drifting as a snow-smattered cloud from the north, breathing icy winds crackling with the splinters of crystal water and effervescent dust, hedge maze returns to the lobster theremin fold with four gently glowing tracks-from-the-hut that span crunchy house, hotel elevator ambient, deep-sea techno and skittering percussive drone. sand-blasted productions that curdle and bake with the treatment of valve-driven machinery, steadily condensing ideas on a window pane in todmorden.

over the course of four albums, manchester based trumpeter, composer, arranger and band-leader matthew halsall has carved out a niche for himself on the uk music scene as one of it s brightest talents. his languid, soulful music has won friends from jamie cullum and gilles peterson to jazz fm and mojo as well as an ever-growing international following. his label gondwana records is home to gogo penguin and his own albums have found halsall exploring the modal jazz of john and alice coltrane, paying tribute to the hard bop of the late ’50s and early ’60s or most recently on fletcher moss park drawing on eastern influences in his most personal statement yet. his latest album when the world was one is something of a companion piece to fletcher moss park (much of the music was written at the same time) but draws more explicitly on halsall’s love of spiritual jazz and eastern music as well as his own studies in meditation and travels in japan. beautifully recorded at hasall’s favourite studio, 80 hertz in manchester, and engineered by brendan williams and george atkins it features the recording debut of halsall’s large ensemble, the gondwana orchestra, which utilises the exotic flavours of harp, koto and bansuri flute and eastern scales to create a global palate for halsall’s life-affirming sounds.

aqueous, enormous, timeous with waiting alpine, senking offers ous two deep water metabolisms. he cuts through slowly shifting masses with his unique resonance testing and precisely stacked sound waves, making underwater mountain ranges shake and disperse into floating pieces. cologne-based musician and artist senking had his debut on karaoke kalk in 1995, since then he has released several records on raster-noton, among others. his productions explore the depths of electronic music, creating an athmosphere of being 100 miles below sea level.

after their first (very) successful album, cassius decided not to rely on their natural ability to make us dance to their groovy basslines, and came back with a daring project: integrate some mostly african-american influenced singings in their compositions to give electronic music a new dimension.don’t worry,the catchy-rythmic sound of cassius is still here. you might recognise the voice of ghostfacekillah, one of wu tang clan’s members that delivers a punchy performance on the upbeat tempo track “thrilla-, as well as steve edwards, the house music singer who sang with swedish producer axwell, and who’s also known for having lent his voice to bob sinclar on the famous “world, hold on-. we’re releasing the album once more, so that you can get back into the fabulous swing of cassius.

what if we took you back to your untroubled teenage days, when all seemed complicated and easy to reach at the same time? that is exactly what cassius managed to transpose in 15 again: a carefree music, coloured by some deep songs, like an emancipated soul, but always tormented. the hit “toop toop”, sampled by madonna or david guetta, among others, and the intense “la notte” illustrate perfectly this state of mind of the youth. pharrell williams is present on the song “eye water”, a beautiful ode to our planet and its natural resources, and cassius has got further exciting surprises for you. we’re releasing their third album once again for this summer, a real shot of freshness to relieve you from the heat!

disco halal s first reissue! the 1984 cult classic - tcp (aka tony carey project) - tcp sees its re-release on vinyl for the first time, the long sought and super expensive vinyl on the classic label x records, tcp is the extraction of the multi talented ex keyboard player of rainbow that in future days will be known as , tcp, yellow power, planet p, and more outstanding projects. tcp could be easily compared to the works of sakamoto, hosono, and many other of the periodical soundtrack movement of the early 80 s, but no doubt this is a pioneering record, which set grounds to the electronic music we know today. we are very proud to bring this hidden gem, so that it can once again be shared and enjoyed

zum 25ten label-jubiläum veröffentlicht fat possum ausgesuchte titel aus dem backkatalog erstmal auf vinyl so auch the george mitchell colelction von houston stackhouse. es ist george mitchell zu verdanken, dass viele klassische blues-aufnahmen entstanden und bis heute archiviert und verbreitet werden. ab 1976 arbeitete mitchell für das bureau of cultural affairs in atlanta, und er begann das land zu bereisen, um folk und blues-musik systematisch mit einem mobilen aufnahmegerät einzufangen und zu dokumentieren. diese arbeit betrieb er über eine dekade, und durch seinen persönlichen einsatz sind klassische blues-alben wie dieses von houston stackhouse und seinen befreundeten musikern entstanden. stackhouse spielte als erstes instrument die mundharmonika, und seit den 30er jahren spielte er in mississippi gemeinsam mit größen wie robert johnson. später verlegte er sich vornehmlich auf slide- und elektrische-gitarre. so spielte er in der folge auch mit muddy waters, little walter, jimmy rogers, roosevelt sykes und earl hooker.

keeping with the rough release rate of an album every couple of years, prime numbers label boss trus me is back with his fourth full length, planet 4. featuring nine cuts of intergalactic techno and once again marking a considerable sonic evolution for this acclaimed uk artist. never one to do the same trick twice, david james wolstencroft uses his latest album as a vehicle for his own interest in deep space, physics and dark matter. it is those subjects that have occupied his mind in recent years, and those subjects that inform this brilliantly otherworldly album. where previous lps have variously been funk and soul heavy, or openly analogue and physical, this one is a more subtle and supple techno affair that is as cerebral as it is seductive. starting with a monologue that suggests that man has already landed on mars, 1979 is a cut that immediately places you somewhere in orbit. spooky synths and sci-fi sounds are eerie and atmospheric and very much set a perfect tone. from there, there is slow, elastic and unsettling mood music on the unexplained , deep and insular techno on dark flow and trippy dan bell style minimalism on ring round heart . the second half of the lp touches on chunky dub, manic and melodic grooves. this is a coherent statement that holds together conceptually and musically. as well as providing plenty of dynamite for the more discerning dance floor, planet 4 is also a delightfully detailed affair that will work just as well on headphones late at night.

