this time we releasing music of someone who has nothing to do with music professionally, it�s something only about passion and inspiration. a very modest ukrainian boy, aleksei berezovskiy is a photographer, but sometimes when he feels like some sound is coming out of his soul he stays in front of his computer making actually a great music. he never shares his music in public, only with some friends and i was lucky enough to be informed about such a talent, so this is how we got into this point.

back in 1962 when this, their third album was released, the group consisted of smokey, ronnie white, pete moore and brother and sister bobby and claudette rogers. while he had yet to be featured in the billing by name that came in 1965 robinson�s photo was top and centre of the lp cover. the ten songs featured barely amounted to 27 minutes of music, but what i ll try something new may have lacked in quantity it more than made up for in quality. and the reason was clear. six of the ten songs stem from robinson s pen five solo efforts and the sixth, closing track this i swear, i promise , a co-write with janie bradford. let s savour an album that, as one perceptive critic put it, features the miracles at their early best... as young, eager kids just starting out, filled with optimism, youthful exuberance and enthusiasm, long before record-company politics, favouritism and restrictions changed the group forever.

phillys instant funk are one of salsouls most well-known and respected groups. appearing on the legendary tsop label in 1976 the outfit was renowned for their ultra-tight musicianship and for backing disco icon bunny sigler as his group. the late 1970s saw them sign to nycs salsoul label and this is the point where this compilation comes to life. i got my mind made up was the groups opening shot on salsoul and was a huge hit for them, helped in part by a super long, stripped back and funked out remix by paradise garage jock larry levan. this track and a whole host of others feature on this amazing compilation and snapshot of one of disco s toughest rhythm sections, boasting all their hits and some stellar mixes from levan, tom moulton, john morales, francois kevorkian, shep pettibone and more! this whole selection features the mixes in their 12inch glory, unedited, end to end, as intended. a truly essential package for the die-hard disco aficionado or for those who are exploring this most important movement in dance music for the first time. curated with the full input and backing of salsoul records and carefully selected to reflect the truly timeless nature of the music contained within. for listening, for dancing, for turning on a party! remastered by optimum mastering. artwork & design by million dollar disco. fully authorised and approved by salsoul records.

vinyl-only ep with tracks taken from debut album, discovery in the atomic garden - previously releasing as community corporation on argot and crisis urbana recordings. like changing the channel, changes in one�s life can suddenly bring about a new perspective. after moving from detroit to seattle, producer taylor hawkins suddenly found himself on flora fm. previously recording as community corporation, this fresh beginning in emerald city brought new sounds into hawkins� repertoire. where he was once surrounded by cheap boogie and disco records in detroit, seattle�s used bins were full of uk imports, early 90s ambient techno records and the idm that followed. these new influences injected judicious breakbeats and top notch electro sensibilities into his already adventurous midwest techno aesthetic. it�s as if his music has come alive, each song a new sound world abuzz with fluttering synths, nimble percussion, and soaring melodies. recorded as single live takes using an mpc to control his drum machines and synthesizers, the flora fm music flowed quickly from hawkins and needed only gentle edits. the eight tracks on his digital debut album, discovery in the atomic garden, document his experience finding his way in seattle and in life, all through the lens of a fantastic and somehow futuristic musical viewpoint. the vinyl-only ep atomic garden includes four of the album�s most danceable tracks, all wrapped in gorgeous artwork by patrick savile

a chance encounter in barcelona, spain brought us together to make this record happen. it�s a precious little marvel of love from kou keri kou and electric cowbell. based in barcelona, spain, the group began with the aim of making music to dance to, taking inspiration from all over the world with no fear: the music from cuba, perú, jamaica, congo and nigeria is as important for kou keri kou as the music played in europe or in the united states. los zafiros, gary numan, los destellos, radio futura, sunny ade and kiko veneno share place in their imagination and help them create open-minded pop that always looks to the future. their lyrics are sometimes open, sometimes a bit more cryptic, sometimes political and sometimes biting, but always try to communicate with the listeners while trying to make them dance. they�ve been playing together for two years, creating songs that didn�t exist before, urging the people to dance and singing about their issues, which may also be yours.

exile is the next level basecamp of johannes heil. we at exile know that it is nonsense to write anything about music, because music can only be translated by listeners ear. so close your eyes. dont speak. dont think. just listen..... we are exile. mastering and cut my dubplates and mastering berlin.

