the bush is a homage to the place where i have lived for the last decade (askew road). the askew road itself is slowly changing so i wanted to document all the places that play a big part in mine and my families lives before they eventually get sold for more flats or tescos. 002 was all about the mighty sun pub which has now been sold and transformed into a costa coffee and an estate agents. next up is our local park which hopefully will never see change as its been our little slice of heaven in w12 since we moved here.

gentlemans dub club have been rocking the uk and europe since forming in leeds in 2006. theyve built a reputation for one of the most energetic live shows to emerge from the uk bass music scene, seeing the gents antics astound crowds from goa to glastonbury, bestival, v fest, and more, as well as at the biggest bass music festival in the world, croatias outlook festival. partnering with easy star records, gdc is unleashing their second full length album - the big smoke - and expanding their devoted following to north america, europe, australia, and anywhere else they can. the record features 11 tracks including guest appearances by uk reggae singer natty and tenor sax star josh arcoleo.

velvet records proudly presents « v003 », a four-tracks long overview and celebration of the contemporary electronic music scene. together, the artists featured on the french label s first compilation present an audacious look at the depth and span of the scene while also moving the form forward into bold new shapes. touching on expansive deep techno and minimal house, this compilation is made up off exclusively produced and previously unreleased music from ekomine, yaroslav lenzyak, leopol and damien k. sahri, capturing the essence of the current chapter of these genres, hinting at the shape of those to come. french producer ekomine is the first to hit the road with « ramble », a solid sweet-sour blend of atmospheric sounds leading the listener to find himself gently trapped into an unpredictable deep-space diving journey. this is where ukrainian artist yaroslav lenzyak and acolyte rata come in with « cellar door ». no constellations here, but the substantive claustrophobic tale of a spectral entity slowly catching your doppelgänger in the twilight hours. an angel flies and we re suddenly entering the sensitive world of « joy misery » from parisian early analog machines enthusiast leopol, who invites wandering souls to a dance-oriented and delicate voodoo ritual before passing the torch to berlin-based producer damien k. sahri s « travel marvel » which confers the record a multi-ethnic dimension, kindly whiplashing bodies with a mixture of unavoidable pulsations.

goldmin music label founder romain lanteaume alias einka meets detroit minimalism master terrence dixon aka population one for a truly conceptual techno 12-.. terrence dixon is one of our favorite artists and biggest inspiration.. detroitborn artist released his first 12- back in 1994 followed by several quintessential records and 2 epic albums -from the far future- on legendary berlin-based label tresor. terrence is not only a great techno producer who makes subwoofers roar in clubs, he is a man obsessed by a concept, an idea that he s following from the very beginning.. -minimalism- in the reaaaaal sense of the word.. for example, when thousands producers are wondering what s eventually missing in their new track, terrence is rather wondering what s useless, what could be removed and that s definitely what he gets to share on his own -reduction- imprint. after the release of terrence s track -steve austin s mile- on goldmin theme lp, romain got to meet him in detroit during summer 2014. the aim was to make an abstract record that could still be linked to a feeling or a situation.. a1 the edge track is probably a good example as it s designed and built to make you feel like you get closer and closer to the edge while the track is slowly growing until you fall.. can you feel it? :) as for the other tracks, there is also a special idea behind them but we better let you interpret it your way

sold out! what happens when scales and patterns of contradicting emotional imprints combine? when light and darkness, bitter and sweet, frost and blaze collide? those are the questions that johannes heil chooses to address on his upcoming album, opening up a vast grey-scaled area for the listener to traverse with techno as a blindfold. <black light> sees the german techno mainstay return to the album format for an intimate ten track odyssey of close-curtained introspection. heil chooses the words of fellow futurist nikola tesla to set the stage of the black light story: >black is the true face of light, only we do not see this<. track names are dropped in favor of a chronology of scenes, better adapted to the seemingly polar opposition of the forces that the figure and cocoon regular conjures throughout the album. everything that we perceive is processed and set into relation with past memories, digested emotions and iron-branded impressions. battling the current, johannes heil chooses to challenge certitudes by forcing us out of our comfort zones into the absence of light. if the pictures painted on >black light< are dark, they are also far from monochromatic. the machine-driven sonic prism acts both as the heavy cloud and the burst of light that shoots through to guide us. its the aggressor and the victim, the clenched teeth and the jubilant, the paranoia and the sanity of the mind. its pure heads-down driving techno with volumes of grandiose. provoking our senses, extending his art onto our personal canvases, the exile boss gives the listener the freedom to interpret the emotional context of each piece, to write the scripts of the individual scenes. the impression that >black light< leaves upon first listen testifies that 20 years down the road, johannes heil shows no sign of slowing down.

