responsible for organizing the moments event series throughout berlin, i/y is releasing an ep celebrating their collaboration with all the artists who performed and adhered to the moment s concept in the last few years. releasing music from everyone was impossible, but the 4 tracks produced by voiski, blind observatory, schloss mirabell, and i/y give a solid idea of what moments is about.

keeping in line with the trademark birdsmakingmachine sound, comes the fifth release on their self-entitled label, bmm 004. with a more straight-to-the-point approach than its predecessor, the ep starts off on the dance floor, with rumbling bass lines and heavy metallic snares juggling with effects-laden delicacies on the a1s >ahora vengo<. the arrival of >ash but not arthur< on the a2 calms things down bit and takes the listener for a gentle journey through ambient pads and cleverly swinging hi hats, while on the flip, things get a little more bouncy in >oscars critical jack<, which is mostly due to the fact its main ingredient – the solid playful bass line – blends effortlessly with the higher frequency spices, keys, strings and rhythmic parts. the end credits roll down with >bonfume<, another relatively smooth yet jacking swinger that could either be used to kick it up a notch in a warm-up set or be danced to while finding yourself at an afterhour.

repress 2023 , mexico: a hugely satisfying follow-up to past exploits and another step into the future of anthemic pop music.

the last few years have seen chicago footwork rise to international success, and traxmans debut album - *the mind of traxman* on planet mu - played no small part in that. it showcased cornelius fergusons brilliant ability to synthesise the beat digging of classic hip hop with the high-speed abstraction of footworks house-derived beat science. the selection of tracks on this second chapter show a slightly different take on traxman s abilities. instead of bringing in concepts from other genres, he simply creates a wider variety of footwork, made with a minimal, reduced palette. often just one or two samples are selected and diced into brain-blurring cubist puzzles that bear little relation to their original sources, or anything else for that matter.
the double vinyl lp comes with download code.

as liron himself says:>realitivity is my road to finding a new and fresh sound. a sound for which i found a lot of inspiration in my personal musical history of deejaying and buying records over the last 20 years. the album is just as much a journey, as it is a destination from which to move on to the next one, as i look to develop my music whilst not repeating myself.<

the latest bass culture presents an exciting partnership between label boss d julz and his long time friend cassy, resulting in three tracks of the kind of refined house music that you would naturally expect from two well-travelled djs. her global status as a dj ensures cassy is never far from the minds of switched-on house heads, but its a rare treat to enjoy her own productions. when she appears on record she makes it count, and its no different here as her and djulz tap into what makes them tick as djs and dancers alike

despite making a impression with rough-hewn techno records on taanstafl and his own tallmen imprint, brian mitchell aka tallmen.785 is a relative newcomer to the genre. arriving in berlin to continue studying jazz guitar – a craft he’d been learning in new york from legendary jazz musicians ornette coleman and lawrence d. ‘butch’ morris – it was a long night in berghain that steered him toward electronic music

defeating apathy by creating his own world, abdulla rashims music thinks before it speaks. untangeled energy and drive breathes life into the rigid rhythmic structures, where the wild, almost primal, core illuminates the heartfelt and soulful layers within in his music. this musical contradiction between thought and letting go, acts as the base foundation in abdulla rashims music.

limited coloured double vinyl in gatefold sleeve, includes mp3 download card.

fontarrians debut effort for berlin-based label antime offers a glimpse into a fragile yet eclectic spectrum consisting of loopy vocal bits, slowly unwinding washes of dream like ambience, distinctively (s)tumbling almost jazzy percussions and an ever-present, blissful warmth. the latter emanates from and sucks you into what seems to be a world of its own. like a lo-fi attempt at capturing momentary twists of the heart through 10 significantly diverse tracks - imperfect nonetheless - the album feels like a mixtape you ve set out to record for someone special, but somehow never got around to.

refreshing ep on the edge of dark house & tripping techno

as a rave icarus turns to his companion and sighs, *we tried to touch the sun my friend, but we got burned...* these tracks leave a trail of scorched earth behind them while you stand bewildered in their smoking wake. nurture your most wayward desires to these sounds coming from god knows where, and inflict them on the innocent as soon as you can.

ein album im sinne klassischer songwritertraditionen. natürlich angereichert mit anleihen an ihre detail-versessene und floor-berauschende aneignung von house, aber überdeutlich zu einem in sich geschlossenen sound-kapitel verdichtet. es ist ein album, das neben der kooperation mit bostons e-funk wizard tanner ross auf zwei stücken vor allem in zusammenarbeit mit dem englischen sänger und musiker chris james entstand. james, der unter anderem auch mit seiner band stateless auf ninja tune und !k7 veröffentlicht, hat einen wesentlichen anteil an der strahlkraft dieses albums. seine wärmende stimme und seine intuitive entwicklung von gesangsarrangements fruchteten augenblicklich mit den vorstellungen der berliner produzenten und so erarbeiteten sie letztendlich elf gemeinsame stücke ...

dont let these carefree techniques fool you, as big on the dancefloor as your headphones everyone from ben sims to deetron to ben pearce has championed his introverted 12inches. providing the sauce on top, redshape remixes the original twice over, with his disco scope and not so serious mix. with a similar attention to drums and raw sounds, the two remixes arm up what is an already strong release.

new jerseys finest returns to ovum alias free. having been contractually locked down in 2011 harry romeros previous philly outing came under his secretive vaggio pseudonym. the air of mystery surrounding the artist frustrated and excited in equal measure and yet refreshingly freed the ep of any preconceptions. this was after all a debut release, right? the response was overwhelming and lit the touch paper for what was soon to be harrys return to his beloved raw house beats.
