for the second and last ep of contemporary spaces remixes, dynamic reflection welcomes yet another batch of talented producers to the label. just like the first remix ep, it is a mix between household names, and up and comers. first off, it’s perc’s interpretation of glide. the uk based artist, who is known for his use of distortion and aggressiveness, takes it down a notch on this occasion. he has made glide into a echoing and glitchy track that doesn t reach its energy peak until the last couple of minutes. matrixxman takes overwith his biohazard mix of future existence, which contains a tensive synth, confined by a filter that gradually opens,and than closes again, retaining your attention at all times. on the bside, shdw and obscure shape reshaped the hunt to provide the first outright dance floor track of the ep. with its thumping kick and epic pads around the breaks, it’s bound to win crowds over in the club. dutch talent ben buitendijk also remixed future existence, in his own distinctive, hypnotic style. a deep, though energetic track with a very mature sound.

located between absentminded fantasizing and alert awareness the release of blackfoxmusic arises out of the hands of tagträumer² with an obvious regionally derivation: pankow! the berlin based producer and vinyl aficionado who travels the world only with his record bag since the year one, returns after his guest appearance on the debut vinyl of the imprint and presents three irresistible tracks. not less melodic than driving, to flood the dance floor with energy and warmth. acker records label-daddy mollono.bass grabs his buddy marc vogler and contributes a remix á la bonne heure that rounds off the record perfectly.

what can be said about lnrs work it to the bone? another slamming piece of chicago house history brought to us by the dynamic duo of larry thompson and rick lenoir (lnr, larry n rick) of the cult house jam label. this is some straight 1987 heat, real house music for the heads, from the very beginning! work it to the bone does exactly that, works every single part of your body into a frenzy, a cacophony of jacking sparse drum programming with that infamous descending bassline and that dude chanting, asking us to join him c mon let s work! this record is a total classic. period. featured on this official 2016 reissue we have 4 mixes of this monolithic slab of machine funk that originally came out on various pressing between 1987-1989: the vocal mix, the instrumental, lnr clubhouse remix and the lnr underground mix.na sense, this is the complete collection of this cornerstone of chicago house. the full set. all audio has been lifted from rick lenoir s private collection of reel to reel tapes from his basement and remastered accordingly. this reissue has been realised with the full involvement of thompson & lenoir and is 100% legit! dont snooze, this one deserves a spot in any self respecting house heads record bag or dj set, classic material made available again for 2016, house is going on!

having previously worked with zero 7 and nightmares on wax before embarking on a solo career a few years back, mozez (aka soul singer/songwriter osmond wright) is no newcomer. the ray mang-produced run river first appeared on last year s wings full-length, and here makes it to wax for the first time. sitting somewhere between early freeez and odyssey, mang s extended vocal version is something of a soulful, soft-spun disco-funk treat. as we ve come to expect from mang, its musically rich and impeccably played, with the live instrumentation providing a deliciously organic feel. this can be heard more clearly on the excellent flipside instrumental.

re:works is the result of a groundbreaking project that sees the rich catalogue of decca classics being opened to some of the worlds foremost electronic producers, seeking to further establish the common ground between the historic and modern day aspects of musical composition. ranging from the experimental to the more recognisable 4/4 structures of house and techno, re:works elicits the full range of emotion – from the heartbreaking to the ecstatic. francesco tristano takes on one of the most recogniseable piano riffs of all time with his remix of ‘merry christmas mr. laurence, which, after a brief introduction of that seminal loop, descends into deep, dubby house cut punctuated by shimmering keys. patrice baumels remix is an intense techno workout that is in many ways the antithesis of his definitive roar: a non-stop pummeling via clattering percussion and a heavy, pulsing bassline. completing the package, grammy-nominated studio legend martin buttrich delivers a melancholy, minimalistic techno take on saties gnossienne no.4

third release of dancing like quagmire, italian white label (vinyl only) born to make you dance shouting “giggity giggity go”!!! mini-album with five tracks deeply rooted in 20th century russian culture in which neotnas is showing his poetic music style wandering between rough drum patterns, old dusty samples (hard to dig for sure) and hypnotics saxophone melodies. a-side starts with dreamy downtempo intro elin, followed by crispy broken rhythms of colourful tension and closes with breezy and fluffy don’t rush with dubjazz. b-side contains mighty deep house trip morning way, and outro come, where the main character is undoubtedly ivan pona’s magic sax which created an illusory atmosphere over neotnas’s soul beat.

