few would challenge the claim that the 1960s and 70s have been the most fertile two decades in the history of popular music ever - a period which, regardless of genre, laid the foundations for everything that has followed. what is more, this period was so fertile that the speed with which tastes changed left a colossal amount of incredible music to gather dust - perhaps most famously a profusion of funk, soul and jazz. it was a musical legacy that lay mouldering until the rise of sampling in late 80s hip-hop precipitated a mad scramble for lost crates and suddenly, the music that became known as rare groove - for obvious reasons (it was rare and very groovy) - experienced a phoenix-like rebirth. a quarter of a century on and a million funk, soul, jazz-funk and rare groove compilations, re-presses and re-releases later, you d think that cupboard was bare and yet, even now, there are gems to be found. pt is re-releasing the rarest of cuts that often were originally only limited runs or private pressings and new compilation down & wired is just such a collection. always soulful, this features everything from mod groovers and northern stompers, to funky bumps and latin heaters. yet while the quality of all cuts is immediately apparent, only one of the eleven has ever been previously been compiled because when pt do rare, they don t mess around. in fact, if these tracks were steaks - they d still be walking around eating grass.

karen gwyer joins dba for an exercise in futurist dancefloor electronics after a recent outing on alien jams alongside beatrice dillon and last year s barnstorming nous release. the us-born londoner brings the sound of her stomping, analogue live performances closer to the psychedelic, thickly melodic tone of her studio compositions across three tracks, with prophase metaphase anaphase telophase an obvious choice for djs.

the album is inspired by the music of eric dolphy and john coltrane, indian raga and african polyritmic structures and evolves around the story of paddy roy bates, a british major and pirate radio broadcaster, who founded the micro nation principality of sealand two months after the death of coltrane

recovering from the gray decay of the winter here in berlin, we are more than ready to push forward farther into the future. in order to do so the powers at chronicle have aligned a new musical offering to test the palate of those who know, and those who care. we are pleased to present six tracks from the prolific arnaud le texier, who has made waves for years with his children of tomorrow imprint and renowned taste. from cosmic interludes to heavy hitting transcendence, arnaud manages to showcase all sides of his production skills as they translate into a compelling and emotive narrative. among them stands a tribute to one who was lost along the way that we simply do not want to forget. only rarely in this life do we stand witness to gures that make a true impression, an imprint that continues to leave a mark long after the original has passed. max_m was one of these gures, and it is through his music and immensely dignified curatorial prowess that his legacy will live on. arnaud’s poignant tribute stands as a personal note amongst an ep full of forceful techno suitable for deep space exploration

desolat label boss loco dice is back with what is sure to be a massive autumn package: he has remixed the seminal dance track ‘go’ by the legendary moby, twice, and has made it all his own in the process. moby needs little introduction: the american dance producer and live performer’s albums are classics of the genre that are celebrated far and wide. they have been used on thousands of adverts, have given rise to hit singles all over the world and have made him one of the most celebrated electronic music stars of our time. his ‘go’ track was what started it all for him back in the 90’s, and was a bona fide club classic of the day. it still resonates today and always gets crowds going. now it has been remixed twice by loco dice, who has added his own stamp to it in distinctive fashion. his first excellent version is eight minutes of chunky and tribal drums, with rubber kicks, clipped horn stabs and big hits all building the pressure. those most famous vocal cries really finish it off in style, and ensure that dance floors will go wild whenever it is dropped, as do wonky synths and big piano chords at the breakdown. the second version is more emotive, with big sweeping strings smeared in the background to help make it all the more dramatic, teary eyed and impactful on the floor. this one is for the peak time in any set and is sure to make the most memorable moment of any night. both remixes here pack a real punch, and whilst remaining true to the original, they both sound just like you would expect from modern dance heavyweight loco dice.

fuckthegovernment.ltd, a.k.a. f.t.g (alfredo trastulli) and music box head honcho, marco riff, return to the skylax fold in 2016 with a cache of house nuggets for our listening pleasure. their last venture on skylax saw f.t.g collaborate with a bunch of his friends, resulting in some of the best tracks we’d heard all year, including the unforgettable fuckthegovernment theme. their tracks have been celebrated and hailed by some of the best djs in the game, names such as derrick may, ricardo villalobos, raresh, and dj harvey. the bar set by the first record remains sky high, and somehow, these two manage to raise the bar even higher. it may be the biggest cliche going when talking about an album, but the duo certainly do take us on a journey, through the past and present of house music. it’s a record not too dissimilar in tone to paranoid london’s from a few years back, but f.t.g and marco strip things back even further than those guys did, in our opinion, the sound is more raw with less frills, and no track names to predispose feelings in the listener either. this eight track project is cohesive and elaborate, with movements through sounds both acid and jazzy, minimal and maximal. it explores sounds that came to prominence in famous house locales such as detroit and chicago over in the u.s., but the underground european influence is definitely present, from paris to berlin, and of course f.t.g and marco’s home of italy. with this album, these guys add to the underground sound that has cultivated in the city of perugia for years now, a place that has seen the likes of simoncino and nicholas hone their craft.don’t miss out on a piece of skylax history

