with their first two daptone albums – get an understanding, and as featured singers on como now – the como mamas established themselves as three of the strongest voices in gospel music today.
in december of 2015, they cemented that reputation by taking their first trip from their home in como, ms up to harlem, ny to crush the apollo theater as part of the daptone super soul revue. taking full advantage of their presence in town, the daptone crew brought ester mae wilbourn, della daniels, and angelia taylor into the house of soul the week after the show to join forces for the first time with the musicians and studio that has defined their label’s sound. jimmy hill, thomas brenneck, homer steinweiss, and bosco mann, all stalwarts of the daptone stable, came together as “the glorifiers band,” to put down a churning musical foundation for these amazing singers. the results are some of the heaviest tracks that daptone has cut to date. if you don’t like raw, soulful gospel music, you’re really gonna hate this one. move upstairs is a real mother!

vincenzo needs little introduction - the veteran producer and dj has been a fixture on the scene for years, releasing his distinctive brand of classy deep and techy house on a number of key labels. returning to poker flat, he teams up with the mega talented cari golden for this killer three track ep. cari hails from la, an accomplished singer & songwriter and a part of band narcotourist. she lends her skills to never go back a lush yet edgy deep bomb built around slinky groove shot through with vincenzos trademark drama and tension. cari brings the track to the next level with her vocals - both seductive and cautionary. smash tv (holger zilske and kai preussner) bring a sick remix to the table with their version - heading to deeper territory and seemingly primed for the after hours vibe. next up is thats the way an instrumental that sees vincenzo revel in some old school chord progressions and tension / release dynamics to make a sure-fire floor weapon.

walrus has no fear! by taking care of the maiden release on his newborn label “basic moves” he shows the spiritual direction and marks the blueprint for future offerings. the concept is simple: a 12” always has two different sides. one track on each side, each track a different mood. “full of feeling” resonates like the synthesis of an endless night encoded in washes of sounds. twisted, alienated vocal signals communicate in deep space to form a teasing, never-ending, spine-tingling groove. the weekend lingers on, the dream is not over. “among the thugs” is stripped down music for abandoned warehouses. a distorted vision of bleep techno and druggy chicago acid house hides deep in the quirky waves of this wobbly and moody crowd mover. the ghosts of after hours haunting sweaty warehouse clubs from the past seem to float over these excellent tracks. walrus refers to the best of all eras but forges his own unique stamp of modern dance music. underground clubs are where his music comes alive.

a panoramic -wide screen- music, as cinema fans might say, and which sounds like the missing link between the grandeur of richard warner and the orchestral work of someone like nick cave. this is the ambition underlying rite of the end by the polish composer stefan wesolowski, the second album to be released at ici d’ailleurs after kompleta in 2015.

castanea records returns with its seventh release, we are talking again about an lp this time signed by paradroid. the artist is the new entry in the label and returns after a long time with an album that draws a definitely microhouse sound which characterizes him being a pioneer of this genre. an old school sound unique and characteristic perhaps missing in the market since long. 8 tracks cared in minimum and the high quality details mixed and registered 100% in analog tape. this icing cannot miss in the disk bag of any connoisseur in gender or non. there will be a novelty even on artwork level, this time we have decided to adapt to release a beautiful gatefold rough collectible cover. vinyl only!

