here comes the eight ball in the software pool game… the labels colour is black and the labels boss hd substance is kicking balls. once more a luscious and deep release: on a side >someone down< is a driving track, full of 808 percussion work out over a sub bass frequency reminder of the old lfo records, on top of liquid synth layers and bubbles, hds trademark sound, a sure winner. on the flip side silicon cut goes more dubby and basic channel infected, with aquatic synth stabs and a moving bass line perfect for sub woofer testing.. future and tradition in one pack. as a gift a one minute japanese speaking intro for those who understand life in tokyo. spring comes, take your copy and enjoy

the music is playful, ambitious, simple, complex, fun and melancholic and not at least. it is extremely animalistic. they have an album >animals< ready to drop in 2007. elephant s parade was played completely live with drum machines, synths and analogue sequencers. the duo like to record this way (compared to stuck infront of the computer) as they get more free in creating a specific and spontaneous feeling. here one might imagine a big gang of crazy elephants getting lost on a psychedelic parade. in the middle of the track things are getting a bit weird, perhaps too much amarulla fruit, which gives the second part its childish and naïve playfulness. on the flipside bird song has a dirty, noisy, trippy vibe with a little touch of basic channel sound. shake a tail feather !! played by anja schneider, karotte, tobi neumann, troy pierce, woody

>em.pulse< is the long-awaited new release from hanaus most innovative and respected techno producer, d. diggler aka andreas muegge !! it is a appetizing work of staggering genius which forges a very different path from his 1999 debut 12 boogiemonster and his albums >feel my heat< and >atomic dancefloor<. where >feel my heat< was an exaggerated dub influenced collage which was mainly driven by post basic channel sound, >em.pulse< is deconstructing the history of techno and reassembled it into a breathtaking tangle of modern minimal sound..

mark ernestus, one half of the basic channel, maurizio and rhythm & sound teams, inaugurates our series of reworkings of tracks from tony allens lagos no shaking album. marks mix is not a nowadays style remix, more an extended mix in the classical tradition headed by tom moulton, back in the days when francois kevorkian was his teaboy, and there was a cupboard in his office stuffed with studio one master tapes. marks disco dub is its dub

amazing deeper spacing and dubby minimal tech ep with great basic channel styled soundscapes !! i really love this one!!!

from a brief appearance on framed & formed 2 to a full-fletched techno ep on iron box music! rasmus hedlund impresses once again with his old-skool basic channel type techno. but not just chill and deep, but dance-floor jacking numbers that will impress anyone who is willing to bop their heads to great music but it wouldn't be an iron box release if deepness weren't represented. while oneside pumps like a pissed-off step mother, the other side explores the deep realm of techno, just like we've come accustomed from our friends in finland. watch out for rasmusà he brings the old back and makes it sound like it never left!!

back in stock.. great kompute minimal tech with chicago style influecend.. channel one, andrei morant, hidden variable and franky vega give the arguments !!!

absolutely superb 6-tracker of minimal techno with tracks ranging from basic channel minimalism to lush detroit techno to debnar s own slant on ghetto-tech electro if you only take a chance on one release in your order this week, make it this one

to commemorate our 10 year anniversary celebration, this new release comes in the form of our beloved deepchord presents echospace project. the set was recorded live at ghost in the sound on 05/26/2013 a few miles away from hart plaza. an official movement after party curated by the detroit paranormal society in association with echospace, and now re-mastered by rod modell. from the second the bass dropped, it stole the breath from the room! this duo started off as barely more than a rumor supported mostly by the continous scarcity of their records. the duo comprised of detroits rod modell and steven hitchell have spent nearly two decades producing low-key electronic music both bordering on the verge of myth. theyre considered by many the most noted producers operating in the dub-infused aftermath of the basic channel axis and all its myriad offshoots. once their critically-acclaimed the coldest season emerged on one the uk based modern love imprint, the curtain was unveiled and the sound of echospace was born. they ve often been coined the true heirs to the basic channel legacy but their work finds a home somewhere on the outskirts of the galaxy, where detroit soul ties to jamaican roots played through a tunnel in deep space. this evocative, immersive sound that is echospace was born out of a love and passion for analog circuitry, sound design, field recordings and non-conventional methods of recording. but its also work thats quintessentially building upon the detroit electronic scene where it was born, and that divine marriage of roots and vision make the work at once so highly considered, so pertinent and so timeless. this is the first new album from the echospace duo since the critically-acclaimed silent world (ost) 3lp/cd set dropped 5 years ago, it features live renditions of some of their classics as well as unreleased material. expect gorgeous plumes of sound deeper than the ocean floor, a rich analog tapestry made and performed in the heart of detroit, techno city!

uppermost will be releasing his upcoming album with a completely new perspective that should change the course of his career, expanding to a brand new pop oriented approach but keeping his french signature at the core of the project. his previous hit tracks flashback and beautiful light have already generated more than 27 million combined streams across platforms, while mercedes-benz selected uppermost single disco kids to be featured in their formula one advertising campaign and starz/encore chose another of his instrumentals for their 2018 tv spot only few weeks ago. uppermost is being closely followed by international media leading to great articles from influent press channels such as djmag, vice, complex, paper magazine, and famous radios such as bbc 1 and virgin. in addition to releasing music via his own independent label uppwind records, uppermost has released music through powerful labels such as sony and ministry of sound and done official remixes for dada life, lemaitre and crystal fighters. he has also already shared french festival solidayss stage with madeon, yelle, fakear and die antwoord.