a negative hallucination is an idea that was first put forward by sigmund freud in 1890. he used the term to describe how a hypnotised person could be led to be unable to see a person or thing that was right in front of them once out of the hypnotised state, creating a gap in their reality. sadly, this gap in reality seems endemic in the minds of many in the world, whether from lack of access to facts or from wilful ignorance. the result is the same regardless: a world where many oppressed peoples reality is edited out of the conversation. noleian reusse (half of africans with mainframes) and thomas cox (one third of pittsburgh track authority) got together in the studio in pittsburgh during a week of extreme social unrest in the usa in late 2015, resulting in these recordings. the tracks are crafted with a stripped back electronic funk and a stark, relentless feel that reflects the energy in the air at the time. as long time fans of politically and socially charged music like public enemy, underground resistance, nwa, dopplereffekt, and gil scott-heron, noleian and thomas have taken these influences and mixed them with their own styles to come up with a modern dancefloor version of those ideals. lead track solidarity fills the whole a side with its optimism. soulful melodies and strings conquer the driving rhythms, bringing a sense that through sticking together, a better future is possible. the b side s perspective is darker. police state is a crazy raved out banger that combines gritty acid and harsh tones that channel the day-to-day existence for far too many urban people. the third and final cut, surveillance, is a paranoid, spacey techno track that would be ideal as a soundtrack for closed-circuit television video reels. this snapshot of urban life is tied together through artwork by andrew burger, whose mix of throwback style and current ideas nails the dystopian existence that is now reality as predicted so long ago by orwell, huxley, lucas, and many more.

berlin-based obstacle records returns for its second release with another ep that draws on uk garage heritage while offering its own fresh take via a trio of newer names to watch out for.the ep’s original track comes from lesus - a hitherto unknown name that splices its stripped down ghost-esque rhythmic backbone with an uneasy chiming melody. the a2’s remix from obi - another name to keep track of - retains the pace & 2step stylings of the original while combining it with a chicago house sensibility.on the b side we find two alternate versions from the mysterious prince of ethiopia. the 808 version mutates the track into a old school hip hop instrumental, with the aforementioned 808 sounds to the fore, replete with vocal sampels, record scratches and ray guns. the mt40 version takes those elements, loses the snarling bassline, and pins it all to a broken beat rhythm, once again underlining obstacle’s reverence for uk dance music culture & its desire to push it into surprising new territory.

ibifornia, the new album of cassius, will be released the 26th august. once again, the french duet composed of zdar & boombass has managed to gather the creme de la creme on its project. ibi for ibiza and fornia for california, or the perfect cocktail between the fervor of the spanish islands dancefloors and the incredible freshness of the californian mentality. pharell williams is present on the album, as well as a totally transformed cat power. the great mike d (beastie boys), and the over-playful guitarist matthieu chedid, are also some of the prestigious names we can mention. the singles ibifornia, go up, action and “the missing are already available as well as the ep of remixes action, that have given us many good reasons to wait for the upcoming opus. once youll have had the time to adopt those songs as your new summer anthems, cassius will give you a taste of what your indian summer can sound like

following his release on stockholm s bossmusik, kalawila s third release really makes mountains go boom! the strength in the second release on mountain explosion device is undoubtedly kalawila’s sense of rhythm, straight to the point, no bs grooves, that swarm to form total dj tools, plus a subtle atmosphere that will move this record from the shelves into the booths. clocked into a near 13 minutes journey, this monster a-side of a track feels like a celebration of everything that makes us gather during those late hours. paired with a sonic wall that resembles mid 90’s lust for experimentation, which marks the entire a side of kalawila’s second release on his label. on the flip you’ll find even further explorations into the same territory. rest assured that virunga’s less organic but more metallic approach will find a place in the hands of more daring dj’s and listeners. the final track is a remix from jana sleep: a long lost tale of hibernation that keeps most hypnotists on the edge for more. this is only the beginning!

when pig&dan decided to join forces, they began a truly prolific production schedule establishing their reputation as producers of pulsating electronic music that straddled dark house and high-energy techno, whilst creating their signature style of twisted and experimental breakdowns. since those early days, they have created a repertoire that not many can match and have constantly been releasing their music on the most respected labels and playing at the best events worldwide. pig & dan make their entrance to drumcode with a full force, four track ep. the mexico ep encapsulates pig & dan s well known signature sound with each of the four tracks bringing their own identity to the release. the tracks, laced with driving kick drums, modulated samples and thumping bass lines, come together to create a heavy yet dynamic ep that prove pig&dan are masters of their craft.

nice price deal !!! shaded records present the first chapter of a melancholy tale, together with artwork from the beautiful city of saint petersburg. apocalyptic techno brings us closer to a precipice - in the forms of a collective march. everybody has been aware of that movement towards an abyss, but shaded records whisper insistently that we have to move further - towards the drop. we simply must dance.listen to events in the background: wars are ongoing, gods fall from the sky, and markets collapse. nonetheless, the march goes on. this is techno from a frozen megapolis for those who are willing to surrender all hope - but will never do so.

