here it is, the 12th disc on hotline recordings, ringing off two wicked & wild dancefloor abstractions from none other than gantz.
tut-tut situation has been doing the rounds on dubplate for some time now, with the bandulu massive, commodo, etch and the likes giving this one big support from day one – we’ve seen dancefloors bruk out like a bunch of confused nutters to this one… it’s a certified soundsystem banger for wrong’uns.
on the flip, gantz comes with a new direction of style, dipping into the acid-drenched rave sound of the 90’s with his own set of information. rugged, distorted rhythms grind up against an infectious melody and love’d up vocals, once again, this is proper party gear for all twisted minds (and legs even).

johannes dropping 4 brand new house cuts. a side with smooth disco house fantasies, imagine just a slightly cheaper version of a soundstream record. “town” on the flip side comes more like well …. think of tiga releasing on playhouse anno 2004 and you get there. maybe not. oh yes jay ain’t no singer but hey… dj bonus tool attached to make up for it.

for his latest release, dirt crew and quintessentials favorite ponty mython has linked up with washington, dc-based imprint better listen for a five track package of globally inspired groovers. the house for sale ep maintains the sample-based production aesthetic of better listen s debut record, and draws heavily from rare african funk and disco sources. the vilnius-based producer s trademark eclecticism is injected throughout the record, with the a-side leaning more towards wonky, left-field house cuts and the flip hosting more disco-like arrangements. dj support sleazy beats recordings mike w.

the newest release from unrilis packs a literal one-two punch with “stay with me”, a hard-hitting double feature with kaiserdisco and fabio neural bringing out their finest work for summer 2016. the combined efforts of frederic berger and patrick buck under the name kaiserdisco deliver no less than their best on this collaboration with a lifer if there ever was one: fabio neural, who brings a love he has held since the age of 13 to the collaborative efforts showcased here. having earned respect with appearances on record labels like drumcode, and gracing clubs like soundgarden and festivals across europe, one hopes this is far from the last listeners will get from this truly outstanding partnership.

august 2016 saw running back release a first volume of live tracks from redshape, but january 2017 sees the much loved artist return to delsin, his most regard label, for a second offering of the same. this time the ep has one track made in paris, and one in london, and both are filled with the sort of beautifully bleak and lo-fi sounds that have made this man such a standout artist over the years. up first is london, a chugging track that builds in pressurised layers of coarse hi hats, gurgling bass and pinging kick drums. it is a hypnotic groove that teases you as elements drop in and out and hisses of static and broken little guitar riffs add some cheeky funk. on the flip-side, paris is much more playful, with colourful pixelated melodies dancing about the mix, industrial drums working down low and steppy synths fleshing things out. overall it sounds like a future disco for inebriated robots and is one of redshape s more party starting tracks.

autofacs gonna be a new one to you, but the names behind it—juan maclean and marcus lambkin, a.k.a. shit robot—most certainly are not. the dfa house, disco, and techno veterans have long been friends, sharing bills around the world, vocalists on records, engineers on mixing boards. for a while now, they ve also been collaborating in the studio, and it s with tremendous honor that we get to be the label that presents the world with the fruits of their labors. souls on ice is a snarled, fierce, aggressive four-tracker, all of it recorded live, which gives it a distinct loopiness and patience. the ep starts off on a bumpin techno tip and slowly drifts towards a spacier, groovier house sound. charged and punchy, its the kind of dance floor kick in the pants only wizards like juan and marcus can deliver. key selling points. debut release by autofac, a production duo comprised of dfa veterans juan maclean and shit robot. full international press and dj promo campaign.

repress / standard cover ...
on local talk s 74th release it s about time to get real...and we re not only talking about the music! this a heavy and political record that through music expresses the constant struggle for many african americans living in the us today. or like jamie 3:26 said after he first heard sameed s initial version - it instantly hit me with the raw pain and emotion of the lyrics. there is so much struggle in the world today, many black men and women are in emotional, mental and spiritual battles. the message is delivered over two tracks, testify and can t u . both tracks are using the same themes and samples but with a distinct difference on the end result. on the a side we find chicago legend jamie 3:26 teaming up with amsterdam s new shining star masalo (brighter days crew) for a gospel inspired disco / house jam that comes with a slight warehouse feel and a thumping bassline that is 100% on point on the flip sameed is back on local talk with can t u . a track that uses the same foundation as testify but instead goes straight for that dirty disco knock out punch...heavy stuff! as an extra bonus we also included dusty jazz , a fender rhodes driven jazz-house cut from sameed that sounds like it comes straight from a dark juke joint in manchester.

