after a storming end to 2012 with the slow it down & elijah collins release in november swiftly followed by elias tzikas in december, retrospective is back with a monster of a release. we are proud to kick off 2013 with none other than italys finest, ajello! eclecticism is definately the keyword word of the ajello project comprising of luca (dj rocca) roccatagliati and fabrizio taver tavernelli. the ajello sound features a number of influences all of which can be heard in the tracks on this, their first e.p. on retrospective, electro, new-wave, italo-disco, disco, neurofunk, eurodance, space sounds, early house.

the eenundoertig comes with two stompin floor smasher by none other than josh

tropics a.k.a. chris ward first appeared on planet mu last year, following up two eps with the album parodia flare. commended by pitchfork for his lush soundscapes and hazy pop, whats clear with tropics is that he listens to a lot of dance music and he cares about production values. the synth and beat programming is as competent as anything out there, and he avoids lazy indie stylings and one button bontempi organ beats � his are crafted songs, much of the pleasure lying in his gift for dynamic arrangement, which is a joy amid rafts of useful formulaically assembled house tracks.
in common with the general post-financial collapse vibe there is less sunshine in this ep than before, and he has absorbed something from a year of intensive house music listening, but chris essential qualities remain a forward-looking wistfulness, hope beneath melancholy, something even more acutely needed now than before. oh look! here comes winter.

since tobi kramer rocked the format b remix contest he has been basking in the brilliance of his remix for socks and sandals. it is no surprise that the two label bosses wont let go of this young man from lower saxony, though one searching for reasons need look no further than his formatik debut ep eye patch.

with a title such as passage17, we can rest assured that reeko wants to take us somewhere, into the depths of something. he wants us to know this long road is rife with a variety of sensations, but more than anything this new release is a journey into something more important that is yet to come. if we want to get there, we must first travel this road.

some people do music as a hobby, some people take it as a job, and some people just live for it. eduardo de la calle has been producing and releasing techno music around spain and europe for more than 16 years. a real veteran in the techno music scene, he has lived and worked in numerous cities developing his own projects throughout the years: lots of hours behind decks and in production studios. eduardo has an enormous potential, his love and passion for music, his production and his dj sets, deep and full of intensity have earned him a lot of respect.

the roots of soul music are alive and well in these stirring recordings of a capella gospel by these three extraordinary voices from como, mississippi.

steve bug returns with a brilliant set of killer reworks from his much-lauded noir album. no adjustments features the vocal talents of foremost poets, and remains one of the standout moments on the label boss enigmatic long player. where noir explored the themes of light and shade, it was always clear that no adjustments was one of the more straight up dance floor moments on there, and as such this release is definitely going to be thankfully received by djs.

easily recognizable by his impassioned johnny cash-meets-charlie feathers vocals, the french-born don cavalli began to get any notice in the greater music and blog community when he released his full-length *cryland* (2007), which featured his amalgamation of swamp blues, lo-fi pop, country gospel, and early rock & roll. in 2013, don cavalli will release his new studio album *temperamental*, staying on blues track while dismantling the traditional codes of the field. indeed, thanks to an old fashioned sound take and a contemporary production, don cavalli makes his new album sound old but incredibly modern. and if *temperamental* goes through many kinds of sounds, in the end it always goes straight to the point: a unique cajun blues from the bayou serving a soul and sophisticated voice. a must-have!
cd-copy of the full album included.

nice price deal !!! every once in a while a particular record will land in our laps which we have very little information on but usually somebody will unearth its origins after a bit of homework and more often than not it turns out to be a relatively well-known producer operating under a new and secret pseudonym. what we are looking at here however, seems to be quite the enigma. one can only speculate as to who watkins & almadovar might be.

