after a first lp supported by various artist as rone, rodriguez jr, ark, electric rescue, morpheus or laurent garnier, timid records is proud to announce arno gonzalezs second album: *the delivery boy*. more personal (no featuring this time) and more direct into producing process, arno tells us pieces of his own story: a come back from a gig in brest (back from vauban), a crazy sunday afternoon (domingo dance), a trip to japan (kimura), a train ride to charles de gaule airport (angers/cdg). he also recalls with a dose of sorrow the cycles effects of buzz and modes into music (less was more) , the old time techno (the break), noisy and synthetic funk (the message) or the crazy run of a delivery boy (the delivery boy) which will be soon clipped by the motion designer smoh. the most surprising thing after a first listening is the work on textures and vibes which give consistency to the all album sailing between electronica, inspired techno and house grooves. finally, camille rodriguez and damien *timid boy* almira give us 2 stylish and efficient remixes which will find, for sure, the path to best djs turntables. enjoy your meal!

bushwick17 is a project by costanza francavilla and alex infascelli. it is a 17 minutes improvisation session, recorded in bushwick on a summer afternoon - with no additional edits, mixing or efx. the idea is based on both artists s obsession with the number 17: the concept was to freely capture 17 minutes of their day together, without any thought before the act or any extra sound manipulation after the act. costanza placed 2 mics on the floor in the middle of the room - facing the wall - and played synthesizers while merging herself with dreamlike vocals into ambient floating textures. alex turned on a fan that was abandoned in the studio, placed the electric guitar in front of it, creating ethereal drones, and moving from guitars atmospheres to abruptly exploding yet sultry drums patterns. the result is an hypnotic sonic journey into an indefinite condition of space and time.
