the guys from audision are back with their next release in coloured vinyl! they produced chimes 1 for their live-set and it was much appreciated by the crowd. their new syntie roland jd 800 sounded crystal clear in their studio, but when they practiced for their live set in frankurt last year, all of a sudden it played a different sound … this was a magic moment which had to be recorded at once. the typcial audision device is: let the machines do the talking. and that is the also the story of chimes 2 *away* was the beatless track from their last years release up & away. so no one else but gez varley aka g-man created a dancefloor monster out of it. where can we start, when we talk about such a genius like gez varley. he was co-founder of the legendary lfo (warp records) duo. he wrote music history with his partner mark bell. under his solo project g-man, he released on labels like wir, i220, force inc or swim. *quo vadis* is still one of the most important all-time favourite techno tracks. last but not least a typical rough and deep house mix came out of christopher raus machines. the smallville member released on labels like, pampa, derive, aim, mule… and delivered a great track for this wonderful release. all in all - a must have!

blue / grey marbled vinyl pressing.

another storming, ranging ep from the new yorkers: heavy-duty machine funk for the dancefloor, charged and swinging with old-school chicago vibes. the a-side house bobs from tearaway to discofied to rawly jaunty, the techno on the flip from dug-in and twisted to a more wide-open excursiveness. to start, the soulful rug-cutter down runs a sublimated tribalism beneath lovely, dubwise kick drums and sultry female vocal, heavy skies is lo-fi funk, a stand-out, the bass and brilliant percussion-work of the title track crosses us garage with new uk styles (a little joy o to its bottom end). discreet time meshes vintage chicago drum programming with the filtered house of someone like i:cube, and to close, plateau, a widescreen, experimental bubblers, with reaching fxd synths and shuffling snares and hi-hats... perhaps their best yet.

hot on the heels of ornate musics last release featuring the bumping house business of digs, the imprint set their sights on welsh producer leif, who has been turning heads with his masterful deep house for labels like fear of flying and fina since 2003. kicking off with *circumstance 4*, whose smooth organ refrain drifts over a lightly rolling groove, the vibe switches up with *every cloud*, whose gentle jazz-inspired piano and abstract, dubbed out soundscape is strongly reminiscent of floating points more freeform productions. however, it is *each day made new* that provides the eps most surprising moment, an andres style hip-hop track with a cut-up, sunshine drenched quality calling recloose to mind.

the black madonna returns to home taping with another classic release in the making! we still believe captures that early sound of chicago when you could still hear the euro and italo influences as they were re-interpreted through the beat boxes & synthesisers of the windy city, and made to jack. on the flip, home taping favourite the revenge delivers his own take on that classic sound with an understated and yet pumping rework. packed full of authentic beatbox sounds and warehouse style keys, it works it to the boom boom. last but not least, the black madonna finishes off the package with say my name - a dirty, menacing and incessant groove that makes out like a wild new street dance that just got turned loose. the black madonna is here to stay!

kicking off a big year for apple pips with something tasty and different from komon & appleblim! having worked together on remixes for respected labels like ninja tune & aus, appleblim & komonazmuk (now going under the name komon for his house/bass productions) started jamming in the studio on some original material. messing with boundaries and having fun was the order of the day, and what we have here are two of the first results… ’gas jam’ is a bassline-led roller with a nod to both classic uk garage & the futuristic house & techno vibes of uk bass music. getting dropped on rinse fm on both the marcus nasty & hypercolour shows, & with eats everything & carl craig supporting it already you can hear why it appeals to open minded and diverse djs.. ’silencio’ shimmers and shines on a glooped-out balearic/kosmiche beat, an 80s soul soundsystem bassline funks on through and leads you into a woozy blissed out climax…slo-mo house/bass balearic bizniss… with more collabs with appleblim to follow this year, his new productions getting props from all angles, & releases lined up on hypercolour, komon’s year is shaping up nicely!

our first offering from survival and silent witness sets off the tone of what to expect from the full *in from the wild* package itself and album which seems to morph and twist from all out dance floor brutality to musical genius and back like these 2 artists seem to do so often and so effortlessly. *the feeding* is a powerful space age drum-shuffled crowd killer whilst *lights* presents a more musical journey from start to finish, in our eyes it is a very complete 12 inch pick from a very well pieced album. trust us, this talented duo are taking no prisoners in 2013.
support for the album so far from: friction (on bbc radio 1), laurent garnier (on his pbb worldwide radio show), london elektricity (on his hospital records xmas podcast). select tracks have also received wide support and praise from the likes of calyx & teebee, break, ant tc1, nymfo (as featured on his fabric mix), xtrah, youngsta, octane, dlr, skeptical, artificial intelligence, dbr uk, basher, mindscape, lynx, cern, hybris, ruckspin, june miller and gerra & stone.

we never forget our roots here at idle hands. for people of a certain age the wild experiments of jungle and dnb remain close to our hearts. whilst scenes, sounds and trends may wax and wane that visceral feeling of chest rattling bass is something we hold on to. rhythmic theory is one producer who like us, never forgot. here we present two tunes deeply indebted to those times. it must be stated though, you will not find any amen breaks or ragga samples here, instead, this up and coming bristol producer transposes the atmospheres and deadly subs to a techno template. *legacy of the lost* and *riveted* follow on from two well received vinyl only release on brstl and his own self titled label. both tracks are immaculately crafted hardware jams that are designed solely with sound system use in mind.

