true soul brings together two london based producers in ues and alex magno. having released and remixed as individuals, the destination house ep brings the two friends together with a double-header of choice house cuts. you can feel the warmth flooding from barbados.elegantly deep, its simple bassline throbs like a musical heartbeat as the rasping hi-hat pierce the ever-present blanket of the single note synth. destination house comes outta the oldschool. warm bass, crisp percussion and smooth key stabs are matched with a persuasive vocal sample and some downtown traffic to create a fresh cut that tips its hat to the past. stepping up on the remix is young dutch talent tom ruijg, who sets about polishing his own version of destination house in some style. adding a little more muscle and holding the keys till the final third, tom rounds out the ep in style.

the next release coming out of the roska camp is this smart vinyl-only followup to the roska allstars release. this second instalment brings more of the same versatile movements from some fantastic producers currently leading the way for upfront danceable material. main man roska signs up terror danjah to pull of a smart remix of his track >without it<. its somewhat of a guilty pleasure hearing both artists signature idents in one song, terror with his evil gremlin laugh and roska with his ubiquitous shout out! however its all about the arrangement here as terror reforms those original trumpet sounds and adds some heavy distorted bass. j:kenzo serves up >let it move< which is all out pure electro style with punchy drums and dirty synths, again lending to the surprising nature of this labels output. tickles completes the vinyl only package with >da growler<. drums are tougher than iron and bass harder than rock as tickles blends funky, dubstep and house into his own dance-floor destructive mould. all three records show a different side to the current uk bass and funky scene, yet they somehow could only belong on kicks & snares. a fine package for a burgeoning label.

to round off 2011 fear of flying enlist the talents of shenoda, a name that may be familiar to a few of you who follow the uk based >hypercolour< label. the >mines of minolta ep< kicks off with >phone call< - harnessing the essence of steve o sullivans bluetrain project the track runs deep with a dubbed out bassline and moody stylings a plenty. the flip sides two tracks inject a lighter, uplifting feel with >night eater< shuffling along on a blissed out pad and solid percussion. >supercede< follows on nicely with the same warm vibe to round off a really solid package and a great way for fof to sign off for the year

headmans be loved surfaces from relishs recent label round up compilation 3.the taught 808 foundation of the track is supplemented with heart swelling synth lines that unfold eventually into an upbeat electronic pop song repleat with live bass and swirling strings. vocal duties are supplied by rosie blair, known to some as vocalist for moon unit,and one half of the duo boy of girl with paul mogg (formerly of the psychonauts).the song steps a fine line between electro, synth pop and the electro/ acoustic dualism of wide boy awake.

pocket is the snappy moniker of nyc based richard jankovich. as the principal creative mind behind the based electro-pop band burnside project he is not just well versed in top notch original productions but also is an indemand remixer (beck, radiohead, kristin hersh, of montreal, elk city, joanna newsom and many others). his debut release on tirk is the ever-so-tuneful >here in noiseville<. in this first single richard pairs up with steve kilbey from the australian rock band the church. steve adds his thoughtful and emotively melancholic vocal to the classic, quality synth-pop backing track. first up on the remix duties is sister-label nangs favourite german golden boy, justus köhncke. justus takes things on the dancefloor route, by adding bigger synths and some rushent-esque linn drum. both justus vocal and dub versions are included. next up, italian brioski fixates on the groove by adding his slap bass and driving groove.

tamed music had a flying start with their debut release (ft one of our favorite ripperton tracks and topped with a fresh skudge remix!). and no disappointment for the second release either! ripperton comes with another vocal track (vocals by van hai) that is more house orientated as the previous release, but still has that nice moody laidback vibe of the tmq001. almost dubby feel combined with the gentle voice of van hai makes it a standout release. comes with hot remix action of margaret dygas and iron curtis. sweet package ... expected to sell out as rapidly as the the first tamed music!

glasgows taz buckfaster - or just taz - was one of rwinas earliest discoveries.his two eps on rwina have leaned towards the dubstep side of things,imbuing them with the playful hip-hop inspired mischief that remains the rwina trademark, playing with dub skank on kingston bridge and sending off firecrackers of concentrated synth melody in nearly uncontrollable bursts on 20 red. he now makes a welcome return to the label at the end of 2011 with the neurotica ep with four brand new tracks of uncompromising glaswegian heat.

kowton and tom dicicco, residing in bristol and manchester respectively, make very different music from one another. kowtons seems to come from house, perhaps also electro and garage, often quite slow in tempo and hard to pin down to a specific genre. toms music is techno, bass heavy, melodic, textured and rooted around 125 bpm. with these distinctive styles the idea of a split ep might seem ambitious, but the result is four cohesive but different tracks that show the talents of both artists perfectly in the format of two originals on one side and two remixes of each others originals on the other. tom diciccos original is driven by a low-mid range thick stab and pounding kick drum, littered with intricate but not overbearing hi hat and snare work and some very atmospheric mid range. kowtons is subtle and sparse, low fidelity and plodding, with rattling percusion carrying the tune along. on the other side of the record, kowtons remix of toms original is driven by an enormous bassline, with an off kilter dubby feel to the slow tempo and genre defying tune. toms remix of kowton rounds off the ep with a return to stab driven techno, pulsating, dynamic and trance inducing.

