local action and nts radio’s finn launches his new label, 2 b real, with a 12- of fast-paced, no-nonsense club tracks. finn first appeared in 2014 with ‘keep calling’ - an instant classic and one of the year’s best-received releases, played relentlessly by kode9, dj q, murlo, eclair fifi, scratcha dva and more. since then he’s developed a cult following as a dj, with a palette of regional us club styles, classic house and techno, grime & freestyle electro beyond his years - broadcast through his monthly nts show and his regular b2b podcasts, where he goes track for track with a dj he admires (such as uniiqu3, teki latex and conor thomas). 2 be real is finn’s new home for dance tracks high in thrills and low on bullshit. on 2br001, he draws on classic ghettotech for the melodic keys and urgent 909s of ‘late at night’ (with a more uk-indebted darkside mix on the flip), and teams up with resident swing ting mc fox for ‘lightwork’, a vocal cut inspired by detroit’s own legacy of hip house and ‘chant’ records.

lo-fi größe matt jones veröffentlicht erstes crescent album nach zehnjähriger pause! wenn musiker wie die indie-größe matt jones eine zehnjährige pause zwischen der veröffentlichung zweier alben einlegt, dann ist das ein qualitätssiegel! Ähnlich seiner bristoler fachkollegen flying saucer attack oder movietone arbeitet er nur dann an neuem material, wenn er es für richtig und wichtig hält. dieses selbstbewusstsein ist jedem ton der neun songs auf -resin pockets- anzuhören, dem ersten album seit der crescent-veröffentlichung -little waves-. es ist ein album geworden, das sich sein eigenes plätzchen im britischen outsider lo-fi-pop schafft. eine zusätzliche prise des anti-folk-feelings macht aus resin pockets ein werk voller zeitloser melodien, bewegender texte und einem ganz besonderen gefühl sommerlicher intimität.

to forget the pursuit of harmony. to recall the past to make a future. forever seeing yourself reflected, feeding back in eternal repeating cycles. a dialog with oneself within the natural world. choosing a final destination as the journey ceaselessly repeats. i hope to share what ive experienced in this big journey. i hope you will feel both a sense of nostalgia, and a sense of newness. that makes our harmony. kazuomi eshima

the gooiland elektro compilation “unruhe” is a showcase of contemporary acid techno… spacey and trippy in the hands of zarkoff and distorted and freaked out by roberto auser… but also rather industrial when done by foql or pushed to the extreme by the untitled… this is acid as it should sound… edgy and daring tracks for illuminated heads instead of easy and boring sounds suitable for the masses… and as with all gooiland elektro releases this one is equally intense on the dance floor as with headphone playback.

the 6 track double vinyl release includes the full 14 track album on cd.

after 10 years of releasing on some of the most respected labels in the scene including 31 records, commercial suicide and samurai music, soul intent is to release his first solo album via his own imprint, lossless music. the album features collaborations with chromatic, jazz vocalist sue mae, as well as his old dataset band mate chris gittins.
in soul intent’s own words: “i wanted the make an album that had continuity but also showed all the vibes and styles i m into as a producer, dj and general lover of this music. hopefully it’s an album of substance and people enjoy the journey.”

brassica is a trusted staple in the field of outboard house and techno, from time served on labels as esteemed as dissident and civil music through to more recent outings on feel my bicep and others. here the uk producer has been snapped up by vivod for four tracks of deep analogue house and electro to warm the cockles a treat. coco diaz is a tightly wound jam that hinges on a broken beat, while splash opens out into a blissful melancholic reverie. nothing to say amps up the sleaze and the acid a treat before blue function heads into more trippy soundtrack territory

doppel-ep auf pink & blau gefärbtem vinyl, inklusive downloadcode für das komplette release plus bonus-track „that thing“.
zum einen sind da die verschwommenen, direkten songs von „never going home“ mit denen hazel english ihre erste aufmerksamkeit erlangte, zum anderen ist auf „just give in“ die blühende, kreative partnerschaft mit jackson philips (aka day wave) zu hören. die beiden trafen sich, als hazel in ihrer wahlheimat oakland in einem buchladen arbeitete und jackson, auf dem weg seinen synthesizer reparieren zu lassen, kurz vorbeischaute. die beiden kamen ins gespräch und beschlossen kurz darauf zusammen musik zu machen. eine zufallsbekanntschaft ohne die diese doppel-ep vermutlich nie zu stande gekommen wäre. jeder der songs hat eine zeitlose, sonnengeküsste Ästethik inne, die von hazels direktem stil und ihrer pop-sensibilität nochmals hervorgehoben wird. hochansteckender dream-pop trifft auf ehrliches songwriting. auf einem beach-pop-fundament aufbauend schafft es hazel english mit „just give in / never going home“ einen vibe zu erschaffen, der sich in jeder umgebung wohlfühlt.

on his sixth album, the arc of tension, the berlin based dj, label owner and producer oliver koletzki yet again presents his remarkable vision of contemporary electronic music, while he assumes the role of a storyteller. the arc of tension speaks to its listener as a singular, self contained work, which communicates by way of its natural flow and arc of suspense. the latter is mirrored not only in the multifarious narrative of the actual album, but can also be understood as evidence for its creators long musical history. while koletzki focussed on a diverse range of vocal collaborations on his previous long players, he now moves on to a different form of storytelling, rooted in the quiet confidence of a veteran musician, as well as the hectic lifestyle of a globally in demand dj.

