a leopard cant change his spots and magnus international earned his spots in the sequence hue of oslos disco scene. disco is the single thread that runs through all electronic dance music. after an inconsistent hiatus from recording, the norwegian dj has finally donned the producer cap resolutely for his debut lp. echo to echo promises to be the artists magnum opus, taking on epic proportions in the album narrative.

the last 12 months have been a boon for fans of luke vibert, with the veteran cornishman delivering a killer acid album for hypercolour, and a slick, melodious set of disco-inspired jams under his kerrier district alias. here he returns to regular home planet mu with another typically entertaining set inspired by classic british electronic music. utilising his battery of vintage music-making machines, vibert giddily doffs a cap to early 90s intelligent techno, rave-era hardcore, bleep, chicago acid and braindance, occasionally veering off track via easy listening inspired future jazz, wagon christ style hip-hop head-nodders (the title track, which doffs a cap to a forgotten, mid-90s remix he did for ninja tune) and squidgy, synth-propelled mutant electrofunk.

london-based producer laurence matthew blake has been causing a stir under his citizenn alias for some time, delivering intoxicating, tactile, otherwordly blends of tech-house, powder-house, garage and electronica for the likes of madtech, love fever, 20:20 vision and, most recently, crosstown rebels. here, he returns to the latter with human interface, his debut album. it s a typically fluid and quietly soulful affair, with dreamy pads, touchy-feely electronics and shuffling dancefloor rhythms the order of the day. while there are a few powder house dancefloor moments, as you d expect, blake also doffs a cap to 2-step garage, booming bass house, skewed synth-pop and, on the wonderful you are, string-drenched deep house loveliness

2014 gewann ein unbekannter newcomer namens gold roger das vom splash mag ausgerichtete mot-rap-turnier mit links. obwohl er mit battlerap nichts am hut hat und so recht in keine deutschrapschublade passen will. die gold roger story begann vor gut 20 jahren in dortmund. mit der ersten stereoanlage bekommt er zwei cds: eko fresh und die €rzte. gold roger wird €rztefan, entdeckt die white stripes und skaten fŸr sich. mit den ersten rŠucherstŠbchen wird die lieblingsmusik langsamer und erste raps ausprobiert. als er 2010 kendrick lamar hšrt macht es klick: zum ersten mal wusste ich, wie ich gern rappen wŸrde erinnert sich gold roger und fasst bald den entschluss es ernsthaft mit dem rapding zu probieren. nicht als karriereoption sondern als kunstform.

niemand hat die absicht auf tour zu gehen. veedel kaztro nicht, johnny rakete nicht und gold roger auch nicht. die drei jungen mcs zŠhlen zu den spannendsten newcomern der an spannenden newcomern gerade nicht armen deutschrapszene. statt promo- und massephase machen veedel kaztro, johnny rakete und gold roger lieber phasenweise musik
