for its second release, the barcelona-based independent label venom recordings follows its pioneering path into new and forward-thinking techno soundwaves. the ep features two original tracks signed by dasein, as well as two remixes from vii circle and memorial home. in their original versions, “prometheus” and “zodiac” reflect the polish duo’s distinctive signature: a blend of obscure-minded groove with cinematic melodies. both tracks are defined by the layering of deep and immersive sounds, where the combination of restless, punctilious basslines and beats with pulsating synths reverb drops climax into a pure hypnotic and spacey atmosphere. for their interpretation, vii circle and memorial home magnify the minimal and cosmic nature of the originals, crafting an ambient-like wavy tempo that traverse a dark flavoured sonic landscape with a strong emotional aura. four pieces of electronic mastery which offer a captivating journey, to be savoured in the intimacy of its own soul or to be shared with nightclubbing fellows.

inter gritty follows his debut album up with another ep, going down a slightly more abstract path here. void offers plenty of depth with warm pads and subtle breaks, while blurred edges takes your mind for a spin with its cycles of bleeps and ever changing bass line. on the b-side, cure for madness is a gradually unfolding, moody techno builder with crisp beats and lush drones.

baertaub’s newest release wolke welcomes you with bazalt, a very tight and sharply shaped minimal techno track designed to awake your senses one by one from head to toe with small noisey cuts and bits that show their faces at certain times to draw a sonic geometrical map. next up is a relatively darker track rather than rain which again features those alien bits and is enriched with an unexpected and grande synth melody that somehow fits perfectly with the dark mood and alienating sound of the track. b side opens with the ztrl remix of bazalt which focuses on that witty geometrical face of the track and lifts it to an upper level with slowly building beats and hypnotizing loops. the ep closes off with the title track, wolke, which follows a very interesting trajectory: a tense sounding chord line is softened by a groovy bass and dubby touches and percussive samples which in the end provides an unexpectedly feel good ending to a positively minimal ep.

it seemed like neo ouija, a norfolk based idm imprint, had closed up shop. four years of silence suggested that founder lee norris, aka metamatics, had decided to call it a day. but looks can be deceiving. 2016 saw the boss release a cd album of fluid acid, squelching electro and heartfelt electronics. shipwrec are now bringing four choice cuts from bodypop to the vinyl faithful. proudly sitting on the difficult to define shelf, norris seamlessly shifts from frigid winter moods to warming autumnal sunshine. old-school sounds are rewired, softened by delicate keys and steady beats. machine music morphs into organic matter. acid coils, echoed bleeps and clicks grow and blossom into vivid audio vistas with metamatics, once again, proving his musical mastery

private eyes, a duo made up of interstellar funk and jeroen, two storied members of amsterdams underground electronic music community. 500, vinyl only. tip! their safe trip debut consists of two analogue-heavy electronic workouts that tend towards the atmospheric. a-side -mirror image- is spacey and melodious, with an italo-disco inspired arpeggio bassline underpinning galactic chords and memorable piano lines. it s a collection of complimentary analogue elements tweaked for maximum late night enjoyment. on the flip you’ll find -anasazi-, an altogether deeper, more hypnotic affair. its distinctive rhythm comes not from bold drum machine beats, but rather the rising and falling of intricate, micro-house style melodies and looped electronics. it feels like it was influenced by the aural textures of dub techno, the phase-based minimalism of steve reich, and the deep space ethos of early 90s european ambient music.

brazillian-born daniela caldellas returns to hotflush recordings with misantropicalia, a three track ep, with each one showing different facets of her influences, further enriching her identity as terr. picking up where last aprils burn the past ep left off, terr continues to develop what is becoming her retro-futurist signature. the unmistakable footprint of electro, as well as a palpable nostalgia for the early 80s, is present throughout. the title track perhaps even betrays a whiff of italo or hi-nrg with its moroder-esque bass and silky guitar licks, before moving into pure body-popping, linoleum dancefloor territory on the b-side. outrun is an invitation to do the robot worm best heard on a portable ghetto blaster, while dont look around rounds off the 12inch in galvanizing style with hints of electroclash in fractured, fleeting vocals and beats of the fat variety. misantropicalia shows terr with her influences on her sleeve, and her gaze fixed firmly forwards

