while all cuts on the 105 release share filthy, stone-cold, elemental rhythms � pounding, energetic and hypnotic 4/4 kick drum slaps � the devil is, like with all kobosil productions, in the aesthetic details. �40000 l� uses gargling synth patterns and howling horns to dramatic effect, �bei nacht h (178)� contrasts the kick with a harsh, tinny drumbeat and menacing melody pad, creating a nightmarish vibe.
�backmask n� on b1 offers heavily alienated vocal samples alongside rave-reminiscing synth stabs and staggered hi-hat percussion. �derange� closes this four-tracker with grainy drone echoes and throbbing, sizzling synth pulses.

limited 2017 repress !! with the much anticipated debut album of afefe iku, yoruba records presented the first official banger of 2008 with mirror dance. with its ridiculous driving beat, and one of the most memorable melody lines we ve heard on the dance floor, mirror dance is another one of those dance floor monstrosities that afefe iku seems to naturally pull out of his magic hat. on the b side, osunlade takes it deep with his yoruba soul mix featuring spoken word king oveous maximus. with deeper rhythms and a stripped groove, this one takes you back to the basement house parties allowing you to go into trance and zone out to the words of ove. brace yourselves, yet again

here comes argoman, the antihero of disco music. inspired by the 1960s b movie super hero argoman, the name literally means lazy man, however its also a combination of three italian producers names, who started the project about one year ago. the track chimicalissimo merges the vibrant rhythms of disco with the emotional approach of modern electronic music. its a peak-time dancefloor banger completely produced with analog synths and drum machines. the tune is a proper voyage between syncopated rhythms and heavy basslines soaked with synth melodies that often recall idm progressions. the dub version gives more space to a melancholic piano melody that culminates through analog arpeggios to an unstoppable build. black spuma remix finally turns the track into a slow burning disco monster.

it took me a couple of years get invited to christophe de groot�s (aka circadian rhythms) homebase, and a couple more years to dive into his sonic archive. but time tells and basic moves 02 is what came out. the two tracks were recorded at earguard studio in brussels around 1996, at a moment when his interest was moving away from club music towards other golden musical horizons. �frequency� is a macro tech-house track in mid tempo.
i�m super happy i could archive it on wax because we almost fucked up the master dat tape by blowing up the player during a marathon listening session at his place. we had to open the device, unroll the tape across his house (full of records) and fold it back into the mini dat cassette. after a few hours and twenty metres of tape, the problem was solved and the tracks archived: �a dose of authenticity at a time of post-counter-cultural stagnation�. �house speaker call� originated in proto-techno forms. christophe never sees techno as a type of music but as a process. as a producer, collector and deejay he always dives deep into authentic forms of electronic music. deg�s antic personality shines out in the middle of the harsh beat-driven electro/techno track like a hopeful melody passing by on its elliptic orbit. tune your cells into his vibrations and get ready for these two timeless club tracks.

earth trax is kruczynnski s take on strictly club material, yet channeling the very same baltic melancholy he uses in his other projects. following on from his 12inchs on rhythm section and dopeness galore, his phonica 12inch begins with lavventura, a deep yet glittering house production with a piano led melody we couldn�t get enough of, so we present two versions across the a-side. the main version is preceded by a fantastic dub version, shades of kerri chandler shine through on this one! on the flip his otherworldly interpretation of house and techno continues with nokturn and hg, both pad-rich, ethereal productions of the highest quality that perfectly compliment the a-side and round out the record in style.

the next ep on just this comes from octual, an established figure on the dutch underground techno circuit. his 3rd release to date is an exploration into melody and beat composition � a journey through uncharted territory. �jupiter�s moon� presents a fleeting view of different landscapes - claps and hi-hats depict the lights and shadows of a sublunary word. �untold places� reaches an otherworldly place where rhythm and metre counteract each other and obscure sounds sway us in and out of reality. amsterdam based electronic pioneer sterac provides two remixes, analysing and repurposing the molecular details of octual�s productions. his first rework of �jupiter�s moon� provides a stunning and heartfelt view, exploring the intersection of each artist�s approach. for the dub version he reveals a darker sentiment, creating a dancefloor oriented secret weapon.

welcome to the long awaited 5th vinyl output of huehelix. this time, we focus on ryuji takeuchi, who brings 4 versatile factors to complete the renaissance artistique ep. factor a is no doubt the most straight techno style banger, which ryuji himself has been dropping in a peaktime of his every set at gigs in berlin, rotterdam, osaka and more, that always takes audience to another place. factor b shows a strong influence from ebm, noise, industrial music, which can be a starter of a set, with mad and strong break before its peaktime. factor c is for sure the strongest and hardest track in this ep, with high bpm with crazy acid synth melody. factor d closes the ep with percussive and synthy aspects. this ep really indicates how ryuji has evolved for his entire career and where he�s heading to. definitely the one not to miss. please keep your eyes and ears open, huehelix never stops.

