whats the point of a concept album when no one hears the concept in it? maybe that it sets a boundary, forcing mr artist to go even deeper into the fewer possibilities left. creativity by limitation and all thatÉ well spare you further theorizing. >fever<, the third longplayer by dutch low end scientist 2562, then, is his disco album: a thorough reinterpretation of underground disco music from the mid seventies to the early eighties, with his own birthyear 1979 as the gravitational point. all based on one simple rule: every single sound, from the smallest background shiver to the most obese sub bass, originates from a disco record Ð no additional synthesizers, drumcomputers or other samplesources involved. disco-edits, italo homages or filtered loops then? hardly. this is genuinely new and retro-free music that respectfully flips its sources so hard even the biggest paradise garage connaisseurs wont recognize what just hit them. or in the words of musical allies martyn and pinch, who independently drew the same conclusion: >sorry, but i dont hear that whole disco story in there. this simply sounds like you.< completely failed as a concept album, then Ð and all the better for it.

pingipung are proud to present >unframe<, the debut album of the young russian duo wols. while self-proclaimed insiders have mainly kept their ears tuned to releases from the uk, a lively dubstep scene has been thriving for years in the russian federation. and so wols bring more to the floor than just a bass whip

the new album, liquorice, from martin stimming wasnt initially planned to be an album. there was an intrinsic need for him to express what was going on in this period of life. relationship problems led to a very punk, off-whack attitude to his producing. with seven tracks done and dusted, he figured the work was more than just a collection of weird shit, it was a whole new music experienceÉ add another 5 months of studio work, he named it liquorice. definitely hard to pigeonhole - call it minimal, stripped back, dub, experimentalÉ we think >electronic free jazz< comes the closestÉ no sign of a typical 4/4 bass drum at all and stimming has incorporated his trademark use of field recordings, from a marble run, a pizza slicer, a trashcan, a coffee machine, and an ice train shuttling past to name a few. the stimming esque percussion, which is even more radical this time, has been thrown in with all these facets in his massive melting pot, coupled with some dark emotions to create this liquorice. >this time i didnt use all the main events a groove normally has<, recalls martin

>patio de juegos<, which translates as >playground<, is a wonderful multi-genre journey through the mind of an artist who is both on top of his game, and on the rise towards the stars. lashings of his ever-present south american heritage infuse with incredibly intricate and perfectly simple house structures that give the whole album its almost >child at play< ethos that is rarely found in electronic music. future club hits such as >wanna be<, with its nod to the historical upbeat lineage of house music, and >all the girls<, with its chugging rhythm, trickling piano loops and erotic vocals sit effortlessly alongside more experimental and jazz inspired tracks such as the explorative >still here<. another fine example is >sun<, with its deep bass line punctuated with the sun-soaked synths and summer high-hats that export listeners away to a warm utopia. guti produces a number of tracks with high profile artists from both within and outside the dj fraternity - a sign of his increasing popularity within electronica, and also his innate ability to collaborate with more mainstream artists.

brimming with fall-esque attitude, guided by voices pop-sensibilities, and drive like jehu / fugazi / hŸsker dŸ style riffing, warm widow channel , the spirit of their influences into one totally kick-ass, brutally lo-fi rock sound - meticulously mastered by bob weston (shellac, mission of burma) at chicago mastering service - warm widow is the project of ex-tsuji giri frontman martin greenwood, and features zak hane of stranger son of wb on bass and lianne steinberg of breaking colts on drums ... info: manchester s warm widow never really intended to make this album Ð well, not in the way that widower presents itself anyway. this was supposed to be the scratchy blueprint for the actual warm widow album, recorded, you know, like proper albums are recorded: in a recording studio perhaps, with an array of appropriate microphones, with an actual producer (or certainly an engineer), and time to allow the band the breathing space to nail it , with additional options to try multiple takes and overdubs - in general, recording with a certain amount of control and ease.

gilles peterson ist ein britischer dj und musiklabel-betreiber. mitte der 1980er-jahre praegte er den begriff acid jazz fuer einen musikstil, der stark vom jazz und funk der 1970er jahre beeinflusst war, und gruendete 1988 zusammen mit eddie piller das label acid jazz. 1990 verlie§ er acid jazz und rief das label talkin loud ins leben, das kuenstler wie courtney pine, mj cole, the young disciples, reprazent, 4hero, incognito, terry callier und galliano unter vertrag nahm. seit 1998 praesentiert er die radiosendung worldwide auf bbc radio 1. zusaetzlich produziert peterson fuer verschiedene radiostationen in 15 laendern, darunter radio multikulti (rbb) und fm4 (orf), eine internationale version der worldwide-show . sein musikalisches spektrum umfasst dub, reggae, jazz, nu jazz, broken beat, house, drum n bass und hip-hop.

