if you are going to put out a remix ep you might as well go for it...and he has! excellent stuff!

looking back at the on the prowl catalog one will notice the string of italian producers simoncino, nicholas, marvin & guy. otps love affair with italian producers continues with south italys nasty boy. with a half dozen eps already under his belt, he continues his forward march down the road of deeper house. his tracks tend to have a lovely melancholy with simple pads, and a vibe thats hard to ignore

the next two optimo trax releases are from milan. this first one is four hot tracks from two self-effacing milanese maestros. *acido* is already shaping up to be a club classic and never fails to cause a commotion, it has been thoroughly road tested throughout summer 2013. the other tracks cover all idiosyncratic bases from high grade sleaze funk to spaghetti western-infused, low-slung house.

its been a big year for breach, a.k.a. ben westbeech. his track jack hasnt just blown up on danceoors across the globe: its laid waste to them. in the process, jack got to number 9 in the uk charts. not bad considering westbeech has always seen breach as an underground thing.

limited edition pink vinyl pressing, 300 copies only. includes a remix of *amber road* by the haxan road.

these three tracks were recorded by daze maxim and oliver bondzio during the studiosession in 2003 for oliver bondzios straight outta d-town album which was released on cocoon recordings. since music has no expiring date oliver finally decided to release them

optimo trax is an offshoot label of optimo music for tracks aimed at djs/dancefloors. yes, we know there are too many record labels already, but we felt an overriding desire to start another one as so much music that didnt seem quite right for optimo music (i.e. music that was specifically designed for dancing) kept coming our way. like the parent label, optimo trax will release music by new artists and excavate forgotten classics. luma is a project by dave clark from glasgow. dave had his first release as a member of state of flux in 1993 on t&b vinyl, the label twitch ran with his dj partner of that era, brainstorm. twitch and dave have continued to work together in various ways ever since. he has released records as truffle club, and as big ned on optimo music as well as working with twitch from 2005 - 2010 remixing a plethora of artists under the optimo (espacio) moniker before fatherhood necessitated him focusing on changing nappies rather than programming synths. dave has also recorded under various aliases for r&s, numbers, stuffrecords, dissident and wireblock. the twentieth anniversary of that first release seemed a fitting date for dave to unleash his monster new club music alter ego, luma on optimo trax. twitch thinks dave is the best producer in scotland and endlessly weeps into his gin and tonics about how unprolific dave is, so was ecstatic when the 4 killer tracks were delivered that make up this third optimo trax ep. these have been thoroughly road tested over the last few months at gigs around the world.

new label back to the balearics follow up the superb maricopa ep with a stunner from berlin based live music collective spleen. part one in their musical odyssey *fusionary* consists of live jams and instrumentation over computer-based syncopation, their music has a strange yet organic flow to it, which is both hypnotic and rhythmic. think kraut influenced, psychedelic dub funk with a touch of alt pop and you will be on the right road, but still miles away. music is better than words ... spleen prove that. limited edition vinyl with beautiful printed sleeves.

3 x 12 inch lp featuring 11 full length tracks in all their glory coming in a beautifully designed spined sleeve holding all 3 vinyls from the release.

the star eyed condition is chameleonic effort in the impossible to pin down trajectory of loden s career. the belgian-based producer and musician has already proven his facility for glassy disco and droning ambient on his 2005 debut valeen hope, and glitchy hip-hop via his work with sole and thirsty fish.
on his new album, koks goes even further beyond his already drawn boundaries. there is a touch of robo-electro to tracks like *optimist never cries* and *sanesserarian* (a play on the phrase *ça ne sert a rien* or *it is useless*). he brings the ghostly sounds of german electronic pop into the dirtiest of hip-hop beats. and on his collaboration with rhymer doseone, *future confetti*, he gets lost in a psychedelic wilderness worthy of dj danger mouse.

dj support so far: tensnake, deetron, huxley, joris voorn, ben westbeech, george fitzgerald...
having produced some stellar jams for labels like somethink sounds, and giles petersons brownswood, eliphino aka tom wrankmore, debuts for hypercolour this autumn, opening up the labels new term with this solid two track release. i dont care opens the account, all chopped up rnb vox and rolling beats, wrapped up in a super smooth melody. already road tested by the hypercolour firm over the last few months, this deep garage vibe hits the sweet spot for sure. on the flip, understand further plunders eliphinos love of rugged garage beats and an ear for a catchy hook. a feverish interplay of vocal chops, keys and organ stabs keeps up the ante, with some decidedly trancey synth parts ramping up the 90s house influences here, and once again a cut that most definitely brings the heat to the dancefloor.

