juan atkins returns to r&s on a model 500 solo mission. the last model 500 single enlisted the help of the live line up that includes detroit techno royalty mike banks and ur alumni mark taylor, but this latest release is just juan in the studio and back at his best. >control< is vintage model 500, the classic electro that atkins pretty much invented, with his treated vocals riding over the crisp rhythm programming, dark basslines and detroit synths. >the messenger< on the flip is a moodier affair, with the liquid synths almost running away with themselves over the rough beats. model 500 and r&s has proved to have been a classic combination over the years and this release is one to file next to the classics.

the albums >nouvelle chair< and >echantillodrome< established lilea narrative as a mainstay of electro hip hop in france. lilea narrative now hammers it home with new ep >feline boulevard<. by dint of the experience gained playing live at over 100 concerts in europe, and after sharing the spotlight with rjd2, antipop consortiun, buck 65, brother ali and roots manuva, the artist has sharpened his style.

next up on nang we-re honoured to introduce -2am- the new ep by sheffield scenester producers hiem along with another of the cities finest fellows- phil oakey of the human league. the original track is a synth pop powerhouse about those twilight club nights that you never wanted to end- complete with a epic guitar solo- computer blips and glistening synth rushes. oakey is as accomplished as ever- bringing his signature tones to full effect and it-s nothing short of sensational. to accompany- we-ve enlisted the skills of four producers to give us some cracking remixes. fernando and toomy disco are first up- and they ramp up the tempo and vibe for a loose -n- live rework that-s perfect for the dance floor. hiem themselves give it a go with his -1984 rework- bringing 80-s power drums- van halen solos and some atmospheric subtleties to the table. nang-s italian uber-cool-cat brioski steps up next giving us the italian angle with a brilliant walking bassline and luscious wide mix. the heels of love bring us frivolous percussion and stomping disco beats layered between emosh pads and slick keys. ace. to finish- our good friends free school take things down a notch for a beautiful leftfield excursion that only they could pull off.

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.

ohne schummelei und overdubs: erstes livealbum der berliner metal-punks.

amazing release! tom ellis introduced to the scene in 2003, with releases on mindtours and morris-audio citysport, he enveloped himself in the world of electronic music and embraced the technology behind it. the natural progression was to setup a label, which he did with his best friend leif, along with the support of his brother joe and other close friends who inspired him so much. his recent live project with leif, co-founder of trimsound, has taken him all over the world headlining some high profile club nights in tokyo, cologne, munich, budapest, amsterdam, rotterdam, leeds, bristol and more. florian scheibein & alexander wirth are the two heads behind this new lovely imprint. also working as production duo they deliver a timeless masterpiece with >material of silence<. b-side - just check it out!

the long awaited sequel to the groundbreaking >live for never< lp from new zealand electronic wonderkid consequence is completed and scheduled for a dec 19th release on exit records. the release of >live for never< reminded the electronic world of the intricacies and emotional heights of drum & bass, and carried the genre into new realms of sonic possibility. >test dream< is not for those who expect the next logical evolution of >live for never<. it is also not for the unadventurous, nor for those who seek easily digestible music. creatively free, consequence revels in pure electronic experimentation, and the result is an album that follows no rules, and explores fractal dimensions that defy conventional genres.

played and supported by lucy,speedy j, perc , samuli kemppi, colin dale, inigo kennedy, jeroen search, markus suckut, dadub, freddy k, dasha rush, electric indigo, cari lekebusch, arnaud le texier, audio injection, drumcell and more. kript 001 is the beginning of a journey that brings together the sounds and the processing of electronic and experimental music with many influences of techno music as the concept of the label indicates. the tracks follow a numbering 01 / 02 / 03 / 04. there are no pre-defined templates and references. the freedom to use analog sounds like a live session. a quality and experimentation that are many years of study for this dark ken karter.

this ep written some year and one half ago at beautiful granville studio features 3 dance selections, which includes the title track, the drapes in the livingroom. also presented in dance form is the very long awaited shaquanda, which is often played in my live sets. here, we have the original and first recording of the track. last, i am presenting bedroom music, which is a track designed to be played in those private moments, as well as within nightclub confines. i simply hope that youll find the bump in this one

a one-off release from james and karl here showcasing chunks of their killer live set from a recent london gig. the a-side is basically a brilliantly executed and bass heavy mashup of ruskins classic track work alongside the much loved blunted rhythms of kalons man is the superior animal.in contrast the b-side is a great intro/outro beatless tool.