five italian talents of underground scene. solid ep from raw house to jungle jams. elio (dancing like quagmire / 800hz) received likes by marcelus pittman, roman flugel, pablo valentino and pender street steppers. keep an ear on this guy because many releases will come out soon. robbenspierre (dusky adriatic), sheesma party resident. he really doesnãt like to talk about himself. all you need to know is that he is an italian dj and producer and that he plays records that will make your ass shaking a lot and your mind blowing out of the floor. he drinks strongly, so offer him a drink and donãt give up.

for alan oldham, artistic expression is a way of life, taking multiple forms and medi-ums throughout his lifetime. before he was ever known as dj t-1000, he was a published car-toon artist and radio dj in detroit writing press releases for underground resistance to get by. one day, underground resistance was in need of a last minute dj for their tour in aus-tralia, and a door flew open for alan oldham. with passport in hand he departed on his jour-ney as a dj, which little did he know would eventually span continents. influenced by every-thing around him, his work has dynamically changed and evolved along with his life. currently as an international dj living in berlin, his latest creation is the acidspace ep, released by elypsia records under the detroitrocketscience name. the traveler himself takes us on an intergalactic adventure, beginning with acidspace (8:48). with a steady beat and a unique blend of serene space sounds, this jam excites the imagination for the journey to come. it is followed by rocket to berlin (7:20), a subtle and intricate mix that entices one to enter the unknown. vesta system (6:22) finishes the ep off on a note that leaves lis-teners grooving and enjoying the ride. creativity and sweet sounds are what its all about for alan oldham. with his recent musical shift to mellower, sci-fi inspired jams, he continues to let listeners see for themselves.

with its third release, hundert is diving further into the technological maelstrom that has slowly transformed our perception of reality and what this thing called life is. dj oks private messages poses some crucial questions about how we find, form and maintain relationships in our day in age. fittingly, its sound was forged seemingly everywhere and nowhere at once: classic new york-leaning deep house vibes meet uk-inspired gunshot sounds and the frantic grooves of contemporary outernational club music, balearic feels converge with the slick sound palette of our digital environments. private messages is as immersive as an ever-refreshing newsfeed, but just as emotional and real as the next person checking in on you via imessage. dj ja and dj neins third effort can be as much enjoyed in the sweat-drenched physicality of a crammed club as it may serve as the perfect soundtrack for when you are home alone, connected with the entire world via a dimly-lit interface. these four tracks will touch your heart like a spectre attack would infiltrate the device you are using right now. and you know that it is unpatchable. all hardware problems are.

fromtheoldtothenew was originally released in 1996 and is the second full length on peacefrog from steve �stasis� pickton. growing up as a teenager in east london, break-dancing and writing graffiti with b12�s mike golding, steve pickton�s musical education moved along a familiar path, from hip-hop to electro and onto techno. schooling himself in music theory and purchasing a sampler pickton set about making his own music.

as fabrice lig has contributed to the kanzleramt history � we are returning the favour and congratulate with this release to his 25th stage-anniversary! black stone is taken from universal tech ep of 2003 (ka089 12inch | digi). its powerful sequence was always considered as one of the best ever to be exposed on kanzleramt. so more than deserving and about damn time 3 new black stones emerge: polished into an epic set-starter or the jet-black time-lapsed grinding and compressing in the earth�s crust or raw acid washed. heiko leaves the choice to you.

25 years of distillery. that�s a memory-laden, even historical event for underground and club culture. or let�s just say, culture in general. getting into detail about the impact, this club had for the last quarter-century, would fill a couple pages, so let�s just state the obvious real quick: distillery has witnessed and co-determined socio-cultural change and progress in its past. be it in its hometown leipzig, basically building up the city�s infrastructure for club culture over the years. or be it on national or international scale. it carries a legacy of being one of the longest-serving and one of the most influential clubs in germany. period.

in the making of her first studio barnhus record, veteran dj and world-travelling introvert bella boo divided time between bedroom studios in ladbroke grove and hornstull, where she would hook up a dusty old tanzbaer, press record and sing straight into the laptop microphone over fuzzy r&b harmonics and snappy analog drums. the result is a collection of fascinating and fascinatingly groovy tracks, shuffling about with grace and vigour in the secret place where warm club music and introspective audio diaries meet to mingle.