this is feline, suara s vinyl only sub-label. a place where coyu pays tribute to the black gold releasing underground local talent. house or techno, techno and house, always raw, always pure. visually is the feline elegance, reflected in the beauty of the motion and the plasticity of its own forms, like a cheetah floating in the savannah. counterpoint to suara, feline goes deeper searching for the purity of the graphic concept and the honesty of the message. for our third release we have barcelona s artist baldo introducing his unique way of interpreting electronic music plus a superb remix from daniel kyo.

while many us producers from the second house wave of the 90s are looked at like demigods, others have remained partly in the shadows, and considerably underrated given their achievements. anthony nicholson is one producer who belongs to the latter category, but one which we ve been supporting since day one of juno. the man came to prominence thanks to a fruitful relationship with ron trent, and also to a whole heap of quality releases for known imprints like peacefrog, prescription, and nite grooves. this week, however, he s up on his own highly underrated circular motion, spear-headed by the excellent -miquifaye studio rewerk-, a tribal house groove with a deep, wondrous backdrop of synth exploration. -beat pad apella- is a jazzier piece of music, an enticing house chiller with plenty of musical nuances that bounce off its full, intricate groove. excellent - don t overlook this one...

its june 2003, and the power trio of tony, halo & hipp-e have formed a supergroup under the guise the 6400 crew to unleash a 12-inch that would take the summer by storm. dubb me some tin fresh- quickly garnered support from the upper echelons of the dj community for its unrelenting groove and its unabashed tribute to the music of producers like lee scratch perry and king tubby. fast forward 13 years, and this single further cements itself in the history of yoshitoshi with a classic remix pack.

seige monstracity is an anomaly in the music industry. he rides the fence, providing the contemporary soundtracks for successful commercial artists such as yg, tyrese, keisha cole, and marsha ambrosius, as well as producing grimey backdrops for underground artists like bizarre, bad lucc, and namebrand.
this is a collection of the latter. seige’s debut lp contains 12 incredible doses of heavy beats, chopped up breaks, and obliterated samples. a detroit transplant in los angeles, both cities are omnipresent at all times on the lp.
“swahililand” is a west-coast interpretation of the classic “stakes is high”. “careless” revives a classic david axelrod moment. “dirt bag” sounds like a late night liquor store robbery. “doves” takes a classic from one of our all time greats who we lost recently, and transforms it into a ride thru the hood on a beautiful day in los angeles.
this is not to be missed. another classic collection of beats from street corner music.

next up creme organization is a return by regular artist lake haze. following his natural insight ep earlier in the year comes intergalactic communicationz, four more fresh tracks of acid, techno and electro that is brilliantly evocative. the portuguese artist known as goncalo salgado also please son labels like unknown to the unknown and is a real hardware master. at the gates ov futron is a turbulent lack track with zipping acid and a cacophony of percussion that is visceral as well as cinematic. drexciyan aquarium is, as the name suggest, an aqueous electro track that slithers and slides through an expansive underwater world. poseidon s dream then offers a more rugged electro groove that is backed by heavenly pads and a real sense of loss in the synths. last of all, intergalactic communication closes out this far travelling and intergalactic ep with a sci-fi deep house track that is filled with light, 909s and a sense that the end of the world is coming.

giovanni damico is an extremly talented and ambitious producer from italy. despite his young age he has over 20 releases on labels like the beloved faces. this ep is just insane. proud moment for giovanni and lumberjacks in hell

monologue plays out like a novel, where the abernathy’s expand the perception of family over ab’s expansion of the stripped down soul/r&b music we’re used to hearing. whether he’s playing piano, wurlitzer, synths, guitar, programming drums, live drums, or arranging strings and horn lines, ab’s mastery of musicianship is on full display through monologue’s array of colorful, complex compositions, coupled with his rich, layered vocals.

