mit dem 8ten, von gareth jones produzierten album kehrten erasure 1997 zu den klassischen “3-minuten-synthie-pop-stücken” zurück. die brandneue vinyl-auflage von “cowboy” ist 180g schwer. der schlicht “erasure” betitelte vorgänger hatte einige fans irritiert. die produktion von thomas fehlmann (the orb) und der einsatz von gastsängerinnen wie diamanda galas überforderte ihr publikum. hier unter der leitung von gareth jones (depeche mode, fad gadget) ist mit hits wie “in my arms” die welt wieder in ordnung. erasure feierten mit der albumveröffentlichung wieder den einzug in die deutschen top 40.

four tracks, four producers. one label regular, three new recruits. four different takes on the deep house sound that we know and love here at pft. label regular/boss goshawk kicks things off with the dubby slo-mo house grooves of take you home which has a raw hypnotic disco inflected groove complete with chopped up vocals. serious biznizz. tatsu (aka dj isaac indart from the puro crew in palma, mallorca) offers up the bumping deep vibes on walk away - think snapping snares, square wave basslines and sunkissed pads. warm. tim tonal is most notably known for being part of the alphadogs, whose incredible bonelicker ep on diy is an all-time free party classic. he supplies another sure fire party starter with love what u feel , nottingham soundsystem house at it s finest finally, coming straight out of bordeaux is leon revol (apersonal) with the sublime tape loop - a rolling, locked in groove with a fantastic arrangement which keeps the groove interesting throughout.

returning to music is love after his 2 sell out records is the man liam geddes, and we think this time we ve caught him at his purest. this ep is absolute fire! his 3rd outing for the label is a deep and dubby affair but with a musicality and rhythm thats going to make this one popular with a wide range of djs.

drawing on a rich well of influences from sufi and shamanic african trance music, irish and eastern european folk music, to steve reich and philip glass and more contemporary electronica influences, their music is built around deceptively simple sounding ideas that are lent power through the use of repetition and rhythmic loops. they have been compared to both portico quartet and gogo penguin for the way in which they navigate the choppy waters between contemporary dance music and jazz.

one of kompakt s most mythical entities, superpitcher has always followed a thoughtful and rarified release policy, rather honing a record until it s perfect (and risking longer periods of time in between outings) than rushing it out, its a release rhythm that suits his idiosyncratic approach to dance music, not so much churning out floor fodder than creating timeless classics on his own terms. as one of our longest-serving artists, he has still managed to build an impressive portfolio, especially if you consider the ratio of iconic tracks per release. it s no wonder, then, that at any given time, a big part of his back catalogue seems to be sold out. five years after the highly acclaimed, award-winning full-length kilimanjaro (kompakt 222 cd 80), it is time to revisit superpitcher s unique body of work with so far so super, an enticing selection of some of his most cherished cuts - acting as our 2016 vinyl offering for this year s record store day, it collects highlights from all stages of his career, the underground club bangers as well as the conceptual album work. from opener jackson (as featured on pop ambient 2012) and early successes like heroin, baby s on fire (from total 4) or total confusion/speicher anthem i walk to signature tracks like happiness or rabbits in a hurry, you ll find lots of magical moments to unearth or rediscover - all in one jam-packed, gorgeously wrapped vinyl release that no serious fan of electronic dance music should miss out on.

benedikt frey crafts a musical aesthetic that (much like the esp institute) might only be seen in its true form from a birds-eye view—a whole greater than the sum of its parts. his playful indifference to genre specifics and pre-prescribed instrumentation or production techniques makes for a loose and refreshing collection of work, and this debut for the esp institute, the lobbyist, serves up an incongruous three tracks so bewildering and narcotic we’re already impatiently fiending for more. on side a, the title track is no less than a medieval assault. led by a stomping war drum and a blasting bass synth that might literally have caught the studio on fire, an erratic array of clanking percussion, hi-hats and cymbals push us into a sinister corner where his whispering chant grants us the smallest bit of humanity before continuing with the beating. on side b, cupids delight (ft tcb) and gravel both explore variations on beauty—the former in a blur of ghost-like vocals smeared in harmony across a low-slung machine drums, and the latter evoking a tropical affair gone psychedelic, complete with drawn-out disorienting marimba and ritual clave/tom arrangements. welcome home brother benedikt, what took you so long?
