after repeatedly being visited by a strange messenger in his dreams while on tour in the islands of greece, toby pazner became consumed with a vision to tell the stories of theolympians through music. chosen by the gods as a messenger for not only his musical gifts, but for his unique position at the center of the daptone family, toby built a home studio from scratch and employed some of the top soul musicians in the world to help him breath life into this album. the result is a dramatic and cinematic journey to the outer limits of instrumental soul music, built on a foundation laid by the same craftsmen who’s bricks built the legacies of sharon jones, lee fields, charles bradley, the budos band, and menahan street band, and painted with lush strings, harpsichord, harp and horns. the olympians is destined to be the instrumental gem of the year.

black crow is the third single to be taken from the album ‘the soft bounce’. part american gothic, part future movie soundtrack, it’s a song of haunting beauty. holly miranda s vocal glides across reflective strings and delicate crystalline snippets of sound, resulting in an epic torch song lament. it’s backed with white crow, erol alkan s mighty extended reworking of the song, placing it in spacious widescreen, where you can hear for miles.

tale of 2 cities (or t.o.2.c for short) is the culmination of what was just a whim of an idea from label owners mike & justin. it s the first of its kind for us & anyone who knows anything about kolour ltd should know that we shall leave no stone un-turned on a release of this magnitude. this 14 track, 3x12 vinyl compilation is a smooth journey throughout the realms of deep house, mid-tempo grooves, funk/soul, with an edit (or two) for good measure. disc 1 features the incomparable talents of jimpster (under his franc spangler alias), admin, ugly drums & lady blacktronika, henry wu, and the hue ft. kissy asplund. disc 2 features the fouk boys, frank booker, vincenzo de bull & halve soul, & inkswel. disc 3 features the talents of eddie c, napoleon, sleazy mcqueen & vinyladdicted, patchworks, and leblanc. 3 x lp in a trifold sleeve & poster.

nice price deal !!! eclier (siberia) proudly represents the new cold wave from the east: electro break, robotic vocals and spacey pop synths: all together this siberian chemistry is a hot hymn to the dancefloor. after the release in july of >the hole< ep (ref. mako004), supported by mr oizo, das glow, mixhell, zombie nation, autodidakt, etc., eclier is coming back in october for his new « the future is now » ep. with new bombs for the dancefloor, on the productive label boxon records. if ecliers first album took you on an amazing trip, this new project with more rhythm will take you directly to exploding parties. girls, the word is dancing. after a few remixes for some artists of the label boxon records and an ep on proxys label, we were right to expect a true hurricane. no options left, its gonna come. with intros very much turned to an atmosphere close to b.o. s.f. and a new wave touch, nikita, who comes from the great siberian cold, adds an electro touch to choruses that just make the ice melt. a perfect example to be found on >rockfall<, heritage of digitalism. the saturated melodies are bloody efficient and the beats powerful. away from a lament or a lullaby, eclier earned his stripes, and took vitamins. we definitely find this craving energy on >spider< that ends this three-track record. eclier has everything of big man now: tom deluxxs enthusiasm and the combined new wave touch of the cut copy. he gets closer to proxys ingenuousness. >the future is now< (text by céline fula, october 2010 – traduced by cécile guidon)

this is an album of deeply emotional music. it s not all heartfelt niceties and eye-welling moods though. rhythmic theory did after all come to light (or should that be dark) in the gloomy alleyways of uk soundsystem music begat from dubstep and all that other stuff. -creeper- is on hand to affirm that this is a record still steeped in true, stern moodiness, where a stalking sub line, some metallic percussion and an icy drone can still strike fear more than a thousand angry wobble basslines. it s worth noting how much attention has been given to shorter vignettes. as well as the aforementioned, cryptically titled -interlude-, -work of fiction- and -end (of forever)- both give insights into the places rhythmic theory cares to roam beyond the structure of a long form track. these are places where melancholic or downright ambiguous dispositions interplay with each other, from the synthetic to the earthly, the malevolent to the tender. in the end, even at its most monochromatic, nothing is black and white on rhythmic theory s debut album, and that s just fine with us.

introducing broken dreams, a new series of white label releases on rotterdam based pinkman label. first up is metropolis, who returns with four wave, electro and body music hybrids. a quartet of tracks that draw on lapien s diverse catalogue, this is undoubtedly some of his darkest music to date. acid, new beat and post-punk influences bubble and churn throughout. crisp beats crash, strings lament, vocals sigh and synth stabs squirm for an ep that refuses to conform to norms. a hoarse and harsh cry to open a new pinkman chapter.

das album ist ein aufregender mix zwischen hommage und frische, das statement eines jungen künstlers, der furchtlos seine einflüsse feiert und selbstbewusst seine eigene originalität vertritt. die songs huldigen elementen der amerikanisch-afrikanischen kultur in den usa, die romare studiert hat. der name lehnt an romare bearden an, dem bekannten cut n paste künstler, dessen technik auch bei der entstehung der songs inspirationsquelle war. romare novelliert den profunden kulturellen einfluss der kollagentechnik für eine neue generation von hörern. jetzt, als teil von ninja tune, ist die bühne hergerichtet für das debütalbum * projections*, das, wie die besten alben aus der dance-musik, geprägt von szene und genres ist, aber nicht ausschließlich durch diese. es ist ein eigenständiges, fesselndes universum, das seine erforschung belohnt. die doppel-lp erscheint auf 180 gramm vinyl, inklusive downloadcode.

