limited vinyl edition of the black dog s new album on soma quality recordings. each of the 500 copies is hand numbered and screen printed by the artists. 3 x 180g heavyweight vinyl. the black dog are without a doubt one of the hardest working acts in electronic music. no sooner have they released one of 2008s best albums in >radio scarecrow< and the massive 12 inch >detroit vs. sheffield< which featured two remixes from detroit minimal grandmaster robert hood, they now prepare for their next album release. >further vexations< is a real successor to >radio scarecrow<. the thinking behind the predecessor is still very evident with even more bite, but theres something about the new album that lends itself to the dark club atmosphere. perhaps the recent bout of constant gigging has had its effect on the act because this one is going to be tearing up floors around the world on its release. >further vexations< might have taken half the time to create but still manages to maintain the same degree of meticulous detail and attention as its predecessor, and is a complete package of tracks demanding to be listened to from start to finish. >further vexations< looks to rouse the sort of political attitudes that have been sorely missing from electronic music since raves backlash against the criminal justice act in the 90s.

it may have been fate that erphun s very first gig was on halloween, because his music is brooding, pounding, moody and transformative, as if from another realm entirely. his ability to build a mood is mesmerizing and transports the listener to that alternate spiritual level that his moniker infers. having spun around california with residencies for naked, flirt and hotel california and playing at 1015 folsom (san francisco), sevilla (las vegas), broadway (san diego), voodoo lounge (las vegas), risqu (las vegas, new year s eve 2004), and the shelbourne hotel (miami, winter music conference), erphun began to make his mark. erphun s music has been spun in clubs all over the world and is succinctly summed up by steve lawler as a deep, dark and underground unique sound that trademarks his pieces. with early releases on ingrooves, and ascension records followed by releases on viva music oliver klein s mutekki and audio therapy, his name is now instantly recognizable among the tech-house, minimal, techno world of spinning producers who globe trot his compositions to be dropped on every conceivable audience. the reaction of the listener to his slow, driving builds that weave between the almost symphonic-like movements of each of his pieces is always jaw dropping and is usually followed by an exclamatory siiiiiick! . erphun is also a highly sought after re-mixer for artists who want to hear the 4am version of their pieces. the only way to really experience this immense talent is to see him in action. a night of erphun s making heightens the listener s musical aesthetic and aurally illustrates his personal musical vision

dojo is about getting back to the roots of american techno and house, and getting away from the computer. we want to help bring back the spontaneity and freedom of live performance and recordings. we want to celebrate the raw physicality of the music, and the dj who still likes to mix. ross since, 1997, ross has been in the background of the westcoast canadian techno scene, particularly the victoria family that included mathew jonson, cobblestone jazz, the mole, and hrdvsion. in 1998, he released the now out-of-print compilation album ôgarden city dubs, that featured first material by mathew jonson, and cobblestone jazz. he left for california in æ98, but kept his finger on the pulse as the art director for itiswhatitis recordings. while in the bay area, he listened mostly to soul,rap and early american techno music. heavily influenced by his time spent in the u.s., he started to develop a musical aesthetic, which he is now ready to express. young florent florent moved to vancouver from switzerland to attend art school. he began to get into making techno. tapping into his french-martinique roots, florent quickly developed a unique sound, which caught rossÆs ear. a few live jams later, it was clear that they worked well together, so they got a studio space and got to work. one month later, dojo had its first release. florent has only been making music for a year, but his swiss work-ethic is dangerous

after three digital-only releases polytone switches to vinyl and has signed new tracks from andreas heiszenberger for its first 12 inch release. heiszenberger has enjoyed great success last year with his release on brut! and links to the atmosphere and beat structure of his predecessor here. for polytone heiszenberger also relies on cool syncopated grooves and his heavy trademark beats as well as abstract pads which mingle with sweet harmonies and his laconic vocal snippets.the record is crowned with a great remix by popnoname who has just scored a hit with his new album on italic. of course, popnoname leaps at heiszenbergers harmonies, but also comes up with a really big surprise in the middle of the remix! cool, well-rounded record and a strong start of the vinyl business for polytone.

