so, here we are at loch lomonds fourth album, dresses, and its a spectacular, moving piece of work. employing piano, cello, flugelhorn, vibraphone, dulcimer, banjo, belle plates and, perhaps most affectingly of all, some dazzling choral arrangements, dresses can be remarkably understated for an album flushed with so many orchestral characteristics

this single-side vinyl, pressed in 100 cps limited edition, is the happy ending of one of the most played tracks from our friends djs and strictly grooves followers. >sweet pussy pauline< is a classic, an hit that increases over the time, in months of gigs between berlin and reggio emilia, london and garda lake. our job is to make good music and share it with those who appreciate it, but this time we have done much more, because sweet pussy pauline has become a true piece of art in the hands of tatiana festi, who designed directly on record, label to label, 100 unique pieces. tatiana is a very renowed artist, becoming bigger and bigger thanks to her brilliant style, its creatures, its sensual girls, with languid eyes and provoking mouths. and though in acid colors, bright and pop, painted with a meticulous technique and surprising signs of felt pen, all have something of the femme fatale and at the same time, victims of love.

breaking the rules and beeing anything but mr. nice guy - with this massive new ep on karateklub blood & tears shows his straight, trippy, disturbed and mindthrilling way of getting a dancefloor boiled, slaughtered and painted blood-red. blood on the dancefloor is a hypnotising anthem, a bow to the sound of frankfurt of the mid ninetees, pounding more than nine minutes, combining the catchy grooves of todays- and the spirit of oldschool techno with rising pads and pushing sequences. this was made to be played on big floors on very high volume, so turn it up and see what happens when the drums return after a breathtaking break...because blood will follow blood - flip the disk and drop the needle. another advanced dj tool awakens the b-side - your truth was just another lie, something like the beautiful silence before the storm which is the heavy and absolutely non-compromising i wish you were dead. eight minutes of hate and destruction, of nothing but pure techno and a statement that needs no fucking explainings!

played by todd terje, tim sweeny, mungolian jet set, bill brewster, dj cosmo and more. on this release they don’t seem to hide their combined love for soundtrack and trip hop at all! the heavy sonic landscape that is painted then suddenly gets some strokes of warm synthetic keys while a mid tempo 4/4 bass drum hypnotically keeps you going towards the end. finally you kindly get administered a dose of druggy guitar for maximum distortion effect.on the flip norwegian top-flight psychonauts mungolian jet set show their genius by telling a totally different story. for their dark & gloomy medievel knievel version the main theme from bs&f gets many variations and transpositions.this is a genuine and highly intelligent epic dance floor masterpiece not for the faint-hearted!

and so we have, >irst_te?< the word is bay area fillmore slang for >thirsty?< worthy saw it painted on a fence somewhere and made a track about it. this could be a breakout year for worthy who has already had multiple plays on radio one of his >whistler< remix and >that funkin noise< from his digital label, katabatic. >irst_te?< is bouncy and fun and it sounds kind of like it was inspired by the band in the original star wars with the alien clarinet players and the blue elephant on keys. claude vonstroke takes it darker and more techno, with an epic sounding build that could fit into almost any set

hercules and love affair Ð the name itself combines images of strength and vulnerability, masculinity and femininity, as well as a classic disco troupe. their music on their self-titled album debut followed suit. strident beats but sweetness at the core. music with a plan of attack but an identity as fluid as that of its creators. a gloriously burnished fusion of three decades of dance, from disco to house, acid to synth-pop, derrick may to giorgio moroder (and lets not forget yazoo), but sounding like no other dance record before Ð or since. and now theyve gone and done it again. the troupes second album blue songs represents the best that dance music can get Ð still bursting with freshness while in touch with its roots. as mainman andy butler says, >its a softer record in some ways, and at other moments a more aggressive record too.< the album also reveals more about his world and his songwriting, resulting in a more honest, and yet more universal, record
