toydrum are a duo who sneak into the consciousness. not for them the full frontal assault but, instead, a drip-feed of classy work that many may know without knowing. their hugely acclaimed work with the late singer-songwriter gavin clark lit up shane meadows’ ‘this is england ‘90’, their rework of john lennon’s ‘how do you sleep’ led noel gallagher to have them remix his high flying birds hit ‘in the heat of the moment’ (which, in turn, soundtracked last year’s epic ad for the latest ‘assassin’s creed’ game), and their soundtracks for films such as the recent tye sheridan-starring thriller ‘detour’ and alice lowe’s 2016 venice film festival opener, ‘prevenge’, have broadened their appeal further. toydrum’s signing to skint records is now announced and celebrated by ‘my eye on you (to reinvision)’, a collective interpretation of their work thus far, running the gamut from nick cave’s balladry to trentemøller’s drum & bass-tinted electronica.

»original skinhead reggae classics« kompiliert die bekanntesten reggae-tracks aus den späteren 60er und frühen 70er jahren, die sich mit der damals jungen skinhead-jugendbewegung beschäftigten, mit dabei u. a. acts wie dandy, lloyd charmers, derrick morgan, the pioneers oder symarip, dessen »skinhead moonstomp« später von the specials gecovert wurde.

senso sounds drop a major release from techno heavyweight dubfire and label boss oliver huntemann. reuniting the partnership that has seen a string of seminal releases over the years in the form of their ‘elements’ series, ‘humano’ is the 2nd part of a continuation of this series - more weapons of grade dance-floor material from the high profile duo. later on this year their partnership will be summarized in their ‘restrospectivo’ album. former deep dish man dubfire’s uncanny knowledge of how to create epic dance-floor moments is in full effect, combined with huntemann’s precision tool production techniques on the original version of the title track. the result is a super tough, tight and incalculably driving slice of techno goodness that will ignite floors worldwide. the rest of the ep manages to maintain the pressure - with a set of sick remixes from victor ruiz, hatzler and shaded. ruiz, the brazilian techno pioneer adds another level of fire to the original, tweaking and refining the track into a damager that pushes everything to 11 and hits home with every play. hatzler, the hamburg based german dj/producer chooses a different direction - emphasizing more of the space in the original. rinsing the tension to the next level, look out for the epic middle section break down. the whole package is primed to destroy clubs far and wide - techno at its most effective. shaded’s summer skin remix also delivers a tightly wound interpretation, with a bubbling bass line and nervous, excited groove providing the fuel for an extended dancefloor excursion.

skint records kündigt mit dem album -the invention of loneliness- von sailor & i eine spannende elektro-dance-pop-veröffentlichung an. der schwedische sänger, produzent und multiinstrumentalist alexander sjödin stellt jedoch nicht den klassischen archetypen eines musikschaffenden in der elektronischen musikwelt dar. vielmehr begibt sich der schwede unter dem namen sailor & i in das territorium von sigur ros und bon iver, die für ihr anspruchsvolles, fein abgestimmtes und melancholisches songwriting bekannt sind.
das doppel-vinyl erscheint inklusive downloadcode.

the third album by norman cook aka fatboy slim back on double 12 inch vinyl.

seb wildblood returns to the skint imprint as a follow up to his 2014, barcelona / blue colour ep. shadowed by his label mate apes, this release sees the two take on either side of the 10 inch with a familiar sound echoed by their church imprint. wildblood ignites the record with the bubbly and soothing concocton of noshi that fows seemingly under the vocals of phantasy afliate kelly lee owens. apes sits close on the fip side with a more club friendly ode to london, mortmer road. an eerie night time synth crawls through the suburban sounds of apes we ve been conditoned with since the up-rise of the church sound.

for her trolldans release, skirt has chosen an arresting cover by john bauer depicting a shining princess dressed all in white, seemingly revered by four trolls struck by her beauty. but as the title of the ep tells, its a mirage. when the music starts, you just know the trolls are done for.

victor calderone has stepped up for his first solo release on drumcode with his two track single, burden. featuring two energetic tracks, *skin* and *burden*, victor has used effected vocals to create funky rhythms over the top of some steaming kick drums. the synth stabs lend themselves well across this ep particularly in *burden* where they really augment the flow of the track. the use of percussion phrases throughout both tracks on the single also reinforces the grooves and adds character to create a distinctive sound that keeps the single fresh and exciting.