villa nah makes pure electronic pop with plenty of emphasis on catchy melodies and meticulously crafted soundscapes reminiscent of the 1980s. stylewise, villa nah is related to 80s bands like heaven 17 or new order, but that is only the tip of the iceberg. once you ve heard their debut single, you ll know that villa nah is about nothing else but their own style and sound. the single opener ways to be is built around a synth bassline, handclaps and the kind of irresistible melody that you cant shake out of your head once you ve heard it. envelope is a tad more dark with an uplifting synth melody serving as a hook. daytime, in contrast to its title, evokes a strong sense of night time. villa nahs vocalist juho paalosmaa is a very charismatic performer, whose great sense of stage drama brings to mind a young glenn gregory or philip oakey. indeed, villa nah is not merely a production duo but an actual band with a live show that is not to be missed.

luke eargoggle and johan inkinen aka facelessmind return on lunar disko records with more futuristic drexciyan/dopplereffekt style jams! the dynamic swedish duo, who have already appeared on creme organization, breakin records, and strangelife, deliver four ice-cold electro tracks for the freakz only! the title track >glasriket< is a deep and dark workout, with its unique sounds and melodies, bubbly basslines, and a haunting lead synth throughout, all on top of some masterful 808 programming. the second track on the a-side is >my machine< with big influences from dopplereffekt and kraftwerk, phat analogue basslines and beautiful melodies rule this track while a killer vocoder vox highlight the amazing production skills of these swedish electro professors! on the b-side >visions fade away< is simply a stunning piece of electronic music. probably the best faceless mind track to date ... a bomb of a track that will rock down any club! the second track on the b-side >herr furste< treats us to more killer 808 beats, raw analogue basslines, and classic synth melodies in true faceless mind style. an outstanding 4 track ep from the prolific faceless mind - future classics! limited to 500 vinyl copies.

two of th heaviest forces combine! firecracker recordings presents intrusion dubs of possibly the biggest firecracker jam to date. linkwood familys >miles away<! steve hitchell aka intrusion, cv313, soultek and one half of echospace has had a prolific output of material over the last 12 months. from the echospace projects to his killer intrusion coloured vinyl series, culminating in the cd only album. >the seduction of silence< which sold out its full press in just a few hours. collectors have had to be super-fast to snatch copies literally everything touched by this guy, and these dubs are no exception, with only 1000 copies pressed. each white vinyl copy is hand stamped and housed in bespoke, screen printed sleeves. as usual the vinyl is ultra heavy weight. do not sleep on this one

selected advent deal. - this debut release on new imprint numbercult is sure to make waves, pulling no punches with this weighty production. the series hits off with a anonymous artist (which most likely is not making his debut here, judging on the production skills). the a side kicks off landlines, 11 minutes of driving deepness, an overdriven stabbing subbass and solid percussion give the track monstrous bottom end with the hypnotic lead line almost vanishing in the vastness. this could be descriped as a kind of mid 90s techno... the rawer side of basic channel or fcom. an absolute sexy monster track that keeps pushing forward and remains its funky almost dubby drive. strong! from the b side clonic is a driving mills esque x 103 ish assault, layering discordant acid lines to produce an intense and relentless track, broken only once with soaring beautiful strings. a side is essential! the b side only for the headstrong. a great start for this new label from glasgow releasing limited releases of high calibre deep techno from a dynamic collective of producers. a label grounded on the basics of techno with an open mind to the future. and what a great start. check!!!

the word legend gets used way too much these days but its only fitting that we use it for this killer combo of louie vega & dj pierre. it started with the godfather of acid house dj pierre sending over the beat to louie vega the master, and boy did he get to work! the end result is >da jungle< louie vega vs. remixes come from chicago legend gene farris, berlins pierre deutschmann a producer with an attitude making music in different styles he fits the afro acid mold perfectly

san soda only needed one very limited ep and one >full< release to get attention from all over the place. deep house music that is both rooted in the past and firmly aimed towards the future. for this fourth release on we play house recordings san gives us three more killer tracks from his vaults. the a-side brings us >doorsnee<, a track that already had people requesting a release when it was but in its infant days on his myspace. describing it is quite the task, because it kinda leaves the 4/4 path and still stays on it, it kinda floats but it still gets you screaming on the dance floor.

