monkey safari betreiben in ihrer heimatstadt halle mit dem -charles bronson- einen über die stadtgrenzen hinaus bekannten club sowie ihr eigenes label hommage, das regelmässig vordere plätze der beatport-tech-house-charts belegt. mit dj-gigs auf festivals wie time warp oder awakenings und mit releases auf label wie kompakt, minus oder bedrock, darunter remixes für marc houle, kölsch, wolf+lamb, guy gerber, josh wink und moby(!), haben sich monkey safari im laufe der zeit ein internationales renommé erarbeitet. -odyssey-, der titel ihres neuen albums, beschreibt treffend den prozess seiner entstehung, das, anfõnglich als listening-werk geplant, sich im verlauf zu authentischer clubmusik für eine vielzahl von unterschiedlichen dancefloors entwickelte und das unverkennbare genie der beiden versierten dj/produzenten belegt.

beloved dj, compiler and incurable vinyl junkie, kev beadle returns to bbe with a 3rd volume of his much lauded æprivate collectionÆ album series. taking in a wide range of obscure jazz with a distinct nod to the dance-foor, the frst two æprivate collectionsÆ are already considered classics by the jazz-dance community. once again presenting a wealth of ultrarare sounds previously only available to record collectors with very deep pockets, vol.3 sees kev inviting us to travel even deeper into the vinyl vaults.

hope are in the black phase. everything around them is obscured. every lyric and every spark of music, every photograph and every recording is drenched in black. it’s not the black of wave or gothic bands, but the unpretentious black of portishead or talk talk. a black arising from a wound and at the same time covering the wound, burying it. a scab. a black letting you forget the jazz, the academics, and the provinces that hope has come from. in germany, jazz, academics and the provinces are very close, and hope had to live through most painful experiences, play many unnoticed concerts, and remain unloved to find the love for themselves and their music. only this explains the dark stringency and consequence of their self-titled debut album (produced by olaf opal), featuring monolithic songs like cell, kingdom and raw. songs, sounding rather like dystopic infinity than a light-hearted debut album. songs, compressed to one word, as if the listener should not waste any time with reading, but start listening. listen and dive into the endless hope wave of sound, vehemence and black. and yes, during all of this, the iconic singer christine börsch-supan is naked. we can only guess her contours - it is too dark.

more rudeness for your pleasure from the co-founder of the permanent vacation kingdom, benjamin fröhlich: one year after the well received first rude movements ep and the accompanied remixes benjamin fröhlich returns for another round. the second part of the rude movements series brings you further adventures into the world of dance music from the past and present. it covers percussive space trance , roaring synth jams to stab-driven and flute-infused house workouts and dubby breakbeat steppers, all happily dancing under one roof.

to pick up where >i am the walrus< left off, that was the goal when electric light orchestra formed in the early seventies.
they wanted to steep different music styles in a rock tradition and mix in some beatlesque pop, but it took jeff lynne & co until their third album eldorado to get on the right track. their most ambitious album to date, they decided to hire a 30 piece orchestra and choir to fill out their sound, and the investment paid off.
with the unforgettable >cant get it out of my head< as the lead single, >eldorado< was a commercial as well as a critical success, and it would achieve gold status in the us. the english guys with the big fiddles had arrived!

