emerging nyc label lost soul enterprises present hidden city, their third 12 inch release and first single-artist ep. these four tracks by brooklyn native j slusher, made in collaboration with his fellow artists in the boroughs thriving experimental techno scene, are dark, menacing excursions into after hours territory. his previous work as a noise artist under various monikers (opponents, privilege, unstable systems) informs a uniquely uncompromising take on club music. slusher takes a stripped-down, industrial approach to percussion and populates it with otherworldly vocal snippets and growling synths. the result is hypnotic, evoking the severe moods and disused spaces so vital to the secret nightlife of the city.

sam kdc returns with perhaps his most unique release to date. four tracks that well and truly blur the lines between many genres, while keeping the tempo steady at 85/170 bpm. immolate kicks off proceedings, with its ethnic vocal chant and tripping kick drums. eerie vibes from start to finish. moving on to the frantic navigation to nowhere, which opens with an ominous arp and frenetic kick drums build up to an uneasy acid lead. flip side opens with vessel, which keeps the atmosphere dark and introduces techno sensibilities to the fold. finally, purgatory wraps things up with yet another frenzied climax. the order & the entity is a rewarding listen offering something truly unique. we guarantee you will not have heard music like this anywhere else!

nice price deal !!! raw waxes continues the release number four with one more original track from the noisemaker. the edition 4.2 is enriched by the remixes of korova, duo who were protagonists of our first release, and inigo kennedy, old school artist truly appreciated by raw waxes. on side c, point x15 advances as an acid robot going ahead with swollen broken baselines covering sinister and rough ambients. the rhythm gets darker and nimbler as far as the stylus moves on the decks. on the side d, korova delivers the mirror of their hypnotic and straight techno soul. drums play hard, ambients are kept happily enjoyable, while the acid synths and chords go with the flow embellishing the original version. inigo kennedy’s reinterpretation seems to come from early ’90 productions on missile records. acid elements and palpitating hi-hats, followed by the syncopated bass drum, gradually fire the minds up and accelerate the roll of weird but deep moments. pure industrial machine guns.

oscar mulero and christian wunsch joined forces again as spherical coordinates to work on the upcoming polegroup release and came up with four new cuts of futuristic deep space techno.

audiojacks gruuv label returns this october with a four-track package from french producer okain, featuring a remix from tuccillo. parisian artist samuel thalman aka okain has quite the standing in contemporary electronic music having been a prominent name as a dj and producer for the past fifteen years. playing at some of the leading nightclubs across the globe such as fabric, watergate, space ibiza, rex club and electric pickle to name but a few. thalman has also built quite the respectable back-catalogue in his time, releasing material via the likes of tsuba, bpitch, memento and cadenza, and here we see him add gruuv to his affiliations.

despite being an obsessive record collector for most his life, a globetrotting dj who s toured the world dozens of times over, a go-to remixer for numerous labels, both high profile and fledgling (dfa, mute, permanent vacation, warp, defected), co-owner of several imprints, lph itself being one of them, and producer behind a handful of house and disco tunes that started trickling out in the mid-aughts, jacques renault has managed to never release a true, honest to god ep comprised of originals. that s about to change with out of sync, a four- tracker that exemplifies all renault is, has been, and aspires to become —and that serves as a lead-up to his debut full-length, which will hit shelves next year

roberto bosco has selected in recent months kinys music, to better prepare his first 12 inch, consisting of four tracks, named *damaged memory*. the track *unknown* (a1) leads off the dance of the release on last drop records imprint. it is a proper exploration in an unknown sonic territory to most of the people, and also a difficult element to make out for those who are novice to the visionary component in the musical poetic of kiny. the track starts with rounds of recurring sirens, almost deafening, framed by dark and ghostly noises. something not easily identifiable, ambiguous and unknown, as the title itself says, is perceptible in its sound. all this helps to shape a bad presage that fades away into the mystery.

fantastic four track album sampler from jay haze & esb’s forthcoming ‘finding oriya’ album released this november on leftroom. philadelphia-born producer jay haze has carved out quite the career for himself over the past decade, having headed up the successful tuning spork and contexterrior imprints, as well as operating under his fuckpony pseudonym which has seen him unveil material for the likes of get physical, cocoon and bpitch. here we see haze pair up with esb (electric sound broadcast) aka elan benaroch, notably known for his work with canada’s deepen sound, to deliver a long player for the leftroom label. finding oriya is the musical culmination of the journey towards fatherhood for haze, here we see haze & elan explore a variety or ethereal, mind-bending and profound textures to create an intelligent, understated and charming collection. from the electronic beauty of finding oriya, the dropped-tempo nu-disco tinged feel of founded in you, through to the entrancing feel of friday always remembers, ands the mid-tempo magic of cant keep giving in, this eclectic four track sampler is a great introduction to the eagerly anticipated album.

after the very successful 64 ways ep that we released earlier this summer we are ready for more dam swindle boxed out goodness. the boys have selected some of their fave producers to lay their hands on four originals from the album. pressing on 180 gram vinyl.

