rundum-sorglos-groove-paket zum zurŸcklehnen und genie§en. re-release von 2000. sei es mit peter kruder als kruder & dorfmeister oder rupert huber als tosca, wenn richard dorfmeister seine finger im spiel bzw. an den reglern hat, darf man sich auf entspannt-fluffige klŠnge zwischen trip-hop, dub und downtempo einrichten. tosca wurde 1994 gegrŸndet, erstaunlicherweise schon kurz nach dem start von k&d. ihr debŸt gaben tosca 1997 mit -opera-. dessen nachfolger -suzuki- kam im jahr 2000 in die lŠden. beide alben erschienen bei !k7 und g-stone, dem label von peter kruder und richard dorfmeister. -suzuki- hat nichts mit kleinen japanischen autos oder monsterbikes zu tun, vielmehr versteht sich die veršffentlichung als hommage an den zen-meister shunryu suzuki. das album enthŠlt in der cd-version zwšlf und in der vinyl-ausgabe neun instrumentaltracks, in die vocal-samples instrumentenartig eingeflochten wurden. vielen fans des šsterreichischen duos gilt -suzuki- mit seinen -hypnotic, deeply chilled-out epics- (allmusic) als dessen beste einspielung. die neuauflage von -suzuki- ist die erste seit 2000.

paul woolford aka special request bleibt seinem typischen, sehr britischen rave-stil treu und liefert - nach releases auf namhaften labels wie planet e (carl craig), running back (gerd janson), xl recordings oder houndstooth - ein atemberaubendes fabric-set ab, das mit klassischem uk und detroit techno von richard d. james (caustic window, polygon window), cristian vogel und dj stingray beginnt, um sich im verlauf zu einer tour de force diverser schattierungen von jungle, drum & bass und noise zu entwickeln.

2 cd compilation incl. 31 tracks and remixes from artists like joris voorn, the orb, florian kruse, rex the dog, bookashade, purple disco machine and tube & berger.

a collaboration between aphex twin (richard d. james) and µÐziq (mike paradinas), mike & rich - Õexpert knob twiddlersÕ was made back in 1994. richard edited the tracks into shape later in 1996 with his new apple mac computer and it was released later that year on rephlex, the label he co-owned and which released the first two albums by µ-ziq. this new reissued version has been carefully cleaned up, re-edited and remastered from the original dat tapes, put into a more fitting order and, more excitingly, seven new bonus tracks and alternative versions have also been added. the album was recorded over a few days during the 1994 world cup, back when richard lived in a big shared flat in stoke newington. richard had tried to collaborate with a few other likeminded artists but something clicked when mike and rich worked together and the sessions have a unique feel, playful and at times actually drunk. these are fun experiments in the spirit of lighthearted moog pop and ripe 70s british tv themes, standing out from the po-faced electronica of the time with a garish glee. the record was made on what is now seen as pretty primitive gear - an atari, roland mks-80, memorymoog, roland r8 and a handful of samples on a casio fz-10m - but itÕs to their credit that it resonates well with the hardware workouts coming out today. there s a broadminded but sloppy funk to the record, even whistling, singing and harpsichord in reg and wonky beat pile-ons in jelly fish . there s latin piano and wheezy drunken techno in ÔvodkaÕ, or the sleepy spaced out ambience of Ôbu bu bu ba with its barely contained laughter which seems to reflect the absurdity. the new versions and bonus tracks are an absolute delight - from a trancier version of Ôvodka to the wonky bounce of Ôportamento gosh , the 3/4 dub of waltz, the banging door bass of brivert and muonds , the creepy seasick atmosphere of clissold bathroom and finishing with the strangely graceful and serious organ plodder . a generous and welcome return to the racks

aphex twin aka richard d. james meldet sich mit der fantastischen -cheetah ep- zurŸck, auf der er mit deepen, melodischen techno und acid im frŸh-90er-style Ÿberrascht. benannt ist die ep nach dem synthesizer cheetah ms800, eines der am schwierigsten zu programmierenden instrumente der welt, mit dem richard die meisten dieser tracks aufnahm. das artwork ist ebenfalls im 90er-retro-style gehalten. cd und tape enthalten einen weiteren bonustrack, der dem vinyl per download-code ebenfalls beigefŸgt ist.

die neue ferry corsten cd vereint seine drei digitalen hello world eps aus 2015 und erweitert die 13 tracks mit drei neuen und bisher noch unveršffentlichten remixen von richard durand, leon reverse und craig connelly. somit wird das hello world album zu einem weiteren zeugnis der stilistischen vielfalt des ferry corsten, die von electro Ÿber trance/progressive bis zu techno, house und darŸber hinaus reicht, egal ob vocal-track oder dancefloor-hammer.

seit Ÿber zehn jahren steht der britische dj matt tolfrey, nebenbei betreiber des leftroom-labels, an den decks des londoner fabric-clubs und stellt nun erstmals seine definition eines sexy und schwei§treibenden dancefloorsets auch in der gleichnamigen cd-reihe vor. dabei mixt er sich eigenwillig durch styles und jahrgŠnge, nur auf die ultimative funkiness achtend, was ihm hervorragend gelingt.

exzellente retrospektive des kleinen, aber feinen tirk-labels mit 13 perlen seiner historie, darunter tracks und remixes von sugardaddy (aka tom findlay/groove armada), chaz jankel (blockhead-veteran mit seiner hymne im tollen todd terje-remix), space (den franzšsischen space-disco-heroen der 1970 er), the time and space machine (aka richard norris), greg wilson, richard sen, u.v.a. mit ausfŸhrlichen linernotes von rob wood (ex-jockey slut).

