ike yard came into being as no wave passed on, industrial was in the air and proto-techno had yet to be coined. propulsive, paranoid, aggressive electro minimalism, with as much attention paid to the mixing board and effects processors as to vocals, guitar and synth. at once starker and more fully-formed than virtually all other contemporaneous post-punk music. desires 2012 edition represents the first ever vinyl reissue of this classic, prophetic album. the line-up for the third remix ep includes a great deal of diverse music.
this is a 12 inch vinyl release, limited to 500 copies. grey vinyl, black inner-sleeve. artwork by stephen americh, inspired by the factory america design for ike yard…

hq we happened to find some boxes containing all remaining copies of repetitive digital noise by i, a.k.a. atomtm! four tracks of timeless, minimal, acidic techno recorded in 1992 and rereleased - for the first time on vinyl - on recognition in 2006. as these tunes are still making rounds in dj sets of, among others, marcel dettmann, ben klock or nina kravitz, we thinks its the great opportunity to get hold of some of the most archetypical tracks that helped to shape techno as we know it today

*mort à vegas* (death in vegas in french…) is the new 12 inch e.p. by adrien viot aka av, one of the finest protagonist on the new frenchy but chic electronic pop scene. &#8232,,,av sings the nightlife, paid sex, alcohol over-consumption, desire under the neon lights, dark side of the american dream, driving a black cadillac drunk to death. this ep contains a dreamlike remix of *mort à vegas* by death in vegas (as the track was probably written with him in mind!) but also a cover of french singer dominique a, known in france for being the one who launched the new french scene that drove the renewal of the french pop. av has still this elegant crooner voice that slowly caresses you before driving you on the dancefloor, so let his deep voice and those melodic synths & guitars seduce you.

following a failed demo submission to mad decent (note to diplo - we can hold a grudge a very long time…) blacknecks decide to self release their crossover mega-hit > to the cosmos, lets go! < with an unlikely pairing of stock-aitken-waterman style disco and robust techno grooves, this track effortlessly showcases their 2-step production prowess, by not even needing to call upon it. flip over for an armani-esque belter, backed with a noisy, introvert synth jam with a needlessly grandiose name. suck em...

the remains of the horsemans severed head are no where to be found so he has returned to sleepy hollow for vengeance. in >execution< you can hear his sword tear through the last human souls who were brave enough to step out side of their homes in the pitch black darkness. the headless horsemans >legend< has now been born in the neighboring villages but there was one survivor on his third attack. that was a gentleman named ancient methods, who showed his courage and strength so the horseman decided to let him live in return for his shield containing markings of times before his

collaborations are often the fortune of timing. with andy having moved on since closing the dissident label to launching his cave paintings project to tim s departure from battant and striking out as andrew weatheralls engineer and soon to be co-member of the asphodells, an alliance was born between the two to undertake a series of live jam sessions at eachs respective studios. a love of new wave, new beat, uk bleep and detroit techno all feature in b-ultras and the aptly titled, neu beat. both cuts are heavily soaked in the pitch black, smoke machine funk and strob-laden fug of andys (and co-hort joe hart) infamous world unknown dancefloor. running at around 10 minutes the tracks are essentially an examination of acid houses ideals. clattering hats, throbbing basslines, stabbing keys and doses of 303. keeping it pretty simple but all about a pure groove on and on. backing these up is a remix of b-ultras from jamie paton that accentuates the groove and drags the acid deeper down to some b-boy dub throwdown - with more to follow from all protagonists in 2014.

the second release on jon rusts levels label comes from estonians ajukaja & andrevski.

if house is a feeling, ray okpara has the sensation all the way down to his soul. the mobilee mainstay is a crowd teaser and a crowd pleaser year after year, teasing the boundaries between house and its sister sounds. after the acclaimed album good times became his crowning glory in 2012, midnight protein is a stunning return to form that showcases rays taste for groove and soul.

earlier on this year andy stott found himself playing on the same bill as new york heavy metal hoarders batillus. despite operating in completely different spheres, batillus had been playing luxury problems, stotts most recent album, on their tourbus and suggested a remix. the result is pressed up on this one-sided 12inch, a deadly reduction that pitches the original down into the abyss. andy stott will be back in 2014 with new material.

after a few highly praised moments this year (a 23 track magnum opus album, entitled >ascensus< on gerds seminal label 4lux, as well as a best selling ep on chicagos high rising record label stripped & chewed, amongst others), kaspar debuts on tomorrow is now, kid! with an incredible four tracker called >spice of light<. his leanings towards the esoteric and spiritual are evident throughout, and contrasted with sexual tips and pure physical pleasure through his rough beat work. the whole set is aimed at the creation of a unique, personal sound that searches the deepest recesses of the authors creativity while still true to the sound track of the dance floor. a four tracker to file under some of the most unique moments in recent releases.

no introduction is really needed for the massive balearic anthem *jibaro*. elkin & nelsons scorching latin disco classic hit big throughout spain, south america and nycs underground club scene in 1979 when this now rare and hard-to-find disco 12 inch version originally dropped, but it gained its real cult status after being picked up and championed up by the likes of rampling, oakenfold et al who who fell in love it after hearing it played by the legendary dj afredo at ibizas amnesia club. instantly recognisable and supremely dancable, this is one of the true heavyweights of the balearic scene - and a must have for any serious record collection.

