12 Inch

the seventh release in this series opens up with dr. shingo’s remix of “malaria” on the a-side - a beautifully crafted downtempo version which skilfully dissolves the techno spirit of the original in crystal-clear electronic soul music with an epic build up. staffan linzatti’s remix of “spiegelkerker” on a2 is a futuristic and minimal interpretation of the original, with a sturdy drum pattern, topped with an alluring blend of bleeps and spaced- out synth tones.the b-side kicks off with stanislav tolkachev’s remix of “the future is on fire pt. 1” - a raw and sinister industrial monster with a bold noize overload.b2 is a remastered version of the classic club hit “the future is on fire pt. 1” by the mastermind christian morgenstern himself.

12.10.16
yoruba records is proud to present this new album by label veterans nomumbah. hailing from sao paulo, this three piece consists of andré torquato, ale reis and rafael moraes. with this release, nomumbah show a great deal of maturity, a mark often only surpassed with the release of a sophomore album. the track ‘words’ will strike a familiar chord with listeners, its clever use of maya angelou’s reading of her timeless ‘still i rise’ fits perfectly over the top of a deep bass and bongo driven groove. ‘meinhaus’ is another beautifully crafted track, one that seemingly pays tribute to chicago’s earliest fathers of deep house while still keeping a certain swing that will set it apart on dance floors today. ‘precious’, a definite future favourite, features a cutting lead synth that adds warmth to the track and is accompanied by crystal clear hi-hat bursts and a simple, yet captivating, vocal. this album’s title track, ‘amanha’, edges on tech house with stripped down percussion, a simple rolling bass line and a pulsing lead synth, perfect for setting a more chilled-out vibe. a deep and at times techy release, djs will find all 10 tracks well suited for the late night into early morning hours. featuring rhythmic, chunky bass lines, ambient keys and radiant backing vocals this soon-to-be yoruba classic is a must have for your kit bag in 2016
DAHLIA EP
12 Inch

alessandro diga, a young talented dutch artist, delivers 3 solid techno tracks for the fifth release on the bergwacht record label. “phaedra” starts with a great bassline and goes into a warm melodic techno track with a lot of emotions, dreamy synths and it goes along with a clear hihat. the track is able to be dreamy and not cheesy at the same time. “sonora” is grounded on a rolling bassline and clear hi-hats as well, it goes over in nice effects with outstanding breaks, but it finds back to the starting rhythms. “dahlia” the hidden b-2 track transmits a deep journey with melancholic feelings.

IN DREAMS (INCL. RSS DISCO REMIX)
12 Inch
10.10.16
one sided vinyl with silkscreened b side, comes in clear sleeve with poster numbered, edition of 350 dreams really come true: when we heard tomemitsu s beautiful lo-fi indie songs on the cassette -m_o_d_e_s- back in 2013 we fell in love! especially the track -in dreams- followed us around for months. humming it in the subway, singing along in the car. many dreams later we found out that our friend and fellow hamburger stefan marx also loves the song and even named an art show after it. coincidence? surely not, so together we made the plan to release -in dreams- on vinyl. luckily tomemitsu himself was very happy with the idea and even allowed rss disco to remix the song. the notorious dj and production trio upped the tempo to head-spinning 99bpm, recorded additional drums & bass and added several minutes of pleasure. finally, the two tracks will be released on vinyl for the first time. screen-printed records, including a poster in a clear sleeve. music by tomemitsu, designed by stefan marx, remixed by rss disco, released by mireia records. it s all a dream!
CROSSING 007
12"
04.10.16
crossing returns with cracking and dreamy techno from pfirter, avion, doka and stefan rein. the label from avion strikes with its 7th installment releasing a package of 4 new techno slices from different producers showing what crossing stands for. the release starts with ‘sut‘ a track from the argentinian producer pfirter which creates an outer atmosphere with its pad, surrounding percussions and space running frequencies carried by this straight deep bass drum. a beauty. avion doesn’t take any captives and kicks the floor with a never ending trip of industrial percussions, noises, a heavy drum and a groove that will grab and never leave you. an explosive killer. for doka time is running in a different way. his ‘mural‘ comes with a melancholic bassline and rhythmic drum work to bring this imaginery painting from the wall into notes. surreal but true techno. stefan rein is closing the release with a bang. the ‘amorphous material‘ will never get tired and brings with metallic snares, hats and rides a kick’in weapon which includes a synth pad that will give you a smile in every moment you hear it. a clear definition of techno and its madness.
jonas friedlich, better known through mistress recordings and carl gari, releases his first solo 12- on molten moods. the versatile 4 track ep starts with the rather straight -bo s breakfast- that begins with a polyrhythmic 303 bass line leading into a catchy garage-ish chorus, kicking in out of a clear sky but fittingly. -bus driver- is a wicked trip, the combination of the long acid build up and a nicely chopped vocal bit is irresistible. a proven, tested (and molten moods certified) club banger, regardless of its rather untypical breakbeat. track number 3 called -praise your name- aces groove through perfectly cut vocal samples and a fancy reference to 90s hip hop and drum n bass aesthetics. the next and last piece on the record is the eponymous -deskjet-, which is inspired by friedlichs conceptual sound art installations using printers. here rather restrained synthie lines are underpinned by a powerful kick and psychedelic tape delay noises. the 12- vinyl is handstamped on both sides. mastered and cut by scape mastering. artwork by paul bernhard.

