following last years extended versions 3, barcelonian underground bld hits us with a new ep straight to the club. two versions of the monstrously acid and beautiful dub building track crawling on the a side and the epic break beat twisted on the flip side. limited copies.

for some it might be kraftwerk, but for me, my favourite electronic pioneers are probably australias severed heads. they were so far ahead of the game that they had to invent a lot of the technology they used. inspired, playful, never boring and always sonically brilliant they pushed at the frontiers of electronic music more than most. by the late 80s they were pursuing a slightly more polished course and made a series of records that had the potential to reach a much larger audience. possibly because of their name they never quite managed that, but they had several big club hits, the dub versions of which crossed over into the nascent house scene. i am honoured that i am able to make the dubs of those three 12 inches from 1988 - 1990 available again.

echte hits gehören auf kleine schwarze scheiben, dachte sich die kölner band die sonne und legt nach ihrem famosen debütalbum, das im august 2014 erschien, eine schöne vinylsingle vor. auf den beiden a-seiten finden sich die lieder *für alle* und *untergehen*. beide liveerprobte smasher, die sich sofort zu band- und publikumslieblingen entwickelten und deshalb so schnell wie möglich auf platte gebannt werden mussten. *für alle* überzeugt mit catchy stadionrock auf metaebene, während der krachige herzensbrecher *untergehen* mit einer satten portion feelings und einem ohrwurmigen gitarrenlick zuschlägt.

das zweite album soll das schwerste sein , besagt eine alte musikindustrie-weisheit. hört man sich fÜr immer wochenende an, muss man diese jedoch relativieren: der rapper weekend hat die vermeintliche mammutaufgabe mit bravour gelöst und eine platte gemacht, die ihm nicht nur unfassbar gut steht, sondern seine kunst auf ein neues level hievt. weekend ist nicht nur ein sympathieträger erster güte, sondern kann geschichten erzählen wie kein zweiter, das wissen wir seit seinem debüt am wochenende rapper . diesmal steht jedoch nicht sein eigener werdegang im fokus sondern die geschichten an sich.

london based us producer lance de sardi joins the hudd traxx fray for the last 12inch before the label hits 50 releases and commence the 10th anniversary celebrations. although there s only three cuts on west country, de sardi more than shows his diversity as a producer and it s a fine addition to a discography that dates back to the 90s.pariah kicks the ep off in fine style with smooth beats, an infectious vocal and lush pads ensure that this will be a big one for the heads. flip for the b side and find a tough acidy number in youth, and a groovy track in race the clock which is made for the dance floor. 2015 is already proving to be a big year for hudd traxx following releases from iron curtis & nachtbraker, and lance de sardi keeps the flag flying high with this solid ep.

käse kool s fifth release, the friends n no ends ep, is comprised of 5 berlin-based producers, each of which brings his own unique sound to ep. a1, appearance, comes from the face behind crude wax, vincenzo maurice. this tune comes with a rough attitude of sheer analogue house. a2, wismut, comes from the man with the plan, nick beringer. this track speaks for itself with its punchy bass-line and direct groove. b1, visions, comes from a newly formed duo who goes by mode7. this promising duo hits it home with their newest track visions as its sweet and sultry pads play with the drive of bass and drums. lastly b2, system is wack, comes from a producer who goes by the name of aurhythm (aka dennis sekyere). this track speaks for itself, as being very rude with it s rough drive but still keeping its own delicate stems

the supremes, the most commercially successful girl group in pop history, were one of the jewels in motown records artist stable. given wonderful material by motown s amazing songwriters, the group scored numerous number one pop hits, as did singer diana ross when she left the group and went solo, and motowns bright, modern, and uptown image as a label had a lot to do with the way these ladies gracefully and elegantly presented themselves and took over a song. two dozen of those number one hits, both as the supremes and as ross solo, are collected here, including the timeless classics *come see about me*, *you cant hurry love*, *you keep me hangin on* and *stop! in the name of love*. the album also features a bonus remix of *you keep me hangin on*.

brighton s ever-cultured black key label pushes on with another house connoisseur for its next release, namely the venerated scotland-based deep house producer brad peterson. opening up the ep is -monsoon- a nice and propulsive house jam that journeys through deep space with infectious drum hits and radiant synths fleshing out the rubbery groove. -sit back- is a more reflective and sombre cut, with wallowing, liquid chords draped over a ponderous, snaking bassline. the classy, cultured work continues on closer -cloud remedy- with its reverb coated hits, decisive drums and carefully spraying, ever shifting synth patterns. classic but not overly reverential of the past, it s a beautifully musical bit of deep house with gently tumbling, starry night sky melodies to die for.
