a ship called misterio takes us on a journey to the darker and harder spaces of noon records. where the last releases have been more dreamy and funky, this ep is nothing but techno at its finest. a ship called misterio takes off from the very depths of dissonant frequencies and builds up into a massive rolling drum pattern, distorted hooks and a hi-hat thunderstorm. be warned: this track doesn t show any mercy. a true peak-time record and nothing but dynamite for the dance floor.

keeping the momentum going seems fairly easy for barac as he unveils the long awaited second ep on his moment imprint. last years have seen barac evolve in a very lucrative way, yet only his best productions seem to be making their way top. it is clearly the case for this second ep which features two of his solo masterpieces. moment of clarity is electronic poetry at its best. barac delivers the proverbial summer sunrise directly into your speakers and ultimately into your heart. this track is meant to never be forgotten. without changing the soundscape too much barac has a slightly different approach on side b. things get a little more serious with sun & following being driven by a catchy bass and a haunting atmosphere. this tune is as bomb in the night as the other one is in the daylight.

2015 repress. its been four years since my last own ep on stockholm ltd. the main reason for this is that i have been surrounded by music that has inspired me much more than my own. this ep was written and produced with strict narrow frames and a huge amount of frustration. i was tired of waiting for the inspiration to kick in, then suddenly it appeared with a strength that i havent felt for long time. im now curious for more. while sketching the title track, >wyatt arp<, i couldnt get detroit legend, terrence dixon, out of my mind. terrence is a long time hero of mine, and an artist that always stays on the true side of what we do while most of us occasionally leave our paths. i had to ask him to do a rework. / par grindvik

he is young, he is from bulgaria and he has a big passion for music. having previously released music only on his own label, this is his first venture into the outside world. genial gladly welcomes on board stefan dichev.
his desert brothers ep, consists of 3 tracks, hide, withdrawal and, of course, desert brothers. it’s not easy to classify the ep in a specific music genre. all 3 tracks have a very distinctive drums programming and groovy bass. they could be easily played in a big club during the peak time of a set or at a dark basement during the after hours. they have this strange deepness that calms you down but at the same time the first kick after the break easily gets your fist up.
here at the genial headquarters, we always try to find the balance between things, people, relationships, music and maybe stefan dichev has just done that with his desert brothers ep… he found the balance!

here comes the final chapter in androids three laws trilogy vinyl series. in this third part, the label elegantly moves away from its past and makes way for new theme, new sounds, and new breed of artists that have been closely representing this label for the past year.

we started the classic series featuring tracks that we love, bought, played out and which we have the feeling more people should know about them. for this third, it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from kalamazoo, michigan (city right in the middle between chicago and detroit): jay denham aka fade ii black. his style is a unique blend of these two worlds - chicago house and detroit techno, with a kalamazoo touch. he stays true to the underground, makes the music for the art of it and always remembers where he comes from.

up first is gigolo, a spare and weird house cut with sine waves and random claps, hunched drums and trippy synth lines. it s a unique track made in a unique way and will lead to plenty of freaky dance floor moments, for sure. co. art is a whacked out techno cut with slap-funk claps, blistering and blistered synth lines and a rugged bit of bass underlining it all. the track is cavernous and metallic, empty and distant as if it somehow survived a nuclear blast. on the flip, alzheimer is a slow and gurgling, swampy techno number with broken drums and crawling synths that sound like their batteries have run down. icy, watery melodies eventually rain down, but the track remains resolutely eerie. last of all, fabric is another decaying track with subtle, heavily filtered synths and drums all making for a minimal groove that is barely there.