2x12 Inch LP + CD
23.09.16
auf departed glories gelingt dem norwegischen electronic-produzenten und ambient-guru geir jenssen alias biosphere eine eindringliche klangatmosphäre, die mit worten nicht zu erklären ist. die entrückten tracks erhalten ihre kontur durch den hintergrund, vor dem das album entstanden ist. das bild des covers ist vor mehr als hundert jahren von dem russischen fotografen sergei prokudin-gorsky, einem pionier der farbfotografie, aufgenommen worden. es zeigt eine armenische frau in einer landschaft, die heute zur türkei gehört. the crystal clear yet haunting atmosphere fascinated me, erklärt biosphere, was ausschlaggebend für die atmosphäre des albums war. hinzu kommt seine recherche während eines aufenthalts in polen, krakau: das psychologische trauma der mittelalterlichen königin bronislawa, die sich mit ein paar nonnen in den bäumen vor den tataren versteckte, bildet die inspirierende grundlage von departed glories. diese elemente und die hinzunahme einiger klangschnipsel ukrainischer und polnischer volksmusik formen den gespenstischen, in mark und bein übergehenden charakter des werkes.

SPEAK TO ME (LP)
12 Inch LP
16.09.16
beginning from the abstractions of their self-titled debut release in 2004, the group embarked on a trajectory that saw them move toward near-song structures, tricoli’s voice becoming a dominant element amid an increasingly dense and layered production style. on speak to me, however, the listener feels confronted by the ghost of music, sonic memories echoing across a psychedelic expanse. evacuated of any clear structure, the music becomes a reverb-saturated morass, from which crystalline details momentarily emerge: shimmering echoed guitar, bowed double bass, tactile hand percussion, skittering electronics. suffused with a darkly pensive atmosphere, speak to me is an elegant summation of the distinctive blend of electroacoustic techniques, instrumental improvisation and contemporary psychedelia pioneered by 3/4hadbeeneliminated over the last decade

the flawed wonders that yair elazar glotman puts forth on his latest opus i know no weekend are the coldest dreams you would ever wish to immerse yourself in. they recall echoes of echoes, forced into slowly struggling shapes, ghosts of memories, whispers of life from another dimension. shamanic-repetitive beats shift slowly beneath echoing bells and fragments of past transmissions. overwhelmingly, one is taken into upon a winding mental path, with no clear resolution in sight, although the journey is ever-evolving and new.

