sharon jones & the dap-kings’ final studio album, soul of a woman is a lush, orchestral masterpiece. a true testament to the life and career of daptone’s fearless leader and one of the world’s greatest performers.
though we’ll never again see her electric form shimmy across the stage, sharon jones continues to give us her soul and her music. she died nearly a year ago, but only now can we hear her final creation. soul of a woman captures a singer and a band at the peak of their power. cutting one last time to eight-track tape at daptone’s house of soul studio in bushwick, brooklyn, the band endeavored to create a record that stretches the limits of their soulful sound in all directions, giving us both their rawest and most sophisticated recordings to date. a final statement by one of the most influential rhythm and blues voices of the 21st century.

30drop records presents the first release of close encounters, the newest and the final concurrent collection of the label. four tracks, four artists and one common goal. the proposal is based on feasible, or better said, future encounters with extraterrestial beings or civilizations from outer space. the idea behind the whole work is to construct a conceptually and musically self-sufficient bundle of tracks developed by several creatives. on this case, dj surgeles, jeroen search, 30drop itself and another label s member, oryx 9, are the manufacturers of this first chapter. dj surgeles has a solid career as dj and producer with, for instance, his releases on something in the sky, the captivating and exquisite label of jeff mills. jeroen search is another well known talented producer with a large discography behind him that opens the ep with a steadfast cosmic shot, -aeon-. -umbra-, a spacey on a firm body track by dj surgeles, takes over from. on the b side, 30drop drops us to a -lunar mission- launched directly from the dance floor and, finally, oryx 9 invites us to a psychedelic floating experience on a distant galaxy -black market-. first contact ep is a massive set of sci-fi techno cuts that you should not miss it!

blue hawaii is the songwriting, production, and dj project of raphaelle ‘ra’ standell and alexander ‘agor’ kerby. after some four years apart, the duo rekindled their creative flame in 2016 and begun writing music about an intimate relationship ra was experiencing mostly over instant messaging, sparking ideas about the meaning of closeness in our highly connected world. tenderness is a concept album which brings forth the challenges of handling relationships online. maintaining closeness over distance and a need for more tenderness between each other - both in real and virtual life - are important themes in the album s progression. the album draws upon influence from 90 s dance tracks and deep disco cuts, often mixed with ra’s acoustic guitar playing. it unfolds like a play and each song being supported by shorter interlude pieces: skits, phone calls, acoustic demos, real life samples and quiet left-turns.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

(uk), night people (us) + rhythm works (au), roman nails has maintained a steady flow of experimental techno over the last few years. utilising a minimal, cv-triggered hardware set-up and from a perspective rooted in improvisation, rn is a unique beast. the tongue-in-cheek titled, all hardware no tools, is his most concise and well-considered release to date, offering noirish synth tones, slinking basslines and captivating interplay between a 707 and 727. 300 copies.

the second release from producer eomac’s new dublin-based label eotrax comes from nomadic irish producer lair. this is an exciting step for the label, moving away from the dancefloor into more diverse, eclectic territory. lair is a producer far from the norm, especially for those releasing on an electronic music label. she classifies herself as a composer, producer, vocalist, artist, sound-healer and yoga teacher. with a diverse background that includes singing classical and traditional material shes expanded her artistic approach into a diverse web-like multi-disciplinarian approach in keeping with her nomadic life. currently she creates electronic music, contemporary classical music and healing music under a variety of alias including laura kilty and luminousounds (for healing music). she is also in the duo noeverything with eomac. in her words my lair music is how i see the world - this one and others channeled - expressed through layers of my vocals which i shape electronically. the music has elements of mysticism, sacred geometry, energy, sound with intention and just sounds i love formed to make music i love. i see music as i create it. i work with lots of layers - for me its like creating an aural representation of the image i see. these layers of sound can be found in her debut self-titled ep in the deep, ritualistic drones of invoke and meld on the a-side, and the more concise rhythmical patterns of searching in circles on the flip.

darauf kann man sich verlassen: wo joey negro draufsteht, ist tanzmusik drin. seit der 13-jährige david russell lee 1977 in einer tv sendung den song boogie nights von heatwave hörte, ist er vom disco-virus infiziert. und den ist er bis heute nicht mehr losgeworden. obwohl produced with love erst sein zweites eigenständiges album nach universe of love von 1993 ist, hat joey negro in den vergangenen dekaden mächtige spuren im dance-bereich hinterlassen. nicht nur produzierte er zahlreiche chartbreaker, dancefloor-kracher und remixe unter diversen pseudonymen (jakatta, raven maize, doug willis, prospect park u.v.a.m.), vor allem war er für grace jones, diana ross, deep dish, lionel richie, mariah carey, tears for fears, ultra nate, masters at work, roy ayers, blaze und roger sanchez aktiv. hinzu kommen kollaborationswerke, bandprojekte und eine reihe herausragender kompilationen wie die house masters-serie, remixed with love, disco not disco oder kings of house. kurz: ob mainstream oder underground, joey negro ist ein mann der superlative, bei dem einfach jeder beat, jedes hook und jeder loop perfekt sitzt.

