"you wake from sleep, the door closes by itself and the walls run with slime and rain. a shadow moves, almost familiar, welcoming and simultaniously intimidating. the candle flickers and snuffs out. a noise. your torch is dying. something takes your hand. long fingernails and old skin. you mark the floor, chant the incantation. together. in the first of our split series we present two modern artists who’s imaginations know no limit. abstract drones, anchient machinery, neon cities within the shadow of the overfiend. heading up side a is the legendary cristoph de babalon, whose work in the late 90s on digital hardcore and his own cfet proved to be some of the most unique and timeless of the period. seperated by european boarders, the reigns are taken by triames, cutting the rhythms to explore techno as a more abstract concept, beautifully detailed work in between lustmord and emptyset. giallo disco is proud to present ‘invocation of the demon twin vol. 1′ possibly the most sinister and atmospheric release to date, and also one of our most special. art by eric lee."

masterworks music certainly know how to make an entrance, kicking off this new series, bag of tricks , with a star-studded cast. picking the best high-end sizzlers from a who s who of the nu-disco scene. highlights include the sublime slicked-out chic-style electro-disco of rayko looks like love the shiny 80s synth-soul seducer too much for me to take by dr packer and the shoulder-padded power-stomp of 80s child s bangkok nights pressed on limited white vinyl these won t be around for long so act fast!

uk funk connoisseur duke slammer takes the driving seat on the 303-fueled ‘bangkok skytrain’, with remixes from moscow based simple symmetry and returning artist tony g. inspired by tropical heat, bangkok skytrain utilises 303s, analogue drum machines and mixes in field recordings taken from an excursion to thailand. the result is a heady concoction of warm basslines and humid atmospheres, with a groove reminiscent of early 90’s melodic techno and a cheeky drum track that wouldn’t be out of place on a larry heard record. simple symmetry, the lipski brothers from moscow, slowly rebuild layers of the track like a locomotive building up momentum, and in typical style simple symmetry style finding the perfect vocal sample and pan pipes that help propels you into the foreign lands. before you know it the track is pumping at full chug! tony g’s take goes a bit further afield than the original. a dub rhythm sets the picture in outer-space. hihats stutters like cosmic dust rickashading off the nosecone of the space ship while longing strings take us deep into a distant nebular before the 303 bring the thousands of new galaxies into view. definitely music to listen to in the dark! look out for the secret dancefloor weapon ‘just drums’, an industrial drum machine workout for the freaks!

catch recordings now mark up release number six in fine style. again nudging the boundaries and dipping their toe in uncharted waters, this latest release comes in the form of the trunk sewer ep, a five track affair featuring great original material by olerton as well as a brilliant first ever remix from literon. if you didn t know, literon is better known as dutch master gerd (one his many aliases), and is someone who has defined the underground house sound for years with countless releases on labels like clone and his own 4lux. to date the label has showcased a deep house and techno style for the main room. bobby o donnell, bob barker and doubting thomas have all released here and now it is the turn of the assured talents of harry wolfman and joel wilson aka olerton. this refreshing and original pair have released on top labels like strictly rhythm, soundplate and others, and are now back with a bang.

who in this world doesn t know el baile aleman. probably one of the most recognized tracks from the worldwide electronic music scene.

great insight into japanese pop music!

after retiring from the jamaican police force arthur duke reid established his treasure isle liquor store and sound system in pink lane kingston and was crowned the undisputed king of sound and blues in 1956, 57 and in 58. the duke then moved into record production and after relocating the store to 33 bond street, he then built a recording studio on top of his new premises in 1966. according to the musicians and singers the wooden construction of the treasure isle recording studio gave the music a distinctive warmth and richness and with resident engineer byron baron/smithy smith at the controls, the sound of a bond street recording was immediately recognisable.
but the studio one sound is different to the treasure isle sound! the people have to know. - bunny striker lee
a glittering selection of strikers treasure isle recordings are featured on this compilation. so please sit back and enjoy the set!

by now we know the exaltics stand for high quality advanced deep space electro techno after their great trilogy on clone records and most recently their great retrospective album -the truth 2008 - 2013-on their own solar one music. as a follow up on that album they invited an impressive line up of remixers to work on some of their album tracks! e.r.p. , gosub, dopplereffekt, objekt, and ultradyne: these heavyweights and legendary artists have written some of the most important pages of the electro / techno history. a dream come true for the exaltics and a heavy weight and highly desirable collection of electro techno on solar one music! highly recommended!

organized aside from the science establishment in june 1993 at the californian resort pajaro dunes, in the monterrey bay, a conference that reunited a group of scientists and philosophers around a intelligent design1 took place. but we all know there are other theories about the origin of life on planet earth. the 5th release of the monkey bar comes from the result of the matured and well meditated work from pajaro dune. this complex house ep comes from the same creative minds behind the lontano project but with a distinct approach and sound. this ep is pure obscure deepness with a scent of house, to cap it all we brought the mighty zadig to deliver a techno cosmic wonderful remix. don’t expect a classic, zadig took the path of most resistance and produced an outstanding psychedelic masterpiece.

repress 2015 - those notorious victims of session return to what we like to think of as their spiritual home, if not their physical one, with the brilliant glow in the dark ep, and if you thought solomun and his neon nights were the only day-glow players in town its time to think again as the sv boys slap on the luminous paint and head straight to the dancefloor.

bones return with the second release in their new series from a mysterious underground house & techno heavy weight dj & producer..... 3 new top notch house cut ups aimed directly at the dance floor & beyond! vinyl only!!!