CIRCADIAN ATTRACTION EP / JANERET REMIX
12 Inch
30.06.16
laate is the new project of clayton guifford (unrelated / fragil). for this second release, we are very glad to welcome - the black tone - (rawthencity / appian).- circadian attraction e<p - is just as ethereal as abyssal tone records, where nagging mpc s swing and reverberation s effects are placing great emphasis on minimalist compositions, strictly dedicated to the dancefloor.on a side: - circadian attraction ep - is backed by a dynamic rhythm with analog tones. a meticulous architecture temple where time stop. a techno recital of limpid beauty gliding on a groovy bassline that will make every soundsystem whirr.on b1: - aquatic redox - is a plunging us into deep submarine daydreams. a digital bath with salty taste and hypnotic dampness. everything is a quiet, question & answers between the different elements are bouncing over and over in the atmosphere, constantly captivating the attention. a perfect balance between strength and subtlety. finally on b2, - aquatic redox - s remix is released by the famous producer: janeret (rutilance /aku). after an -haute-couture- intro, slightly breaked, we find in this remix the galactic synths typical of the talented young parisian’s repertoire. clear, precise and extremely mastered, this rework put everyone in agreement on the dancefloor.
not too long ago a jiffy bag arrived at parkwest hq. in it was a scratched tdk case with a sa-x tape containing a musical message from years past, simply marked the tape i lost! we sat and listened, able to pinpoint influence and reference but yet hearing something totally new. that this tape surfaced and made it across the years and the miles to us was fortunate. when the synth part came through clear on a later version on the tape, allowing us to remix then it became destiny. emotion, melody and rhythm will always be timeless and these tracks, selected from that tape, are as relevant today as they ever were.
HIGH TENSION EP (INCL GATHASPAR RMX)
12 Inch
24.06.16
british producer reformed society is on a steadfast mission to dig deeper by going against the grain, standing up to the status quo and daring to do something different. a self proclaimed goal that is easily noticeable in his first release for “made of concrete”, wherein he reveals three original tracks and a remix by gathaspar, one of the label’s regulars. kicking things off with “high tension”, a high strung stripped back piece with an aerial feel, the artist builds up the entire mood of the ep from scratch. a clear-cut, steady groove whose versatility makes it relevant as an intro, outro or interlude. gathaspar’s rausch remix is a sub-bassy reinterpretation of the initial piece, filled with contorted whirs and whizzes that give the track a sub- aquatic feel. on “volgende halte”, the opening vocal sample shifts from a seemingly conventional soundbite to a recurringly haunting snippet that remains etched into the listener’s brain. rhythmical rolling pads galvanize the groove, making for an eerie yet relaxed overall vibe. movement inducing from the get go, final offering “orbiting jupiter” centers around wavering bass leads, while playing on a blend of spacious synths and timbered percussion patterns.

DONT STOP / DO IT AGAIN
12 Inch
08.06.16
nycs legendary sam records dropped the mysteriously named k.i.d.s dont stop- in 1981. it has it all trancey arpeggios, vocoders & vocals trading off with each other, brass & some heavyweight disco drums that helped propel it forth into the hallowed category of club classic. the record perfectly suited the open minds and open ears of discerning disc jocks in locales such as new york and chicago where this sublime piece of electronic disco sleaze would get plenty burn on the city s infamous wbmx thus having a huge impact, along with a whole host of other similar records, on the burgeoning house scene that was germinating in the fertile mid western soil. b-side cut do it again is a pleasant enough early 80 s disco jam, but compared to the futuristic burner that is dont stop on the other side theres one clear winner. a must have for all cosmic, disco, funk aficionados. now made available again, legitimately licensed, remastered and reissued in conjunction with sam records new york city.
ts10 is the 1st ep of the toneseries project. born from the collaboration between french music producer, live performer and dj - david k, and lumièreslanuit s co-founder and an der grenze s founder - edouard morin. however, it isn t clear which artist from their extended crew stands behind this 1st release, as if the berlin-based music label wanted to focus on the music rather on the artist. ts10 consists of two tracks, both deep and groovy. whereas ailleurs disseminates the perfect warm-up groove, desert snowflakes fires off a more dancefloor-driven vibe. with regard to the artwork, as shown on the cover, each track has its own colour. there is neither a a nor a b-side. the same applies to the record vinyl itself. each track stands on it own. as a result, ailleurs and desert snowflakes distinguish themselves from each other through their vibes and colours, although they remain in the same spirit. in summary, toneseries brings together the idea of interdependence between music and design: what colour follows on from music and, in return, which musicality comes out of colours.
EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE

for their tenth release, voodoo down has again chosen to debut a new act to add to their label roster. andy harper and nic ford have been making music together for over a decade but began releasing in earnest under the name maddermodes in 2014 on their own label, shift coordinate points. they have since put out records on the labels millions of moments and night drive music. their handful of releases have already drawn support from top names like move d and nick höppner, and its clear that the duos sound is only getting more refined with each successive record. the ep entitled emprical evidence is a wholly cinematic piece of work, spread across four tracks that unravel slowly, unified by a theme of pumping syncopated rhythms under sprawling pad and string progressions. its easy to get lost in the thick arrangements, and the inventive use of samples and melodic elements invite repeat listening. equally suitable for early morning hours, ultra-deep techno sets, or quiet home listening sessions.