ilario alicante is back on the track and he simply beats the shit out us! the italian techno maestro presents a stronger than strong release that defines the alicante-sytle in pure perfection. the extreme detroit flavoured alicante double pack tracker comes with remixes by adventice and mark broom. alicantes originals “virgo storm” and “hypno” are based on a massive and masculine beat programming and wave the “purpose maker” and “axis” flag like no other of his releases so far. this is heavy material - this feeds rob hood and jeff mills fans and we can see and hear alicantes admiration for the underground resistance back catalogue here! adventice (dj deep & romain poncet) remix for “virgo storm” follows this direction however it leaves out the manic synth elements and incorporates even more peaktime-floor-action-sounds that have only one message: total dancefloor madness! mark brooms remix for “hypno” introduces a very cool but deep-dark and filtered organ-bassline which gives his remix an even more hypnotic touch in contrast to the cheeky and nasty original by ilario alicante. this 4-track-package proofs that good and solid techno is still fresh and alicante leaves a major footprint with this release! play this loud and drive your speakers to the edge, azzurro alicante is back on cocoon recordings!

nice price deal !!! airhead continues to impress and confound with his run of releases on r&s. his last release >wait/south congress< found itself gaining praise right across the board. it showcased his atmospheric guitar styles as well as his deft programming skills, resulting in some trying to pigeon-hole his sound in a post rock/electronica direction. this ep proves it not that easy to pin him down with two new tracks of fresh club music. pyramid lake again showcases his expert manipulation of samples, but this time weaves them into a drunken dance groove, full of whirring percussion and heavy bass. black ink is a bubbling, percussive roller that in the hands of a lesser producer would sound like a traincrash. it bounces along almost out of control and sucks you into its charms until it hits you with some uplifting, haunted chords, at which point it is impossible to resist.

nice price deal !!! luca baldini is a talented italian artist based in berlin who produce just beautiful timeless electronic house music, known in the circuit for his drama society project (along with music partner sergio ricciardone) and releases for turbo, fine and (his brand new) drama society recordings. after the first hell yeah release ever hermann der rammler luca is back with his first fullalbum called apnea to be released early 2010 on hell yeah and this is the apetizer: hooked is a fat killer groove full of synths and cut up vocals fighting eachother in depth while icecrash (available on vinyl only) is another super dope slab of electronic funk which already grabbed fans like laurent garnier, tiga, davide squillace, who are hammering this since months. this essential 12inch is completed by a superb hard to describe its a fine line rework of hooked, freaky proto tech-funk: ivan smagghe and tim paris at their inimitable best. hell yeah

atr is a one of a kind reggae collective based in parkside brooklyn. founded by scrillamatic and kg, at their core they are just group of friends who hang out in the park and sing, all day. the routine is simple, they meet up at their favorite hangout spot on the side of a lake, play beats off of a beat up but loud stereo, and belt out lyrics out into the air. sometimes a crowd gathers but it’s usually just a few like minded artists sharing their love for music. natives of the west indies, but coming of age in brooklyn, they have a very unique perspective on life and the world we live in. with subject matters varying from traditional roots medleys, smoked out ganja anthems to gangsta badman chants to heartfelt soulful ballads telling tales of the ghetto and more, they have a lot to say.

&#8203,,one of the foundation artists on samurai horo, asc is an essential part of the labels rebirth with the ’geocentric systems’ ep. taking the grey area sound into heavier, darker territory, ‘aphelion’ and ‘perihelion’ formed the core of this ep with their fervent bpm trickery. these tracks are techno rebuilt with dizzying sensory loss, adding a weightless intensity that feels like a constant attack. ’passel’ and ‘geocentric systems’ offer a dubbed out version of the approach, heavy on the intricate sound design that has become the asc trademark.

one of the holy grail of the minimal synth and one of the most obscure musical projects ever produced in italy is finally reissued on mannequin records. originally released in 1981 by broadbean records, a sub-label of lm records, flo & andrew only release take suicide was home-recorded and home-mixed by the duo in bologna, using early drum machines like the boss dr-55 and the korg kr-55, analog synthesizers, guitar, saxophone, tape loops. flo & andrew music is truly unique and exemplifies the fact that limitation can be the perfect source for creativity. the title-track and to committ suicid’ travel through contort and nervous synth sounds and loops, taking somehow inspiration from the no wave heroes, while japanese girls is nothing less than a beautiful minimal electronics track in the mythology of the futuristic rise of japanese country. recently (re)discovered, ‘take suicide’ is a milestone of the european minimal synth singles and is not really a coincidence that a young generations of producers take it as inspiration (you can see take suicide floating in the tracklist of artists as helena hauff and ngly). another must have in your collection / record bag! mastering by ruud 66.
