simply he has never done us. the low-key friendly turkish producer with the unpronounceable name, has never made music for the hip all-together-happiness-floor. the man comes from jazz and blues. and at tolga baklacioglu means electronic music production to test the depths of house music. sometimes tricky, sometimes playful, sometimes psychedelic, but always deep. his tracks have often a length of eleven or twelve minutes. music takes time. prime-time music sounds different. and that is why we like him. and so tolga published with *feeling now and then* his fourth lebensfreude - ep. music that was heard up to buenos aires, where the argentine producer and dj violett (telegraph/unfoundsound/igloo) contributed a functionally magical remix. one thing we know. this time it will not be simple again. luckily.

tief is well know in london and beyond as being a clubnight where it resides at corsica studios, showcasing house and techno of only the highest quality, a standard that is now to be transferred to a record label tief music releasing music that we truly love from artists who have a connection with us or what we do.

following on from the release of david ks well-received sneakers & playground ep, the unnerving pairing of nico & pherox (aka tim querengaesser) return with a record that is veiled by in a dark and mysterious shroud. nico (previously known as verena) is a young and fresh female artist, influenced from an early age by the classical work of her father (who worked as a music composer), whilst pherox is a more familiar presence in todays deep clubbing landscape, having released on mupa, catenaccio, dumb unit, stock5 and his very own label, slash. on this ep, the pair explore a broad palette of sounds, taking in italian horror film-esque chords, chopped and screwed vocal samples, rolling basslines, soothsaying vocals, drawn out fog horn stabs. this is deep music, flavoured by the nocturnal, tinted by the eighties, and ultimately full of originality.

2 years ago this producer was approached by miss kittin to remix a track of his choice, from her recently completed solo album. for various reasons, these mixes have never seen the light of day, apart from sporadic airings in said producers dj sets. now, finally, these unofficial remixes are released lovingly, on vinyl only, in a finite number, with the permission of the kittin herself... btw, already played by dxon

on our never ending search to provide you with uplifting, energetic and soulful tracks, we stumbled upon a young dj duo from the netherlands that have only just begun their story and yet have their sound locked down. new jack city seem to understand exactly what it is we re looking for and have crafted three splendid tracks purely for the enjoyment of others. to top it all off we ve enlisted signor gianni siravo a.k.a. washerman for a remix which captures the spirit of tomorrow is now, kid!we hope you enjoy this ep as much as we have creating it

he has been in the game for 15 years now, and throughout ark has proven he is not one to spread himself thinly. leading up to 2010Æs arkuarium on thema, he had released a string of collaborations that wandered enthusiastically and whose experimentalism culminated on that record. apart from a few celebrated remixes since then, ark has been busy in the studio crafting a new batch of focused heat, mostly alongside his brother pit spector, himself a respected producer and dj known from associations with circus company and minibar. as we finish exploring a heavier sound with our well received re:vision series, the sophisticated deep house tracks on ark and pit spectors new call of the horns ep announce a new direction for the artists and a direction we seek to illuminate as we define the different shades of the spectrum at thema.

alex font is a serious guy who knows that now is his time. a multi-instrumentalist, as well as a producer and dj, he can sometimes be seen on stage in trademark shirt and bow tie. he declares himself a lover of vinyl and, above all, what he calls real house. i think that says it all.

up next on scubas hotflush recordings is the stunning debut ep >forever for now< from 20 year-old duo shelter point. through the use of field recordings, upright pianos, their own chopped and screwed vocals and a varied palette of synths, the pair have created a lush and elegant four track love letter that is bound to make their contemporaries stand up and take note. >braille< sets the scene, its wistful, haunting vocals delicately slinking along to emotive and complex analogue synths, only slightly changing course on the vibrating and discordant 80s inspired >hold on me<. on the flip is the title track, a compelling and experimental piano ballad, rich with vinyl crackle and a bittersweet lyrical flow (forever burned your picture in my mind) followed by the pop-inspired >sleep easy<, a sweetly composed bedroom soul production kitted out with filtered synths and dubbed out atmospherics. a unique and memorable debut from a very bright new talent, shelter point is here to stay.

