if you re going to beat em down, you need the right tools. on the label s second release, grimy trax has given you a couple hammers. the a-side, dejay cease s the fixer is straight chicago. we re talking banging 909 funk that might be found buried on a particularly unhinged ron hardy mix. a simple bass line and two notes of acid are all it takes to make the floor go wild. this is functional heat with enough atmosphere to engage the mind, body and soul. on the b-side, rising chicago son boogienite proves he s earned the hype. boy, ok is an instant classic thanks to some recognizable disco strings and a funky escalator of a bassline. the producer uses a trippy, rubberband synth which eventually turns into rhythmic, teasing vocal. the mixdown is ridiculous, especially as the lengthy track passes the halfway mark. boogie brings the bassline in and out in between beautiful ambient rhodes and a call and response male and female vocal. those strings hit again and you feel no pain.

not the usual bio rhythm release... as far as they have any usual releases at all. recently the label accidentally came across this lost treasure by midnightopera (workshop) and signed in at the spot. produced in 2007, five is an epic 12 minute journey straight into downtempo/deephouse walhalla, making your sunday morning seem to last forever. the 2010 rework is delivered by bad boy roger 23, diving into even deeper territories and adding some psychedelic elements to make it safely through the other side and back. sunrise over riegelsberg... dont sleep! translucent red coloured / black marbled copies, vinyl only.

people must jam just keep on bringing the heat! one of new zealands best exports, apart from lamb - a dj and producer of considerable talents, whose musical output has graced a slew of respected outlets, from the uber cool unthank to rush hour, burek, dopeness galore & boogie bash, as well as his own fantastic hot shots imprint for his pmj debut, we have a five track set of rough and ready workouts, the echoes of thirty odd years of black us dance music held up with raw drum machine scaffolding. from smoked-out b boy jams to lo-fi sample joints - loose and alive on the floor on the flip lay far stirs up some sonic trouble with a bottom heavy rewire of the title track, while ugly drums bring some serious shine to linoleum magnets, with a mix that is heavy on immersive mood and vibe. limited to 300 copies.

without a doubt, manfredi romano (aka dj tennis) is a busy man. co-founder and partner of life and death, a dj with a full schedule and someone who still always has his fingers (and mind) in multiple projects and multiple places at the same time. how he juggles it (or when he sleeps) are questions best not pondered. one thing those who know him well have surely noticed is that he does it all while constantly on the move. unfazed by the constant whirl of cities that pass him by, he somehow manages to remain focused throughout. no matter where he goes, he somehow always manages to remain local.

tori amos gilt als rätselhaft, bizarr und voller leidenschaft. in den letzten 20 jahren ist sie zur kultfigur aufgestiegen und hat den ruf erlangt, eine der versiertesten künstlerinnen und songschreiberinnen zu sein. jetzt erscheint ihr 14. studioalbum unrepentant geraldines. nach einer serie mehr klassisch inspirierter und innovativer musikalischer ausflüge in den letzten fünf jahren, offenbart unrepentant geraldines die rückkehr zu ihrer ursprünglichen identität als schöpferin zeitgenössischer songs von außergewöhnlicher schönheit. diese werden mit großartigem bandsound zum leben erweckt und bringen tori amos genau zu dem singer/songwirter pop zurück, mit dem sie mehr als 12 mio alben verkauft hat und weltweite charterfolge feiern konnte. es ist auf gewisse weise eines der spannendsten comebacks des jahres - wenn tori amos auch nicht wirklich fort war, so hat sie doch andere pfade beschritten - und man wird davon beeindruckt, wie gut dieses neue popalbum klingt

back in 2009, exactly five marches ago, culprit began its journey. 5 years of existence is a significant mark for a label and worthy of some introspection. with its new release, the los angeles­based label celebrates one of its most recognisable elements, the standard hotel rooftop, the site of the labels signature parties for the past 6 years: its been more that just a location – the rooftop has become the essential ingredient of culprits philosophy. inspiring a successful three-part compilation series, above the city, which has united some of the best young production talent around, the series has showcased a particular brand of warm summer­time sound, modern yet timeless. each remix is a culprit debut for all of the remixers. yet, each of them is part of the extended group of friends of the label, a like­minded tight­knit collective