in den fu§spuren von kŸnstlern wie david bowie, iggy pop und depeche mode, die einst nach berlin kamen, um die legendŠre dunkle energie der stadt einzufangen, sind nun auch !!! in deutschlands hauptstadt gereist, um eine platte zu produzieren, die einerseits nachdenklich stimmt und andererseits ihr direktestes, um nicht zu sagen: poppigstes album geworden ist. -strange weather, isn-t it?- ist au§erdem ihre strukturierteste platte bislang geworden, angefŸllt mit tiefen, derben grooves in der tradition ihrer 2003er-single -me and giuliani...- oder ihrer hymne -heart of hearts-. gleichzeitig lŠuft da dieser dunkle unterstrom durch die platte, der als kantiger kontrapunkt zur glŠnzenden oberflŠche agiert. kurzum: -strange weather, isn-t it?- ist die perfekte berlin-platte geworden!

kode9s grasp on the throat of bass music in 2010 is almost unparalleled. his trend setting record label, hyperdub, is in its sixth year of viral contagion, hes become a published author on the theory of sound abuse and sonic frequencies being used as weaponry in his book >sonic warfare< and his production work has mutated from an almost simplistic marriage of beats and sine waves into a fusion of dancefloor ebonics and discordant synths!

many reggae aficionados see the concentrated phase of rock steady between 1967 - 1969 as the carribeans most productive era of all time. never before had such sweet melodies, inspiring rhythms and beautiful love lyrics come together. numerous soul hits by the likes of curtis mayfield, the impressions, the supremes all got the bass-driven, jamaican style treatment.

man/machine: viennas elektro guzzi challenge the meaning of >live< in electronic music. bored of laptop sets? with a >classic< setup of guitar, bass and drums elektro guzzi quantize themselves to an unheard level of discipline, tightness and danceability. no computers, no pre-recorded loops, no solos. probably the first time techno is really played live. as sequential as they may sound, they couldnt be more analogue. but however traditional they may look as a band, they certainly do not sound like one. the quest for the ultimate live presentation of techno has come to an end. produced by patrick pulsinger (hercules & love affair, m-plant, cheap), the album is a masterstroke resulting in great dancefloor movers, state of the art analogue recordings and a prime showcase of elektro guzzis incredible creative capabilities. played live with no overdubs, this record breaks down the demarcation line separating man and machine. everything in techno has been done? you aint heard nothing yet. !!! elektro guzzi live at s—nar (barcelona), berghain (berlin), fabric (london), trouw (amsterdam), spring festival (graz), flex (vienna), rote sonne (munich), mellow festival (sofia) and maaaany more

a-free-ka: a kemetic term, from ancient egypt, meaning spirit. being in a-free-ka means no limitations. no boundaries. infinite. as the myth-scientist sun ra said: the only limit is your imagination.

>sidonia< opens, immediately announcing that this wont be merely business as usual. with its groaning sub-bass and flickering percussive flashes, the track echoes the dubby, drifting melancholy of classic warp records-always, in truth, a key influence for cadenza. bells and voices lend an atmosphere of shimmering energy thats carried over into >around the angel< which sails jubilantly forward, propelled by intricate polyrhythms and uplifting female vocals.

the storm is here: the towering thunderheads and piercing sunshine of ambassadors 4 - from amen to z. this fourth installment in the ambassadors compilation series unites a multiplicity of drumnbass styles - high-pressure pop, clouds of old-school jungle, dark cyclones of bass, macro-experiments in climate manipulation. incl. bassface sascha, young ax, simon v, camo, kjell, naibu, concept & shnek, tyler straub, cycom, dan habarnam, paul sg, peyo & grimm, resound, denius, dub tao, hiten, kaleb, nsf, sh1, smote, telmo a, alternate vibes, cold jazz & wezzler und buzz.

exile began his musical career in 2000, releasing drum & bass on labels such as beta and moving shadow, but as the years progressed, his sound started to become more complicated and abstract. this was mostly due to his obsession with the reaktor software, which enabled him to spend much of his time creating new and interesting sounds from scratch. his debut full-length, 2006s pro agonist, saw him add elements of breakcore to his constantly mutating yper-breakbeats, but that gradual change in style is nothing compared to the total departure that hes taken on listening tree. long-term fans may be shocked to know that listening tree is peppered with exiles own vocal tracks, as he tackles issues such as britains buy-now-pay-later culture, and even the dynamic nature of the universe on family galaxy, the first single. >family galaxy< is about the constant process of change that underpins everything, explains exile. its a tale from a thingless world where nothing stays the same. as now shines its shifting shades on then, so our ideas of what we have done and will do continually morph.the result is an eccentric electro-pop album that is just as likely to appeal to fans of hot chip as it is otto von schirach
