for a brief moment hermans are cut free from their shackles and venture out from the black dungeon, dragging xylophones made from kraken bones and drums fashioned out of reptile skins the duo summon a battle chant from deep within. scores of allies join, endlessly banging the same rhythm relentlessly until the clouds draw and the red sun is no longer visible. a basic soul unit appears from the murkiness and descends upon the racket, bringing with him booming thunder and electric lightning, a dark army marching alongside him. the massive beat continues for days, shaking all those that hear it. slowy and steadily, the din subsides, the clouds part and the sun returns as hermans retreat back to the darkness to wait patiently until they are called upon again. zaires is the third of 12 releases from z o d i a c 4 4. one for each sign of the stars and then z o d i a c 4 4 is forever dead and gone. forever

it is rare to hear a debut 12 inch single that really blows you away. that is hardly a controversial statement, in truth, most producers take time to find their feet, developing a distinct style over a period of years, rather than months. magnesii, then, is something special. currently based in amsterdam. the previously unheard of producer has delivered a stunning debut 12 inch for tom tragos voyage direct label. raw, fuzzy and in turns melancholic, spellbinding and intense, its three tracks bubble and hiss to the distinct sound of vintage analogue hardware.

tartelets latest comes from glenn astro. currently residing in essen, he has spent a bit more than half his life djing and producing, first in the realm of hip-hop and more recently with an ear toward dance music. after his first releases in this style in 2011 and 2012, glenn really went for it in 2013 with a trio of eps that showed hip-hops soul and house musics drive are in no way mutually exclusive. this 26-year-old may embrace the latter these days, but when you close your eyes and let his gritty low-end do its dirty work, you will hear plenty of the formers bump still kicking around in there.

in recent times soul notes tilted a little towards more groove driven, distortion ladenmachine funk. snx001 is the missing release out of the snx series thus far. label head honcho kastil joins up with cologne based adryiano, who is quickly becoming one of the labels favorite household names. the signature snx sounds is developing into a dark psych-oriented club sound which this ep represents as never before. the opening track *snakes and holes* is pure percussive machinery with the heaviest overdriven kickdrums you will ever hear. on the a2, adryiano sets the mood with a low swinging bass and some eardrum deafening kicks which progresses into the b1 which is perced out to the max with some 303 bassline drama and distortion to top that off. for the b2 track, head honcho kastil shows off some lo-fi drum action on controversy.

for over 12 months thomas feriero aka avatism, our friend and label partner, has been staying at home and working on his album. he moved to berlin to work on it and now sadly (for us) yet (gladly) for him he is moving back to milan. poof! just like that. so what did this year entail exactly? well for some of us not much. we got to see him in his studio comfy pants a couple of times (he wears slippers) we heard his studio woes, ate pasta with him, drank beers and of course got to hear his album at every juncture. while this self-imposed exile may have been a little worrisome the result is fortunately spectacular. adamant is a glimpse into how a city shapes a life and how intrinsically life then shapes music.

russian producer neotnas deliveres >slow & steady<, his first ep on soundtravels (st006). we have already introduced him on our first various artist ep >point of view part 1< (st005). typical for his sound is that warm, organic feel all over his house and dubtechno productions. very often accompanied by female vocals and its almost like you hear somebody play a live instrument if you listen carefully. the ep kicks off with the massive floorfiller >trunk party<. an energetic, solid built up track with that bassline killer hook. >user mood< has that typical basic channel touch. dubby techno guided by a floating bassline and little pleasant delays. we are slowly moving forward with evolving sticky, dubby beats in the title track >slow & steady<. this one will warm up every dancefloor, but is also very welcome in the afterhours. the last addition to this ep is >hold<, a warm deephouse track with moody, hopeful and sensitive sounds which reflect beautiful emotions. timeless material again which covers you up like a warm blanket. enjoy!
