repress - already a well-established presence on the outlandish fringes of experimental, alternative and dance music, celebrated israeli duo red axes make a surprise left-turn onto phantasy with a three-track 12inch, sipoor. unsurprisingly, the results are as pleasingly out-there as the occasion requires. following on from last year’s self-released lp, the beach goths, sipoor immediately announces the axes’ uncompromising return to the front and centre of the dancefloor with the raw, provocative bad time story. brazen, brash acid triggers this particular tale, as red axes briskly modulate their way through a ruff, tuff but never less than musical landscape of 303s and 808s. sipoor takes a more gradual approach to building offbeat rave tension, featuring an unknown male using his native tongue to request some kind of house, some kind of techno and some sort of release. his wish (and we hope, yours) is the axes command, as the music goes deep before seamlessly unfolds around a throbbing bassline and a playful, familiar keyboard sample, beckoning feet to the dancefloor and perhaps tongues ever so slightly to cheeks. concluding the 12inch, teroof takes each of red axes signature ingredients - deeply rhythmic ebm-inspired drums, spiralling electronics, unapologetically odd vocal distortions and reconstructs them amid what sounds like the monaco grand prix, as high-velocity motors speed past the soundscape, kicking up some serious dust.

repress - without fullcover - none other than tensnake is the host of phillip lauers album debuts (aptly titled phillips and soon available in all formats including gatefold double vinyl) inauguration party. delivering not one but two remixes and a barrel of laughs, hamburgs happy man smears thick red lipstick on lauers bittersweet trainmann symphony. his franceman mix does exactly what it says on the tin. a long intro gets rouled up into a fierce dancing school contest. speaking of nomen that are omen, youll find the tranceman mix on the flip side going the whole nine yards: marimba magic, hard trance breaks, deked drum rolls and early morning glory moments. its impossible to defang that snake.

third in a five part series, documenting the birth and evolution of soul music. comes on double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.

luca bacchetti s debut album >secret world< is a work almost 15 years in the making. it s also one that required the endlessly touring dj to traverse the world numerous times before an inner call came to return home to italy to record it. having earned a reputation for crafting club cuts, a fact underlined by releases on the world s most recognisable labels, from wagon repair, ovum, mule musiq, all day i dream and crosstown rebels to defected and his own endless imprint, it s a radical sonic departure. but it s one that reflects both his homecoming and the journey to get there. >with this, i entered a new world i’ve never shown before,< he says.

true art is not only the product in itself, but more than that it is also the ephemeral moment in which the artist is possessed by a creative impulse that brings them back to their -nullpunkt-. ideas flow in a merging of creativity and emotion without the artist trying to think... when the artist manages to retain the -nullpunkt- as the frame of reference in his artwork, that is what mohammed understands as true art. the product becomes a hommage to that moment.

the new album from lana del rey on double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.

cologne based producers and dj s stikdorn and mk braun team up for the second installment of their henk label. they created 4 tracks full of analogue hardware vibes ready for the dancefloor. the a1 (platform) is a breakbeat tribute with a haunting melody and some twisted turns. a2 (reval) is a straight looping techno stomper that could go on forever. b1 (atm) takes the floor apart with sharp and crispy noise and acid sounds on a heavy bass drum. b2 (loose it) slows things down bpm-wise but is surely also one to open or close a night in style.

dmx krew + libertine, no introduction needed

the 1972 james brown album back on double vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.

you just can t keep a man like carlton jumel smith down. this time around we get another soulful k.o. from his debut album in the form of -love our love affair-, a mid-tempo groover drawn from that sweet well of southern soul. one of the fortes of carlton s -1634 lexington ave.- lp is that it flows along as an entity but also revels in the strengths of its individual parts. this fourth single brings out another stylistic strain from carlton and cold diamond & mink s repertoire. after the tight intro and the vibraphone licks have set the scene there are twists and turns plus some classy action from jukka eskola on trumpet, did we mention the instrumental on the flip side? this single might be just the thing you needed to jump start the morning or blast in your sunday evening radio show.

originally recorded in 1979 in paris but only released independently in brazil in 1981

echo back marks the first jerome sydenham apotek records release since this dialectic ep in 2017. time flows but jerome sydenham and apothek remain fresh as ever.

the false ricardian, a four track ep, features janne tavi, fatima njai, argy and jerome sydenham, the link that binds. here, a formidable agenda keeps us engaged in a thunderous rapture of sophisticated techno vibrations. the consistency of this deep product never betraysÉ but instead delivers consistently. fearsome!

2019 repress - route 8 is taking a detour to visit his lifelong lover and take a nice acidic bath. 4 tracks: one to set the mood, one to stomp, one to bang & finally one to finish your evening or just for starting the night. ps.: none of these is ‘id26min’ from boiler room, but better.

