recovering from the gray decay of the winter here in berlin, we are more than ready to push forward farther into the future. in order to do so the powers at chronicle have aligned a new musical offering to test the palate of those who know, and those who care. we are pleased to present six tracks from the prolific arnaud le texier, who has made waves for years with his children of tomorrow imprint and renowned taste. from cosmic interludes to heavy hitting transcendence, arnaud manages to showcase all sides of his production skills as they translate into a compelling and emotive narrative. among them stands a tribute to one who was lost along the way that we simply do not want to forget. only rarely in this life do we stand witness to gures that make a true impression, an imprint that continues to leave a mark long after the original has passed. max_m was one of these gures, and it is through his music and immensely dignified curatorial prowess that his legacy will live on. arnaud’s poignant tribute stands as a personal note amongst an ep full of forceful techno suitable for deep space exploration

die großen hits der rocksteady-Ära von duke reid sind auf diesem album zusammengefasst. auf 180g vinyl gepresst und von den original-masterbändern gemastert, ist diese rarität nach mehreren jahrzehnten nun wieder auf vinyl erhältlich. seit den 60er jahren produzierte duke reid auf jamaika ska und rocksteady. sein tonstudio war die erste anlaufstelle für diesen sound, das label trojan (auf dem diese compilation erscheint) hat sich nach dem soundsystem-truck von duke reid benannt. duke reid liebte amerikanischen jazz und blues und ließ diese leidenschaft in die produktionen einfließen. seine produktionen gelten bis heute als weit ausgefeilter als die der konkurrenz. diese kopplung enthält jede menge raritäten, aber auch welt-hits wie “the tide is high” von den paragons.

nice price deal !!! meridian is a perfect example of dj 3000s evolution as a producer. the mark of a good producer is to never stop growing, once you do, you are condemned to making the same record over and over again and hoping no one notices. this record is the perfect marriage between the percussive staples of the motech sound, and a new lighter exploration of sound elements by dj 3000. >meridian< dares you to sit still while listening to it, or to stand on the wall if you are near a dance floor. its ability to make you dance as well as captivating your ear if you are sitting and listening illustrates the dynamic flexibility of the motech sound.

six tracks make up jauzas the shining s latest vinyl offering. brutal basslines stand, arms folded, in front of snapping snares, distorted notes bucking under immense mechanic pulses. to help drop the temperatures, to push the punishment, dynarec and raw jay have been drafted in to add their own eclipsed emotions to the mix. dark skies, brimming with rain and heavy metals hover across this record, pin pricks of light piercing the charcoal heaven before diving back into the ink-stained sonic psyche of jauzas.

this soundtrack remains so powerful and evocative it could almost stand alone from the classic western it accompanied. just close your eyes and it won’t take long for you to start conjuring up images of grizzled mountain men, intrepid wayfarers, murderous outlaws, boom-town mining camps, lines of covered wagons across the skyline and the great american outdoors that just seems to go on forever.

houndstooth präsentiert das debütalbum des aufsehen erregenden jungtalents guy andrews. dieser ignoriert gängige dj-strukturen, tempi und mixdowns und erzeugt aus präziser percussion und schwankenden verzerrungen ein werk, das trotz - oder gerade wegen - des paradigmenwechsels der zeit stand hält. dabei erreicht die klangliche aggression der 12 tracks eine sensibilität und zielstrebigkeit, die dem album eine tiefe verleiht, die üblicherweise auf albumlänge schwierig durchzuhalten ist.

following the recent acclaimed release of his “space” lp, on which bruno “patchworks” hovart transformed himself into patchworks galactic project for a fantastic musical trip, favorite recordings proudly presents this new 2 tracks remix ep. on the a side, rising uk producer ny*ak provides a blowing version of “surrounded by the gobblins”. what do the letters stand for? why the asterisk?” you ask. the origin of the asterisk has something to do with donating dates of birth on family trees, from back in the medieval times. in music, an asterisk denotes when a sustain pedal should be lifted. ny – new york? ak – alaska? is it something to do with the three stooges? nyak nyak nyak… it leaves the mind thirsty for answers... in reality andrew scott, the man behind ny*ak, banged his computer keyboard in frustration one day – and out came ny*ak. if that’s taken the shine off it a little, we’re not worried. listen to any of andrews tracks and we guarantee you’ll be drawn straight back in, but this time – deeper. for the b side, underground house producer kool vibe also delivers a brilliant rendition of “gobblins are gone”. producer & owner of kv records (paris), record collector since 1993, and definitely part of the new deep house music scene that is emerging from france at the moment, laurent, aka kool vibe, was born in paris in 1970. kool vibe s music reflects the best of the 90s house music sound that he manages to love so much. in 2011 and 2012, his first releases have been cult tracks out on “my love is underground” and “traxx underground” imprints.

here we have the fourth and last reference of the “moog your body” series, in which, as always, we have 4 tracks from 4 different artists. for this release we team up with cream soda aka locked club, moscow based duo, that offers a particular vision of acid house with his track “one more night stand”, mixing low-fi jacking and hip-house in a record that will be the artists first vinyl giveaway. the next cut is 6tma’s, our franchise-man. his new mutant rave composition, “joan manuel serato”, more focused towards breaks and uk hardcore, is going to destroy the dance floor again.

the evening wind carries the sound of distant music. raindrops running down the window like glistening pearls. those small moments, unimposing yet so intense and unforgettable. its this kind of moments that makes the sound of dolph stand out. the pounding heaviness of the kickdrum and the sharp smack of the clap might be omnipresent – but its not these rhythmic elements that make the magic happen. rather, its those small moments of understatement: dubby delays, whirling through the air like leaves. long filter modulations, morphing through the soundscape like wafts of fog. colourful harmonies, popping up like sudden flowers. a 10 inch vinyl comes with the mellow stimulation named free of thoughts as well as x, a collaboration by dolph and levolt.

als gitarrenlegende michael rother bei einem konzert der secret machines unlängst plötzlich geisterhaft auf der bühne stand und mit den us-nachwuchskrauts sein deluxe rockte, knisterte der kleine hamburger club vor magie. das stück findet sich auf dem zweiten und letzten harmonia-album von 1975, welches nun zum zweiten remaster-schub historischer krautrock-alben gehört. -deluxe- ist ein repetitiv rockendes meisterwerk voll studiotechnisch veredelter saitenmalerien und wild pumpenden e-orgeln. dazu rufen rother, moebius und roedelius manchmal kraftwerk-hafte slogans, deren monotonie genauso hypnotisch wirkt wie die melodiemosaiken. hinreißend! parallel erscheinen in gleicher digipack-aufmachung klassiker von cluster (zuckerzeit, 1974) und os mundi (43 minuten, 1972) sowie titellose alben von electric sandwich (1972), novalis (1975) und kin ping meh (1975). zu den ersten käufern werden die secret machines gehören. garantiert.
