if vocals of 90s acts like bjork and massive attack, to the choral of female crooners that came out of scandinavia in the 2000s hit a sweet spot, than the voice of gry bagoien will be a welcomed sound. here for scissors & thread, with the help of francis harris and jordan lieb (aka black light smoke), the danish singer debuts on the american label under her own name (rather than using her known gry alias). she delivers a four-track ep of smokey, abstract house music and throughout phantom power bagoien s voice sounds as though it s being projected through an oversized telephone speaker, either in a jazz club next to miles davis, a studio full of deep efdemin arrangements, in the wilderness at a swedish festival or lost in a cosmos of reverb and delay with fever ray.

an epic acid attack with a cheeky vocal from back in the day by……???

cyber dance records are back on the attack with a fresh release from the legendary perseus traxx aka nigel rogers, a 4-track ep entitled after recent scientific developments an apparent horizon . its a firmly machine-based and totally jam-packed affair reflecting diverse sounds from the uk s own rich history of electronic dance music, with elements from the classic warp -deep space sound- prominent as much as the more usual 303-jacking acid house grooves in the vein of baby ford or bam bam. lost dreams opens the record with a floaty dream-like hipnosis from the depths of space and sets the tone in magnificent style, followed up on side a with the irresistible roll of reverse the trend that takes the groove harder, further and deeperstraight off to the beyond. dark strings reminiscent of old lfo, b-12 or autechre vinyls from the early 90s propel us into side b on darkness stalks , and then we re transported onto the concluding track on the ep, distances , an epic closer that opens with beautiful reverbed claps and acid squelches before diving into an inky black void of timeless space-travelling and slow-building tension that could surely echo hauntingly around any m25 rave in the depths of a late 1980s night.

rothmans are back with there first release of 2014 - coyote - the socrates ep. this time the guys are paying hommage to one of the more contriversial stars of the late 70 s/ early 80s the absolutely legendry dr socrates! this 6th release by the the retro, football mad, perm loving lot sees them take a step away from the various artists format into the world of ep s. and what a stomper they have in the form of the is it balearic...? boys coyote. featuring on last years claudio gentile release the boys are back on rothmans and in fine form with a mixture of psychadelic disco and funky balearic beats that would make dr socrates himself stand up and shake that afro all over the dancefloor. and joining them on the team sheet are a pair of knock out players in the form of mark e & ste spandex. mark e putting his silky skills, and attacking mark on passing memories, and then ste spandex bringing it up the rear and joining him in attack with a live vhs remix of act like you know. the rothmans label seems to be taking shape now and looks like it could be also putting together a dream team of releases

bangin harder prime time techno

a new line (related) is the latest venture from lancashire-based andrew johnson (hood/remote viewer/moteer). utilising tools from the early days of home produced underground dance music (such as sk5 sampler keyboards and vintage drum machines) andrew has unearthed a beautiful album of downbeat, lamp-lit techno, industrial grade ambience and sonic experimentation which at times recalls early warp records, gescom and raw, 313 area beatdown house, as well as the more modern breed of electronic and techno travellers such as actress, mark fell (late period) and even theo parrish (the slow sound of your life).
the double vinyl lp includes a downloadcode for the full album.

ron morelli returns to stare down the ‘floor with four pieces written during the stress-busting sessions for ‘spit’. the muggy, droning welt of ‘public consumption’ kicks off with the sound of new york techno shot from the hip, while ‘another hit’ vents a vintage era-regis style built on skull-chipping snares and effluent acid modulation. the album’s writhing batacuda banger, ‘crack microbes’ reappears here as an extra-ferric extended version, sustaining the hypnotic intensity for nine minutes of panic attack acid and febrile cowbells, while ‘’rushing again’ escorts us to a close with triplet techno shook down by railgun snares and a grotty synthline.

