mitte november 2016 wird bei ninja tune romares lang-erwartetes zweites album love songs: part two erscheinen. love songs: part two entwickelt und erweitert die lŠssige brillanz seines debŸtalbums projections. es war die art von gefeiertem album, die einen weniger talentierten kŸnstlers ins straucheln gebracht hŠtte. vom dj mag zum album des jahres gewŠhlt, erhielt es begeisterte kritiken auf der ganzen linie. es wurde von grš§en wie bonobo, four tet und annie mac unterstŸtzt und etablierte fairhurst als produzenten, den man gesehen haben muss. es scheint, als nehme er diesen druck recht gelassen hin. love songs: part two zeigt eine erweiterung, entwicklung und vertiefung seiner techniken. obwohl sampling von vinyl noch immer eine wichtige rolle fŸr ihn spielt, hat fairhurst weitaus mehr musik auf dieser platte selbst eingespielt: von monophonen synthesizern Ÿber den rekorder seiner gro§mutter und die mandoline seines vaters, bis zum e-bass sowie einer vielzahl von gitarren und keyboards, die ebenfalls zentrale rollen einnehmen.

ursprŸnglich aus experimenten mit dreidimensionalen aufnahmetechniken entstanden, und als zwei einzelne, jedoch miteinander verbundene teile konstruiert, ist the ship gleicherma§en eine musikalische neuheit, wie ein traditionelles album. eno bringt auf diesem album wunderschšne songs mit minimalistischer atmosphŠre, physischer elektronik mit einer allwissenden erzŠhlung und technischer innovation zu einer einzigen, cineastischen suite zusammen. das resultat ist das beste musikalische werk von eno, ein album ohne vergleich in seinem bisherigen musikalischen katalog.

asagaya ist ein kŸnstler aus irgendeiner ecke dieser welt. sein partner in crime ist die franzšsische produzenten-legende guts (heavenly sweetness), der light of the dawn- produziert hat und aus dessen dunstkreis auch die featuregŠste mit lorine chia und leron thomas stammen. als multiinstrumentalist mit einer synthetischen, programmierten stimme ist asagaya und seine soundŠstehtik im hip hop verwurzelt, jedoch klingt sie zugleich wie in einer anderen sphŠre, alternativ und transversaler.

in stylistic regards their compositions are never predictable. a touch of organic jazz here, a subtle hip-hop allusion there, accompanied by a moving club rhythm structure and delhias captivating voice, which sings, then talks, and whispers in the next moment. this is being reflected in their life shows, acknowledged with much applause on festivals like ?sonne, mond und sterne?, the ?fusion festival? or ?ars electronica?. when they sample themselves during their concerts, modify their sound in real time and vividly interpret their songs, delhia dances audaciously in extravagant, selfdesigned costumes in haughty reserve and effuses eccentric pop magic. twisted-pop which gets straight under your skin, without ever grooving streamlined. you can dance to it, lose yourself in it or step into new worlds. there is only one thing difficult to deal with after you enjoyed ?the devil?s hand? and that?s to release yourself from its overwhelming emotional impact.

2 x cd in gatefold sleeve for those who want to know the background, it is something like this. i bought an italian drawbar organ module around two years ago. apparently italian organs from that period had a bad reputation but i was so happy with it that it appeared on most of the tracks i had been working on. i thought i had an album together and was supposed to get it mastered on the day after the mastering session for the pinch and shackleton release on honest jons (sometime towards the end of summer 2011)

the late steve reid, veteran jazz drummer and percussionist, and kieran hebden (four tet), the british electronic musician/producer young enough to be his grandson, present the fifth and final installment of their momentous synergy. the music on this double cd was recorded in concert on 20 june 2009 in the foyer of the queen elizabeth hall at london s southbank centre, as part of the meltdown festival curated by free jazz legend ornette coleman. for this marathon workout, reid and hebden were joined by swedish power saxophonist mats gustafsson, whose fiery blowing style had inspired kieran to seek out a drummer like steve to work with in the first place. live at the south bank stands as a memorial to a thrilling and productive partnership sadly cut off in its prime.

this is the first part (of four) of the much anticipated reissue series of drexciya s early catalogue, marking 20 years since the release of their first ep deep sea dweller , and 10 years since their final album grava 4 . one of the most influential techno acts ever, and part of the heritage of detroits underground resistance, drexciya explored techno like no-one else before: raw and uncompromising music that reflected the harsh environment of the city where drexciya was conceived, with a mythical approach that only added to their cult appeal. drexciya arguably stands for the darker side of techno and electro, made not only for the club scene, but a further development of the music as an expression and extension of the mind. journey of the deep sea dweller is a near-complete collection of their early works, released in four parts, with all audio remastered from the original master tapes. since the original releases have such a strong character and stand on their own, these reissue can never recreate the magic of those originals. instead, clone have stirred up the catalogue, taking tracks out of their original context, giving the committed fan a fresh experience and the new listener a document that is the best possible introduction to the aquatic world of drexciya.