making his long awaited return to salt mines, hymns produces a debut 12” flecked with restrained breakbeats, off-kilter rhythms and glistening pads. opener ‘water acid’ is an eerie amalgamation of aquatic electro and tense emotion, built for a fractured dancefloor deep in the arctic ring. a2 ‘searching for the real’ provides a brief moment of introspection, before b-side leader ‘heinz harald frentzen’ crashes down and amplifies the intensity with sharp breaks and rapid, stark percussion. closing the release, title track ‘waves of nothing’ showcases hymns at his best, utilising lonely synths and equally mechanical and organic percussion to create a sentimental, vulnerable climax.

mr. g’s annual record store day release!

reissue of steve winwoods 1990 album refugees of the heart.

there was a time when to die was something slightly different from what it is today. back in the last days of the middle age, some hidden monk was concerned about how to die properly, according to the catholic standarts of that era, so he wrote a book that was a cornerstone in that period. this has been the leitmotiv and inspiration in the concept that drives this album, the ars moriendi book from 1415, a book that gave some clues about how to die properly, avoiding lack of faith, despair, impatience, avarice or spiritual pride, all those actually track titles in this compendium.

beranek’s debut album, “sound of danger”, was released on mind expanding records in november 1981. nowhere near as accessible as the previous single, the album fared poorly commercially. withdrawing from the single’s fun, kitsch pop, the album is cool and static, driven by thin rhythm boxes, cold synths, and glacial guitars. taking heavy cues from david bowie, all of the songs are sung in a nasally english accent, a rare occurrence in norway at the time. the lyrics are melancholic, but tinged with paranoia. there are also upbeat tracks that evoke a prog or glam sensibility a la king crimson, alan parsons, or roxy music. all songs have been remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. housed in the original jacket featuring red, black, and white lines that evoke a visualized richter scale designed by monica moltzau. each copy includes a 2-sided 8x11” insert with lyrics and an autographed press photo of beranek.

hot on the heels of system of survivals latest album and exclusively on vinyl comes the d-votion ep to get physical music. the influential house duo present cuts from the album, d-votion and no time to waste,d-votion is laid out first a deep and groovy dancefloor track with low end grit and a funky swing it its step. a collaboration with salvatore stallone the track is very moving and nearly impossible to resist. no time to waste plays a hypnotically rhythmic synth over a steamy stage of sweaty percussion. next we turn to the brand new vinyl-exclusive acid house number phantom power for a heavy dose of midnight action. with a very technoid feel, the acids presence suspensefully builds a tension throughout while the bassline chugs the track further. next surfbit joins to present searching for a wave, another track featured on the album. this one shines more sun with warm synths, soft vocals and gentle melodies. the collaboration ends the ep on a warm note, a special sound for a special dancefloor moment.

special deal! it was a matter of time until john swing finally made his debut on warm sounds with three cuts in collaboration with the yet unknown david soleil-mon. considering john swing s previous material, this featuring defines a fresh approach to the composition. the signature raw grooves that have so far delivered stripped down, minimalistic house gems are now opening up to more meditative states of mind through a crafty combination of tones. every element sounds organically in its place: a1 delivers the right energy for the conscious dancefloor while a2 steps forward towards a more futuristic groove aesthetic. on the b side, searchin pleasures us with a lo-fi 11 min journey crossing over from dub to jazz while still keeping the signature house sound. definitely a turning point for john swing, who s now uncovering a new side of his faceted output. limited to 500 hand numbered copies.

the mighty flames were a crack bunch of cameroonian musicians, drawn to nigeria by the heavy funk sounds booming across the border like musical moths. for a short time in the late sentries they ‘owned’ port harcourt, destroying dancefloors with an incendiary sound that burned so heavily that it was phosphorescent. metalik funk band is the band at their most deadly.

the main ingredient is the second album by pete rock & cl smooth, originally released in 1994. characterized by sultry soul and jazz samples, the album saw a more polished sound than the duo’s debut “mecca & the soul brother” movlp1633, building on the praise that they had already garnered. the main ingredient is notable for its snappy, crispy drums and extensive use of vocal scratches. it contains some of the duo’s best known work, in the form of tracks such as the upbeat “in the house”, and the catchy “sun won’t come out”, which features a lush vocal sample from the song of the same name by harvey scales.

james newton howard gehört inzwischen zu den bekanntesten soundtrack-komponisten hollywoods. seine scores für “the dark knight” und “batman begins” (beide gemeinsam mit hans zimmer) genießen kult-status, er hat aber auch so unterschiedliche filme wie “pretty woman” und “the hunger games” vertont. ursprünglich war er session-musiker und verdiente seinen unterhalt als tour-keyboarder von elton john, bis er mit dem soundtrack zu “the sixth sense” eine eigenständige karriere realisierte.

o.v. wright war ein legendärer soulsänger, der leider 1980 viel zu früh an einem herzinfarkt gestorben ist. obwohl der 41-jährige sänger insgesamt 13 top 50 r&b-hits zu verzeichnen hatte, kann man ihn nicht nur an seinem kommerziellen erfolg messen. er wurde als einer der größten und ausdrucksstärksten sänger des genres verehrt und mit größen wie otis redding oder solomon burke verglichen. “treasured moments” enthält eine essentielle auswahl an singles, die er zwischen 1965 und 1976 auf don robeys back beat label und abc records veröffentlicht hat.
