lovely 1990s uk hardcore & original techno revival cuts! shrink wrapped package

after a splendid record on remote earlier this year, frenchman toni be now joins the soul notes family for an excellent 3-track pack.

after what has seemed like 134 years of shame and reluctance of their own release, based on the fact that the unbeat- able thoroughness of the filthy and yet so unintentional live sets of the three fearless brothers schleck^stecker, these old warhorses are back for another round and on the way burning 4 sauna-sweaty, steamy joints into the grooves of the vinyl.

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?

it has been four long years since glissando released the critically acclaimed >with our arms wide open we march towards the burning sea< and the duo finally return this november with a new record >the world without us<. the new material bares glissandos trademark of ethereal voices and tip-toing piano melodies but the overall sound is richer and more expansive. epic swells of strings and guitars sore above the drones and field recordings to create an intense yet fragile noise. this lp is a highly limited deluxe package of just 300 copies, including code for free mp3 download of the full album.

the stone roses were the leaders of the britains late eighties madchester scene, merging pop, dance and indie rock in a seemingly effortless manner. their sound resonated with a number of bands that followed the stone roses in their footsteps: the charlatans uk and happy mondays among others. when released in 1992, turns into stone functioned as a sop to stone roses fans expecting another smash album like their eponymous debut album from 1989. silvertone records released turns into stone as a comprehensive collection of early stone roses material, hits and b-sides of exceptional quality. includes their biggest hit >fools gold<!
pressing on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

the artist formerly known as edward returns to merc for his second release. >burning< burrows a deep distorted bongo led, deep disco march into you head for a day, topped with dramatic stabs keeping it other worldly. on the b-side >counterfeit paradise< highlights the plight of south americas rain forests with a mark e deep house interpretation.

excellent deep / groovin disco infected ... just brilliant

hand stickered white labels feat chicago cassette tape/reel splices! it opens with slamming the box, a hypnotizing, slow burning, excursion to tripped out places reaching over 16 minutes. jack the floor (edit t21) on the flip is a dark synth experiment & whistle on & on gets seductive!

the german band the audience was founded in 2003 in nürnberg and released their first album >celluloid< on the cult independent-label hazelwood in 2007. soon after the five-piece was signed by one of the biggest german booking agencies fkp-scorpio, which sent them on tour throughout europe where they proofed to be one of germanys most incredible and exciting live acts. their current album >hearts< was recorded in a big music hall over the period of one year. the aim was to catch both energy and emotions of an authentic live-on-stage situation. the recordings document the audiences most intense, dynamic and sophisticated moments, without losing their very own feeling for catchy melodies.

continuing on from the massive kon 12 inch released on basic fingers we welcome back our good friend kok. on the a side koko delivers a real uplifting feel-good disco/boogie scorcher that will make you wish for those hot summer parties. stay with me by norman connors is perhaps not his most known track but we will guarantee this bad boy will be the prime time number for many djs as koko really takes this track to another level. soulfulness at its very best! on the b-side burning up by imagination has, since its release almost 30 years ago ripped up dancefloors all over with its piano chord hook and a steady bassline. this mix is an updated version with lots more production details and plenty of koko flavour. its already been tried and tested in the basic finger kitchen with an exceptional result.

london based welshman chamboche returns to the label that launched him with the smoke screen ep. his unquantifiable sound swerves genre classification, hovering around house but with enough musicality to please the hardened disco head. swirling pads and a bubbling bass line set down the groove, while keys fall around horns and vocals to make the lead track a refined, uplifting work out. slowly unfolding, the track is hypnotic and absorbing, showcasing the style of a producer as able to work the mind as the hips. bicep toughen up the drums and work the arpeggio, stripping down the track and bringing the chicago influence higher in the mix. while the original subtly unfolds, their remix demands attention from the outset, building to a climax then recoiling for another bite at the cherry. thinking big, krl ramps up the intensity with a bright, kinetic reworking. aimed squarely at the peak time, he harnesses all of smoke screen’s most propulsive elements to really work the floor. tucked away on the b side is the expansive mind your mind. trademark chamboche percussion is woven around a blissful riff, swelling majestically to round off the ep in slo(w) burning euphoria.

rene pawlowitz aka shed returns to ostgut ton under the new moniker the traveller and delivers the first 12 inch of this new project. under his new guise pawlowitz picks up at his roots and delivers a deep techno record made for the floor. the beats on the a-side >a 100< are fierce, the melodic synth line lifts you up while everything around appears to be burning down. the experimental first track on the b-side >ber< meanders without beats and full of broken chords around that moment of ecstasy without ever reaching a break. on the b-sides second track >bypass< rene says hello to the techno-heroes, rolls out a red carpet and shows them what he has learned. pack your bags and head for the dancefloors.

umek teams up with uto karem for the burning hot >crossing the lines<, backed up with a huge remix by ramon tapia. flip over for more first class musical therapy by marco bailey and ant brooks.

second release in the delsin x-dsr series containing re-issues of personal favourites. m.k.s the mkappella was originally a track on the b-side of the very original version of his huge burning ep on the area 10 label. the mkappella is some original innocent deep sunset house. other side contains the adventurous lost by the 7th plain aka luke slater, taken from his debut album the 4 cornered room way back from 1994, the high days of the uk techno scene, with lot of hints towards the original detroit sound.

raz ohara and his odd orchestra return for their second album for get physical. >ii< is the follow up album to the critically acclaimed self titled raz ohara & the odd orchestra cd that is considered being one of the album highlights in 2008. its a warm, organic collection of avant-garde, open-hearted pop music which positively teems with life, a forest of pleasures and possibilities which youll want to lose yourself in indefinitely.
>ii< is certainly less melancholic than its predecessor – its imbued with good feeling, energised by the rhythms and cadences of summer and the great outdoors - but its not euphoric, there is an underlying note of caution, of trepidation. this emotional mix is what makes the record so powerful, especially when allied to a similarly ambiguous musical mix: which imperceptibly melds folk, classic pop, electro-acoustic experimentation and modernist electronics. 10 beautiful songs plus a special download (code included in the artwork) of the single >miracle< make this album a perfect journey through the winter days.
