boris bunnik goes under many aliases. numerous smaller projects, some huge faceless projects but mostly known and well respected for his conforce project. as versalife he found his way to the clone familia for his night time activities project, and around this same period we just managed to pull out the best suitable tracks for frustrated funk. versalife is electro-techno in its purest form. deep and intense analog rhythms with crisp percussion patterns slightly touching the more experimental side of things. this ep is a nice balanced mixture of industrial drone material to more classic sounding electro with versalifes own signature strength. highly recommended as always!

ashley beedle is one of the pioneers of global dance music. a man with so many different musical hats its dizzying. a man who is as at home playing and producing deep funk, soul and reggae as he is with cutting edge house and techno and everything in-between. a man who has had as many akas and pseudonyms as a wu-tang clan mc. a true inspiration to many of todays crop of djs and producers, including us here at girls music hq.

after a first ep by arnaud linked in a certain way to greece, tablon 002 will come from istanbul. far from us the idea to make a worldwide music label or refer to any old war between two countries. it just happened like that. sarp makes amazing music and we are proud to present his new ep. it is called >i care because you dont<, the artwork is made by nefelie and the mastering by mathieu berthet in paris. as we care a lot about the vinyl thing, our releases appear first on 12 inch vinyl.

echer has been around for quite a while, producing under duffstep & duffdisco to great acclaim he has decided to step out of the limelight and into the shadows. more than a metaphorical manoeuvre, he has already made a name for himself as a manipulator of a cheeky sample and a producer not afraid to add some bombast to the often-linear world of dance music.

amazing! next klap klap by svida. 4 tracks with a mixup between jacking and trippin chicago vibes and pure mind blowing analog detroit techno. brilliant!

away from the hypnotic mayhem of the floating roofscapes, we see fractured images cycling faster. just as clouds follow the wind, airy soundscapes track the low-end groundwork with grainy artifacts bursting in amongst the thick. lost in this surrounding ambience, the b side carves its way with a resonant materiality where shattering hi-hats pull you out of a hypnotic semi-dormant state. (b2) enters a sound voyage, an intimate balance between gloomy atmospheres, dark sirens and repeated upcoming unidentified melodies, that play against the ceaseless motion of the hi-hat motive.

after the zohar comes black dynamite aka ivano tetelepta – another well kept secret in the house music scene. on his city to city ep the man delights us with three raw and extremely funky tracks which display a deep love for oldschool hip-hop beats. in fact, these three tracks oscillate heavily between stripped down, soulinfluenced house and instrumental hip-hop. and everyone who knows tenderpark will immediately understand that this is just the perfect synthesis of some of our main interests.

one of figures most prolific artists, a.mochi offers up his first ever ep for figure spc, with 2 especially subterranean and highly charged tracks. mochi, who last year released his outstanding >primordial soup< lp on figure, continues to tread the line between functional club techno, and post-apocalyptic mechanical soundtracks. the well-defined a side burner, >riff< charges along with textured, woody percussion at its heart, and mochis trademark white noise ensemble pushing the high frequencies. a reduced, classically minimalist work, the track relies on just a handful of elements to induce a real fever on the dancefloor. following closely in its footsteps is >sunset<, a deeper cut with hi-tech atmospheres and intricate percussion at its core. metallic synths surge under mochis wall of bass, and the straight-ahead ebb of the sharp hats and claps edge this monster into even darker zones.

new years deal - behind the highway, near the industrial area, next to the airport, somewhere in the innercity, urban principles fall apart. that leaves the enclaves, mono functionalism and an urban ultra density that local governments are struggling to eradicate. both a cage and a cocoon, there is a space where development opportunities hit the wall. hybrid places that combines urban collapse and >the new culture<, endemic violence and solidarity, all of which is left to the communities to deal with without outside help. when the post-industrial economy becomes sporadic and nothing else takes shape, man is left at the mercy of his environment. techno appears and becomes a parallel between man and the city, as another faceless entity which unifies them. this unity is the result and techno is the process.

