limited edition of 500 copies on transparent & black splattered double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.
deru aka benjamin wynn is an emmy award winning american composer and music producer. deru’s last record, 1979, dealt with individual human emotions. his new project, torn in two, zooms out and deals with human existence as a whole. it finds feelings of frustration, dissociation and anger, but from a high vantage that affords perspective and allows the project to include acceptance, beauty and tranquility. torn in two is set for release on october 19th via friends of friends (anenon, shlohmo, perera elsewhere). the music lives in evolving landscapes of violence and beauty, with compositions that shape-shift, flutter, and decimate one s sense of time and place. the album is a collection of microtonal pieces where the pitches were derived from acoustic instruments, and processed woodwind and brass recordings. both represented new directions for wynn, and the results are pieces that are more dynamic and full-spectrum than his previous body of work. they explode into walls of distortion and recede into quiet acoustics.

an impressive debut ep on fledgling uk label uncertainty principle from berlin-based artist larry. sys 001 features four tracks of superbly produced microtonal electronica and techno, cerebral and banging in equal parts. opening track systems hyperthread ramps up the tension before growling into action, techno thumper systems obfuscate hits like a jack hammer, and systems online resets the mood before systems encoder sends us spiralling into the future. one to watch.

marionette is very proud and happy to announce kilchhofer s debut album the book room. benjamin kilchhofer is not new to the world of recorded music, yet he doesn’t seem to fit into a particular scene or group. as an outsider he is, however, fully immersed and melded into his own universe. he mentally escapes to a parallel world and weaves an alternate reality which would otherwise not exist in his daily life. kilchhofer avoids the spotlight and therefore isn’t really visible in today’s culture of ever changing content and social media. this is where marionette steps in to attempt to shed as much light as possible on this unique and incredibly talented artist. the book room is kilchhofer s musical diary, it s his library of emotions. it s a fairytale, an imaginary place shaped by exotic cultures, an escape from modern society, a collage of real and imagined experiences. you can hear influences abstracted from a wide number of musical approaches: the story-telling nature of folklore music, naive and conflicting rhythms of tribal drums, melodies and pads reminiscent of classical minimalism and microtonal experimental music, the freeform approach of early electronic music and krautrock, and buried deep within the tracks some hints of hedonistic dance and club music.

after 18 12- singles and eps, cgi has finally found a record suited for its first full-length lp release, hurt plaza from atlanta s own pamela_ and her sons. pamela_ is the solo music project of alessandra hoshor, an atlanta-based multimedia artist, and 1/2 of evil dance project big ded. their microtonal compositions build up from slow perceptual movements into heavy dance sets full of deconstructed vocals. pamela_ is microtonal, cerebral dance music. fragmented, off-kilter anxiety techno with an emphasis on texture, pattern, and rhythm. familiar palettes are rearranged and presented in a form completely alien, opening new pathways to what is possible within the realm of electronic composition without ever underestimating the power of suggestion…effectively like looking into the eyes of your best friend for the first time agai

felix bernhardt (afu limited, microtonal, 4club records) proves amazing skills in producing weird techno music

this disquiet is a layering of many, the process is the result: a slow-churning, microtonal wash, at once liquid and brilliantly crystalline in affect. two timbres fracture into many. a tectonic drone slides below and aerates a chorus as vocals flicker in and out of being, wrestling with silence. cacophony blends into order as subtle harmonies appear. what bence has written falls somewhere between an electronic production and a classical composition. where these two forms intersect is where disquiet occurs.

florian fiernow from halle presents his debut ep on cometomusic. remix support comes from felix bernhardt (afulab, microtonal) who delivered a storming techno monster.

jiaolong011 sees daphni teaming up with composer/arranger owen pallett (final fantasy/arcade fire/beirut etc..) the a-side has been a staple in daphnis dj sets for the last year delivering bassweight worldwide. *that track is an enigma - when i listen to it at home it seems relatively innocuous but when i play it out all hell breaks loose*, says dan. the b-side is something even more strange and special - tiberius is perhaps the worlds first microtonal electroacoustic violin techno track.

