ltd repress .. you are not supposed to know that, but the rumour mill is blowing in the wind: to know from hearsay famous dj rainer trueby teaming up with danilo from motor city drum ensemble (aka inverse cinematics) to launch the rainer trueby project. these tracks are more an edit thing, not supposed for official release. both edits are already circulating, and a very limited vinyl seems overdue. a tasty taster by those nice guys!

the first chapter in a series of three eps to come from dutch label field records is from swedish producer staffan linzatti. hypnotic techno from the outer edges of our galaxy combined with richly melodic, angelic and heavenly electronics on the deep space affair. dedicated millsian productions which are riddled with spaceship communications and distant sonar pushes.

(2x180g gold colored vinyl + dl code) charmer is the debut artist album from claptone. in the last few years, claptone has become known for releasing big tracks primed for late nights and packed clubs all over the world.

late october will find cosmin trgs fizic label release its third ep, and a second missive for 2015. once again it comes from the romanian label owner and ever evolving producer, and this time features four more fierce cuts that take abstract inspiration from musique concrete or ballards high rise novel. opener sever is an expertly stripped back bit of concrete basement funk with scurrying alien sounds, frosted lo-fi textures and firmly rooted, propulsive kick drums driving the whole thing along.

friends and fans of tramp records in general, and of the feeling nice series specifically, will be feeling even nicer this time around with the release of this deep and soulful new collection: feeling nice volume 3. these recordings have been painstakingly sought-out and unearthed from as far away as hawaii, canada, and jamaica (in addition to the usual texas, ohio, and georgia). this music has been carefully transferred (in some cases form the sole known copy) and remastered to the highest standards of audio quality. the double vinyl lp comes in gatefold sleeve with bonus 7 inch and download code.

the maghreban is new to house music, and doesnt really listen to house music, which isnt necessarily a bad thing. he has worked extensively in other genres under other names. looking at house from these sideways perspectives perhaps gives him an interesting angle on it. these first two tracks sound a little vintage and there is much more of this stuff to come, all quite dancefloor orientated. early support from call super and gatto fritto and radio play from thristian on nts.

a slightly fresher direction with this ep - no, we’re not a couple is a funked up rolling thing with jungle subs, dubby hats and percussion, shifting textures and film score strings. cortisol is a stressful warehouse jam in 7/8, filtered every which way then taken to church. pacy but doesn’t really sound it. white mice is an afterhours, dubbed-out, drum machine samba workout for smoky basements. slow but doesn’t really sound it. hope you enjoy em! respect, mosca.

because musics 10 years anniversary with 1lp including cd for the first time. metronomys 2nd studio album, nights out is a timely, thrilling, pop album, a future electro-pop classic, comprising a wholly original mashup of electronic, falsetto-laden brilliance, and a thoroughly modern, freakishly danceable record to be listened to from start to finish. includes the singles radio ladio, my heart rate rapid, heartbreaker & holiday

randomer returns to l.i.e.s. with his second release for the label, a 5 track maxi-12inch jam packed with mixing tools to rip the floor. granted these arent your everyday mixers, randomer went in and dug up some percussive nastiness and got all dynamic with it, dropping in and dropping out, heavy kicks and bells, these tracks will work the crowd and are suitable for all nite clubs around the globe. club tested and approved, a classic in the making.

were so excited to be the guys that get to deliver you this guys debut release. luca murgia has a sound all his own he really like tom toms, he likes spacey flourishes, and overall he likes to deliver tracks with mobile electroy grooves married to the stability of house. the thing that really makes him special to us is the naturalness of feeling he achieves in his productions he has a neatness to his grooves everything lines up so the body can move freely and the dancer be in a state of flow. all four tracks on this ep have real singularity of intent in their sounds and rhythms but vary dramatically in intensity.

new artist daniel wainwright brings his psychedelic vibrations to is it balearic? doing it is a slow motion sleazy trip into the acid house. swirling vocals and psyched out guitars melt into chuggy acid beats and effects. coyote up the tempo a touch and strip back the whole track on their remix. dubby vocal samples and muted guitar groove along to an acidic finale. the second remix is a real thing of beauty from mushrooms project. keeping the same slow tempo and adding space and texture with mellow guitars and extra sitar. a subtlely developing tribal workout. groovy man.

delusion men were here before time started to flow and it seems they will stretch out their existence way beyond doomsday which probably explains their archaic impulses reverberating in a foggy, lost future. what they deliver are pieces of straightforward punk plunged into disco depths, kraut derailment and swirling drum machine melancholia. if you are looking for retro-future dystopias with no space for healthy minded horizons, this is the thing for you. delusion men walked together since the inception of future nuggets, although for them the time will never come, we snatched their debut ep. it feels as if through them the old ones are channeling the last messages of hopelessness for dance floors and dining rooms.

