during off map excursions seahawks encounter the woo tribe, legendary creators of celestial tones. via mind-meld the two groups merge and blur to create two eleven minute plus journeys that explore the outer reaches of mystic disco, warped house and psychoactive boogie. drenched in delay and smeared with hazed reflections of a thousand birds lost in a tropical jungle mist, the results leave you fazed, stunned and overflowing with euphoric intent. designed with the most creative dance floors in mind, both journeys are deep, disorientating and empowering. this release is in league with the wonderful emotional rescue label whose recent re-release of woos *whichever way you are going, you are going wrong* album has brought so much joy to the world. swim on forever.

danton eeproms sophomore album *if looks could kill* is set to be released february 3rd, the aftermath of an intense period at the controls of his purpose-built studio. the result is a record which is hybridised at its core, chere pop songs gradually intertwine with dance floor values while sprinkling risqué references in the process. a foretaste? femdom. femdom may have early nineties techno written all over it, but still manages to leave a strong eeprom aftertaste when it is all said and done.

audiolith - musical luckybag with a masterplan. ten years from now, back in 2003 the label started as musical one-man-show without any kind of business plan. a decade has passed since then and audiolith grew into a proper company with two associates, employees, office, online mailorder store and not less than 200 releases under its belt. but still some things never change, especially when it comes to release politics. no matter what ever style comes in whenever the boss likes it there will be a release. no compromise, no fear of failure that is what audiolith is all about and lars lewerenz is, has been and stays the musically approving authority, no matter if we talk electropunk, drum n bass, indie or punkrock, hiphop, trap, deep. emotin-driven house or electropop. his widely varied taste is the reason why audiolith still remains fresh and surprising a musical luckybag, but one with a masterplan. now the year is 2013 and audiolith is still loved by many - and hated by some for giving away golden gifts to fans instead of waiting for presents itself.

it is 2013 and in this release we hear a totally new approach to sampling. a vinyl release of two artists. fitz ambro$e (cape breton island) residing intokyo, & ohbliv of richmond, virginia(usa). fitz ambro$e sound has unique influence from 90s hip hop and 80s soul, he is also affiliated with cosmopolyphonic collective in tokyo. from the record archives of his father, ohbliv developed the charm of sampling. the record is a 14 track collage of beats from two uniquely talented artists who transcend their individual musical roots. as if competeing with each other both leave the remnants of sampling material, and the method in which they cut and chop is truely an interesting work.

the last 12 inch in the invisible sunrise remix series and to say they have saved the best until last would be unfair on all the other amazing remixes but this really is a doozy. quiet village do what they do best - an exceedingly epic 13 minute tropical jungle chugger that transcends time and space to take you on a trip you are never going to forget. without a doubt one of the best things we have heard from qv in quite some time. on the flip the advisory circle provide what is perhaps the most beautiful remix - melodic, inventive and deeply lush. an anthemic come down for those moments when you need a big audio hug. simply gorgeous. lastly seahawks leave us with an unreleased mix of crystal beach which sounds like george benson tripping his nuts off on a beach in hawaii at 5am….languid jazz guitar, slo mo beats, the sound of the waves and some deep electronics ... what more could you want? seahawks at their finest and one more reason this is an essential purchase. swim on forever.

earlier in the year oliver schories invited us on a journey. to leave all our worldly worries far behind, to swoon in the hazy breeze and dabble in fleeting late night romances. to dip toes in shimmering, crystal cool waters and fill trainers up with sand. to be carried off deep into a dreamy imagined summer ... now summer is here and it is time to revive those lushly woven fantasies, and bask in exit anew.

diynamic musics newest release, a full self-titled album by stimming, once again shows why this labels artists are some of the most renowned in the music scene. pacing through the snowy sand white beaches that leave marks behind every step seagulls chirping, and suddenly a steady bass appears as waves crash onto the beach. a dream-like state begins, and as the beat sets in, you are lost in the sounds of stimming. his new album was born in this very state of mind, on the beaches of the baltic sea, during a 5-week retreat from reality in the winter of 2012.

sophistication and elegance have not always been the strobe light honey for die-hard divers into the dance genre, but it has been octo octas strongest suit since his 2011 debut 12 inch on 100% silk, and here again are those initial ideas of identity and hunger for intimacy all leading to an adrift, uneasy feeling, only they have materialized into that instantly recognizable, authentic oo sound.

