both simultaneously develop the different, yet ever so complimentary, aspects of alejandros production. on one hand, his signature rhythmics make for some all important body fodder, while his honed synth programation gives way to the most reflective moments. some traits that are always recognizable in his live performance as well...

matlocks finest rhythm plate resurface brandishing a new label in pressed for time, and what better way to inaugurate it than revisiting one of their key tracks. released back in 2002 on the mantis label run by atjazz, >lean part 2< was a wonderfully sleazy slab of deepness notable for the lascivious vocal hook that hung slinkily over the production throughout. it still sounds superb some 13 years on and is backed with an unreleased version that was done in the same period, along with deliciously freaky new >leaner< mix from the pair

named in homage to the series of collectable football cards from the 1970s, the rothmans label follows the inaugural mario kempes release with another long-haired icon being given his dues in the form of the harald toni schumacher release, complete with another four tracks of chugging techno-disco. emotional responses timothy j fairplay kicks things off with *off the rails*, an expectedly dark and tense piece of carpenter-esque synth, while lwe writer per bojsen-moller delivers the atmospheric techno of *staying late*, whose rippling analogue bassline gives way to an unexpectedly funky breakdown. on the flip, steve cooks *noahs arp* takes things a balearic house direction with its thick, filtered analogue textures adding some psychedelic colour to its mid-tempo grooves, while emile strunzs *magnetic* adds some acid flavour to its low-swung, vocoder saturated italo swagger.

nach vier alben, die beim legendären john-zorn-label tzadik erschienen, fallen einem bei koby israelite begriffe wie eigenwillig , genial , produktiv , avantgardistisch und passt in keine schublade ein. aber letztlich ist der in israel geborene südlondoner - dessen musikalische reise vom klassischen klavier über den jazz zu speed-metal-drumming bis zum akkordeon führte - ständig auf der suche nach dem perfekten sound. und hierbei spielt es keine rolle, ob dieser von black sabbath, beethoven, bluegrass oder den rumänischen roma inspiriert ist. der sound ist dabei von eindringlicher schönheit, unterstrichen von der schwermütig klingenden armenischen duduk und einem wehmütigen akkordeon, und verbindet die liebe koby israelites zur musik des balkans und dem blues. jenseits des kantigen zusammentreffens von stilen und einflüssen - das album will nicht jedem und immer gefallen - findet man sich in einer welt wieder, die von einer einzigartigen musikalischen vision zusammengehalten wird, die gleichermaßen mutig wie kräftig, fremd wie süß ist.

meet stabber, aka stafano tartaglini from laquila, italy. after doing nice work with luckybeard records, here stabber graces vinyl for the first time on halo cyan.
his huh! ep is tittilating yet terrifying, a collection of razor-sharp club tracks that bring the party as much as they terrorize it. title track huh! begins with a smattering of innocuous hi-hats and claves that quickly give way to a thick fog of giallo-style paranoia. voices grab your attention, leaving you to look over your shoulder before being overtaken by a wave of sinister, gleaming melodies riding twisty, mechanically precise breaks.

persnickety sounds is here to funk-ti-fy your world!in this era of nü-disco, space disco, cosmic disco, disco house and shit, there must be a beacon of quality to light the way and lead the faithful back to a place where good grooves matter and realness is holding court. let the labels fall and just get it movin.

one more heavy hitter on credo, and this time we could even say two tracks that form an ep as strond as the so far most sold credo-release from 2007 - bullet in your heart. the name tells already some connection to australia and indeed the basic idea came up during alex tour down under in fall 2012 where he played three cities within three days and a total of 9h playtime for which he travelled 64h in total. sydney acid is the main track of the ep, no doubt and hard to describe. it is a pure, driven technotrack with a fierce, no blubby, but very powerful acid bassline aiming at riots on the dancefloor. melbourne dub tells exactly what the track is all about and by the way featuring the sound of the local traffic lights that made alex thinking about creating some tracks related to it.

move d sureshot !!! coming straight 2013 out of the frank music stable: jeremiah all the way from vienna!
