quality reissue of the mega-rare blow up records release of the italo masterpiece pink footpath by loui$. originally released in 1985, this gem has become one of the most highly sought after italo disco tracks around. on the a side is magic dance which is good, but it’s the instrumental version of the track pink footpath that really gets the disco djs drooling. with its killer analogue b-line, dreamy synths and balearic guitar riffs, its easy to see why it became such an anthem at the early ibiza parties as well as a late night favourite in chicago and new york. highly recommended.

as a member of chairlift, the band he co-founded in 2006 and exited in 2010, aaron pfenning pulled double (and triple) duty – playing multiple instruments, writing songs, producing, and contributing vocals for the band s major label debut. that comfort with musical multitasking – and a cache of songs he d written that didnt fit his main project – made a new solo effort seem like the natural and logical next step to take. pfenning assumed the name rewards (a moniker hes actually used since 2003), spent the better part of last year touring with we are scientists, brandon flowers and warpaint, and released three broodingly romantic singles (>i used to<, >what a loser< and the achingly beautiful >two cardinals<) that made a host of listeners take sudden notice

pink stallone has been labeled everything from house to disco to garage r&b, but this concept project can only truly be defined by unique personality. a collaboration between fresh-faced new jersey producer, daniele barbarosa, and seasoned newark vocalist joey washington, pink stallone tracks are often marked by a concoction of classic songwriting sensibility with curious yet tasteful new instrumental landscapes. dancing in time, the followup to their self-released sleazoid funk anthem the six, wanders off into a dreamy-house domain, marked especially by additional production efforts from vietcong discos eddie mars

we met fred ventura in 2006 over emails sent to italians do it better headquarters. he was one of the first people from europe to start writing the label prior to after darks release. it took us a few months to realize that this was fred ventura, the cult italo legend from milan. like a true gentleman, he had never bothered to mention it. since the early 1980s fred ventura has released numerous singles in europe & toured the world extensively as a solo artist. last year, johnny was in bologna on tour with desire & fred came out to the show to drink champagne & bring us some copies of the reissued tapes of fred’s early post punk group state of art. the lightbulb lit up & we asked him if he had any home recordings of his solo work. months later, he sent us 83 tracks of cassette recordings between 1982 & 1987. they had been sitting upstairs in a dusty box at his parents house in italy for the last 25 years. these tracks have only been heard by a handful of his closest friends. we were completely floored & honored! finding a beautiful treasure completely untouched & preserved is so rare. the songs are raw & honest written by a romantic with a love for an anthemic chorus & a drum machine running through his veins. think early minimal depeche mode with an italian heart. ornew order covering madonna produced moroder. yes, its that good. here we have the first official italians do it better release of these songs on a 4 song 12inch ep. this vinyl only release is a teaser for the >dont give up< 18 track lp out in a couple of months. so in the meantime, slip on those gucci loafers, rev up the alfa romeo and head down to the discotheque because life is too short

moody melodic synth patterns, stripped back electronic percussion and haunting hypnotic vocals. may i present the latest masterpiece from reuben tobias: portraits ep. a finely balanced deep underground pop release that will no doubt hold the attention of such names as troxler and jamie jones. the structure, complex enough to hold interest but simple enough to maintain elegance, takes you on a journey through the mind of reuben tobias as you listen attentively to every word of the self expressive lyrics. the b side lead, marran, shares very much the similar characteristics as portraits. minus the lyrics, marran uses subtly layered electronic synths and the comforting sound of young children playing outside to suck you down into a place of complete concentration. your focus becomes stuck in fascination for the sounds guiding you through the duration of the track right to the last second. a brilliant ep. not one for the clubs but certainly one for the collection.

nice price deal !!! here today aka florian schirmacher & engin oeztuerk grace claqueurs records with their >down here ep<. including remixes by ian pooley and andreas baumecker & gökhan demiray.