x-press 2 are gearing up for an exciting 2015 with a formidable string of releases due on skint, and further high profile labels. but before they enter a new chapter we offer a set of un-released dance floor driven productions that wrap up the duos last few years of works and set of single/eps that saw release on the skint catalogue. this is mmxv.

a new edits series from darkroom dubs sees skinnerbox kick proceedings off. strictly vinyl only!

busking really is next-level in berlin, with the acoustic guitar replaced by the laptop, drum machine and minimoog, all powered by a car battery. it was this thrown together setup that first introduced the world to skinnerbox as iftah gabbai and olaf hilgenfeld took their leftfield, jazzy attitude and improvised genre-bridging music to the streets of berlin for impromptu jam sessions. it wasnt long before skinnerbox were rocking the floors of ritter butzke and wilde renate and getting their music pressed to the black gold was surely the next step...

the second album by portlands eprom after last years *metahuman*, once again released by rwina records. bass music from the dark & heavy side.

marshall jefferson, one of the godfathers of house music drops a new ep via skint.

the latest offering from the balearica imprint featuring more top quality sun-kissed gems. first up is derrick harriots *black skin blue eyed boys*, a fantastic reggae disco cover version of the equals classic originally released on the mega rare *acid rock* lp back in 1982. following this bomb is the funky party killer, david lampells *iranian groove*. the flip side features the exceptionally hard to come by 12 inch version of *praise jah* by trinidadian singer oluko imo that captivates with its predominant funk bassline and inventive keys. finally, we have amadeos hugely in-demand *memories*, a spacey balearic disco groover that has been popping up on many djs most wanted lists ever since it was one of the standouts of harveys brilliant *sarcastic disco mix*. wonderful stuff!

composing an entire electronic album around the notorious 15th century cult of assassins, new jersey based producer jorge velez (italians do it better, thisnotanexit), better known as professor genius, has created a unique and ambitious piece of work, under the guise of hassan, which strongly stands apart from his previous efforts. check!

welcome back sade! 180 g vinyl !!we had to wait 8 years for her/their new album - but it was worth every single day! special gatefold cover !!

sixteen brief and inconsequential images..glimpses of scenes flickering by… heres mickey moonlights debut album! full of discrete and subtle details this lp is definitely aimed for home-listening and not for the club (even if close to everything is receiving massive support from our dj friends..) although mm has assembled a large and stellar cast of musicians the album still remains his singular and unique vision.

for well roundeds 11th release bristols skinnz drops a trio of infectious and melodic creations that share a kinship with todays garage and funky house sounds whilst standing apart due to their unique character. you may know sam from his other alias baobinga. he is man who commands much respect for his collaborations with people from a wide variety of musical backgrounds and his ability to channel his influences in an unforced and colourful way.
on the skinnz releases so far he has experimented with more garage influenced beats, while retaining his trademark focus on percussive momentum. however these tracks often flow freely across boundaries and genre limits encouraged to evolve in any direction that creates excitement. previous skinnz releases have already appeared on pinchs earwax label and boka records whilst his debut outing was on one of the first compilations of music that might be termed dubstep – the classic >our sound< album on destructive.

sonny wharton mixes of the massive let the beats roll

part 3 of the legends series just gets better and better part 3 features eric prydz / tim deluxe & switch

skinnerboxes first bpitch 12 inch >anapol< is the culmination of about seven years of performing experience. iftah gabbai and olaf hilgenfeld casually juggle colourful house, jazz and funk elements like its their second nature. and the metamorphosis from anarchistic improv chaos to form and structure in no way impinges on the level of energy in their music - in fact, just the opposite is the case, as the newly discovered sense of auditory space in the tracks allows them to significantly concentrate each tracks power.

mo record kicks is back! and act ii is an even heavier collection of rk exclusives, b-sides, remixes and material that appears on cd and compilation for the very first time.

with friends and cohorts like these, you can’t be sad for long. after the longest and best-ever and final closing, the saddest, best-ever and most personal record on the bar25 label is here. as pure dumb numerical luck would have it, it is – naturally – the 25th release. and, we’re almost proud to say, it’s strictly family business. the closing record speaks more to the spirit of the bar than any words, spoken or written, ever could. every track unique yet well-rounded, somewhere between universal and personal. awash with emotion, as though the sound machines had begun to breathe.