- limited repress edition !! bringing back the deep, soulful sounds of the underground.
deep house music is more than just another genre. it is a feeling, an emotion, a passion. compares the feelings it conveys to that of gospel saying, its spiritual

the meant label returns with a brand new ep from monoblok & pslktr featuring remixes from the hacker & la dame noir. more quality from the meant label, nothing less than you would expect, enjoy!

the founders of lets play house records�new yorkers jacques renault and nik mercer�have started a new imprint in an effort to continue pushing the envelope and expanding their stylistic reach. g.m. is a vinyl-only label that will exist for eight installments, each one signifying a different phase of the moon. the releases will vary in tone and aesthetic, but, suffice it to say, each will be harder and heavier than what lph proper puts forth. the series commences with four bombastic, techno-leaning barn-burners by a man who goes simply by almost. g.m. guarantees that they will tear up any club floor.

eclectic avenue welcomes the inimitable lil mark, one of the true stalwarts of the uk house scene & regular contributor to some of the finest imprints worldwide. here mark expertly shows his unique knack for genre-straddling. kicking off with pulling strings more familiar lil mark territory, with his trademark tight-as-hell percussion & firing bass sat below a freaked-out twisting riff. seriously, this bad-boy takes no prisoners....other than the ones on the dancefloor.... on the flipside we are treated to memoirs, a beautifully sumptous lo-slung roller, utilising a vox refrain over the top of a glorious rolling bass groove. like being comforted by a welcoming acid-bass-hug, this is truly something special. nestled inbetween marks original cuts is e.a.r. main-man j.cub, who offers up an alternate interpretation of memoirsl. taking the vox refrain & weaving it throughout the track like an instrument, j.cub nudges the tempo up slightly & adds a solid percussive backdrop & a reworked bass groove, creating a cut which is deep enough to warm the crowd but packs a solid punch at the same time

limited copies pressed on transparent green 12 inch vinyl housed in a hand-stamped inner sleeve.
the return of goldffinch on saigon recordings with remixes of two tracks from their 2 part ep series from last year. first up is a rework of *funky steppa* arguably the belgian duos biggest tune to date on a club level with huge dj support from the likes of boddika, jackmaster, oneman and more � stepping up on the remix duties is none other than resident swamp 81 producer trusta with a psychedelic monster of a relick. on the flip policy fresh from his superb album on rush house attacks *outer twigs* to sublime effect, taking the original framework and truly making the track his own, it is a journey you wont want to come back from.

the headless horseman is coming after you with a freshly sharpened sword. he will take no prisoners. his true identity has never been revealed but his presence is felt through music. listen if you dare, but be aware that he will ride again, sooner than you know it.

as the famous dutch expression goes: the monkey is ready to come out of the sleeve again! lany recordings apetunes vol 1 is still lingering with us thanks to larses killer the more i want track, but we here at lany hq have already planned the follow-up!

limited pressing of 300!! mysterious bufiman and the glorious tim schumacher on the label that fully dedicate itself to the underground house sound. bufiman delivers two magical tracks that blend analogue disco, fantastic house and heavy tribal voodoo rhythms to create something very special in electronic dancemusic - we call it obscure discohouse, he calls it monkey b-boy-style. tim schumacher is representing on this record his very own interpretation of chicago-house and brings us three driving tracks that are rooting deeply in the love for analogue sound production of the late 80ies, no matter if its house, disco or synth-pop, but always with a very personal approach to what house-music is all about: emotions. on the last track no less than dj jakob from terpsiton/vfmm is jamming together with tim and two other friends in a dadaistic session

rummage in some boxes of my favourite record store i found a cover that made me curious. l kubic & tagträumer² - the only thing in this world and on the flipside a remix by alle farben. when placing the needle at the beginning of the vinyl the first sounds were very strange. i thought that must be a record from the 60s lost in the tech-house box but than a straight beat turned everything different. a piano melody slowly sat down firmly in my ear and i was longing to know where the journey takes me. after a while an acidline pushed everything and i was sure at this time this is not a normal 4/4 tech-house record. alle farben remixed the themes very playful and i heard that he gives the elements more pressure for the club. so at the end i bought this one and i cannot imagine taking this unique record ever again out of my record case.