conor (no way back, sf, ca) conors an extremely influential, yet somewhat mysterious figure in sfs disco and house underground. its known that he has an enviable collection of disco on wax, that hes not afraid to use it, yet no one seems to know if he sleeps, or where his bed is, or if perhaps he just lies down among record crates with one eye open, scanning his vinyl collection…. in any case, the guy knows what hes doing. along with sfs solar, hes booked, hosted, and played alongside a long list of the worlds best underground electronic, house, and disco artists at his party series no way back, and his taste and talent for curating artists, and selecting records, is widely acknowledged to be some of the best around

this is the first of a 2 volumes series by crackboy dedicated to raw ghetto house and techno rooted in chicago (think armando rather than larry heard) on the thing and detroit on the dirt (think carl craigs project 69). both tracks come with useful dub tools for the real djs out there. pure analog power by a true master.

its that time again at ccb headquarter for reaping the harvest of another good year for the label. the paris club music, volume 3 is here and the journey is better than ever. once again the full crew worked hard to deliver this time a more contemplative yet still percussive set of tracks exploring the dance music of tomorrow. first in the field bambounou and french fries teams up for mizu ni idou suru an intimate slow mo thing playing with intricate rhythm textures and dusty key stabs fading away in the back.

fourth 12 on interzona13 s sister label outerzona13... consistent best-sellers, these little collections of secret weapons have made many friends out there on the floor no.4 is a v/a selection. opening up with a super extended and fired up, not to mention very sought after skye jam flip for a swirling, organ heavy jazz-funker & a salacious mid-tempo house throbber another outerzona hit !

over the last 12 years, kel mckeown, or kelpe, has carved himself a unique perch in the uk s electronic underground. across several full-lengths, eps and remix projects, his misfit electronica has managed to cohere a staggeringly deep spectrum of influence along the way. a natural son and heir to generation warp and the fathers of krautrock, his pioneering experiments in the early 00s also positioned him as one of many stylistic precursors to the arrival of la s now-sprawling beat scene. much like scene-savants prefuse 73 and dimlite, kelpe has remained an enormously respected stalwart of the fringes, always dabbling variously in sampleheavy beat-craft, oddball ambient, and more recently dancefloor-ready club grub.

for it’s 16th (!!!) release, dixon avenue basement jams continues to bolster it’s local infantry with fresh, new blood, this time with the addition of a young but well-seasoned individual hailing from the hinterland of greater glasgow and going by the name of big miz. if you happen to live within an 8 mile radius of a blue lagoon, the chances are you will have already been acquainted with the bold miz, most likely through the longstanding and legendary clubnight/crew he’s a resident & founding member of: offbeat. the length & breadth of offbeat’s tastes also reflects his flexibility as a producer. tracks presented here, such as “good thing” strike a fine balance between good ol’ motor city funk and chi-town oddities such as vincent floyd’s more obscure cuts on d.m, while the velocity increasing “solange” comes like the result of a three-day theo studio session fuelled by bad speed. his talent for catering to the dance has clearly paid dividends when it comes to his productions, with the nuance and instinctive touch he presents us with on his debut dabj 12” clearly marking him from the start line as an already formidable & stand-out force in the heady and increasingly cramped world of house & techno.

perhaps it is something in the water or just plain vodka, we really have no idea but one thing is for sure - there is something special about those moscow disco heads. they sure know how to find a perfect beat and re-edit it to perfection. after lay-far it is now time for arsenii to step into the basic fingers arena. both sides on this 12 are filled with jazz-funk and library infused disco at its best. *allegria* sounds like bob james is jamming with the headhunters and on the flip *turbo* with its generous use of synthesizers almost has an outer space theme. essential indulgence for disco heads & connoisseurs everywhere.

we have become the people that we hate, scuffing and cursing at the world. you run away but you can never walk. you speak the word but you can never talk. you limp on a hill and spill all that shes left you on a saw. rip the shreds into pieces too, why dont you. eat them sweet and raw. if love first brought us together why shouldnt it still? we are human in the end and what makes us dance is no other thing than love. as long as we live, we will love. mrs jones stands as a dedication to mans ability to love, to dance.

two brand-new hard electro-funk jams for poplockers from label boss ed dmx. sure to be popular with funk and boogie revivalists as well as electro and breakdance fans. funk steps features a sparse, handclap-heavy beat, an arabian-style synth hook, some very greasy guitar playing and a vocoder lead vocal imploring the listener to get down and do their thing on the dancefloor. space fonk is an uptempo synth-funk number with squelchy synth bass, vocoder hook and live tambourine and guitar. moogs and lazer zaps all over this one. ed dmx continues to dj & perform live around the world: recent bookings include bloc weekend, batofar in paris, berghain in berlin and many more.

