according to white material pair galcher lustwerk and alvin aronson, their first collaborative album under the studio ost alias contains a mix of breezy electro, aquatic dub, high speed jit, and shimmering atmospherics. while clearly tongue-in-cheek, it s a fairly accurate description. certainly, there s a fluidity, moodiness and palpable sense of atmosphere at the heart of scenes, which casually drifts between hard-edged club workouts, hazy post-club fare and dreamy, horizontal experiments. it was apparently recorded over a three-year period, during jam sessions at various new york studios. its the spontaneous aspect of its creation that has the biggest effect, and makes the whole thing feel like fleeting snapshots of moments in time.

freedom wig ist der name des mittlerweile dritten studioalbums des norwegischen duos ost & kjex. zehn tracks, die wieder einmal perfekt den spagat zwischen indie und underground electronica schaffen und dabei nichts vom typischen ost & kjex-humor vermissen lassen. wie das genau klingt? vom jazzigen intro von honky tonk, über die extrem tanzbare bassline von chachacha, bis zu den tropischen xylophon-klängen in down river und dem fast schon spirituellen summen von easy bietet dieses album ein extravagantes feuerwerk für die ohren. und das spürt man vor allem bei den einzigartigen und energiegeladenen live-shows der skandinavier. schön, dass es noch künstler gibt, die uns daran erinnern, nicht alles zu ernst zu nehmen.

lobster theremin present their first label album, a double lp from chicago resident and elusive young talent, chicago jim. having cut his teeth on a life growing up in the windy city, jim s reverent ability to spin synthopian tales of old-school chicago and the birth of house music are a genuine reflection of a talent rarely seen at the helm of records in the post-00 s. label head jimmy asquith discovered the album online, originally released through chicago tape imprint pretty all right, and after streaming one track said tape was swiftly purchased and absorbed.

giallo disco journeys further east with the release of baskin. our first original soundtrack written by turkish composer volkan akaalp for the short film by enfant terrible can evranol (to my mother and father). baskin tells the story of four cops discovering a nightmare of lovecraftian proportions during a routine investigation. this incredible soundtrack is an eastern twist on the works of fabio frizzi, industrially corroded by early 90s r&s records. shot independently in istanbul, turkey, during the height of the gezi riots baskin has been described as disgusting. disorienting. brilliant by horror director eli roth. comes with a full colour sleeve and two exclusive remixes on the b-side by giallo disco heads vercetti technicolor and antoni maiovvi. things are about to get weird...

espai music are proud to present energy 52, the first and long-awaited espai release from the inimitable spada.
having received the demo, we were in no doubt that this would warrant an inaugural and exclusive vinyl release. our finest of the year, the track embodies all that we love about electronic music with a fusion of rhythm, energy and emotion. a true masterclass.
it is fitting, then, that we recruit two of technos best loved stalwarts to offer pre-eminent interpretations. taho, known for his releases on labels f comm, delsin and ovum (to name a mere few) delivers a utopian techno piece with detroit flavour. jim enhances his bountiful reputation further with a groovy dancefloor filler and another sprinkle of detroit.

the recordings for the wires cracked were completed in a frenzied two week period in october of 2012. i had mentioned in discussing a previous albums construction that i prefer to forget how i build any particular electro-acoustic amalgam. this is so that i dont get to precious with them, so that i could refine them further, so that the sounds themselves speak beyond their aggregate parts. with the album being relatively fresh in my mind, i can still recall various components to the wires cracked -- the desolate howl of a metal screen activated by a desert wind, the hissing air compression from the cooling apparatus for a laser at the slac national accelerator laboratory operated by stanford university, and the tremolo rhythms from a thin wire that still get me thinking fondly of günter schickert -- but much of the caustic drone, thrumming reverberation, and tactile grit thoroughly escapes me. that is probably for the best, since these various parts speak to an existential rupturing, the collapse of the self, the aftershocks of dark energy, and a belief in the hope for renewal.

