concealed sounds is a brand new label from the copenhagen based producer and dj martinez. the label is set up as a platform for the more deeper shade and experimental sound of techno and house music. it will feature releases by martinez himself, but also showcase some new talents as well as well known colleagues from the scene. and as the label name suggests each release will include a hidden sound, beat, groove or ambient piece. the first release comes courtesy of martinez, and its called: hollow ep. it starts off with a 14 minute piece of modern modular based techno. deep hypnotic rhythms lay down the foundation while high pitched noisy metallic sounds build over the hollow groove, before the baseline kicks in to lift everything to another level. the piece finally breaks down completely, to an almost horror-film-soundtrack like ambience before the groovy rhythms find their way back to bring the track to life again

a collaborative effort between marquis cooper (svengalisghost) and lili schulder (51717), this project was born in the winter of 2013. what can best be described as non-stop electronic erotic cabaret, the duo played a series of improvised performances which served as a structural backbone prior to the recording of this album. finished in merely two weeks, this 8 song double lp acts as a complete listening experience, engrossed in the down beat primitive electronics of the past whilst pushing further into the self-created anti-beat world of today. pulsing tones, off beat drums, melancholic vocals, and overall dark vibes characterize, but do not solely define what it is to truly trust in pain. mastered and cut by matt colton for maximum impact.

emotional especial is the new label from the emotional recordings stable. a sub label to emotional response, especial is though squarely aimed at the floor rather than the head. in a similar vain to the limited 4 eps-only label that was emotional relish, it will merge the sounds and styles that influence contemporary electronic producers, taking in new wave, new beat, ebm and proto-house to create something modern. jamie paton of cage & aviary helms the debut release with bizarre feeling. a youth soaking up punk, dub and new wave, the ep acts at times as a homage to the sounds of new order, the the, kraftwerk and the then other-wordly machine funk emanating out of mid-80s chicago. with both timothy j fairplay and scott fraser aiding and abetting down in the scrutton street bunker studio, with keys, guitar and a heavy dose of space echo, plus hypnotic fx laden vocals from jamie himself, all propel the ep beyond pastische and make the perfect start to especial.

ovatow drops 3 extremely deep journeys into the fog of endless re-verb and delay applications.flame and a thought are 2 electro-techno tracks that are both build on randomly step-sequenced square bass lines, raiser sharp snares and dubbed out melodies drowned in layers of breathing dusty tape delays. visitation dub iii is a different version of an ovatow track, earlier released as part of the viewpoints chapter one compilation, but this time stripped down to the core bass line, reminiscing bcs presence. the release is dedicated to the loss of south rotterdam based dj juvenile jay who played an important roll in the early dj career of frustrated funks head honcho klen, the man behind the ovatow moniker. very much recommended!

*technik* is a slice of sleek, contemplative techno that is far out on a late-night tip, leaving only a bouncing bassline and skipping tech-house beat to hold down the groove amongst the tune’s more ethereal sounds. on the remix, chicagos defend:r (ricardo mirandas alter-ego) takes apart the original to form a hybrid electro style remix laced with sub bass grooves and just the right amount of synths to take it to the next level.
this is the beginning of much more to come from major people.

following on your work as one of the twin pioneers of glaswegian radge-rock in arab strap cant be an easy task. aidan clearly has had other ideas, quite different ideas, and most of them comprise his solo project release via his alter ego, lucky pierre. in these recordings, l. pierre pays an affectionate tribute to the wear and tear of overplayed vinyl, the hiss, scratch and pop of records long loved but worn down. it is the sound of survival, the echoes of a life lived well, moth eaten music of dasness and resilience, of beauty and backbone.

stuck in the 9-5 grind, stifled by the impersonality of constant social media and mobile interaction, contemporary urban life can be suffocating. for a certain breed, release cannot be found in the vast, unpopulated great outdoors. urban animals congregate in heaving warehouses, seeking solace in the liberating beats of the kick drum. they are bound not by association, but through a shared experience of primal relief felt in those shadowy, dance floor corners swelling with the sounds of low end frequencies and brazenly sculpted grooves. this is the urban animals jungle.
