the official sonne mond sterne festival compilation! 2cds , 2 mixes by charlotte de witte und markus kavka. inclusive unreleased tracks

loke rahbek returns with his fifth album under the croatian amor alias with love means taking action, recently premiered at the 2016 edition of berlin atonal where it was considered by many as one of the festival highlights. although not as harsh and abrasive as previous albums, such as genitalia garden or last years the wild palms, rahbeck still manages to execute a polarising opus, comprised of short ambient journeys which incorporate various sonic influences and clever use of sampling outside of his usual employment of textural noise treatments. field recordings, immaculate synthesis and emotional vocal snippets are interspersed throughout this exploration of love and human connection. the title track, in particular, could well be one of our favourite songs this year. quite simply: breathtaking.

moby has released a new single and video for Òlike a motherless child,Ó from his forthcoming album everything was beautiful, and nothing hurt. featuring la-based soulstress raquel rodriguez, Òlike a motherless childÓ is a re-work of the well-known spiritual, with its origins in the slavery of the american south. the track describes the void left when one feels separated from a parent, higher power or similar guiding force. over the years this powerful song has been reinterpreted by the likes of odetta, lena horne, mahalia jackson and van morrison. the album is a glowing tapestry exploring spirituality, individuality and the brokenness of humanity and finds him returning to his orchestral, soul, trip-hop and gospel roots.

recently, superpitcher was invited to go on a safari in south africa. he bought a custom made safari hat at his favorite milliner in cologne (ju&#776,rgen eifler) and set off with big eyes and a pair of binoculars. it was wild and wonderful and he saw many exotic (and big!) animals, even a leopard in a tree that told him the secret of the universe. he forgot what the leopard said because his mind was still playing and replaying the sound of what he heard on the first night of his arrival Ð the hypnotic and moving sound of the voices of africa, the voices of the wonderful tanda tula staff choir. there, the choir members work during the day at the camp and at night entertain the guests with their captivating voices and energetic dancing. so impressed was he with their songs and beautiful shangaan language that he decided to record a cd for them to sell in the shop at their camp and now this precious recording is also available through hippie dance / bush recordings on vinyl and cd for you in whatever wherever camp you are. the lp of the tanda tula choir comes with a very pretty poster.

the techno revolution 30 years ago, where boundaries, walls and our own guarded natures came crumbling down? the archaic establishment-challenging attitude and forthright energy of the punks? the long-awaited eruption of gay culture that had burned and yearned since the dawn of mankind? dare you travel even further back? rewind two hundred years to the romantic revolution where men like the blitzed berloiz helped us transcend our physical limitations for suspended moments of fantastique disbeliefÉ all of these moments have shaped us, our music and our culture. each movement comprising artists who like us right now are trying to make sense of the uncertain world, the chaotic present and the fearful future. artists like hell. welcome to the futureÉreflecting over his participation and contribution to myriad cultural movements since the late 70s, his passion of ever-evolving musical form and our current socialpolitical landscape, hell taps into our collective rich histories, our combined fears and our mutual desires to create his most personal, ambitious and thought provoking body of work to date: zukunftsmusik. his fifth studio album zukunftsmusik fuses some of hellÕs strong signature motifs (his passion for subversion, his great kosmiche canvases, sudden throbbing bursts of dancefloor dynamism, subtle songcraft) yet it sounds unlike anything hell has ever created before. there are very few big club singles. a delicate balance of classical dramatic orchestral tension and evocative futuristic synthesis runs throughout. dark and light, hope and fear, fast and slow, day and night.over the course of one hour helmut josef geier invites you on a musical trip of a lifetime his lifetime, your lifetime, musicÕs lifetime.

on limited edition compact disc. no., founded by atomtm & material object in 2014, celebrate their second birthday in style with no. ii, a collage, a readymade, an assemblage, a synthesis, in short: a spectrum of elements refracted through the prism of the labels output between the 1st of may 2015 to the 1st of may 2016. you might call such a spectrum a mix, and thats up to you. over the 79 minutes the mix traverses a wild landscape of material. a dose here from the lysergic adventures in the concrete jungle of g@ng5ta, a stroll there over the bubbly terrain of material object+ishqs invisble light, the air punctuated by the haunted soundscapes of former severed head: garry bradburys yakovlevian torque. slather on top of that a caustic beat from anamorph specimens and then undergrid it all with the morbidly obese frequencies of atomtms texturen series and you have yourself some kind of interdimensional feast. so, welcome to our second birthday party.