unlucky for some but not it seems you or us, dot013 comes comprised of a hat trick of deep and sultry, some would say rnb flavoured slow jams, made for those sexier evenings when you feel the urge to want to nod your head, wine your body and give those hips something of a work out as opposed to just pointing haphazardly to the sky whilst hopping between legs and occasionally pulling your best ooooh listen to that bass line face. though those evenings clearly have their place as well.

perc trax is proud to unveil the debut ep by pinion, known in a former life as us-based producer bobby dowell. pinion is the sound of a man with his own vision of music, sitting somewhere between classic industrial and contemporary techno without slavishly bowing down to either discipline. where the likes of ancient methods and perc are the sound of metal on metal, pinion is more like wood on leather, a ceremonial throb that switches in an instant from tightly locked grooves to more freeform rhythmic patterns.

after the tense and dramatic soundscapes of jason letkiewiczs nzambi lp under his soundtrack guise alan hurst, emotional response have put the tracks to the test for three appropriately oddball remixers. fellow l.i.e.s. affiliate terekke turns out a heavily sedated dub of >nzambi< that rides a pacey house beat but buries everything in delay and reverb. timothy j fairplay brings some serious sleazy 80s electro tones to >parallel sensations<, complete with predatory vocal and thick ladles of synthy goodness. finally, jonas reinhardt cools off the intensity with a blissful ambient version of >before the dawn< which plunges headfirst into a warm bed of melodic drones.

barcelona-to-berlin boy jami bassols, aka jmii, makes his silk debut with nueva york, a loosey-goosey, sensuadelic 5 a.m. den off the gold coast of house. emotional transcen-dance for post-party, religious rave rovers. super psych bliss-bloops, heavy sighs, textural key clouds, angelic piano ambles, spiritual lift-offs. under the moniker aster, bassols released on hieroglyphic beings mathematics label, and as jmii he has created a sort of reincarnation house, dance music for past and future lives, part new age/part gospel, all-in ambient acid. ciento por ciento seda!

the same people behind emotional rescue launch as fine sister imprint in the shape of emotional rescue, with a near perfect insight into how the label will operate thanks to nzambi - a quite stunning full length album from jason letkiewicz under his alan hurst moniker. if you consider yourself an avid purchaser of vinyl, you will no doubt have added some letkiewicz heat to your collection in recent times, with excellent releases as steve summers and innergaze in recent times. the alan hurst project sees the brooklyn producer in more laid back form, indulging his passion for library sounds and experimental electronics with just as much aplomb. allegedly commissioned to soundtrack a film on modern haitian voodoo, nzambi is a woozily intoxicating thirteen track set that opens your senses to a true darkness in this producers palette of sounds that has not really been explored before.

blawan & pariah join forces again under their karenn guise for the fourth installment on works the long nights. 6 tracks of forward thinking techno and electro cut loud by matt colton at air studios and spread over 2 180gm slabs of vinyl. this release also comes with a full sleeve.

nao katafuchi is a new york based japanese artist. living in lower manhattan for more that 20 years, nao has made an internationally interesting mini album lost somewhere between the future and the past. all of the music was made using a semi modern groovebox, guitar, and voice. this musical combination created a new wave cyberpop atmosphere that would not be out of place in a bar in liquid sky, blade runner, or total recall. trashy japanese retro-future pop out of new york city!

nice price deal !!! dennis busch is an artist who is well-known to all pingipung fans for his >james din a4< contributions to our catalogue. this man of many faces has also developed a reputation as visual artist. therefore he decides to present his music under the same name: dennis busch - which we think might be his real one. dennis busch has delivered an enormous output of odd, melodic techno tracks in the last decade – mostly on his own now unfortunately vanished esel imprint (this means donkey).
comes with code for free mp3 download of the full album.