(double lp, 180 g pressing) this vinyl only when it falls re-issue will mirror the original release, cut over 4 sides and using the original artwork but now pressed on heavyweight 180g vinyl. when it falls is a timelessly classic album from a seminal electronic band and the essential soundtrack to any laidback summer chilling.

psychedelic deep soul of the highest order, symphonic four was a st louis based band (as was the original label zudan). word is the record was recorded in detroit, and the backing band was made up of some members of parliament/funkadelic which would make a lot of sense. a long time spin for deep soul head but deserving of a wider audience and that why we could not resist to pull this one from the now again catalogue, 500 copies only.

it’s been a while for the microtonal camp – but back with a really great double a-sider by duo analog agenda (supdub records).

while being best known for creating deeply immersive live psychoacoustic experiences, the london based pataphysical have allowed us to use periphera , the fruits of their debut studio work, as the label s eighth musical oblation. it would have been an exercise in futility to try and replicate the immediacy of their live performances on this record, but we feel that across these 8 disparate tracks inner worlds have been rendered real. through the careful positioning of field recordings and the creation of soundscapes somewhat reminiscent of heyday mille plateau the group have held fast to a desire to craft involved and captivating synthesis.

the debut album by los coast from austin, texas. limited pressing on transparent vinyl.

alex font has many strings to his bow, not least running the excellent acme label, and here he is on one of his other ventures, third stream. with improvisation placed at the forefront of the creative process, font turns out functional club tracks with curious kinks and moments of intrigue worked into the structure. onda tropical is definitely dj friendly with its insistent percussive framework, but there are interesting diversions, fills and edits peppered throughout. musica moderna (cds tribute) meanwhile rolls on a more consistent groove, with a more organic set of drums pitched right at the heart of a long and winding dj set

in collaboration with present books we are happy to present you ‚kätze‘ - a story accompanied by a soundtrack, both written by yannick labbe, krätze is about all the dirt that is to be found beneath the polished surface of our little lives. the book, which was designed by our boy wonder florian seidel, evolves around a modern man living in circles. he is seemingly unable to confront his faults, so he distracts himself with superficial friendships, looking good on the outside and a lot of medication.&#8232,,,,,,, on the soundtrack yannick boils down some dark italo, some playful weird house, some dirty drums and basslines as well as relentless rhythms to a highly potent 5- tracker. there are some 6am basement rollers on this as well as tracks that can be played to accompany a sunrise at an open air beach stage. yet they all have that certain two-sidedness in common, reflecting the idea of the book in a subtle way. krä,tze is nasty. krätze is dirty. krätze is not easily explained. but a little krätze lives inside all of us.

entitled -delicious depression-, it s a cohesive array of 8 tracks, ranging from deep house, through nu-disco to full frontal balearic. despite the ironic title, tha album offers a colourful adventure full of unforeseen twists. warm, sampled sounds are enriched by melodic synthlines and deeply detailed sound design. this outstanding production level is not surprising at all, considering that sosky is a rbma alumni (new york 2013, under the name en2ak). his vision of house music may look into the past for inspirations, but the results are fresh, effortless and amazingly contemporary.

magnus international returns with a percussive, drum and beat heavy, tripped out set of tribal rhythm tracks in a stunning early danny tenaglia tradition. daniel blackbelt andersen adds some strings and extra soothing drama but the concept for both is clear, new york sound factory early 90s. you wonder what junior vasquez would have played the 2 hours ahead of dropping the latest stevie v? try it out, with cosmic rhythm sessions cosmic jam on steady repeat. hot!

2019 repress! stuttgart based producer detmolt returns to underyourskin records for his second ep, ‘memories’, on the label this year. the ep’s name giving track is a downtempo synth led pleasant fellow accompanying its listener through the different seasons of the year that are reflected by the various changes of chords within the track that still manage to connected each change in harmony. the ep’s second track, ‘madlen’ is also dedicated to the label’s downtempo sound and starts off with an detailed enriched synth before a nodding bass sets in and defines the groove and pace of the track. in the course of the track the catchy synth is loosend and supported by piano chords as well as diverse soundscapes in the same tonality. ‘kaos’ hits off strong with a lead synth that changes within the course of the track and is subbed by different chords in the treble and bass frequencies to spread its atmospheric soundscapes on all possible musical levels. the ep’s last track comes from paul valentin who remixes ‘madlen’. paul’s approach highlights the given synthchords which are worked into dreamy yet fordward going soundscapes that still keep the original’s downtempo vibe but makes you lose your mind higher spheres.

with his last nebulosa ep featured among the records of the year juno section and played by derrick may at boiler room las vegas you would guess apoena would bring us more on that atmosphere. but what retoside ep does is dive back into deeper tracks, closer to house with an oldschool us approach.

having discovered electronic music at the end of the 90’s, thomass grew up going to raves where trance was one of the main styles played at this massive partys. the influence it had on him was planted deeply into his dna and this ep is the interpretation he has these days of the genre. he moved on to different pastures soon after but the style was already in him. thomass now takes the old fashioned elements he still likes and takes them to new directions. fueled by gated chords, dreamy arpeggios, trippy vocals and percussions this tracks are destined to take you back into the past and bring you right back to the present. forget what you learned. trance not trance.

finally, after a being one of the most featured artists on mindcolormusic, bromic put together a selec for a longplayer. manifold influences between acid, idm, sometimes bass or even funky, drawn together in these trax, creating so many different mood shades between hyperactive or happy, energetic and playful acid, things to call horror house appeal like a new kind of music even. a solid statement, but still just a peak on the works of this dude from bergamo, italy. i really enjoyed compiling this one, also had an interesting journey that i hope i can share by releasing this!
