mysterious man that is monsieur georget… fresh off the back of an admirable ep on sammy dee s cult imprint ultrastretch, he returns with a freaky francais offering for adult only shape. minimalist in its nature yet meaty in its stature, the 3-track package features glitches, scratches and vocal murmurs, varying from the effortlessly sexy >en voiture simone< and highly-addictive >viens fifine<, to the driving tribal beat of > georget au piquet<. adult only shape is the new sub-label of chris carriers adult only, the prolific imprint that has been releasing the best in quality house since 2000. adult only shape brings a more techno-orientated flavour in vinyl-only format , with eps so far from funk e and marcman.

with *my love is a bulldozer*, venetian snares first new album since 2010s *my so-called life*, aaron funk surprises yet again, drawing on new ideas and on moods that have only been touched upon in his previous work. the album seems to have a flowing sense of narrative, something akin to an opera, and unusually aaron sings songs on it, which reinforces the sense of an emotional journey. sonically he meshes together sometimes thunderous yet complex drum programming with delicate musical structures, creating, in places, a sense of haunted, atmospheric jazziness, as well as spiky autumnal strings recalling the gothic orchestral beauty of his previous work.

hailing from sunny los angeles, plastic love records kicks off our first release with an ep from label co-boss jimmy maheras. maheras made his debut in 2011 with his space jam ep on the crosstown rebels edit sub-label, rebellion. since then he s released remixes and singles on strainjjur, riff raff, supernature, and left d. maheras s two original tracks showcase his depth with the man from another place being squarely aimed at the big room dance floor and the second track, arecibo, bringing a little kraftwerkesque funk. we ve commissioned timothy j fairplay (crimes of the future) and cottam (aus music / ruff draft) for two very unique remixes. fairplay crunches down the original melody and throws it over the famed amen break to give tmfap a hands in air late night feel while cottam s remix brings the dreamy melody closer to acid with storming late night kick ready to knock down a wall.