vessel no 6 is airborn and your cabin crew serves you three gems on wax, road-, air- and space- tested throughout the last six months. a1 is a straight groover with an undeniable feelgood vocal, carfully rearranged for your dj needs. first officer nebraska joint ventures the record on b1 with an emotional, ever building piece of jazz funk and reminds us once more of how the art of editing has to be approached. with so much hoopla already going on, b2 leans back, happy to strip it all down and hitting us with a break that starts, floats, and then, lucky audience, just dont stop. dont stop, dont stop, over and out.

new kanada welcomes londons bob bhamra into the chamber, with this two-track breaker from his west norwood cassette library (wncl) guise. >say what?< is a broken sub workout, with a strong nod to the hardcore continuum. distant alarms, aggressive drums, and deep bass drops make this a floor-killer for all sound camps. >flashlight< is an aqueous solution of damp funk that will resonate the head and drop the lights. gaseous and moody. on the flip is a slow burner remix of >flashlight< by adam marshall - sitting somewhere between tired breaks and acid reggae. 11 minutes of moog.

just in time for this years festive celebrations, the imprint curated by merseyside edits maestro greg wilson returns with the tape-tapping talent of fingerman. real name gregg holmes, wilson first thought his fingerman pseudonym was inspired by a character from v for vendetta, the cult graphic novel by alan moore, but he was in fact so called after creating a weird stop motion video on a mobile phone about a shouting finger. thankfully his studio work is less peculiar: years of spinning techno in the mid-90s giving way more recently to an going love affair with funk, soul and disco nuggets.

vinyl only! handstamped! after the successful label launch >pure 001<, the follow-up release >pure 002 - tribute to gerberei< is now on the starting blocks.
the two former gerberei residents ron albrecht & stefan rein announce their a1 track >tatort< using their pseudonym >brothers in mind< while remaining true to their typical sound that goes back 20 years: pumping functional techno for the floor. thats it!
longtime friend and companion andre kronert was brought in for the a2 project. he contributes a fulminant remix of the song >tatort< as an absolute statement to techno - pure and direct, just like it was celebrated in the gerberei for almost 19 years. what a club-monster!
stefan rein as well as the mysterious s.e.p.e. are in charge of the b side of the record. >unwavering detroit<, created by stefan rein, is to be understood as a deep bow of honor for many great years and stunning sounds in the >holy halls< of the club... never forget!s.e.p.e. closes with the b2 title >we will find you<, without making a secret of his dedication to techno.
who the fuck is s.e.p.e.?

a 4-track package traversing house and techno. first up jour de fete, a reference to the black and white 1940s french comedy – perhaps a clue to mr georget… one things for sure this is toe-tapping house. taking its time to perfectly build up the progression towards smooth outbursts of wailing sirens. 6eme etape is another fine example of get-up-and-dance house, theres plenty of driving drum kick and jazzy key chords, nicely pulled back and interrupted, to drop back in again with a renewed energy. poil de renard on the other hand immediately marks out its territory among the german minimal and micro house space. strong, syncopated beats laced with chopped up whispers and unknown reverberations, this is tough! the 103 mix softens up the edges, a subtle underlying synth providing the mellowness – essentially your morning-after dub version.

first release of the new label dance around 88, presenting a newcomer from rennes, ringard. a four track e.p developing 2 facets of the artist, obviously linked by the love for deep house. a side features two tracks designated for the dance floor, >amuse-la-bouche< and >you know that<. on b side, we have two melodic tracks with deep pads and heady baselines, >i saw you last night< and >empty streets< . all tracks recorded live machines. vinyl only. the >old fashioned guy<. ringard in french, find his inspiration in several styles : between acid house, old school raw house, deep house and deep techno. his productions, reflect of 10 years collecting vinyls, are made only with the spontaneity of a live act >one shot< on machines. owner of dance around 88, his aim is to propose a label where you can find different flavors on the same record. let there be house!!!

the a1, named after the release title, is a summer techno drive, or a ride through a hot landscape in central america, as the notes of marimba suggest. the subtle but crackling low toms reverb dictates the driving tempo, while the chasing hats warn of a night which is likely to be dirty and sweaty. ready 2 glow opens with an enlightening synth note softly spreading through the air. its the after-hour call, the quietness before a new storm, which is about to boost and bring to surface the spastic contradictions of the drug-based soul liberating after-hour scene. corners goes funk, the quirky and rugged bass line lays at the core of the groove. above, we hear a multitude of spooky sounds and samples ranging from flying saucer sonic surges to playful stabs and bongo madness. the obsessive vocal echo, manipulated according to the abuse of ifferent drugs, is a clear indication of that. alza pure quanto vuoi is almost taken as it was firstly conceived during a jamming session. its twisted, swinging, it breaks the scheme of groove flowing as the tempo suddenly escapes to a faster pitch, jacked out

cardiffs best kept secret chesus debuts on 4lux with a release of his own. 4 strong deep house tracks. cleverly combining the old with the new, chesus shows his amazing production skills once again. the single features collaborations with fellow cardiff producers kofi tarris and, of course, the organ grinder with whom he previously released the club banger steam roller. tip!

mmx303 is almost ready, and we are so proud to deliver this amazing release of mituo shiomi on our macadam mambo trax series. this japanese producer has already released a brilliant ep on hotmix records last year with takeshi kouzuki. his music is very special, a kind of >lo-fi chicago house<, sometimes very raw, sometimes very poetic. here we have got all the styles, two strong floor burner with pierce and peak meter, and two beautiful atmospheric tracks with fine female and good morning mr. ear. be certain that mituo is definitively the guy to follow for the next
