der norwegische electro-pop-künstler gundelach hat bereits mit seiner debüt-ep und dem song games feat. ary auf sich aufmerksam gemacht. sein verletzlicher singer/songwriter-style auf soft elektronischem klangteppich lässt vergleiche mit james blake oder jamie woon durchaus zu. das debütalbum -baltus- nahm er zwischen oslo und london mit knut sævik (mungolian jetset), john calvert (ghostpoet, nao) und oyvind mathisen (cezinando, nils bech) auf. erste singleauskopplung ist das wundervolle duck hunting, ein analog elektronisches stück in nordic-noir atmosphäre, eindrucksvoll abgerundet mit gundelachs bon iver-eskem falsetto.

ocean parkway, the new sublabel from brooklyn s names you can trust, launches with a deep dive! drawing inspiration from sounds as varied as tortoise and trentmøller, lavender lagoon eschews traditional genre cliches, blending sampled drums and synth patches to paint an electronic collage inspired by the lush, organic flow of nature. the a-side presents an optimistic tryptic: a boy hunting for butterflies, dogs swimming in suburban pools, and the smell of spring rain. but flip it over to side b and a darker realm is revealed â&#128,&#148, one in which the cold physics of outerspace reign supreme, and the heavy computerized rhythms take control.

komponist roque banos hat schon scores für filme wie “der maschinist- (mit christian bale) und das remake von “evil dead” (regie: fede alvarez) produziert. seine neue arbeit für “don’t breathe” katapultiert ihn in den olymp der suspense- und horror-soundtracks. die vinyl-ausstattung ist - wie bei invada üblich - edel: klappcover, bedruckte inner-sleeves, orangefarbenes vinyl, downloadcode. “don’t breathe” ist nunmehr auch in den deutschen kinos zu bestaunen und in den top 10 der kino-charts. in den usa wurde der film ein so großer erfolg, dass er sogar -suicide squad- vom thron der kino-charts stieß. nicht schlecht für einen horror-film mit kleinem budget. die frankfurter allgemeine zeitung schreibt: “nein, das ist kein schockschrott, das ist eine echte horrorkinoperle: das dunkelkammerspiel “don’t breathe” von fede alvarez zeigt, wozu das genre fähig ist.” ein großer teil der nervenzermürbenden atmosphäre baut auf roque banos akustisches setting - statt klassischer instrumentierung gibt es hier düstere soundscapes.

correspondant can finally reveal the release of the remixes for man powers debut lp, which was released last year on correspondant. a year in the making, the remix package features artists and friends hand-picked by both jennifer cardini and man power himself. disco halals moscoman remixes the baggy splendour of beilsteiner, creating a rolling and belching extended opus more focused toward the peak time dance floor. hivern discs jmii takes hunting swan and turns it inside out, exploring space with a cerebral, schizophrenic quality. alternatively, pale blue (mike simonetti) takes boys beware and re-imagines it as an aggressive drum workout. completing the package, suade, the artist who also mastered the original album, replaces ten’s balearic leanings with an idm sensibility, yet still retains the optimism of the original track. all 4 remixes manage to exist as distinct works in their own right, while paying homage to the magpie approach of the original long player.

two years after his latest solo appearance on dement3d, francois x, also co-founder of the label, reveals his new ep unicorn paranoia. a record that sounds slightly more intimate indeed, after a period marked by close collaborations, especially with opuswerk (hiss:1292) and antigone (we move as one).

they say you have your whole life to make your first album, years upon years of growth, learning and experience filtered into one perfect record. your debut is supposed to be the one you labour over, while the follow-up is meant to be served up within spitting distance of the last. well, not if you’re london based wild palms. “we did that in reverse,” explains the band’s sardonic, quick-witted frontman lou hill. “the first album was just the songs that we would play live, we wrote it really quickly. but this one took ages...” five years in fact.
recorded by the band in the same self-built manor house studio where they made their 2011 de-but ‘until spring’, the new album ‘live together, eat each other’ is a lusciously layered offering of hazy experimentalism and off-kilter alt-pop, that follows in the auspicious lineage of beach house, cocteau twins and tv on the radio.
the vinyl lp is housed in a gatefold sleeve with download code included.

bang! patrick richard delivers a new ep with four bass-heavy house and techno hybrids. the a-side starts off with a wild, bass driven anarchic journey, followed by a pulsating jacking house inspired track, climaxing in a hypnotic groove. the deeper b-side begins in a dark and bass heavy territory, where a hunting analogue lead adds character. the final track is a collage of spaced out and seductive melancholic instrumentation for early morning sets. intricate arrangements, cinematic sonic landscapes and attention to detail makes this super limited ep a must have for anyone interested in electronic music pushing boundaries.

