over the past couple of years, kellerkinds unique interpretation of house music has truly catapulted him out of the figurative basement and into the limelight. whether it was the disco-infused cool of backflash or the tribal rhythms found on his debut album basement story, through hard work, rather than by miracle, marco biagini matured into a producer who is at the top of his game.

for the 23rd release, label boss and purist botherer jerome hill steps up and delivers, possibly the maddest record on the label to date.

those who know the respected irish producer john daly for his bubbly, melodically nuanced house and techno tracks may get thrown off balance by his latest work under the smoke clears handle. while his 2011 release for further, sea level, hinted at his fondness for manuel göttsching/klaus schulze-like kosmische ambience, on listen daly veers off into more introverted and arcane abstraction terrain. the title track kicks off the album on a decidedly downtempo, contemplative note while maintaining dalys knack for understatedly beautiful melodies. it sounds like the best song morr music never released.

the relentless work ethic of dj w!ld shows no sign of slowing down with another amazing ep, this time through his own imprint the w label, that unleashes four new tracks plus a dubbed out remix. in contrast to his recent output on other labels the four tracks sit firmly in the dj tools category with stripped back arrangements, raw-to-the-bone underground house grooves and drums showcasing all that is good about the parisians highly in-demand dj sets. head-nodding tribal infused percussion is the main theme with tracks blind and miami bitch setting the scene with a brass breakdown in the latter that is sure to send shivers down spines. narco switches things up with its core element focused around a shoulder shaking bass organ straight out of the 90s. on board gets and original and re-worked dub outing with hypnotic congas and a vocal that loops inside the mind.

running back veteran mark e returns with a tribute to the uks black country and an ode to the industrial revolution. the images and histories of coal mines, steel mills and iron foundries north and west of birmingham and south and east of wolverhampton lay the foundation of the three track ep (including a work break siren). being a product of his environment, mark e delivers lots of sooty particle house music with a glimpse of sunshine. bostin!

mike gill who has already featured on roots for bloom teams up with taymor zadeh to bring us the coppin a feel ep featuring a john dimas remix. the a side *coppin a feel* brings us hard hitting groove with a hypnotic vocal line carrying the track. loose percussion and bold tom drums really cement this to work on any dance floor. the b side cut *the message* is a more rolling groove with a strong rhodes line that features later on really making the track evolve. john dimas takes *the message* and takes the atmosphere up a notch, with slick cut up vocals. this one will work in the early hours.

best known for his work on l.i.e.s and with steve summers as confused house, nik dawson aka bookworms drops an absolute banger on barcelona based label anomia. fans of the hazy textures of confused house here will be surely taken a back by the fact that the opening gambit on this ep, *mechanism* is utterly tonking. *photogenic* is another rushing weapon, while the closing track is a beautiful ambient piece. seriously killer ep, we can not recommend this enough!

a word from label boss chris farrell: this is the new one on idle hands, from us producer strategy. i first came across paul dickows work when he released a 12 inch called *world house* on his own community library label back in 2005. it blew me away. in the ensuing years my friend duncan george who promoted bristol’s best electronic music night - under_score tried on numerous ocasions to book him for a bristol date but it never quite hapened due to the usual things that go wrong in club land. in those years duncan kept in touch with paul and last year suggested to him that it might be worth sending some tracks to me, which he did at the start of 2013… add a peverelist remix and you have the tracks here before you, dub reggae informed house and psychedelic 2 step vibes.

the 12 track album was written and produced since the turn of 2013 and mixed with erol alkan at the phantasy sound, the labels own studio in london. a difficult trick to master but like carl craigs more songs about food and revolutionary art, plastikmans consumed or more recently the work of four tet, the album works as a cohesive whole rather than a disparate collection of tracks

last known trajectory proudly presents inkamera, the solo project of the multi-talented victoria lukas, who of course you may well be familiar with from her previous work as zerkalo, performing alongside the legendary gerald donald. here, the first inkamera release demonstrates victoria’s clear understanding of what constitutes a solid and balanced musical project – ‘superpartners (photon photino) ‘ and ‘&#1089,,,&#1084,,,&#1077,,,&#1088,,,&#1090,,,&#1100,,, &#1085,,,&#1077,,, &#1089,,,&#1091,,,&#1097,,,&#1077,,,&#1089,,,&#1090,,,&#1074,,,&#1091,,,&#1077,,,&#1090,,, (death doesn’t exist) ‘ are both pacey, electro drivers with a distinct european feel, the former being quite upbeat, while the latter rendering a slightly darker more sinister air. ‘i can speak’ provides a volatile contrast with its crazy, freestyle electro beats and rhythms, whilst both ‘human terms’ and ‘potentia’ showcase victoria’s quite distinctive, totally unmistakable, seductively hypnotic vocal to a backdrop of gorgeous electronics. a superb solo debut from lukas – let us hope that there are many more to follow.

