due to its black color, the raven was often a harbinger of death in western culture, brought to you in conjunction with dark deeds. but according to native american medicine teachings, light comes out of darkness and the color black is associated with the source of all energy, creating new realities - with the raven as its messenger. silky raven, namely jakob seidensticker and henrik raabe, have dedicated their work to this process with projects like the havana boys, seidensticker/salour and wareika. on the remix duties we first have october, who delivers an homage to the lfo-influenced sound of the 90ies, raw and pure. and second we have a remix by visionquests shaun reeves and jay haze, who join forces to create a dubtechno- influenced pearl, perfectly rounding up the package.

been a long time since we ve heard anything out of miami like this! producer greg beato follows up his blazing ep for funkineven s apron records with another killer three tracker....serious shit, 100% tip!beato somehow just knows how to get it right combining all the crucial electronic elements, creating three absolutely monsterous tracks that will crush the dancefloor. sure it s been said before, but the music does the talking and this ep is a pure unharnessed example of such. guaranteed to be in every djs bag this summer. further proof it s game over for weak watered down dance music.

spooky acid house madness, flipside (friday night) with deep / chicago flavours

midnight moves. thats what comes to mind when you listen to cale parks s n1, preferably at an hour long after dusk has settled around you in some beautiful, insomniac city. parks finds – or more aptly, seeks – beauty and grace in ambience and shadows. n1 starts as pure atmosphere – it feels at first like a sort of lovely sonic nothingness slowly taking form – before growing into the darkly lit, gorgeous moodscape it later becomes. a sensual bassline, a pulsing downbeat, a cinematic piano, strains of italo disco, and the sensation of breezing down a lightless road. if you could make sensuous shapes of the night – imagine kneading the dark itself – it might, at the very best, feel like this. the task of remixing parks s original is taken up by french duo paradis, who can otherwise be heard making music on tim sweeney s beats in space label. the paris-based producers shine a brightening light on parks s dusky creation, quickening its pulse and trading in its darkwave undercurrents for enlivening techno and house. theres an element of floating here – a dreaminess in the rhythms, an astral aspect to the keys beaming through the beats. and with the addition of vocals, sung in french – a pop finishing touch on a song that already feels like an earworm – the transformation is complete. this excellent introduction to cale parkss music is also his debut release on the hakt label.

following the success of the consumer ep by fellow label owner james johnston comes the praise ep by alex agore, and its a true return to form for him on no matter what. the record opens with the title track >praise< - an inspired tribute to gospel music, keeping all the soul but reimagining it into something more infectious. uplifting keys combine with vocals that will have you trying your best to sing-a-long, over a bass groove that holds it all together. >falling< is a slower affair, with its dream-like chords, airy synthwork, cowbell hits and seamless hats. a perfect track to start a night or to end one. the b-side completes the package with two undeniable house jams. you will soon realise how much you like >theres no love< when its skippy vocal is stuck in your head, hours after hearing it for the first time. >i can feel you< closes out the ep on a deeper note which will have you thinking of moments when the sun is about to rise, yet the night is far from over.

landshapes is the sound of four people in a dingy practice room, building on accidents, listening over and reworking obsessively until every band member is satisfied. an unconventional and serendipitous a process it might be, but it is crucial to landshapes overall sound.

moderat sind apparat (sascha ring) und modeselektor (gernot bronsert und sebastian szary). hier der bedächtige klangtüftler und pop-poet, dort die beiden techno-b-boys. beide acts stehen für die berliner elektronikszene jenseits der geraden bassdrum. modeselektor sind die großmeister der unterirdischen bässe und elektrisierenden breakbeats, apparat ist der feingeist der elektronischen popmusik. die verweigerung, sich mit dem vorhandenen abzufinden, schweißt die drei in einer künstlerfreundschaft zusammen. auf dem ersten album definierten sie 2008 den moderat-sound. wobbelnde bässe und zuckende beats auf der einen seite, apparats filigrane stimme auf der anderen: gerade der extreme kontrast erschuf das einzigartige moderat-gefühl. in den nächsten jahren wurden beide acts zu international bekannten künstlern. sie definierten mit bahnbrechenden alben den elektronischen sound der zeit. heute ist das spektrum emotional und stilistisch größer geworden. es gibt keine grundstimmung mehr. in elf tracks erzählen moderat ein facettenreiches und doch kompaktes epos. sie sind verführer und hooligans, grübler und partysäue. in ihrer welt sind partytaumel und tiefsinn kein gegensatz. sie lassen kein kapitel ihres elektronischen und ihres analogen lebens aus. im clash zeigen diese großen musikerpersönlichkeiten neue charakterliche facetten. so ist in dieser wiederbegegnung eines der großen alben der elektronischen popmusik entstanden.

sam walton is a 22 year old producer from manchester who came to hyperdub after feeding them demo tracks, and started off in 2011 with the *walton ep*, the first of three eps for the label. since then he has honed and developed his music into *beyond*, finding a really fresh and subtle intersection between music that doesnt seem to naturally fit together, old eski grime, funky and detroit house and techno but with smudged edges and a colourful industrial sound palette that gives a real richness to his productions.