hessismore are a 7 person musicans collective based in new york and copenhagen around musical mastermind mikkel hess. they released their gomma debut ep last july. strange, beautiful music from outta space. balinese marimbas, african drums, spooky voices - great new music. now here come the remixes. dimitri from paris did an effective, supersexy disco stomper. keeping a lot from the original version. the crazy voices, the punk funk feel, the moody, new wave atmopshere. but now its a club bomb. then williamsburgs hidden underground star lorne dune reworked the other song. in a more edgy, distorted way. beautiful. then you have a version by munichs pollyester. the former bass player of munk now has gone solo. she does this kind of naive, early 80ies, powerdisco you could hear at clubs like the loft oder dj harvey playing. orgastic hardcore disco rock

2015 re-issueing slightly remixed chicago essential super classics - must have!)

the homesick team have broken into marquis hawkes secret vault and dug up four great edits that have had great responses from his public during the past few months. now available on a solid 180g records meticulously mastered to sound as awesome and modern as they were when they first got released.

kiko navarro has released on some pretty impressive labels. nite grooves, third ear and even king street sounds to name a few! which makes us very excited to have him as part of plastik people. kiko delivers us some straight up dance floor house killers, first track, bates dance has infectious strings combined with moody drums & rhythms that are reminiscence of early point g sounds that came out on basic recordings back in the day, kiko then follows up with a groovy hip shaking track called camon yo! which will certainly move any floor.

opening their doors every saturday for mind-altering shock treatment, power station has been giving their raging punters a potent dose of megawatt reality. their curatorial expertise has established an institution that will now extend the mythical energy generated with a record label in the form of annual limited 12inch compilations, grouping tracks that have already become the club s signature tunes. resident, booker and co-founder kris baha finds himself on both sides of the inaugural disc, with the ball of confusion solo production something something, and again as heavy concern in collaboration with otologic s nick murray, a name synonymous with the melbourne club circuit being one quarter of the animals dancing massive. young gun disrute captures the optimum warm up set with the shape shifting slow burner ka-bu while scene veteran and haul music boss mike callander discovers a new lab mutation of sci-fi soundtrack, damaged funk and cerebral house

finally, leftback s own dudley strangeways rounds off the ep is his usual style, which cannot be described as anything less than true quality. as ever, black key have excelled in delivering a package which ticks all the right boxes, this is a release which will undoubtedly appeal to a diverse range of house music fans who appreciate a rather large nod to the underground. vinyl only.

finale sessions is really pleased to launch new series finale sessions limited with berlin up and coming act arcarsenal. duo comprised of alan mathias and etienne dauta, both founders of bass cadet records and its dedicated vinyl store located in the heart of the german capital, they are also active members of the large underground quality family. arcarsenal have already started to establish themselves as proponent of a crossover sound, mixing many influences from jazz, house, ambient to dub and techno.

were so excited to be the guys that get to deliver you this guys debut release. luca murgia has a sound all his own he really like tom toms, he likes spacey flourishes, and overall he likes to deliver tracks with mobile electroy grooves married to the stability of house. the thing that really makes him special to us is the naturalness of feeling he achieves in his productions he has a neatness to his grooves everything lines up so the body can move freely and the dancer be in a state of flow. all four tracks on this ep have real singularity of intent in their sounds and rhythms but vary dramatically in intensity.

stepping up for the second ep on brame & hamos own imprint splendor & squalour is top boy hamo with his debut solo ep -the cotton club. with his partner brame he has already released staggering eps on dirt crew recordings and dam swindles own heist recordings. a fierce rise in the deep house community for sure! we already had a small taste of hamo s solo productions on the clockwerk ep that was released beginning of this year as the first ep on splendor & squalour. now we are giving you a full 5 tracker with a remix from box aus holz/ torben boy kickflip mike. the ep kicks off with title track - cotton club - a jazzy deep house jam, keeping the hip hop vibe present. up next is -wonce- which is a little bit more on the melodic side. we would also like to welcome more of our sligo family to the label with this side up, the hip hop trio is featured as third on the a side with the straight hip hop track in control. on to the b side we have the brilliant kickflip mike adding a much clubbier vibe to -wonce- a real early mornings bomb. to close the ep hamo has given us black lodge, a dusty house groover with delightful hi-hats and very clever sampling going on as in all his works, solo or with his homey brame.