nice price deal !!! ltd 2013 repress, vinyl only release

ostfunk goes east! ostfunk newcomer eric may tromba und match hoffman bieten poppig-groovigen sound mit trompete und harmonica - gute laune mit einem glückseligen jauchzer und innovativen berlin balkanbeats - deep und uplifting gleichzeitig!

the jim jones revue veröffentlichen mit >its gotta be about me< die erste single aus ihrem kommenden studio-album >the savage heart<. der track wurde von jim sclavunos (grinderman/nick cave & the back seeds) produziert und von jim abbiss (arctic monkeys/dj shadow) abgemischt. die b-seite der 7 inch enthält den exklusiven non-album-track >rompah stompah<.

nice price deal !!! es war liebe auf den ersten beat. liebestrunken kündigt sich zum 1. mal dieses jahr die ep der kollektiv ost jungs auf ihrem eigenen label an. ihr original von >love< sendet innige handküsse durch die lüfte, wohingegen >show me< herzzerreißende love letters from berlin verschickt. während die bunten bummler (8bit) aus mannheim wie ein dreckiger flirt, der einem so schnell nicht mehr aus dem kopf geht daher kommen, zeigt lula circus (acker records) auf typisch italienisch charmante art und weise ihre zuneigung. eine traumpärchenkonstellation mit der schmetterlinge-im-bauch-garantie!

na wen haben wir denn da? da kommt das kleine, niedliche reh >tilli< daher. mit im gepaeck das erste re(h)lease auf dem neuen berliner label >youre so sweet<. sowohl >traeumer< auf der a seite als auch >tilli< auf der b seite laeuten mit ihren housigen und melodischen klaengen den sommer ein. die erste pressung ist streng limitiert auf 200 exemplare, jedes ein unikat mit handbemalten covern von kindern im alter von 5-10 jahren. bleibt nur noch zu sagen >es ist fruehling, wunderbar. nicht mehr lang und der sommer ist da<

bacalao & sonnes >dont stop pushin ep< is keeping all its promises with two straight forward club tracks, both filled with soulful vocal lines driven by hard hitting synths. the stunning remix is created by kollektiv ost.

the only thing that keeps dam swindle from actually being from detroit is that they are born and raised in amsterdam, a little over 6000 kilometers away. so even though they’ve got their 4 feet firmly positioned on dutch soil, their heads and hearts are rooted deep into the soul of the motor city.

this is the debut vinyl release from up & coming producer jim morton. the 12 inch presents two different flavours of the jungle sound. the a side is nyc-dub, a heavy duty track with plenty of pace and energy. an atmospheric vibe is present but the production still carries enough weight with the beats and sub to work the dance floor. think ray keith meets breakage!
on side b, >underwater chord< is again a jungle bass tune but on a different vibe. it is a brighter sounding track, due to the chords and sounds used, which wouldnt be out of place in a liquid style production. with both tracks there is a tip of the cap towards the old skool sound.

being a musical vagabond involves quite some illustrious stories and quite some adventures. four of those are captured on this exciting record. in his housey remix of >b1000<, andre kronert tells about an acoustic sunrise. based on driving sub-basses, he piles up layers of harmonic pad sounds and light melodies. the minimal plot of the original version by kollektiv ost roams twilight sceneries and explores single sounds and effects. schaeufler & zovsky give insight into a both relaxed and go-getting attitude towards life. their contribution >leafs< combines dreamy melodies with very lively and functional rhythms. in his own version of this acoustic tale, mollono.bass concentrates on a catchy groove and creates a very inspiring, deep and perfidious hypnotic atmosphere.

qore 3.0 is a new concept by the biggest hard dance event promoters in the world q-dance. with this new concept they wanted to melt several streams from the hardcore scene together. with a packed heineken music hall in november 2011 they managed to mixup the styles in one room and people went nuts. a fresh new concept to give the scene an extra boost. the soundtracks of this event are made by 3 separate artists who gave their vision and made smashing tracks.

