jami bassols has been a close member of hivern since its beginnings as one half of aster. now, following the release of noche/ templo, his two acclaimed edits for nvh, he returns to the label with his solo debut as jmii. in thrills, the barcelonian producer displays a sound that s equally raw and lively, with a very personal sense of quirkiness. the title track is jmii s most expansive production to date. an uplifting house number built around an elastic bassline and sprinkled with a bubbly arpeggiated melody, echoed vocal snips and ravey pads. bailar is a sort of lunatic take on chi-house, with a crude bassline, psychotic organ chords and feverish percussion coming together to form an ultra-infectious groove. tightbrass follows a similar path, but conducted by frenzied synthetic horns that bring to mind a marching band of manic robots. in his remix, comeme s christian s. brings the track to a darker territory, reducing it to it s core elements and focusing in a nasty bassline that will for sure cause serious damage in the dancefloors in the upcoming months.

die zweite remix-auskopplung aus moderats neuem album * iii* beweist einmal mehr das händchen der band für brennend heiße clubmusik. sowohl shed als auch kink übersetzen * running* in absolute primetime-banger mit der markanten hookline als leitmotiv. der bulgarische produzent kink umschmückt sie mit einem verspielten house-groove und einer voluminösen bassline. das ergebnis seiner berüchtigten produktionskünste klingt nach dem sommerfestival-hit 2016. ganz ohne irgendwelche dezidierten anwendungsgebiete im hinterkopf, bringt shed unberührt die kickdrum gleich zum anfang des tracks. sein kompromisslos treibender techno warpt * running* mit seinem stoisch stampfenden beat in eine tödlich effektive dancefloorwaffe. mit dieser platte werden moderat die clubs, aus denen sie kommen, im sturm erobern. aber sowas von.

moderats neue single -running- vereint das kollektive gefühl einer durchtanzten festival-nacht mit der eher isolierten stimme der melancholie zu einem gefühlvoll euphorischen moment. es ist hoch-emotionaler pop, der zum tanzen anregt ohne simpel zu klingen. hier werden dunkle, sonische augenblicke mit einer brillanten klangpalette zusammengeführt. vertrackte perkussion erzeugt eine tiefe, in der sich die markante melodie so wohlfühlt, dass sie den hörer mit ihrer ganzen euphorie ansteckt und mitreißt. ein sommer-pop-song, der seine schönheit im gegensatz entwickelt. das exklusive * 90% wasser* zeigt eine andere seite der band. hier ist der gesang zu einer summenden fläche reduziert und in den hintergrund verlagert, vor dem sich eine moderne, wesentlich düstere clubnummer entfaltet, die mehr an kontemporäre klänge aus den bristoler keller-clubs erinnert als an rauschhafte sommerfestival-abenteuer und das erlebnis dieser platte eindrucksvoll abrundet. schön.

* subtext presents new work by the istanbul based artist and musician cevdet erek in extracts from his soundtrack to the turkish crime thriller frenzy, winner of the special jury prize at the 2015 venice film festival. * these two compositions shed light on erek s diverse sonic background, both as a member of the seminal band nekropsi and as a celebrated conceptual artist presenting sound and installation works internationally such as his room of rhythms, which has been shown at documenta, as well as the istanbul and sydney biennials. * the first track presents a tense and driving percussive wall of sound that mirrors frenzy s dramatic storyline set against a backdrop of political violence in istanbul. accompanying this is a textural recording exploring aspects of warped time and shifting geometry that references the films disturbing subtext of social paranoia.

two generations of italian music history come together on this split 7inch. milan meets rome, fred ventura meets alessandro adriani. for this occasion adriani and ventura covered the 82 evergreen changing by bill bruce. the perfect combination to pay homage to this monumental piece of music. on the flip side fred s early 80s new wave band state of art got the remix treatment by alessandro s moniker newclear waves. another unique match of these two key figures preserving the 80s underground sound of italy.

the first release from sign bit zero features two powerful edits from mick wills. giving new life to the track, ‘center’ by ale mania, a san diego based band, the cuts here contain wholly new structures with a greater focus on the oppressive yet powerful vocal parts and the uplifting string section. by extending the (acoustic) drum track and giving it the groove and strength we have come to associate with his edits, mick has created for us a unique take on the new wave / dark wave genres – ideal for any dj who wants to showcase this sound in a club-focussed context. ‘center’ originally appeared on the ep, ‘a, who sings that beat?’ on volar records and was written by andrew montoya, who has kindly granted us the permission to present this record to you all.

this highly anticipated reissue should need almost no introduction: plustwo’s ‘melody’ / ‘stop fantasy’ 12” (and even 7” version) have long been sought after by both italo-disco and disco/boogie collectors and command high prices on both discogs and ebay.
both tracks represent some of the peak musical achievements of the vibrant italian music scene during the early 80s, skilled performance from talented musicians, tastefully arranged with perfect and unmistakeable vocals from belen thomas.
this reissue is the result of a dedicated effort by hysteric and mothball record, in cooperation with the band, to make this record available to a wider audience.

lange war es ruhig um die band, die mit vereinzelten auftritten in köln schon eine gewisse mystik um sich aufbaute, bevor es überhaupt richtig los ging. woman machen popmusik, die sich sowohl an soul und r&b, als auch an 80er synthesizern orientiert, sowie einflüsse davon integriert. radiohead und grizzly bear sind die referenzen, die auch den anspruch der band beschreiben. es geht um eingängigkeit, ohne dabei dem radio-pattern zu sehr zu folgen. dabei clever und zugängig bleiben.

remastered in berlin by rashad becker the release presents the full album as a double vinyl release for the first time. “deep into the cut” is reissued by we can elude control.
