eliptic is nothing but... passion. the first release of bucharest s based label, comes with two great pieces. on a side, julian s track is pure madness, with a groovy bass-line, subtle percussion and crazy effects, just perfect for a good dance. on side b, fengda s track is a trip from the beginning to the end, with a mysterious atmosphere, growing an intense journey for a taste of freedom. two different musical perspectives that completes each other in a 12 vinyl, that you can t miss.

erste 7- wiederveröffentlichung des raren disco-soul-klassikers -ain t nothing like your love- von the charisma band, geschrieben von ronald thomas, produziert von bert de coteau und erschienen im original 1975 auf buddah records.

soothsayers are back with a double a side featuring two massive tunes from their forthcoming album. originally released on the strut records album collaboration with cornel campbell, soothsayers have reworked their tune nothing can stop us upping the tempo and showcasing the vocal recipe of singers idris rahman , robin hopcraft and julia biel take me high is a heavy, dark and spacious head-nodder. sublime tripped out vocals by soothsayers as cornel campbell floats high in the atmosphere above accompanied by earth-shaking trombone and analogue bleeps in a sumptuous dubbed up mix. warm analogue sound recorded at fishmarket studios, mixed by daniel boyle at rolling lion studios. soothsayers releases are always championed by dj david rodigan (bbc 1xtra), as well as gilles peterson (bbc6) and many others.

black country overlord justin k broadrick (jesu, godflesh) blesses regis’ downwards fiefdom with two tracks and a tightly sprung rework by surgeon. downwards have really picked the foulest iterations of a grim set for vinyl release, inscribing the industrial-strength torque of nothing is free - which sounds like early kode 9 battered by shapednoise - at 45rpm across the front face, and branding the knuckling 808 snares and distended electro bass blow out of kontorted on its backside. surgeon’s remix of the title tune ranks among his best in many years. trace elements of the original are extruded thru modular kit and remodelled on a bouncing, swerving techno chassis recalling bmb and cub classics, but streaked with sirens and vamped by a marching brass refrain that’s just spoiling for war. the release marks a long overdue overlap between downwards’ and broadrick’s interrelated industrial, noise and techno circles. broadrick was the original drummer for napalm death on their scum (1987) album, before forming the legendary godflesh, and carving out an oeuvre as one of the most feared and respected musicians to emerge from birmingham and the uk ever since.

despite building their careers out of strikingly different musical places, both dbridge and radioactive man have taken influence from the field in which each other operate. dbridge (darren white) was part of the iconic drum & bass outfit bad company and he helms one of the scene’s most solid and quality imprints in exit records and radioactive man (keith tenniswood) was born from the acid house scene and the off kilter electronics of his two lone swordsman projects (alongside andrew weatherall) which led him to create his decidedly uk take on drexciyan electro. it’s by no means a stretch to learn that both producers have crates that contain their favourites from each genre but they’ve also found a mutual respect and connection in the studio over the last few years, leading to the dbrm moniker for craig richards the nothing special label.

ganze vier jahre nach *gemini* meldet sich jack tatum, der in brooklyn lebende kopf hinter wild nothing, mit einem neuen studioalbum zurück. für *life of pause* hatte tatum das große bedürfnis die genre-grenzen zu sprengen und sich klangtechnisch neu zu definieren. nach einer langen phase des schreibens und experimentierens nahm tatum das neue material schließlich in los angeles und stockholm auf - zusammen mit produzent thom monahan (devendra banhart, beachwood sparks). die neuen stücke platzieren wild nothing inmitten des popzirkus: euphorisch-mitreißende popmelodien treffen auf epische arrangements, und es ist mitunter unmöglich, sich für einen lieblingssong zu entscheiden, wenn diese platte so viele davon bietet.
die limitierte lp erscheint auf siberfarbenem vinyl im gatefold cover mitsamt download-karte.