18 monate nach seinem legendŠren - goa mix- folgte 1996 die - perfecto fluoro-compilation, die ein weiterer meilenstein des genres goa/trance/progressive werden sollte. nach diesem erfolg etablierte oakenfold das gleichnamige sublabel, das sich bis heute ausschlie§lich mit diesem hŠrteren, psychedelischen trancesound beschŠftigt. die vierte -we are planet perfecto- ausgabe ist heute, 18 jahre spŠter, eine widmung an diesen sound und dieses label. 42 top-tracks, darunter sieben unveršffentlicht und exklusiv, beweisen einmal mehr, dass goa-trance nichts von seiner energie und intensitŠt verloren hat und bis heute trance-fans begeistern kann

walking through the skyÉfive 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.

als meisterliche fusion aus gitarre, synths und beats wurde das asphodells debuetalbum ruled by passion, destroyed by lust von der fachpresse bezeichnet. andrew weatherall und tim fairplay luden daraufhin freunde und nachbarn ein, darunter ivan smagghe, justin robertson und daniel avery, ihre eigenen interpretationen zu erstellen. das ergebnis ist eine elektronische exkursion voller ideenreichtum und stilvielfalt, die es dem hoerer nicht leicht macht, den besten track zu benennen, denn sie sind es alle.

do you love elegant, sophisticated music with a feeling, as much as raw, gutsy, hard-hitting music? guessing that you do penniman records takes great pride in introducing you to the excitements, because their music fits into both categories. they are an all natural free-of-additives-and-preservatives r&b / soul band. a band with both feet solidly planted on memphis and detroit, and with a heartbeat which is pure chicago. to put it simply, the excitements are what the doctor ordered: six dynamite musicians intent on bringing out the very best from koko jean davis extraordinary voice, a voice which will either break your heart or astonish your ears, whatever koko fancies the most. the excitements career is truly awesome. their first gig took place in july 2010, and a month after that the band embarked on the first of their three recording sessions, their first spanish tour and a series of concerts all across europe. very few groups can boast of enjoying such a critical success, selling so many 45s and capturing such a loyal following in so short a time. their splendid first album, -the excitements- available on vinyl and cd - has been produced by the great mike mariconda - the only living man with a direct connection between his ears and his crotch. hearing is believing, and koko and her partners are bound to mesmerize with numbers such as nathaniel mayer s -from now on-, barbara stephens s -wait a minute- and little richard s -never let you go-, a track which will go straight to your heart. you may call them old-fashioned. a classic sound, if you wish. one thing is clear: the good stuff is here to stay. stop reading, listen to the excitements and hear for yourself.

the album has a very fragile, stripped down and haunting sound and is being roundly praised for it s beauty and simplicity drawing numerous comparisons to his early work with the beta band on the -3 eps- album. having previously recorded as both king biscuit time and black affair, both largely electronic based projects, steve mason enlisted the help of producer richard x and consciously made a decision to go back to basics: the album was written entirely on acoustic guitar with many of the finished tracks stripped back to reveal his undoubted songwriting talent. this special bonus edition includes a bonus disc of the album -ghosts outside- which sees the original album given a dub reworking by dennis bovell.

in the year of the saxophone, santa barbaras gardens & villa give us the flute. and along the way, g&v effectively wipe clear the vaseline from the murky bedroom funk of recent days. g&v bang out instant classics - each crystal clear and immaculate, but no less sweeping or languid. their debut is a youthful exploration of just how opulent and pop starkness can go. it also leaves an impression of california in the way that richard diebenkorns ocean park series or the pool party scene from the graduate both do, always sensed more than stated outright.

it was 1975 and a mere 24 years since ike turner lit the blue touch paper on rock n roll with the incendiary rocket 88 , when a small independent record company emerged from a couple of second-hand record stores in london. it was just before the fuse was lit on another stage in the rock n roll story with the emergence of punk rock and chiswick records helped strike the match - commencing with the release of the count bishops speedball ep. with the same people at its head, the label evolved into ace records and they are proud to be celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2005. ace has become the leading in-depth catalogue company in the world and has issued a vast amount of the best and most important music released in the us from the time of that first ike turner recording to the launch of their own company. that crucial period forms the core of the extensive ace catalogue. they have often wandered off this central path, with excursions into world music, some home-made recordings of local acts and have investigated beat music from belfast to tokyo. but it is at the heart and soul of rock n roll that you will find ace putting out that wild and frantic, deep and romantic, funky and punky music that will sure nuff turn you on!