up next on trouble maker we have got some intergalactic riddims courtesy of newcomer cosmic weirdos - extra terrestrial. the aptly named >renegade< keeps things cool on the inside and rowdy on the outside....somewhere between electro & techno this is the track nasa have been trying to discover for the past decade. >satisfaction< takes us on a trip around jupiter and finds itself disco dancing with unidentified alien lifeforms. on the remix we have got someone who definitely knows a thing or two about inter-dimensional space travel - mr carl finlow aka random factor aka silicon scally - who serves up exactly the kind of quality you would expect from the captain of the starship enterprise. the truth is out there...

emotional rescue and jamwax return to capo disco with the first ever-official release of a holy grail of the caribbean disco sound. fully licensed and remastered especially for this release, there is no now requirement for badly pressed rip offs. while little is known about the crashers, all leads point to an incarnation of the revolving �house� band of glen adams. as often the case, the floating nature of jamaican born labels, rhythm sections naming and renaming to fit occasions was endless.

�yuxtaposición� is a recently unearthed treasure recorded by a tight italian trio in miami during the early seventies. until now, this music has only been heard in office backgrounds, tv commercials and movie soundtracks. but the perseverance of an admirer brought about its first-ever release on the italian schema label. imagine hearing a 1972-era cal tjader quartet without cal tjader and you get an idea of what to expect. it�s slightly latin, lightly funky and truly enjoyable. �yuxtaposición� offers enough to interest a jazz listener. but the sounds heard in these 35 minutes are really better appreciated as mood music. lead man, cabildo, composer of all ten tunes here, has a knack for writing jazzy little hooks that launch his tasty, well-crafted keyboard solos. often alternating fender rhodes and piano within the same song, his playing maintains a hypnotic command that recalls bob james� cti style. electric bassist bobby fares and percussionist max ronnie make subtle, supportive contributions that serve only to enhance cabildo�s sound. there�s a funny thing about yuxtaposición too. it�s kind of like developing an addiction. you may not pay much attention to it at first. but before you know it, you�re hooked. you need to hear it to be satisfied. a very nice surprise.

124 recordings know how to put together a deep house compilation, and they re sounding fierce on this latest, appropriately titled levels up. the jams come heavy and funky from a range of on-point operators, leading in with tom jay s quintessential new jersey bump n grind on hanging on. david moran is a little more shadowy but no less groovesome, while nicola brusegan takes things on a sweet and smooth tip. across the whole double pack there are classically informed jams to satisfy the most weary deep house heads, but keep an ear out for the old-school flavoured heft of freak ds power of bass, which should get some seriously jacking airtime in the right kind of dance.

matt flanagan has been making music as defekt, ess and tinfoil for the past few years, so who better to put out the debut release on first cut? we decided early on that there was no point in repeating his admittedly fine back catalogue, so matt went off one evening and did a 30-minute live jam on his machines. there was no real plan, but between us, we picked the three best bits, which you now own. then we had to come up with a name. initially, we toyed with the idea of calling it �fekt� but then decided that only a local audience would appreciate the joke and that it wouldn�t travel well. octal step then emerged as the clear favourite. we sealed the deal to release �toner head� over a cup of takeaway coffee on a bench in the stephen�s green cente in dublin. and why is gunter walraff on the other side of this sheet? well, he seems like a cool guy. plus he�s german and has a moustache - what�s there not to like about that?

next cocoon floor bomb! cocoon recordings is back with a bang after the winter break, cranking up the pressure once again. what s more, we re seriously pleased that we ve managed to land johannes volk for the new season. johannes has been making us smile with his productions for more than 12 years and considering his 2006 debut appeared on jeff mills axis label, it s easy to guess which direction his cocoon release is going. there are no dreamy minimal sounds or deep house trips this time round, instead you ll find headstrong techno pumping out of the speakers. tears & walls drives forward relentlessly with its meaty kick and metallic open hi-hats setting the pace. energetic and demanding throughout, johannes volk certainly takes no prisoners! -a little story about time and space- follows in its footsteps although the mood here is notably more detroit, taking us back to productions on cult labels like red planet, metroplex or the axis records sound. volk layers the track with more prominent harmonies and hypnotic arpeggios, giving it a subtle yet highly effective trance touch. the warm analog strings in the middle section underline this emotional impact and make a little story about time and space a guaranteed sunrise song for the upcoming spring and summer season, heartwarming and dance floor friendly in equal measures!

