a distant shadow of a woman with jet black stringy hair glistened through the nearby shrubbery. was it her, or was i again lost in my own dementia? how in the living world could this be? i sipped on my medicine and fell into a deep sleep. i awoke days later to see her sooty eyeballs rolling over my entire body. her black wings seemed to stretch over a mile wide. they ever so subtly fluttered from the slow wind that was creeping in from the north. i startled when i realized what was happening and sprung up from my chemically induced coma. i grabbed her by the neck as tight as i could, only to realize that i was holding a black birds tail feather in my hand.

la nature malade brings along a brand new album of analog electronics for 2015 from a well known uk producer operating under a new alias, aquariun. eden and after is a 9 track album on a limited hand numbered pro dubbed blood red cassette in an edition of 100 worldwide. crossing styles and opening with the sub aquatic funk of title track side one takes you through banging electro on energy in constitution, the dark dub techno of to the letter of my oath and leaves you disappearing through a black hole on the path of helium rain. on side two a slice of dark, heavy instrumental hip hop gets things started with where is that perception? next we get into some straight 4/4 club techno with cut up drums and bumping baseline of mi dominante before moving through some blissed out detroit vibes on earth looking inwards, aliens talking through fm synthesis on collected stills and finally closing out on a rough as you like tr606 driven electro groover. look out for more to come from aquariun in 2016.

ritual is a collective of djs and producers from malmö and copenhagen. after several years of orchestrating ruthless techno nights, we have decided to turn the sweat and blood left behind on our floors into vinyl. this is the result.

arranged by godin, taurelle the original trakc was written by georg christian lehms, composed by bach and adapted from bach cantata widerstehe doch der sünde bwv 54. here bach’s church cantata for solo voice meets languid gainsbourg & birkin, albeit in german, with exquisite choir and strings. nicolas godin says i wanted songs on contrepoint, to act like poles that hold up a tent. this piece starts with a very strange chord, which was avant garde for its day. bach’s scores are outside any rules, which i wanted to exploit. i also wanted the lyric in german because no one expects german to sound sexy and cool. the main singer is gordon tracks. the other voice is dorothée de koon, a friend of a french artist i know - they both have german blood.

since the turn of the decade token has by and large been an exclusive platform for the music of inigo kennedy, ¥ phase and ctrls. the belgian label has, however, remained on point by putting out formidable productions by rich oddie & ancient methods eschaton project, german powerhouse r¢dhåd and spanish heavy weights oscar mulero and christian wünsch as spherical coordinates, to some intercontinental fare by xhin and go hiyama. token, an iron clad operation continuously manufacturing unyielding techno, has always, deep within its impenetrable shell, had a soft spot for british techno. and following a reissue of mark brooms two, maintaining the glacial release rate of rodz-konez legend makaton, and welcoming surgeon to its fold with the thunderous fixed action pattern 12inch, the belgian label seeks out some fresh uk blood by inviting james shaw, aka sigha, to debut on the label with a stylistically sleek and suitably booming 12inch, our father / a better way of living.

ravage are happy to announce that rising dutch talent, daniel te boekhorst aka induction, will take centre stage as the first artist to release on the label with liturgical hymns, the first in our ravage white series. surrounded by music in his youth and having learned piano at an early age, inductions play things were eventually set aside and replaced by his fathers analogue hardware and synthesizers. it was in the blood. his sound? a heady concoction of electronica that ranges from deep, melodic and groovy to more urgent and harder realms. a fresh face and name for the scene but one that is destined for great things, all starting right here with rws001 - liturgical hymns.

cute heels screamed onto the scene with his debut album on dark entries. the colombian s blend of ebm and minimal synth with driving rhythms electrified interest with juan atkins describing him as -the new blood and spirit for the next step in techno music.- tough words to live up to, but this talented artist has done atkins proud with his excellent five tracker, nepotism ep. measured and thoughtful the ep is packed with eclipsed wave and bold beats. future classics shine from the drop. -nepotism structure-, with its blackened chords and stark chords, is brimming with a primal energy. -madame counsellor- ups the tempo, adding some extra squalor with wretched 303 writhe. cute heels refuses to sit in one genre, electro coming to a head in the shimmering mechanics of -cabaret literal.- -the pulse (sex drive)- closes in a seedy blur of neon lights and showing synthlines. bleak and bold brilliance from bogota.

daniel.t. has been subtly making waves over the past few years as one half of the la duo cosmic kids with releases on labels including throne of blood, let s play house and dfa. a record collector and selector at heart, 2015 has seen him flesh out his solo productions with world-leaning contributions to chit chat s brazilian tinged 12 and american standard s african summer stunner. young adults brings daniel into the fold for his debut tetrachromat mini-lp spanning a sprawling spectrum of sounds, but unified by a signature west-coast sheen. opener mission hill morning stretches its arms in the early am mist, tetrachromat jogs steadily toward the horizon and planetesimal accelerates the mph in the drop top down pch. on the flip, laced takes a smoke break down a dusty dirt road, akoussah sprinkles some sultry spice and the sun & the sky sits back while the sea sips up the last remaining daylight.

for it’s 16th (!!!) release, dixon avenue basement jams continues to bolster it’s local infantry with fresh, new blood, this time with the addition of a young but well-seasoned individual hailing from the hinterland of greater glasgow and going by the name of big miz. if you happen to live within an 8 mile radius of a blue lagoon, the chances are you will have already been acquainted with the bold miz, most likely through the longstanding and legendary clubnight/crew he’s a resident & founding member of: offbeat. the length & breadth of offbeat’s tastes also reflects his flexibility as a producer. tracks presented here, such as “good thing” strike a fine balance between good ol’ motor city funk and chi-town oddities such as vincent floyd’s more obscure cuts on d.m, while the velocity increasing “solange” comes like the result of a three-day theo studio session fuelled by bad speed. his talent for catering to the dance has clearly paid dividends when it comes to his productions, with the nuance and instinctive touch he presents us with on his debut dabj 12” clearly marking him from the start line as an already formidable & stand-out force in the heady and increasingly cramped world of house & techno.

danny moore aka pvre matrix is from a generation of young techno producers out of brooklyn who come at the music without preconcieved notions or boundaries in their approach to production and playing live. he is the epitomy of the slash and burn blitzkrieg attitude of new producers popping up under the jmz everyday. while very interesting to see the scene develop this way, few have executed in such a fashion as pvre matrix has. impeccabily produced without losing its sense of urgency or brutality and clocking in at breakneck speed, pvre matrix is out for blood, and his three track debuts prove as such. while you might not catch danny moore in your local big room anytime soon, he is undeniably a force that is present and will crush you regardless.