the index is a project by two of new york city s underground music pioneers, raz mesinai aka badawi and dub war founder dave q. the label centers on original badawi productions at the intersection of dub and modern composition, as well as new works and remixes by some of the most forward-thinking artists at the outer limits of dubstep and experimental electronica. the first release was 2010 s head-melting el topo / dstry all pfrfts team-up with shackleton, and this second entry finds badawi reviving new york s dystopian hip hop lineage via a collaboration with the legendary mc sensational of jungle brothers and wordsound fame. no schnitzel is a militant, mind-bending half-step rhythm that sensational weaves in and out of, creating a new form of dubstep-hip hop hybrid with a unique bad apple flavor. the dubbed-out version strips it down to the instrumental roots, while flipside more schnitzel goes deeper into abstracted acid dubstep for the more adventurous soundsystem selectors.

disco classic , limited

after his guinness world record, the album and the locarno film festival prize-winning feature film ivory tower, the single never stop chosen by apple for their ipad ad and the inter-planetary video hit you can dance with its near 1 million you tube views, the musical genius brings us a limited edition of symphonic spoken word

for the first album ever being released on ki we invited biodub, a producer/dj from the north of germany, who impressed us with his fusion of dub, techno, electronica and is a musician throughout. bringing in his experience as the drummer of instrumental band noetics and based on a minimalistic foundation, his tracks are playful in a microscopically way. in between deep bass lines and characteristic dub chords, various sounds coming from field recording sessions and sometimes also acoustic instruments, making this piece of music extremely warm and alive. biodub tries to transform visual impressions into his music. he finds most of these impressions in nature but sometimes also in machines or buildings in connection with their environment. the album is equally comfortable on the dance floor as in the living room. but you would rather enjoy his music on an open field in the nature than on your couch. the album will be released as a full 2 x12 inch lp, and cd in folded hardcover with photography, graphic and layout coming from ki s amélie kai and since it leaves so much space for interpretation, there will be a 12 inch-single with remixes of stereociti and koi.

supported by richie hawtin, monika kruse, mihalis safras, kombinat100 and many more ....crunchy beats and bouncy basses – no doubt, this is electronic dance music. but the extensive way in which classical instruments are deployed on acker number 23 cant be described as a simple sampling play any more. rather a fiery mixture of rhythmic electronic thrust and the thrilling atmosphere of handmade music is created. >solo para mi< is based on a functional yet driving groove on which a wind player arrangement unfolds, progressively escalating to ever new atmospheric peaks. mollono.bass takes up the summery-warm tone colours of the original in his remix but keeps it a little more dreamy and subliminal. >bulgarian chicks< is stronger orientated towards the electronic elements but still also here there are instrumental and vocal entries which lend to this title a very unconventional gipsy style. finally another remix on >solo para mi< by eule:nhaupt and molle:nhauer puts emphasis on the song-orientated components of the original, taking its hybrid character even further. supported by gorge, douglas greed, luciano, mihalis safras, the glitz, kombinat100 and many more

incarnations are back with an overwhelming 12 inch, just in time for the summer. remix action comes from ilya santana and his trademark spacediscopop, wareika bringing the deepness and rayko offering a shot of synth-driven discoid eighties. >meet me at midnight< is an exquisite hand-crafted pop piece, where you can clearly hear echoes of america (the band, not the continent), among many other things. it has summer written all over it and allow us to say that is the kind of song that makes you a better person.
ilya santana takes the original and drives it deep into space, without losing its amazing pop feel. wareika take over >make you mine< and bring it deeper than deep, close to maurizio, in a superb remix. and last but not least, madrids own edit maestro rayko shows us his powerful approach to the song getting the most out of his synth collection!

the newly crowned dutch emporium of all things disco tinged swiftly presents a second round of vinyl-only gems - commencing with the classic philly disco boogie strains of >just cant get enough< which contains just the right amount of deviations into sonic filtration. complementing this is the instrumental boogie heat of >lets go swingin< which fully demonstrates the majestys pleasure talent for slicing and dicing the groove. turn over for the insistent chugging sounds of >tainted binary< which unfolds brilliantly into a string heavy disco epic. the best is perhaps saved for last as >didnt mean to dub u off< reveals itself as a crystalline filled excursion into 80s proto house excellence.
