greetings fellow lovers of abstract truth. how s living in a dystopian now working out for you? here s hoping a new birdscare release can help take the edge off... it s by zu dobson. and who s zu dobson? i honestly wish i could tell you. she approached me at an a.l.f.o.s. gathering of the faithful and gave me a cd of her work with nothing on it but a po address written on it. after corresponding by letter for a while we agreed that -apple knife- and -wisdom of rumi- would be the first release (of hopefullly many). i only met ms. dobson fleetingly and she has no on-line presence so her identity is vague even to me. so next time you re on the dancefloor that young woman dancing next to you could well be zu dobson. fondant regards... andrew weatherall

bleed release a second ep of the year in the form of a third solo outing for label head volte-face, who also records alongside daniel avery as rote. recently featuring on semantica s latest nonnative compilation, you bury me sees volte-face further refining his hypnotic, atmospheric approach to techno. the a1, shirime , is dark and trippy, with a brooding atmosphere throughout. iori s remix on the a2 recontextualises the core elements of the original track with a broken-beat. the b1, you bury me , features a grindingly anthemic synth-line and marries it to a gothic ambience. dead cat on the dinner table rounds off the ep, an unapologetically straightforward beat underpinning some outrageous and unpredictable sounds. early support from dj nobu, svreca, daniel avery, tripeo and etapp kyle.

it’s difficult to describe the feeling when you know you’ve heard something that eclipses the mighty mr bird & greg blackman’s ramrock blue modern soul 12” classic ‘over again’ featuring the now legendary tom moulton remix. but many of you are going to experience that feeling and your feedback is going to reflect that moment when that single musical droplet of universal joyful harmony hits your hippocampus and you dissolve with happiness.

soak by james hadfield, featuring danny linton, is one of the main reasons for the launch of me me me and a record i love so much i have done my first rem ix for the label, explains man power. further remixes from axel boman and bird of paradise cement a stellar third release on the burgeoning me me me imprint.

it s no secret that idle hands is a label built on a foundation of dub. from the earliest releases by pev, kowton and szare through to more recent output from o$vmv$m and christian jay, the influence of bristol s soundsystem heritage looms large in the myriad electronic music threads the label encompasses. sometimes this influence is explicit, other times implied, but the principles of sub heavy, spacious music for both body and mind guide the stylistic arc of the label as a direct result of the label s long time immersion in roots and dub culture.

das zweite album der britisch-norwegischen pop-singer/songwriterin sasha siem wurde von valgeir sigurdsson (sigur ros, feist, björk) in seinen legendären green house studios in island produziert und folgt ihrem letztjährigen debütalbum most of the boys, für das sie von der musikpresse mit acts wie fiona apple, joanna newsom oder andrew bird verglichen wurde. die cd enthält 10 tracks. die lp enthält 5 key-tracks plus 5 exklusive remixes des texanischen elektronikproduzenten rabit.

the return of wasserfall to the workshop brings a bunch of well-informed, beautifully executed & idiosyncratic tunes that represent our man so well. charlie, the opener is kind of oddball, jazzed out, abstract house with a strange charlie parker homage. stoned mumbles murk around ideally tuned rimshots and double bass flecks that cheekily plod about sounding like a stumbling one man band.

april showers bring may flowers, but this april claude vonstroke brings you the rain break. inspired by two different songs from the 80s - (razes classic break for love and oran juice jones the rain), claude has replayed and re-sung all the music from scratch to make a special cover tune of both tracks changed and combined into a surefire dirtybird classic. to quote vonstroke, i kept singing the break for love bassline over and over again in my head but the vocal that always popped in over the top was from the oran juice jones. i cant explain why that happened but i just thought they went together so well that i ran with it.here comes the b is a much weirder affair. built with massive psychedelic effects, a huge kick and almost no hi-hat pattern, this is late night cavemen music at its best. this big release from cvs will have you wishing for a downpour so you can go walking in the rain.

2017 repress! danse club resident lauhaus returns to danse club for his 4th ep incl. a remix from dj honesty. the ep also includes bird up a vinyl only exclusive.

actress is next up for a remix treatment in the next installment of the dj-kicks 12 inch series.

cerca trova londons second release featuring two hypnotic tracks from resident artist daniel and a super cool remix from archie hamilton (moscow records).

after a stirring appearance on the 3rd correspondant compilation, bird of paradise brings his sophomoric contribution to the label in the form of a full length ep, replete with a remix from lauer.

sing like a bird (reprise) is a fresh version of the track originally released last year on peter van hoesen s time to express label, to which shuttle fans will have become familiar with in recent sets. it maintains the original s hazy reverbed flavour, but in the form of a more groove-oriented and psychedelic edit that sidelines much of the original s vocal track in favour of a snake enchanter-like synewave melody, for a less lyrical but equally musical new take. the b-side back here is an older track that shuttle has been holding back for a while, waiting for the right moment to reveal this atmospheric, melancholic and melodic track, in which intricately delayed layers of piano keys progressively unfold through a rich percussive background made of 808 rims, deep bass kicks, heavy toms and jazzy hats and rides.