dj ralf is the italian icon who runs the much loved laterra recordings label and management, and is now back with ‘er suonone’, a new track from margot that is all set to be a late summer smash. anyone who has heard the legendary dj ralf (a cult figure who has been the subject of a documentary, has played all over the world, runs his own legendary bella ciao party and holds a cult residency in cocorico) play recently will most likely have heard this track in his set, and it has been an unknown but much loved secret weapon for a while now. as such this one sided vinyl pressing will please many people who have been hunting it down. margot, of course, is an italian pair of accomplished producers who have released on, les disques de la mort, hell yeah and border community and run their own margot records label. ‘er suonone’ is a pumping, deep, slow burning bit of cosmic house that builds and builds and teasers listens without ever releasing the pressure. monstrous kick drums drive it down below, pixelated stabs add suspense in the distance and icy hi hats slither in the foreground. it’s the sort of track to drop right at the peak time and it will surely go right off, with people fist pumping along to the groove.
early support by dj ralf, prins thomas, ivan smagghe, erol alkan, ed (chemical brothers), jody wisternoff, sasha, innervisions, jared, luca c, nick warren, fatboy slim, edwin (the foals), reude hagelstein, catz n dogz, laurent garnier, dubfire, martin ikin…

welcome to the dark side. where chaos is the constant, distortion forms the standard and frontiers are built out of opaque shadows. mumbling voices are hunting you through a maze of creepy synthesizer sounds. welcome to antifuse. with their latest release, the berlin-based duo nerkkirn are following their path of experimental techno sounds, this time leading into dark shades of whirring electronic sounds. by creating a gloomy, yet groovy tune, antifuse builds up a perfectly conductive path within the unique sound system of snork enterprises. like a mysterious rollercoaster, four versatile tracks are pulling you into a vague ride through various spheres of electronic sounds. starting off with high speed into the deep and gloomy mines of underground techno, dipode unfolds its dark side in full blast. moving forward, antifuse chases you upside down on a roaring bass line merging into electronichangover. there, in a reduced atmosphere of sound, subtle tunes still forcefully keep pushing you through an odd darkness until everything, then, flows into a slight glow at the end of the tunnel - reversebias.

hlrecs001 is the first 12inch release of russian hardcore drum & bass label harder & louder recordings. these 3 tracks represent our view on modern hard electronic music. famous hungarian hitman mystification strikes uncompromisingly with the schranz & bass banger *recovery*, tugie (uk) increases the offensive concept with the hip-hop hardcore crossover *bad motherfucker* and spanish warriors erre & hardlogik blast us with their unique bumba styles clanging snares and violent kicks from *perfect hunting machine*. that is what we are, and we will not dwell on this.

correspondant are proud to announce the release of their first ever album, the debut from man power.

you would be forgiven for not knowing the newest addition to the slowly expanding claremont 56 roster. you see, there has been no recorded output from german combo bambi davidson since the release of their largely overlooked minimal post-rock debut album, el faco, in 2000. until now, that is.

dalhous is the latest collaborative incarnation of marc dall and alex ander, who have previously released on blackest ever black as young hunting. the change of name reflects a new clarity and conviction to their work, and while certain sonic signatures, not to mention certain extra-musical influences (particularly the films of jack bond and jane arden), have carried over from their last project, they are handled here with a newfound sophistication and restraint. mitchell heisman marks the beginning of a new chapter in the precocious duos development, and heralds dalhouss debut album on blackest ever black in 2013.

2012 witnessed the birth of a shadowy transatlantic musical conspiracy known as bohemian groove. taking their inspiration from the infamous bohemian club, a conclave of powerful men who met annually at the bohemian grove campground in california to plan world-changing developments including the manhattan project, this musical axis of evil spans toronto and helsinki, with their base of operations in berlin.

are you deep in tha groove? amazing bouncing and groovin 4 tracker. after the successful volume 1 eyepatch is back with an ass shacking and rhythm hunting vinyl.

a product of his surroundings, wasserfall creates organic, electronic music using an array of tools - including a nord modular g2x, a roland tr 909, a roland sp 404 sampler & an apogee ensemble – but dont think for one minute that its all about the gear, and that he is just a technical producer. field recordings feature heavily in his work, and you can often find him patrolling the streets of oslo or berlin hunting for the perfect sound that will convey his ideas within the piece. anders is just as at home creating scores for film as he is producing rhythms for the dance floor, during his time in berlin he created a contemporary soundtrack of the old russian silent-fim classic a man with a movie camera (dziga vertov 1929) which was performed live in berlin, bremen and in bergen. after all this is said and done, the e.p boils down to just one thing - house music for the heads. nothing lightweight, just the heavy goods. long time coming on vinyl, dont miss out on the result of a year of work getting it just right, if you managed to bag the previous #gcw vinyl you know we take absolute pride in our output. a strictly limited pressing. mastered to 180g vinyl by the one & only john dent @ loud mastering.

