after exploring over 6 hours worth of unreleased original material from the relentlessly prolific and ever expanding production catalog of will azada, cgi is extremely proud to present these 3 stand-out cuts that represent a depth of production skill and aesthetic range unparalleled in today’s over-saturated dance music landscape. confronting the clichés head-on, azada breathes new life into tried-and-true templates of jacking, industrial funk and synth-y groovers with his remarkable ear for arrangement and sense of movement, masterfully exploiting the infinitely renewable resource of subtle variations that he continuously unfolds throughout the tracks’ durations. the material runs the gamut from the stark, throbbing, industrial workout “the whip” to the melody-driven, synth-fueled ecstasy of “michalski’s theme” and the chord-driven, vocal-chopped house of “cliché.” the fact that an ep this unique and diverse can also feel so unified is a testament to the vision on display here.

discrete formants ii zooms the audience deep into underwater landscapes, from bizarre and seemingly endless open space down to the finest organized microcosms. five tracks full of analogue warmth and idiosyncratic modular synthesizer interaction that are driven by semantic coupling between major phases and small details. as most dscrt acoustic patterns are growing characteristic complexity by situational combination and permutation of interacting sound sets, the 300 copies of this release are double-stamped, hand numbered and pressed in blue marbled vinyl, returning each piece of them to the product of a unique moment in space and time.

audiolith - musical luckybag with a masterplan. ten years from now, back in 2003 the label started as musical one-man-show without any kind of business plan. a decade has passed since then and audiolith grew into a proper company with two associates, employees, office, online mailorder store and not less than 200 releases under its belt. but still some things never change, especially when it comes to release politics. no matter what ever style comes in whenever the boss likes it there will be a release. no compromise, no fear of failure that is what audiolith is all about and lars lewerenz is, has been and stays the musically approving authority, no matter if we talk electropunk, drum n bass, indie or punkrock, hiphop, trap, deep. emotin-driven house or electropop. his widely varied taste is the reason why audiolith still remains fresh and surprising a musical luckybag, but one with a masterplan. now the year is 2013 and audiolith is still loved by many - and hated by some for giving away golden gifts to fans instead of waiting for presents itself.

if chicago and detroit are the cities in which house and techno were born and raised, it was in italy circa 1990 that this delirious party music experienced a piano-driven coming of age. so far, so spangled. but while that may be the official story, there are other italian narratives too. take francois le roy and nanni for instance - two djs and producers from southern italy for whom, in the early nineties, the likes of aphex twin, autechre and air liquide were important, alongside the machine funk of detroit and the immersive soundtracks of the ambient generation. both artists are steeped in underground club music, and their new release on shabby doll records is a fine example of tough, tech-edged house. the *crossing roads* ep features four tracks that showcase their melodic yet relentless groove, they may be based in milan, but on this record, the influence of detroit, chicago and new york runs deep.

the house reverends are a trinity of musicians in their own right combining talents through a love of vintage electronics, analogue tape, and downtuned rnb. they glide through londons club scene bringing a blend of fluid funk driven by their robotic drum machine. this ep is a three-stage journey into the hearts and souls of our shadowy heroes. it is a story of love. drivetime the first tune is a slow motion seduction. a musical massage. it is a high-grade slow dance that works from dinner til dawn. girl, i know one for the body poppers. a tense number expressing the addictive pain of lust. vocoder voices straining with desire as the fever grows. curious lady a dream-like climax. gaze across the galaxy in awe and surrender to the state of psychedelic ecstasy this song so easily conjures.

a few words by steffen bennemann: when i heard margot for the first time, i instantly fell in love with their synth-driven free- form kraut-techno. strong melodies, insanely well-shaped beats, sometimes driving, sometimes bravely bending the rules. after great releases on james holdens border community, ivan smagghes kill the dj and their own label we were more than happy to welcome them in our holger family. here they can show their more experimental side, far beyond common floor/listening conventions and full of synapse-tickling synth magic. plus a secret pop hit (trentaseitrenta), perfect for closing any exceptional club night.

with fans like amon tobin, skrillex and noisia (whove signed them to their division recordings label), youd expect neosignal to offer something different - and the german duo (aka drum & bass heroes phace & misanthrop) certainly dont disappoint. their debut album raum und zeit including the single planet online is out now! their influences range from can to kraftwerk and joy division to led zeppelin, and, while their music has elements of early krautrock, industrial and 80s ebm (electronic body music), its powered by 21st century, bass-driven production.

cambridge resident samuel emerson iliffe, aka ill life, is driven by a penchant for warping things. akin to warping his sonorous surname into the ill life moniker, he warps formely innocuous techno fare into a clangorous, concussive march of living, breathing percussion. samuels sonics seemingly owe a considerable amount to recent innovations from the likes of blawan or perc trax alumni, however his only fault is taking part in the phenomenon of synchronous innovation. before karenn coalesced, before clouds newest offerings started being rinsed, ill life had long since moulded his sound. it is infinite machines infinite regret to have discovered him so belatedly. but there is no use crying over spilled trax.