zweieinhalb jahre nach rhondas debütalbum -raw love- erscheint am 27.01.2017 der nachfolger -wire- auf pias germany. das quintett hat seine mischung aus groovigen beats, lässigem soul mit sixties-vibe und perlenden melodien verfeinert, die punk-wurzeln aber keinesfalls vergessen. so klingt -wire- dann auch teils cineastisch und deutlich düsterer als der vorgänger, was nicht zuletzt an der beteiligung des deutschen filmorchesters babelsberg bei einigen songs liegt! die zusammenarbeit begann im november letzten jahres, als rhonda ein angebot bekam, mit dem filmorchester ein konzert in potsdam zu spielen, welches prompt ausverkauft war! schon dort probierte man einige der neuen songs aus, und es wurde allen klar, diese stücke sollten genau in dieser besetzung für das neue album eingespielt werden.
die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive album-cd.

julian stetter might be best known as one half of the electronic pop duo vimes, but he is no stranger to the cologne club scene. his debut ep insides stems from a long history of djing and organising underground parties across the city. a resident dj and collaborator at colognes famed jackwho club, it was these surroundings that drove stetter to dive deep into producing. his first solo project is now set to be released on the label pnn. it features three tracks plus a remix by beyou. stetters sound is polished and the precise production of each three tracks make this ep feel far from debut. emily, the main track of the single, draws you in on shimmering waves that rise and break into a deeper and spacier sound. warm beats are interjected with random snippets of whale song. listening to emily feels like receiving a welcome hug at an after party.

enoq ist ein mc aus berlins süden. früher war er produzent, mochte es aber nicht, wenn die mcs über seine beats rappten. also fing er selber an reime über beats zu packen und das mit ende zwanzig. spaetzuender. zwischen dem traum eines hartz4ers und features für audio88 & yassin hat er die letzten jahre an seinem eigenen output gearbeitet. nach einer free ep 2016 steht anfang 2017 sein debütalbum auf dem plan bei jakarta records.

der zweite teil der “haul & pull up”-ep-trilogie, die ihre vollendung mit dem album “haul & pull up” im april 2017 finden soll, erscheint - wie auch dessen vorgänger - als limitierte 12” mit vollfarbcover und banderole. das vinyl des münchener dj- und produzenten-duos enthält drei vielgestaltige, mit prominenten mitstreitern eingespielte clubtracks, die zwischen grime, dancehall, dub und techno lästige genrebegrenzungen verwischen und mit gut getimtem groove zum subsonischen bassinferno ansetzen. den auftakt macht das stück “goodbye”. bei der kollaboration mit dem noise-rap-king gonjasufi handelt es sich um ein außerordentlich dunkel gefärbtes acid-drone, das auf gitarrenwänden und lärmenden drums reitet. “pop off” setzt über footwork-beats und zeitlupen-bässen die vokalakrobatik des langjährigen schlachthofbronx-mitstreiters doubla k in szene. deutlich sportlicher geht es auf dem mit warrior queen realisierten track “u mad” zu, der mit mindestens 160 bpm die gelüste der uptempo-headbanger unter uns befriedigt.

italian roberto clementi has really struck a chord in the hearts of northerners, with releases on scottish soma, danish echocord colour and swedish kontra-musik. perhaps it’s his ability to create evolving and often emotional melodic landscapes over raw, punchy beats that’s especially appreciated north of the wall. this is very much true for true rotary recordings, in any case, bringing roberto clementi in for the label’s second release. ‘to balance a tide’ is perfectly set in the true rotary recordings universe, combining analogue warmth with genuine musicality. there’s no question roberto clementi has soul and has willingly poured some of it into this release, the music has a considerable thickness to it that’s very pleasing to the ear, yet it’s still exceptionally artful. clementi’s soul seems to be an ancient one, given the timelessness of his tracks – old svek releases come to mind but with an added futuristic twist. this is music for dancing and music for dreaming, all in one package. true rotary recordings is run by joel alter and ena cosovic. stemming from a longstanding mutual appreciation for the combination raw techno with more seductive sounds, the label is a natural development of joel’s and ena’s musical and personal partnership. true rotary recordings represents their mutual musical vision and vibe that they love. keeping it raw and genuine.

