after 15 releases and years of experience, kez ym has established his reputation as a masterful house producer, a world class dj, and a pillar of the japanese deep house cannon. over the course of multiple sold-out releases on faces records, 4lux, theplayground, city fly, and yore records, kez ym has developed a unique sound that sets his work apart. with �random control� (bbc-004), kez ym is back with four new york house (garage house) tracks that instantly catch your attention, raise your spirits, and remind you why you love dancing to his records.
infusing the tracks with his signature mix of disco, funk, afro, and deep house elements, kez ym has produced some truly perfect examples of new york house. conjuring up images of the mythical larry levan and colorfully adorned dancers representing all classes of people in new york city dancing together in a hot paradise garage, this ep could just as easily be played out during a set at dekmantel or keep the crowd bouncing in a sweaty basement in neukolln.

repressed on audiophile quality, 180 gram double vinyl. this second helping from the sessions that produced the preceding kid a will probably strike close listeners as a bit more structured, though it ll be difficult to determine whether thats simply because the peregrinations of the last album have prepared them for the trips to the outer limits taken here. those expecting a u2 like return to tuneful, anthemic guitar rock will have their hopes dashed upon a rock of colourful electronic experimentation and moody, studio enhanced madness.

das debütalbum der gruppe von januar 1967 enthält den welthit light my fire und den song the end, der unter anderem durch den film apocalypse now wieder bekannt wurde und dessen originalaufnahme teilweise auf plattenaufnahmen wegen seines textes zensiert wurde. dabei handelt es sich um die griechische sagengestalt Ödipus, ein königssohn, der unwissentlich seinen vater tötet, seine mutter heiratet und mit ihr schläft. die textzeilen: �father i want to kill you, mother i want to fuck you� erschienen der Öffentlichkeit als zu vulgär, wenngleich schon seit jahrtausenden selbige szene in den theatern aufgeführt wurde. weiterhin enthält das album das brecht/weill-lied alabama song.

polysom brazil 180 gram vinyl lp repress import, released in 1969.
heady heady work from the legendary gal costa � caught here right at her early best, smack dab in the middle of the tropicalia years! the album�s one of gal�s legendary collaborations with arranger rogerio duprat � and it�s very much in the spirit of her other incredible session from 1969, but also features some even heavier and more tripped out guitar � in a way that really pushes the psychedelic aspect of the work! the sound here is really amazing � very fuzzy and freaky at times, in ways that make the album one of the most rocking sets of the entire tropicalia scene, but in ways that still hang onto the quirky experimental qualities of work by os mutantes or caetano veloso. gal�s vocals really rip out amazingly at times � light years away from the sweet sound of the late 70s, and more in the frenetic, urgent style you�d expect from the politically-charged scene that spawned the set. caetano veloso and gilberto gil join gal on a great version of -pais tropical-, jards macale guest stars on the classic -empty boat- � and other tracks include -tuareg-, -meu nome e gal-, -pulsars e quasars-, and -cultura e civilizaco-. essential!

following swayzak�s gestures of a sycophant, the third release on beatnik boulevard sees the return of appleblim after he launched the label in style with the conch shell motives ep. this time the berlin-based producer is working alongside long-time collaborator and fellow bristol bassweight alumni komon � the duo have turned out eps for aus music and apple pips in the past, but this 12� represents the first new material from them since 2014. the heads-down, meditative lilt of appleblim & komon�s bristol past looms in the shadows on this ep, but it�s shot through with a steely, modernist dance floor bite and high-end sound design. know yourself pivots around crafty, 2-step kinked drums but there�s plenty of space afforded to atmospheric synth surges that plunge the track into a mood-altering headspace just to the left of the conventional dance floor

the best of earth, wind & fire - originally released in 1978 - now back on vinyl.

hola, amigos! our next 12- comes from mexico, delivered to you by the one and only rodrigo alvarez aka rainforest, known already for his output released through monochrome recordings, omni music, cadence recordings, skutta records, or 45seven. so once you�re familiar with the said list of his affiliations, you might imagine what to expect. the most appropriate term for a common denominator to describe the content of this ep would be, let�s say, jungle refurbished. feel more than welcome to explore rainforest�s world of beautifully-crafted complex drum patterns, low-frequency bass lines, and rich palettes of background samplework. we�re positive that your early-morning cup of coffee can be well substituted with the powerful, fierce-percussioned squad nights. the pensive, deep-end blu diesel euphoria will help you digest your daily concerns, and the exotic, desert-inspired sound tribe will give you a strong energy boost. given a bowl of so varied ingredients, you can be sure that you get a really wholesome treat, especially if you�re after something more organic. in terms of sound, that is.

pretty great sounds from the legendary antonio carlos jobim � an album cut a bit later than his bossa years, but with a darkly sophisticated sound that�s pretty darn compelling! the album features larger orchestrations by claus ogerman, and in a way, it�s similar to the jobim album on decca from 1973 (aka maita pere) � in that it�s got all the simple elements of jobim�s earlier bossa scoring, flushed out into moodier orchestral forms that we�d rank right up there with the modernist work of gil evans or duke ellington. a few cuts have a breezier sparer sound, and you�ll hear english versions of some older bossa tunes. titles include -dreamer-, -canta mais-, -olha maria-, -wave-, -two kites-, -this happy madness-, -song of the sabia-, -estrada do sol-, -voce vai ver-, -off key-, and -triste-.

for release number 16 on de:tuned stefan robbers aka terrace steps up to the plate. the veteran and well-respected dutch producer from the city of eindhoven unleashes four brand new techno tracks with a strong detroit dna for the discerning dancefloors. it�s everything you�d expect from a terrace release: a crisp and warm analogue sound with plenty of melody and groove, dubby undertones and fat chords. the icing on the cake is the optical themed artwork created by designer openmind (aka strictly kev, dj food, ninja tune). as per usual matt colton from alchemy mastering reworked the source material to guarantee a flawless listening experience. this release will be available on 180 gram vinyl. a digital release will also be available from all the usual outlets. stay tuned!

southern italian sociologist, dj and electronic music producer simone gatto is about to release his second album, heaven inside your frequencies, in december 2017.

both the album and the essay result from gatto�s personal experiences as well as his ten-year�s artistic career: the love of his motherland and his parents, the first approach to clubs, the studies about the potentiality of frequencies, the electroacoustic experimentation and last but not least, the aesthetic sonorous research.

perth, capital of western australia, sits where the swan river meets the southwest coast. sandy beaches line its suburbs giving purpose to hot summer days, but after sundown, the city is where its at, if you know where to look. its possible that this double-life is what inspired the deep, melodic, futuristic sounds of one of australia s most mysterious electronic dance music labels of the 90s - red ember records.
