der kanadische produzent bt schrieb den score zum bollywood-mystery-thriller ittefaq es geschah eines nachts von regisseur abhay chopra aus 2018. die 29 tracks bilden eine ausgezeichnete klangkulisse aus downtempo-electronica und orchestral-symphonischen, klassischen instrumentals. bt bewies sich bereits in der vergangenheit mit arbeiten fŸr go, the fast & the furious, monster und diverse pixar-kurzfilme als hervorragender soundtrack-komponist.

alienus presents a new compilation comprising new and not so new faces on our beloved planet earth. this time, we would like to emphasize that truth is beyond consciousness and consciousness implies duality. consciousness would imply that one is conscious of the truth, hence separate from the truth. some wise humans reckon no one can know the truth, but can be in the truth. music wise, you will find some warm tones that evoke deep and ethereal feelings in the listener. it took us some time to pick specimens capable of delivering these highly sought-after emotions.

uppermost will be releasing his upcoming album with a completely new perspective that should change the course of his career, expanding to a brand new pop oriented approach but keeping his french signature at the core of the project. his previous hit tracks flashback and beautiful light have already generated more than 27 million combined streams across platforms, while mercedes-benz selected uppermost single disco kids to be featured in their formula one advertising campaign and starz/encore chose another of his instrumentals for their 2018 tv spot only few weeks ago. uppermost is being closely followed by international media leading to great articles from influent press channels such as djmag, vice, complex, paper magazine, and famous radios such as bbc 1 and virgin. in addition to releasing music via his own independent label uppwind records, uppermost has released music through powerful labels such as sony and ministry of sound and done official remixes for dada life, lemaitre and crystal fighters. he has also already shared french festival solidayss stage with madeon, yelle, fakear and die antwoord.

a decade has passed since tobias freund and max loderbauer aka non standard institute (nsi) released their enigmatic collection of non-standards. playing with mystery is the name of the game here as well. the new cd, entitled with the code 5863, is the result of collecting creative moments over years and stringing together twenty short pieces that jointly amount to almost an hour of playtime.

this compilation acts as an introduction to this electric, cool and uplifting music that was affecting so many enthusiastic dancers and dj / collectors. all the tracks on here are taken from one of the most prolific and emerging labels for this genre muse records that offered the complete spectrum of styles to fit in with this emerging scene crossing over with jazz fusion, be bop, vocals, electric keyboards, and percussion.

it seems somehow surprising that its only now that james zabiela enters the fold of balances compilation selectors. a perfect fit for the series, his unfeasibly intricate approach to djing shinesthrough on this sprawling two-parter, created through a back-and-forth process between his pioneer ddj-rz and ableton and featuring two exclusive new productions from the man himself.

(digipak / 4 page booklet) poignant, aggressive, but yet serene sound track created by jeff mills for and then there was light - a japanese film directed by tatsushi omori based on the novel hikari by shion miura.

das debŸtalbum von kelela ist ein vielschichtiges, oszillierendes portrŠt, das sich zugleich in die vergangenheit und in die zukunft des r&b erstreckt. was so nach relativ stabilen genregrenzen und zugehšrigkeiten klingt, wird in ihren hŠnden grenzenlos: take me apart steht fŸr sich, es ist ein neues element, das nach eigenen regeln funktioniert, sich aber doch einreihen lŠsst in einen kanon von klangverwandten jŸngeren albummeilensteinen. ehrlichkeit und verletzlichkeit waren schon immer die eckpfeiler ihrer musik auch wenn sie sich gelegentlich gepanzert in avantgardistischen electronica-schichtungen prŠsentiert, und auf take me apart geht sie nun sogar noch deutlich weiter, was den emotionalen tiefgang, wucht und gehalt ihrer message und auch die breite des klanglichen spektrums angeht. nach den lobeshymnen fŸr ihre hallucinogen ep, feature-beitrŠgen fŸr ihre langjŠhrige verbŸndete solange, danny brown oder zuletzt den gorillaz, und nach supportauftritten fŸr the xx, legt kelela mit take me apart den grundstein fŸr eine sehr vielversprechende karriere.

der mehrfach prŠmierte dan snaith veršffentlicht als caribou, daphni (und frŸher manitoba) auf label wie city slang, merge, leaf und domino. wŠhrend seine musik aus electronica, folk, shoegaze und neo-psychedelia mit dem oberbegriff dream-pop sehr gut beschrieben ist, legt er bei seinen dj-sets wert auf einen starken anteil an live-instrumentierung mit dichter, minimaler percussion und spielfreudigem, funk-infiltrierten bass und begibt sich damit in seelenverwandtschaft zu Šhnlich inspirierten kŸnstlern wie four tet oder floating points. dan snaith nutzt die gelegenheit, in der fabric-serie zu veršffentlichen und kreiert ein unikat aus vollstŠndig exklusivem und unveršffentlichten material, bestehend aus 23 eigenen tracks sowie 4 weiteren, exklusiven daphni-edits. - packaging: deluxe-packaging - dŸnne metallbox

was auf oracle ungeschliffen passiert, ist der erste output einer deutschen jazz supergroup. zunŠchst wollte man ein unperfektes spiritual jazz album aufnehmen, das vorbildern aus den siebzigern fršhnt (strata east, black jazz et cetera), einfach mal der leidenschaft nachgehen. und man wollte eine fiktive band erfinden, die es nicht gab, und rausposaunen, es handelt sich um ein unveršffentlichtes album von namhaften und beseelten typen aus den 70ern. nun ja: dann hŠtte man nie live konzerte geben kšnnen, von interviews ganz zu schweigen. kurzum, es wŠre schwierig gewesen, das geheim zu halten, also hat man sich entschlossen, die identitŠten preiszugeben: web web sind: roberto di gioia (piano, synth, percussion), tony lakatos (tenor- und sopranosaxophone), christian von kaphengst (upright bass) und peter gall (drums).

