killer release on new yorks sequencias label. powerful and hypnotic chicago acid inspired cut on the a and a cool slow building chord driven track layered over raw drum rhythms on the b-side. recommended!! label promo text: sequencias does not stop, does not conform, takes no prisoners. our third release brings you a pair of artists from two different points along interstate 94, who have a reputation for the very same. so lets get to it. the main body laid down by villan x is tight metallic percussion underpinned by solid kicks and a stream of robotic filtered bass, containing unexpected shifts within the frequency register. foreboding tones and feelings drift towards us across which the disembodied voice of kold is able to find a platform from which to shudder into our consciousness and pose questions from across the galaxies about the nature of our very being. dcantu carries on the feelings of space, with protracted white noise shots and stabby modulated organ chords, but doesnt leave it long before setting the pace with solid drums and shifting keyboard funk aimed squarely your body and the dance floor as octave changes force you up and then down again to a backdrop thick with texture. this provides for the body and the mind. act fast though, sequencias does not like to rest.

after his first stomp in 2012 its time for the true first single astral projection out of his upcoming debut album micro mega (out in june)! for the new single strip steve is teaming up with the lucid and wild eyed dream-pop band puro instinct, young protégées of living legend ariel pink, straight outta sunny southern california. unlike his more dancefloor tunes stomp/mother circuit (bnr078), strip steve is taking us here on a trip painting lingering psychedelic-noir disco pop. astral projection goes more to the root and encapsulates musical influences from the beach boys, chic, and modern disco like amplified orchestra, highlighting the fact how versatile and multi faceted strip steves musical approaching can be. its the flirtyness with fragile lucency and the infantile embracement of the simple and still undiscovered popformula which leaves the song grow and breathe on its own. this cocktail is best served by the beauty of your own imagination. so relax & leave your soul wonder, cause astral projection will take you to a new dimension until youll have the pleasure to discover >micro mega< - strip steves debut album.

on le rire ep jared wilson (7777 - skudge / detroit) leads the way with a pest chicago-house inspired rework, devilishly and deliciously analog without whittling down to a mere old-school homage, a sort of us-acid-dubstep version of addison groove, with a taste of slacker jak-beat for the nirvana generation! a melodic decomposer, scottish dam mantle (warp - ghostly international / glasgow) deceitfully feigns to mellow with what could at first glance seem like an edit. however deep excavations into the intense choir of >voyage vers l harmonie< leads to a surreal confrontation between a slum village like beat and a post-industrial version of melody nelson. thundery atmospheres, slippery slopes… the best way to pay tribute to luc marianni. famous for his duo as well as his label syncom data, nukubus (bunker / rotterdam) is nonetheless an inspired soloist, as this breathtaking remix once again proves. the 11 minutes long krautrock tunnel leaves many envious of its authenticity and sheer technical virtuosity. this swirling reinterpretation of mariannis work manages to leave the original behind and come into its own. its out of respect for the original work that nukubus requested to be credited only as a remixer. if youve bothered to read the few lines above, please remember it is both easier and wiser to form your own opinion with the vinyl in your own two hands. please note that the distribution of these eps will be accompanied by some very limited original editions of luc mariannis vinyls

radioblues take me home on fenou no.16 is the sweetest piece of minimalish housy electronica in a long time on this label. as a mere mortal you cannot resist the dreamy voice of sylwia van der wonderland. you just want to fulfil her wish to take her home and get caught up in her world. solely the music itself makes it impossible to leave the dance floor and thats thanks to robert - the rocket scientist - who is the other half of this organic duo. with remixes by umami, arjuna schiks and le prix you can choose from various styles, but when the last beats fade youre almost forced to flip to b side and back to the a and so on and so forth

36 hours in. the lights are flickering and the sweat is pouring out of you like the thoughts that you re trying to write down, to get down the words, to put down the message, to translate all the ideas that keep appearing in your head. ideas like uninvited guests that keep showing up and refusing to leave. somewhere though, there s a truth in there. you know it because you saw it. you know it because you felt it. because when you knew that even though there were ten million reasons why you should go to bed now, why you should go to bed straight away. that you should put these silly things down and stop trying to create and just get some sleep already. that you should stop trying to wrestle the ideas in your subconscious down to the ground so you can actually capture and express them to others. but you persist.

part 3/3! close your eyes and let go. born in hannover daso enchanted us with this track. it is constantly building up until sunrise. this is how we got to know daso when he was playing his first gig at a treibgut getting our guests up and going. in hannover this night is known as the topless-party-animals-night. not many are as familiar with the treibgut sound as mario aureo proving with this tune. a year ago it was all hands up at treibgut but know we set it free to be passionately celebrated at other parties. leave the orchestra in rehearsals – until they have finished we keep on celebrating to the deep bassline for the plane has just landed. moritz approached this tune verytooly. we just remember him setting up stage for the party, ordering pizza and watching football. frieder, our youngest member, never looses the concept of time and spaces but this track has so much atmosphere in it that you can imagine which cloud he is on. the track comes in easy-going leaving you floating to the end

highly anticipated since their first ep, 51 ways to leave your lover, broke its way into the hearts of all who heard it, tristesse contemporaine has perfected this magic by taking it all the way to the parisian and french stages. crystalline arpeggios, dreamy loops and whispered vocals creating a world of destabilizing and refined emotions which carry a thrilling light to the darkened dancefloors. the trio of enigmatic donkey masked singer, maik, leo on guitars and narumi on synthesizers, trusted their minimalist melodies to the expert hands of dj / producer, pilooski. romantic and flamboyant, arrogant and haunting, this first album imagines a world in chiaroscuro, where the electrical illuminations of shoegazing merge with electronic beats, with a heightened new wave sensitivity. climb to the dark side of modern pop as you enter the fractured, hypnotic, dance of tristesse contemporaine.

the reasons of the space probes blackout are still unknown. sharp and synchronised movements revealed mysterious devices and something started to pulse in the cloudy air, followed by upbeat sonic layers. i thought i was listening to a new, indecipherable, form of language. at the same time, without any friction, the nature of the emission changed again into a sort of weaving of sonic textures twisting all around me, fast and shifty. the only evidence of the facts i just reported is what i leave for you to listen to.