shanti kommt urspruenglich aus dem sanskrit und bedeutet ruhe oder frieden. die beiden jungs von kollektiv ost finden diese ruhe und frieden an den seen und in den wäldern in ihrer heimat der mecklenburger seenplatte. diese ruhe inspiriert sie zu tracks, die selbst den tief in sich ruhenden ur-mecklenburger ein wohlwollendes lächeln entzaubern, den kopf zum nicken und das tanzbein zum schwingen bringen. so geschehen auf der seenplatte006. sie bringt uns mit shanti und a forrest called mulu zwei techhousetracks der feinsten sorte.

a debut release for both band and label, parisian duo paradis bring two eloquently produced tracks to beats in space in the form of the >parfait tirage / la ballade de jim< 12 inch (bis001). admirers from afar of dj tim sweeneys weekly on air institution of 12 years (from which the label takes its name), paradis submitted demos hoping they might hack it for some play time. reared on classical and jazz, turned young hip hop rebels, turned teen club crawlers, and then university machine tinkerers, simon meny & pierre rousseau grew out of genre jumping while young enough to stay ahead and settle into music making centered around melody and emotion.

split ep by klangkultur ost (kko) and minupren.

kollektiv ost ist zurück auf ihrem eigenem imprint. die jungs praesentieren uns die mia mika ep, zwei frische groovige tech house nummern, unterstuetzt von einem slamming veitengruber remix (8bit, brise)! auf der a seite finden wir den titel mia, der ein wirkliches groovemonster auf dem floor sein wird. auf der b seite praesentiert uns veitengruber seinen remix. die hauptmelodie geht tief in deinen verstand und der groove ist 100 prozent veitengruber! der zweite titel auf der b seite ist ein deep grooviger tech-house brenner. die philosophie ist recht einfach, jedes neue release sollte ein wenig besser werden als das vorherige!

jim rivers is a dj and producer that needs very little introduction and he makes his dieb audio debut with a powerful, old school tinged production entitled >junk<. jim has displayed a huge range in style and scope in his studio work this is evident in the bulk and variety of his discography. his recent foray into classical, dancefloor friendly techno has yielded impressive results and garnered widespread recognition and praise. >junk< is a prime example of this direction.
we have put together another impressive supporting cast for this release drafting the mighty roberto rodriguez to provide us a standout, deep, emotional journey of a remix as well as newcomer and man to watch, teva, who turns in a superb, bumping, jacking groover of a remix that rounds up the affair with a bang!

one of the major players in oslos disco scene joachim dyrdahl aka diskjokke returns to full pupp with his new original track takt raver, a shiny example for his melodic, epic yet jacking style where almost fragile melodic fragments, stomping grooves, simmering acidlines and air-horns magically gel together. label boss and discoverer prins thomas takes us on a space walk with his marvelous psychedelic remix of 1987 which will appear in its original version on diskjokkes forthcoming second album on smalltown supersound. on the flip excentric duo and food geeks ost & kjex ( diynamic ) serve up a whole menu with several courses and a huge variety of flavours: their remix of interpolations makes itÆs entree as a jerky, crunchy afro-beat style funker followed by aromatic, earthy house chords before a well-rounded finish of tangy acid lines and hints of bitter-sweet melodies. sink your teeth (and ears) into this!!!

with a sound that straddles electro, funk, disco and house, oslo based duo ost & kjex return with their second long-player cajun lunch on hamburg based imprint, diynamic. the debut album, to their big surprise awarded them a nomination for best electronica album at the norwegian grammys and the pair continued to develop their sound on releases such as more songs about cheese and revolutionary tarts, how not to be a biscuit and boston food strangler. since then the food boys have awoken, got their hands on some serious sounds and started shredding out tunes aimed at the dance floor.
