the ocean is closed is a collaboration of music ensemble zeitkratzer with performance group she she pop.
play – according to the cultural historian johan huizinga – is a free activity carried out within certain fixed boundaries in time and space according to voluntary, but necessarily binding rules. it has no goal outside itself and is accompanied by a feeling of excitement and joy. it creates social alliances that for their part often surround themselves in a secret or set themselves off from the everyday world by means of disguise.
in the ocean is closed the “modern composition super group” (the wire) zeitkratzer and the performance collective she she pop observe each other across the limits of their own categories. they look in fascination at their “exotic“ colleagues. outside eyes and ears are interested in different things, ask the right wrong questions, misunderstand the agreements and breach basic laws.
she she pop and zeitkratzer play a concert: secret, order and ocean. they celebrate music and play per se.

music for dreams is proud to announce the new album by danish legend dub tractor. one of the founding fathers of electronica in denmark in the early 90s, anders remmer has remained a reluc-tant beacon of copenhagen’s scene ever since, with his musical legacy still a work in progress. as well as being a member of future 3, remmer has released material under a number of different aliases, but his most frequent guise dating back to 1994 has been dub tractor. under this name, he gently crafts complex yet warm and organic electronic music that flirts with ambient, dub and idm. with “hello ambient wash”, the first dub tractor album since 2009, remmer explores further the possibilities of dub tractor after the more pop-oriented & shoegaze-flavoured approach of his last album -sorry-. in addition to new material, the second half of “hello ambient wash” presents a ret-rospective of hand-picked tracks from his first three albums on flex records (the label which music for dreams founder kenneth bager ran with ole mortensen from 1994 to 2007). ... bonus info: nils frahm is a fan.

hope are in the black phase. everything around them is obscured. every lyric and every spark of music, every photograph and every recording is drenched in black. it’s not the black of wave or gothic bands, but the unpretentious black of portishead or talk talk. a black arising from a wound and at the same time covering the wound, burying it. a scab. a black letting you forget the jazz, the academics, and the provinces that hope has come from. in germany, jazz, academics and the provinces are very close, and hope had to live through most painful experiences, play many unnoticed concerts, and remain unloved to find the love for themselves and their music. only this explains the dark stringency and consequence of their self-titled debut album (produced by olaf opal), featuring monolithic songs like cell, kingdom and raw. songs, sounding rather like dystopic infinity than a light-hearted debut album. songs, compressed to one word, as if the listener should not waste any time with reading, but start listening. listen and dive into the endless hope wave of sound, vehemence and black. and yes, during all of this, the iconic singer christine börsch-supan is naked. we can only guess her contours - it is too dark.

london based club night and newly formed label snap crackle & pop s third releases comes in the form of a dark take on new wave influenced techno from berlin based new yorker curses. side a kicks off with a hypnotic techno stomper another view which playfully tips its hat to early electro albeit through a visor of coldwave inspired guitars. together in the dark delves into even darker territores with ice cold organs reaching for the light through the grinding ambient yet groovy undertones. on the b-side inga mauer ramps up the dancefloor tension with her machine like acid rework pulsating and crashing urgently together in the dark, whilst the golden filter turn out a low slung trip of brooding synths and haunting vocals before cascading down the rabbit hole in a swell of industrial motorik beats and percussive explosions in their take on another view

we’re delighted to report that black grape are back on the road, and with new album pop voodoo that really does rock the fuck out of the discotheque. it’s a rewind to over twenty years ago and the glory days.
shaun’s word play has never been deployed to such devastating effect, and he scores a bullseye whether he hits the obvious targets (trump), and the more obscure ones… well, find out for yourself. the world is in a bit of a state right now, and bullshit reigns more than ever, and perversely disguised as candour. we need manc street sass, intelligence and wit more than ever right now. this new pop voodoo album has that in spades.

quazarz came to the earth from somewhere else, a musical ambassador from his place to ours. somehow, through fire or through fury, the palaceer of shabazz palaces caught wind of the tale, and it is through his prism that we hear the story. the beach was there, and atlaantiis, and chemical alterations and cell memories and andre norton, richard k. morgan, and always octavia butler. there were killings and there were votes, and brutality in both. there was sound and there were other worlds, and there was a vastness so participation sometimes came only at the edges. and the palaceer coasted down with the alien notion, like quazarz, and so became. on quazarz when they look at this place they see the inhabitants, the humans, but they don’t assess as we do. and so quazarz was sent to meet a cat with vibration, a creative and courageous, caring, compassionate dude that stood out. the dude was a drug dealer, but that was neither here nor there, until his dealings squashed the rendezvous, leaving our alien alone to figure out what this place is really all about. the vinyl release includes a download code.

