antlers mulm has been sending his melancholy songs and soundscapes into the world for many years now… some years ago one song was featured on the “radio resistencia” compilation (et001) and finally there is this 7 inch on enfant terrible… the two tracks are coming from the last album “touring the moon bog” which was released on cd and tape earlier this year… both tunes featured on vinyl here are the most up-tempo and rhythm driven ones from that album… recommended to fans of solitude fx but also those who are into new order… it is all melancholy, dreamy and catchy… what else could you wish for?

if you love contemporary minimal music, then you are certainly familiar with the greek artist stathis leontiadis. with his bands human puppets, exetix and plexiglas this musician became one of the stars of the genre. now he is back with doric. with this solo project he already released a single and an album on fabrika and a 10- on domestica. the new release is once again a 10-, this time on peripheral minimal. doric uses a special concept. the a-side is the so-called asleep side and is about loneliness: music that sounds paranoid. sleep of reason is almost unbearable, it s madness driven by minimal electronics. everything is very danceable, but this is the dance of madness. the minimal sound comes straight from the 80s. over my dreamssounds a bit like the early parade ground. simply great! head against the wall (a title that needs little explanation) is slow and compelling.

nice price deal !!! together as sycophant slags, mr. c and adultnapper began their sonic journey several years ago after a week long studio session in nyc. during that time three shared a car ride with mr c with the tracks of that session as the soundtrack and the dharma fields release was born. along with crawl up. two tracks that continue to sound as timely as they are timeless! more recently the slags have released standouts on get physical, their massive remix of reverse commuter - southern charge (also on hallucination limited) and possibly their biggest track to date --- keep off --- on poker flat recordings which sees mr c returning to the mic in a sublime style thats rocked dance floors the world over.

synthy euphoria, grimey reverse wired kick science and some bubblebath era afx style musings..curious release. tip!

they say you have your whole life to make your first album, years upon years of growth, learning and experience filtered into one perfect record. your debut is supposed to be the one you labour over, while the follow-up is meant to be served up within spitting distance of the last. well, not if you’re london based wild palms. “we did that in reverse,” explains the band’s sardonic, quick-witted frontman lou hill. “the first album was just the songs that we would play live, we wrote it really quickly. but this one took ages...” five years in fact.
recorded by the band in the same self-built manor house studio where they made their 2011 de-but ‘until spring’, the new album ‘live together, eat each other’ is a lusciously layered offering of hazy experimentalism and off-kilter alt-pop, that follows in the auspicious lineage of beach house, cocteau twins and tv on the radio.

reversed is the fourth album from french composer / sound designer franck zaragoza and his ever-expressive ocoeur nom de plume. the opening swell and passionate piano that precedes it sets the tone for what could very well be zaragoza s most personally ardent set of compositions to date. zaragoza thoughtfully augments his modern solo piano compositions with creative, some might even say organic, sound design and meticulous melancholic string harmonies. reversed is without a doubt a truly personal listening experience meant to be absorbed again and again.

vdr009 - punta christo marks the debut artist ep of london techno duo our mutual friend.

youth isn’t usually associated with wisdom, or depth or complexity for that matter. most 22 year-olds are still figuring out how a washing machine works but in the case of howes (the solo project of manchester-based john howes) he’s making electronic music that is operating on innovative and experimental levels one might expect from a hardened career musician hitting their stride. having released a more house-oriented 12” on melodic a couple of years ago, his debut album proper is a record that is as expressive as it is cohesive. it’s a release that floats between nocturnal stillness and insomniac driven intensity. the shift, howes says, “comes from the forced and narrow nature of a lot of electronic music. most modern electronic music to me is too safe in terms of ambition, sound design and intention.”

a passion for techno has always run deeply through his music and under his trevino moniker he is also a powerful creative force (check his recent front album to get the full picture). here, he takes transmission breakdown on a magical excursion, filled with subtle, hypnotic, evolving energy, anchored with an irresistible pul- sating bassline throb - a perfectly synergetic interpretation to round off jona s sidetracking album prologue in style.

the fourth studio album „in the beginning“ by the critically acclaimed live band marbert rocel from leipzig. a place far away from everything, yet right around the corner. a vision close enough to touch, yet so far away. surrounded by keys, hatches, pots and small fragmented parts, marbert rocel lie down, discuss and dance through the winter of 2015. in this environment, in their studio in leipzig, the band ties together the songs, which first saw the light of day in a small spot enclosed by woods in the summer of 2014. ?each decision goes through every head, each chord is listened to a hundred times, from font to back and in reverse, each compromise: a triumph for the common cause. not pompoous string arrangements fuel this album with grandeur, but rather the notion of a consensual nod, which has evolved within marbert rocel over the years. ?“in the beginning” is the fourth album by marbert rocel, a living utopia and a tart kiss for every purist genre lover. nothing is hewn raw on here, rather sculptured delicately. percussion is tickling from synth pads like dew, and the songs welcome you like good friends. like tinkerbell, spunks voice guides through this strange familiar world, moving past big feelings and small gestures, to finally lead to where it all started: “in the beginning”.