kalimero is back again. their seventh catalogue number is standing in the wings awaiting you as a three track ep, one original & two remixes. melchior bachmann delivers his second release on kalimero together with his producing mate extd. will, a new berlin-based talent and long-term companion of the labels artists. they created *play*, a deep tech-house revelation that is simply catching everything what each of us is referring as to groovy and pressing it into eight minutes of pure emotional dancefloor energy. this is also caused by dennis degenharts great singing work. the remixes are contributed by mario aureo and luis leon. marios remix is keeping the tech-house grooves and keys and transforms them into a marching and pumping peaktime tune. side b is completely left to luis leon, a very talented producer and dj from peru, who did nothing less than turning *play* into an deep house anthem - a journey that has all the time to evolve itself.

the excellent beats in space label continues to impress with each release. following up lauers monster mascat ring down release, eddie rushchas celebrated secret circuit project steps up once again, bringing us *afterlife*. a typically freeform analogue synth workout with fx drenched vocals and that unmistakeable secret circuit vibe who better to handle the remix than the ukraines very own analogue ambassador, vakula. his treatment is a textbook vakula production, warm, expertly evolving, raw machine funk. wrapping things up we have a dub version, in the truest sense of the word, an utterly spaced out and remade rub down. typically superb artwork and shrinkwrapped sleeve packaging as you have come to expect.

anton kubikov, for more than a decade well known as half of scsi-9, delivers with his solo debut a killer twelve inch for pro-tez records. limited to 300 copies, it is a reduced 4/4 dub vapored ep that unfolds into a blissed out session and sounds like a cross between chain reaction s fluxion and rhythm and sounds more bass-heavy emissions. dub techno heads listen up!

here is another seminal chicago disco record straight from the vault of past due records - jerome derradji still musics beloved disco division. the story behind this 70s disco hit from lonnie givens and pick of the litter is more than impressive. originally released on 7 by mason records around 77/78, runnin to a disco quickly became one of the first chicago disco classic.

>love has made me stronger< ist eine fantastische neuendeckung eines albums aus dem jahr 1976! die sängerin und harfenistin carol kleyn spielte in den 70er jahren mit größen wie john lennon, robert plant, phil spector graham nash, anne murray oder gregg allman. ihr album ist eine tolle evokation von west coast folk-rock sounds der 70er jahre, carols stimme erinnert an joni mitchell und essra mohawk.

handstemped artwork. for a&s003 dimi angelis & jeroen search meets noone else than s100.

knox is the band brainchild of brother-sister duo nic and eliza coolidge. hailing from boston and new york, the siblings released their second ep, here, on december 3rd, and it is a big step forward for the band. formed less than two years ago, in march 2011, knox finds themselves working with the likes of john tejada and kuxxan suum on this release, and the outcome is stunning. here is five-song set full of ice and echoes. it runs as close to the third rail of impersonation, but flies away so quickly that knox sounds contextual and perfectly fresh. the influences from james blake is clear: the swooping, bomber bass and half-timey compressed dub beats, here could also easily be an inventive b-side to the latest how to dress well album. but, with the limited scale, interspersed remixes and foundling status in the scene, i would say it is likely a more impressive feat. the ep as a whole is desolate. expansive spaces filled with cold little beats and vocal washes, exploring in the course of five songs an icescape aesthetic with a sense of place usually reserved for full-length albums. the remixes blend so seamlessly that i didnt even realize they were during my first, casual listen.

if we listen to the higher self, our experience of life is joyful and abundant. when you see yourself connected to something bigger than yourself, you no longer feel must do it all alone.

only a handful copies & vinyl only. debut of colognes best kept secret. more than 26 minutes of playtime for your afterhour pleasures. every item with unique handmade street design be quick!

since its inception in 2001, each entry in the pop ambient series has included its year of conception in its title, an irony in the fact that many consider the music being timeless in more than one way: a feel-good classic to some, a rigorous experiment to others, pop ambient always has located itself between the poles of habitual listening and sonic curiosity, with the space in-between beats being a way more interesting material than the beat itself. as in the years before, pop ambient 2013 collects an illustrious cast of producers uniting genre pioneers alongside old friends and some surprising new arrivals.
the 12 inch vinyl comes with a cd-copy of the full album.

