nice price deal !!! four years since osunlade has graced us with an original full length house album. his next release and self-proclaimed last house release is nearing the gate. pyrography is an evolution incorporating the signature yoruba soul sound, bridging organic and electronic. braced with more vocal songs than any of osunlades previous house offerings, he has created an innovative endeavour. tracks including idiocyncracy, the infectious envision, and the yoruba chant of ser al santisimo showcase the wonderful palette of the musical diversity encompassed here. in addition to the album itself, osunlade has teamed up with the amazing talent of pyrography artist scott marr to create an original art experience harking back to the days when these two art forms were one and showcasing the synergy between them. the result is a very special selection of >fire paintings< created for each track making up the artwork for pyrography.

a 2nd, killer presentation of assured nigerian and ghanaian highlife classics selected by the good, good people at vampi soul. it features nineteen tracks by essential artists of the genre such as et mensah & the tempos, dr victor olaiya, prince nico mbarga, dr sir warrior, and rex lawson, plus extensive notes by experts, rita may and max reinhardt, and artist photos.

finally dessous key-artist vincenzo is back in the spotlight with his third full length album. some 9 years after âwelcome to zanarkandÕ, his last long-player, the berlin based producer has been making magic in the studio, crafting what is sure to be his greatest work yet.âwherever i lay my headÕ is a glorious journey through 14 tracks of rich, spiritual and stunningly crafted electronic sounds. vincenzoÕs cristal clear production and years of writing experience have culminated in this heroic new work.

whats the point of a concept album when no one hears the concept in it? maybe that it sets a boundary, forcing mr artist to go even deeper into the fewer possibilities left. creativity by limitation and all thatÉ well spare you further theorizing. >fever<, the third longplayer by dutch low end scientist 2562, then, is his disco album: a thorough reinterpretation of underground disco music from the mid seventies to the early eighties, with his own birthyear 1979 as the gravitational point. all based on one simple rule: every single sound, from the smallest background shiver to the most obese sub bass, originates from a disco record Ð no additional synthesizers, drumcomputers or other samplesources involved. disco-edits, italo homages or filtered loops then? hardly. this is genuinely new and retro-free music that respectfully flips its sources so hard even the biggest paradise garage connaisseurs wont recognize what just hit them. or in the words of musical allies martyn and pinch, who independently drew the same conclusion: >sorry, but i dont hear that whole disco story in there. this simply sounds like you.< completely failed as a concept album, then Ð and all the better for it.

>patio de juegos<, which translates as >playground<, is a wonderful multi-genre journey through the mind of an artist who is both on top of his game, and on the rise towards the stars. lashings of his ever-present south american heritage infuse with incredibly intricate and perfectly simple house structures that give the whole album its almost >child at play< ethos that is rarely found in electronic music. future club hits such as >wanna be<, with its nod to the historical upbeat lineage of house music, and >all the girls<, with its chugging rhythm, trickling piano loops and erotic vocals sit effortlessly alongside more experimental and jazz inspired tracks such as the explorative >still here<. another fine example is >sun<, with its deep bass line punctuated with the sun-soaked synths and summer high-hats that export listeners away to a warm utopia. guti produces a number of tracks with high profile artists from both within and outside the dj fraternity - a sign of his increasing popularity within electronica, and also his innate ability to collaborate with more mainstream artists.

get ready for a musical journey so deep you may not be able to dig yourself out. nor may you want to. blazingly hot on the smoking heels of the 19 predecessors of the highest ranks of house dj/producers whove blessed this series before him, like joe claussell, ron trent, grammy award winners louie vega & david morales, teddy douglas & dj spen (aka basement boys & muthafunkaz), danny krivit, tony humphries, and a ton of others who superbly compiled and mixed these compilations in the past, hip house producer/dj & sole channel/vega records recording artist mr. v joins this exclusive club and doesnt disappoint. using 18 of the latest and greatest tunes culled from the catalog such as the k&n dub of johnnydangerous >mr vs revenge<, alex kenjis remix of david harness >shake< the original rough mix of ananda projects >aura protection< ivan iacobuccis unreleased original mix of his recent >ritual< release, the deep & magnetic unreleased moodymanc extended mix of tomoki tamuras >the rough< and tomo inoues phenomenal unreleased swingin dub of siren-ic house singer stephanie cookes >sweetest thing<, to name very few, make this 20th anniversary edition of the series one for the musical books. all aboard!

debut album from curv on vinyl vibes records ... after various successful 12inch releases on vinyl vibes, the label introduce their first artist album from curv. while in the past mixing organic and clubby elements, deeply rooted in soul and jazz, curv recently developed a stronger love for electronic music, splendidly reflected in this fantastic record. between here and nowhere is not just another electronic album as one might expect. it features a unique style of warm, analog sounding club music which makes perfect sense as a listening experience too. it would not be curv if jazz, funk and disco didnt feature, if he would not occationally mix the electronic beats with some natural sounding drums, the keyboards with some piano. but he is now putting all these things into an electronic context of house beats, naughty electro and even deep minimal. in between all of this you still find all those stunning little details that make his music curv-music in its very own & special way.

this summer beni will continue to reign the dancefloor supreme with a new monster slab of black plastic, maximus featuring vocals from the mighty sam sparro. who put the fun in acid-funk you ask? the answer is: beni did. a low-slung exercise in dark and dirty arpeggiated sleaze, maximus marries a sparse bubble-groove that creeps up behind you and licks your ear with a very purple vocal performance by sparro to devastating effect. the resulting track is something akin to kiss-era prince and friends dirty dancing at a toga party while ancient rome burns down around them. on the flipside beni and nicky night time give maximus a night-time re-dub rubdown, taking the track away from the creepy funk freak and towards a straighter slammer jammer, favouring blatant dancefloor manipulation over the subtle and the sexy. also featured (and included on the next kitsune maison 7 installment) is fringe element, which encapsulates the feeling of surfing on a shooting star like never before, with beni sitting proudly at the controls. an electronic orchestra of descending basslines, vocoder snippets, bleeps and acid squeaks, fringe element caps off another compelling chapter in benis lifelong voyage through dance. after the cover of his first ep my love sees you made by geneviíve gauckler, his new 12 is illustrated by french artist andre.
