nice price deal !!! paris based duo room 10 deliver a strong tech-house 4 tracker with the help of cadenzas alejandro vivanco. room 10s caracol ep represents a slight departure for metroline: away from the strong dub influence of their last few releases, to something more driving and club orientated. caracol (tambour version), which kicks of the ep, is a heavy slab of heavy, deceptively simple funk. the track builds gradually into a totally infectious groove, which breaks down into an atmospheric, cinematic soundscape that reminds you as much of blade runner and metropolis as it does of a john gaiser or false track

mister ho & heap close their eyes and float downstream. this is their second offering for the esp institute. on side a, feeling hopeful is a straight-ahead burner comprised of minimal thuds, bumps, honks, blips, bleeps and bloops—a harmonious arrangement of percussive elements and soaring synth chords that feels both slow and fast paced, sunset and sunrise hour, island back roads and traffic in metropolis. on side b, gis gis explores a similar notion of contrast, setting a the scene with a driving mechanical hi-hat that never dips below the selection of luscious melodies—a cha-cha bassline, breezy chords and a slippery lead hook that collectively invite us all for poolside pin&#771,,a coladas at the ho & heap villa. these two songs were conceived in the year of the monkey.

repress !! having wowed critics and crate-diggers alike with 2012s acclaimed magik cyrkles compilation, psychemagik are now ready to unleash the follow-up, magik sunrise. bristling with psychedelic, cosmic and curiously balearic oddities hand-picked from the depths of their vast record collections, magik sunrise is, if anything, even more inspired that its predecessor.
given that magik cyrkles was widely considered to be one of the best compilations of 2012, that is some feat. that collection garnered praise across the board, appearing in the end-of-year charts of rough trade, juno and piccadilly records. as if that wasnt enough, dj magazine also described it as f***ing great! for magik sunrise, the kent-based duo has dug even deeper into the dusty corners of their record vault, deep in the cosmic forest. the result is another inspired, 15-track collection that gleefully skips between all manner of forgotten gems and little-known nuggets, occasionally stopping to acclaim an otherwise unknown track or artist.

dripping out of the pores of tokyo high-rises, aquarium deepspace serves up his debut vinyl release and the second instalment on natural sciences. drawing on a palette of 90 s detroit house music and the electronic tropes of his home town of japan, midnight at the tokyo central is the unspoken soundtrack for the lost souls of the metropolis, recounting the ecstasy of smoke-filled dance-floors, the touch of dry ice melting through a fur coat, and travelling through neon at 6am. narrated by two separate protagonists under one identity, deepspace side explores muscular acid trax, aquatic pads and throbbing deep house jams for the floor, while aquarium on the flip is coated in hazy electronics and dopamine drained murk, drawing on field recordings taken at tokyo s central train station (rainy night in shibuya) through to lush subterranean jams laced in serotonin nostalgia.

american label beyond the speaker made an impression with their first release angels against dust two years ago, a tasty 12inch split between legowelt & willie burns. for the latest outing, canadian mastermind michael silver aka cfcf (rvng, ghostly, 1080p) celebrates the soul and grooves of house, electro, and techno. three tracks that balance dancefloor hustle, intricate detail and flourishing melodies. lead track head up is a poignant call to the dancefloor, a peak hour house cut with an emergent vocal sample that rallies all for a blissful groove excursion. the b-side is a moodier affair, with mossy wall submerging the listener with potent rhythms as ominous bass intersects with a waking metropolis of melody. and the classic techno sound of sea of love deftly lulls us with gentle vocals and a looping guitar phrase.

metropolis- is it an actual city or a digital fantasy a construct formed inside a synthetic brain? either way this is the soundtrack to a city that exists somewhere. a place that comes alive at nightfall and breathes artificial light until dawn. where millions of human threads interweave, and a machine conciousness drifts by on the periphery, searching for an intimate connection. limited pressing.

sequencias number 10 should give anyone unfamiliar with the label a good idea of what we are about. three very different artists have given us three very different tracks—collectively forming a sort of manifesto. experimentation, rhythm and reflection are all given equal weight on this record. as with everything we present, it is all in the service of expressing the flawed and the human.

for their next release, the diynamic label turns to a collaborative partnership that has had plenty of success before now, namely ntfo & karmon.

and here we are, just as promised, exploring the dark corners of nick lapien, the man otherwise known as metropolis. this time around, he comes back with a pair of extended cuts that veer off into heretofore unexplored terrain, relishing in detail with a sharp focus on momentum and lyricism.

dood, the second single from claude vonstrokes forthcoming album, urban animal. dood is inherently dirtybird and the one youve been waiting for if you were expecting something nasty from the project. the heart-squeezing booty-bass-line smacks instantly, while the rumbling drawl of the stoned vocal perfectly encapsulates vonstrokes witty spirit. the track is an homage to the time claude spent in los angeles during the production of the album and really captures the fun, dark edge of that sprawaling so-cal metropolis.