after a run of releases including music from rex club residents d julz and phil weeks, and a beautiful atlantic breakaway with fred p, rex club music brings in the boss of poker flat recordings, the maestro himself, steve bug. a gentleman and a scholar who has been a key figure of the techno scene since its very early days, steve bug is also the mastermind behind a prolific and in demand label. he is a man who is always on point, looking to the future, maintaining the present and drawing on the past to operate in that magical intersection between the different eras of time.indulge in this short course of rexology for proof of his mastery, which is expertly applied with this polished new ep.first up we have ‘what’s happened’, a track that occupies the space between tech house, acid and dub. get ready for some hard stepping on the dance floor when this track is unleashed. then rod goes in hard with two remixes of ‘what’s happened’, upping the ante, increasing the tempo and urgency to create an air of emergency. with ‘remix one’ rod has us on high alert, while ‘remix two’ focuses a little more on the groove and catchy analogue flashes. on the flip we have a night of ‘berlinian rexing’, with its time-lapse atmosphere allowing us to teleport between berlin and paris in a cacophony of whirring synths and uplifting stabs. the track plays on timelessness, creating classic tropes and creating the kind of atmosphere that underpins all of the most unforgettable nights.

secret crunch is a label fresh out of the oven run by fellow vienna-based artists roman rauch and moony me. both musicaly rooted in hiphop, soul, funk and disco and expressing themselves mainly through house music, it was just a matter of time until they first colaborated together. thoughts about releasing their output together through an own label came naturally soon after. the first release of secret crunch is a pure collaboration between them plus two additional remixes – one by gnork and another by medlar & ishmael

insane hyper hybrid combo of wave/house/techno by murray cy of glasgow. the cy stands for -contort yourself- the label he runs which bridges the gaps between lost sounds of the past and contemprary noise makers, this ep displaying the producers take on the sound perfectly. all four tracks move in their own way from mid-tempo heaviness to more peak time fare. this is the rough back alley stuff you ve been warned about!

inga mauer loves trains. -it s a fantastic chance to be nowhere-, she says. from cologne to clone is, in many ways, a celebration of this nomadic sense of existence. -i don t need a home, only a studio-, she confirms. recorded in a period when inga lived between cologne and rotterdam, home to the famed clone records shop (hence the title), the music on this ep is inspired both by the emptiness you suffer in futile non-places such as airports and the chasm you experiment in majestic scenarios as a russian forest. both by solitary travels and first encounters with machines you always wanted to touch like an 808. six tracks constructed with razor-sharp drum-machines, penetrating synth sequences and estranged vocals. raw sounds that capture the type of clairvoyance that one can only feel when in transit, far from the chains of our comfort zones. from cologne to clone is much more than a train journey. it s an introspective voyage to a beautifully warped soul. a reminder that, in fact, sometimes you only need your self-expression to feel at home.

&apos’s music veers between abstract, experimental compositions and more beat driven tracks, all held together by a defined aesthetic of sonic impurities and random patterns thrown up by algorithmic computations. in &apos’s music compositional decisions are not merely reliant on himself but also on a range of processes from constrained randomness to full fledged neural networks. that is to say, the ‘instruments’ he creates have -to a certain extent- a mind of their own. there will always be a dynamic between the musician and something else that triggers, proposes or decides what will happen to the music.it is exactly from this human-machine interaction that &apos extrapolates his musical ideas that are both intricate and detailed while never losing an overall sense of emotional value. his first solo project ‘lichtdrank’ is a selection of four tracks made during his time studying sonology at the hague’s royal conservatory and the time following. it is the third and final installment of bepotel s startuplabel trilogy. previously, he has released music together with walrus and sagat under several musical projects like smaakwaterval and bepotel. the artwork of the lichtdrank ep is based on screenshots from an interactive multiplayer video game where the musical universe of &apos can be explored.

originally released on infarkt records, this great ep gets back to life on atomium. florida boys is a frankfurt/offenbach-based electronic music project by dirk schricker and matthias braun. they have been actively creating music between 1996 and 1998, releasing a couple of tracks on eps and compilations which have been part of the first wave of german underground house music. in 2016 they reanimated their project and are currently working on new music while getting a repress of the much-wanted starship groupies ep.

