nofitstate return with four tracks from hot talent a1 bassline whose reputation has been building of late from a succession of releases for the likes of dirtybird, get physical and gruuv amongst others. here hidden agenda finds the young producer in true devastating form. skippy percussion, a nod to the uks garage scene, vibes the track along nicely whilst the bass does the damage. burnt out piano island delves deeper, acting as a neat counterpoint to the more main room agenda. here the style is much more nuanced with a more hypnotic leaning. outsider picks up the pace against, albeit in a subtle, uplifting vibe with warped pianos and razor sharp percussion. t moe p rounds things off nicely with a moody bassline driven groove.

mallorcas dakpa has been on a roll since amam released his debut ep last fall. he has contributed to several compilations, including amams own hand out series, kina music s fade to k pt. 3 and wizz vinyl s sonar sampler 2014, plus eps for labels like district raw and serial number 849. but amam gets the honor of issuing his first own vinyl release, the distres ep. the opening title track is an exercise in jacking minimalism, vibrant tech house with just the essentials, but more than enough to get the floor moving. then, ademus gets into a slightly more colorful groove, with tropical percussive interplay and some whooping voice for a humanistic accent (is that brigitte bardot?). on the flip, virgo gives a modern update to the frenzy of acid house. the title alone brings virgo four to mind. on that note, this one is an effective tool for warping minds and evoking spastic dance moves. finally, the dependable gaetano vinci a.k.a. hooved reinterprets ademus with a heavy dose of melodic funk and symphonic washes, making the track into an entirely new creation.

deep, dark and instinctive techno/ rhythmic/ industrial/ drone music from manchester uk, are the words that can be found to describe the music of casual violence.. its safe to say that they picture the painting discovered in this new ep. expression unrelated is made up of four tracks as good as they are varied.. on the a side theres burn it all down , pure quality techno 4/4, dark and fleshy, the perfect bullet to hypnotise the dance floor in a few seconds.. youth horde, an interlude/break, deep aquifer on a down tempo beat, which rails in this a side beautifully. on the b side, the track who gave his name to the ep, expression unrelated is a track as dark as it is rhythmic. a broken devasted beat, over 9 minutes of insanity.. sensitive souls beware. we finish off with an outro/intro, where long and hypnotic strings interlace.. as already stated, pure drone music from manchester.

after a short hiatus, blawan & pariah return with their influential works the long nights imprint. teaming up together once again as karenn, here they display three tracks of all-hardware muscular techno experiments. highly essential, therein keeping with traditions of the label and artist s previous output, of course.

the culmination of four years writing and editing, anjou marks the first collaboration between labradfords robert donne and mark nelson since the release of that groups *fixed:context* lp. combining modular synthesis, max/msp programming and live instrumentation, anjou deftly weaves noise with gentle ambience and melody with texture. guitar, bass and steven hess (locrian, fennesz, pan american) live percussion give the eight pieces an immediacy and create a framework for the more abstract sounds of digital and analog synth programming. the product of twenty plus years of friendship, anjou is refined and challenging. an extension of the labradford sound-world but no mere victory lap, anjou represents donne and nelson stepping out and forward, their eyes firmly focusing on the future.

lets introduce the new label: lehult. this time with four groovin deephouse nuggets

the return on bosconi of the wonderkids from firenze sud, herva and dukwa (aka marco d aquino) as life s track, consists in a explosive blend of pure freestyle ghetto goodness!! four burning tracks dense of special effects, sound manipulations through tape distortions and pyrotechnic structures: a side starts with the funky builder it fell down, a full on, rough and raw ultra filtered disco house dancefloor anthem in the vein of a more warped and f**ked up bangalter or shake shakir, while on the second cut there s the aggressive and drunk ghetto blaster of come on, on b side instead you ll find the breathtaking groove from the driving acid techno bossa of -rescue me- and the electro breaks from lost cassettes of the melancholic and dreamy closing ep lullaby -sometimes theycome back-..

operating from the heart of brooklyn, ny, the latest artist to sign up to ornate is jordan, whose plush deep house sound has already surfaced via a collaboration with fred p on the deep explorer compilation far & beyond. living on the border of the bushwick and ridgewood neighbourhoods, the title of the ep is a nod to the difference jordan sees between his own spiritual, detailed work and the trend for rougher analogue sounds that have been sweeping the city he calls home. with a focus on expressive, richly melodic synths and delicately balanced rhythms, his music stands apart from the wave of guttural lo-fi sonics, and yet this is still house music with that east coast punch where it counts. with an imminent release for the noted finale sounds imprint establishing jordan well within the remit of high-end house and techno, it gives us great pleasure to present these exercises in soulful immersion, from the three 4/4 driven pieces to the ambient vignette -visage-. with the door open for more experimental interpretations, it made perfect sense to invite former ornate guest leif back to turn out a remix of the track, his own hushed tones having recently graced a critically-acclaimed debut album for fear of flying. it s the ideal complement to an ep of highly developed musicianship that spells another exciting step forward for both jordan and ornate.

what happens if such restless souls like akiko kiyama and laurine frost start to melt their sounds together? the result is that one of the most interesting piece of art of the forward-thinking techno music becomes alive. ’through the mountains ep’ is a golden section of their utopistic musical imaginations, influenced by classical minimalism, live instruments and the ordered chaos of contemporary techno and found sound elements. all the four tracks contain their recognisable fingerprints. the gently and respectful collaboration is proven by the perfect balance of chemistry. in the collage of their musical layers every tiny sound and every tiny breaks have its own weight and meaning. waving and playful structures, exciting journeys on the edge of reality.

tasteful nudes welcomes prolific french producer anaxander to the fold for our sixth release, an orderly life. past records for boe recordings, local talk, dame-music, quintessentials, and love what you feel have primed astute record buyers for these four cuts: at turns dark and thumping, melodic and melancholic, and hypnotically whirling, each track finds anaxander expanding on american dance music influences to create something wholly his own. the record artwork features an original photo by los angeles photographer armando christian armenta.

walking through the sky, five years ago christian naujoks, peter m. kersten and richard von der schulenburg started a series of spontaneous recording sessions without any intention or idea. the only thing what held the group together were the immediate results hitting the three musicians straight inside their hearts. jazz as a metaphor of instrumental conversation, improvisation in the most dillettant way, science as a matter of exploring the opposite sound of what instruments were built to, these might be parts of a concept where there was none.

as one of the more distinctive minimal house operators in these times, ion ludwig makes for a snug fit over at trelik towers, and with this three tracker its not hard to see why his records vanish quicker than you can say baby ford. 46 lj + felix ballad is a refined groover with a fine balance between gritty low end chunk and gossamer top-end, working subtle hits of bass and illustrious string sweeps into the mix to great effect. em carpet meanwhile darts out into more obscure territory, keeping the beats to a minimum and focusing on warm and fuzzy synth tones cycling