say what you wanna say, but you have to give strahil velchev this: the manÕs a powerhouse. recording and playing live under the kink alias, he went on to become one of finest purveyorÕs of funk in techno and house. what it is, by definition, ainÕt exactly clear. and that is the beauty of it. kinkÕs music is unifying in the best possible way. channeling the spirit and feeling of a time where it didnÕt really matter who the faces behind the music were, kink plays with the elements of genres and sub-genres as if the future of it all is still wide-open. at the same time it could be accused of retro-fetishism, as much as the pope himself is infallible. the pure need to recreate moments, feelings and experience - rather than carbon copies of existing designs - was what started kinkÕs production work. hailing from bulgaria, it was nearly impossible to get your hands on all the records and music that fed into a system of raves, clubs and record shops that seemed far away from sofia, and financially it might as well have meant another galaxy. wanting to dj without having access to the tracks that spun the carousel meant that you had to create them yourselves. so, here we go with a private bootlegger gone public mastermind and one of the loudest voices in house, techno and beyond. from kinkÕs early productions with neville watson to his smash-hit for ovum, a cerebral album for macro, tons of remixes & tracks and his mind-bending live act, playground seems to take all that into a blender. simultaneously a sound-summary, the harvest of a field of ideas, and the exhibition of an artist in his prime, it also works as a sort of kink dictionary: avant-garde soundscapes stand next to boisterous bangers, classic club tracks and peak time emotions

dj-kicks has tapped up life and death label founder dj tennis for the next instalment in its long running and landmark series, which is due for release on 14th july. the italian is the first artist to ever be granted not one but two discs across which to showcases his style, and he doesnt disappoint. the mix comes as a double cd and triple vinyl release and features four exclusive tracks. these include a brand new original from dj tennis featuring fink and called certain angels, plus new tennis versions of tunes by pole and frank brettschneider, and finally an unreleased track, paratrooper, from acclaimed tel aviv duo red axes. in programming these two diverse, eclectic and yet coherent rides, dj tennis shows off his singular knack for nailing an aesthetic that is subversive yet seductive in equal measure.

there arenÕt many artists that can lay claim to having put out records on labels as divergent as rough trade and john talabotÕs hivern discs. perhaps this is because few artists express such genuine diversity in their musical tastes and creative explorations as david kitt. since the turn of the decade as new jackson he has mined a seam of driving, ghostly house to run parallel with his solo strand of ambient folk electronica. his debut release in 2011 the night mail on pogo channeled early record collection heroes aphex twin and orbital through to drexciya and projekt pm but had one foot firmly in the 21st century beaming in like some futuristic cyberballad. on the flip side hussle free had that mix of house and boogie sensibilities with dark and dusty synths and vocoder that would become a signature. this was followed by acclaimed releases on hivern, permanent vacation, major problems, apartment and most recently cin cin. his debut album set for release on all city in may was recorded in kittÕs bedroom studio overlooking dublin bay, its nocturnal hues very much a product of the nightshift often working on headphones with the rest of his housemates fast asleep. it takes full advantage of the scope of the lp format, ebbing and flowing between deep house club ready gems and more restrained and meditative beatless moments for the morning after. the recording process yielded many eureka moments with kitt finally nailing sounds that had hitherto proved elusive.

channeling the energy echoing off dancefloors along his path, reinier zonneveld has been on a steady slope rolling out dance igniting productions while touring an intricate live set. megacity servant, the artistÕs third studio effort, stands as a coherent 16-piece techno outfit tinged with experimental tones while playfully deconstructing classic acid and disco fragments.

over the course of the past ten years, stil vor talent has striven to support emerging young artists, to continuously broaden and redefine its sound, and, ultimately, to create lasting memories, both on and off the dance floor. the dance floor is the place where we gather to leave the worries of our everyday lives behind, and, for those few moments, form a bond, which transcends the final track of the night. a bond between each other between the artist and the dancer between ourselves and the music. on 10 years stil vor talent we celebrate this bond and say thank you.

brimming with fall-esque attitude, guided by voices pop-sensibilities, and drive like jehu / fugazi / hŸsker dŸ style riffing, warm widow channel , the spirit of their influences into one totally kick-ass, brutally lo-fi rock sound - meticulously mastered by bob weston (shellac, mission of burma) at chicago mastering service - warm widow is the project of ex-tsuji giri frontman martin greenwood, and features zak hane of stranger son of wb on bass and lianne steinberg of breaking colts on drums ... info: manchester s warm widow never really intended to make this album Ð well, not in the way that widower presents itself anyway. this was supposed to be the scratchy blueprint for the actual warm widow album, recorded, you know, like proper albums are recorded: in a recording studio perhaps, with an array of appropriate microphones, with an actual producer (or certainly an engineer), and time to allow the band the breathing space to nail it , with additional options to try multiple takes and overdubs - in general, recording with a certain amount of control and ease.

while the major inspirations behind >surface to surface< - basic channel, detroit, warp - are clear, audisio s refined, unhurried sound is also entirely its own. by looking back, audision are simultaneously pushing things forward, quietly, gently, and in their own time. its the sound of high-end, deep frequency techno at its very finest