the mosso imprint presents the newest addition to its catalogue. the fifth episode of the series features two newly picked, slow-­&#8208,,,,,,burning numbers. reporting alejandro mossos further travels on the fine lines drawn between awakened reverie and inspirited groove, this new record could also be considered as an adroit demonstration on how to preserve delicacy in splendor. as >islote< was slowly taking its final shape in the few weeks preceding the records mastering, alejandro mosso decided to pull. >arrecife< out from his unfinished archives. it is a beautifully stern and steely work, presenting the slow development of the main lead, giving it space to gradually appear from the fine selection of uncanny percussions and steadily met by its accentuated twin. a damper invitation to look within. on the flip, >islote< begins with a selection of colourful drums, not unfamiliar to mossos usual escapades. however, spreading itself like a most complex delicacy, the apparent sweetness of this distinctive title soon gives way to a rugged melody. conveying a sharp yet cloudy feeling, this b-­&#8208,,,,,,side is located somewhere in the middle of a soft longing and bluesy bliss. mosso places the listener into the near isolation of an island, that is still anchored to its continent. needless to say, his magic is once again well at work.the mosso imprint presents the newest addition to its catalogue. the fifth episode of the series features two newly picked, slow-­&#8208,,,,,,burning numbers. reporting alejandro mossos further travels on the fine lines drawn between awakened reverie and inspirited groove, this new record could also be considered as an adroit demonstration on how to preserve delicacy in splendor. as >islote< was slowly taking its final shape in the few weeks preceding the records mastering, alejandro mosso decided to pull. >arrecife< out from his unfinished archives. it is a beautifully stern and steely work, presenting the slow development of the main lead, giving it space to gradually appear from the fine selection of uncanny percussions and steadily met by its accentuated twin. a damper invitation to look within. on the flip, >islote< begins with a selection of colourful drums, not unfamiliar to mossos usual escapades. however, spreading itself like a most complex delicacy, the apparent sweetness of this distinctive title soon gives way to a rugged melody. conveying a sharp yet cloudy feeling, this b-­&#8208,,,,,,side is located somewhere in the middle of a soft longing and bluesy bliss. mosso places the listener into the near isolation of an island, that is still anchored to its continent. needless to say, his magic is once again well at work.

somethings are just done better when they are done together and the same can be said about soul button and sasch s latest collaborative work unfold . the two steyoyoke men have come together to show just how passionate they are about producing music that is rich with feeling and emotion.

dutch producer arts the beatdoctor is set to release his newest work, collaborating with pioneering label lowriders recordings. this ep, titled lazy thunder, marks a significant change to his trademark sound. breaking away from his former laid back style displayed on 2007s transitions (unexpected records), 2008s progressions ep (beats broke) and his releases with the q4 (project: mooncircle), this new ep continues the trend already hinted at in his recent remixes: still present are the hypnotic loops and deep atmospheres, but the setting has changed from the lounge area to the main stage

contemporary scarecrow continue with a four track ep from the acid mondays with hoffmans bumbag ep. before albert hoffman, inventor of lsd, embarked on his final trip into the ether he gathered his lifes work and zipped it into his favourite bumbag. these secrets have remained concealed until now. expect 4 dimensions of interlocking sound matrixes and shapes from this vinyl only ep.

after the last collaboration which saw them go out successfully on desolat, the label loco dice, finally and after so much hard work they have completed their first album on beatwax records and have entitled it a young long trip.

kasket (aka charlie baldwin) returns to apollo with his second ep. warm regards, a collection of four songs left to simmer with traces of ambient, jazz, and dance rhythms, opens in dramatic fashion with a majestic title track of billowing synths and plaintively struck chords that serves as an ideal introduction to kaskets most realised work yet.

in 2011 when mad mats and tooli went to sonar festival in barcelona they met ludovic llorca aka art of tones outside a club. little did they know back then that two years later on they would release a 12 inch together. the same thing ep opens with the title track and kicks pretty damn sweet with its strong vocal, the guitar, bass and rhodes jamming on top of a tight groove, there is also a dub version included on the b-side. last but not least, the great sgatmi is a jazzy and bumpy house take with lots of samples perfectly balanced. all in all, classic art of tones material and the work of a producer firing on all cylinders.

following on your work as one of the twin pioneers of glaswegian radge-rock in arab strap cant be an easy task. aidan clearly has had other ideas, quite different ideas, and most of them comprise his solo project release via his alter ego, lucky pierre. in these recordings, l. pierre pays an affectionate tribute to the wear and tear of overplayed vinyl, the hiss, scratch and pop of records long loved but worn down. it is the sound of survival, the echoes of a life lived well, moth eaten music of dasness and resilience, of beauty and backbone.
pressing on 10 inch vinyl, download code included.

the star eyed condition is chameleonic effort in the impossible to pin down trajectory of loden s career. the belgian-based producer and musician has already proven his facility for glassy disco and droning ambient on his 2005 debut valeen hope, and glitchy hip-hop via his work with sole and thirsty fish.
on his new album, koks goes even further beyond his already drawn boundaries. there is a touch of robo-electro to tracks like *optimist never cries* and *sanesserarian* (a play on the phrase *ça ne sert a rien* or *it is useless*). he brings the ghostly sounds of german electronic pop into the dirtiest of hip-hop beats. and on his collaboration with rhymer doseone, *future confetti*, he gets lost in a psychedelic wilderness worthy of dj danger mouse.

it is the collaboration we have all been waiting for! the careers of both catz n dogz and eats everything have been intrinsically linked since the polish duo debuted the incredible mr edible via his agenda-setting *entrance song* on pets in 2011. their relationship was compounded by dirtybird dynamics, both acts sitting on the fringes of house and techno, neither side shy of the rich taste of bass, the work of both eats everything and catz n dogz has always sat side-by-side… but never together. until now.
two instantly distinctive, unmissable originals. one killer remix. they say it is a dog eat dog world. well not anymore… welcome to the crazy world of catz eats dogz.