for more than a thousand days and nights, nico stojan tapped away at what is now before us as ‘twisted manners’ - his debut album telling stories in sound that are both electronic in nature and human in touch. each organic sounding track on the release, including their neighbouring interludes, graze on the moments, people and cultures which have encompassed the albums journey and brought it forward to what it is today. these inspirations have merged from moody mornings in foreign lands (‘blue hour’) to his love affair with the elements of jazz (‘tortured paper’), to the breezy ways of the pacific island people he connects with so much (‘maori girl’). these diverse cultures and the passing musicians who have importantly contributed to the essence of the album have built strong yet invisible strings with a myriad of voices and instruments which weave throughout the music giving us a piece of work that is both textured in flavour and rich in motive. twisted manners is a clean example of this - house music whose soft open spaces and gentle beats sway easily through analog sounds coming from string quartets, saxophonists and double bass players to name a few. these collaborations and stojan’s guiding ear will walk you right into the dreamy spaces and faraway places of his travels without you breaking a sweat. seasoned with moments stolen under the fading light of day, long trips into the beautiful nothingness of his eclectic surroundings and respect for electronic music that is both timeless and sincere, ursl records is delighted to present stojan s debut album, ‘twisted manners’.

first ep of hamburg-based psychedelic voodoohop dada-pop superduo for doumen records. on+brr are known for releases on felix kubins gagarin records, martin hossbach label, hafenschlamm/freiheit&roosen as well as for their more than intense live performances in places like berghain, nation of gondwana, fusion, golden pudel etc. and last but not least for their kraniche b.d. elbbrücken club, which is fueling the scene in hamburg with their very own take on how a performance space should be like for more than two years now already and it might well be the most crazy & cozy place you will find in hamburg right now. to round everything off nicely, artwork was done by cheap art pioneer and close on+brr friend patrick farzar. a must have to show off at your next afterhour gig as well as to impress your artist friends when having them over for tea

we here at wph are not ones to celebrate each and every significant number in our history. we do not even consider numbers to be that significant. but what we do believe is that every story has its ending and that every ending should come with a bang. and so we have decided that the regular wph series and the coloured vinyl-only series will come to an end together with one last release. we breing you a collection of three of our most wanted tracks with a little bonus thrown in ... we suggest you go really oldskool and buy double copies of this one, because you will want to play these back to back!

the summer of 2015 sees gruuv celebrate 5 years in the game. we have put together a brand new compilation featuring 25 of our favourite artists, which will be released as 6 x 4 track vinyl releases every two weeks throughout the summer and features artwork from the renowned victoria topping. each ep will be released on limited edition vinyl, with a free poster and sticker inside, uniquely stamped from 001 - 500. thanks to everyone involved, all around the world. music provides the greatest unity. it strips away indifferences, supersedes language, nationality, culture, all defining human factors, and leaves one common thing we can all interpret, sound.

the second release on modern cathedrals includes an original mix by altstadt echo supplemented with remixes crafted by donor, luigi tozzi, and asop. the inclusion of donor’s remix represents a continued effort to link together the detroit and brooklyn scenes, while the luigi tozzi remix connects modern cathedrals to the ghastly, dark styles of techno that italian artists have become so respected for. as a core member of the modern cathedrals team and a primary force behind the label’s event series, asop’s remix is the very first public release of work by this incredible new detroit-based artist. but while the artist names change from record to record, the philosophy does not. we continue in a desperate attempt to generate meaning during the short spasm of a lifetime we are given in a world that seems to conspire to prevent this effort’s realization. this situation might be inescapable, but through the rejection of complacency and dogma, we can approach our end with the bitter comfort that we were at least willing to be honest about our situation.