imagine snake plissken in the year 2012. each track of this record can be the perfect soundtrack for a movie with a more shady than stainless hero, fighting for

after 21 releases and covering most areas of house its time to introduce anaxander and present a new sound to the ever growing local talk catalogue. the a side antionette is a perfect electronic influenced body-locking flavored track, an organ alongside a bouncing bass and a rhythmic feel is sometimes all you need to get moving ! its the b-side that really take things to the next level. anaxander both puts his own clever stamp on these two tracks and delivers acid in the old, vintage sense that owes more to the raw and unpolished club tracks played by ron hardy at music box than to the old school house vibes you have expected from local talk. both cat feeding and i want you now are two tracks of a new era of local talk. innovating, futuristic and original produced electronic analogue funk for 2012

100%cotton great shirt for vinyl lovers...than you very much rue de plaisance for the music on vinyl

call it whatever you want. we think of it simply as techno music. deep, raw, mystical and industrialesque music that makes you think about your desires and gives you the illusion of clearing away time and space. having lived in almost all corners of the world, it took nothing more than finding themselves in berlin, a dose of random chance and a barside conversation for irakli and yacoub to figure out they had similar views about music - and so, i/y was born. i/y 001 is a three track intense journey into the depths of techno.

techno music that is more rock n roll than any guitar nowadays could be

basswalkers! calling all basswalkers to the isolated system. it is time, time for round two. hope you like yours nice n ravey because aÑas & 785s taking us way way back with this one. please keep your arms and legs inside the time capsule. and strap in, its gonna be a 90s sorta ride. you may remember our last session with henning baer, norman nodge and musk? it turned into a bit of a showdown, with all sorts of basswalks proliferating the floor. well, now its aÑas & 785s turn to take the lead. some of you are new here, so were easing you in gently with break even first. dont be scared, this is a harmless sort of menace�its bark is far worse than its bite. besides, wait til you hear the breakdown. wooh. now youre all warmed up, let it all go with let it go. really, no holds barred please. trust, you will enjoy it all the more. you can collect your things at the end.

domenico writes and co-writes all the songs, sings, plays guitar and designs the rhythmically adventurous soundscapes heard on cine prive. with the help of old (pedro sa, alberto continentino, moreno veloso, kassin, and adriana calcanhotto) and newer (money mark, darin gray & glenn kotche of duo on fillmore) friends and musical collaborators the songs were recorded live in the studio with most tracks calling on no more than three musicians at a time.

what better way to welcome the new year than with a bang? thats precisely why we once again got the extraordinary edu imbernon on board to follow up on last years outstanding >mystery inside<

ltd 2013 repress
with > trust< audio werner discovers the taiko drum for your rolling pleasure. if you ever thought that the usage of this tribal-esque element couldnt lead to any satisfying results, were here to convince you of the opposite. its nothing less than ethno bretting at its best! on the flip we re getting crisp n crazy with >shiers<. bewitching the crowd with sounds around the bottle, audio knirps and zwunkts strange frequencies and weird grooves out of your speakers

last copies left !!
first 500 copies with a2 poster packaged in a gatefold cover!!!! the thunder from thuringia, genosse from gera, mr. minimal samba, the man that goes by many names is here to present to us his very first lp on none other than his solo action vakant home. about 2 years in the making, studio 10 takes mathias kadens life-long work as dj and producer, world wide tours, twenty something years of listening and thinking, machines and people, wraps a bow around it all, and delivers it with roses dipped in chocolate. always taking his time with production, mathias focus on quality over quality continues to pay dividends no matter the state of the economy. unique in many ways, studio 10 was also unique for the producer himself. never before has mathias incorporated into his music so much hardware, field recordings, messages, and invited friends and orchestral musicians to collaborate

following their past releases, pure* records delivers another golden & soulful one - smell the sunshine, the beach, the summer. built upon flowing percussion and filled with an addictive baseline - a melodic and groovy tech-house hymn with great remixes by no one else than mollono.bass, beatamines

vinyl only! rora did it again and presents an outstanding masterpiece of music! more than 65 min playtime. no need for more words. be fast to get one of this classic and timeless piece of art.