last summer hey blop (live series vol ii) was the hymn that burned down dancefloors all over the world. gabriel ananda continues his live series (here vol. iii) and delivers 2 more sophisticated techno-tracks with diabolic methods.

back 2 back is built around a spontaneous live jam by dj pippi, tucillo and kiko navarro in dj pippis studio on ibiza. in a few hours they had finished the track. the ep opens with tucillo and willi graffs dub, a muscular, driving, stripped down rework of the original for a popping dance floor. kokis back dub is also a floor tool that has been well tested this summer by kiko navarro with great results. the ep finishes with a very cool afriki soul remix by bhoddi satva.

deep house veteran john daly (wave, drumpoet, plak & mule, feel music) delivers, with two epic tracks recorded to tape in one take using live hardware. the a-sides haze mix features expansive mind bending synths unfurling over 20 pulsating minutes into an ebbing, cascading dub-trance masterpiece. the b-sides aerosol mix redirects the intensity to the floor with relentless beats & crashing claps complementing the extra melancholy synth refrain on a bin-rattling 45rpm cut.

in 1973 focus were at their peak! they simultaneously had two top 10 albums (focus 3 (movlp022) and moving waves (movlp023)) and two hitsingles (sylvia & hocus pocus). all of the musicians were voted as top 10 musicians in each of their categories. jan akkerman was voted worlds best guitarist. with a live reputation that proved focus lived up to these best musicians claims, the right thing to do was to release a live album: focus at the rainbow. (fact: on the night of the recording, due to the demand for encores, focus ran out of pieces to play!)

ramona is pretty nervous to welcome a new name to her ever-growing happy family. in fact, its actually an old band member. christian beisswenger alias cb funk alias one half of arto mwambe is not exactly one you would call a stranger. for >77 reasons< he debuts as the citizens band with some novel sounds on risky grounds. in love with details, fragile sounds, little tricks and with a fine ear for the action, the band leader tiptoes into deep bleepy house just enough to call >west 42nd< exactly that. >77 reasons< however plays around with a memorable little melody, a skanking lead and some boom sonics. whatever you want to call it, ramona is fine with it. orson and kane would be proud.

now with lovingly remastered audio, extensive liner notes, and unpublished photos, this double l.p. set gives you both of the aforementioned rarities and the best of overton berry - that is, if you havent had the good fortune of seeing the man play live. still performing his trademark blend of standards, thoughtful interpretations, and original compositions weekly in-and-around seattle, if you find yourself music hungry in the pacific northwest, you just might have a chance. berry is still doing his thing with the utmost respect and dedication to his craft.lp limited to 1000 copies.

a very high quality production for wonder wet records. on the second release, we reset, the dj/producers duo from the capital, well known for their overwhelming live sets, makes its debut.

brandt brauer frick haben wieder zugeschlagen. im vergangenen jahr debütierte das deutsche trio mit dem album >you make me real<, einer fusion aus techno und klassik. doch tracks wie >bop<, ein reichhaltiges, polyrhythmisches gebilde, zeigen, dass es geht. nun haben daniel brandt, jan brauer und paul frick ihr genre-bildendes experiment mit ihrem ensemble auf ein neues level gehoben: die computer haben sie eingetauscht gegen eine zehnköpfige band, mit der sie handgemachte dance-grooves live spielen können. wie das klingt, haben sie in diesem jahr bereits bei der eurosonic conference in holland gezeigt, dann in coachella, beim festival glastonbury, sonar, north sea jazz und bestival! der neue, handgemachte klang wurde nun auf einem brandneuen album festgehalten.

stephane signore delivers an excellent record called >we live in a world of ba57ard ep< chordy and firm techno that will rock in venues with good soundsystem. with long an well constructed builds on the opening track called bad trip. this is a vinyl that will no doubt get support from larger names in the industry. the second track is the stanny franssen remix of ba57ard. this is a nice rolling remix with a lot of dynamics and way more uplifting that the original. for the 3rd track on the ep we find this original piece. this is a very deep somewhat chaotic production, this might just be the eps winning track. with a strong arrangement and little vocal edits this will no doubt get played alot. for the closing track we have got >paranoid< the title covers the load, strong dark techno music that will rock your world.

