feted kosmische synthesizer wizards from cleveland oh, emeralds, have never had any of their music remixed before. let alone having the title track from their acclaimed 2010 album reworked (twice) into a floor-filling behemoth by daphni (aka dan snaith aka caribou). >we toured together in 2010 and since then ie always wanted to play their music in my dj sets. so i did my own version of this track<, says snaith. >is one of those tracks that whenever i play it i can feel the energy in the room lift.< luckily emeralds were equally enthusiastic and so this unlikely hybrid see the light of day. …or rather the dark inside of a club.

the second edition of the mosso series adheres to its archetypal plan, as alejandro mosso leads us forwards on his musical trek and through the grooves carved onto this record. for this new number, alejandro mosso decided to delve back into his archives and take a closer listen to some forgotten, unfinished pieces. some listeners will surely recognise certain bits of this record as they were part of mossos live performance years ago. this is however the first time they will be edited and see the light of day. on the a-side, aconcagua is a festive theme on which a magnetic marimba riff turns into an escalating melody, surrounded by a forest of ascending percussions - characteristic of mossos production – lightly floating around it. cashmere, the flip, was conceived while airborne on a flying carpet, half way above the indian subcontinent and below the countles gleaming stars. perfect instance of alejandro mossos talent, it is a subtle blend of hovering winds and crystallized textures. the bansuri flute and the clave go hand in hand to form reassuring horizons, the soundtrack for a longer moment of hope, greater perspective and spiritual transformation.

romare is a young london to paris transient crate digger, collecting dusty snippets of undead voices and antiquated rhythms. once in his underground lab, these pieces of yesterday are chopped, spliced and reattached to create the sound of tomorrow. this ep explores the connection between the history of african and african-american culture in the form of collage to create musical conversations between the past, present and future.
samples of songs, speeches, interviews, field recordings and films were carefully chosen and rearranged: rhythms from africa are integrated with voices from harlem, conversations about race and identity between writers and ethnomusicologists are constructed, speeches from activists are conjoined with the voices of prisoners. this process of combining pre-existing material has inspired three >meditations on afrocentrism<.
in keeping with black acres genre dodging output, romares merging of traditional rhythms of africa with the contemporary tempos of footwork and house is a bridge between the tradition sound palette of africa and future dance rhythm.
support: untold, moxie, fantastic mr fox, jamie xx

though some only know the byrds for their covers, critics believe that they are amongst the most important and influential bands of the 1960s. their signature sound of clear harmony singing and jangling guitars combined well with the sounds of british invaders the beatles & the rolling stones, and they became the pioneers of folk rock, psychedelic rock, raga rock, and country rock.
the recording of the 1968 album >the notorious byrd brothers< in the heyday of the flower power age was nothing less than herculean, disputes over artistic direction & power struggles within the band meant that by the time recording was finished there were only two byrd-members left. the album was a labour of love, though, its more experimental and progressive than their previous works and is considered one of the best albums they made ...

this one is with morgan phalen, from a band called diamond nights that we love but went unnoticed 6/7 years ago. he lives in los angeles and we had him come over to paris to record. we wrote the lyrics with him and tried, as always, not to sound too stupid, avoiding clichés like come to the dancefoor, but without pretending to be bob dylan either. our lyrics are always a bit quirky. if they sound good and theres a little edge or something fun to them, were happy.

when no one is watching ramona, is usually listening to future times records and beautiful swimmers all days. maxmillion dunbar is not only half of those aquanauts, but also running the label and releasing music as max(million) d(unbar). what a guy! hanging out in the vague territory between slow-motion house with a hip hop feeling or dubby and dubious fun music, his melodious approach is extremely hard to categorize but all the more enjoyable. >polo< already saw the light of day on >max trax for world peace<, but ramonas favorite dj ata and live at robert johnson manager oliver hafenbauer were so much in love with the bleepy bonbon that they offered it a place by their fireside. now cautiously modified, fine-tuned and extended for its label home, its a rainforest serenade for beatnik boys and girls, with all the ingredients you want from tha d. the only kid able to thrown down the gauntlet in front of maxi is frankfurts melody man phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus, etcetera etcetera). turning >polo< into one of his trademark sluggish bass line barrage tracks with falsetto synths and sharp snares. get your vogue brogue out.

between 1978 and 1984 can as a group were utilising the innerspace studio in cologne less frequently in order to search for new ways to develop their sound and creativity. however drummer jaki liebezeit and holger continued to record and experiment at the studio and czukay considers this time as the most fruitful and creative period they spent together. born from this time was >secret life< and >in space< and these are presented on a white vinyl disc in a fantastic full colour thick card sleeve. limited & hand-numbered!

after two smoldering releases on figure & spc, roberto bosco is back for his third offering for len fakis spc imprint. a future-classic 4 track techno ep, with more than enough to keep the peak time floors happy, this is big room music at its most intelligent and sensitive. easing us into the thick of it, charming noise takes humming, rumbling bass tones and a metallic clang as its themes. slow burning and readily effective, its a brooding monster for the late hours. i just cant breathe pushes the adrenalin up a few notches in a screaming, white noise attack on the senses. boscos trademark heavy bass rumble and crisp percussion layers hold their own in this reduced killer. were then ready to embark on an emotional voyage as the masterful see the light emerges from the depths with its pushing acid bass and beautiful atmospheric melody. classic strings and synths swirl and build in a tender and heartfelt piece of timeless techno. closing the ep, i was lonely takes the vibe into more reduced, after-hours zones with robertos cool and low-slung take on the smoother sound of futuredeep house.

were you able to touch them – to render them tangible and actually trace the rhythms in yachts i walked alone – the lines would form steep hills and sudden cliffs that rise and drop off, again and again, at steep, sharp angles. the wiry funk and itchy bass move like a controlled spasm, convulsive and itchy, until the breakdown, when the nervous tension gets released in a series of cowbell clunks and a guitar solo that leaks out like a slow moving electric current. on this vinyl only collection of remixes, parisian duo get a room!, aka rove dogs and jeff masson, massage out the herk and jerk, making for a more relaxed and aurally warm take. the sound of things is far housier here – and more pop, in the very best way – owing to synths where there previously were none and angles newly bent and refashioned into smooth, circling cycles of disco-infused sound. and theres more from jacques renault, who contributes a remix both with and without vocals. the new york city dance music stalwart takes his time building to a plateau of perfectly paced beats and a wall of recurring dream(y) house rhythms. feels like music that fills the room, takes over your senses, and wraps you in its effervescence. - kali holloway

the detroit area artist/producer once called ibex is no more. due to other artists copying the ibex brand, tony ollivierra will now be recording as his real name under his new label northside district. this first release demonstrates a continued appreciation for the roots of electronic music, with several of these tracks sounding like they were buried in a time capsule back in 1987, and unearthed after marinating for twenty years or so. this should come as no surprise, since tony has been producing tracks for about that long.

for a while it was the perfect label… no,were not (yet) talking about gomma from munich,also an excellent address. this is about the legendary company casablanca records&filmworks from hollywood who during the second half of the 70s literally skyrocketed and played an essential part in shaping modern disco music. besides scoring some mega successes with their famous leading acts donna summer, kiss und village people, casablanca revolutionized the development of electronic dance music like no other label.