next round for chymeras >death by misadventure< interpretations. this time, both remixes were made for >an island in space<, definitely one of the highlight tracks of the album. on side a, uncanny valleys jacob korn, who just released his debut longplayer >you&me<, turns the tune into an intoxicating hymn somewhere between house and techno. catchy, and with a wonderfully positive atmosphere, the track is pure bliss. on the b, dutch techno veteran orlando voorn delivers a piece of properly driving melodic techno. several melodies entangle to one big sound collage. there is no real beginning or end, like a neverending jam. a very unique track and so much more than a useful tool...

detroits monty luke brought full flavor music the highly anticipated >bomb on bomb< ep which dropped in the summer of 2012. other than being carl craigs right hand man at planet e communications, monty luke has been letting loose chart topping eps one right after another all year long. planet e, kms, mothership, get physical, and montys own black catalogue are amongst the labels he has been busy releasing with. full flavor music is happy to be getting out the highly anticipated remixes to >bomb on bomb< by h foundation and gerd.

standout track taken from don ninos latest album >in the backyard of your mind< (released in may), >beats< is about to take over your turntable for good thanks to three new remixes at the crossroads of the indie-pop and electronic music genres.
the original version of >beats< is a freaky and well-balanced piece of folk music. its lyrics are about body transportation and spiritual dematerialization. but in the hands of chloe, turzi and cubenx the beat boxes substitute the drums, the vocals get distorted, the track deconstructs itself as well as the walls fall between the genres.

we are proud to introduce our first artist ep >easydance< from no other than m.ono. he returns in full strength for his first solo record by setting up all the favorite ingredients we all love in his tracks. always groovy, always fresh and always highly-danceable.

these redux releases are like buses, we dont hear anything for ages then they hit us with three killer eps in a row. following the grand corporation and machete savane comes the return of phoreski. we have not heard much from phoreski for a little while, but you will soon hear why when you put the needle to the record on these two new tracks. he has been busily building up his studio into an enviable aladdins den of vintage kit, wires and analogue recording equipment. all synths and vocals you hear on these tracks come from phoreski, no samples, no guests, no edits. he has been hinting at this raw, analogue authentic sound for a while, but these tracks showcase a producer at one with the machines. >brown biscuits< comes across like some lost italo/cosmic gem, but via the north east of england rather than the lakes of italy. >machines< flexes tight proto-house rhythms with some bass that will make mince meat of lesser club soundsystems whilst the feuding synth lines fight for attention. this is proper body music, play loud!

2014 repress! vinyl only! prad bitt is adi dumitra and toygun new alias, where they decided to explore the dub techno side. after remixing for the legendary taho (ovum, delsin ), now they release this splendid ep, pure dub & techno at its best. remix duties are covered by none other than brendon moeller and salz. a must have for all the dub lovers!

fear of flying unleash their first ever lp with dutchman ivano tetelepta undertaking the honours. the 8 tracks on the vinyl are a step away from the traditional straight up 4/4 route that fof usually tread, feeling that for an lp to make a splash in the modern era it has to be more about the flow of tracks as a whole, rather than just a double pack of straight up house beats. there has to be a splash more emotion and feeling with the emphasis on mood. yet that isnt to say there arent club worthy tracks, far from it. the glorious twisted 120 and deep tech funk 119 are custom made for the dancefloor and are exclusive to the vinyl release

patrick gallenmüller and maysam salehi alias pele & shawnecy the hard working guys from the south of germany,coming up with their second part of >kings of the garden part ii< . first track >savago< impresses with his groove and easiness and has already massive support from many headliners. second track >focus< is definitely putting the focus on the night,great tuff vocals from shawnecy himself. on the flip comes >passion< first really starting smooth than exploding in the middle of the track with a mighty bassline. last track on the vinyl edition one more flawless laxly track named >out of mind< perfect killer for every house set with additional vocals from shawnecy and the message >get back, relax and let your mind be free...<
