these scottish ladmen are some of the most promising producers working today, combining brutish, visceral force with real intelligence and control. they use no gear whatsoever, crafting their bombs from malware in public chatrooms, giving voice to a generation living in the digital ether between the moon and glaswegia city.

ramona welcomes hungarian homeboy san laurentino (electric minds, mathematics recordings) for his first outing on live at robert johnson. a self-taught producer and isolated from the hubs of electronic body music in europe and overseas, laurentinos music bears all the qualities that such a recluse has to offer: deviating, different, definite and demonstrative music. four cuts of neo-star trance, ambient wave, erotic illusions and borderline rain-forest house. ramona fell in love with them. forbidden fruits taste best.

joey negro is the most well-known pseudonym of master british dj/producer/remixer dave lee. under a plethora of other monikers including jakatta, akabu, doug willis, raven maize, the sunburst band, sessomatto, and z factor, dave was one of the first artists to incorporate disco samples in house music when he began his production career in 1988. indeed, he was in the studio making credible and outstanding british house music when many luminaries around him were still busy getting to grips with their decks. in 2011 little has changed and dave is widely regarded as one of the most commercially successful and in-demand artists on the global scene

the latest release on metroline takes no prisoners. clio brings it big. every track on this ep is loaded, primed and ready to fire. lead track poem does big the george clinton way. basslines cranked to funk, tempo raised, and drum tracks set to attack. sinister and sparse percussion gives do it an entirely different feel. but under the tune’s brooding atmospherics is an equally powerful rhythm. fired by a growling sub-bass that whoomps out of the speaker like a sonic weapon. killer. speaker-busting bass and pumping kicks are the order of the day on the flip. carlo lio’s remix of do it thunders along. built for dancefloor shock and awe, this track’s built like a tank - unstoppable and ready for combat. the massively in-demand sasch bbc and casper go intergalactic on their rework of poem. this is the tune that plays in hal 9000s head. epic, deep and serious, with a healthy dose of paranoia. careful this one doesnt tear a hole in your space station.

>xenomorph / vespertilio< follows up peter kruders >law of return< track, that was a highlight, both in the music world in 2009 and in macros ever brilliant catalogue - and one of the now most sought after recent vinyl collectors records. xenomorph takes off where law of return ended. 2012 couldnt start deeper: detail rich, dreamy, pushing enthusiastically forward into the new year. vespertilio then moves between the off-centre sound aesthetics of a morricone soundtrack and the intensity of hypermodern subbass droppings. this is an irresistably deep double package, exceeding even the boldest expectations. a masterpiece. no more, no less.

roberto clementi hails from a small town on italys east coast somewhere between riccione and rome. he is much more of an inventive sound designer as opposed to an average music producer. his tunes range from deep and lush to uplifting and party-pumping - often fueled by minimal subby basslines, retro-ish melodic elements, elegantly cut-up vocals, and an overall warm, analog feel. he currently has releases and remixes on labels like unfoundsound, monique musique, distric raw, undercut, stolen moments, manual music, kompass musik, suara, greel pound, sk supreme, and others. he is also one-half of i-rob alongside roby dj, and they have releases on labels like autist, tenax recordings, clasque musique, and others. his debut ep for steadfast features 3 techno trax ranging in mood and atmosphere but all sharing a perfect dancefloor sensibility and top-notch production. brendon moellers reshape aint half bad either.

following up the well received >relapse ep< on machining dreams, dj/producer steven tang presents >mmmmmusic< under his obsolete music technology moniker. the 4-track, 12 inch vinyl single focuses in on melody, which has become the signature sound and of his label, emphasis. upon first listen of the main title track, you will hear a driving tr-808 drum intro, then lush, emotive pads and strings comes in over the top to give the listener that emotional hook. setting off the track is the funky synth bass voice sounding , >mmmmmusic!< backing the title track is the stripped down >reprise version< and >chicago skyways pay toll mix<, where the synth bass voice is extracted and cut up into skyways frenetic drum programming style reminiscent of steve poindexters >work that motherfucker<. also includes the track, >distance.<

seven tracks on the new lowriders release and its a real joy to listen to! the ep opens with the cheerful title track with the likes of kissey on vocals and it is amazingly sticky and feels like a compendium of 30 years of electronic music, with seemingly effortless transitions between detroit house, booty bass and future music.baby treats you on a twostep/house bumper which will kill you. bek is like your 808 swingbeat ghetto track: redundancy to the bone covered with bubbles and some essential vocoder science. sduk makes baby into a dancefloor stomper, whereas starkeys interpretation of field (which appeared on our beatitude compiler) adds and enhances drama and suspense from the original.and then there is the magical krampfhaft remix of tic tac toe, a worthy last track, schizofrenic, driven and recognizable as a mutated juke screamer.
pressing on orange marbled vinyl.