the self-proclaimed funkiest band on the west coast of africa, the heads funk band, could arguably make that claim for the whole continent. featuring the slick guitar of felix ‘feladey’ odey, the slinky drumming of eddie offeyi and the swirling keyboard chops of kevin ‘fortune’ coburn, nobody was funkier. and that’s not even taking into account the dance floor monsters they were releasing at the same time as akwassa.

finnish techno icon mono junk aka kim rapatti joins forces with berlin based freestyle man aka klas sasse lindblad, known for his productions on classic labels like sähkö and moodmusic. pata ep starts with the hard hitting techno title ‘not a love story’, haunting vocals, simple synthline, slicing percussion and deep bassdrum, all u need to make an effect, this must be heard in a big sound system. following with ‘need your lovin’ the ep takes a more electro approach, mesmerising love story with jupiter-8 bassline and 808 beats accompanied with vocals on this track too by mr rapatti. the ep ends with ‘stella polaris’, a production which started as a jam in 2007 in berlin at sasse’s blackhead studios and was finished 10 years later in 2017 in the same location. reminiscing of early 90s electronica time when everything was pure and gold and when these fellows also were starting their careers. ‘stella polaris’ leaves no one cold with emotional themes of analog synthesis and depth of the bass.

flexxseal label owner christopher joseph returns for the fifth edition of the series. christopher bridges the gaps between “classic” and “contemporary”, he expresses the concept of music as a continuation, a narrative, and leaves no space for pretentious judgement.

from the age of 13, jullian gomes secretly gambled every cent of his school lunch money on buying deep-house records, no doubt with the unknown knowledge that someday, these records would change his life forever. only a few people know this but jullian used to sneak, yes! sneak into local clubs in and around pretoria / tshwane from a very early age. at this time nothing could stop this young man being in the moment to enjoy the music that has now, amazingly, become his full time career. maybe his parents will be ok with the knowledge of his secret nightlife now knowing how incredibly skilled and loved their son has become throughout the world of dance music.

2lp vinyl printed gatefold, includes cd! cd edition and cd included in the 2xlp feature the same tracks in the same order. this is a clear perspective on comelade’s musical universe and can be considered as an ultimate “best of” and a radical introduction tothis chaotic and uncompromising instrumental music. rocanrolorama abrégé (-abbreviated rockandrolorama-, in english) is the short version of the complete works and reworks of pascal comelade published at the end of 2016 as a 6-cd box set in a sold-out limited edition of 1000 numbered and signed copies. pascal comelade made this album as if it was a new and separate album, with tracks that he considers best represent his work, from 1993 to 2016, according to the principle applied with the rocanrolorama box set: songs in their original form, alternative versions, reworks, additions… this short version was conceived especially for a double vinyl lp format: four sides with six tracks each, which you can listen to in the right order, from start to finish, according to a logical, thought-out progression for each side (slow tempo, medium tempo, orchestrations, electricity, etc.)

* mikal takes his first bow for dust audio in the form of the spirited ep . the break and bass craftsman reigns down an assault of almighty weight for the imprint which holds no barred. * off the back of his critically acclaimed wilderness album on metalheadz, mikal continues to seek out the dance floor through his precision target and locks on for a serious assault of the senses. * the ep’s title track “spirited” see’s the sinister intro build up and transform into a bass laden drop. the stepping drums and jungle infused shuffles entwine with the ghost vocal, whilst the modulated bass will move even the harshest drum n bass skeptics. unrelenting throughout. * the flip sees mikal spread his considerable studio talent over two further tunes of constant surprise. low note wastes no time in getting to the drop before you’ve had chance to take a breath. a thunderous one note bass underpins the mid ranged reece and stabs whilst the chunky drums compliment the tidy percussion nicely. a haunting vocal then sets off another 16 bars of unclouded rawness. * linear finishes the ep with aplomb. synth chords open up into what you might expect to be a lovely liquid-esque style roller… think again! mikal takes that premise and turns it upside down and inside out before bringing the dirty funk. keeping in line with the 2 tunes before, this isn’t for the faint hearted. definitely one for the drum & bass purest, who may well be dancing, but will also be taking down mental notes!

fuse bosses enzo siragusa and seb zito have been invited by the highly respected rawax to bring a taste of their beloved london rave culture roots to the labels first release of 2017. since their launch in 2011, rawax’s catalogue has beamed with nothing less than the finest, and enzo and seb are a welcomed addition to their already colourful and diverse roster. barac, boo williams, fred p, paul johnson, ricardo villalobos, ron trent and unbroken dub are just a small portion of an incredible list of artists that have released via the labels original monarch and many offshoots thus far. with ‘woonie trax’ enzo and seb perfectly resurrect the sounds of early uk rave culture into the present by digging out the early gems of their record boxes as inspiration. “barring the kicks, i think almost everything came from sampling old garage, hardcore and jungle records from the 90 s. for those in the know, the clues are in the names of the tracks”. – enzo siragusa whilst ‘shades of riddim, ‘lil ley’, and ‘blue notes’ all lend themselves to the early uk sound, each track has its own individual quirk making the ep a diverse representation of the days enzo and seb fell in love with rave.