iib next release comes from french duo baptiste & pierre. 2 tracks of warm tropical goodness. virage is a deep mellow afro tinged tropical workout. muted guitar hook and nature sounds conjuring up far flung deserted beaches. ruf dug beefs it up a touch and moves it indoors giving it a more afterhours feel. the second track has the same evocative feel as virage with added atmospheric pads and a bouncy melody. like a closing track on an 80s road movie. full of emotion. italian maestro deep 88 creates a truly authentic slice of early ninetoes deep dreamy house. perfectly wrapping the original in warm analogue drums. another quality release from iib.

a distant shadow of a woman with jet black stringy hair glistened through the nearby shrubbery. was it her, or was i again lost in my own dementia? how in the living world could this be? i sipped on my medicine and fell into a deep sleep. i awoke days later to see her sooty eyeballs rolling over my entire body. her black wings seemed to stretch over a mile wide. they ever so subtly fluttered from the slow wind that was creeping in from the north. i startled when i realized what was happening and sprung up from my chemically induced coma. i grabbed her by the neck as tight as i could, only to realize that i was holding a black birds tail feather in my hand.

we are proud to announce the double lp edition of echospaces phase90 project, lovingly remastered by bazza (abbey road studios/thom yorke) @ alchemy mastering, london. features unreleased new material and beautiful silk screened metallic sleeves and art direction from the very talented lindsay todd of firecracker recordings & house of traps. the entire album was bounced down to 1/4- analog tape prior to remastering to preserve the integrity of the masters. this project was deeply inspired by the possessive quality of supernatural textures, field recordings and found sounds conducted at the calvary cemetery. there is something quite haunting in the underlying tone of these recordings, an ominous feeling not for the fainthearted. -illuminati- celebrates the progression of the soul, a concept which stems from metempsychosis. the material on this album can be interpreted as sinistral--dark, heavy due to the hardware and its currencies emitted by its source--the phase 90. an acidic dream of transliminality, this is the first phase90 project to materialize in its essence, until now. limited to 500 numbered copies.

stamp s back with jascha hagen paying homage to west africa s afrobeat pioneer & a certain female jazz instrumentalist from the famed blue note catalogue. the leipzig based producer first came to the attention of the label after he dropped the outstanding pan that shit out ep on manna all night. here the open minded producer showcases a different side to his production style with two surefire edits that will work wonders wherever they re played. pitched down and spaced out, soldier on the a side is an edit of a politically charged nigerian anthem. this slow burner keeps you locked in with instantly recognisable keys, subtle guitar licks and a rolling bass line that will even make the stiffest necks nod in solidarity. harlem takes you back to a sun-soaked day with this classic 1970s nyc soul anthem dedicated to the road that loops around the north tip of manhattan. jascha takes the jazz-funk anthem and adds extra instrumentation to create a subtle 2015 update...

ultra limited, one copy per customer! in an absurd world, full of unwanted auditory sensations, sometimes we have to escape back to the basement - back to the beats. that feeling, that need, paved the way for blint to release his very first solo ep – blint001. the record is a two-tracker: on side a you’ll find „silent movements“, a bassline-driven broken beat with a dark twist in the end. on the flipside there is „road to ioannina“ which is based on an 808 drum pattern, accompanied by a smooth synth-odyssee. the record comes along with a fine art print of the cover, drawn by graffitiartist rookie the weird, handsigned and numbred on 300gr. paper. a special gadget, that is connecting blint s musical output to his roots in graffiti and hip-hop culture. a true underground-package from germanys ruhr-area!