alex and bill met 16 years ago when bill signed one of alex s first productions (is this the rhythm? by rhythmnvibe) to a new york label he was running. alex, whose father lives in the us, was a regular visitor to the states and they sent many happy hours together hanging out at the sound factory bar and comparing maw dubs. when bill returned to the uk in 1996, they had a few sessions together making house music, though neither of them can remember why they never finished anything or, indeed, what became of the tracks. fast forward a few years and they finally got back into the studio to make sweet music together under the moniker hotel motel. since then they have created a rich seam of work that some have already described as, like salvador dali with his pants down being fellated by deirdre barlow. few would disagree.

following their recent track on reduxs pick & mix vol. 1, the disco legend that is pete herbert and melbournes golden fleece further cement their collaboration with this full ep on space walker records. >ivory waves< is a 90s influenced cut of uplifting piano-driven balearic house, complete with lush cosmic flourishes, whilst >the bells of hackney< is a more low-slung, but no less powerful production. initially combining a snaking live bassline and spaced-out arpeggios, the track builds to a crescendo as heavily flanged piano and tights guitar licks come into play. the b-side meanwhile serves up two remixes of >ivory waves<, lithuanias downtown party network recompose it as an even more-good time anthem (if such a thing is possible) with their trademark melodic charm, while slovenias sare havlicek takes the track into deeper territory bringing the thick bassline teasing the melody with dubbed out stabs, slowly bringing the huge piano line in before dropping it with force, taking the anthem potential of the original and running with it.

following vincenzos astonishing recent album, >wherever i lay my head<, which really elevated the producers status into the stratosphere, we continue the story with three new remixes, from cult legend tom middleton, smooth-talking newcomers genius of time, and talented uk-based mic newman. tom middleton, who needs no introduction as the legendary producer behind such classic projects as the jedi knights, global communication and cosmos, hands in a modern deep techno remix that shimmers with melody and dubbed out echoes of the original version of >sometimes saturday<. leaning towards epic, with moody old-school synth builds set against contemporary punching bass tones, it certainly doesnt disappoint. swedens maverick slow-housers genius of time rework vincenzos >106 downtown< which is also a work of genius in its own right. the boys add sensitive, detailed down-tempo beats with some wonderful warm swirling vibes mic newman transforms >hello!< into a crafty fresh tech-house groover with his dub remix. floating, ethereal synths mix with bubbling acid and liquid beats in this seriously smooth and complex mix.

following the debut lp on ki, we have put together a few of our favorite artists to remix some tracks of their choice. it was important for us, that the artists kept their individual approach to their genre, so that we could get a very diverse release. first up is the japanese producer stereociti, who just released his debut album on mojuba records. he gives the title track >reisegefaehrte< his very own deep touch. second up is our close friend glitterbug, who seems to create a very own genre with his interpretation of >barracuda<. on the flipside stundman goes straight to the dancefloor. jacking beats and pounding basslines are his >reminder<. and as if p.laoss knew what the real deal is, he turned >subsistence< into a fata morgana trip back to the time when dub was really dub. perfect completion of what we expected from this remix ep.

back 2 back is built around a spontaneous live jam by dj pippi, tucillo and kiko navarro in dj pippis studio on ibiza. in a few hours they had finished the track. the ep opens with tucillo and willi graffs dub, a muscular, driving, stripped down rework of the original for a popping dance floor. kokis back dub is also a floor tool that has been well tested this summer by kiko navarro with great results. the ep finishes with a very cool afriki soul remix by bhoddi satva.

the new phoenix g (pg039) is an excellent deep and hypnotizing release. relying heavily on one shot chords and thumping vintage drum machines this is one for the bag. the a1 concequences is a real deep one with nice open hats and good places chords. a real open mix for the late / early hours. the b1 is a real vintage percussive slammer with nice one shots that together create a real oldschool vibe. the latin vocal in this track gives it a somewhat different vibe,really good for the dancefloor.the b2 is a dark peak time anthem. this will go off at any quality house evening. what a strange but wonderful vibe those rhodes in the middle are giving.true analog deephouse by mr.g

lb003 arrives courtesy of bristol born, brighton based producer sam kidel, aka el kid. following up his well received debut on immerse sam drops 3 tracks of wildly varied bass music. beginning with the title track >hypnosis<, lush ambient pads and plucked guitar soon give way to fearsome bass swells and metronomic percussion, coming across like early autechre remixed by floating points. second track >mud< drops the pace for a noisy house workout, reminiscent of fellow bristolians kowton, and labelmate vessel. >kachinja< on the flip is the straightest - and darkest - of the lot, a lurching warehouse techno cut that wouldnt sound out of place on ostgut ton. finally hyperdub wunderkid walton contributes a rough & ready funky dub of >hypnosis< to round out the ep.

a shiny picture disco for slow motion records release number 7 - disco wizard by francisco from jolly music. beamed from distant satellites via 1983 and picked up by a crack team of berlin based italian disco commandoes, the disco wizard brings to mind space, the tougher end of pre-84 italo, guys with beards and grace jones and amanda lear dancing the night away. a nagging baseline propels the track forward with alternating male and female vocals that coo and tease, whilst twinkling refrain evokes the giogio morders classic >the chase<. on the flip side the dub mix strips away most of the vocals and injects some serious strut into the beats. the rougher, tougher cousin of the original to send the boys and girls wild with cosmic desire. you have been warned.