an italian-spanish connection is always a good thing. the sort of sensual and mediterranean emotions that carlo and black loops can deliver, is a skill that has been taken far on this new ep. the dichotomy can prove difficult to square sometimes, particularly when the guys have different paths in their sound. but the mix is rich here. the intermission ep is a packed full of soul samples, warm pads, and great solid beats wrapped up as a soulful declaration. their massive love for music really shines through in this ep.

bratha is the name of the berlin based collaboration of matt nowak aka no mad ronin and the analogue cops aka lucretio and marieu. their releases on their own label bratha, on voitax and on restoration have quickly sold out without any mainstream promotion. topless dancers is their debut e.p. on matt nowaks imprint zaijenroots. as usual, this vinyl only release recorded at the restoration headquarters and mastered at dubplates & mastering, combines refined samples and quotes with extremely solid, pumpin beats and fat basslines. the grooves move smoothly from the metronomic dance attitude with a romanian touch topless dancers of the title track, to the wobbling estate, undergoing to the suspended, melancholic fluctuations of space boogie and the slow discoidish no mad ronins death. this pumping ep for sure fills every dancefloor with a deep and smooth vibe of real underground dancemusic made in berlin.

with previous releases on labels such as chronocircle and tom trago’s voyage direct, magnesii delivers a playful blend of house, electro and tropicana for raw tools. the title track, fata oasa is a melodic, lo-fi delight, full of exotic flavours, whilst building ultrabot shifts to a different spectrum of sounds, with chunky basslines and heart-warming pads. on the flip side, euphoric 660, is a haunting house jam with low-pitched vocal samples and sharp percussions. the b-side gets a special 909-led muscle boost by antenna, known for his dark, but emotional sound, which has been embraced by labels such as pinkman, clone and beats in space.

the electronic based pop group, shari vari, founded by helena ratka and sophia kennedy, is about to release its first ep, life should be a holiday, of 5 pieces produced and recorded by the duo under broke and alcoholic circumstances. each piece deals with the traditional forms of song writing by ignoring them – the rules and structures. combining psychedelic lyrics and chords with dark electronic sounds, the beats are weird and stubborn: a teenage crush on a white cat while drowning in a pool. you’ll never want to go to work again: too many psychos in one streetcar are just too hard to handle on an empty stomach. look forward to plunge into the world of shari vari, so hit the booze and run! (to the concert)

for his latest release, dirt crew and quintessentials favorite ponty mython has linked up with washington, dc-based imprint better listen for a five track package of globally inspired groovers. the house for sale ep maintains the sample-based production aesthetic of better listen s debut record, and draws heavily from rare african funk and disco sources. the vilnius-based producer s trademark eclecticism is injected throughout the record, with the a-side leaning more towards wonky, left-field house cuts and the flip hosting more disco-like arrangements. dj support sleazy beats recordings mike w.

following 2014 s well received album for third ear under his :brownstudy alias, life well lived , jason hogans steps away from the mic to focus on an lp of flawless instrumentals. returning to production under his own name for the first time since carl craig s planet e label released his album peter and the rooster in 1998, the age of scrap belies its title to instead deliver a forward thinking record rooted in classic detroit, fused with futurist sonics and dope beats. hogans seamlessly combines strains of house, jazz and hip hop, as well as the futurist bass pioneered by the likes of la s brainfeeder collective, throughout seven perfectly formed musical excursions. tip.

a1 --aqua lifeforms- is perhaps the least intense cut on the record, a sort of a slow grower which builds up momentum by layering sounds and pads. a2 -body mover- is exactly what the title tells you. crunchy peak time tune for the dance floor, with shuffling broken beats wrapping around deep chords that hint what s happening on the flip side. b1 -doorway to her- is a nod to the classic deep techno chord-ish approach. well, sort of. the song lets you think that until the first curveball just before the half of the track. after that, it s just deeper than deep. b2 -pulsing hearts- is another well-crafted dance floor cut. the track moves from deep meditative vibe to subtle acid tripping, just to be finished with a proper bass workout. overall, we couldn t think of a better way to mark the 10th barba release.

out with old, in with the bold… pets prepare us for a fresh new year start with an early-ears peak at what they have in store for 2017. it starts right here with a techno maestro who – thanks to a deep stash of thoroughbred beats on soma, hypercolour, echocord and kontra – shouldnt require much of an introduction: roberto clementi.