the maghreban has been making some noise with his latest release on versatile wonder woman. rather than continuing along that disco-ish path, he changes tack as he returns to zoot with 3 tunes influenced by (but not identical to) different times from his teens. now easy is informed by those c. 93 dark jungle 12s he knew and loved. the dark stranger. don bad man. presha iii. the capsule ep. the video is a tribute to those and other records. not good is an innocent mess about wit...

the summer heat is still on our minds and we all do miss the sunny days, the beaches and the endless open air parties… thanks sascha dive for the right soundtrack and this summer flashback: dives new release for cocoon beams us back to the high days of the summer of 2015: especially into the woods seems to be the perfect sound for all these deeply missed summervibes. into the woods is a pristine tech-house production that comes with a cool straight forward beat programming, very nice reverse strings-sounds and hypnotic house chords. a nicely flavoured chicago club housefeeling and exactly how we like it! werewolf appears slightly more spaced out, however we are still deep in the house universe here. dive is pushing it a bit harder now - he uses crazy chord sounds and turns the track into an 11 minutetech house journey. after the summer flashback with into the woods this one beams us definitely more into the darker and hotter inner city clubs. a massive tech-house-striker by the diver and we are proud to say it is one of his strongest works so far!

colorhadoo makes his amphia debut with two enticing tracks while cristi cons delivers the house s remix. on the a side we are presented with * j strawbberry*, an atmospheric track which slowly slips away into a mind-bending realm, where broken voices come and go under different shapes and the listener is engaged by occasional eclectic explosions. a beautiful work and trouble waiting to happen when properly used. side b has cristi cons taking the interpretation duties of the main track. the remix keeps the general mood of the original with a twist, everything is wrapped around a tight groove with shattering low end work, ideal for those early mornings. we continue with * zanzibar*. this second track on side b takes the artistic vision into reverse. no more voices to be heard, huge spaces are reduced to just a solid groove. the track is guided by hypnotic pads and sounds while the emblematic percussion section is conducted by none other than colorhadoo himself. dont listen to this in the dark!

parisian artist nautil is a music student specialising in acoustics, signal processing, and informatics. his debut single, canopée, utilises analog synths, sampling and personal recordings to emphasize the geometrics of nature and music. on the a-side the lead track, canopée, is a cavernous, pulsing, low-frequency techno colossus destined to hypnotise dark warehouse spaces. on the reverse galdae is a propulsive tecnoid tweaker while mue is designed for head rolling after hours with mesmeric synth drones suspended over a brain melting sub-bass pulse.

kolour ltd #20 comes courtesy of closed paradise. having released on sleazy beats offshoot fools & fables and releases lined up on whiskey disco, vinyl addicted, and of course ours - there s plenty to be excited about in paradise. as an added bonus we ve invited in a duo that we ve been real big fans of as of late for some remix action. fresh off the heels of their blinding ep on dam swindles heist recordings - we are proud to welcome brame & hamo to the family! pressed on black wax.

co founder of one of our favorite labels of the moment how to kill detroit, knocked us over with his own trax recently, so we had to do a release with him. shady p brings us some prime detroit techno sludge with this ep.

matt karmil is one of the most favorite newcomer for us. after we have listened his debut track reverse peephole,we are overwhelming. we said masters at work meets ibiza, fight on a side is unique merodic raw house and kiss and make up is more uplifting but sweet techno house track. if you like the production of dj koze,you will love this release.

where his previous effort, 2014s *the hollow organ*, dealt in dense, distressed sonics, *olympic mess* is younger responding to a period spent engaged with loop-based industrial music, dub techno, and balearic disco. these musical references, all of which can induce hypnotic states and feelings of euphoria, inform ten evocative aural landscapes which unfurl over the course of an hour and act almost as a counterpoint to the turmoil that spawned them.