london modular alliance is the raw and unpredictable music project from the uk’s best known, dedicated modular synth shop london modular. its members simon lynch, phil ventre and gavin pykerman met through a shared passion in modular synthesisers. impromptu gatherings and jams soon turned into live performances at clubs, festivals and museums. from the hushed environs of the tate modern and v&a to vast sweatboxs such as fabric, bloc, freerotation, weather and berghain, london modular clearly have a flair for all things modular. this year sees a return to bloc weekender as well as new adventures at festivals such as dekmantel. they create an intense live show with a huge setup of self-assembled modular gear. every set starts with one small looping beginning – a patch – and is expanded into a deep sonic landscape. with the use of cables they build unexpected circuits and explore the power of pure electronic sounds without the use of a digital software infrastructure. no laptops, no button pushing, everything is created on the spot using modular synthesizers and is based on live improvisations. overall lma tries to keep its live sets in the dark: unrecorded, off the internet and only for those who are present in the moment. a clear break with the capture-all mentality of the internet age.

paris-based beat x changers brings up to you a new record with a collaborative project in the shape of classic cuts.our new release introduces two new french artists brought together on a split ep: tell from paris and name from the sunny avignon city, both of them backed- up by exclusive remixes from three of our historical beat x producers: neue grafik and pulkone (aka x_1 & monomite). on the a-side, discover tell - a 20-year old jazz drummer - who releases two soulful and melodic tracks. you’ll recognize the heat of the mpc grain, obsessing samples and uplifting breaks. on the b-side, southern producer name offers a disco-like and funky house music via two dancing tracks with a clear reference to the clubbing universe of new york and chicago. this activist dj and experimented producer – he is an ableton teacher on the side – gained recognition in the south of france music scene in the last decade and reached the ears of producer kink.grand Écart (i.e. wide gap or split) recalls the time it took to release this ep. it’s also a geographical gap, a gap between the ideas of the five artists brought together on this release, a gap between our expectations and the reality of some passed – or cancelled – venues in paris. we have always believed in this project and in our flexibility!
THE REFLEX REVISIONS
12 Inch
13.05.16
wah wah 45s return to the 12- format to bring you three incredible re-works from french disco don the reflex, for our very own legendary canadian/haitian keyboard wiz henri-pierre noel. funky spider dance is a percussion heavy bomb filled to the brim with henri s soaring piano licks and infectious female vocal hooks. the reflex has taken what was already a sure-fire club favourite, and created something of a dance floor destroyer. his rework of a fifth of beethoven takes its time to build into another heavy hitter. as the beats make way for henri s deft keyboard flourishes, the recognition of this cover of the walter murphy classic (taken from the saturday night fever soundtrack) begins to dawn - and as it does, it s clear that once again the dream team of hpn and the reflex have worked their magic! last, but certainly not least, the reflex s revision of back home..., sweet home is a modern island funk masterpiece with organ and tropical guitar riffs making way for sunny brass stabs all underpinned by foot friendly beats. the original versions of funky spider dance and back home..., sweet home can be found on henri s one more step lp, and his take of a fifth of beethoven was recently available on 7-inches of wax - all on wah wah 45s of course. the reflex revisions all appear here together on vinyl, in fact anywhere, for the very first time!

nearly a year after his acclaimed debut ep, every inch of you, a musical project meant as an ode to the memory of a once great man, his grandfather, the enigmatic, rosas nievas, steps up to the plate with a sophomore outing for scissor and thread, going away soon on the a-side, the bombastic opener, wastes no time getting its feet moving with charged up percussion, guitar licks, and playful sampling with a clear ode to the likes of matthew herbert.

bryan kessler is not a musician, he is a force of nature. the young talent’s refreshing perspective on electronic club music shows a love for powerful sounds that so many other producers are lacking these days. something that he was already able to proof on releases for get physical (remixed by dj hell), coméme, low hanging fruit and like records. the release starts with you look like trunks, a heavily driving, desert inspired piece that makes clear that kessler grew up in rock music. his second track vegeta charges up with a red-glowing synth lead that eventually explodes in a wave of youngster mayhem. teens are still doing it! the b side is dedicated to ludwig zibell’s remixes of both tracks that continue kessler’s energy with precision and warmth. his b1 remix releases a flock of tarantulas that set the clock to peak time, while b2 adds psychedelic loops to the drive of the original. this is the fourth vinyl release of supermoll from köln. rooted somewhere between a sound of cologne legacy, german experimental kraut attitudes and dirty acid vibes from oversea. 150 hand numbered copies w/ illustration by paula prandini
