reissue , phat nyc house anthem

8 years have passe since “isam” - now amon tobin is back with “fear in a handful of dust”.

breakage continues his excellent run of releases on his own label with the liff up ep. the fourth release showcases the different shades within the current index aesthetic, confidently showing you can recontextualise definitive jungle and drum & bass sound palettes by avoiding throwback cliches and keeping to a consistently high production value. the label has been a runaway success for breakage, a place where he can make and release the sound closest to his heart and the results have shown that this is the perfect place for the storied producer.

charles duff and daniel fisher have known each other since well before their respective forays into dance music. they serendipitously crossed paths at some point in the early 2010s with mutual friends in the nyc club kid scene. shortly thereafter they realised they both were keen to ditch the vapid hipster bullshit that had fueled their early careers thus far in order to pursue something pure: techno. mind you, this was at a time when it was not terribly cool to be into underground dance music. if anything, they both were greeted with massive skepticism from their peers but that didn t ultimately deter them. both went from relative obscurity to regular slots at berghain. and for two american kids musing in a pathetic bedroom studio, this was nothing short of a dream come true. a prophecy had been fulfilled. the two tried their hands at numerous attempts at collaboration over a 5 year period but nothing seemed to stick. most of it sucked horrendously according to them. but not on this occasion. the stars finally came into alignment and they were able to execute a concise group of tracks that finally made sense together. which brings us to threads. threads, an homage to the uber-dystopian bbc docudrama from the 80s, sums up their dynamic approach to tracks. it s an alienating, sinister take on techno that somehow manages to not fully lose faith in dire times. much like life today.

meda fury welcomes tom wrankmore aka eliphino to the imprint for a stunning ep of thunderous breaks, 303’s and serious sub-bass pressure. hailing originally from the leeds, but with wider travels to settle down in both london and berlin, wrankmore’s music embraces hip-hop, rave, and uk garage. he now serves up a pungent confection pitched between the hessle audio crew, joy o and demdike stare’s most recent efforts. having released heaters for brownswood and hoya hoya over the years, eliphino now debuts as part of the meda fury family with the realistic sex ep. wrankmore has been locked away in his studio for the last 1.5 years, abstaining from gigging and releasing records to knuckle down and produce, emerging with a new darker edge and a much more hardcore sound. tom explains: “the theme of the ep is trusting your intuition in an information flooded world. i’ve collaborated with visual artists tom pounder & jon harris who have created two videos for the release, one for disc rhythm and one for realistic sex.- meda fury boss nick williams, “tom s new music epitomises to me what modern club tracks should sound like - wild, energetic, deadly. he’s discovered his own dark new world of sound fusing breakbeat, acid, speed garage and even industrial stylings”

epic house tune ! must have !

when thse two heavy weights, friends and legends of electronic club music finally and after all the years team up the result can only be something fresh, unheard and inspiring. gui boratto from sao paulo and robert babicz from cologne have produced this hooky house tune with that certain melodic something you can t get out of your ears anymore. the flip side comes along with that special babicz italo beats which beam you back to rimini in 1983. hot beat alert!!!

texan / mexican neighbours, the silver rider and the funk district hold hands in disco diplomacy that will break down any wall. what a time to be alive: 20 years ago, these would have been buried on the b-side, but in 2019 they rock down the house of the largest of clubs.

linkwood s debut album system from way back in 2010 finally gets a timely reissue on his own imprint night theatre. fresh with a new two colour screen printed sleeve and a couple of track changes, the album (in his own words) is how it should have looked and sounded the first time around , occupying an important transitional space between the highly collected early firecracker 10-s and the crafted linkwood sound of today.

initially a duo formed in berlin, fith have since multiplied and expanded to become a revolving collective of musicians and poets spread out across a paris/manchester/berlin axis

the subversive electronics duo is back at it again for the sixth release on planet euphorique. ambien baby brings you another slab of total sonic disorientation, the good kind the one that invites you to dance, but also questions the stifling boundaries of genre within electronic music. dreaming up a sound that welcomes confusion and experimentation over the tried and true. here we have a spectrum of colour and vibes electro, experimentalism, and primal sensibilities mash and clash in an odd harmony that begs the question, where are we now?

galaxians golden armageddon on natural sciences pulls at the virus that is lodged deep within the collective consciousness of mankind. a record challenging our ideas of bounty and material wealth by placing the human race in the palms of blood-sucking cultural institutions. institutions such as big pharma, religious mega-structures, consumer trends and tax schemes which have worked to reduce human behaviour to fetishised objects and de- humanised masses. it s a record that pulls away the shackles, asking for a new trail of thought through de-programming. electro pulses for enlightenment. get woke.

a prelude to their upcoming second studio album, scar present the hide in plain sight ep on metalheadz. now 5 years deep into their collaborative project, survival & script have continued to forge their own sound resulting in an illustrious back catalogue most could only dream of. the hide in plain sight ep is a fitting addition, encompassing some of their best work yet with 4 tracks primed for the dancefloor.

a miramar is a place from which you can see the ocean. the bolero group, miramar, chose this word as their name to evoke a place of peace, reflection and solace for a broken heart. even the bolero, a romantic music born in cuba in the 1800s, might have been conceived by the seaside. in the 50s and 60s it became the quintessential musical expression of romance in latin america. it is this era of the music from which miramar draws their inspiration. urgencia (or urgency), tells of the desperation a heart feels when it is swept away by romance, but risks all for fear of not having another chance at love. the flip, salida means a way out. it is a song about the surrender that comes after trying to break free from the darkest of places, of endless frustration and sadness. the lyrics allude, but never tell.

rare & unreleased ska recordings from federal records vaults, 1964-1965.

the thibideau brothers were a big source of inspiration for us in the last two decades, so we feel deeply honoured that mark also accepted the invitation to join the label. his love and mastery for analogue and hardware synthesizers led to a feature in the famous documentary >i dream of wires<, alongside matt. however this is one of the most important reasons why his sound is so mature and deeply touching. on the first side we have a punchy deep house track that effortlessy blends the synth bass with melodious dream elements. flip the record and dive deep with the wonderfully spacey chords from blue rose dub.

once upon a time, the footjob crew moved into a new studio space in their hometown darmstadt. this location was previously used by a religious community that found its purpose in the worship of shiloh. phonk d and sascha ciminiera have somehow absorbed the spirit and created this ep as if by magic. in order to enjoy this spiritual journey even more, they asked johannes the wizard albert for his support. he was immediatly hooked, threw a few herbs together and brewed them a tasty remix

from a fascinating yet relatively undiscovered era of experimental music in peru s capital city lima, this never before released split single features two of the foremost musical minds of modern day tropical, electronic and ambient roots music. one song each was plucked from the archives of mutual friends los palteados (tomas tello) & la sonora roza (efraín rozas / la mecanica popular), offering a rare glimpse into the musicians respective productions and group projects at the onset of the 21st century. the pair of selected recordings each have their own hypnotic sensibility, yet both remain blissfully approachable experimentations in the beloved styles of cumbia & descarga.
