leng records follows up last years out of town album with a selection of remixes and re-works of tracks taken from cantomas second long player ! out of town fused a wide variety of sounds and styles resulting in a beautiful, otherworldly album that moved effortlessly between blissful flamenco, shimmering, slo-mo nu disco, dubbed-out tango and haunting, ethereal soundscapes. the remixers were hand picked by cantoma aka phil mison due to their unique approach to music and their complementary production styles and the result is an album bursting with downtempo and dancefloor led remixes.

2011 collection featuring cuts from shuggie otis, sly & the family stone and aretha franklin.. the old grey whistle test has now been synonymous with quality music for 40 years. although possibly best know as a show for rock music, the show maintained an amazing variety when it came to choosing its artists, it really only had two criteria, 1, that the artists had released an album and 2 that they produced great music. this collection mostly features artists that appeared on the show but also include artists who for whatever reason didnt or couldnt appear on the show.

the sound of garuda: chapter 2 is the brand new mix album from the uks no.1 dj: gareth emery. after the hugely successful first -sound of garuda- gareth emery returns with the second part to the garuda mix compilation story. the concept behind the compilation is to produce a mix from only new exclusive material from garuda, gareths own record label. the 12 tracks on the compilation is a cross selection of electronic styles ranging from uplifting slamming house music, engaging progressive and uplifting trance tracks with many of the tracks being made specifically for the album. it includes 2 brand new gareth emery tracks, which are collaborations with emerging artists. you dont want to miss out on this pearl from one of the grand masters of dance music!

for over a decade mark grusane & mike cole have been a vast music resource for djs, producers, collectors, rare music compilers, and specialty stores around the world. they started individually, each with their love of music. they traded and sold music with those -in the know- for years. in 2004 mark & mike focused their energies into founding mr. peabody records. the business plan and mission was to become a world class resource for all genres of obscure music. until now, their focus has been growing the shop. but the soul of mr. peabody records does not reside in the bricks and mortar the store, or even in the bins of records themselves. the real genius lies in mark & mikes unique ear for music.

you can forgive a band who set out to create something even just a little bit different and get it horrendously wrong, but its tough to have sympathy for a band who shy away from the challenge altogether. such was the case with autokratz on their first album, animal, which, apart from a passable opening track, consisted of a series of bland electronic pastiches Ð dance music that conversely made the listener want to sit and wait it out. that didnt stop the hype building around the duo, though, thanks in no small part to the fact that the album was released through in-vogue french label kitsunŽ music. the confusing positivity surrounding the lp suggesting, perhaps, that style overcomes substance once a record company has received the hipster seal of approval.this time around, however, kitsune has stepped aside, with autokratz releasing the follow-up on their own label, bad life. but has the sense of responsibility that surely comes with this step made them re-evaluate their direction? has it inspired them to inject a much-needed shot of creativity into their work? not a hope. if anything, autokratz descend even further into mediocrity on self help for beginners. once again, their best tunes are loaded towards the front of the album, starting with the lead single, -opposite of love. its far from outstanding, helped in no small part by the terribly contrived lyrics, but does possess a catchy synth melody Ð enough to earn it a place on club playlists, at least. its a similar story with -becoming the wraith, which has peter hook on hand to deliver an overtly new order-esque bassline. beyond that, however, the quality dips dramatically. tracks like -the seventh seal and -r.i.s.e. are typical of the selection on offer, underwhelmingly vapid, derivative tunes which show up a disappointing, but not totally unexpected, scarcity of guile on the part of their creators.where autokratz do excel is as producers Ð a quality evident not only in their own work, but also in their remixes for other artists. unfortunately, this only serves to exacerbate their deficiencies on the other side of the control room desk. ultimately it may mean that, having failed to address the shortcomings of their debut, autokratz will be fated to be filed under -also rans in the annals of music history. thats assuming, of course, that someone out there will actually remember them at all.

a stunning surprise is awaiting: label director florian schirmacher developed something completely out of the box together with the living techno legend mijk van dijk: the chaenge after the preliminary release of the single >love devotion< on david carrettas french label space factory now follows the debut album by the chaenge! funk is back? Ð its never been gone. this is what florian schirmacher and mijk van dijk are presenting. mijk >the legendary< van dijk has set the bar in the techno scene since the early 90s. he was one of the first european artist in japan and still follows and promotes his philosophy of thinking and acting without borders. probably only a few people know that he was a bass player in a funk band before he started his career in techno. the funk strikes back! florian >the voice< schirmacher is producer and singer of wareika, federleicht, hatikvah, here today , and of course the chaenge

in the impressive flow of new talent in 2011 on fokuz recordings we already had the pleasure to present the sound of brother, command strange and intelligent manners among others. the next flavour of the funky liquid melting pot called fokuz recordings goes by the name donnie dubson. berlin based irishman donnie o sullivan aka donnie dubson started releasing his funky rollers on have a break and influenza media and already featured on fokuz on the chronicles of the deep lp together with stunna back in 2007. the grapefruit / battlecat release on influenza media in 2009 got him a lot of attention and is still heard in dj sets today. now its 2011 and fokuz presents the beautiful debut album of donnie dubson! his sound can be described as refreshing and original liquid drum n bass with a touch of the well known atmospheric drum n bass vibes from the mid 0s. his basslines are the unique sellingpoint as well as his ability to create an organic feel in the music thats only done by the few who truly understand what liquid drum n bass is all about. pleasuring both critical listeners and the dancefloor audience this album is a perfect overview of the sound fokuz stands for. a great example of how music can be time-less in this decade of fast moving consumer goods.

hectic times require adequate measures. shorten the text message, shorten any url, filter a newsfeed to make a broadband broader - in any way, take a shortcut wherever you intend to go. while the world is struggling for convenience, those who chose the road less travelled will soon become - or already are? - outsiders. in many ways this is the case of jacek sienkiewicz - with over 30 releases behind, and over a decade of running his own label, he persistently followed his very own path, creating music that very soon began to be impossible to define. friendly, but not fraternizing with everyone and his family, modest, but stubborn only in a positive way, jacek is an individual with clear, personal vision and an unorthodox approach to music - light years away from the hectic, utilitarian ethos of club-derived electronic beats. and this story finally took shape - at the same time rock solid and otherworldly ethereal - in the form of “on the road , without any doubt one of the few rare records, this complex and challenging, to be derived in recent years from the music formerly known as techno. this album successfully attempts to embrace virtually all aspects of modern electronic music - from rave-like club bangers, through detroitish passion and deep house-like style, towards ambient soundscapes that are mariana trench deep

new york hip hop producer tony simon aka blockhead returns with his third and best instrumental album for ninja tune. blockhead has long made beautiful, emotive music based around the hip hop template, but on >the music scene< he elevates his craft to another level.

at its heart, the album celebrates the communal ideal of dance music with spirited, percussive tracks offering a clear distillation of what could only be described as the cadenza sound. but mirko also diverges from the dance floor, ducking into shadowy corners in search of more private emotions. rather than scattering energy, that tension between moods helps bind the album into a potent, coherent whole.