to those familiar with the output of cologne-based imprint firm from back in the early �00s, the name of geiger, alias nass, shall undoubtedly ring a bell. herald of an hedonistic melange of funk-soaked electro pop and guitar-riddled synth music, sitting somewhere close to acts like ween and junior boys, alexander geiger is about to break a eight-year hiatus with the drop of his debut album under the newly-founded moniker of fahrland. a release that both encompasses a healthy dose of the discoid tropes from the firm era but also aspires to split with a segment of it, geared towards exploring further undisclosed fringes of his shape-shifting sound universe, �mixtape vol.1� is the fruit of a decisive move from the sleepless berlin to the peaceful countryside landscapes of fahrland � a lushly forested area near potsdam which you�ll have understood played an essential role in geiger�s longed-for return. the vinyl lp includes a download code.

sanskrit scriptures mention the term vimana as flying vehicles or temples. consequently, the sound of this ancient ufo has been captured into the grooves of this vinyl record. the soundscapes of rukma vimana dig deep into the dirty history of raw and hypnotic industrial techno. nobody said that spiritual journeys are a clean endeavour. a1 marches forward into the dark lands of dirty drums and urges you to follow it, as it�s your duty to dance hard in this life. flip the vinyl and the needle will tickle your subconsciousness. excavating deep tantalizing melodies and dusty basslines, one should not get lost in the palace of this unknown god. closing with a meditative sketch, b2 leaves us puzzled about the vortex of energy we�ve just been through.

the lines you are about read are a laconic introduction to the music of an elusive new musician on antinote. biographical details about him would probably not help comprehend his music and might even seem slightly contradictory with the music itself, as reigi haipa has been produced in reims at least, it would have been much more accommodating if the capital of champagne was located somewhere in-between sheffield and london.

with many writers a theme develops in their works that, over time, reveals color and definition previously unseen, not just a new perspective, but a new understanding. �lofeye� is a concept album and personal testament that philadelphia rapper lojii (fka uhlife) has been piecing together over the last three years, giving only hints with 2015�s no ebola, 2016�s dutti, and 2017�s acclaimed collaborative album due rent with producer swarvy on portland-based imprint fresh selects. in lojii�s own words, �lofeye is about working with limited resources and making the highest quality life out of what the f**k you got. it�s when you�re �lo-fi� by circumstance (not just for aesthetic) but your aim is always higher. in essence, this is an lp about being rooted in the dirt you come from but reaching for the sky above you.�

meditative and off-kilter, dubkasm�s new 12� is, unsurprisingly, completely unlike any other tune out there, and pays tribute to a too-frequently overlooked part of reggae tradition: dub poetry. originating in a collaboration between dubkasm and their long-time friend, norway-dwelling heavyweight bass guitarist, bajan steppa, enter the gates is a discomix built on a tuff bassline, skittering drums and retro synths, and features reflective, courageous lyrics about the enduring power of black liberation movements and consciousness, from gloucester vocalist rider shafique. the b-side contains an upfront instrumental cut, followed, in true dubkasm style, by a collaboration with a musical titan. mad professor�s incredible dub flips the original into a propulsive soundsystem killer, retaining the tune�s heart and spirit, but driving and percussive where the original is deep and soulful. mastered on to 1/2� tape at stardelta studios, and pressed on 180g vinyl.

following the intense sonic exploration of his work with christopher jarman as dot product, adam winchester steps out on his own with a bold new body of work, his first under his own name, that further expands on his ideas about non-conformist sound generation.

following a trio of instantly sold out 45s on polytechnic youth, between 2015 and 2017, the home current finally channels a full length album through this bounteous and blossoming uk imprint for select experimental and diy electronic music.
�another way of falling apart� aims to build a wider audience for singular music adorer, martin jensen, a cosmopolitan copenhagen-born artist whose music follows an emotional route that meanders back ultimately to analogue and electronica inspirations of myriad treasurable kinds. this incursion into lp territory follows a decade or more of jensen s passionate engagement with music as the creative force behind singles on static caravan, and as the co-founder of the label second language (until 2014), for which he was the wings behind the celebrated �music and migration� series in support of �birdlife international�. he has also remixed colleen, dollboy, and ellis island sound.