first ep of the label lowlife cartel. dissociative tones, texture of the sound and atmosphere sought here, more than melody. no boundary in genre but same sonic ethos. the two sides of the ep includes two tracks ambient/downtempo fitting with patient listening. three other, lofi tracks, and more efficient to play into clubs. face a starts with -nerve splicing- by telekommunist, also known as wpx7, face covered and steps muffled through a deadening blizzard of tape saturation and white noisey envelops that find a balance between deepening the sense of immersion and a retained groove. -kairu- by a. latif, affiliated to the experimental and elusive russian label john s kingdom. an arsenal of textures are employed, surrounded all the time by different kind of breeths carving out a growingly satisfying contrast between the shivery charm of its melodic line and the roughness of its elements. a rough diamond. face b, -kfs-, by vslds (present on the next cousin carl release, after kinway and voyd) is a delusional and abstract piece of lofi hip hop. setting skittish drums and heavily altered rapper vox sample, smothered against a grey-ish canvas of blurry, washed-out pads. this feels both playful and unhealthy. -gotta go fast-, by paul santangelo (venetian causeway), is marked with the very personal style of this artist who does his way across the ever effervescent lofi techno scene. the round, drag-shed bass, fits with an introspective melody and atmosphere. -every man has a woman who loves him-, by loophie (raw russians), surprises the listener at the end of the disc with a lofi house track sampled from john lennon, very effective in club. the czech lofi house videomaker moskalus edited a video of it on his youtube channel. 5 artists to follow.

a dark kingdom, erected from rubble, an arid production clashed with unstructured loops, some of which, though already used, are like reborn from their ashes in a climate of dull violence. jazz, soul, classical, gospel, lyrical grandeur, in an atmosphere of conquest or on a minimalist piano coming straight out of a thriller, the pair of rhyme-makers compete with any instrument, finale temperating by a laid and reflective flow the fiery fangs fel sinks on every bar. this kingdom, fel & finale, will have built it alone, fel sweetenberg taking charge of all the beats delivered to the duo s screened pages in ink, the door ajar only to let dj djaz introduce his turntable s tonearm to scarify the groove with his unique cuts. balancing the forces, bringing their ambition beyond the ill-famed streets that have already crowned them, finale & fel sweetenberg raise the matt colors of a demanding rap, the radiance of their banner now beyond the limits of a detroit-camden axis. two kings, two crowns. a reign: that of hip hop.

juan ramos speaks twelve languages and loiters at the zoo. this is his second offering for the esp institute. last year his debut dropped us at the edge of oblivion and this follow-up release picks up right where he left us—atkm pumps right from the start with a collision of elastic percussion, tubular clinks and cranks under what sounds like fragments of our androgynous tour guide’s speech though a malfunctioning pa. halfway through the chaos she makes a left turn toward belgium where the drum programming fattens up and we acquire an optimistic shimmering of chords. on side b, globalizacio&#769,n a&#769,cido conjures imagery of a moonlit expedition on the hunt for lord-knows-what. many producers rely on jungle sounds, loosely appropriating some misguided sense of mysticism, but juan rules his own kingdom where he creates an ecosystem through synthesis and digital manipulation. the narrative quality of his production knows no limits and his ability to twist machines into this chorus of cyber-creatures puts him at the top of the food chain, however, no animals were harmed in the making of these two songs

2183. after crash landing on an alien planet, intrepid explorer modula valiantly crawls from the wreckage of his interplanetary cruiser clinging to his life (and antique synthesizers.) taken captive, this neo-naples born space traveller is soon drafted into the services of the court of this other world s ruler. his music boxes save his life and change the very face of this distant kingdom. the results have just been beamed back in time to earth and intercepted by the bordello receiver dish. modula s voice crackles through and utters two words: autostrada galattica . cosmic boogie, futuristic funk and deep space disco are human terms to describe these sounds sent half way across the universe to be enjoyed by we humans of the 21st century. love, sacrifice and musical riches from a synthesizer super nova.

the fallen angel. the rebellious soul expelled from the pearly gates and forced to live in hell among mere mortals for eternity. here they endeavour to condition and corrupt everything around them, a bold middle finger aimed in the direction of its former home in the promised land. now imagine a soundtrack to this tragic tale. funkineven—also known as steven julien— has made just that with his debut album fallen.