joel martin and gerry rooney first surfaced as velvet season & the hearts of gold back in 2012 with the first of three salacious 12-s for lucky hole records that really got the refined disco lovers hot under the collar. following a smattering of remix commissions and a wonderful debut for resista, velvet season & the hearts of gold rear back into view with witch doctor love, a two track 12- of late night voodoo dancefloor material issued by love circle. the title track is a chunk of tough and moody house music, all sleazy whispered vocals and trippy electronics, the results are nothing less than intoxicating. complementing this, -fish powder dance- sees the pair s disco influences come to the fore on a superb fusion of classic strings, vocal harmonies, and joyous basslines over a bumping early 90s house groove

prolific doesn’t begin to describe japan’s keita sano, who has come seemingly out of nowhere to become one of the most unique new voices in electronic music thanks to a wildly eclectic clutch of releases for much-hyped labels like 1080p, joakim’s crowdspacer, mister saturday night, spring theory, discos capablanca and more. building on that buzz, sano is unleashing still more head-twisting takes on house and techno via new york’s most excellent unlimited. label boss paul raffaele has found a kindred spirit in sano. their shared love of classic dance music and refusal to let genre or convention define their work makes mxu a natural home for the “sunset ep,” coming as it does on the heels of the category-smashing “oyama edit” 12” and a 7” of drum track edits by disco king danny krivit.

kangaroo skull is the solo project of rohan rebeiro - drummer of renowned australian trio my disco. heavily percussive and rhythmically complex, kangaroo skull meticulously pieces together soundscapes within max msp, with an end result that conceals in its raw simplicity the intensity of the process. with multiple tours outside australia already behind him, australian dancefloors have been keenly awaiting a first release. palace of nothing is his much-anticipated debut - four tracks that convey a sophistication far beyond what could be expected from such a new producer.

after the striking debut release on nothing odd recordings found label owner sam smith sitting comfortably alongside baby ford for an exploration of subliminal house and techno, nor002 finds smith donning the alias monty the fly and expanding on his own vision for stripped-down dance music brimming with psychoactive tendencies. across the three tracks there is a diverse range of moods being drawn on, from the meditative to the mechanical, all fused together by what some might consider an obsessive eye for detail. there s meditation in the air in places, with mysterious pads and heavy splashes of reverb soaking out into some corners in the time-honoured dubwise spirit of transcendental electronic music. elsewhere brushed percussion and disembodied vocals shape out a more sinister message, lending themselves to a sound world both immersive and disorientating in one fell swoop.

this compilation is in celebration of our berlin party cocktail damore, which we started with boris five years ago along with visual direction by pindar (goldnsour). what began as a gay monthly, focused on bringing quality music into the alternative culture of berlin, has grown to be host to a diverse range of open minded freaks, queers and more seeking a carefree atmosphere. the music we have compiled is a reflection of the variety of sounds our guests expect from the unique cocktail experience. the 3x12 inch vinyl comes in discodromo triple gatefold sleeve including poster and donwload code to redeem audio hi-res files.

vinyl only release, limited to 300 numbered copies.
alex & digby return for faarat003! two killer tracks of subtle minimal synthesis. *nothing with you* is a slice of micro gold - considered sound design and woozing synths are backed by a scattered broken beat. the b side *tokyo* takes us into noir-ish house territory, speckled with acidic warbles and tight rhythmic technique.

we are very honoured to welcome the cologne-based producers hade + gutta to the local talk family. their debut release marks a further development of the local talk sound, balancing between house & bass. the ep kicks off with *nothing wrong*, a track built around a bouncy bass riff that lingers and weaves around a clever vocal splicing. *in me* continues where *nothing wrong* left off but adds more depth and ingenious stabs, it is a 100% bouncing track for sure. ending the ep is hades solo number *baphome*. a bass fuelled floor packer with nicely interwoven synths and a hypnotic house groove that remains present throughout the track. in conclusion - a garage-esqe belter with the right amount of wobbly bass to satisfy all your dj & dance floor needs.

chewed up and spat out the other side of the uks acid house scene, neville watson was bitten hard by the house music bug and has not looked back since. his brand of deep, raw and jacking house has been released on labels like clone, dissident, rush hour and creme organisation. neville says: i kind of like music that sounds like it is all about to start falling apart at any given moment. there is plenty of clean music that i do like but as a rule i like it rough.

kiwanuka, a 25 year-old uk native of ugandan heritage, was raised in north london where he split his time between session work and local gigs. along the way, having found footing as a solo artist, he was signed to communion records, then polydor, and has since performed throughout europe and north america too touring in direct support of adele. he made his way through nashville this past summer with just enough pause and aplomb to commit these morsels to tape. the a-side *you ve got nothing to lose* is an original composition, featuring the buzzards dominic davis on upright bass and cory younts on piano, joined also by fellow balladeer lillie mae rische on fiddle. their contributions transform his work into a stone-cold groove with almost orchestral underpinnings, making it a fitting extension of their previous blue series. the single also features a chilling rendition of townes van zandts infamous *waitin round to die* on the b-side, the perfect compliment to the timbre and mood of the a-side.