the trap – dom & roland the only -dat- master copy of this track was lost 20 years ago in 1997 somewhere between dom s studio and music house in holloway road. dom has been searching for this holy grail of -amen choppage- since, the only reference to it a crusty recording of a grooverider show from 1998. at various points there have been glimmers of hope of the wearabouts of the track in its entirety, with much excitement from avid followers who have given -the trap- a status akin to a cult classic film. many years, rifled sheds, boxes and lofts later, the breakthrough everyone is waiting for happens. it is christmas 2016 and a subversive character from australia sends in the full original quality version, recorded from dat tape, to dom & roland productions hq. after a full going over in dom’s lab and a wonderful new mastering job by beau at 1087 the amen legend known only as -the trap- is ready to be unleashed. swarm – dom & roland depending on who you ask the dubplate of this track from 1996 was called dark skies or the swarm. one of the first tracks to feature dom s reworked alternating clean and distorted -flow break- which later went on to become a layer in dom s famous -tramen- break. swarm features the switch from light to dark dom has become famous for. featuring one of the largest mentasm basses ever cut on a record alongside the -subway- thump bass that dom later used when producing the -ed rush hit record- of the same name. it has remained an exclusive gem in dom s vaults until now. originally only cut on plate by the a list of metalheadz blue note, this blueprint of bass is finally seeing a release this year. dj play: aphex twin, amon tobin, fabio, grooverider, peshay, loxi, andy c, break, fierce, doc scott, dbridge, goldie, ant tc1, gridlok, marcus intalex, sb81, ulterior motive, noisia

bunkr enslave dust-coated synthesizers, dilapidated drum machines and rusty fx boxes to craft 4/4 tunes for their impatient overlords. their vision is clear they will make techno, they will make house, they will make electronica, and you will listen and dance. its not yet clear if bunkr is the work of one frenzied human or many lazy individuals but we do know one thing - the ringleader is one james dean, who previously released as lost idol on labels such as pork recordings, nature, final frontier and cookshop. following a prolonged spell of writing music at slow tempos, dean initiated bunkr as a reactionary desire to speed things up. too much time had been spent just sitting around - it was time to stop sitting and start dancing. true to their vision, here we have cloud chaser, a bubbling jam backed with a huge remix from shan, who flips the mix with dramatic strings, sprinkles of magic dust and massive amen breaks. no less impressive is junos revenge, a track youd turn up on your headphones while taking a nice afternoon stroll on the moon, on a sunny morning after a long interplanetary rave. igor tipura delivers the rework, complete with a marching percussion workout and acid chemtrails that will send you right back to 1993.

after reviving his 16-bit soul with rampantly joyful and excessively hedonistic escapades in new york, the now newly-named sonikku (casting off the dj moniker of old and focussing purely on his namesake) takes refuge in the legendary high altitude temple, rising from the forest through the clouds and to a monumental blue-hued floating structure. sky sanctuary.
sonikku’s warm, lilted audio recordings from time spent there tell a story of two sonikku’s. one, a young producer, all scorched drum carnage with fruit basket plugins that betray a balearic leaning that defied their age (the b-side). then the second sonikku. pure vibes, positive waves and solid life lessons gleaned all the way from the sky sanctuary (a-side).
cloud surfin, sky swimming, escapist, fantasy-sanctuary blissfulness.

i did not know what achievements, what mockery, even what tortures awaited me. i knew nothing, and i persisted in the faith that the time of cruel miracles was not past. - stanislaw lem (solaris, 1961)
this paragraph from solaris, the novel written in 1961 by stanislav lem, is the starting point for the concept this 30drop album has been built upon. science fiction masters like lem are one of the greatest influences for the artist, who devised this album after the mental challenges that humans should overcome in a future: encounter with beings from other civilizations: capable of interacting with us in a totally unthinkable way so far.

the latest release from serbia’s soul print recordings brings together the two l’s, leonid and laak. up first is leonid on the a side with two tracks urania 1 and 2, possibly named after the muse of astronomy, which makes sense, as both tracks have a cosmic feel about them. urania 1 starts off with a nice string sound that permeates the space before the drums start to really take effect half way through. urania 2 has a more house feel about it, with the acid bass line sitting nicely along the deep pads. over to the b side and laak takes control. delving into late night territory with haunting layered leads & pads these tracks are typical quality by laak. featuring label artwork once again by fellow serb, bratislav milenkovic and pressed on a beautiful sky blue, yesterday for tomorrow is a thing of aural and visual beauty.