to mark its 11th release ce launches a new v/a compilation series featuring exclusive material from some of the hottest names in electro from across the globe right now. the world electronix series will be strictly limited to 4 x single press 12”s with no re issue. the first instalment of world electronix aims to showcase the darker dance floor side of the genre. the series kicks off with parisian resident carl a finlow aka silicon scally who turns in a signature style machine tech roller reminiscent of his early scsi av works. the duty then shifts to spain s number one electro export boris divider with a clinical, tight, rother-esque groove. on the flip we see london based ce label head sync 24 join forces with australia s abstract forms label owner deixis. the debut release for these 2 artists is a spooky,spacey affair with haunting vocals and a killer sub!rounding off the ep are finnish duo morphology, who alter the proceedings with a freaky 4/4 electro piece. the following editions of world electronix will include tracks from e.r.p, versalife, gosub, the exaltics, crc, dynarec, fastrgraph, plant43, defekt, steve allman, sync 24 & deixis. watch this space!

for now is the second ep by brooklyn duo beacon, five songs that continue the bands exploration of the dark spaces under the surface of human relationships. as with the bands debut ep no body, for now is a record that conceals a great deal of depth beneath a melodic veneer— again, there is a stark contrast between thomas mullarneys honeyed vocals and the words he is singing, although this time the mood is perhaps less sinister and more reflective.

butane continues to push his sound well beyond the frontiers of trendy dance music with >we are all cyborgs now<, his latest tour-de-force on his own alphahouse records imprint. apparently not interested in assimilation for the sake of popularity, he rather blazes his own wide-cut path towards artistry with two future-techno cuts rife with pointed commentary on the nature of todays dance music scene. >everybodys talkin< is a mutant hybrid of styles for the nostalgic types. latin percussion and bin-busting bass mingle with an ethereal voice lamenting the passing of the good old days. throw in one utterly twisted xylophone note that might just send a few partygoers over the edge for good, and you have an open air after-hours anthem in the making. >hey hipster< is a not-so-subtle jab at the newjack hipsters of the dance world who seem content to recycle old ideas, as long as they think they look cool doing it. deceptively simple, but carrying a heavy hook, the track features a grooving bassline, speaker busting synth stabs, and a brooding male voice admonishing these party parasites for their shallow ways. listen up kids, this is the sound of the underground. dont be fooled, this kind of music is best heard in big dark clubs where mirrors arent there for checking out your trendy haircut.

big with: danny krivit, dimitri from paris, dj spinna, robert owens, tony humphries, ... soul purpose bring some old school house vibes to >sounds in the air< which up until now has been lurking deep in the z vaults. crisp beats and contemporary sounds make this a sure-fire winner for almost any type of house set

“kind of blue” is probably the best-selling jazz record of all time. we precede the familiar stereo version with the legendary “kind of blue” mono mix - legendary because columbia records claimed that the tapes had been discarded long ago. the avaxhome audiophile website approved of the new perspective mono offers on a time-honoured classic, saying: “if you’re only used to hearing it in stereo, this will be a different experience. it sounds kind of “forward”, particularly the saxes. overall it has a nice timbre, especially in the midrange.”
vinyl 1: mono version (cl 1355)
vinyl 2: stereo version (cs 8163)

>where are you now< was originally released in 2009 as the second release on best works records. a track in which lodemanns 90ies house-music knowledge is combined with the sounds of today always keeping the equilibrium between a classic american house-feel and berlin-ortientated somewhat minimal influence. of course the track also clearly shows lodemanns typical dramatic changes. the track became an underground hit over the years with a lot of people doing their own edits. we decided to re-release it with some remixes by some of our favorite artists incl. jimpster and ripperton. both managed to interpret the original vibe in their own way.

after only a tiny time-out cómeme can t help but remain restless and return even more internationalist than before, since this ep brings together artists from moscow, medellin and cologne, as well as guests from spain. its a collection of tracks that translate comemes ever quintessential voltage into different musical temperaments, drawing the bow from infectious semi-electronic body music and cumbia-inspired rhythm affairs to detached pitch-frenzied sequence-disco and a sphinxy creature with fanfares and whiplashes.
