the fifth release in this tribute series to the techno legend christian morgenstern is here. side a kicks off with a trippy version of morgenstern’s “spiegelkerker”, by konsequent label chief maral salmassi - a carefully set psychedelic trap, building up gently just to drag you through its tunnelling groove, inside the eye of the hurricane. twr72’s remix of “ex machina” on b1, merges the interlocking samples of the original in a vortex, spiral around the pounding kick, rolling right into the heart of the milky way.the final track, a remastered version of morgenstern’s “girls got rhythm” sets the pace, with a dense groove and pounding beats, accenting a colourful cluster of house elements, with streams of sparkling metallic percussion.

for the third release on kwench records, cassy collaborates with stockholm’s art alfie. between them they deliver two diverse tracks brought together with a touch of class and cassy’s distinct vocal. for the remix, german dj / producer chris count rounds off the ep by delivering an acid tinged version of ‘solar’.
art alfie enjoyed a successful 2017 as a solo artist. his first project of the year, the ‘reveries of’ lp, released on none other than studio barnhus. this was swiftly followed up by another solo effort on his karlovak imprint he runs alongside mr tophat. both releases garnered plenty of support from across the dj spectrum.

following on from a hectic summer touring across the globe, ny producer joeski returns to the studio to create his next release, due on crosstown rebels in 2018. the release unfolds with the original version of i want you - a fierce, driving beat is juxtaposed alongside the sensual and smoldering vocal as the bassline rumbles on. pure 4am, fist pumping pleasure. the flip side introduces the disco mix of the title track. but don’t let the ‘disco’ lull you into a false sense of security. the track is fuelled by intense industrial sounding smashes and an abundance of layers that creep ever closer. a founding member of nyc’s the chocolate factory dj collective, joeski has been a staple in the underground scene in new york since 1991, holding down a residency at the city’s famed nightclub- roxy. he’s played alongside the likes of danny tenaglia, louis vega and roger sanchez. his career has seen him release on electrik soul, siesta, chez and camouflage as well as launching his own imprint maya records in 2001. this year, the prolific producer has juggled a jam-packed touring schedule taking in australia, new zealand, south america and europe, as well as ibiza for do not sleep and misfits.

deeply concerned with the here and now versus sister label was/is electro archaeology, is/was delivers the goods once again with this various artists 12- zeroed in on the pittsburgh scene. you can feel the steel city tension reverberating in naeem s edgy beatdown -forward facing-, while hits only takes things in a slightly cleaner, modernist direction that aligns with some of the uk soundsystem interpretations of electro that have emerged in recent years. shawn rudiman takes control for the b side with two jams that tip their cap to the veteran producer s long and accomplished career, but they sound as fresh as anything else on the record too. -derelict- is a gnarly, bloated banger of a track, and -asimolar- takes the route towards cybotron, kraftwerk and the truly foundational version of electro in all its lysergic glory.

the 2011 debut album from gregory porter back on double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve. includes the original version and opolopo remix of “1960 what?”.

shep pettibone - a name that commands the greatest of respect from djs, diggers, dancers and music lovers across the galaxy. a name that has been emblazoned across so many club classics that the accompanying discography is simply dizzying. the underground disco of groups like aurra, first choice and candido and early 80s experimental dubbed out club cuts of cult outfits like nv, alisha and carol williams and even the heady pop chart successes of bands like level 42, the pet shop boys, jermaine jackson and many more, have all benefitted from pettibones prowess behind the mixing boards. a true musical legend and the man who literally crafted the sounds and styles of almost 2 decades of club music back to back, shep pettibones pedigree can never be called in to question.

whiskey disco small batch 5 welcomes the long-awaited appearance by the man sitting in whiskey towers, sleazy mcqueen. this three-tracker perfectly encapsulates the label boss unique take on housey disco. from the boogie-heavy pretty baby, a late night chugger which has seen an earlier version released on house of disco to the party starting leftfield antics of smq s old band, tres gueros and rounding out with the smq dub of berliner snax recent album, out now.

