after a lengthy break from the electronic music world, genotype is back with an lp for exit records and provides a lesson in stripped back dub influenced music at approximately 170 bpm. having started his music career in the mid nineties under the legendary alias just jungle, with releases on the massively influential labels of that era such as trouble on vinyl, renegade hardware and reinforced records, its no surprise that he has managed to capture the essence of rawness in his recent music akin to the early years of jungle. many producers have tried and failed to bring back the old skool sound with an original flavor but genotype has managed this by resisting the temptation to lash in the tired old classic breaks and instead has drawn for the more organic sounding percussion and drum kits. the dubbed out theme runs throughout the album paying homage to his love for west indian music which he has been involved in for many years and naturally influences the music he creates. genotype is a man of few words and prefers to let his music do the talking so check out the album and draw your own conclusions.

nice price deal !!! prinzhorn dance school announce their return with new single – >seed, crop, harvest.< we havent heard a thing from tobin prinz and suzi horn for three years (their debut lp was released on dfa back in 2007) but theyve been far from work-shy. they toured extensively, then came home and built their own bespoke recording studio (the red shed) – and learned how to use it. time consuming endeavors which saw them drop off the music radar. which might just explain the title of the equally charged b-side >off the radar, off the system<. in their own words: >weve been busy. just not busy making records. you have to live too. you can only write so many songs about motorway service stations and airports<. they recorded and mixed both songs themselves in the red shed, with bob weston taking on mastering duties. …prinzhorn dance school are back! and dfa could not be more proud

everything from a small room. a few friends joke and start to record something.. something strange, indecipherable, or maybe just their souls. a voice begins to sound diffuse, catchy, distorted, hot. what happened to them on in that room don t know, but it was enough to convince us that this was a true story, unique ,inimitable. hooved was amused to construct a simple, yet many artists have come out of my mind, since the scsi-9: anton e maxim have made a pop song like this phoebe, that seems to be everywhere, but didn t think hitherto.. barrytone, new project of korablove, we delight rolled, cuts batteries and more pressing reason, unlikely to fade in your shelves. echonomist in greece seems to fall after many years in his bedroom, and start playing with the same old things, but with the eyes of this. finally tuccillo helps us find a very specific connotation, destination, disco. vinyl seems to sail on his last tour, but in the digital ve rsion will still expect the memories: l original track of hooved, version reinterpreted version of the cool voice hvoya, and the last train, the remix of dualism. a man and a woman summed up in just under 13 minutes all monsters and insecurities, words and glances, the soul of a gesture that turns into projects, loop, hours, bpm, second. apparel is pleased to present phoebe ep.