label boss dj bone mans the controls for the 38th release on subject detroit, laying down a typically fierce, three pronged auditory attack. *what he said* tactfully yet forcefully treads the line between house and techno, cherry picking physiognomies from each side of that ever-blurring line and constructing something fresh but bristling with familiar subject detroit elegances. a favourite fixture from bones more recent dj sets, *i do* sees bubbling, arpeggiated chords simmer and swoop from foreground to background loosely as one solitary, remanipulated ticking hat keeps things in formation. watch out for the thunderous, doubled-up drum arrangement that crashes in to the picture out of nowhere! b side track *rhythm soul funk* is a genuine hard hitter and another that tiptoes between the old school and the nouveau.

an imperious opening gambit from the manchester collectives new label: a multi-pronged, vigorous, top-notch, house-techno showcase. the ep chugs straight off to the dance-floor, courtesy of the juniper duo at its darkest yet (after sides for ominira, underground quality and smallville), with jamming, filtered synths, echoing claps and vocals, and a b-line stealth attack. a regular at meandyou club nights, sul makes his recording debut here with a craftily delinquent and unhinged synth-pop… gone quite wrong. true to form, none other than kassem mosse — who played a night back in 2009 — turns in an instant classic, audacious and grimey, before collective mainstay heron rounds up proceedings with some deep n bleak, spectral techno, bathed in best basic channel traditions.

body 11 is/was the one-man project of tim stickelbrucks. inspired by the late 70s/early 80s icons such as omd, human league, and cabaret voltaire, tim wrote and recorded 4 songs in 1987 in his apartment and self-released the mind 7 inch ep in 1988. rather obscure at the time, the 7 gained cult status later in the 90s when collectors and word of mouth fans began seeking out copies of the record.medical records is proud to reissue the mind ep 4 songs along with unreleased recordings created at the same time. the unreleased tracks were songs that were distributed only on cassette (to friends, etc) at the time. the tracks have been transferred from cassette.

nice price deal !!! auf dem snow ghosts debütalbum auf dem fabric-sublabel houndstooth vereinen sich die düsteren electro-sounds von throwing snow (aka ross tones) und der erhabene folk-gesang von augustus ghost (aka hannah cartwright) zu einem gothic-dream-pop, der wie eine fusion aus massive attack, björk und zola jesus klingt. die beiden einzelkünstler supporten dieses jahr atoms for peace und bonobo. auf ihrem gemeinsamen album wirkte auch der angesagte londoner dubstep-künstler blue daisy mit.

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 four impressive releases from the likes of ossie and behling & simpson, 2020 midnight visions kicks of its attack on 2013 with a new ep from the uks doc daneeka. last year saw doc team up with benjamin damage for a well received full length on 50 weapons, they live!, which stood apart for its pioneering hybridisation of house, bass and techno. here, on his own terms, doc explores a more extroverted, melodically rich variant of bass heavy house across all four tracks.

kolortown is probably the best deep dub act in the world right now, drawing heavy influence from oldschool reggaedub combined with contemporary musical expressions and technology. this ep is a masterpiece in dubtricks, layering & tapebouncing and contains plenty of variety in moods, everything from cluboriented 4/4 steppers to late night chill out when the lights are out. this release shows the true skills of producers xoki & hieronymus here brought to a wider audience, and is comparable to the likes of massive attack and portishead. dont miss out on this part 3-its quite extraordinary!

dj nature aka milo steps uponce again to the indispensable golf channel label, with his eagerly awaited debut artist album comprising all original material. a founding member of legendary bristol sound-system collective the wild bunch (which spawned massive attack, tricky and much more), nature made nyc his home in the early 90s & went on to collaborate with the major force crew in japan, before hooking up with gc boss phil south, who thankfully persuaded him to don his production cap once again. there followed a series of acclaimed 12 inch releases through gc which developed a trademark sound, a sound he’s fully realised on >return of the savage<. natures unique take on modern black music is somewhere between the bass heavy sound system cuts on which he cut his teeth and the more nuanced vibe of peers like theo parrish. irresistible, low slung and beautifully structured yet raw club pieces make up this outstanding selection - a superbly packaged gatefold double lp, complete with download codes for individual tracks as well as the mixed version.