the house crime label debuts with this pearl of an ep by the new and exciting talents of steven bc and vrrs. the duo come through dangerously correct with their first release, and -functionz- is an instant hit, one of those tunes that has managed to find the perfect balance between drums and bass, melodies and vocals - a true old-school a-side for the heads. on the flip, -utukmylife (on the dancefloor)- is more speed garage than house, and the two producers pack another mean punch with this total banger, -house will remember-, on the other hand, is a real piece of chicago magic, a classic us house anthem with a rolling pile of drums, a huge swarm of bass and the right level of tape distortion. excellent

appleblim’s third 12&#8243,,, for tempa touches on the sonic territories explored on his first 12&#8243,,, (the experimental and amorphus ‘wandered’ from tempa101) while expanding on those ideas. the first track ‘minus degree’ is appleblim at his most experimental. a beatless affair of sparse soundscapes and atmospheres. full of tension, and crucially no release, you are swept away by the waves of synths and sub bass. next track ‘move them’ is more traditional appleblim - 4x4 and dub techno chords build a sense of momentum over the space of 7 minutes. a traditionally leaning techno tune with a uk twist, appleblim’s use of space and tension will keep any raver entranced. final track ‘twist it down’ rounds out the ep with a subtle roller. broken drum patterns and bright synths help in stripping away some of the darker undertones prevalent in the previous tracks.

ancient methods & cindytalk, pay homage to the white rose figurehead, sophie scholl - remembered for her role in the passive resistance to the nazis during wwii - with a passionate and unflinching trio of noise/techno girders for diagonal. for those aware of cindytalk’s illustrious industrial heritage - she has collaborated with everyone from cocteau twins and this mortal coil to revolting cocks’ chris connolly and dj scud, this is nothing short of a momentous meeting of epochs, styles and mutual intent. and it’s f**king deadly wi’ it, too.

a fresh relic was unearthed in the distant east and the retreating ice sheets of siberia - the ancient bones of a forgotten race, once again touched by sunlight and air, stirring the caged memories within. tendrils of this prehistoric demon’s soul wrapped themselves around those who made the discovery - entrancing, captivating and compelling them with its dark story from the deep past. it is a tale that runs eternal, an account of the deepest savagery of nature - a conflict that has spilled across every conscious being and drives the endless cycle of life.

one of the most accomplished and celebrated bands in the field of contemporary, unclassified pop music. almamegretta are masters in combining a wide range of elements such as dub, funk, reggae, world and electronica, all filtered through their own deep southern italian roots. the band from naples is now back with a new album, mixed by the dub master adrian sherwood, who had already been involved in their mid-nineties masterpiece “sanacore”. this new work consists of ten tracks, nine originals plus a well chosen cover of an old neapolitan hit by nino d’angelo transformed into a lovers rock style song. almamegretta’s original line up of gennaro t tesone, paolo polcari and raiz is augmented by a great list of collaborators and the result is a strong and multi layered set made of afro-funk numbers, reggae ballads, and other riddims, while the british dub influence remains central within the group’s wide sound palette. the title “ennenne”, which means no name, is inspired by the acronym used for those who are born from unknown parents. the right title for such a highly dense picture based on the combination of contemporary sounds and social topics.

summer deal! these two titles in the label’s catalogue carefully thread different periods in mosso’s evolution, showing the continuity of that personal sound defined by precise crafted percussions and playful melodies, appealing to the mind, body and soul. ! kander on the a side immediately sets the club pace with a rolling rhythm that serves as foundation for that classic mosso combination of riffs and counterpoints that build tension thru the song bringing it to an emotional peak before quickly stripping down back to the basics. the beat gently goes on, asking for the next ride of excitement. ! tikjda on the b side shows a similar beat, but we soon discover a completely different mood and tone. the percussions go darker, the meandering melodies become unstable and the timbres get nostalgic. a complex balance of north african drums, orchestra winds and drifting synths, build a song that proves as challenging to access as rewarding for those who give in and immerse themselves.

so wow... jiraffe - out’a the box. well what can i say, when i first heard this record i just melted... on the first few bars and the tempo already was a fav, my ears pricked up and then woahhhhhh... that bass came in and oh god how that went through my whole body and shook me like a thunderstorm... those synths and percussion just left me floored... probably one of the most cherished re-issues that you will buy... don’t know about out’a the box... if you don t already own it, you will and it will be in the box for a lifetime.

you are. listener’s perception placed to the center. the idea is to go to the extremes with the singularity of the listening conditions, by treasuring those slight but essential diversities through which the music is spread in that moment. every context is different. unique and difficult to repeat. as a consequence the same music piece sounds differently, as determined by the distinctive playback’s circumstances. the listener is valued as the beneficiary of that exclusive moment, while who produces for you are are individuals who will remain undisclosed, their back-ground covert, any possible outside influence unrevealed. nothing has to interfere with the construction of a personalized and unique enjoyment of music.