the mysterious talent antenna shows his tough, high impact house sound for his second release on the dutch pinkman label. first up, ‘childhood’ is a mid tempo bit of elastic, groove driven house with whirring machines, raw synth patterns and filtered, muffled vocals. hi hats add an incendiary element of pressure but really this one is all about the pinging, rubbery drums that flail like drunken limbs. ‘when i read my book’ is another purposeful offering riddled with melody and deep drums, slapping claps and lots of jittery cow bells, impish synth sounds and bass kills that brings a real sense of energy to proceedings. lastly, ‘in august’ is a tripped out cut with skipping kick drums, celestial and heavenly, glassy melodies and skittish percussion that all glide along in alluring and off kilter fashion. this is house music, but not as you know it!

exile is the next level basecamp of johannes heil and markus suckut. we at exile know that it is nonsense to write anything about music, because music can only be translated by listeners ear. so close your eyes. dont speak. dont think. just listen..... we are exile. mastering and cut my dubplates and mastering berlin.

new to the stay underground it pays gang, the eighth release on the label comes from none other than octo octa! you know him from his prolific run on 100% silk, and more recently for his ep on gerd jansons running back label at the top of the year. the man from brooklyn serves up 4 slices of that u.s. experimental house sound we love so much. on the a side, we have two versions of octo octa’s melancholic title track, requiem for the body. both as good as the other, it’s gonna be split for a lot of listeners on which is better. while both versions share certain elements, the second plays down the long keys of the first versions in favour of some stabby chord patterns. either way, proper 4 a.m. business!on the flip, we get a bit more ethereal with times two (loose version). simple yet effective, this one has a lot of atmosphere with those delayed vocal cuts over that late 80s bassline. closing out the record is when home. this one is a bit of a stomper at first until it brings in the lighter synth elements halfway through. someone, somewhere will have an epiphany listening to this track. if its you reading this, send in the results on the back of a postcard. all in all, another killer release that feels straight at home in the stay underground it pays catalogue

late nite tuff guy is a new breed of disco vigilante, prowling the neon streets on a mission from god / david mancuso to reclaim the clubs and fuck shit up. the scandalous alter-ego of genuine techno legend hmc (known to his momma as cam bianchetti), late nite tuff guy (lntg) puts the acrimony in acronym, the oh in disco, the amp in camp and the dang in dangerous. his shit is controversial, but it doesnt stink.
peddling the most credible of disco edits – sexy and tasteful to a tight white tee – and accruing some serious acclaim from an illustrious roll call of heads in the know (including jeff mills, todd terje, richie hawtin, laurent garnier, ellen alien, steve lawler, carl cox, nic fanciulli, jackmaster, optimo and the don himself – sir greg wilson, who remixed lntgs one nite in a disco), the world is his and its about to blow up... 2015 pressing

it is almost hard to believe and we are looking for that wormwhole that brought us here as we are already looking at the arrival of compilation number * o *. and we rather do not start thinking about the endless wordplays we could do with the * story of o*, however we have to admit that this special * o-edition* comes with an extra portion of deepness, soul and yes, even sex

perhaps it is something in the water or just plain vodka, we really have no idea but one thing is for sure - there is something special about those moscow disco heads. they sure know how to find a perfect beat and re-edit it to perfection. after lay-far it is now time for arsenii to step into the basic fingers arena. both sides on this 12 are filled with jazz-funk and library infused disco at its best. *allegria* sounds like bob james is jamming with the headhunters and on the flip *turbo* with its generous use of synthesizers almost has an outer space theme. essential indulgence for disco heads & connoisseurs everywhere.

*what cha gonna do for me* (1980) is arguably the best effort of the partnership with arif mardin. slowly but surely the two began to craft an even more successful and innovative sound. the album peaked at #3 in the r&b albums chart of 1981.
the cover of *we can work it out* gets a brash and funky stevie wonder –style arrangement, with gregory phillanganes doing great synth work. the best song here, *i know you, i live you*, displays brilliant bass and drum.
pressing on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

big with dixon, the drifter, alex niggemann, fur coat, thugfucker, frankey and sandrino. -sketches of pain- is a meet-up of two cultures which have been at war with each other for thousands of years. music unites where the world of men divides! here the magical voice of egyptian singer ahmad elsawy can weave its spell. intelligent electronica, ethnic and acoustic instruments, all join together once more to blend two worlds into one universal language. 3 remixes. luca bacchetti continues his series of endless remixes preferring a mostly dub feel with a version that retains some of the original elements, creating that tension culminating in what is the “suspended” sonic idyll that lately has characterized his breakdowns, by now a trademark of his. jon charnis, who we already know for his work on innervisions and all day i dream, has taken it in another direction to put together a true masterpiece, the tone here becoming more -trippy- with a pure afterhours atmosphere. the ever present and increasingly detailed groove add to that magic touch that has made charnis one of the most interesting techno artists on the american scene. last but not least one of our favourite techno artists, eduardo de la calle, surprises us with an interpretation that distances itself completely from the original, moving it into that enigmatic, mysterious and unregulated territory that is definitely his very own unmistakable way of living and feeling techno music. an ep that we expect will come-out from indoor clubs to find its best expression in exotic locations, deserts, beaches, dimensions that are part of that imaginary world that we call: endless.

red laser returns with four tracks from ste spandex. if you ve heard any ste spandex productions you ll know what to expect ! this ep is a fascinating collision of diverse dance music aesthetics & bristles with energy and passion. as usual all the tracks are live takes with various hardware working overtime from ste s orchestration. side 1 features two tracks with long time collaborator sarah bates. soaking wet is a peak time workout with tightly sprung drums, whirling effects & sarah s vocals weaved enticingly throughout the track. next is breakin my heart, an addictive bubbler melding house and boogie feelings with the vocals more centre stage. side 2 kicks off with gotta move, an 80 sesque grinder. pumped bass rubs up against squelched keys and peaky synth riffs, while nice weather closes things down, a short and sweet movement of shuffling drums and swerving synth action.
