if chicago and detroit are the cities in which house and techno were born and raised, it was in italy circa 1990 that this delirious party music experienced a piano-driven coming of age. so far, so spangled. but while that may be the official story, there are other italian narratives too. take francois le roy and nanni for instance - two djs and producers from southern italy for whom, in the early nineties, the likes of aphex twin, autechre and air liquide were important, alongside the machine funk of detroit and the immersive soundtracks of the ambient generation. both artists are steeped in underground club music, and their new release on shabby doll records is a fine example of tough, tech-edged house. the *crossing roads* ep features four tracks that showcase their melodic yet relentless groove, they may be based in milan, but on this record, the influence of detroit, chicago and new york runs deep.

raw house vibes on clone royal oak by rio padice and massimo di lena. absolute belter!! after six month its back in stock

venezuelan-born miguel toro is an impulse generator: a versatile drummer and percussionist. rhythm is his motor, but rhythm here does not just denote a motion within a certain beat. rather it means a fundamental, ever changing pulse, vibration, resonance. inspired by aesthetic forms as intense and diverse as the jungle of sounds ascending from his royal dust, miguel toro succeeds in giving them an extraordinary voice.

as the rumors tell, this obscure piece of music was arranged by three acquaintances, who, by mere coincidence, formed a spontaneous, poly-toxic think tank one marvellous sunday morning, celebrating the beauty of old house music, while at the same time mocking the somehow cheap and predictable functionality of the four to the floor sound design. to honor the inspirational value of situations like these, the decision was made to share the result with a bigger audience. as a meta text, the lyrics form a tongue in cheek comment on nostalgic good old days aesthetics, and are simultaneously, and quite paradoxically, reminiscent of the utopian and transgressive vision of early house and techno music. if there is anything that we can retrieve from this vision today, it is the encouragement to create funny, pleasant and playful situations for ourselves and the like-minded, escaping the seriousness and boredom of the professionalized party and music business. and this is exactly the spirit, which is materialized on this piece of wax.

les appointment royale is the seventh quest of the appointment program. 4 organic tracks of mesmerizing techno, ranging from condensed house somnambulism to electrostatic power outages, designed to provoke severe transient faults on the dancefloors

a made up sound aka 2562 and dexter deliver two remixes for arttu featuring jerry the cat. nuclear funk and get up off it get transformed from raw chicago influenced cuts into darker electro/techno hybrids by these two dutch techno wizzards. both known for their sharp productions that cross over between techno, electro and bass music they have a fresh take on the original versions. by the choice of remixers we didnt expect the standard house remixes, something more challenging would fit the spirit of the originals. this remix 12 inch might be is somewhat of a dark horse in the house orientated clone royal oak catalogue, but expectations are to there be messed up.

the rastafarian roots reggae singer brings a majestic touch to the songs he sings, which are deeply infused with his beliefs. with a sense of reverence that only a solemn, pious man as prince alla could put into song, this collection centres on tracks recorded at lee perry-s black ark studio. having spent his early days living in rasta camps & working as a singer for joe gibbs, it was at greenwich farm that prince alla (born keith blake) crossed paths with tapper zukie who was so blown away by alla-s songs he initiated the recording sessions. this release compiles those songs & their extended versions alongside 3 classic extra cuts, -hail rastafari-, -black roses- & the sublime -royal throne room-.

when primal scream s exterminator – or xtrmntr – came out in 2000 as the last album on alan mcgee s legendary creation records it made quite a stir. mcgee must have told the scream to let the label go out with a bang , and boy did they deliver.

la fleurs certified hit, the flowerhead ep, launched her power plant records imprint into the stratosphere in 2010. following the flowerhead ep would be no easy task, but its one that young danish talent jesper ryom takes in his stride. the second chapter of power plant records story exists within jesper ryoms refined musical universe, where samples and live guitar merge and mesh for a kaleidescopic whole thats greater than its parts. as ryom drifts in a dream-dance state, he delves further into sonic experimentation, but is ever mindful of the dancer and the dj.

reggie dokes returns to his second home... clone royal oak, with 3 amazing tracks. emotional and passioned house tracks that come straight from the heart! raw, unpolished music... just as we like it! title track once again has received a remix treatment by two young dutch producers called morning factory. these guys show the same passion for their productions as reggie, and they delivered a great edit version that added some extra energy to the original mix (which is not on this record... might come later). a combination send from heaven! another clone royal oak that will stay in the box for a loooong time!