5th arctic monkey album vinyl lp in gatefold sleeve, mp3 downloadcode included.

another handy 12 inch of dj tools, de- and re-constructed from the raw materials of james holdens *the inheritors* album and thoroughly road-tested in his own dj sets. this time it is the turn of trippy instrumental album interlude *the illuminations*. in its 12 inch version club incarnation, holdens mystical cascading arpeggios are juxtaposed with a skittering detroitian thump to cater for a multitude of bewilderment-inducing dancefloor moments the world over. the drumsolo strips things back to functional old school techno basics as we get to eavesdrop on holden jamming with his modified dr-110 drum machine. finally, the extended arpsolo draws out the melodies of the original into a dreamy boards of canada-esque bonus indulgence.

ridley road market, dalston, london. august 2013 before the outbreak, the market was full of exotic food, clothes and spices. now all thats left is a sea of mindless undead beings roaming the streets, a non stop 808 low­end rumble and the stench of chicken bones. all this because of a record. it looked different. it sounded different and the results of playing it were catastrophic. as soon as dawn day nights 2012 debut ep was played, a ritual began . . . unbeknown to music lovers all over the world, they had given dawn day night the power to walk the earth once again. that power now grows stronger and he is almost ready to re­animate 4 undead booty shakers: the re­animations ep. with his undead army growing and a diary full of festival shows this summer, ask yourself, are you prepared for survival

midnight moves. thats what comes to mind when you listen to cale parks s n1, preferably at an hour long after dusk has settled around you in some beautiful, insomniac city. parks finds – or more aptly, seeks – beauty and grace in ambience and shadows. n1 starts as pure atmosphere – it feels at first like a sort of lovely sonic nothingness slowly taking form – before growing into the darkly lit, gorgeous moodscape it later becomes. a sensual bassline, a pulsing downbeat, a cinematic piano, strains of italo disco, and the sensation of breezing down a lightless road. if you could make sensuous shapes of the night – imagine kneading the dark itself – it might, at the very best, feel like this. the task of remixing parks s original is taken up by french duo paradis, who can otherwise be heard making music on tim sweeney s beats in space label. the paris-based producers shine a brightening light on parks s dusky creation, quickening its pulse and trading in its darkwave undercurrents for enlivening techno and house. theres an element of floating here – a dreaminess in the rhythms, an astral aspect to the keys beaming through the beats. and with the addition of vocals, sung in french – a pop finishing touch on a song that already feels like an earworm – the transformation is complete. this excellent introduction to cale parkss music is also his debut release on the hakt label.

i do not like the day.
i dance, i drink, i kill.

ok, first of all i want to reveal a myth: these infotexts are mostly writtenby the labelowners themselves, not by hard-working editors. so what happens, when the guy behind a label releases his own music? well, either he is a well-organised deadline-machine and he asks somebody capable of doing this stupid job, or he realizes:
>oh fuck the distribution whats to do their work and they needed thissheet weeks ago...< so in the end, hes gotta do it himself: of course,now i could tell you how great this record is (what it is!) and what ahell of a motherfucker i am (also true!)... but i prefer telling yousentimental other bullshit instead... :)
this ep marks a newbeginning in my career. since some time now, >the fog burns off< and we get more and more stable in the buisness. last year we were on the road quite a bit and we found many new friends. people from other cities, who believe in the same things, who do similar stuff and who are of the same kidney as we are. so that makes me very happy, which reflects in the music. for the first time i feel like coming home, although we are at the beginning of our journey into the industry yet.

with his debut album back to bedlam, elia vens presents the astonishing result of his musical rebirth. no doubt, he keeps the balance between underground techno and rhythmic house music with a dash of haunting melodies. the production time of one and a half years proofs his will to accurately establish a serious musical base and that he took his time to collaborate with several artists from divergent fields. the element of surprise runs like a golden thread through all tracks and eventually leaves behind the answer to the very question for the identity of elia vens.
