slang bang is benno blome, the head of sender, and pan/tone aka sid le rock. the duo delivers powerful tracks combining force and restraint with a wicked imagination. >amaaazing< for example sets the records tone with an aura of mystery, creeping like a secret agent on muted, methodical beats, as buzzing synths and foggy atmospheres round out the film noir effect

played by 2000 and one, giles smith, nick curly, tobi neumann.... solomun is the owner of diynamic records in hamburg, top notch producer and a splendid dj as well, so a team up with jackmate came only natural. the first two pieces they deliver here, show their love for lush detroit-ish soundscapes, combined with demanding drums and repetitive chord progressions parexcellance! carnivale is like a growing storm on a hot summer day, building its tense with beautiful string arrangements and coming to a climax in rolling thunders of pure bliss! factory is a special little gem of its own, that could run for days, so subtle and charming is the flow of this early morning grower. highly recommended stuff

la danse de l hibouthe fourth release with bucketround follows the path left by his past references, not disregarding the exploration of new horizons. oval future face (bucketround recs) grants us his peculiar way of understanding electronic music. avoiding the hype or settled guidelines la danse de l hibou brings us right in the middle of the night where nocturnal birds of prey hunt. we are in front of his deepest work so far, full of details and rhythmical shifts shrouded in minimal sound with its own soul... as if it was meant to be just for this work, it is apt for lounge listening, dancefloors or even forests. the re mixes collection does not fall short on quality: pablo bolivar (regular) as usual everything he touches turns into gold and this time pablo does not disappoint. nimble groove full of hectic changes and sudden pauses enriches this melodic remake. a real dancefloor hit. angel galan (add sensor) theres no rule for crafting remixes and angel is the clearest example. an amazing explosion of multicolor strokes transformed into tangled logic sound.

munich man dario zenker is back again for his second vakant ep following 2008s >sam und er/womde!< (va019). still fresh faced and just as hungry, dario continues to bring the bavarian goods to our freaky masses. a side -would be nice- makes more twists and turns than a sausage factory while consistently pumping out the mystery meat thick and juicy. if you want freak, thump, space, expanse, its all here. b1 -blue champa- is perhaps more on the vegetarian tip: light, nutritious, guilt free and always leaving you a little hungry. fun and bouncy, -blue champa- easily proves that you dont need to eat meat to get phat. at b2 position you will find -while rain gets air-. we have no idea what dario means here but if you were asking yourself >wheres that track on this vakant record that wont let close my eyes at night cause i heard this track at 7am and im still a little freaked out,< this is it. listeners beware

donnacha costello returns with another release for his new label and platform, look long. the tragedy of the commons sees him continuing his mission to create work of lasting quality and beauty. gatsby has that most rare and ephemeral quality, that certain something not easily defined. work which is at once both raw and full of subtlety. something which is at once both instantly familiar and yet inescapably new. fathoms deep pulls the listener in with each rotation until we are so thoroughly hypnotised we cannot but surrender to its insistent, organic pulse. baritoneÆs melancholy lo-fi guitars and roland 606 drums wrap around us like a warm blanket on a cold night. a private oasis, a moment of comfort in a lonely city before the body gives in to sleep. this is no throwaway music. this is music to keep, to live with, to grow with. this is music in which comfort can be sought and solace found

after his 2nd album, remixes for modeselektor, cassius and zombie nation, housemeister is back on bnr with his new ep >beef jerky<. 100% analog produced techno and breakcore - and as usual outside of any trend. >who is that boys<, a pure housemeister style banger with a crazy beat programming, is garantied to rock the club. >beef jerkey< is a dirty breakbeat-core trak and like pedro winter said if it was labelled as chemical brothers people would take it as great track back to the roots. >rambo< is a tropical beat mix of baltimore, dubstep and techno, >vakuum< gives you the deeper rephlex techno vibe and last but not least there is >gehacktes<, a cool beat tool for the anti rave night. this record proves that the magic and excitement of electronic music is based on the good old fashioned analog production. word