2016 repress ... alecs newest strike after the orville ep on microtonal. supported by richie hawtin, popof, stephan bodzin, technasia, m.in, someone else, dinamoe, matt john and many more!! also frustrated by superfluous junk? the new uncrufter 1000 is the perfect medium to free your ears deep-cleansing from all the every day s cruft. it reliably removes incrustations and prevents brain corrosion. get it today in your local lampenladen (ipoly recommends kaufmann & ferdinand), get a piece of bonus finishing by haito and reprise true tidiness. knock off needless stuff û with the new uncrufter 1000!

after a long development with several releases for labels like microtonal and inclusion records sascha finally decided to set up his own playground to release music with heart and emotions. the debut ep is pretty much showing his large variety of producing unique music.

great new ep by sven kegel (drehkontrolle) from m.m.a.d. / 10inch / terminal m / microtonal / plattenbau-music, brings some summer feelings into this cold winter!

the mangue labelheads are pushing forward and proove that the label has a pretty unique sound ? straight and very melodical. and again they welcome microtrauma (traum schallplatten, microtonal) for another hot remix.

after several releases on labels like bar25, microtonal, dantze and etuirecords end of tape finally hit the box with their tape jam ep.these guys don t talk with each other – they just do music and thats the best. the result of this gone wrong musician friendship (but tight producer team at the same time) you can celebrate with this ep. this is no snow from yesterday – it s the musical climatic change of tomorrow – without any opportunity.

averse to any easy classification, rainbow arabias continent-trekking, kaleidoscope pop is rooted in no particular time or place, employing modern technological processes to an array of musical cultures and eras. the los angeles duo began with the purchase of a lebanese casio that played microtonal scales and eastern beats, with which they quickly recorded their propulsive first ep, the basta, synthesizing bossa nova and industrial post-punk with heavy middle eastern vibes. digging deeper for inspiration from the worldly found sounds of sublime frequencies compilations, their follow-up ep, kabukimono, expanded the color palette of their >fourth world< pop with dark, arabic disco-dancehall jams sitting alongside sunnier moments with caribbean and african flourishes...

moenstertime! finally lexy & gunjah hooked up their own label for your dancefloor pleasure. directly starting with a boom-collabo with soffy o (well-known from their work with toktok in the past). >chronicles< is a real earworm with hot remixes coming from david august (stil vor talent, diynamic) and end of tape (bar25, microtonal, wba, etui).

microtrauma is back. after the successfull >calcium ep< on microtonal (received huge support by various key-djs ) the boys are back with another slamming techhouse record. crunchy primetime stuff!

played by laurent garnier, dylan rhymes, dubfire, carl cox, mr g., stacey pullen, kyle geiger, anderson noise, steve lawler, lützenkirchen, dario zenker + many more ... the abnormal boyz were born in naples, a town with a great history in all fields of modern art and design, their music is fresh, constantly mutating, based on funky sounds, minimal bass-lines and great grooves! the group is in the record market since 2007 with successful products and tracks on the belgian sammelplatz records, globox & loose reords from italy and the amazing frankie records imprint. at the moment, the guys remixed for two german labels: kaufe musik and microtonal. a big success is expected for the latest ep, out these days, on the newborn label splitsound in cooperation with their talented friend joseph capriati. other essential cooperations: an ep and two remixes on the digital labels minibus and suara and a remix for dj emerson recently out on micro.fon 013, which is already popular on all floors, from berlin to rio de janeiro! because of the huge succes of this particular remix emerson and holgi star decided to feature them on their style rockets imprint

support comes from laurent garnier, anderson noise, chris fortier, gunjah, jamie stevens.. ipoly music is the new imprint a&r ed by alec troniq and mentalic, managed by microtonal records. after various releases for etui records, phonocake and microtonal the two talented travellers have found their own place of creativity and reveries. ipoly stands for melodic dancemusic to lead deeper sentiments back to the dancefloor where body and mind become reunited. on ipoly001 alec troniq immerses via sub aquers to abyssal spheres, to dive through his own world of myths. on the other side a daunting mood of odd claustrophobia is created, to flip afterwards into a quite oppositional flow