“the earth was incessantly covered in ice, it’s landscape an immense, frozen desert. boulders and sand washed to the valley, crushed under the glaciers’ enormous weight, leaving nothing but the hardest rock behind.” neunau draws inspiration from natural phenomenons, sculpting his indelible and furious expression into materials: a ritual guided only by the rhythm of his own heartbeat. composed exclusively of sounds recorded at the ancient forge museum in bienno, in the middle of one of the largest valleys in the central alps, neunau presents an experience that goes beyond simple listening. his tools — water, iron and microphones — are used to transport the listener through time and place. a true voyage through forgotten ritualism and symbolism, these extracts aim to grind contemporary dance music to its barest essentials, making long-lost times ours again.

every few years in the genre of hip hop there comes an album that gracefully, yet unapologetically steers clear of the redundantly trodden path that so many artist become accustomed to walking. such bravery is often rewarded by the art gods, this time is no exception as uk born , new jersey emcee cymarshall law & hungarian producer mr. joeker team up for the 3rd time and bring you the masterful, hip hop in the soul 3, the first in the series featuring krs-1 , this time a colorful bunch of guests are invited. cymarshall law weaves in and out of different song topics that have rarely been touched if at all effortlessly as his lyrical prowess has yet again moved forward in innovative and original way. the mcs refusal to “ walk in a straight line” is refreshing in a way that lets you know some artists still value originality and crafting a skill of their own. mr. joeker steps forward to prove he is a true gem in the form of a super producer. the production here raises the bar boom bap reigns supreme, though mr. joeker shows great range by taking us into new musical dimensions of his own creation, the result is hip hop in it’s purest , rawest form with a new school twist, an album that by all means will wake many people up to take notice, as this duo is finally putting the soul back into hip hop.

after his turn in conga radio, roberto makes his debut on good timin with four-tracks of classy bangers. leading the charge is the shuffling -junk rudder,- a piece of flanged out club gear that has the grace and grit to take any party to -that next level.- meanwhile, -atomic- is a not-quite peak-hour stomper, while -oceanic- is the sound of goa trance if the drug of choice was high-end coconut water. finally, -twilight- sounds like something bruce hornsby might cook up if he got arrested and could only talk to his lawyer through a broken moog.

in 2006, tim arndt released the first near the parenthesis album “go out and see”. arndt had intended to follow up that release with a more beatless ambient album, where percussion was left to the side and composition took center stage. a shelved idea that we now get the benefit of a full ten years later. this new album helical is the realization of arndt s stripped down ambient concept. helical features arndt’s characteristic experimental modem classical instrumentation and compositional style, but slows things down and stretches them out. the focus on the organic is clear, but moments of ethereal breath weave in and out and prevent the album from becoming too self aware. helical, as a loose reference to the geometric structure of our very dna and it contains themes that are driven by a recent discovery of arndt’s past and ancestry. the release seamlessly stitches all of these concepts together and marks an unique release and new direction for arndt’s near the parenthesis.

if everything suddenly changed – what would that be like?
qnete’s ep is not the question and not the answer. it’s in a hiatus between hopes and fears, still maintaining an eager energy. within a short period of time all tracks were recorded straight to tape, raw and improvised. they remember the sun bath before the storm, when you feel that something is about to roll over you. they express the urge and need to sometimes just jump into the cold water to face what’s coming next. they linger in the nervous energy when you’re lost and don’t know what to expect. but they also talk about the hope of finding a safe place.

covered by water i search for an escape from these tightening walls, far laughs confuse me, and i see the shadows of pedestrians over me, unarmed, in vain i try an handhold but i’m absorbed always more, i do not find an escape, one last inhalation, divides me from the death given to me, no more footsteps, no more shadows, no more laughs, no more water, one thunderous, gentle, rustle dries out each one of my tears of desperation, the eyes get closed, already white because of the cold.

nado16 saw stratus take us all the way from the gower peninsula to the adriatic, and now swedish newcomer gryningen beckons us into a sepia dream for aficionado s third 10- special. the latest example of moonboots & boardman s fine ear for talent, the mysterious gryningen appears out of the shadowy stockholmsnatt without a word or a website, on hand to lead us right through the looking glass. the opiated drones of tvu kvarter frun vintergatan set the tone from the off, shifting and shimmering while languid synths lazily embrace you amid the gentle roll of the groovesome rhythm section. as the opener drifts out into the crashing waves, jag flyter omkring i en ask rises from the baltic sea with a lilting sway and understated melody. cosmic sequences sparkle like water in the moonlight and the subtle textures of acoustic guitar and chimes send us deeper into slumber. the organ-led slia dagar i rymdlaboratoriet tumbles down through the ocean murk into a subaquatic terrain of dubby reverb and psychedelic echo, illuminated occasionally by the refracted shimmer of chiming keys. from that moment of nocturnal shade we soar into the light on the swooning, swaying beauty of frun andra hand till strnnderna i nice . born out of the hazy childhood memory of matinee performances and fine white sand, this exotica inspired beauty warms the soul with its cinematic sense of wonder, all told through orchestral intricacy and steady guitar. this is a dream you ll want to have again and again. officially aficionado.