it was in the disco era of the mid-1970s that hot chocolate became a big success. a combination of high production standards, the growing confidence of the main songwriting team of tony wilson and erroll brown, and tight harmonies enabled them to secure big hits such as *you sexy thing* and *every 1s a winner*. pressing on audiophile 180 gram vinyl.

a transverse flutist is an arguably rare sight in electronic dance music, but thats not the only thing setting apart trained instrumentalist and upcoming producer l_cio. having become known to a wider audience thanks to his collaborations with floor-savvy artists like portable or patrice bäumel, the sao paulo native doesnt aspire to be a dj, but instead delves deeper into live performance in a club context - which led him to become that rarest of all things, a live electronic musician holding residencies in regular clubs without ever so much as touching a record. for the latest release from d.o.c., l_cio sat down with aroop roy and the labels mastermind gui boratto to produce an exquisite ep full of enticing grooves, lush harmonies and organic flow, engineered to perfection by gui himself. its an exciting step for both the imprint and the artist - pointing in different directions, but all of them right.

nicolas villebrun, half of society of silence and acid square dance, is putting out his first solo album on fragil musique, accurately titled « snare roll lp ». villebrun only needed a couple of recording sessions during a short period of time, to put the whole thing out from a unique set up. although an accomplished musician, tite seems to leave his technical skills aside when crafting his music, embracing all the spontaneity one would expect from a techno producer. listening to the lp, the title starts to make sense. when the snares are not rolling, the smooth basslines take over, strongly dragging bodies towards the dance floor. hungry man, move into hell, a white track, and the amazing the bell glides are among those. basslines curved as a horse s behind, subtly swifting through the air, are playing around with smartly spread out rhythms and textures. tite comes up with nine commonly grounded tracks, but with the necessary talent and sharpness to produce a resolutely fine, homogeneous, and yet diversified techno lp.

san francisco/paris-based label spring theory is back with its fourth release. called sweet bitter love, it s a four track ep of manic sample-driven house from keita sano, a japanese producer who s been on a roll lately with releases for like-minded imprints discos capablanca, mister saturday night, and strictly groove recordings. sweet bitter love kicks off with the tripped-out flair of -once i found a diamond.- it s an uplifiting bongo-led cut with dubby melodics that sound like the kind of thing sleeping bag records would have put out in the early 80s. jacques renault provides a leaner peak-time version — complete with hard-hitting snares and growling bass — via his -once i found a diamond (jacques renault trouble funk remix).- things take a turn for the delightfully weird on the ep s namesake -sweet bitter love.- starting like a straightforward house cut, it explodes into a psychedelic collage of spaghetti western guitars, tribal calls, displaced jazz fills, and other forms of cleverly sampled soundtrack exotica. the release wraps up with yet another curveball on -bouzouk.- here sano lays out a subwoofer-knocking ny garage house rhythm that takes a left turn with frenzied bouzouki playing charting arpeggios through a haze of echoing foreign voices. taken as a whole, sweet bitter love is that rare idiosyncratic bomb of an ep that will keep your dancers moving and your trainspotters guessing — in other words, it s spring theory through and through.

dear madam, dear sir, ramona is ready to reveal yet another manmade mystery to humanity – *reframe* by benedikt frey. browsing through freys back catalogue, one thing has always been certain with every new record released – freys music has always been mystical, was working in different layers and has never been only a further development of the record before.

ednic is the italian duo of nicola di gabbia and edoardo cortopassi, and by all intents and purposes, they’re an outfit that’s on to a good thing right now. the guys make quality, analog-enriched house and techno, the likes of which comes to the fore here on puas puas, a vinyl only label that’s already featured the likes of the mole, alex piccini and carola pisaturo amongst others. first up on the exceptionally refined strands of the auberste ep sis the sounds of the original, which is a barnstorming cacophony of acid flourishes and tension-filled motifs. a track that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat for some time, it features shades of old-school electro and techno, and is the sort of track that’ll definitely rescue any ailing dancefloor. the aforementioned carola pisaturo then perks up with the first of her two remixes courtesy of her brilliant ‘church’ mix. a bumping and grinding interpretation on the original, it too keeps the suspense high, most notably thanks to a dizzying array of melodies and a series of potent basslines. her ‘botta’ remix is a more stripped back affair, albeit one that still speaks to fans of discerning fare thanks to its relentless attitude. full of shiny percussion and the odd sultry vocal smidgen, it’s further indication of a producer who looks set to enjoy an excellent 2015. this is classy stuff indeed from the puas puas label.
