the records fundament are slow, powerful beats which hold everything together springintgut has been responsible for the studio production at most times while f.s. blumm, experienced for years in making radio plays, has handled the mixing and collaging of the parts. the bird and white noise invites to join the travels, and in its long arches and bridges it can easily be listened to as a whole. while the opener or eskimono feature the rather lyrical side of the duo, tracks like land ab neu or chitin set more punchy priorities to a heavy bass and 808 drums. chitin is a late climax of the album, building up for minutes to a massive groove in an insect-like, abstract sound world, leaving just enough space for romantic cello lines to break through in the middle. the record has been released exclusively in japan for the duos tour in april 2014 via pingipungs partner label nightcruising in kyoto. pingipung now releases the lp version and the cd worldwide

prekaere bonvivants, begnadete musiker, radikale typen, von spar sind vieles, vor allem aber eine der erstaunlichsten bands aus jenen gefilden, deren spannendere musik von den briten krautrock getauft wurde. sebastian blume, jan philipp janzen, christopher marquez und phillip tielsch wurden in der vergangenheit šfter als wiedergŠnger des genres gefeiert (u.a. lieferten sie 2012 gemeinsam mit stephen malkmus vor den augen der geruehrten can-gruendungsmitglieder irmin schmidt und jaki liebezeit eine neuinterpretation des albums ege bamyasi auf dem kšlner weekend festival), auch wenn sich die vier gleicherma§en von techno, synthpop, noise, postpunk und neuer musik inspirieren lie§en.

emotional rescue is proud to present the first ever collection of works from spanish song writer javier bergia. as a member of finas africae his name is finally coming to prominence. now with this selection of his music from 1985 to today, the depths of his acoustic, folk and balearic writing can be heard. born in madrid in 1958 to a family steeped in both classical and spanish traditional music, javier s unique mastery of guitar, percussion, voice, poetry and composition is drawn from both this grounding and upon his lifelong musical inquisitiveness . since 1980 he has been an integral part of the ancient music group atrium musicae . in 1984 he founded, with juan alberto arteche and luis delgado, the groundbreaking group finis africae as a sonic investigation into a fusion o f diverse ethnic musical forms incorporating both indigenous instruments and electronic elements. as a solo artist, his career blossomed when, in 1985, he recorded his first lp, the acclaimed recoletos and he has since recorded thirteen solo albums . with luis delgado he recorded the now classic album la fl or de piedra under the name ishinohana and regularly appears with singer ismael serrano. javier has composed music for and collaborated on many documentaries, films and advertisements as well as collaborating on protects with a myriad o f artists including maria del mar bonet, joaquin diaz, vainica doble, marina heredia, pablo guerreo, antonio vega and cafe del mar. today he participates in the sephardic music groups halilem and alquibla , as well as diverse alternative chamber music groups. javier works around the world as composer, arranger and producer and he appears daily with manolo hh on radio nacional de espana.

enter the spiral - the title of the opening track by the first collaborative work between sebastian mullaert and eitan reiter is not just a random name. it is a title which anticipates what can happen if you let yourself go alongside their nine epic musical trips.

industry sheds all personalized effort and tests how far you can get by using presets only. all sounds are factory presets of 3 obsolete 1990s japanese workstation synths, all effects are presets, all notes are quantized and most panning is purely accidental (laid out in the preset sounds). industry doesnt rely on successful presets, but on failed sounds of now obsolete synthesizers - industrial assumptions of where culture will go, but where it chose not to. the result is a surprisingly pleasant listening experience with effortless grooves and rich textures - and mildly demonic connotations. from smooth to kicking - a conveyor belt enjoying mood swings. as beautiful as the scheduled meeting of a pvc sheet and a thermoform mould on a workbench

what happens when you combine the ease of a charming voice with the love of experimentation of abstract electronica and traditional brazilian instruments? the result is a unique blend that in this form can only be heard on the new album by sol ruiz de galarreta entitled flying over brazil