welcome to the dark side. where chaos is the constant, distortion forms the standard and frontiers are built out of opaque shadows. mumbling voices are hunting you through a maze of creepy synthesizer sounds. welcome to antifuse. with their latest release, the berlin-based duo nerkkirn are following their path of experimental techno sounds, this time leading into dark shades of whirring electronic sounds. by creating a gloomy, yet groovy tune, antifuse builds up a perfectly conductive path within the unique sound system of snork enterprises. like a mysterious rollercoaster, four versatile tracks are pulling you into a vague ride through various spheres of electronic sounds. starting off with high speed into the deep and gloomy mines of underground techno, dipode unfolds its dark side in full blast. moving forward, antifuse chases you upside down on a roaring bass line merging into electronichangover. there, in a reduced atmosphere of sound, subtle tunes still forcefully keep pushing you through an odd darkness until everything, then, flows into a slight glow at the end of the tunnel - reversebias.

turquoise blue recordings was founded with a simple aim: releasing house music that is deep, sometimes dark but always groovy and underground. it is therefore no surprise the label is now releasing an ep by finnish born producer, phonogenic. with previous releases on 20:20 vision, turbo, moodmusic and others, tuomas salmela aka phonogenic has spent most of his recent time in the studio where he is preparing his forthcoming album. despite this, he did find time to capture the true essence of turquoise blue with this brand new ep, bringing us three originals and a collaborative remix from canadian producers the mole and hreno. the ep will be released as a limited edition180g baby blue coloured vinyl with a full colour sleeve on reverse board

we are deeply proud of all our music here at hizou. our latest release, however, we believe is just that little bit special. because we welcome to the label a producer we much admire and also proudly call our friend, w & p hgg aka hugo giner, owner of the formidable cornuta sound imprint. and his ep, down for heaven, is notable also for marking the debut of a new partnership, the sons of empire, otherwise known as those two masters of the deep, ernie from minuendo recordings and dubbyman of deep explorer. it is giner’s unique soul, however, that takes centre stage with side one devoted entirely to its 13 minutes of glorious, irresistible and uplifting house odyssey. on the reverse comes welcome, a chunkier though equally hypnotic slab of sly deepness, ably supported by the sons of empire remix which takes the track to a more chilled and, dare we say, funkier celestial plane.

the phantom is older than you think, both figuratively and literally. his debut on vinyl was on *it s my mike* by the funky force 2 back in 1987 on amanda records. in 1988 he recorded as part of the group the force and recorded *the mission* with the producer powercut. he is probably best known for being one of the main mcs in cult group dynametrix, who released an ep in 1991 and an lp in 1994 called *a measure of force* on kold sweat records. he also appeared on three tracks on the unsung heroes lp *unleashed* as well as appearing with tom dice on *thug killer*.

we are proud to present the next thrilling release by co-owner pherox on slash! tims second ep named dmf-9-electric is a mixture of deep soulful and floor shaking electronic music. we call it the gentle side of techno, no wonder that one of the hottest artists in this scene john daly delivers a cracking remix to this 4-track ep. lets start with the first track road days which is dominated by deep rolling basses and floating voices creating a hi-tech energy peak time track. once you get the sudden effect of it, its gonna reveal the true freak in you, give it a try! the other title on the a-side called rude vox is a dark dream of liberty and a long voyage into the night. its clothed in moonlight and restless in wanting where the voices of children paired with strings, a ghost precedes us, a shadow follows us - each time we stop – we fall. the b-side starts with john daly s rework on the track shelter. the remix is a dark miracle of shiny blackness which has his own magic, while the sun sinks low, an h-bomb in reverse. john takes the key parts from the original track and raises them into a new context. techno-soul in its purest form. we, for one, are in ecstasy enthralled. can we convince you to smile? the whole ep ends up with the original one from pherox. the circular beat of shelter with its loaded flashy effects will heat up any dance floor for sure. boys and girls, its getting hot in here so take off all your.. or just keep doing whatever you want!

cyber dance records are back on the attack with a fresh release from the legendary perseus traxx aka nigel rogers, a 4-track ep entitled after recent scientific developments an apparent horizon . its a firmly machine-based and totally jam-packed affair reflecting diverse sounds from the uk s own rich history of electronic dance music, with elements from the classic warp -deep space sound- prominent as much as the more usual 303-jacking acid house grooves in the vein of baby ford or bam bam. lost dreams opens the record with a floaty dream-like hipnosis from the depths of space and sets the tone in magnificent style, followed up on side a with the irresistible roll of reverse the trend that takes the groove harder, further and deeperstraight off to the beyond. dark strings reminiscent of old lfo, b-12 or autechre vinyls from the early 90s propel us into side b on darkness stalks , and then we re transported onto the concluding track on the ep, distances , an epic closer that opens with beautiful reverbed claps and acid squelches before diving into an inky black void of timeless space-travelling and slow-building tension that could surely echo hauntingly around any m25 rave in the depths of a late 1980s night.