after delivering the fh05, label co-owner pablo tarno is back at the controls with the fh09. the a-side features the more clubby cuts, ranging from the broken beat and dramatic jazzy piano chords of �horizons� to the more driving house beat and playful synth melody of �gunkan�. the b-side is all about the laidback grooves, �bitchplease� is a heavy dubby bass affair with serene pads that will lighten any mood, while �preemo� brings back pablo�s deep trip hop roots, closing off the record with a classy slowed-down number.

emerging from what sounds like the unknown depths of outer space, new artist icore drops a debut ep on osiris music uk lled with ve exercises in hypnotic, polyrhythmic tension. the a-side�s two tracks �sigil� and �status field� feel like two parts of a whole, each establishing a minimal, kick-heavy march in 6/8 that would perfectly ll the cavernous hull of an abandoned mining vessel, lurching through empty parts of the galaxy to the sound of ominous drones and malfunctioning, high-end bleeps. the b-side is more cinematic in its scope, with opener �substance from shadow� summoning a distinctly b-movie vibe in its melody, before both �claimed by night� and �axiom� retreat into darker, more ambient territory, the former thick in sub- bass kicks, the latter ramping up the dread with unnerving repetition.

uncertainty. no set route. destination unknown. younger than me know it s the journey that counts, and they premiere with quite the musical journeyman. the dulcet tones of none other than the don, fred ventura, accompany the title piece, a grooving melody ticks over against clean beats. san proper kick up some dust, adding some grit and soul to the original. the flip takes on a darker aspect. the giallo flavoured -not for all- looms and lurks before the dream woven depths of -don demorder-.

elephant moon proudly welcomes one of our good friends from barcelona, sonodab.
sonold is the starting point for this four-track ep. there�s a distinct air of mystery looming over this minimal workout. the globulous bassline bounces along supporting by clapping beats with an eerie tone that prevails throughout.
this is followed by more alluring atmospherics on �aporia�, a track that has an elastic b-line and every once in a while an enchanting melody drifts in, switching up the vibe turning things a little more dreamlike.
turn the record and prepare to embark on a �random night�. this is sonodab turning up the energy levels and taking you on a trip into another dimension to close out the ep �elecmann�, plays out like an ode to the good old electro days, slightly reminicent of juan atkins� early work as model500. like the rest of the tracks on this release, sonodab adds soft pads in places to change the mood and keep things moving.

barbir from les points delivers a truly inspiring ep for the 14th release on concealed. the musical range is wide, spanning from detroit flavoured house music and techno, to more futuristic breakbeat stuff with hints of electro. tied together with swirling acid melodies and deep pads, mixed with uplifting beat and bass jams, all laid down over 6 quite different cuts. as a special treat, we find two collaboration with louh on the b side as well... yay!

nice price deal !!! beaumont steps up for the next release on hotflush, with his >never love me ep<. the young scottish producer michael rintoul created a slice of hypnotic r&b dream pop on last years >blush reponse ep<. it was described by inimitable brighton-based blog 20jazzfunkgreats as having produced, >by a strike of genius and inspiration<, the authentic soundtrack to >a really cool z-series 80s thriller<. this time round, the vocal work on the title track is reduced to a barely intelligible processed warble, which provides the scaffolding that supports the sparse drums, synth washes and plucked melody. >uptown< begins with carpenter-esque keys of dread, but is quickly drenched in a warm shower of shimmering keys that tussles with the shuffling half-beat. the >rendez-vouz< could be on mars, cosmic winds billowing, until a snaking bassline throbs into sight, beaumonts impeccably programmed drums playing off against the tense synths. star crossd lovers indeed upon the eps closer, >verona beach<, the tidal back and forth grounding, the sound of the sun setting on a miami vice beach, but disturbed into syncopated sense.

leipzig�s r.a.n.d. muzik are perhaps better known for pressing records than releasing them, but to demonstrate their new picture disc press they ve curated a limited edition compilation lp for reflective home listening (and viewing). featuring lowtec, consulate and leipzig locals panthera krause and leibniz to name just a few, over its 8 tracks the collection moves from melody-driven idm to dark, atmospheric ambience, through to reflective electronica. skilfully pressed on two sides of 12� plastic with artwork by marijn degenaar this is surely a must-have for every sensible record collector.

(180 g vinyl) there is something wonderfully uplifting and naive about the mittle european b-movie pop and library music of the 1970s. an imperfect perfection of sound palette and melody, creating & encapsulating a whole world of hypnotic intrigue.this feeling is what comes to mind when listening to the debut album of californian scott gilmore, which is reminiscent (in more modern times) of the pre moon safari air.

long time collaborators jason letkiewicz and nicholas dawson colab on the a side with their improvised confused house jam style. there off-the-cuff technique is subtle in its arrangement. ste-018 starts slow and expands with sublime patterns of melody and subtle drum fills. on the flip side, bookworms ste-101 changes the mood. a droning bass signal lies beneath driving percussion and surging noise. dissonant chords slowly creep there way into the track inducing hypnosis. zone out. file under stalker music