the third jungle wonz release on trax, again with harry dennis gorgeous vocals. a real bench mark in the house sound of chicago from marshall jefferson.

the ”sound dig series” returns with the same spirit of collaboration and distinctive sound that set it apart from the compilation fray. this time around the familial gathering features, introspective, jay mond, sean bird &wallflower, along for the ride in part 1 of the vinyl version of this series.

after a strong first release contort yourself returns with events at the fatal party which comes over more as a description than a title, brimming with a bubbling sense of tension and fear. hamburg duo fallbeil kick things off in impressive style with a crunchy acid monster which twists and turns followed by two killer proto-techno cuts from legendary french industrial band die form from their 1985 tape hurt. here we find ourselves in a unsettling scenario with metallic voices scowling over clanging machines and guitar feedback in an unhinged way. the mysterious slugbug (l.i.e.s./russian torrent versions) starts the flip with goback, a creeping acidic beast moving unstoppably forward as a reverberating voice ripples throughout. any calm is then shattered by ibm a.k.a. jamal moss whose remix of die form hammers home a tough seven minutes of mangled synths, bubbling acid and thundering drums. a highly recommended, intense journey.

das dritte album des brightoner duos grasscut (andrew philips und marcus o dair) erscheint auf lo recordings, nennt sich *everyone was a bird* und überzeugt mit einer mischung aus electronica, post-rock und songbasierter live-instrumentierung (strings, piano, gitarre, drums) als die wohl organischte und eindringlichste arbeit des duos bislang. die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive downloadcode.

some facts about duncan gray... he is a multi-instrumentalist tune smith... he has a label called tici taci... he was, along with our kid, one half of the criminally under-rated machine funk duo the sons of slough who produced an album of elastic electro (milk, milk, lemonade) and invented electro-bingo (two fat ladies... aux 88). he has recorded a cover version of robert calverts (ex-hawkwind) *lord of the hornets*... he has played space guitar on a number of my remixes (we like to call his sound pink wray). he has given me 4 tracks of low-slung sleazey loveliness to release on bird scarer...
andrew weatherall : march 2015

die neue ep von wolfgang lohr ist ein absoluter -lohrwurm-. bezeichnend sind die groovigen drums, das retro e-piano der 70iger und housige vocals in - free as a bird . mit -tabula rasa- geht es steil nach vorn, typisch treibend für den dancefloor. remixe kommen von bebetta (berlin) und rich vom dorf, die sehr schöne und abwechslungsreiche tracks produziert haben. kurzum: eine starke platte für den club!

the bird and white noise invites to join the travels, and in its long arches and bridges it can easily be listened to as a whole. while the opener or eskimono feature the rather lyrical side of the duo, tracks like land ab neu or chitin set more punchy priorities to a heavy bass and 808 drums. chitin is a late climax of the al- bum, building up for minutes to a massive groove in an insect-like, abstract sound world, leaving just enough space for romantic cello lines to break through in the middle. the record has been released exclusively in japan for the duos tour in april 2014 via pingipungs partner label nightcruising in kyoto. pingipung now releases the lp version and the cd worldwide.

karma kid, aka sam knowles, is a self-taught, 19-year-old producer who will release his new single bird of prey on future classic. bird of prey is the title track from the forthcoming ep, bird of prey. karma kid is one of the freshest faces in the uk bass scene. the vinyl ep includes a download code.

drawing from his inspirations like never before, urban animal is claude vonstrokes most personal lp to date. naturally this remix package has been curated with the same amount of passion and features some of the california birdmans favourite producers. solomon (diynamic) and dixon (innersions) - old friends and kindred bolster the original message of the album with clarity and creativity!

first they had a feather fight. then they did whats known in the industry as the gettup and proceeded to tear a hole into 2013. now san fran / bristols finest dynamic duo return with two more beastly jams.

weve always thought catz n dogz are well mannered gentlemen. here they prove it with their ghetto-minded twist on the most important gesture a man can make ladies first

fresh from supporting claude vonstroke on the massive 25 date north american urban animal tour, j.phlip, has finally stolen a moment to complete her latest and much anticipated release. her last appearance on dirtybird called *coefficient*, found the girl from illinois flexing her european techno muscles and adding the likes of surgeon & dave clarke to her rapidly swelling fanbase. her incredible dj skills on the road have been catching everyone’s attention and she is currently prepping to go back on the road with vonstroke for the europe leg of his tour.

kill frenzy, our belgian booty-loving jean-claude van damme look-alike returns with his latest ode to the female form. it never ceases to amaze us that the crew member with the tightest pants consistently turns in some of nastiest ghetto funk.

