whoever is behind the ac exp project has clearly worked very hard to ensure their identity remains under wraps, with zilch info out there on the big old internet. which is a shame because theres a degree of class to the two untitled productions on this 10- that demands some recognition. both are unassuming club tools that any deep house selector will appreciate a few hours into their set, all swirling, dubby atmospherics, tunnelling rhythms and snapping percussion.

hailing from bari, nico lahs has become a beloved member of the stock5 family. on the latest instalment of the label that guy blesses us with his runway ep. but don’t mix up the title with some anorexic chicks that stumble along the catwalk heidi klum sent ‘em on. if there is one direction, it would lead straight into a planetary orbit. the opener “shreder” sets the pace and mood, a decent composition of pulsating synths, a vibrating bass line and a whispering voice, telling us to fasten our seatbelt because our next stop is going to be “orion”. actually this is in one of the biggest astral objects having been discovered yet. nico takes us there on his spaced out trip, while we are watching stars being born and dying in super novas. on the flip we’re finally approaching “runway” the title track. dive into a world that is undiscovered, promising and overwhelming. all in all this ep is way more than “mystic”, which is the last track. we left our planet as humans and we landed as androids in stock5 galaxy, which is ever expanding, crossing boundaries and creating new life on the universal dance floor.

damn, time is running by. after releasing mono negros 3rd strike ep in february, label head ante perry is musically responsible for the 3rd be an ape release. 1980 was a great year for him, because he was born in it. born in 1980 its a hommage to a decade, which influenced him a lot

when you dream where does the light come from? there is a light that has clarity as great or greater than the daylight vision, and a lucidity of color that s beyond how we see color now ... i m interested in the point where this meets the imaginative vision that comes from seeing what we want to think of physical reality as outside, because it has a lot to do all which how we create reality. - james turell
within the walls, lighting(s), james turrell built spaces of solid material. the aim is not to also penetrate the foundations, passing through space, leading us to consider the immaterial, the mind. divergent ways first four compositions much like the four first light compositions, have sought to externalise the imaginative vision making it apparent.

telrae tracks is a sub label of telrae. the first record comes by van bonn who has recorded two tracks.
the a-side *on land* has the continuous mode character of early monolake music and conveys a powerful and intense feeling coming in waves.
*wave* on the flip side is a ghost track without any redundant sounds. no stunts just sounds that unite at certain outskirts to create a slight psychedelic experience. when the track stops you fall deep, because it is also a soundtrack.

you have to repeat the truth always, even because of the error around, it is preached, not by individuals but by the masses. so the madness is invisible when it adopted sufficiently large proportions. in this case we are connected: i am you and you are me! would i lie to you? who does not know the truth is a fool. but who knows it and calls it a lie, is a criminal. but one day you will have to admit officially that what we baptized truth, have an even greater illusion than the world of dreams. do you want to be a part of the silly people. available as limited edition red vinyl.

paxton fettel drops the follow up to not bad for a tenner e.p – and it is tidy like your nans lounge. *jets* gets set to disembark on a paxton trip to a hidden place, and because it rhymes it obviously takes you to space. a secret spot that you only get to see once in a while when the tide is right.. dominating drums demand moves: bust a simple sinking throb, creating a cosmic divulge.

celebrating the 20th edition of house masters with a stunning new collection from one of electronic musics most revered pioneers.

>hi-tide lo-fi< can be read like a sonic map. but instead of a static picture its a growing and evolving concept of explored and lived in space. every space creates its own sound. not only because of the physical premises of a place do we experience sounds differently but also because of our perception and construction of space. and as each sound does have an individual meaning to us so does each space. our identity is directly linked to our access to sound and space. benjamin brunn is questioning these access possibilities and offers us a soundscape of fluxing indentity. within a timeless sound lies the opportunity of liberated being.

tis the season to remain anonymous it seems. the guessing games continue here with the unknown prankster. we cant tell you who it is, because that would render the artists chosen title useless. and he might be slightly miffed at. if it is even a he ... what you do need to know is that these two tight little magic numbers should not be missed! we will leave you with the clips so you can make your own mind up ... needless to say, you might recognise one or two things here.

in the long line of belgian talent finding a home on wph (think san soda, lemakuhlar, metrobox, locked groove, …) we are pretty sure that kiani & his legion (aka thomas neyens) will claim his rightful place within a couple releases. because just like the other family members kiani has his very own distinct sound. totally kiani and also totally wph. kiani & his legion should have already caught your attention with his free *records & culture* vinyl in wphs v.i.p. series and he was also responsible for *legions of the east* on the recent wph summer special 2013. being a vinyl lover himself it seemed fitting that we release his full e.p. debut on vinyl only (grey coloured & marbled), containing four tracks that will show you the full spectrum of his house music universe. the key words in that universe are melody, breakdowns, surprise and emotion. it is pointless to describe the tracks one by one, simply listen, enjoy and most of all…dance!