ethimms second ep when in dark delivers the groups signature tension music with moods oscillating between suicidal heartbreak and conciliatory optimism. in the opening track why (a cover of the rhythm and sound classic), producer elisabeth thimm sets the stage for guest singer veronique to mourn love s loss, while brian gimmel s improvised piano licks hold strong agains the songs relentless bassline. the follow-up track late features lexx s dreamy lyrics gracing a subtle dance foor tune for spaced-out souls. the b side opens with ethimms love for dub. next is a freaked-out meditation on what has been and will be, while the fnal track done slowly creeps towards its peak, refecting on dark days where light may have not been much in sight, but going forward sees optimism, increased resolution, and drive.

both sides evoke the ubiquitous tension between anxiety and gratification inherent to a curious human experience.
driving bass and organic percussion sit within a subtly evolving context, as the tone oscillates between claustrophobia and euphoria. the result is two ultimately uplifting techno tracks, equally relevant on the dance floor as in the hands of the home listener.

kindred spirits boards of canada and teebs make an appearance in dreamy collaboration with odd nosdam s sisters remix ep. throughout, the producers split time between cosmic, slow burning beats and reflective soundscapes littered with intriguing textures and mind-bending samples. analogue sounds are generous and knowingly manipulated. gorgeous samples are deployed, sturdy yet emotional. cymbals explode. when the sun finally breaks through on an overcast day, sisters was very much inspired by that wonderful moment and the longing for it.

poker flat recordings deliver another killer collaboration, this time between berlins youandme and the analog roland orchestra. the result is reflection an ep containing more than its fair share of pure dance-floor moments. the analog roland orchestra is michal matlak, the berliner whose intimate knowledge of dance musics most iconic machines has made him a much-in-demand producer and remixer. teaming up with party starters youandme as well as vocalist black soda, the title track of this release explores deep vibrations, merging 303 basslines, crisp 909 programming and a highly effective vocal. the dub tool reworks the vocals into a more spacey arrangement, adding atmosphere for djs who like to keep their sets stripped back and trippy. the hyenah remix flips the script and develops a deep afro-house inspired cut the man from the caymen islands developing an irresistible groove stretched out over seven and a half minutes. the acid mix gives an opportunity for the guys to get busy working the 303 to its full (un) natural potential, while the morning light mix locks into a cosmic vibe shimmering synths over a smooth, rolling deep house vibe

after his 2012 starpatch release on red rack em s bergerac imprint it seemed seetheroad has retired from music. now he is back - as the very first uk artist in the history of tape hiss - with four twisted pieces halfway between techno and electronica. it’s a kind gesture to the label he gave a hungarian title to the ep. cédrus Út means cedar road, what was his previous location and inspired his artist name at the same time.

lahun is a brand new signing to apollo records. he previously remixed milch from lakker on r&s records. as well as being a skilful musician and producer he is also a handy dj who joins the dots between marvin gaye, innerzone orchestra, theo parrish and jay dilla - all artists you can hear as influences on this debut ep.

jürgen karg’s career in music began in the 1960s as bass player for german jazz legend wolfgang dauner. it was not until the 1970’s that he switched his attention to electronic music, launching himself wholeheartedly into exploring the genre and building up an extensive collection of synthesizers over a five year period. his efforts culminated in “elektronische mythen”, a mighty opus of experimental music which reveals new aspects every time it is played. jürgen karg’s music is deeply serious, as vexing as a jamais vu, yet absolutely beautiful. “elektronische mythen” is an album which fits like a puzzle piece between the first and second soundtracks for a clockwork orange. it’s worth to check it out!

it’s in the depths of the oceans that pierrox finds his inspiration for this ambient music. he uses natural sounds (like whale songs for example) to take us on an abyssal trip between purity and aggression. two talented producers, nutia (german) and shcaa (english) take us back to the surface with their minimal tech-house remix.

the omnibus band was founded by jarda zajpt and petr dikan in 1979 in czechoslovakia. having met at the electronic high school, electronics was their field of expertise. over time, petr dikan constructed several sound devices such as the Šílený fridrich (Šf, crazy frederick) keyboard and the vsd (všude samý dráty/wires everywhere) generator which he operated during the recordings and also at concerts. at that time, heavily influenced by brian eno and robert fripp from the king crimson band, jarda zajpt played the guitars, using all kinds of effects, pre-recorded tapes, and one or more interconnected tape recorders. the first record, “israels”, was produced between 1980 and 1982. in 1985, jarda zajpt swapped a guitar for a keyboard and a new member arrived – pavel zvolenský – who programmed and played the automatic percussions. martin bauer, playing the bass guitar, completed the trio. they have produced a second album, “rhythmus”, in this assembly. remastered from unreleased tape recordings. this is the first release in the framework of the project jupiter 08 – archeology of the slavic electronic sound.