this is armada lounge volume 7. forty tunes of staggering beauty and significant musical skill, at times poetic, and at times as careless as an island breeze packed with exclusive tunes, there are acoustic versions of classic records, like marco v & christian burns --frozen- and the wistful live performance of cosmic gate ft. emma hewitt - -be your sound-. dutch producer rodg returns once more with his rendition of lost at sea, and conjure one graces not one but four songs on the album. the second set features heavyweights like paul van dyk, andy moor, gabriel & dresden, chicane, and several tunes from lustral. classic tunes from highly respected artists and fresh recreations of the year s biggest records can all be found here. clearly a labor of love, -armada lounge vol. 7- will surely go down as one of the greatest lounge compilations of our time. this record proves that musicality and vision are still very much alive in 2014, and it reminds us all that the pinnacle of electronic music has still yet to be reached.

*broken circuit* is the meeting of minds between max wheeler and victoria port aka anushka. the results are one of the most enjoyable, unpretentious hybrid dance soul records you will hear all year.

in the past he has been dubbed -the godfather of the ibiza anthem- but chicane mastermind nick bracegirdle has come a long way since the sun drenched balearic shores first throbbed to the sound of what is now recognised by many as the archetypal chill out classic offshore . with over 15 top 10 s, a no.1 with bryan adams and with over 2 million compilations under his belt - there are not many dance artists who can claim to have hits over a 10 year period. chicane was later cast further into the public consciousness in 1999 with the release of the epic saltwater which featured maire brennan of clannad. then in 2000 with the number 1 smash hit don t give up featuring the gravely vocal tones of legendary rocker bryan adams, nick found himself a regular fixture on radio. the release of his second album behind the sun followed reaching the top 10 and becoming a major success across europe

visionquest welcome talented production trio rework onto the label with Ôyou playÕ, an album of eleven crisp and wonderfully rich tracks combining elegant rhythms with snappy vocals that blurs the distinction between the underground elite and modern popular culture.

pinning down sascha dive as cocoons deephouse wunderkind wouldnt really hit the nail on the head however it isnÕt far from truth. compared to most other artists of this genre he can for sure be classified as a young gun but there is no soundproof for his age in his music at all.

while the record can be enjoyed in one long listen, there are going to be different tracks that speak to individual listeners. clouded is one of the stronger arrangements, taking the sonic sweeps often heard from marcel dettmann or function and filling the surrounding space with dreamy samples and warm bass. stems is playful and fluid, and the records opener, rise is an eerie and melodic tinkering intro. as a whole, the release of hinterland on ghostly international is a perfect marriage the label has always had an affinity for music with depth and frequencies that can magnetize a wide variety of listeners

perfekt getimed, kehrt omar nun mit einem brandneuen album zurueck, von dem nicht wenige sagen, es sei ohne zweifel das stŠrkste seiner gesamten karriere. der wirbel, den bereits die veroeffentlichung des titeltracks the man als erste single ausloeste, bestaetigt, dass omar sich unbestreitbar auf der hoehe seine kunst befindet szene-groe§en wie gilles peterson (bbc 6), trevor nelson (radio 2) und jamie cullum haben sich zu recht fuer die nummer begeistert und sie als neuerlichen beweis seiner legendaeren faehigkeit gefeiert, umwerfend eingaengige melodien zu schreiben, der er auf diesem brandneuen, jetzt schon als klassiker zu bezeichnenden song, auch noch eine produktion verpasste, die funkier ist, als alles was man bisher von ihm kannte

two classic albums on one cd! the first coba gooding album love dancer. digitally remastered from original motown tapes!

its all too easy for nostalgia to tip into something negative. at its best its a celebration of the best the past has to offer while putting it into a contemporary context, at its worst its moaning that things arent as good as they used to be. hercules & love affair have always been firmly in the first category. main man andy butler takes classic house and disco sounds and uses them to craft dance music that has one foot in the past, the other cutting a rug on dancefloors right now. its a well-judged and expertly executed balance.

fusing latin american sounds with european electronic beats can often produce a bland and rudderless dross destined for derivative lounge compilations and deliriously dull playlists at pretentious after work cocktail bars. not so with the aptly named 1st trip, the superb sophomore effort from the equally aptly named los transatlanticos.
