a year and a half after black merlin (george thompson) opened the common thread series with the much praised new world fantasy / ice house release george sent over some adventurous bits for a follow up and we were immediately sold. george is a true artist in his own right. all of the black merlin tracks evoke different sentiments. this time around the feeling it bring up is very conflicted. both tracks have those dark aesthetics with elements of paranoia and both also share some apocalyptic elements. it is for this reason that this is the perfect follow up for ct01. instead of just releasing music on vinyl we (with the blessings of zoroaster) are looking to evoke spirits, cross boundaries and maintain quality. major cliches, but with an artist like black merlin on your books, cliches sometimes become truth.

from newcastle to london via the midlands comes tough luck records, a label ran by four friends - chris cue, rebel, twon and anna wall. pressing vinyl as well as releasing digitally, their debut release was named single of the month by mixmag (uk) in august 2013 and like a fine wine the label has been getting better with age. with the follow up releases also selling out, the label has featured music from ed davenport and the jaydes (bloody mary & attan). the last release which featured rising star elliot adamson, picked up dj support from people including ten walls, breach, dan curtain and adam shelton to name but a few. this new release features two original tracks from jack wickham who has fast been carving out a name for himself with releases on one records, drumma and get physical music, with forthcoming releases already signed to visionquest and air london. remixes coming from nikola gala and jonny lawrence. pressing on blue vinyl.

on their 2013 debut album voyage, l.a. duo de lux introduced their singular sound, a fusion of post-punk, disco, funk and synth wizardry. fun though voyage was, described by the guardian as -intricate, witty, inventive, dazzling and by dj mag as fresh, immediate, for their follow-up, de lux felt compelled to add an element of social commentary to the mix.

steve murphys curiously long shadow casts itself ever further over the realms of gritty house and techno with a barn-storming follow up on the lobster theremin core series, this time ratcheting up the tempo and rhythm to epic levels. shed-esque kicks thunder over asteroid-crumbling basslines, crackling wooden percussion is slammed into the muggy dirt and leaves, seriously filthy, rolling numbers for the all night crew.
*uk treatment* kicks and thumps in all the right places, with a stuttering synth stab loop and vocals giving it some serious peak time currency. *spleen* is all sludgy, skittering mpc business, while *rules* goes off-key chicago and *total recall 2084* swims around, pestered in the mud until a lonely, droning piano key scares away the flanged swarm of wasps and noise.

the second part in the hudd traxx 10th anniversary *now & then* compilation sees tracks from luna city express, sek, iz & diz and rick wade. berlin duo luna city express serve up a lush deep house groove that builds throughout the track, and will bring a smile to the faces of those who follow them on their beloved moon habour recordings. sek uses slick beats, trippy leads, a driving bassline and some *thug life* vocals to ensure this one has future classic written all over it. go back in time (to 2006 to be precise) on the then side to find iz & dizs *happy*. the words epic & journey are often misused in music but both can be mentioned about this track. it had devastating effect on first release and is set to do the same again nearly 10 years later. rick wade closes things out in fine style to fly the detroit flag on an all chicago / detroit side.

yes, so we re finally here, the 100th release of gamm enterprises ! since the very first release with red astaire s now classic follow me gamm have remixed, reworked and edited almost every style under the black music banner. gamm have and will always aim to deliver dj friendly black dance music regardless of style. gamm simply bring out that little extra in your favourite tunes. so for our 100th anniversary release we thought we really needed to bring out the big guns. what could be better than an ep where the mighty the reflex and up and coming remix star moplen came together and re-work the greatest artist of al time, michael jackson! sounds pretty good right? the reflex, moplen and mj...what a trio! well, there s not much more to say really except that if you like disco, boogie and mj this is the biggest musical home run of all time. lets boogie...gamm style!

disco club is a groundbreaking 1978 ep of experimental electronic disco created by fvre and his collaborator under their tongue-in-cheek aliases joachim sherylee and junior claristidge. the aphex twin-backed rephlex label notably reworked a handful of disco club tracks in 2004, however this is the first ever reissue of the ep in its complete, originally intended sequence. so synonymous is fvres career with this release, he continues to perform internationally as black devil disco club today. an impossibly rare piece, this edition has been treated to a remaster from the original tapes by fvre himself.

the mysterious usio project first showed its bewitching janus-face in 2013 with the release of kuwa huru, a star-striking collection of electronic blues for the dance floor that also constituted the first full-length album to appear on studio barnhus. kuwa jasiri is a follow-up and an appendix and something entirely new these four tracks stem from intense rehearsals of usios emotive, energetic live show (coming soon, if youre lucky, to a dark basement/dewy forest floor near you). the breezing funk of opening track gonna make it, the freakish stomp of planet dust, over the andes in all its precipitous acid-jammin glory and contemplative, elegant closing track pamoja have all captivated us at studio barnhus. its a beautiful night outside so we thought it might be time to let these birdies fly.

seb wildblood returns to the skint imprint as a follow up to his 2014, barcelona / blue colour ep. shadowed by his label mate apes, this release sees the two take on either side of the 10 inch with a familiar sound echoed by their church imprint. wildblood ignites the record with the bubbly and soothing concocton of noshi that fows seemingly under the vocals of phantasy afliate kelly lee owens. apes sits close on the fip side with a more club friendly ode to london, mortmer road. an eerie night time synth crawls through the suburban sounds of apes we ve been conditoned with since the up-rise of the church sound.

to release a new piece of music, it would seem, is to enter a competition for approval and appearances: who will play that track and how many will follow. likes. clicks. transient signs of appreciation, or perhaps just vague nods of confirmation. but what about all those values inherent in music that just cant be quantified? if merely one single person would listen to these songs and find herself or himself genuinely moved by them, wouldnt it be worth it? we think so. we really do.

aaaas debut album *shiva watts* sounds both vivid and complex, capturing the raw energy of the mexican producers praised live performances at mutek, boiler room and elsewhere. it is a direct result of tireless, disciplined experimentation with analogue hardware. the 16 tracks on *shiva watts*, which is available for the first time ever on vinyl through the berlin-based antime label, take their cues from a variety of musical styles, most notably acid, combining elements of hard-hitting techno, textural idm, dry-but-funky electro and trance-inducing house with lush ambient-leaning interludes. *shiva watts* is an album which celebrates stylistic and emotional ambiguity, which provides the perfect soundtrack for a world yet to come - and everything that will follow after that. the vinyl lp includes a download code.

anders enges interest in modular synthesizers comes from a desire to shut down conscious decisions about form and to focus on rhythm and timbre. this does however not land in traditional techno but rather in a riff-oriented style, the riff being both rhythm and melody and also a morphing entity in the music. drums and percussion attempt to follow this entity, while maintaining a link to the dance music pulse. the resulting style makes for a hybrid timewarped experience of travelling a parallell electronic music reality, a brooding technoid that grooves

six years on from his debut album on cadenza, mirko loko returns to the fold with a follow up album (- comet plan -) and a single (- kolor -).
2009s * seventynine* long player helped catapult mirkos profile, not only as a producer, but also as dj, regularly spinning alongside the cadenza crew, and with detroit luminaries such as derrick may and carl craig. and its on this single that mirko invites friend and peer, carl craig, to remix under his c2 guise. wearing his influences on his sleeve, mirko is obviously indebted to the techno music of the motor city, and these classic detroit tropes are certainly used in the building blocks of the original mix of “kolor-, a sprawling and pacey intergalactic journey sprinkled with a dusting of xylophones, bells & chimes, as the melody is driven forward for a heady trip across the night skies.