hot on the heels of their recently released label compilation we make colourful music because we dance in the dark, and an ep from new talent tcts, london via berlin collective greco-roman get set to release *our town* by letthemusicplay featuring kate tempest. starting out as a teen rapper in lewisham and now hailed by the guardian as one of the brightest british talents around, 27 yearold south london spoken word phenomenon kate tempest has been causing a stir at poetry slams and performances up and down the uk, from glastonbury festival to the edinburgh fringe. this year saw her self-penned performance piece brand new ancients claim the ted hughes award for innovation in poetry – making her the first person under 40 to do so – and shortly after her victory she was one of eight poets commissioned to perform at the hayward gallerys light show in london.

pick a piper was conceived in 2008 along with band mates angus fraser and dan roberts, and following two eps, the band is set to release their debut self-titled debut album. the album is made up of eight very different songs, all with one thing in common: each is built upon the foundation of its own ingenious rhythm structure, with musical layers meticulously applied, up until the vocals, which are added right at the very end, if at all. song writing done back-to-front, which is also fitting in this case because: brad weber? isnt that...? yes indeed! brad is also the drummer for caribou.
the vinyl lp comes with free download code.

wph 019 brings us art of tones with lauer remixes. art of tones is of course the much-praised aka of llorca, has long since moved on from his f-communications days and is without a doubt one of the finest and most accomplished house music producers of our time. but we digress, because isnt this all about the music?

messalina records return with a fantastic ep of eclectic dancefloor bubblers from fellow we love space residents jamie fatneck low and lucci capri (aka dj callum). first up is the eagerly awaited vinyl release of fatnecks incredible acid rework of michael jacksons classic billie jean, highly in-demand since receiving heavy rotation from greg wilson (the only dj lucky enough to have a copy) who nicely sums the track up...i love the way fatneck has put a somewhat psychotic twist on billie jean via his acid interpretation - inspired west yorkshire wacko madness! next up lucci capri delivers the quirky balearic chugger dame un beso, with super-sweet latino lyrics and a great reggae-influenced swing. flip over for the beautifully understated because today i saw u which melds a cool deep house groove with esther phillips yearning vocals. rounding off the ep in style is fatnecks superb dancefloor-friendly edit of the aretha franklin version what a fool believes. great stuff - welcome back messalina!

>simple setup< in fact, this fine tune could have the capability of becoming a true >summer hit< – unfortunately we will release it not until september 2013. but maybe you like its loose and uplifting atmosphere anyway. christopher rau must have produced this good-humoured work with a big smile in his face. >save the energy< attentive boys and girls surely realize that we made a misspelling on the label! so what! more unlucky would be if we release a bad track. but christopher turns out in an experienced way what he knows best: relaxed deep house with a melancholic touch.>athens< what a rumbling tune! one definitively should play >athens< on a good sound system to enjoy its profound sub bass. and dear djs, please dont underrate it just because we placed it on position b2. played at the right time this track can work on the floor as well as the other ones.

triple p: pimprinella proudly presents! we are happy to show you our 2nd split release! this time we picked up sasch from steyoyoke recordings and our residents freiboitar with an amazing vocal track on b1. pimprinella008 is the first release without a remix, because we think that these 4 weapons are strong enough! do you think so too?

ridley road market, dalston, london. august 2013 before the outbreak, the market was full of exotic food, clothes and spices. now all thats left is a sea of mindless undead beings roaming the streets, a non stop 808 low­end rumble and the stench of chicken bones. all this because of a record. it looked different. it sounded different and the results of playing it were catastrophic. as soon as dawn day nights 2012 debut ep was played, a ritual began . . . unbeknown to music lovers all over the world, they had given dawn day night the power to walk the earth once again. that power now grows stronger and he is almost ready to re­animate 4 undead booty shakers: the re­animations ep. with his undead army growing and a diary full of festival shows this summer, ask yourself, are you prepared for survival

meditative, absorbing dance music in true moritz style — at times seemingly transfixed by its own elements, and minimal almost to vanishing-point, but quickly back ticking, kicking and amassing, with the lethal dubwise density of the classic berlin sound. twelve minutes long, trenchant and forbidding but sharply alive, the dub itself is a kind of deep fort-da gambit which scoops your brain out for a quick sluice, before replacing it slightly skewiff. dont drop your guard because of the tresor.

balkan tribe, the two traveller sounds thorugh the angle of an unknown tchek artists wishing to keep his music anonymous. underground cirkus sound! hide your chickens away... because we might be intown some day!

