after five years of experimenting with a string of different singers, chromatics introduced ruth radelet as the lead actress to star in their films in 2005. forever standing out from the crowd, chromatics imagined the soft rock focus of hall & oates stretched over a fleetwood mac beat. trading the dancefloor for gorgeous chords & melancholic strings. they lived where it was always late & neon lights glimmered across the wet streets. this record archives studio work between 2004 & 2006 leading up to the now infamous >night drive< album.

innerwestsoul is an anonymous, sydney-based crate digger who claims influences as wide as art blakey, tony blackburn, joni mitchell and streetsounds electro, and credits first and foremost where it all began with his dads original 1970s home made motown, soul and disco mixtapes. turntable tweaking and re-editing tracks since 1985, his original productions utilised nothing but a razor blade and a roll of sticky tape to keep the music flowing. fast forward to the 21st century, and he continues to apply the same diy philosophy to his digital productions, creating tracks with real drama, continually diving deep into the infinity of musical history to find those rare nuggets of pure musical gold, then sharing them with the world

4 selected tracks have made it onto the black gold, even were loving each tune like a mother loves her umh.. eight children. mathias kaden presents a 2010 edit of his first ever solo release ‚circle pit (va004!), followed by dewaltas deep but yet bouncing stinger bell string experience. on the flip, this ep opens up with nico purmans ‚xpress yourself which lands somewhere between rick james and francois k, followed by alex smokes freaky ‚i-73 night which, to quote vakant pal tolga fidan, is a reminder of how dance music should have been if it hadnt gone generic…its punk.

nice price deal !!! the return of dub recordings!?! 6 track debut ep of young dutch producer astroposer! after a period of silence this was a great reason to get clone s sub label specialized in the finest electronica (since 1996) back alive! especially after learning that astroposer got heavily influenced by the early releases on dub by of eog, syndrone (aka machine drum) and funckarma which he heard from his older brother. the circle is round and little brothers grow up and before we knew the next generation arrived to take over. heavy 6 track ep with futuristic hip hop, modern beat trickery, neon commodore 64 bleepy downbeat rave tracks. support: blawan, instra:mental, a made up sound, 3voor12 radio, funckarma, machinedrum etc.

following the intricate alleys down in the shattered underworld, molar module and emad parandian rejoin under harsh neon light to share haknams third vinyl.
>kifarasi< on the a-side by molar module offers absorbing percussion underlined with ambient echospaces, industrial patterns and a propulsive bass.
the b-side >arezou< by emad parandian combines dulled nautical atmospheres, crackly analogue percussions in deep symbiosis with energetic solid drums that densify space. mysterious vocals seem like a relict of ancient times.
truly a hearty third release that etches elaborate details into the outline of haknam.

once again another masterpiece from the dynamic reflection squad in your face! this time its from the uk monster voidloss. the title track acteon is already an oldy and paul felt in love with it a long time ago. it was already digital released in 2007, but we asked voidloss if he wanted to see this on pure gold as well... and of course he wanted that! so why dont we put up an whole ep with more dancefloor killers of this man? grovskopa is always capable of delivering good remixes and so he did. this time something a little bit different then what you expect, but with this track he shows us what an open mind he has on techno. rolling crunchy basslines and smooth pads bring this track in a perfect vibe to set the tone for the night. moment of total emptiness is a more deeper and hypnotic tune, but will definitely bang your head on the dancefloor. mr. a. paul is going for the rework and came up with a really great uplifting and oldschool touch. perfect tool to use in your dj sets! all n all a superior release by this uk studio wizard. lets pray for more of this pure quality stuff and keep our eyes on the the future. the scene need more labels like this which reflects the current techno movement and promises loads more of that sweet stuff in days to come.. dynamic reflection will represent only the true spirit of pure techno, they will put only the quality stuff back on the dancefloor!

wave music presents its newest release under the milk & honey moniker with additional production by boyd jarvis. the original long version is a beautifully drawn out symphony of strings and jazzy keys over a sultry downbeat and lazy vocoded vocals. consider this gold for fans of 4 hero and all lounge-core/downtempo fanatics. the flip however is boyd jarvis uptempo dance floor phenomenon. inserting a heavy and pumping bass line and adding xylophone arpegios alongside congas, organ synth and space atmospherics make for one wild galactic journey. think kevin yost remixed by salt city orchestra and you are right on target. slamming!

one year later the label panacustica delivers a slamming second twelve inch rats mother followed by a brilliant prins thomas remix, plus a detroit inspired instrumental by stay gold, argentoÆs alter ego. the record opens with a dreamy version where a plucked string intro and rats voice drive you into a deep, cinematic, adult dance groove. this laid back, psychedelic track flows well beyond your usual dance floor act into eno-esque territories. prins thomass mix is faster, happier and jumpier. its an amazing balearic trip with a live warm feel to it in which a guitar plays along the melody, accentuating the spaced out feel of the track, lifting it into higher states. stay gold gives the listeners a techno version where sparse, mechanical drums and a minimized melody take us to the motor city (citta dei motori) for a night drive in the dark. own it, feel it, play it loud.