sound and rhythm are effective means of individuals self-defence in face of chaotic steamroller of everyday life. hiding in a familiar yet simultaneously hardly recognisable parallel space does not have to result from the need of escaping the world or nurturing one’s ego. too many times to mention, music appearing under recognition imprint served as a peculiar type of a vehicle of survival and a tool for internal transformation. hideland, new record by polish electronic music producer jacek sienkiewicz is released precisely year after drifting, which largely explored tropes of classical club techno sound. eight (nine in extended cd version) tracks comprising this album go beyond easy-to-pigeonhole genres, creating a microcosm of utopian sound constructs. surprisingly unobvious and precisely composed release could be fascinating both for loyal fans and for new listeners looking for threads of experimentalism. its another intriguing proposal in jacek sienkiewiczs growing discography, but above all - a laboratory where dreams and artistic visions metamorphose into concrete reality.

ps006 brings things back to the foggy outskirts of techno somewhere close to s olbrichts praised trancess twelve inch. from the relentless momentum of the futuristic *station crucial* to the sinking cathedral depths of *stare at the word*, plus concrete brutalism of *surrender*, all rely on a steady techno pulse trapped in visceral synth textures crunching their way through vacuum tubes.

every dog has that certain spot: you scratch it, and your four-legged friend starts kicking out in highest ecstasy, losing all control of his reflexes. the tunes of timboletti work pretty much like that. only he s using full-bodied bass lines to stimulate his audience. it almost seems like the bodies on the dancefloor get invisibly connected to the membranes of the speakers and their rhythmic movement. on top of that, timboletti employs psychelicious sounds and melodies, enchanted sample scraps and a pinch of acid, a cocktail that tickles through the brain of the listener as if somebody poured a glass of champagne into it. the essence of forward thrust and deepness, on this ep in five different variations and tree further remixes.

frigio records are delighted to announce that alessandro parisi is once again donning the darkened robes of hesperius draco. following the acclaimed cathar rhythms this supremely talented italian artist delivers. the five track mini-album continues the draco search to balance tainted techno, sinister synth and soulful sounds.

tresor is proud to welcome mønic to its catalogue.
head of osiris music, mønic is an accomplished producer based in the united kingdom. his style can be de&#64257,,ned as raw yet exceptionally re&#64257,,ned, allowing for a certain industrial inspiration to ooze from his productions and outstanding sound design. * parsons hill* opens with tumultuous percussions that continue to escalate throughout the track as an eerie looming synth dances above the kicks. alternatively, * morse* reveals another side of the artist with a more serene attitude. here, static passes through a magnetic &#64257,,eld with a constant palpitating bass. * hollow victory* opens with thunderous clangs and a &#64258,,urry of ominous chimes that echo through the darkness swirling above a pulsating heartbeat.

here comes the second editon of nulabel in vinyl after the success of alexander dniels kingdom ep.

maeve label honcho the drifter and co-emperor of the permanent vacation kingdom, benjamin fröhlich, team up for some rascal business. always quick to pull the sling shot out of the back pocket and hit you right between the eyes, the original version of -waterville- is full of hazy melodies, washed out bells and quirky arpeggios backed up with concrete drums for some extended dancefloor meditation. while the high tide mix wraps things up a bit with some more prominent drums and a little extra spice on the bassline. mysterious uk producer a sagittariun sculptures out of the original a breakbeat house track, that sounds like a hidden treasure from this short but influential period.

one of londons most vital parties, (praised by fact, dummy, dazed & timeout who named them as one of the highlights of 2012 and ones to watch in 2013 and beyond): after a sellout first release rushmore returns to bring you the second instalment of the highly sought after hot ep series. the house of trax policy has big american focus with previous guests including dj sliink, tyree cooper, venus x, zebra katz, kingdom, fatherhood, traxman and vjuan allure. but they dont forget the uk either with appearances from bok bok, l-vis 1990, jam city & slackk. 2013 has seen very special appearances from grime godfather slimzee, dj assault, dj earl and return visits from venus x and mikeq also. with their second year drawing to a close, a capsule clothing range debut, the soundtrack to their very own club catwalk show is hot 002.