californiabased producer damon bell could not find a more suitable home for his new 12inch than croatian label burek. its his first one since blues for the libyan lp released in 2015. for deepblak, and it sounds as if the time off was well spent. two words that perfectly describe this record are rich and colourful, and the description is equally applicable to all three cuts. stand by me is a synthheavy piece built around the interplay between tracks rougher sounds and big lush pads. on the flipside, life is slightly faster and more direct, with a wonderful guitar part that circles around the main theme throughout the most of the track. similarly mannered, but slightly more intense transatlantic journey? we been here! is the last piece and features an infectious groove with lead synth piercing through layers of delicate arpeggios playing in the background. all in all, it feels good to have damon in the team. we hope youll enjoy this record

rivulet records are continuing their release just where the compilation at the beginning of the year left us. again bringing 4 artists together on one release shifting between dusty, mellow house and some how twisted techno. peonies from russia, who has been releasing tapes on his own label „summer night“ since 1 year, sets the mood for the record with his track „soft light“ which sounds almost like a dim, fading memory of a club night full of classy house records. the rework by ital, the head behind „lovers rock“ from new york, builds up the mood in a complete different, driving and technoid atmosphere. the b-side is the first cooperation between two very old friends, berni from trier and jonas palzer from berlin, both part of portray records. their tracks are playing with the same kind of hauntology as the a—side, building up a sound that is familiar and distant in the same way - referring to old records by boards of canada as well as to the contemporary sound of „house“ at its best meaning.

tom hang is the solo electronic work of lobster theremin label owner jimmy asquith. despite being ridiculously busy either quaking dancefloors across the globe and flowing into the world a continuous catalogue of acclaimed electronic heat, jimmy has found time to follow up his ‘tidy bedroom versions’ release with more original tracks from the heavily dusted harddrive. ‘the new world’ is a sphere where pummelling techno burners teeter on the edge of freedom before winding and convulsing themselves into varying mutant zones that straddle the lines between experimental statement and tightly locked grooves to create a record of pure dystopian dancefloor heat. there is an odd and refreshing unity here within the strict, bare, functional, consuming percussion and the heady, playful, and freeform nature of hang’s melodic grip.

from the disputed border somewhere between lancashire and yorkshire, g..h. claims a no mans land where he is free to decimate distinctions between black metal, grime and concre&#768,te techno by drawing upon an elusive, metaphysical force that’s exclusively common to music rooted in that region, from muslimgauze and autechre thru shackleton and demdike stare. the inarguably mongrel housebound demigod is g.h.’s debut solo album, following the ground ep (2011) and his involvement with the hexed pendle coven project & hate, alongside miles whittaker and andy stott, respectively, between 2003 - 2009.

at 21 years old, mathis ruffing has already managed to craft a signature sound, elegant and mature with a focus on melody and texture. rewardingly diverse, the ep touches on several genres and influences, ranging from cosmic to earthy dancefloor cuts, acid, grime, proper electro, idm and ambient. the common thread on this record is the search for balance between heartfelt melodies on one hand and on the other a form of immediacy, raw and almost industrial. ruffing has no trouble finding this balance and adding five terrific tracks to the banlieue catalogue.

it is very difficult to present david duriez without writing an encyclopedic tome as its influence on the house music in france was decisive. since its inception in 1992, david released over a hundred records under his name, tens under various pseudonyms, mainly on vinyls on the most renowned labels like 2020vision, ovum, systematic, pokerflat, f communication, under the counter, stickman, crosstown rebels, the end, etc .. (the list is long, see discogs.com to be convinced) and as many remixes for some of the greatest artists (think moby, dj sneak, gemini, dj hell, llorca, telex, random factor, johnny fiasco, paul johnson, jori hulkkonen, ralph lawson, random factor, kenny hawkes or mr.c). founder of the label brique rouge and a whole galaxy of other labels, he participated in the creation of internationally recognized labels such as robsoul with phil weeks, freak n chic with dan ghenacia (from apollonia) or rz muzik. at a time when david had federated online the cream of the house producers via a forum (far and long before social networks), ivan smagghe had nicknamed him -the producer of the producers.- , a true house music activist, but most of all david duriez is a devastating dancefloor dj, he did several tours around the world and played in some of the biggest clubs in the world between 1995 and 2010. truly one of the most important players in the french electro scene, david is back on tracks after a few years hyatus. but don t call it a comeback because he has never really gone awol, he has been watching the scene and now he s back in the studio. you can expect a (very) long serie of releases for 2016, you have been warned!