for renaissance mans first single off their turbo debut lp, we have assembled a team of remixers whom we felt could live up to the playful intelligence of the original. the result is a pack befitting one of the best electronic albums of the year, a mensa-level dissection of contemporary dance music that builds on the finnish duos previous releases on dubsided, sound pellegrino and made to play.
to begin with, we enlisted a personal hero of the renaissance man boys - legendary producer herbert - who offers up a subtle, atmospheric take, adding his own vocals and introducing an esoteric pop sensibility. scottish producer (and thom yorke name-checkee) sei a checks in with a hypnotic techno groove bomb. uk vet paul woolford strikes a balance between wobble acid and melodic piano hooks.

as much as track names end up being slightly more than tags and guidelines for searches in the digital era of music in which we live today, the name of the title track says a lot about the intentions behind the artwork. in the case of >the classic age<, it can be considered a homage to the influences that nourished rotcivs career throughout the past years.

early support : laurent garnier, funk d’void, miguel migs, jimpster, danny krivit, lovebirds, matthias voigt, phil weeks, lee curtiss, grant nelson, nick holder, luke solomon, rob mello, roberto rodriguez, jef k ... the title track life live is a gorgeous deep house number, in pure shur-i-kan tradition. you can really hear toms amazing keyboard skills and great musical legacy. lastly, we have one10, a slower track with a balearic feel to round up what we think is one of the best record we heard so far this year.

fresh up specialise in strictly limited edition 45rpm singles showcasing the finest in new-old-sounding library funk, moog disco and vocoder boogie sounds. fresh up boss ed dmx returns with two low-tempo vocoder funk jams. >funky dancer< on the a side is pitched halfway between zapp and kraftwerk with an ice-cold metronomic electronic backing underpinning some funky vocoder singing and live tambourine. >that wild and freaky robot funk< features more live percussion over a much warmer sleazy funk joint with more soulful vocoder action

rather lightweight live album, only thirty four minutes long, three songs and some painful applause herding for an encore. the line-up is essentially the girls line-up, though john g. perry s been replaced by an also-excellent mike wedgwood. the production is clear but the mix misjudged: the admittedly nicely brought out bass sound dwarfs all other elements. in particular, pye hastings guitar is very low, the drums never seem to match the bass volume.

soul jazz records subsiduary electronic label microsolutions to megaproblems celebrates two years of releases with this new album. microsolutions to megaproblems brings together many of the finest experimental electronic artists working in their respective fields today – whether it be electronica, avant hip-hop, twisted disco, deep jazz and more. this album features tracks from all the earlier 12 inch releases plus unique exclusives for this album. established electronic-pioneers such as kit clayton, kid 606 and sutekh are present alongside west-coast left-field hip-hop/beat-heads daedelus and ammon contact. from the uk, underground remixer to the stars radio slave, a/k/a rekid (kylie minogue, paul macartney!), tech-disco artist secondo (with a unique to this album acid mix), a.greenman are featured alongside exclusive new music from tim exile.

the new age sound of frankfurt! hot on the heels of massimiliano pagliaras praised album debut focus for infinity youll find a neat 12inch of top-quality remix action. first up, frankfurts version of a young peter daou aka phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus) and running backs gerd janson (who spend a big deal of his youth trying to perfect a weak bobby konders mimicry) team up as tuff city kids. offering two takes, pagliaras >a wrong chance< gets split into a sweet layer cake of bass, synths, strings and for those who are faint at heart, an additional riddim version provides hidden acid fantasies. upside down, oliver hafenbauer and christian beisswenger (arto mwambe fame again) keep on exploring their sharp electro funk under their b.h.v.f moniker. with a playtime that exceeds nine minutes, you get right twists and wicked turns and most of all sounds unheard. modern music with an old-fashioned style of lovin.

the intermezzo ep kicks off with we are here, which could be easily described as get out part 2. a spoken word vocal over kerris trademark beats and instrumentation, musing on the subject of a busy schedule and calways available technology. so it begins again takes things down a much more tribal road, perfect for a big room, and the dc10 mix is a nod towards the direction kerri had in mind and the dancefloors he created this track for. the dark mix takes this idea even further with a more progressive feel as the track plays out. red lights explores a more live drum feel with a cut-up breakbeat playing a 4/4 rhythm, and a throbbing bassline and synth pattern. this one is a little deeper but still packs plenty of punch!

acid jazzs rare mod series is a collection of vinyl eps, compilation albums and books that shines a light on the forgotten side of the british mod scene.