two great friends, and exciting young talents, reunite for their second outing on real tone. the transatlantic partnership between leeds-born burnski and new yorks m a n i k has already produced one special creation – the dancefloor smash *you know what its like*. full of funk and relentless energy, the track was a great fusion of the contemporary styles of two well-respected producers.

the detroit threads record store has survived in one incarnation or another for more than16 years. in this time personal relationships have formed with music makers of every circle over the common bond of vinyl sound. it was a logical step to give back to this community a product that reflects the many faces that make up the store. a store that has been and will continue to be a hub for the exchange of ideas, kept alive by like minded people who still believe in the independent detroit spirit. this spirit shines upon the unique artists that move to their own beat, and never compromise their vision. detroit threads gives a voice to these artists that should be heard. nospectical is walter wasack, jennifer paull, and chistopher mcnamara. they are a team of detroit sound artists that lean into e.d.m. on the minimal tip. their comfort zone is inside of a sounds cape near the sphere of unconsciousness. nospectical is a cool dark breeze that is alive with a pulse. they tread into strangeness and let it come together to form a neurotic world. nospectical works to broaden the view and redefine the depth of detroit techno. detroit threads is proud to support this cause.

take a long and wistful stare out of routines window. beyond the urban sprawl and endless nine-to-five tape loop, pass the minds monotonous prattling and humdrum hum of breadwinning, losing and general existing, somewhere out there burns a summer eternal, with all its romances still in tact. a place full of sweaty nights and protracted lazy days where the breeze teases with salty lips, and the sun leaves its freckled kiss on basking knees and cheeks. this is where everything happened just so, where bittersweet memories were made and mistakes first revealed their lessons. here is where you can think, reflect or simply escape. here is your exit.

activia benz are back in full swing for 2013 with their next release: recolor ep from 813. 813 is 25 year old russian badass, alexander goryachev. he is a firefighter, which is badass. his music is a dense collision of crazy rap beats, sort of, and some kind of fantastic rave thing, maybe. his music is very badass, much like the fact he is a firefighter. it is also very beautiful, like when he carries a small cat to safety from a burning russian building. recolor is a slice of really fantastic dancey bassy music for partying and hanging out to with your m8s.

the second release from the danish label includes four slamming tracks from londons boxwork.

streaking through the ether at twice the speed of sound, mr 8040 is on a date with destiny. he is heading for mikrosector-50, his home planet, but things are not going as smoothly as planned. en route he finds himself in sticky situations, cosmic encounters that trigger flashbacks to a different time and place. will he ever make it home? and who – or what – is he running from?
this, more or less, is the narrative thrust of jack hamills debut album as space dimension controller. welcome to mickrosektor-50 is a swashbuckling sci-fi odyssey that unfolds like some long-lost star wars episode scripted by philip k dick and scored by tangerine dream. the record is fantasy in its purest form: a futuristic boys own adventure concocted in a belfast bedroom, it is the sum of jacks musical influences distilled into 68 minutes of unalloyed electronic pleasure.

transparent vinyl. part 2 of 2.this latest ep on enemy maybe the most psychedelic and hypnotic release the label has released thus far. psychedelic hypnotism may sound like a bad acid rant from the >summer of love,< but this 2 part vinyl ep will prove you otherwise. the first vinyl focuses on the more abstract side of the dance floor, leading off with rrose and donato. perfect for the beginning of the evening or the early morning. the second vinyl is the more club-oriented accompaniment courtesy of jesper dahlback and grindvik & zahn.

after two in as many years, low-key german producer yor returns to similarly low key dutch imprint purple maze for his third full outing on the label in the form of the sublimation ep. across the four tracks yor continues to explore the same frayed and decayed, abstract electronics as he has in the past, with distant kins like kassem mosse and morphosis still resonating.

denmarks deso records with another quality 4 tracker featuring names like alex agore & label owner deso himself.

the weird house music composers from brazil strike again with four slices of spaced-out dance floor sounds. psychedelic is just one of the adjectives that come to mind when hearing brazilian duo colors sound system. on their first single for lovemonk, sao paolo brothers jota wagner and wander a, who call themselves weird house music composers, continue on the path to a higher state of consciousness with four slices of mind-altering disco and house splashed with spacemen 3-like vocals and seventies prog guitars and organs. just listen to the almost eleven minutes of *ar* if you dont believe. or *1974*. or *poeira lunar*, for that matter. the beatless title track is the only one staying under the seven-minute limit, and it is also the last track on the ep, like a much-needed comedown. space is the place, as the great sun ra said.

now, the zenker brothers are back with their first release for tresor, brandishing a matured sound and level of sensitivity yet displayed by either before. *lion in mars* is like a fresh breeze billowing through the tresor vaults. honing in on signatures from the archive and repackaging them in modern sentiment, here zenker brothers deliver a record that gleans through the generations to deliver a cunning symbiosis of techno future, past and present. on the a-side *knighthof* and *the future is you* offer driving vintage basement techno with a zenker twist, whilst b-side tracks *davin* and *cosmilian*, the eps clattering dystopic closer, blend detroit tones together with their respective ilian-proven pallets.