hot on the heels of dj deeps inaugural kern mix for tresor comes *kern vol.2*, selected and mixed by gigolos boss dj hell. the second 12 inch – the rarities – is a precious collection of forgotten early 90s grooves. on the a-side, none other than mr. daniel bell contributes to this special kern vol.2 with a track that has never seen the light of day since its year of production, 1992 – the chicago style version of his legendary blip title. a collectors piece. the b-side starts with nyc 90s lenny dee and ralphie dees (aka major problems) overdose, a 1990 relentless number originally released on nu groove. back to 92 with sub-cultures - dreams released on hayden browns own imprint strobe. all mixes on the original and rare 12 inch are simply excellent, and dj hell chooses here the forgotten tribal life mix.

the vinyl version comes as a gatefold cover. every producers dream is to one day complete and release a full length album. after a string of well received 12inch singles on my own label, emphasis recordings, and most recently, on labels like aesthetic audio, machining dreams, syncrophone, and dolly, i thought now is the time to start realizing that dream of the full length album.

at the edge of failure a door to greater understanding and discovery is sometimes opened. some of mankinds greatest discoveries and experiences took place by sheer coincidence or even by mistake. from the big bang, to penicillin, or the invisible light we call x-rays, chance and human error has played a big part of our history and evolution as a species - can we really afford to be perfect when we owe our mistakes and weaknesses so much?

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.

deep in the caverns underneath shibuya district in tokyo there is one of the most debouched club nights the city has ever scene. this night known only as mass has been a stalwart of techno for over 10 years and is still going strong. the label mass united is the bastard child of the club night and on this release features k.n., cydeboard, dj 2.003 and yoshinori, the crazed cosmonauts that spin the tracks that define the club night. this release is step inside that world with deep and mad styles over club floor beats.

cutters records are pleased to announce the debut vinyl (and vinyl only!) release from their latest signing, the la based artist kauf. since 2011 he has been honing his own dark twist on modern electronic music, with heavy drum production, dense, cinematic synth buildups and high-pitched, echo-laden vocals. his aesthetic lies somewhere in between the worlds of slow house, industrial dance and drony indie pop earning comparisons with the likes of caribou, matthew dear and toro y moi. an internet-only single caught the ears of cut copys frontman dan whitford, who promptly signed him for a forthcoming ep, entitled as much again on cutters records. the first taste of this ep comes in the form of the relocate 12 inch, including remixes by psychemagik, nile delta and moons. kaufs relocate is an dark anthem for the late-night-slow-dance, featuring sparse metallic percussion, chugging synth bass and vocals drowning in a sea of reverb. psychemagik take this vibe and run with it for their 7 minute house tinged rework. cutters own nile delta ups the energy with his signature acid-injection and moons (no recordings) rounds out the release.

phantasy is proud to announce its next release by the legendary in flagranti. revered by many to be amongst the best producers and artists of underground club music, the swiss duos sounds have been staple in the sets of some of the worlds finest djs, from phantasy boss erol alkan to james murphy, tim sweeney, horsemeat disco and many more. their headrush ep features four cuts with only the dancefloor in mind, each track echoing the sexuality, style and darkness of the late night disco.

the flames still burn white hot on friedas musics first record. this seems to be no reason not to throw more explosives on top. with the elephant carousel ep the second label maker don ramon inspires a dance carousel that makes even the most peaceful pachyderms on friedas soil rotate. all four tracks are infectious to body and soul. each for itself an original. all four tracks extensively tested on the party crowd by aunt friedas nephew. rather in a club night or at a funny after hour- hands were in the air and the corner of the mouths were rising high. a very special delight for the friends of the upper class reduction surely is the argenis britos remix of the track wild goats. all in all definitely an ep that streches the trunk in the sky!

lil jabba isnt like the rest of them. while they are busy joining the dots between house and techno or whatever is safe right now, he is throwing paint all over the page. he is not american, but he is affiliated with chicagos teklife crew (dj spinn, dj rashad, etc.) and divides his time between baltimore and brooklyn, exhibiting his visual art, riding around with his bike gang and making some of the most hypnotic juke and footwork you will ever hear. local action have been figuring out a release with him for over a year - eventually an ep wasnt enough, and they persuaded him to make it a full-length album, scales. some of scales has already seen the light of day through youtube or limited cassette releases, some of it is unheard. some tracks sound cleaner than others, that is because they are newer. that is how these things work. what is consistent throughout scales is the quality: across 12 tracks, jabba flips, twists and inverts the footwork template with endless layers of samples, gurgled vocal tags, jazz licks and whatever else he feels like. these arent trax, they are tapestries.

opener getting run down loops up a nagging hip hop sample over skittering dukey beats and washes drifting pads and spacey keys over the top for a hypnotic late night groover. reach out goes at a calmer pace, but revolves around intense builds, insistent polyrhythms and detroity riffs for a bit of hypnagogic drama. on memix duties, om unit does what you hope hes going to do, injecting reach out with seemingly infinite swathes of space and bottom end, looping about at his own pace, but with that constant sense of om unit purpose. nphonix closes out proceedings with a tweaky, rubbery acid style workout that will find friends in bass and house camps.