soul 223, a seasoned producer with releases on delsin and souljazz under his belt as well as having a significant pedigree releasing as stasis on peacefrog in the ninetees. eastern promise is a fine balanced ep covering deep sample based jams, spacey disco grooves and sunshine laden strings

bastard jazz is proud to present the debut ep from brussels based production duo eric p & luigi aka monkeyrobot. coming to light through their work as 74 miles away (melting pot music) and tall black guy, who selected their standout >basement infusion< track to be on his tempo dreams compilation album (released in june on bastard jazz), and alliance between the label and m.r. seemed natural.
here on their self titled 12 inch, monkeyrobot deliver four diverse tracks that showcase their skills behind the boards, the keys, with a keen ear for the dancefloor. kicking things off, >brick stomach< is a synth-heavy four-to-the-floor 120 bpm joint that comes off like a floating points visit back in time to 1980s detroit with its rolling snares, arpeggiating synth bassline and cloudy pads. next up, >northern light< filters shimmering space disco vibes through big, thumping instrumental hip-hop drums and moody analog bass. on the flip, >rose gris< takes things in a funkier direction at 100bpm with its syncopated drums, irresistible lead, squelching bassline and all manner of synthesizer explorations. rounding off the ep is >last days<, which still manages to inject a funky 80s analog sound into its melancholy downtempo vibes.

dracula lewis unterschreibt bei souterrain transmissions! aber wer zur hölle ist dracula lewis? der aus transsilvanien stammende produzent bleibt vor allem in der blogwelt ein mysterium, und das obwohl eben diese blogs seine tracks fleißig posten. angeblich lebte er bis vor kurzem noch in einem besetzten haus in mailand, wo er an diversen kunst-installationen getüftelt und einen illegalen club betreibt (oder betrieb). dracula lewis hat ein eigenes label, hundebiss records, heimat für bands der stunde wie hair police, sewn leather und jaws. mit den hundebiss-signings jaws und sewn leather tourte er bereits durch die usa und europa. nun kommen wir mal zur musik. dracula lewis beschreibt diese wie folgt: >expansive, pseudo-horror-flick music that oscillates between ethereal ambience and grinding, zombie-attack noise freakouts<. da ist immer diese seltsame, dunkle magie, die über seinen tracks schwebt. mit >permafrost< erscheint nun zunächst eine auf 500 stück limitierte 12 inch, ein studioalbum ist für märz 2013 geplant.

the second volume in the detroitrocketscience series of cosmic journeys, produced in a low-earth flight plan that vectors between detroit and berlin. >alpha control / workers in orbital habitats< is a suite that takes you from the launch pad at alpha control to the orbital habitats, where vacc-suited, free-fall engineers work in zero gravity. >reentry into martian atmosphere< is the soundtrack to the treacherous reentry into mars unstable atmosphere, a.k.a. the 7 minutes of terror landing window of americas latest martian probe. collectible 10-inch black vinyl format.

total control dislocate expectations with this inaugural home loan records 12 inch. not the charged up paranoid vox/guitar/drums combo that we have become accustomed to through their visceral live shows - instead men with machines producing pensive proto-tech experiments and tense industrial wave. includes the original version of carpet rash which was re-recorded in full band mode for henge beat, and two previously unreleased immersive rhythm tracks formed through collaboration between guitarist mikey young and drummer james vinciguerra. vinciguerra would fire deranged beats down the hole while young would jam over them, watching waves in a trance from his perch at phillip island. on the flip we find two reconstructions from home loan manager michael ozone. carpet rash receives the club re-contextualisation with ozone fully utilising its penetrating synth hook, while new age hop climbs the arabic scale.

new kanada enters the fall 2012 season with some dark angular acidic house. black and medleys >roll the dice< - featuring the voice of rosina – is an old-school blend of disco, ny house and classic toronto warehouse vibes. slightly acidic, with its bubbling juno bassline – and slightly techno with the driving, repetitive beat – this house track should rock the deepest of dancefloors. file somewhere between henry street and early adonis. 5am - no earlier. for the flipside, adam marshall sits down at the controls for a clinical, tight, stripped-down scrubbing, turning the original into a late-night fear edit. broken, diffused drums and lots of black empty space in this one. the lights go out – blackout.