hotflush presents the return of sigha with a new ep entitled >abstractions i-iv<, his sixth on the label. on this release he reaches into darker territory, beginning with a beatless, ambient suspension, drawing the listener in his submerged sonic sphere before dropping into a series of chilling compositions that seem to seethe and smolder at sub-zero temperatures, adorned with haunting electronic blips and synthetic machinations throughout. having already gathered support from many figures in the electronic world over the last year including marcel dettmann, brendon moeller and francois k, as well as making appearances on scubas recent dj-kicks mix compilation with >where i come to forget< amongst others, james shaw continues to make his mark with >abstractions<.

for his debut on circus recordings maher teams up with fellow montreal man michael gracioppo aka casa. with a successful 8bit ep under his belt, plus a remix of homeworks >i m into this<, the canadian is a talent to keep an eye on. >malgra< sees the pair plunging deep under the jungle canopy. xylophone melody, drum rolls and dramatic breaks help create a unique atmosphere.
a bumper remix package is lead by kaiserdisco who bring their trademark funk with a weighty, warped baseline and euphoric break.
new zealands emerson todd follows us recent smash on saved with a smooth house workout. from the sleekness of that mix to the downright trip-tastic rework from new boys, acid mondays. these cats have been playing with those tree frogs again!

to celebrate his mos deep sub label reaching its tenth release, boss man aroy dee has teamed up in the studio with ma spaventi for the labels next release, namely a split 10 inch featuring two tracks: >wrecking< and >mr. floyd<. first up is amsterdams best kept production secret aka marco the doctor spaventi. his >wrecking< is a blisteringly raw house construction with ripping synth lines, delicate hi-hats and slow, crawling kick drums building up to an incendiary, chicago referencing peak where pinging cow bells shooting in all directions. its a bold track designed for maximum dance-floor damage. on the flip, aroy builds in layers. his >mr floyd< is all muted synth growls, clattering percussion and blissful pads. its a tortured deep house track that challenges you before really soothing you, but once the inner beauty is revealed, it really has you under an enchanting spell. another quality release from mos deep, this time on highly collectible 10 inch vinyl.

after some time spent entertaining from distant lands, the circus company brings it all back home with a release purposefully written to pay tribute to the breeding ground for their unique strain of house music, paris. seuil stands proud as one of her most cherished creations, a man ever evolving as an artist from the structure and function of minimalist dancefloor music through to the esoteric expression and ambience of jazz, channelling that same swinging spirit that has characterised much of the work on circus company. the release of his -chamaeleonidae- album proved to the world that there was a strange musical spirit in seuil that manifested itself in live drums and languid keys, character traits you could associate with his fellow parisians dop. the collaborations between them have been many in recent years, and once again they come together to both complement and test each others styles in a surprising vision of what pop music could sound like if crafted with soul and imagination. the beats stay tight and steady throughout the three tracks that make up -fluctuat nec mergitur-, driving a foggy brew of strings, synths and drones into a commanding groove. meanwhile the composition gently rises and falls on waves of melody, as particular harmonies swell in to carry you away to a very blue kind of euphoria. such drama and passion captures the essence of both seuil and his beloved city in one heady brew of dancefloor excellence.

next up on nang we-re honoured to introduce -2am- the new ep by sheffield scenester producers hiem along with another of the cities finest fellows- phil oakey of the human league. the original track is a synth pop powerhouse about those twilight club nights that you never wanted to end- complete with a epic guitar solo- computer blips and glistening synth rushes. oakey is as accomplished as ever- bringing his signature tones to full effect and it-s nothing short of sensational. to accompany- we-ve enlisted the skills of four producers to give us some cracking remixes. fernando and toomy disco are first up- and they ramp up the tempo and vibe for a loose -n- live rework that-s perfect for the dance floor. hiem themselves give it a go with his -1984 rework- bringing 80-s power drums- van halen solos and some atmospheric subtleties to the table. nang-s italian uber-cool-cat brioski steps up next giving us the italian angle with a brilliant walking bassline and luscious wide mix. the heels of love bring us frivolous percussion and stomping disco beats layered between emosh pads and slick keys. ace. to finish- our good friends free school take things down a notch for a beautiful leftfield excursion that only they could pull off.

