the creative combo doppelgaenger, pitchbar records latest offspring, are hitting the club scene with their vinyl debut >lumberjack<.
in the track >flavoured funk<, doppelgaenger live out their hard-edged, pushing, deep side. the slightly trancy elements are joined by a hard kick drum and somewhat deep vocals contributing to the tracks dark and driving atmosphere. this track represents a homage to the thick tree trunk that drives itself firmly into the earth, covered by a resilient bark and crowned by its old cracking branches.
the second track, >i feel good now<, mirrors the trees lush foliage. somewhat lighter around the treetop, there is nonetheless a solid body below, which can be played into wide space. >i feel good now< gives us the lightness to leap from branch to branch and up into the crown that protrudes into a dark night time sky.

continuing their quest to unearth deep house gems new and old, vibes & pepper introduce the world to manuel keyz with a killer four-track workout that makes all the classic moves. the strings and keys come in seductive, nocturnal arrangements, while the snippets of vocal come from true soul divas, all atop of bumping garage house funk. the tune that stands out to our ears is >orange love<, replete with sexy saxophone fit for lil louis and dreamy key flourishes that give a considered and wistful tone to the track, but really there is plenty to work with on all four corners of this ep.

having swiftly carved a niche for himself amongst the likes of perc, ben gibson returns to sect to deliver more of his brooding and engaging techno. there is a great emphasis on sound design and atmospherics in the two tracks on quien es?, as ominous clangs and tense tones hang heavy over rugged drum workouts. >ceased to gasp< is the more industrial of the two, but still allows for a melodic slant in the cavernous echoes that define the track. >remain< adopt a swirling, psychedelic approach to sonic decoration that draws you in just as it continues flooring you, like all good techno should. highly recommended.

new years deal - behind the highway, near the industrial area, next to the airport, somewhere in the innercity, urban principles fall apart. that leaves the enclaves, mono functionalism and an urban ultra density that local governments are struggling to eradicate. both a cage and a cocoon, there is a space where development opportunities hit the wall. hybrid places that combines urban collapse and >the new culture<, endemic violence and solidarity, all of which is left to the communities to deal with without outside help. when the post-industrial economy becomes sporadic and nothing else takes shape, man is left at the mercy of his environment. techno appears and becomes a parallel between man and the city, as another faceless entity which unifies them. this unity is the result and techno is the process.

andreas saag returns to local talk with a follow-up to his back to life ep, this time he has invited longtime friend and studio partner cazuma mori, together both of them offers the local talk fans house music with a distinctive production technique. >nostalgia< is a warm stomping basement beats floor-filler, with a fat bassline tempered by rising chord textures, smartly coordinated with the pulses in the track. both saag & cazuma showcases their skills in tackling slower bpms too. the b-side >cant hide it< comes with intricate keyboard work and deep atmosphere that is driven by an appealingly on-point house bassline. the track picks up a new elements at just the right moment to keep you on board the whole 8 minutes. there is no messin around here, just pure deep house from local talk.

as emotional rescue continues to deliver the goods for those who love discofied rarities from the 70s and 80s, here comes this ep from kevin harrison, originally released in 1982 and worth a pretty penny second hand. it is a wistful, proggy kind of groove that finds harrisons voice lost in an alien phaser while the live band feel gels with synthesiser parts for a fluid kind of cosmic goodness. there is simply no arguing with the plush melodic wonderment of >views of the rhine<, while >fly< is the jam the party djs will reach for, not least for its slinky bassline. amazing.

often overlooked in american techno history are the weird and wonderful flavours to have emanated from the mid-west over the years. no two finer exponents have there been than minnesotas paul birken and freddy fresh. their contributions date back to the early nineties when freddy was exploring the possibilities of extreme techno (via labels like labworks, experimental and his own analog) - an activity that paul took up a while later after debuting on woody mcbrides renegade communique label in 1996. teaming up for the first of two collaborations on this 12 inch, paul and freddy open with >the fate of thirty eight< - a belting slab of analogue techno, where machines shriek and squawk like possessed animals on the loose.