both tracks here are classics dancefloors tunes , nothing rare, just favourite tunes that alex and stéphane played for many years.
on the a side the two tons version is much longer than the original, and remastered for a full effect on the dancefloor. we love this tune so much, we played it a lot already and its still rocking so we thought we share it with you on a fat 12inch for more disco soul gospel pleasure.
the b side is an amazing track from seawind that everybody who is into jazz funk or latin jazz with vocals will dig it. this version is different than the original, we kept only the more dancefloor friendly parts and we extended the beginning and end of the track with only drum rhythmic reprogrammed for mixing easily in your sets with other tunes. please enjoy as much as we do because we love those edits, we love those tunes, we love music we are very happy with this release because its really really good!

justin chapman (half of the kemeticjust duo) is back with -stay my way-, his first release on visions recordings.
inspired by a distant collaboration with alex attias, the soul original version features chapman s signature vocal harmonies floating over latin influenced house rhythm and melody to provide the motivation for feet and hips.
the just one remix pushes things into the realm of broken beats with a hard swing on the drums, and a deep and jazzy bass walk that gives edge to the keys and vox melodies. classic just one here!justin has produced records for neroli, rushhour, sonar kollektiv and some collaboration with recloose for planet e and deetron for music man.
this single for visions is a long overdue collaboration with an artist we wanted to work with since 2001 when visions was based in london, so you can imagine how excited we are to take justin on board and release this single.

das selbstbetitelte album der avant-pop-musikerin sophia kennedy vom april vergangenen jahres auf dj kozes pampa label begeisterte fans und kritiker gleichermaßen. sophia kennedy gilt völlig zu recht als ausnahmekünstlerin in der zeitgenössischen musik aus deutschland. die symbiotische verbindung setzt sich nun mit der veröffentlichung einer neuen 10inch fort, inklusive zwei unveröffentlichten songs, auf der sich sophia weiterhin der handwerkskunst eines songwritings diesseits des mainstreams widmet. im zentrum von -being special- steht ein trio aus perkussivem piano-riff, streichern und handclaps, dass das herz mit der anmut eines großen cinematografischen gefühls wärmt. in kennedys version von -afraid- - einst von der all-time-underground-legende nico geschrieben - scheint eine spröde do-it-yourself-angelegenheit, doch der song entwickelt sich ausgeklügelt in kleinen schritten: sophias unverwechselbare stimme gewinnt an fülle und wird zeile für zeile dynamischer, wie sie durch wiegenlied-artige strophen schweift. -apple in the basket- schließlich ist das verschrobene schlussbild, verkörperung eines wirbelnden zirkuskarussells, das sich im verzerrenden glas eines spiegelkabinetts reflektiert und wo der ort, der eigentlich für den refrain reserviert war, der sich steigernden wiederkehr nun grotesk verzerrter orgeltöne überlassen wurde.

instrumentalkompositionen. mit dem in den siebzigerjahren beginnenden siegeszug elektronischer tanzmusik hat sich der remix als produktionsmethode fest im musikbusiness etabliert. dabei ist die kunstform, bereits vorhandenes material neu und vor allem ganz persönlich zu interpretieren, ein phänomen, das es erstens schon vorher und zweitens in der klassischen musik gab. der new yorker pianist bruce brubaker ist ein künstler, der seine gesamte karriere diesem konzept gewidmet hat. er wurde dafür bekannt, stücke anderer künstler nicht nur nachzuspielen, sondern in deren kompositionen seine persönlichkeit originär einzuschreiben, so dass sie eine neue, einzigartige form annehmen. zu seinen besonderen stärken zählt die interpretation der musik von philip glass. auf seinem album -codex- geht brubaker einen schritt weiter, indem er gleich zwei originale auf künstlerisch editierende weise miteinander in dialog bringt. zum einen werke aus der -codex faenza-, einer erst in den 1930ern wiederentdeckten sammlung mit instrumentalmusik für orgel, klavier und harfe aus dem frühen 15. jahrhundert, zum anderen stücke aus terry rileys 1964 veröffentlichter zusammenstellung -keyboard study no. 2-.