following a pair of fine releases on fine art and under the shade, james johnston delivers another superb ep for no matter what. >after everything< is a masterfully created slice of rolling deep house flirting with disco styles, punctuated with snippets of disco guitar licks and dubbed out vocal samples, all held together with a sumptuous chord sequence. the comparatively upbeat tempo rhythm and deep subs of >lost the house keys< which follows comes as something of a surprise, and the chopped up piano which causes the track to erupt into a flurry of jacking rhythms only add to the proto-chi house mood. the rest of the tracks continue with the same kind of upbeat pace, with >get back to the feeling< interlacing a variety of female vocal samples within its 909 rhythms, and >xtc< injecting some serotonin into the ep with its razor sharp synth stabs and snares, whose rhythms recall the deadly precision of marc kinchens early productions...

when no one is watching ramona, is usually listening to future times records and beautiful swimmers all days. maxmillion dunbar is not only half of those aquanauts, but also running the label and releasing music as max(million) d(unbar). what a guy! hanging out in the vague territory between slow-motion house with a hip hop feeling or dubby and dubious fun music, his melodious approach is extremely hard to categorize but all the more enjoyable. >polo< already saw the light of day on >max trax for world peace<, but ramonas favorite dj ata and live at robert johnson manager oliver hafenbauer were so much in love with the bleepy bonbon that they offered it a place by their fireside. now cautiously modified, fine-tuned and extended for its label home, its a rainforest serenade for beatnik boys and girls, with all the ingredients you want from tha d. the only kid able to thrown down the gauntlet in front of maxi is frankfurts melody man phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus, etcetera etcetera). turning >polo< into one of his trademark sluggish bass line barrage tracks with falsetto synths and sharp snares. get your vogue brogue out.

with two massive reissues from suns of arqa and jaki whitren under their belts, the fledging label emotional rescue have come up with the goods once again, with this remastered reissue of incredibly rare 70s psyche-funk from bob chance. two versions are included: the original 7 inch version, driven along by a razor-sharp guitar riff and sweetly lamenting lyrics, topped off with weird cosmic synths and galloping rhythm. however, the real gem is the edit entitled >wild its broken< which sharpens the focus of the guitar and adds some serious kick to the drums to create a beefy counterpart to the new age original.

after constributing to last years superlongevity five compilation, we were more than happy to receive those tracks from mister tanaka, who currently resides in between tokyo and berlin.

we are proud to release the first ep from the new fluxion album on echocord. this work is about his travels in music. the sounds, influences and aesthetic of his actual travels, expectation-journey-destination, alongside the music influences deriving from them. through his prism those sounds, pictures, travels, emotions left traces of new directions, of future journeys to take. fluxion captured the motion in his travels with a different feeling each time. on no man is an island with the unreleased dennis brown vocal version ,an influential song, with a clear message. desert nights a kind of desert rock meeting dub on a road movie. butiama an actual place, where variations and consistency in rhythm is within people s dna. this ep also includes a flowing rmx by our good friend thomas fehlmann. after a decade in the field of dub, techno, ambient, fluxion opens the horizon with music that cannot fall under one specific territory.

the see it through ep is the debut release from kris le vay. the eponymous a side is the most dance floor orientated track, with kicking drums and a driving, melodic bass line guaranteed to get the crowd moving. its also an awesome headphone experience, with involved, complex percussive elements that keep the ear interested and euphoric breakdowns that truly pull at the heartstrings. the b1, entitled melt, is a cheeky little number that bounces around with plenty of polyrhythm. the counterpoint between the deep bass and twinkling top melody leads to the unconventional, yet mesmerising breakdown. the release is rounded off by one hot ride, which is one hot track! starting with ominous dark synths that spin themselves into a stomping hip-hop tempo beat, this anthemic rich blend of sound winds itself up from a menacing introduction on an exhilarating journey through a complex and intricate soundscape. limited to 300 colour vinyl.
