pittsburghs most loved sons, the modey lemon, rip through 3 years of silence with their new record, season of sweets. with one foot in the sci fi darkness of their last record curious city, one foot in their past garage angst ridden wreckage and one foot in the kautrock brilliance of the german frontier (what, three feet?) season of sweets is a fuzzed out, driving masterpiece with catchy hooks beaten to death by guitar / synth mayhem and the anchor of paul quattrones drums of passion. as primitive as it is futuristic, modey lemon is recreating the present, molecule by molecule, every second of every breath. the trio from pittsburgh returns with another helping of sugary sweetness that rots your teeth and leaves you wanting more. recorded during the dead of winter in pittsburgh, pa at the brass factory. mixed and recorded by jason kirker, member and principal noisemaker. the last 2 years have been very, very interesting for the band. after signing with mute recording in the uk and playing the granddaddy of all venues, the fillmore opening for dinosaur jr., the band took some time away to regroup and work on new material. the result is season of sweets. driven by drummer extraordinaire paul quattrone, the songs twist and turn through the imagery and dark rock that has made modey lemon famous. jason kirker (engineer and band member) uses various keyboards, moogs and instruments to make the sound more full. at the heart of this album is the energy and mysticism singer phil boyd leads you on. track number 5, become a monk is the more pop oriented and accessible track, with a great back beat and bass.

unknownmix was a band active in zürich between 1983 and 1992. their music is a mixture of free vocalism, new wave and industrial, they released five lps and three eps. out of their discography lux rec selected four tracks, remastered from the original tapes, and presented as a sampler ep. four tracks that fit perfectly to the label’s tonal view. an ode to those zürich days, when excesses and uncompromising choices were a badge of honour. and music was something to fight for, or fight with, or dive in and die.

origine rec is the music part of my new concept mixing music & fashion. it s a -vinyl only- label influenced by the underground house scene, with the desire to propose my own production and various artists i love and respect. -for the 1st release, i wanted to include -riviera- a track from my childhood friend unknyo, which he produced 5 years ago -the track called -les bains- was produced by me (saull) & unknyo. the title comes from the place where we met 13 years ago in paris, les bains douches. -to remix riviera, terence terry was an evidence: his style combines authenticity and musical signature, nothing better to spice a record. -not to mention a track dedicated to my lovely wife and first support -ju lya-.

savage grounds return to lux rec for the third time, with their third record. atrocities comes after unpleasant music for unpleasant people, released in 2015, and over fences, 2014. it is, as much as the previous 2, the result of investigations in music, live, composed with a minimum amount of instruments. the duo, comprised of cco and daniele cosmo, worked with a roland 606, a roland 909 and a modular synthesiser. experimenting with fm modulation and loose sequences. the result is concrete noise, anger, ghostly voices, and above all, the sheer conscience of human failures. atrocities marks number 30 in the lux rec catalogue. it comes as a 12inch + 7inch package.

two big italian house groover

mace. appearances are scarce. as his music is. scarce, dirty, brown and miserable, as the bunker guys would say. a mechanical reflection, not a choice of soothing harmonics. not melodious structures. the survival of the fittest, harsh economics, suicidal stock brokers, piling up as much as possible before leaving. these are four things everyone will be talking about today. and so lux rec does. the last piece is a joint venture together with diana berti of veleno viola .

it s a first for pinkman and lux rec. yet the two labels have so much in common that it isn t surprising they have been drawn towards each other. and the rosa luxembourg files is the result of this collaboration. rotterdam and zurich, ian martin and barbir & nicola kazimir, exploring different shades of the same black, wandering at the fringes, plunging into obscurity and machines talk. there s no rest and no comfort, but manic fixation.

morah comes from athens and his record on lux rec mirrors this magnificent, spendid, decadent, rotten and grimy metropolis. a long journey into the greek maze. unsettling at times, not without fear or dismay. and those noises coming from a great distance away, are of fools, demented, lunatics. we invite you to join the chant.

text4 cuts of deep, minimal and mesmerising techno, perfect to move the dance floor in those especially early hours.

lux rec shifts again its attention to greece. prosopo is junes newest alias, and means face disturbed microcosm where to experiment with different machines, unconventional textures and rhythms. the result is as uncomfortable as it gets, arid desires, despair concealed with cold resonating motives. we do not celebrate joy.a fast descent into a deserted heart. a feverish feeling, much like when it is warm and one still shivers. annoyed greek gods playing tricks on human

the first r&b rec record is born from the encounter of two artists in the gloomy baltimore of the beginning of the millennium, after years in which their artistic roads proceeded in a very much parallel manner, without ever physically crossing paths, driven by their passion for analog instrumentation and the desire to find and create new rhythmics and sounds. it is in 2013 the two decide to join their forces to create their own personal vision of techno music and dance music in general. resulting in a hot and scratchy vinyl that combines dark, percussion sounds well known from detoit techno, with the sought after rhythmic of breakbeat and drum and base, of the british nineties. also packed with influences of acid-house, this record incorporates features of the so influential 80 s punk era, finally sinking it s roots in the psychedelic currents of the 70 s. the result is a brand new genre which is difficult, if not impossible to define. a unique way of defining dance music, in all its aspects, which is identified under the name of spaceship surgery techno.