mowar enters autumn with the 2nd instalment of deep floors, once again exploring the deeper grooves of techno. first up is ohios fbk, whose first release already goes back to 1996 on the legendary frictional records. with she brought me there fbk opens the dance with a solid deep dancefloor groover, driven by a hypnotic hook and infectious chords. stripped down and yet full of atmosphere. after that uks tom dicicco and italys roberto bosco team up to deliver all dem, another stripped affair with rolling drums and chord stabs, a solid blend of deep hypnotic layers of groove. on the flipside we find spains aiken with a strong detroit-infused workout, in-your-face kick drums, jacking rhythms and dramatic strings. your turntables will love it. last but not least, a new belgian upcoming producer stevie p delivers a dubbed out functional deep techno track with hip-sensitive chord stabs and a fiercely throbbing rhythm.

orbsessions volume three - an illustrated handbook with stereo sound.

>there is a very special atmosphere to this album: two men bouncing ideas and exploring in unique orb style to make a classic orb album, hitting the magic place alex always strives for, but this time with a lustful vengeance tempered with new gentleness and a movie in their heads.<

the inspiration for this ep came from a trip the two producers took to zug island- a polluted toxic metal factory isle on the detroit river between detroit and windsor, canada. the sounds within this record are intended to sonically personify the environment of zug island and the harmful impact it currently has on the river, wild life,and humans residing there!

its not so easy to pigeonhole de:pots musical style: deep, groovy, smoky and pending somewhere between akufen, krause duo and cypress hill. with his vinyl-debut for sophisticated helmsmen, the analog-studio-punk from the provincial backcountry of eastern germany now delivers a proper dope-house masterpiece, fairly dragging the anxious legs of any foggy dancefloor. bigbait012 – thats five tracks, five statements, five unmistakably groovy and well-hung slices of contemporary house-music, giving the listener the opportunity to get a hint of what crazy and freaked-out experiments de:pot has figured out in his mind – highly contaminated dancefloor drugs for shuffle addicts

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?

well known for his minimalistic choice of ingredients christoper rau somehow frees himself of any straight format. songs full of sweetness, a glimpse of soul here, a detroit electro influence there, broken beats, breaks that are no breaks, sexyness and funk and fun.

terrence dixon is the man behind sporadic production alias population one, serving up dark and heavy, intense and ravey records for classic labels like utensil only occasionally. as such, delsins re-issue arm (following on from dan curtin, mk and luke slater titles) has sought to get some of the old tracks out there once again on this double a side 10inch outing with midnight hours (first on detroit: beyond the third wave lp from 1996) and two sides to every story (from an ep of the same name on metroplex, also in 1996).

the new bomb on echocord colour comes from nick höppner and scott monteith aka deadbeat. this is the first ep by nick höppner on echocord colour. nick is maybe most known as being the manager of one of berlins most infamous record labels, ostgut-ton, höppner may not always receive the same lavish praise as ostgut artists like ben klock, shed and marcel dettmann, but there is an argument to be had that he is the best of the bunch. höppner only releases sporadically, but whether it is solo or alongside lee jones as mymy, his records are always remarkable. the 2 tracks for this release are both peaktime tracks. deadbeat did the remix.

after bringing together the extended family for retrospective s first showcase compilation, label co-founders and curators ruben & ra follow up with a 4-tracker from the revered glaswegian disco duo, slow it down and the london-based house veteran elijah collins. alright, inspired by nv s classic from 83, marks a collaboration between slow it down & elijah collins. following on from the trio s reworking, there s a ruben & ra remix that layers nv s vocal sample over original analogue riffs and a weightier bassline. having recently featured on the yam who?s midnight riot vol.2 compilation, i dont need pumps cherelles affair forward by 3 decades, before the janet jackson-sampling tramadol boogie completes the flipside in fine style. finally, a big thanks to yam who? for sanctioning the inclusion of i dont need ...