nofitstate return with four tracks from hot talent a1 bassline whose reputation has been building of late from a succession of releases for the likes of dirtybird, get physical and gruuv amongst others. here hidden agenda finds the young producer in true devastating form. skippy percussion, a nod to the uks garage scene, vibes the track along nicely whilst the bass does the damage. burnt out piano island delves deeper, acting as a neat counterpoint to the more main room agenda. here the style is much more nuanced with a more hypnotic leaning. outsider picks up the pace against, albeit in a subtle, uplifting vibe with warped pianos and razor sharp percussion. t moe p rounds things off nicely with a moody bassline driven groove.

mallorcas dakpa has been on a roll since amam released his debut ep last fall. he has contributed to several compilations, including amams own hand out series, kina music s fade to k pt. 3 and wizz vinyl s sonar sampler 2014, plus eps for labels like district raw and serial number 849. but amam gets the honor of issuing his first own vinyl release, the distres ep. the opening title track is an exercise in jacking minimalism, vibrant tech house with just the essentials, but more than enough to get the floor moving. then, ademus gets into a slightly more colorful groove, with tropical percussive interplay and some whooping voice for a humanistic accent (is that brigitte bardot?). on the flip, virgo gives a modern update to the frenzy of acid house. the title alone brings virgo four to mind. on that note, this one is an effective tool for warping minds and evoking spastic dance moves. finally, the dependable gaetano vinci a.k.a. hooved reinterprets ademus with a heavy dose of melodic funk and symphonic washes, making the track into an entirely new creation.

deep, dark and instinctive techno/ rhythmic/ industrial/ drone music from manchester uk, are the words that can be found to describe the music of casual violence.. its safe to say that they picture the painting discovered in this new ep. expression unrelated is made up of four tracks as good as they are varied.. on the a side theres burn it all down , pure quality techno 4/4, dark and fleshy, the perfect bullet to hypnotise the dance floor in a few seconds.. youth horde, an interlude/break, deep aquifer on a down tempo beat, which rails in this a side beautifully. on the b side, the track who gave his name to the ep, expression unrelated is a track as dark as it is rhythmic. a broken devasted beat, over 9 minutes of insanity.. sensitive souls beware. we finish off with an outro/intro, where long and hypnotic strings interlace.. as already stated, pure drone music from manchester.

the culmination of four years writing and editing, anjou marks the first collaboration between labradfords robert donne and mark nelson since the release of that groups *fixed:context* lp. combining modular synthesis, max/msp programming and live instrumentation, anjou deftly weaves noise with gentle ambience and melody with texture. guitar, bass and steven hess (locrian, fennesz, pan american) live percussion give the eight pieces an immediacy and create a framework for the more abstract sounds of digital and analog synth programming. the product of twenty plus years of friendship, anjou is refined and challenging. an extension of the labradford sound-world but no mere victory lap, anjou represents donne and nelson stepping out and forward, their eyes firmly focusing on the future.

the return on bosconi of the wonderkids from firenze sud, herva and dukwa (aka marco d aquino) as life s track, consists in a explosive blend of pure freestyle ghetto goodness!! four burning tracks dense of special effects, sound manipulations through tape distortions and pyrotechnic structures: a side starts with the funky builder it fell down, a full on, rough and raw ultra filtered disco house dancefloor anthem in the vein of a more warped and f**ked up bangalter or shake shakir, while on the second cut there s the aggressive and drunk ghetto blaster of come on, on b side instead you ll find the breathtaking groove from the driving acid techno bossa of -rescue me- and the electro breaks from lost cassettes of the melancholic and dreamy closing ep lullaby -sometimes theycome back-..

what happens if such restless souls like akiko kiyama and laurine frost start to melt their sounds together? the result is that one of the most interesting piece of art of the forward-thinking techno music becomes alive. ’through the mountains ep’ is a golden section of their utopistic musical imaginations, influenced by classical minimalism, live instruments and the ordered chaos of contemporary techno and found sound elements. all the four tracks contain their recognisable fingerprints. the gently and respectful collaboration is proven by the perfect balance of chemistry. in the collage of their musical layers every tiny sound and every tiny breaks have its own weight and meaning. waving and playful structures, exciting journeys on the edge of reality.

the seventh modal analysis release comes from athenian producer and dj, anfs. following his remix for kondaktors signal 1, anfs returns to the label with his debut release, ground, a four track ep which consists of original material. borrowing sounds from early twentieth century folk greek culture, the ep is dominated by a rhythmic canibalistic spirit and a noisy distorted cue. ground 1 functions as an introduction, or rather ones initiation to the mystic rituals that prevail. the artist uses drones and distorted textures which increase in ground 2 and are backed up by drums that beat in a hard-and-slow ethnic tonality. ground 3 reveals a paroxysm of emotions which comes as a result from the combination of basslines and vocals that create a complex and twisted vortex. the trip ends with ground 4, a more stripped down monotonic ensemble that serves as an epilogue and a catharsis.