nick lapiens debut release as metropolis garnered little attention when it materialized last year. a skeptical yet dedicated network of underground heads built up a subterranean buzz that has yet to spread into the daylight. that initial transmission was thick with the raw analogue flavors that have become ever-present in dance floor fare recently—but his is a sound that is dedicated to the emotive, narrative aspects of electronic music rather than simple fetishization or passing curiosity in the days of yore. this, his second release as metropolis, shows a more focused and patient hand at work. the titular track on the a side is a deep, psychedelic groover. melodies, textures and sequences undulate and intertwine within a lightless atmosphere guided by lapien with optimum restraint. equally pensive and gorgeous, the flood serves as a machine’s beat-less foil on the reverse. made up of little more than feedback and two slow, echo laden arpeggiated sequences, this is reminiscent of jean michel jarre’s more sinister moments: a brilliant paradox of economy and indulgence. expect to hear more from lapien here at sequencias. he has many more dark corners left unexplored.

>bridging the gap between the old & the new, the minimal & the maximal, minmax represents a widening of scope as we explore the area between the sounds of classic minus & plus 8. as others subdivide and categorize we bring things back together, opening things up more freely and allow a closer connection to the music that i love and the sounds & textures that many of my dj sets journey through.< richie hawtin

prplxs entitled fabric of space explores the deeper side of the breakbeat spectre. clever drum programming as well as going in a bass shakin direction, it reminds us of early bluenote & speed days but definitely with a modern touch. these tracks are another testament to prplxs love for the breakbeat. also included here is the roadtested taiga track which starts of deep and hypnotic but surprises you with the harsh amen drop, raw synth and dark male reggae vocal, do we hear a r.e.w.i.n.d.? the album will be released in two parts, the first one is a 250 handnumbered edition on 180 gram crystal clear vinyl (with special 75mm labelcopies and innersleeves) including free mp3 download codes and wrapped in a sealbag. all tracks have been mastered by stuart hawkes from metropolis london. support comes from all the usual suspects. on a first come, first served basis only

from the start of this debut release from amsterdam-based lapien, one conceives that the young producer is conscientious. >anvers<, the french name for belgian port antwerp, starts in unassuming manner, synths swimming, bass pondering, a gentle cymbal tapping. its the sound of thoughtful admiration, as if lapien is standing in front of the citys towering gothic cathedral, motionless in the midst of a now modern metropolis. but then, as loops spring uncomfortably back and an insistent beat thunders into the fray, one realizes that this is no time for admiring architecture: this is a night drive through the city – coarse orange streetlamps, chrome blue reflections, droplet-stained window panes. it is, also, at an unusually and unsettlingly fast pace, dragging its deeper house timbres and textures upwards. conforces mix is anything but restful: alarms in the distance fall around offbeat rhythms of increasingly diverse dynamics, bringing rain down on the city at night. to end, fred ps composition is heavy & uncompromising, yet it quivers with synths washed in beautiful, calming ambience

this is the first part (of four) of the much anticipated reissue series of drexciya s early catalogue, marking 20 years since the release of their first ep deep sea dweller , and 10 years since their final album grava 4 . one of the most influential techno acts ever, and part of the heritage of detroits underground resistance, drexciya explored techno like no-one else before: raw and uncompromising music that reflected the harsh environment of the city where drexciya was conceived, with a mythical approach that only added to their cult appeal. drexciya arguably stands for the darker side of techno and electro, made not only for the club scene, but a further development of the music as an expression and extension of the mind. journey of the deep sea dweller is a near-complete collection of their early works, released in four parts, with all audio remastered from the original master tapes. since the original releases have such a strong character and stand on their own, these reissue can never recreate the magic of those originals. instead, clone have stirred up the catalogue, taking tracks out of their original context, giving the committed fan a fresh experience and the new listener a document that is the best possible introduction to the aquatic world of drexciya.

the wörld is ours is the twentieth album by british rock band motörhead, first released on 14 december 2010.

coming off the heels of the kitano ep, we decided to keep things right in the bustling metropolis of deepness known as melbourne, australia for our next undertones release. after successful outings on both 3rd strike and dirt crew, it just made perfect sense for us to join musical forces with the tortoise. tortoise laces us with two vocally charged joints that set the tone just right. we couldn t think of a better way to put our spin on this release than to feature the extremely talented duo known as genius of time on not one but two remixes .. one for each track! it s definitely a first for us and we couldn t be anymore pleased with how everything shook out.

the big idea! ahoy sarp yilmaz and sinan kaya. after several eps on various labels now release their debut on simple as that records. the two guys from the big metropolis of istanbul bring us here, two beads which make the sun rise. the two men schaeufler & zovsky (acker records, 3000°) and andre kronert (ostwind, night drive music) each control still in a wonderful remix. even more diversity on this record is thus ensured.