royal bangs are from knoxville. that in itself is a statement: theres not much that comes from knoxville, tennessees third largest city, and even less that gets away. quentin tarantino made it out, but the last citys mayor was allegedly so desperate to escape he now works as the us ambassador in poland. cormac mccarthy moved there as a child, of course, but by the time he d written his second book he was long gone. only johnny knoxville advertises his geographical roots, and quite clearly hes a glutton for punishment. so while just one of royal bangs currently has a passport, that doesnt mean they dont know that royal bangs is their ticket out of town.

for this 4th release, we bring you the best of the best & obviously the rarest 12 inches around! a side comes up with the great zig zag from dj chaka bud originally released in 1993 and for the first time available the legendary unreleased extended sax mix (more than 10min of pure house meets jazz madness), this track was done way before st germain & all the jazzy house thang, with today minimal producers like sis or others trying to get the win formula for an ibiza anthem by just sampling a sax, this is defintely the only one you really need to have. if you need a record to bang a party, this is the right one. a cornerstone for todays timeless djs, such as luciano or villalobos. on b1 & b2, we have the all time classic from phuture we are phuture & slam!, all about drums, acid & insane vocals from 1988!

john talabot is a youngster from barcelona with a rather special way of approaching music. borrowing his schools name for his alias and the most diverse samples for his music, he produces expansive and iconoclastic housey tracks. his influences range from flamenco to northern soul, from african music to traditional asian songs and he s inspiration sources go from the profound and sensual house of moodyman and labels such as sound signature or kdj to disco music, chicago house, pop or techno, whatever he likes. sounds like a bass kick and a sampler, he says us in his myspace, no less. this young producer and tireless musical tracker has the ability not just to find the appropriate samples but also to conjugate them wisely. in a great exercise of sonic inventiveness, guitars, strings and keyboards are combined in his tracks with rhythms and vocals with african reminiscences, to give us his own vision of house music, original and personal, but yet very effective. cliche allergic, songs like naomi, korlee or afrika sound cosmic and tremendously emotional without losing sight of the dance floor (thats what we call fat beats). his tracks are organic, human, full of life, the kind of music that keeps not only your foot moving but also your heart tingling.

the second instalment of the aprÚs vinyl series sees australian producer touch sensitive (also a member of van she) kicking things off with >body stop<, an italo disco stomper thats been at home in the fc catalogue for quite some time. recently unearthed by london based producer toby tobias in a chart of >hidden gems< it seemed only natural to ask toby to remix body stop and the result sees toby putting more space in the track, pushing it further onto the dancefloor and keeping it playful all at once. on the flip we take the uk connection a little further with leeds based producer bonar bradberry floating into cosmic territory with >fought & won< whilst toby tobias turns in some glorious tour-bus-disco on >azul blue<, guitars and acid lines sitting comfortably side by side for the ride.

after a longer gap than intended, part two of the cage & aviary remix series lands with a bang. truck are an enigma of a band, only forming when the astral alignments deem it appropriate - the next is due in 2012. cage & aviary take the brilliant vocal into proto/acid house territory with a killer bassline ready to move any dancefloor. crude vocal cut ups add to the 80s remix feel, while guitar licks, god pads, and all manner of prophet warblings come and go in a patchwork of angled sounds. sinister strings cut through at the mid way point before the superb outro vocal takes you home. for the dub, ape into jam & leo zero put their heads together and push the track into more of a dancefloor place, employing arpeggiators to keep the cut and paste elements rolling along. leo is a man of many excellent edits, productions, and remixes - watch out for an exciting new vocal project coming from him soon