mit electric lines hat joe goddard zum ersten mal ein umfassendes kŸnstlerisches portrŠt all seiner musikalischen vorlieben entworfen von house, techno und disco bis hin zu uk-garage, r&b und electro-pop. ich hatte das gefŸhl, dass ich mich erstmals mit herz und seele einem soloalbum widmen wollte. entstanden ist es aus dem blickwinkel eines londoners, der mit der clubkultur aufgewachsen ist und ein sehr bewegtes musikalisches leben in dieser stadt gefŸhrt hat. wie four tet, caribou oder jamie xx kombiniert joe goddard eine unbŠndige lust am experiment mit einem instinktiven gespŸr fŸr den dancefloor und einer liebe fŸr progressive popmusik abseits des mainstreams. mit electric lines untermauert goddard seinen platz an der vordersten front britischer produzenten. neben sŠngerin jess mills hat sich joe goddard zudem den hot chip-kollegen alexis taylor und daniel wilson als gŠste eingeladen.

the only time you wear a tuxedo is when its time to party. so says legendary west coast player snoop dogg on the opening track of tuxedo ii. the blessing of the doggfather is of special importance to mayer hawthorne and jake one, whose second album as a duo finds them at the forefront of a new wave of gangster boogie one that owes as much to g-funk as p-funk. this is the territory of pre- and post-hydraulic low riders: a mŽlange of cali boom-bap, analog synth bass and elegant disco that resonates truth and authenticity in an era where so many are faking the funk

das dritte und letzte kapitel der woolfy vs projections album-trilogie findet mit stations seinen kršnenden abschluss, der mit den alben the astral projections of starlight aus dem jahr 2008 began und mit the return of love aus 2012 fortgefŸhrt wurde. das konzept der alben-saga der band aus los angeles von simon james und dan hastie basiert lose auf den abenteuern des verschollenen astronauten captain starlight, der held des zazu songs, einem balearic rock klassiker, der auch den sound von woolfy vs projections auszeichnet, mitbeeinflusst hat, ein dŸsterer balearic und cosmic vibe, verbunden mit dem typischen west coast sound, disco dub, funk und hippie rock. stŸcke wie absynth (von resident advisor treffend mit air covering steely dan umschrieben), neeve oder set me loose kšnnen allesamt als moderne klassiker des genres bezeichnet werden.

how much do you really know about nina kraviz? shes a russian techno dj, an accomplished producer, one of dance musicÕs breakthrough names of the last five years. true enough, but theres so much more to her story than that. shes one of electronic musics most interesting characters, someone who has stuck to her musical guns since day one, someone who has wide-ranging roots that run deep in the past, yet shes also the embodiment of the future. her signature sound is a raw blend of house and techno with a very acidic feel. if that feels very now, kraviz has a lot to do with it, which is why she was asked to mix the latest instalment of !k7Õs landmark Ôdj kicksÕ series.

pinning down sascha dive as cocoons deephouse wunderkind wouldnt really hit the nail on the head however it isnÕt far from truth. compared to most other artists of this genre he can for sure be classified as a young gun but there is no soundproof for his age in his music at all.

walls alessio natalizia and sam willis dont deal in perfect wholes. the kompakt duo return swiftly on the back of 2010 s critically lauded self titled debut, an album that picked up mojos coveted electronic album of the year, featured in nmes end-of-year lists, not to mention winning fans such as of jamie xx, caribou, james holden and impressing us trio battles so much that they have invited the pair on tour around the us this coming october. yet it isnt these admittedly impressive accolades that make the announcement of second lp >coracle< such an anticipated one, what makes walls so alluring is the fully immersive experience of their mellifluous electronica Ð reaching out far and wide to pull influences sonic, emotional and theoretical together into patterns of blissful phantasmagoria. taking their debut as the prototype, willis and natalizia have taken those initial early-sunrise evocations and pushed them to even more grandiose expanse

on his 2011 album field songs, iowa troubadour william elliott whitmore documents a vanishing american landscape with all the heartfelt soul and quiet fury one could hope for. -heartland firebrand blows fuse, fights for truth- heralded spin magazine when describing whitmore, who utilizes a powerful singing voice beyond his years and a stark dramatic sound rooted in bluegrass, blues and folk protest music. these songs vividly evoke a life of struggle, humble resilience and family bond inspired by life on his familys farm along the mississippi river. whitmore has made a name for himself both within the punk movement, where his populism and sincerity resonate with alienated urban kids, and the roots community, where writers like andy downing in the chicago tribune have placed him within the -new pastoralism- of bon iver and the fleet foxes.