a brand new compilation featuring the a- and b-sides of all the bands chiswick singles. includes four tracks new to cd. when we recently came to re-press our long-standing the best of the damned, the pressing plant told us that, unfortunately, the films had been lost. rather than simply make a new set of films, we decided to make a completely new cd and so present you with the damned: the chiswick singles - and another thing... overseen by the producer of the bands chiswick releases, roger armstrong, the package comes with brand new high-end transfers from the original master tapes - the damned have never sounded better. an extensive trawl through box after box of saved material from that era means that the booklet features a lavishly illustrated package including rare photographs and tons of memorabilia.

ex-harry pussy guitarist bill orcutt s 2009 side a new way to pay old debts was an instant classic for those attuned to his brand of stomach-scrapingly raw, hoary blues improvisation. few could have expected the album to be subsequently issued on cd by editions mego, but the more you thought about it the more it made sense - though all-acoustic, orcutt s music is every bit as extreme, violent and threshold-testing as that of, say, florian hecker, russell haswell or mika vainio. as if to prove it wasn t a token gesture towards eclecticism, mego boss peter rehberg has signed a brand new album from orcutt, and what an album it is. for the most part it s in that visceral, coruscating style that he s best known for, all finger-bleeding fretboard assaults that manage to sound at once virtuoso and completely out-of-control, reaching a psychotic climax on the visible bosom: but there are some more reflective passages too, hell, the title track might even be the most chilled thing he s ever recorded. the album was cut at d+m in berlin, which really teases every last drop of blood, sweat and tears out of the recording, which took place at orcutt s home studio in san francisco in spring of 2011. brutal, bludgeoning but incurably romantic, how the thing sings demands your steadfast attention. mind-blowing.

2011 collection featuring cuts from shuggie otis, sly & the family stone and aretha franklin.. the old grey whistle test has now been synonymous with quality music for 40 years. although possibly best know as a show for rock music, the show maintained an amazing variety when it came to choosing its artists, it really only had two criteria, 1, that the artists had released an album and 2 that they produced great music. this collection mostly features artists that appeared on the show but also include artists who for whatever reason didnt or couldnt appear on the show.

musikalisch ist drums between the bells die abwechslungsreichste arbeit enos seit jahren. perkussive tracks, basierend auf industrial/noise, rock oder ethno-elementen wechseln sich ab mit elektronischen oder klassischen listening-passagen von erhabener schšnheit. doch das album ist mehr. sŠmtliche tracks sind mit gedichten des lyrikers rick holland versehen, vorgetragen von eno persšnlich oder personen seines umfeldes (fitnessstudio, ladenangestellte, buchhalter, grafikdesigner, ...). jeder trŠgt seinen part inviduell unterschiedlich vor: narrativ, per vocoder verfremdet, als mantra, mit echo verhallen, stakkato, hypnagogisch, als gebet, abstrakt. eno nennt sie speech-songs. seine arbeit ist eine innovative kombination aus musik & text, eine neuartige form von sprechgesang und sicherlich sein interessantestes werk seit langem!

each summer, a new raft of dance compilations stake claim to represent the real ibiza. but, if anyone deserves that that accolade, it is josŽ padilla, who first arrived on the white island in 1975 and who has been djling there ever since. for jose it has been always great to experience different music and play around the colours. as jose days if it was grey, id play one way, if it was very bright, id play happy. id play with the mood. those sunsets have become legendary Ð an essential part of the ibiza experience, climaxing in warm applause as the sun finally disappears beneath the waves, and those famous mix tapes evolved into the much-loved cafŽ del mar compilation albums, conceived and compiled by josŽ padilla, which have now sold over 5 million copies around the world.

this release is a reissue of two of german producer udo heitfields albums for tresor, from 2000 and 2002 respectively. the passage of time has done little to tarnish the productions and of the two albums, the three untitled tracks from the ways of the bodies have some bearing with dub techno,unfolding in a dreamy, jazzed out manner over the course of 20-30 minutes each. timeless meanwhile is a more ambient work, but heitfield manages to keep the listeners attention with the hour-long all and you, two dreamy, abstract works. that they sound all the more relevant given technos shift towards off-beat sounds is testament to heitfields timeless sound.

this winter, rjd2 returns with the highly anticipated 4th solo lp >the colossus<. making the 10th year of his career, the album showcases the myriad of styles rjd2 has spanned as a maverick,respected producer for himself, and others. collaborating with mcÕs, vocalists, and various instrumentalists, it displays an urgency and sophistication rarely seen. weaving together his trademark rock solid drums, soulful vibes and horns, samples and anything else available, the album is a kaleidoscopic look both forward and back. part impressions, part daft punk, part thin lizzy. he is helped along by vocalists kenna (star trak), phonte coleman (little brother), aaron livingston (the roots >guns are drawn<), as well as several underground mcs and horns, woodwind, and strings. a sound to behold.