second of two new bass-infected dub ep s with a hint of techno by the japanese mystica tribe. titletrack stars are mine and his temple immediately set off to deep dub and bass territories in these two typical mystica tribe excursions: grooving, but dark with lots of effects and tribal influences. prayer evolves around a catchy melodica that wont leave your head for days or maybe even weeks and zen stone tops it off perfectly with this gloomy scifi dubtrip.

wild oats is proud to present the kmfh debut album the boat party. after a year of collaborative releases, kyle hall, under the alias kmfh, has produced a debut album, a fusion of original work, sample tracks, and raw edits. the boat party album artwork pokes fun at european summer boat parties and juxtaposes the destitute state of detroit and its recent proneness to discarded luxury in financial crises. mainly, the inability to leave and the sometimes pleasant isolation of a boat party is what the album exudes. the listener has a certain commitment to the material which definitely has its place on the dance floor. you can find tracks that have soulful, funky, and organic feels, while others have a more abstract, mechanical, and robotic sentiments. the boat party was carefully constructed which makes the album a cohesive mix of soulful etherealness and roughly raw sounds, kmfhs cueing into the true aspects of detroit.

the first track is reminiscent of a military drum ritual dating back to the middle ages in which drums were used to create a melody that would call the soldiers on their feet at dawn. the second original track is a destroyer with intermittent drum patters and analogue bass lines that will leave nothing unaltered. conrad van ortons takes us deep into the eery world that lies beneath us. patrick kriegers interpretation is a magical dance floor track with eminent eloquence.

>output< defines analog modular sound designs with hypnotic beat structures. like all productions of lin/log organic electronic music is the main focus. his compositions defy conventional genre barriers and leave room for reflection and interpretation. but lin/log is also a young micro label for modular sound designs.

pulse locker refers to the analog method of synching analog modular instruments and drum machines, a method of working john tejada & josh humphrey have embraced to generate their trademark sounds and grooves. preferring to work away from the computer as much as possible, john and josh have adapted a more old school approach to their work, syncing analog gear together, not from a computer, but the way it was synced back in the day. the results are a tight, organic analog sound showcased particularly by the 2nd track >bifur gates<. with a tr-808 as master clock, syncing the modular system, the sound takes you back to the mid 90s era of techno. real 808 beats, punchy bass and an ever so shifting classic chord line will leave you lingering for the days of old. on the a side, >pulse locker< with its big and warm groove, gets things moving with a blend of house and techno. rounding out the ep, >unanimous arc< showcases the mad acid sounds possible on the sh-101 while modular chords elevate the track to a manic pace. >pulse locker< marks the duos third collaboration on palette recordings.

>a correction< is the new album from fieldhead and continues the dusty, bereft sounds of previous releases – they shook hands for hours (home assembly 2009) and riser (gizeh 2010). 2010 saw paul elam depart the uk for vancouver, canada and there is no doubt that the vast northern candian landscapes have influenced the new fieldhead material. the familiar tape hiss, scratchy, decaying atmospheres remain in place but with a correction elam has managed to sculpt a vaster, more expansive palate of sounds. minimalistic on first listen, a correction is a record which slowly unfurls on multiple listens to reveal subtle melodies and details that dont distract from the overal ambience but in fact set apart fieldheads music from many other, safer artists within the genre.
limited edition 180 gram vinyl, includes code for free mp3 download of the full album.

blank code presents bcr002 - beta ep from the plant worker (also known as a. trebor), released on 12 inch vinyl with custom made silk screened jackets and available with an additional track found exclusively on the digital release. beta 01 represents merciless techno, with a pounding kick and unexpected drops that leave the listener gasping for breath. the luis flores remix introduces a subtle swing, making it more danceable than the original while still retaining the ominous tones imbued in the track by the plant worker. beta 02 stumbles in with anxious acid synths and urgent hi-hat patterns, slowly building to a massive climax. mysterious chimes wandering around the sonic space give a haunting feel to beta 03, the eery conclusion of the vinyl version of the release. the eps digital exclusive, beta 04, returns the listener to the original themes of beta 01 – open, reverberating bass accented by the sounds of echoing metallic decay.