…speaking of air and darkness, “born on a gangster star” came into the world in a big damn hurry, like nightfall on an island. you can see it happening, but then again it’s so gradual that the next thing you know - it’s dark.
imbued with the energy and ideas from all the creative embers floating in the atmosphere like fireflies, shabazz palaces recorded this entire album over the course of two weeks with blood in seattle. new gear and new equipment disintegrated comfort zones into dust and a new path appeared in the rubble.
herein the palaceer continues the tale of quazars, a sentient being from somewhere else, an observer sent here to amurderca to chronicle and explore as a musical emissary. what he finds in our world is a cutthroat place, a landscape where someone like him could never quite feel comfortable amidst all the brutality and alternative facts and death masquerading as connectivity.

haiku-chanson mit us-akzent fredda erfindet ihr eigenes musikalisches land - wenn ein chanson durch japanische gedichtformen inspiriert und dann mit dem sound der us-w?ste garniert wird, dann entsteht ein neues album von fredda. wenn der klang der worte allein schon musikalische poesie wird und eigentlich keine ?bersetzung braucht, dann ist eine s§ngerin, texterin und komponistin am werk, die frankophonen pop in eine kunstform verwandelt. freddas konsequente weiterentwicklung erweckt ein chanson voller tiefgang und seele zum leben. vorl§ufiger h¸hepunkt: ihr neues album land.

junto club kicked off snap crackle & pop late last year, and now the label returns with the debut solo release from london-based outfit deeds. while rollo and kiri inglis may have previously popped up on an obscure compilation on anti-ghost moon ray, this record should see their coldwave sound shoring up with many more adventurous listeners. video dreams is a beautifully melancholic slice of electronica while unknown reaches for euphoric heights. remixes from bezier and the field round the record out as a wonderful exercise in emotive home listening electronics for sensitive souls.

you should already know who porter ray is (but you probably don’t.) the machines that seek to control your perception don’t want you to. he is too much of an anomaly. porter skews the modern experiment that is contemporary rap music wildly. he is in a word: authentic. porter ray is a natural… he sounds like east seattle feels.
from the same wet blocks that spawned quincy, jimi and ishmael, comes porter ray. having previously penned six projects showcasing dexterous wordplay, unflinching honesty and vulnerability, tempered with equal degrees of braggadocio and charm, porter is an old soul, a story teller par excellence, a griot possessing insight beyond his years.
double vinyl release with download code included.

a fantastic obscure record, whose tracks simply anticipate techno and generally electronic music of the early 70s, including kraftwerk’s milestone “autobahn”. the set provides some blending funk tunes driven by experimental electronic music, all with a heavy dramatic feel: the result is an unbelievable, unique and explosive library music lp, a collection of several tv synchronization themes. what we had is stunning drama cop scores and dark electronic moods, all surrounded by loads of fuzzy vibes and all that weird, industrial, futuristic synth fx and so on...
the vinyl release includes a cd-copy of the album.

having come to light on optimo music, the junto club now kick off the snap crackle & pop label with a new single that builds on their promising reputation. shiviana is a perfect encapsulation of what the band are about, channelling all kinds of wave styles into their instruments but still coming off sounding contemporary and seductive at once. khidja comes on board to remix the track, turning it into an acidic burner with a heavy dose of bombast thrown in. ikiryo presents a more post punk side to the junto club sound, which smagghe & cross then buff up into a crafty electro number for the dancers.

polka! cherie! voulez-vous coucher avec moi? bordel! baby-boom! a new special edition in the le pop series. perhaps the most offbeat yet. instead of focusing on the current chanson-scene as usual, this disc is a party compilation that is fun, is independent of release plans, and that shows just how danceable and versatile the modern chanson is. listen to le pop la boum, and it is guaranteed to put a satisfied smile on your face. this new le pop is clever, energetic, full of humour and extremely diverse.

nice price deal !!! magic pop hotel invites you on a luminous voyage through the vegetal dreamscape of >flowers<, the first single from the album. floating somewhere between pop and trip-hop, magic pop hotel reaches through mysterious atmospheres and creeping climates, spinning with freedom. on this record, the poetic universe of magic pop hotel is explored by the artists the micronauts, junesex, and betsyapolis. each remix takes hold of the nebulous center of the song and extends it in a different direction. with the micronauts remix, christophe monier pours his neo-80s space disco honey all over the dance floor. an intoxicating sound serum that will have bees swarming to the club for eternal youth. the junesex remix draws on the trip hop inspiration of magic pop hotel to grow heavy dub blossoms through the cracks in the concrete. the vibrations dig deep into the most fertile emotions. the betsyapolis remix plucks a sweet, ripe fruit and spins it fresh and juicy, playing with the airy pop goodness of >flowers<

after coming with a pretty great electronic soft jazz number on the first release, distant works begins to define the mission behind the label with the second offering-a synth, italo-esque 5-cut ep that would only come from somewhere in the netherlands these days. the label bosses are clearly up to go to distant places to deliver the sounds. it s a very impressive statement and raises our interest on future releases.