according to legend, although the velvet undergrounds debut lp only sold about 100 copies when it was originally released, every one who did buy a copy were inspired enough to form their own band.

collaboration is at the heart of the brothers concept. 4 artists, 2 tracks, 1 vinyl. brothers music sits under the expansive banner of techno. from ambient / leftfield, dancefloor to industrial / experimental and everything else in between. we want to push artists we love to there limits. getting them to move outside their comfort zones and venture into new territories. swap ideas, techniques and sounds, as long as it feels fresh and unique to the artist, their partner and us that is all we ask.

sixth instalment from the shack and another generous exult in aural pleasing for the intelligent of house heads out there. two original tracks, two in-house remixes, you know the score with these guys…this is how they work. key to the label and artists success is being reliable and consistent with the flow, something obviously being picked up as the label once again is topping the right charts and getting the props from the right people. expect no different with 006.

the english born mark reeve is an old-school techno producer. there is no schmaltz, no loop fiddling and no cheap sensationalism in his tracks, which are aiming at the big techno floors. dark, kicking and with an incredible amount of energy, he creates techno tracks that allow no escape.

following on from a pair of extended players released in 2011 (passed me by / we stay together), andy stott returns to modern love with luxury problems, an 8 track album of new material recorded over the last 12 months. five of the tracks on the album feature the voice of alison skidmore, andys onetime piano teacher whom he hadnt seen since he was a teenager back in 1996. there was no grand gesture in mind, it just sort of happened – but after almost a year of studio work the result is really quite unlike anything you will have heard from him before.

the fourth release from audiofugitives recordings (au004) comes from jonathan torrico and his schizolectric project! with this ep called >encephalogram< it seems that schizolectric explores the electrical activity of the brain through the sounds in six tracks that will transport you to an obscure hypnotic tunnel with atmospheric, subterranean and pure electronic soundscapes. superb release, check it out for yourself. limited copies!

we wish there were more moments like the ones that madis ones new 12 inch, in the image (blnk-27), brought to mind. >the hotness< is just that, a mechanical, bass driven, hip-hop cut while >the abyss< recalls the days when the amen break and substance reigned over celebrity status. available on 12 inch vinyl, cut at 45 rpm. we recommend trying these out at 33 rpm as well!

the black madonna hits home taping hard with her first release on the label >alright this morning<. coming from the middle of nowhere, but now based in the attic of a house in chicago that used to be the home of over 50 dance labels, she likes her music to do the talking and admires the anonymity and musical militancy of acts like underground resistance. having being brought up working in the music industry as an apprentice doing this, that and everything and helping to run labels, she actually refused to let anyone hear her work for years with masters gathering dust and never seeing the light of day. until now when, after the encouragement of a producer friend to get her stuff out there and a chance find by home taping of a few tracks online one day, she has now found a place where she feels at home. the first of a string of releases on home taping sees the jubilant and heavily chicago-influenced >alright this morning< released along with a remix by one of her favourite new producers, nicholas from italy. the rest is history and up to you ...

morgan zarates second release for hyperdub is a bold and unexpected move for him. he has been known in the past as the producer for leftfield soul group spacek and also currently as one half of the shining, signed to xl records, but with >broken heart collector< he has made some highly contagious dubstep pop, featuring rising singer / songwriter / producer stevie neale on vocals. stevie warns of a guy who is the titular >broken heart collector<. her rnb vocals contrast with a fierce storm of drums and vertiginous synths that attack like waves against rocks. it is a brilliant pop song, with a chorus earworm you might find hard to resist. there is also an instrumental included as well. the third track is >crey bey<, an energetic, grimy 8 bar instrumental. it shifts between dive-bombing synths and a spooked, nervous melody over a rich organ track, with martial kicks and snares guaranteed to get you bouncing.
