ideen zwischen bollywood und beethoven: zweites album der us-indie-rocker.einige bands bleiben immer bei ihrem alten strickmuster, andere ver?ndern sich von album zu album radikal. vampire weekend haben bei ihrem zweiten album weder das eine noch das andere getan. oder vielleicht beides: >wir klingen mehr wie vampire weekend als auf der ersten platte< meint denn auch schlagzeuger christopher tomson. dabei sprudelt >contra< ?ber an frischen ideen, es pr?sentiert sich dem h«rer kurz und straff durchkomponiert (zehn titel in 39 minuten), die songs setzen sich fast unmerklich mit so schwierigen themen wie verlust, angst und dem tod auseinander. ein gewagtes, ein gelungenes unterfangen. die aufnahmen begannen im januar 2009 in new york, nur zwei wochen nachdem die jungs von ihrer 18-monatigen welttournee zur?ckkamen.
auf >contra< haben verschiedene musikalische stile, kunstformen und philosophien ihren einfluss genommen: third wave ska, the hallelujah chicken run band, brasilianischer baile-funk, kongolesische daumenklaviere, repo man, reggaeton, bollywood, philip roth, beethoven, dancehall und die beastie boys wurden dezent und kultiviert verarbeitet.

excellent dubby deep house ...

nach dem ueberwaeltigenden erfolg des ersten samplers dirty laundry aus dem jahr 2004 gibts jetzt mehr country songs interpretiert von afroamerikanischen kuenstlern...

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
kebacid is the production alias for turbo all-stars jesper dahlbäck and jori hulkkonen. their previous releases on jespers defunct blank ltd are some of the best acid tracks of the decade. this is a monster that ought to keep all the die-hard turbo fans happy.
enjoy!

excellent raw and groovin / spooky techhouse

first extract from the forthcoming album >dreamer are you sad< to come out soon, produced by peter deimel (deus, the kills). limited edition 7 inch full of electric breaks and noisy guitars bullying the apparent wiseness and light melodies, calling on pretty convincing influences like can, robert wyatt, radiohead, or sufjan stevens...

he making of this record inadvertently began in cuba in january 2008. powershovelaudio was recording in la havana some of the best contemporary cuban singers and musicians. the resulting recordings were of an inspiring beauty. the situation was that powershovelaudio had this outstanding collection of voices, woods and brass, all infused by the tropical warmth. it was first-class material that should be put in the best hands possible, then maayan came to mind. ônight longö is a synthetic work. maayan has inexplicably, quickly and with incredible precision captured the essence and the expressivity of the cuban musicians and taken it to a hitherto unknown place. maayan is of course well-known for her diligent talent in inserting voices of quality in her mixes, but in this occasion the result is more than surprising. instead of concentrating in her signature minimal beats, maayan has experimented with different cadences, depths and moods, leaving behind her swirl a disconcerting record of inspired beauty. this art in this record is graced with photography by one of the best and most influential photographers in the world: moriyama daido. maayan asked moriyama san for permission to use the cover image, a request which moriyama san, after listening to the record, gladly accepted

two super smooth analogue house tracks from jus-ed. top notch quality as we are used to it from the man.

>an expansive epic about the mysteries of birth, death, and the origins of life (and re-living)<

first vinyl pressing of twin infinitives since the original vinyl issue in 1990. after moving to san francisco, royal trux released the highly experimental double album twin infinitives. this album remains an extreme work on the periphery of rock music, worthy of being compared to lou reeds metal machine music and suicides debut album. at only four subdivided tracks, none of which clock in under 15 minutes, the record has plenty of time to weave a mesmerizing web that is sometimes menacing, sometimes startling. for all of its high brow allusions, twin infinitives nearly reeks of vice, a dark, sordid feel pervades the record, and the listener can almost picture the band recording in a filthy apartment in the middle of the night in various states of intoxication and debauchery.

max trax records returns after a one year hiatus with the slammin westbourne park dubs ep vol. 1 by dj and producer aaron ross. what you get here are four massive tracks with a definite underground old school touch, all of them being sure shot winners guaranteed to send the crowd into a frenzy thanks to their deep relentless grooves and the hypnotizing synths and chords used. deep, simple, very effective - just the way we love it.

was für ein kracher. der mann ist gut !!

die pixies sind schon klasse? nicht nur der nirvana frontman nannte die pixies seine helden?

two years ago, honest jons travelled to lagoswith the great drummer tony allen, to make his first recordings there since his time with fela kuti an album entitled lagos no shaking, a classic of contemporary afrobeat. since then, the label has widely commissioned numerous responses to those new sides. from legends of dance music culture like basic channel in berlin, for example, and founding father of detroit techno, carl craig, and young tigers like dizzee rascals newham generals, mia producer diplo in baltimore, and carioca sensations bonde do role from rio de janeiro. and newrecordings from cairo, saturn, bogota and kingston, jamaica fresh interpretations or complete reworkings by the space jazz pioneersalah ragab, a street brass band descended from sun ras arkestra, highlife inspired afro colombian drummers from the maroon village of san palenque de basilio, and a veteranof count ossies mystic revelation of rastafari.

classic sounding vocal businezz on the brand new label!! its all about soul avengerz mixes!!

third album young desire, again captures the fervour witnessed on lapkos live shows. taking in themes of vulnerability and anxiety beneath hardened exteriors, aching feelings, pressure and confusion, the album is a mental trip back to the schoolyard, where tough guy antics and leather armor cant hide the convulsions underneath. theres new depth and dynamic in the bands expression, fitting for a gang of seasoned rock musicians. these two art school dropouts and metal worker have come a long way from harjavalta (though they still gather there to rehearse and play) and have evolved as a band and as friends.

dies ist ein hit unserer bescheidenen meinung nach. nicht so einer der laut >hier !!< schreit und dann wieder weg ist. eher einer der stetig aus dem hintergrund rüberwinkt und bald zu einem guten freund wird