you knew this would happen! as purveyors of early rave sounds with a serious dose of talent and nostalgia, minimum syndicat would logically team up with head honcho um-welt to deliver an outstanding split ep that will go down in rod history!
on a side, paris based combo drops an authentic anthem of their trademark: *antiworlds* mixes a fat compressed techno kick to ravey strings while a sample taken from mobys classic *thousand* cut will lead you to ecstasy. beastly!
on the flipside, umwelt strikes back with a monster of a track. brainwashing *otsha4trcs2xox* brings some old school rave vibes over a powerful, rolling and infectious rhythm a la plastikman. tune!
this is not the first time both artists appear together on a same release: they have been featured twice on ms02 and polybius trax 02! so you might know the score now. succeeding to the collectible *parc expo (live version)* limited split 10 inch, rave or die 04 offers two live original cuts for smoking warehouses.

amir alexander was one of plan b recordings’ first recruits. from his first submission, we knew his sound was perfect for plan b recordings. “sonic subversion” was released as a digital ep in 2010 and now receives a proper vinyl release. we feel these tracks sound even better now. their content is as timeless as ever. they have been slightly tweaked and re-touched by amir for this release, making them perhaps even more sonically powerful than the originals. three tracks of bubbly, banging goodness from one of our earliest comrades.

limited information on this release, it contains two super edits that have been heavily road tested on a certain soundsytem that is currently doing the rounds. not much information beyond that but the music speaks for itself. slow mo with impact and energy. more soon.

as the year progresses, apollonia keeps up its steady release schedule with a delightful new ep from swiss alchemist, alci. the young producer has already made an impact with some tre cool releases with labels like robsoul, owned by paris rudeboy, phil weeks. now we have this sublime three-tracker landing on apollonia and its serious…the ep gets moving with a track called * garden of buddha* which is a perfect example of alcis ability to cook up strange sounds while keeping it groovy and dance floor-friendly. * all bun* follows with more of the same, original flavours, minimal composition, with deep, catchy rhythms and vocal clips. * traveling soul* closes things up neatly, giving us an enchanting collection of effects with a pulsating bassline that will have you gripped from the moment it appears. another step forward for alci and another diamond release from the apollonia team

the bush is a homage to the place where i have lived for the last decade (askew road). the askew road itself is slowly changing so i wanted to document all the places that play a big part in mine and my families lives before they eventually get sold for more flats or tescos. first up was peckings studio 1 record shop, which has been on this stretch of road since the 1960s. next up is the mighty sun pub which became a local talking point when they sold the place because a sign sat in the window that announced this bup is close.

timmy p has been releasing music since 2010, but releases on esteemed labels such as local talk and dirt crew have really made him catch the attention of the wider public and industry big hitters such as steve lawler, darius syrossian, sidney charles and waze & odyssey. timmy now steps up to the plate for belfast s seven music. the strong advice ep is some of his finest work to date. from the disco infused title track, through the vibey slug life to the moodier bla bla and all rounded of by one of the uk s hottest new names on the scene, montel on the remix.

for the latest slice of magic on the evermore impressive fina white, the organ grinder, aka cayne ramos, continues with a prolific run of releases which has planted his expansive productions straight in the bags of discerning club commanders like move d, brawther, and laurent garnier. showcasing a broad, tasteful musical pallet, studied studio skills, and a sharp ear in the mix, the daily struggles ep is a fine arrangement of house and techno that will find itself at home on the uncompromising warehouse floors, the sun drenched courtyards, and in the darker, seedier moments of the night, when only the strong remain, and the weak have long since departed

it’s not every day you find a keyboard player with chops like john camp. plucked from the same minneapolis jazz vine that grew such deliciously ripened talents as no regular play s greg paulus and aaron james (gregory porter band), we met camp for the first time at the marcy hotel. initially adding his signature touch to other’s crew love records and last year dropping an incredi- ble ep on have a killer time, the mistral ep marks his first official crew love release!