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.

huxley and jimmy posters introduce baslow on their saints & sonnets imprint with one two many threes - an ep of punchy, melodic house that has the stamp of approval from tensnake, no artificial colours and more.
intended as an ode to 123bpm simply because thats where its at, baslows one two many threes is another winner for the increasingly essential saints & sonnets.

little is known about mysterious producer tommy rawson. our first acquaintance was the aptly named shy track on red rackems smugglers inn 001 release. we tried to find out more but the trail got cold pretty quick. it was not until hearing gilles peterson playing a version of hugh masekelas dont go lose it baby on his show that word got around, tommy rawson was back. this particular anthemic track found its way to mats who then started playing it out and every time, in every club no matter where in the world the reaction was same, people completely lost it on the dance floor! we had but no choice to release the track and luckily enought tommy must have a sixth sense because at the same time mats blasted the track at the local talk office to convince tooli shouting: this is the next big release for local talk, i m telling you! another track made it into his mailbox, the soulful house jam brenda done died with no name. both tracks ended up on this 12 inch of course. mr rawson has delivered the goods here, warm, sunsplashed music all the way. a name to watch for this year and probably not mysterious for long.

deluxe book-style package, includes artist notes, complete musical scores and photographs - 2x12 lp + cd.
in 20 years of kompakt no one ever got bored: the cologne-based label always knew how to maintain its geographic and stylistic positioning on the fence. we owe that to all those great – and also wildly different – artists who have found their way to us in two exciting, sometimes exhausting, always inspiring decades. from the borderlands between faux pop and cheerful science also comes colognes multi-instrumentalist gregor schwellenbach, who separated 20 label classics from their dance roots and re-recorded them as chamber music.

the legendary 1969 beatles album - remastered from the original stereo analogue master tapes, pressed on heavyweight 180 gram vinyl.

this ep is somehow special for us because we’,ve been wanting the original track for 4 years…,. back then, this very track called ‘,san pellegrino’, by rj valeo aka isomer transition grabbed our attention. our first offer to release rj’,s music was declined because he had different plans for it at this time. but our enthusiasm never really faded out, and nearly 3 years later we simply asked him again. this time is visibly worked. the b side has been confided to british producer och, undoubtedly on fire at the moment with his excellent publications on trelik, pal sl, his own autoreply or more recently on all inn records. he delivered a powerful floor remix, designed for nocturnal peak times –, as the name ‘,och’,s 4am mix’, suggests.
already supported by brendon moeller, guy andrews, ben sims, sebo k, troy pierce, samuel l session, gary beck, konrad black, reboot, tiefschwarz, adam beyer…,

profound techno with soul is what the heart of tim xavier is beating for. tim is not only our first choice when it comes to mastering with his company manmade mastering, but also because his second single on upon you records has hit the bulls eye.

the two brothers of gebrÜder teichmann have been regular guests at the early killekill events. that is because they have a very similar approach to electronic music as we do. first of all they are deeply in love with the music itself and not the fame, the money or whatever one might expect to get when making music, and second they have a wide musical horizon and interesting perspectives on it, because they are active on several levels, as djs, musicians, promoters etc. first of all though they got class and taste, and so we are happy to present their cooperation with one of our personla heroes and one of the very big names in early house music: johnny dangerous aka foremost poets.

another artist from berlin, who cares? we do! simply because this talent need some more exposure and not because of this hometown. his sound differs from the so called berlin sound, fresh and kicking classic techno with two amazing originals called aweheh and that s it . exactly! and as we love talents we invited to have french uprising technoyoungsters m.a.d.a. & plankton on board to deliver a slightly darker approach on aweheh to make it fit also on the dark chambers of berlin techno clubs.

what if time does not matter? welcome to the world of jonas saalbach, where nothing is solid but the rhythm of the base. we are drifting between synthwaves and nested melancholic melodies, between hazy vibes and spare used dark vocals and we call it >nika yumi<. this one is a brilliant number from a producer-youngstar, which strandet in berlin with a big smile and many dreams in the backage. so here we go with his first release on einmusika recordings. >next< - the second track on the ep, is an exotic odyssey in times of vocal- and deephouse, because this number is technoid, minimal and unimagined. >cave< can flip a good party into a great one in the space of six glorious minutes. the bendy baseline is catching everybody and the track is full of cosmic synths. and after this trip you surely need a bottle of water and a melody which picks up this feeling underlined with dreamy synth motifs and a kind of woozy bleeps. okay. so where we are? what time it is? whatever you can repeat everything.

the secret of luck lays not in property, but in giving. therefore klangkuenstler and shemian are releasing their first ep on kallias which is at the same time the first in 2013. the >gluecks ep< spreads this feeling through a successful conception of ist four tracks. the jointly produced >spiel mir das lied vom glueck< initiates this in a wonderful way. through playful chimes and mellow organ sounds paired with melancholic strings it let sunny feelings come up even in cold winter days. the remix of geschwister schuhmann is an outstanding and yet completely different interpretation, with its dreamy vocals, nestled in a warm and spherical soundshell created by the interplay of gentle organ sounds with synths, strings and mallet percussions. with >einhornallee< the b-side starts with a driving pumping groove and a hard syntheziser line dissolved by gentle chimes. >welttraum< fascinates because of an dramatic arrangement supported by extremely tense strings and fullfills it with a catchy xylophon melody.