after long years of work the author of unique and successful albums shallow and profound (2000) & splendid isolation (2005) is back with his new long-player, passive control, which is considered to be the third, closing part of the trilogy. passive control is another typical contradictory, multilayered yonderboi title that can be explained in different ways. one of them refers to the constantly changing and unpredictable economical/social situation of today, which is witnessed by most of us inertly, hoping that this recession-thing gets sorted out soon.

from the estrela archives of exactly that period comes the original, which was crafted by portuguese calapez at the time, as well as the newly edited pyjamas remix. calapez builds the theme monkeymonkey on top of a playful piano roll and swinging beats – simple and pure. with a wink the pyjamas remix carries that approach and the minimalist melody on, while adding a nice portion of acid. but the absolute highlight of this release, as already alluded in the incoming quote is definitively the more than cutting edge house remix of sacco vanzetti duo. funk, power, tempo and lightness: its got the ground formula to spin itself into the perpetual hunting grounds of the absolute house purist.

elan, mitglied des hochgelobten und sehr exklusiven wedidit collectives, teil der indigo pyramid crew sowie resident des critical beatdown in san diego, ist momentan dabei eine triologie von eps auf monkeytown records zu veröffentlichen. seine zweite ep >alligator snaps< ist als limitiertes colour-vinyl mit 4 brandneuen tracks und einem remix von cosmin trg erhältlich.

so summer is here and the time has come for two of the finest swiss djs to come together to present their debut 12 inch entitled >kassandra ep<. both wandler and mastra have released a number of solo eps on a number of swiss labels including the infamous motoguzzi records. zurich based wandler and bern based mastra are both constantly playing in the swiss circuit holding down residencies in zurich at zukunft, the hive and cabaret. having said that these two are no strangers to the formula that most djs seek when hunting for the bombs necessary to make a set magic. wielding a smooth sense of linearity and accessibility these two have truly crafted three cuts essential for the late night session.

symp.tom welcomes another new name on the imprint, this time its nobody other than sei2ure who strengthen our ranks!
known for his very raw distortion-packed style, sei2ure aka jan kamphuis already gained a lot of fame with his smashing tracks at enzyme records (pneumatic transmission, zinc, armorgeddon and rocket fuel to only name a handful). we always felt that sei2ure would suit perfectly on the symp.tom label and therefore we are very happy to have him unleash his newest ep >noise pollution<!

we lost track of rocco branco nearly 5 years ago. no >goodbye<, nothing, he simply vanished off the grid. a few days ago, mr. branco staggered into the hirsch camp, smelling of sex and jaegermeister, no explanation. no apologies. rocco simply handed over two tracks, turned around, and walked away... diamant captures the sex of a one-night stand. a metaphysical launch pad of selfindulgence. no compromises, purely physical, firm and purposeful – precisely how we like our techno. gibbon depicts sex with a lover – reminiscent of gratifications past. familiar, nubile and polished a mastered motion of lustful appetite. in roccos return, we find a record of lifes carnal moments. good hunting!

nice price deal !!! limited white label 4 track ep featuring some dope remixes from ruckus roboticus that never appeared on vinyl. until now. his dancefloor friendly remixes of bloc partys >hunting for witches<, pase rocks >so f*cking disco<, kanye wests >love lockdown< and lmfaos >i m in miami bitch<. the bloc party mix is perfect for the electro heads (think dfa or gomma), while his kanye remix might be the best house remix of that track done yet and his pase rock remix is a fidget house anthem in the making. get this!

capricorn rising is a brand new label for music response, hunting out old and rare tracks and re inventing them in their own way. first up on the label we have earth calling and spectacular.earth calling is a long lost and hidden gem featuring the vocals of a certain gordon sumner, which has been reworked for 2009 in true style, while spectacular is rare a track from can from 1977 another gem reworked by the capricorn rising crew.

new ep from the superb evasive records featuring the cream of the tech-house crop with some amazing early feedback. galactic and house hunting we believe are the best tracks yet from coles & coker, and both tracks have already been destroying dancefloors in london & europe since before christmas, courtesy of evasive hq djs rob pearson and kirsten sees. the tracks have also been generating a lot of hype on internet radio show area38 (myhouse-yourhouse.net). jeff bennetts tracks are equally as good - in typical swedish style, ridzo and perma frost are truly twisted, abstract, and infectious grooves.

20 years time, when vinyl diggers are hunting the most obscure house and techno treasures from the 90s and noughties, theyll probably turn to expert patrick specke for assistance. this dj and producer from düsseldorf is dedicated to the machines that he uses to craft his metallic, shimmying tunes - but hes equally committed to collecting the best pieces of vinyl that walk the earth. you can hear it in his tracks for this desolat release: a solid understanding of the space between the beats and the subtly textured samples that help make up a fine dance-floor groove. tracks like get me out and bitchual linestepper use tight drum loops to build the kind of stealth attack that lends itself to dancefloor damage. on naggin me the building blocks that make up the classiest 4/4 recordings are reshuffled and stretched out - from here to mars and back
