gatefold double coloured vinyl lp version. this is the debut album by producer rodden von ast, the man from mecklenburg vorpommern. von ast isn t new to the business. his last two releases and his own imprint sumpfsee records putting him right into the spotlight. on the altkamp album the busy producer finds time to entertain you with eight stellar tracks on the vinyl version, which come across as well-structured little stories, drowning the dancefloor. all in all sounds that are unmistakably in the family of or are related to the enchanted moments we know from kalkbrenner but as well as techno moments. the opener „altkamp- is a restlessly inventive bricolage of unconventional sounds and textures. -bettfett- is a masterclass in crisp, high-definition techno, as christal synths, a solid kick, and an insistent bass stab form a deeply hypnotic groove. -gedeih and verderb- with mate herr maarec draws on spacious arrangements of dub techno elements, burnished with snickering percussive repetition and scything synths. „unser klonet - is a spacey burner that builds into an indisputable festival-rocker, complete with punchy claps, descending bass-line.

hardworking families return in time for the summer with some raw house and techno, a step up in tempo from the recent cosmic dub cassette promo. three tracks of deep grooves and a glimmering ambient reprise. straight from their south london studio to your turntable...don’t sleep on this one.

taking proto sites back to the hypnotic hardware methods of earlier releases like lutto lento, s olbricht and sentry, suspension ep makes things kaleidoscopic, raw, repetitive and asynchronous. high gain perishing delays gradually cook your brain while flerbing sci-fi reverberations crawl across the atmosphere. this five-track cassette mantra has a furry analogue outer crust barely containing its computer controlled acid consciousness. each tune has its own density and unique stripped back bass structure which carries the whole thing along, absorbing strange hissy elements as it rocks downstream. breaking through the mantle, sawtooth voices murmur foreign incantations, swinging loopy phrases come and go jamming their way into repetitive bass squelches all pressure cooked to the extreme.

o celebrate the 25th anniversary of ugkãs first album, get on down goes the extra mile, presenting it for the first time ever on vinyl. and 2-lp clear vinyl at that, giving the strutting, funky grooves the chance to really stretch out on your system. back in 1992, southern hip-hop was still proving to the world that it could sustain a fan base that was chiefly raised on rap from new york and la. the geto boys and 2 live crew had made strong cases by the earliest 90s, and pimp c and bun b were ready to make their own. most of the trunk-bumping bass comes from drum programs and basic sampling on these tunes in later years they would build their sound into something even fuller and deeper. self-produced with additional work from houston locals bernie bismark and shetoro henderson, the tracks here are minimal, slow and menacing, which matched their lyrical approach quite nicely. you can hear the beginnings of the groups true greatness in these early lyrical workouts ¹ several taken from the regional cassette-only ep the southern way that got them signed to jive with tales of street hustles, relationships and self-reliance in a world stacked against them. they may have been done early-on, but that doesnt mean they arent crucial to ugks legacy cases in point being the three singles: something good, a charismatic update to bill withers use me up, and pocket full of stones (the latter featured on the menace ii society soundtrack). beyond the singles, deeper cuts like iãm so bad, feels like iãm the one whos doin dope and cramping my style made it clear to the world that this crew had the attitude and charisma to make even bigger waves in the years to come.

drum roll, people! sl009 is on its way. the recipe has not changed: limited quantity, hand numbered / stamped records and superior music. we take you on a unique house journey to explore the texture of sound and the color of feelings, from raw to deep all the way down to acid, carried on our va format spaceship. onboard, four artists, yusuke and jimini part of -serie limitée- crew and two new comers panthera krause and monster heart driver who are joining the family.

you re alone and you close your eyes. don’t imagine figures of light, make the darkness conscious. it becomes deeper, not eyelids anymore, and then something is around you, but you can’t open your eyes, you’re deep inside them. merge into oneness, not bright above not dark below. something with has no echo. waves and motion, not space and time. if a tree falls in a forest where no one is listening, does it make a sound? there are no signs in the snow. why this dream of something cold? the world is blue at its edges, the colour of that which can never be possessed. blue flames, deep ice, twilight. how do you observe yourself without knowing that you’re looking? the other side of your face. why don’t you let the gap be a gap? i was afraid there was too much space. when you stop focusing the image appears. everything seen at once. turn yourself into a point to get behind the surface. a messenger between two worlds. the hidden meaning behind alchemy: to be born again. you’re not born into this world but out of it. travel by heat, words are too slow. sound knows how to get around edges, wiser than light.

uncle tom’s tune needs all its 13 minutes to develop, with the melodic pattern fading in and out the wobbly baseline, like hiding from the sci fi sounds scattered throughout the track. crafted to please crowds that enjoy to be cooked slowly, milly van illy takes it to a more dynamic pace, stiching the groove beneath the percussions and storing all the energy into the hi hats. as for lady gargara, we’re gratified with a twisted cocktail of chopped voices stuttering on broken drum loops.
uncommon as it may sound, drag and drob ep is here to add some spice to your record collection.

when phil evans conceived the very first catalogue number for blank state he wore short tight pants, a very wide, washed out aloha shirt and a pair of super big, super dark pilot sunglasses. what followed was the birth of the most wonderful, freakishly weird and trippy four tracks a label could wish for by a close friend and talented young producer.

segun bucknor fell in love with american soul music as a student at new york’s columbia university. otis redding, wilson pickett, sam cooke and ray charles hadn’t made much of a splash in africa at the time and when bucknor returned to nigeria in 1968, he was determined to bring the sound to a wider audience.
the result was brand of afro-soul that in turn became a proto-type of afrobeat. with his bands, the assembly and the revolution, he released a few politically charged tracks, but even with his energetic dance trio, the sweet things, turning up the heat, bucknor couldn’t compete with fela kuti.