following the great ep from doomwork, italy strike back with the duo reform! two guys who joined their mind together to create music, testing new electronic paths, playing with external machines to creates their own sounds, after only one release and one track on a compilation you can see that the duo have a lot to say into techno. reform bring here with “chaotic dimension“ a very complete release who take from techno madness with chaotic dimension to deep techno for extremis passing by a super funky vibe for dancewear with this vocal who drives you, to end with treasure who deliver a mind blowing experience.

quartz rec is pleased to welcome the duo doomwork based in rome and well known for them amazing groove, there music is emotive and immersive with melodies and riff locked into rolling rhythms and subtle atmospherics.and its with no surprise that they are coming with an outstanding ep on quartz rec, first track « nihil sine sole » super trippy track with some great congas slowly and this beautiful pad building a great atmosphere. second track « memento » getting more into deep techno with class, tracks talk for itself. we have also two remixes, first one is from ambivalent who deliver a big stomper techno mix ready to smash the dance floor, second is from ness who bring a driving techno track melt with the pad from the original who will make lose yourself.

every song done by keith & tex had absolutely trusted in those qualities, and these laid back and relaxing tunes are no exception. on a-side features a mid-tempo rocksteady and the flip side is their cover version of temptations’ 1968 hit.

ubuntu means *i am because we are*. ubuntu rec is the brain child of federico grazzini, an interactive open space where to share music and any form of art, with friends like-minded and whoever is interested in this modern laboratory. first vinyl is a collection of secret weapon played during the season, raw tracks produced by the newcomer e-dward!, double dash and federico himself.

as the d edge label clocks up release number 24, it turns to the phil hinter ensemble for a fantastic three track package that is filled with fresh house vibes. phil hinter ensemble is a joint project by phil s main pillars philogresz and german simon hinter. they have ties with labels like their own phil, love unlimited vibes and of course d-edge. previous eps have gone down well around the world and simon hinter s smart grooves and sample based fill-ins blends with the wombastic bass and shivering synth lines of philogresz perfectly. up first is the owl, a squelchy, synthetic house track with lively drums and chords and magical trumpets all making for a party starting track. it is perfectly arranged and expertly musical, unlike much of today s plastic and sample heavy sounds. in the air then gets even more playful with glossy synth stabs, rumbling bass and diva vocals all bouncing along in a charismatic style that is full of colour. struggle then gets intimate and final with scurrying little percussive sounds, burst of afro vocal, down low sine waves and icy snares all making for a perfectly seductive minimal techno brew

spooky , dark , energetic , acidic ,feaky techno

savage grounds are cco and daniele cosmo, co-owner of lux rec. a techno related outfit to explore a darker, noisier and more menacing sound. the ep has been realised by using only three machines. a roland 808, a modular synthesizer and a roland space echo. every track has been recorded in one take.

as he keeps busy on d edge s new sub label olga with a brand new artist album, boss man renato ratier also manages to serve up a hot new ep on the main label with dynamic regard stimming. the pair cook up two fine tracks that showcase both of their styles in all their glory. philosophy goes first and is a playful, loose limbed dance floor groover with parping blasts of sub bass, richly soulful pads and slow burning sense of crescendo that will really lift dancers up and carry them away. it is perfectly detailed and expertly produced to really jump out of the speakers and is sure to be a massive hit this summer in brazil and beyond. conscious then flips the script and slows to a perfectly seductive crawl. lazy drums, slow blasts of white noise and a poignant bassline all get backed by glowing pads and the overall effect is soothing, seductive and sensual. this is a fine ep from two very talented producers and cements a long standing relationship in style.

microtonal welcomes blaues licht. after a remix work on micro014 the guys now show up with a real bassheavy techno record. weird effects, large build-ups and some nice portions of fun for the floor. felix bernhardt rounds it up with a remix in just....well...felix-style.

a special release for a special artist this is microtraumas newest drop. after gaining lots of attention for their recent output on traum schallplatten and nick warrens sudbeat label the duo goes back to their roots and presents the juno ep. techno with emotion – maybe the best description for the originals. remix works are coming from sql (trapez, respekt, sk supreme), groj and oliver lieb (bedrock, yoshitoshi) who remixed microtraumas first big tune aktin which was released on microtonal 005.