seems bristol may not be the only bass-built uk city to spawn true dirtybird talent. midway up the little island the city of birmingham is boiling its bins and splitting its subs with the sounds of hannah wants and chris lorenzo.

art department presents martina topley bird featuring mark lanegan & warpaint crystalised is a re-imagining of the xxs modern classic of the same name. the original down-tempo version featured on the 12inch are remixes from directors cut aka bona-fide house legend frankie knuckles and eric kupper, french luminary agoria and close label associate deniz kurtel.

fleetwood mac is a band with many faces. in contrast to their poppy sound of the 70s, fleetwood mac actually started out in the sixties as a psychedelic blues band under guitarist peter greens lead.
pious bird of good omen was originally released in 1969 as a compilation of the bands bluesy roots: their first four uk singles and their b-sides and two tracks by bluesman eddie boyd with fleetwood mac backing. the albums sound is laidback, down & very dirty, featuring scorching cover versions of little willie johns >need your love so bad< and robert johnsons >i believe my time aint long<. the b-side features the international hit single >albatross< and peter greens composition >black magic woman<, the latter being popularized by santanas version in 1970. this album is a must-have for blues fans. anyone interested in the roots of fleetwood mac might discover they are essentially a totally different band than one might think.

dood, the second single from claude vonstrokes forthcoming album, urban animal. dood is inherently dirtybird and the one youve been waiting for if you were expecting something nasty from the project. the heart-squeezing booty-bass-line smacks instantly, while the rumbling drawl of the stoned vocal perfectly encapsulates vonstrokes witty spirit. the track is an homage to the time claude spent in los angeles during the production of the album and really captures the fun, dark edge of that sprawaling so-cal metropolis.

> cant wait<,is reminiscent of some of vonstrokes deeper classics while also pushing further into new territory. a sense of restraint and release play games throughout this melancholy tune with a fat bassline locking down the groove. >cant wait< has fleeting moments of euphoria that are both surprising and uplifting especially for a summer open air crowd. coming up strong on the b-side, >the clapping track< shows us the fun side of vonstroke where he cuts apart 16 claps and then brings them back together - building up to a standing ovation as a resonate organ sounds. this house anthem has already been destroying the dirtybird ibiza residency and summer festival circuit as well.

with what looks like a summer heatwave on the horizon, it seems right to call on dirtybirds european extension to deliver a sundrenched dance floor stormer to see in the new season. the two track love ep sees catz n dogz join forces with the everinnovative kink, a pairing that has proved striking in the past year after kinks beautiful follow the step release on the polish duos label, pets recordings.

ms. smooth socal soul meets mr. nocal dirtybird swagger and they have a baby together. that baby is justin jay and at 19 years old he is already making his 3rd appearance on dirtybird. i have a feeling this is justin jays breakout record. the a-side static is at 119 bpm and will sweep you up then rip your pants off. but even when you get hit with the massive bassline, an old school anchor stays intact. waves b-side has a classic deep dirtybird feeling, with tuned 808s and a surprising melodic element showing off the sweeter side of this up and coming young gun. justin jay has more potential than anyone i have heard in a while and if he continues to play like he has been lately, he has a long dj career ahead of him as well.

all us here down on bird scarer farm have been fans of the work of mr. craig bratley for some time, so it is with pleasure unbound that i announce the release of bird scarer 4.manufactured in a town just outside leeds and tested on humans for the first time in a tent just outside skipton. ladies and gentlemen... boys and girls. obsession by craig bratley. a sleazy new-beat erotic monster of a tune channeling mr. delgado and mr. gorl (thats d.a.f. to the un-initiated) in the original version and slo-mod even more with added live bass (andy baxter) and guitar (courtesy of ex sons of slough member mr. duncan gray) via the asphodells mix.

early bird is a collaboration of the swiss dj and producer diego hostettler (well-known for his huge techno-productions on kanzleramt, damage, k20, u-turn etc.) and ray kajioka. a fresh and juicy package of two driving techno tracks by diego & ray and two fantastic remixes by joel mull and sterac alias steve rachmad.

i had dinner with breach in london and he told me: hey, i have a track that is really dirtybird. i would put it out but its really sounding right for you guys. i took this with a grain of salt but then i heard lets get hot and i found out he was right. it has got the swagger and the sound. it makes girls grind their asses into boys crotches on the dancefloor. perfect. signed. so i then asked him to make something even more sexual, thinking it would be ages before i got something back. 10 days later the a-side came back to me as a 2 minute clip while i was on the train to warehouse project in manchester. i liked it so much that i edited it on the train to stretch it out to 5 minute. as expected, it slayed the room and the final version breach has delivered is one of the best records of the year in my opinion. with the simple title of jack you can see for yourself when you play it. this is the real deal. love, vonstroke