tori amos gilt als rätselhaft, bizarr und voller leidenschaft. in den letzten 20 jahren ist sie zur kultfigur aufgestiegen und hat den ruf erlangt, eine der versiertesten künstlerinnen und songschreiberinnen zu sein. jetzt erscheint ihr 14. studioalbum unrepentant geraldines. nach einer serie mehr klassisch inspirierter und innovativer musikalischer ausflüge in den letzten fünf jahren, offenbart unrepentant geraldines die rückkehr zu ihrer ursprünglichen identität als schöpferin zeitgenössischer songs von außergewöhnlicher schönheit. diese werden mit großartigem bandsound zum leben erweckt und bringen tori amos genau zu dem singer/songwirter pop zurück, mit dem sie mehr als 12 mio alben verkauft hat und weltweite charterfolge feiern konnte. es ist auf gewisse weise eines der spannendsten comebacks des jahres - wenn tori amos auch nicht wirklich fort war, so hat sie doch andere pfade beschritten - und man wird davon beeindruckt, wie gut dieses neue popalbum klingt

tychos *past is prologue* has a storied history. the tracks began as sunrise projector, tychos 2004 full-length debut on gammaphone records, the record was then expanded and reissued in 2006 as past is prologue on merck records, and now, ghostly international is reissuing tychos original masterwork, re-introducing graphic designer / producer scott hansens musical universe: a lush, expansive imaginary landscape of sepia-toned keyboards, warm downtempo beats, and mile after mile of sun-dappled beauty.

2013 repress !

mit seinem longplay-debüt tritt der produzent und sänger aus sacramento endlich mal selbst ins licht der Öffentlichkeit. als mitmusiker von zach hill, techniker und co-produzent der dirty projectors und gitarrist für marnie stern stand raleigh moncrief stets in der zweiten reihe, auf >watered lawn< rückt er ganz nach vorn. selbst gemachter elektronik-soul, sich vortastende psychedelic, das ganze im steten wechselspiel aus hell und dunkel und folkig intim vorgetragen. dabei schmiegt sich moncriefs herzschmerziger falsett an westafrikanische gitarren, synthie-effekte und verhallte beats. aus melodien werden rhythmen, aus moll wird dur, aus r&b grunge. und manchmal klingt es wie ein in acetat getauchtes stück von panda bear.

a year and a half in the making – well, spiritually at least – the air jordan ep soundtracks a 2010 roadtrip through a captivating country, just before the instant rush that became last years fever album and subsequent when in doubt label launch. based on field recordings taken in various bustling city centres, rugged desert landscapes, peaceful cornfields, lively amphitheatres, abandoned villages and ancient temples, the ep’s four tracks capture glimpses of jordans stark and desolated scenery as well as its warm and vivid spirit, channelled and reinterpreted through a simple recording device and a sampler. we hope you enjoy the results as much as we enjoyed travelling.
support from: efdemin (dial), marcel dettmann, morphosis, james holden, four tet, ben ufo, mary anne hobbs, martyn, serge (clone) faltydl & appleblim

slaming deep 4 track ep

das neue kraak & smaack album mit vocals von u.a. den legenden romanthony & lee fields!

300 copies, vinyl only, authentic, raw, underground. the second offering from laak on their austere imprint is another defined four tracker. >back of beyond< kicks things off, a sincere heads down jam combining latin percussion elements with a killer bass line and warm chords. the second track, >dont ever leave< is a heartfelt lament on the feeling of loss, slowing the tempo down, this one is deep! on the flip, >cosmic causeway< offers something a little different although keeping with the warm pads, this time the use of a spaced out trumpet keeps things flowing. the remaining track >cantankerous emotions< is a little different as regards to the beats, but loses none of the soul and profoundness of the other tracks. only for the underground soldiers!

der wiener produzent & synthie-zauberer dorian concept veršffentlicht sein brainfeeder-lonplayer-debŸt! seit der vešffentlichung seines albums joined ends im jahr 2014 trat dorian concept Ÿberall auf, von glastonbury Ÿber s—nar bis hin zu moma ps1 s warm up, und bewegte sich fortan bewusst unterhalb des radars. seither hat er die zeit damit verbracht, sich von seinem eigentlich wunderbaren produktionsprozess zu verabschieden und stattdessen einen brandneuen sound zu entwickeln, mit dem so niemand rechnen kann. inspiriert vom eklektizismus zahlreicher musikgenerationen (60er-jazz, 70er-fusion, 80er-neo-prog-rock, 90er-electronica), versuchte dorian concept, moderne musikelemente mit altmodischen methoden zu replizieren, live zu spielen und tŠuschend digitale klŠnge im dienste einer ironischen parodie der nostalgie aufzunehmen. erwartungsgemŠ§ ist das ergebnis aller kalkulierten und konzeptuellen †berlegung zum trotz erfrischend unprŠtentišs: schwindelerregende crescendi, kakophone brŸche und formidable rhythmen sind sowohl fachkundig produziert als auch kindlich, hyperaktiv und hyperfokussier
