man power his raw electronic sound, organic flourishes and diverse selection make him a perfect match for dgtl, both on stage as well as on the imprint. next to releasing a steady flow of records on established labels like esp institute, optimo trax, correspondant and hivern discs, man power is running his own shop as well: me me me. this gives him an outlet to release music by both friends and himself. for his release on dgtl records he created a three-track ep called apologue ep, that showcases just two of different sides of his multi-faceted musical scope. the a-side features two firm, acid influenced tracks. the first of these two, the duelist, is an emotive house record, with a soundscape of piano melodies, synths and syncopated percussion laid on top of an acid bassline. el mago del tiempo features heavy hitting kicks combined with a sharp synth pattern. it has a long build up that keeps evolving throughout the entire composition. halfway through, the track breaks in to a raw and fierce rhythm accompanied by yearning, drawn-out synth pads. on the flipside, put your hands on the car (and get ready to die) brings back memories of a long gone past with nods to balearic pop, ebm, and the soundtrack work of stewart copeland, james horner, and jan hammer. this multi layered production has a warm and analogue sounding feel to it that rounds off a 3 dimensional release.

2018 repress , four timeless killer tracks from nick holder reissued by deep & roll for their first release. reminiscin ep pays tribute to the diversity of house music that the canadian producer has put together over the years. starting with *a word from mr prince* and its 70s jazz-funk grooves, the second track *feelin sad* shifts into a deeper and more emotional atmosphere. face b features disco floor filler *eddies groove* and the insane combination between freaky vocals and pumpin bassline on *phat track*.

superb three tracks killer. the a-side, both minimal and masterful, hits all the right spots whilst the flip has a vaguely familiar bassline in amongs its minimal house leanings that sucks you dry. nice one

he s back. discotronic doyen around7 returns to robsoul with three more pearly parisian jams that range from warm filtered soul to cheeky b-boy rave. we kick off with the woman behind me . a great mood-setter with a stately jack, it unfolds with a walking bassline and a sweetly filtered sample that opens up with wide flourishes on the peak.it s backed by the broken funk of u talkin to me . loopy, leftfield and prone to drop into sudden acid house switch, this will stop the talking and get everyone listening. finally we have philter . a certified hypnotiser with insistent rolling kicks, a swinging piano sample and wavey vocal loop, it s another instant lockdown from one of the most understated and class-a parisian groove sculptors we know. warm and bumping, just how we like it.... it s looking like 2018 could be another fine year for robsoul.

this is the 2nd installment of sable noir recordings: the jojoe ep, a 4 track vinyl exploring a deeper, sometimes darker minded side of the 170 spectrum.
the first 2 tracks by jojoe are some really deep, clean, and strong tunes, and also dancefloor destroyers, we saved them for years until finding the right idea to release them and this is whats happening now with this vinyl.
the first track “untitled” is a deep and dark minimalistic tune with a really strong bassline and some great cuts that makes it a fantastic dj tool for your sets.
the second track “97” is a clean and deep tune driven by some analog pads and a reese bass that will make a great job on any systems! watch out for the switch in the second drop!
the 2 tracks on the b-side are by joakuim the first one “to chant down babylon” is a halftempo dub influenced tune @ 170 bpm with a strong vocal sample and dubby bassline! the last track “snow” leads you onto a world of deep and cold atmospheres with a rolling beat and bassline!
this vinyl is done in the memory of joe holland, beloved friend and music producer. this ep is done for him!
