during the 1950’s american exotica exponents les baxter, martin denny and arthur lyman fused african and latin rhythms with caribbean and polynesian sounds to evoke the sonic equivalent of a tropical island paradise. this 3rd volume of britxotica examines how their english equivalents fuelled by the popularity of hit musical south pacific, attempted to create the same sun-drenched haitian ambience in rain-soaked, post-war london.

nice price deal !!! in times where objectivity of genre barriers is ceasing to exist, cueva records aims at the curatorship and exposure of their open-minded personal taste. a side of this first chapter presents two forward-thinking house tracks filled with latin american percussions. b side sets home for a long, smooth, textured remix. nothing else to say, just feel the groove...

after the previous collaborations with blawan and lucretio & marieu (aka the analogue cops), mannella is back with his first solo work -nebula viator-. there’s no definitive recipe for his individual productions, but you can usually expect varying amounts of evolving pads, nostalgic rhythm and structured drums change that give to his productions a rich hot surge. in this four track ep mannella is going back to his roots and main influences, showing us how essential is for him shaping them into his latest feeling: swaggering techno tracks powered by sleek house chords. nebula viator is a 24minutes ep crammed with slamming and chubby grooves set against a sprawling astral substrate..

1 per customer / third of a three part ep series leading up to a five 12inch vinyl box mandar album!

video for the title track “mango bay” was played for hours over stream by one of the top dota players rtz, achieving legendary meme status over night. “rush” and “rocky bay” are wrapping up the a side carrying faster tech grooves, while still maintaining the organic component (warmth) with bass, chopped vocals and woodwind leads.
b side starts off with “calypso”, one of the earliest x-coast productions - a steady house groove made from layers of keys, trumpet stabs, rich with hats and ghost snares - perfect to get the party started. being the last track, “don’t stop” is a hidden gem of this ep - what seems to be a hawaiian steel guitar classic, quickly transforms into a floor stomper, it’s a house beat reinforced by a classic rolling break, hammond stabs and samples of sterling void & paris brightledge’s “it’s all right”.

vent is revisited by an old friend, bringing visions and prophecies of times to come. arbiter’s message is bleak and machinistic, telling of a future where objects and subjects lose their boundaries and entangle. pockets of resistance will never give in to the oppressive powers that be, and will dance to the never ending percussive rhythms and melodies they worship. the revolution is not in sight for them, but never forgotten.

essential repress of terrence dixon’s debut album and first release on tresor.
initially released in 2000, this new edition comes with a bonus 7” vinyl featuring two previously uncut tracks: “ what up” and “shuffle all circuits”.
from the far future embodies a specific and vital time of detroit‘s techno production, going hand in hand with juan atkins’ work as infiniti, terrence dixon signed this album with a masterful hand.

the album was written, produced, and distributed in garys hometown baltimore, between 1986 and 1987. after a break from performing while getting belated college degrees, gary returned to performing in the early 21st century, back to the singer/songwriter style of his past. gary feels that the generic art ensemble/original soundtrack days gave him an ability to open up his writing. his recent albums feature guitar, but many songs do have keyboards added to give them a fuller, less folky sound.

fans of tramp records may remember the band the bionic i. their song disco claus was featured on the third volume of santa s funk & soul christmas party. actually, the city news are none else than the bionic i! eric dunbar, member of both outfits, got introduced to the piano at age 5. in 1969 he started playing music with the city news band, a new orleans rhythm & blues band. bustin up is the side unless you like the kung-fu craze inspired chan the man that was around in 1975.

“steven tyler” - a title derived from the combination of both artists first names . scud one (steven) and t-white (tyler) focus on the integration of beats, interludes and spoken-word comedy skits delivered with absurd - and sometimes sardonic - wit. it’s a packed album, filled with colorful sounds, spacey artwork and irreverent humor throughout. as a collaborative effort, it showcases the strengths of both its producers, and makes for a unique blend.
pressing on transparent, green coloured vinyl.

!! ltd nice price action / ltd re-issue !! nicolas jaar has graduatedÐ space is only noise is a tour de force with few modern equals, and a great sign of things to come from one of electronic musics most exciting producers.

opening things up, the sinister title track is a dense, winding affair built around staggered tribal patters and powered along with a brooding reese bassline. he/at’s “set openers” have become something he is known for and this is definitely one of his most dramatic. after that madness, “it’s impossible to describe the smell of a wet dog” strips things right down with subtly chaotic-timed rhythms and synth-work. kind of minimal...but not.
on the flip side, “a drama out of a crisis” is a straight-up new-meets-old techno stomper with early beltram-esq beats and modulated melodies, before the ep closes out with the rawness, “the man who made husbands jealous” is a tough acidic kind of work out with an infectious hook we think you’re going to like.

die renommierte us-truppe feiert 20-jähriges jubiläum und veröffentlicht ihr neues album. die achtköpige band, benannt nach dem us-amerikanischen abolitionist (der unerbittlich die sklaverei bekämpfte und dafür 1859 hingerichtet wurde) präsentiert mit “fireflies” ihr elftes und bestes album ihrer karriere. die vinyl-lp erscheint mit mp3 download-coupon.

taciturn manner is reggy van oers’s first full length on his own telemorph imprint.
pertained in a period of strained self reflection, several field recordings have become the core upon which the album has been created. a persistant continuous movement throughout the elements of the tracks causes a certain constrasting tension and gradually transforms into lush cinematic textures.
an intricate and mesmerizing journey, full of rich and surprising details, resulting in a rather emotional expression of his constraint style and coherent distinct sound.

this mini-album marks a shift in emphasis for lustwerk music, with boss galcher lustwerk choosing to showcase the work of another producer for the first time. he s apparently been nurturing florida-based quavius for some time, encouraging the young producer to -experiment more- while following his instincts. it seems to have worked, because the majority of music on this debut release is top notch. it covers a lot of ground, with the a-side alone moving between r&b-inspired hip-house (-love the way-), hip-hop (-magic man-), woozy electronica (-r n v-) and spacey deep house (-composure-). there s naturally plenty more to enjoy on the flipside, too, from the old school deep hip-hop bump of -m 320-, to the crunk-tinged, cut-up goodness of closer -can i be-.

having previously worked with zero 7 and nightmares on wax before embarking on a solo career a few years back, mozez (aka soul singer/songwriter osmond wright) is no newcomer. the ray mang-produced run river first appeared on last year s wings full-length, and here makes it to wax for the first time. sitting somewhere between early freeez and odyssey, mang s extended vocal version is something of a soulful, soft-spun disco-funk treat. as we ve come to expect from mang, its musically rich and impeccably played, with the live instrumentation providing a deliciously organic feel. this can be heard more clearly on the excellent flipside instrumental.

konzept des werkes ist es klassische erasure-songs neu als country- oder akustik-versionen einzuspielen, diese lieder damit komplett aus ihrem elektro-pop-korsett zu lösen. damit werden die songs auf ihre essenz reduziert, das songwriting rückt in das zentrum der wahrnehmung. erasure-juwelen wie boy und piano song in versionen mit akustik- oder steel-pedal-gitarre zu hören, ist jedenfalls ein großes vergnügen.
