hedonism in its purest form means nothing but adjusting one’s life and ambition towards pleasure and joy as well as the prevention of pain and sorrow. following that concept, wice’s first ep takes the listener along on a journey of extremes: persistently strolling between sensual desire, ecstasy and lust as well as the deepest abysses of human sensitivities.

2017 repress in regular sleeve.

initial listens to inre rymden (swedish for inner space) reveal it to be a curious combination of slow-motion house music and salubrious new age funk. in this case, first impressions are accurate, and they should intrigue you enough to dive deeper into the paradisiacal vistas tommy awards paint here. the opening track prometheus introduces that feeling of sundown deliquescence that very few musicians can summon, as it locks into a laid-back groove that induces utmost serenity, buoyed by sublimely mellow guitar vibes that should make fans of manuel gšttsching s ashra and phil manzanera s solo output spring to attention. draget conjures the sort of exquisite elegance and preternatural chill last heard on roxy musics 1982 lp avalon but somehow its even more blissed out than that boudoir classic. and so it goes for most of inre rymden: among the six tracks, only rexy hints at tension, courtesy of a bass line that sounds like it should score a prisoners walk to the electric chair. but thats tempered by guitar sighs of radiant melancholy, not unlike those lofted by popol vuh s daniel fichelscher. even when inre rymden gets relatively uptempo, as on hans logan, it still glides like gilded, glazed, balearic house jams, urged on by subliminal bongos and dappled with pastel guitar shimmers far off on the horizon. music is love and love is our music, runs tommy awards slogan (a sentiment beautifully echoed by david crosby on his revered 1971 album if i could only remember my name), but one could also argue that it is medicine a balmy ear massage that spreads healing frissons to all areas of your body and mind. tommy awards continue their miraculous act as scandinavians channeling the tropics with stunning audio verisimilitude.

paulino vieira, bana, and their legendary troupe, voz de cabo verde, made lisbon the headquarters spearheading the musical revolution taking place within cape verdean emigre communities across europe in the 1980s. musicians from across the diaspora would eagerly travel to the portuguese capital to record. but in smaller pockets, second-generation krioulu musicians were independently contributing to one of the most lush periods of cultural innovation by immigrants in europe. in 1986, a group of nine teenagers — antonio monteiro, ambrosio gomes, emilio borges, fefa cabral, to pereira, pedro varela, celeste monteiro, clarisse, germano shares — formed the largely unknown, often overlooked, but consistently brilliant band, pilon. combining traditional funana rhythms and the hybrid colazouk style with psychedelic synth work and rugged guitar ostinatos, pilon refined their sound for years until releasing these recordings as part of their debut album, tradicao, in 1993, with a tight-knit unit of just five remaining members. the band is still a popular mainstay for parties in the cape verdean circles of frankfurt, paris, lyon, marseille, rotterdam, and geneva.

new years deal - a1 - luc marianni - six synthetic suites (anno stamm remix) berlin producer anstam’s remix of six synthetic suites is quite a trip. the producer has crafted a dubbed-out version, almost sub aquatic in its sound design, structured around a murky but driving techno beat on which he layers marianni’s sounds. exotic instruments, unusual timbres, daring melodies and even slapped bass: the contrast between these sounds and stamm’s grayscale groove is powerful. a2 vril - synthetic suite giegling artist vril uses samples from marianni’s six synthetic suites released in 1986 to produce this lovely slab of dub techno. carefully crafted, this track is all about soft edges, with a kind of blurry and hazy vibe that permeates it. a sense of motion is conveyed by the sparse but efficient rhythmic section, with chords and melodic elements giving the impression of floating. with much more contrast and complexity than it might seem at first listen, this is beyond your usual dub techno cut. b1 luc marianni - six synthetic suites (margaret dygas remix) also based in berlin, margaret dygas’ own remix of six synthetic suites is a deconstructed affair, built around a half step groove, ready to be used creatively in dj sets. somewhere between an ambient excursion and a more rhythmic jam, the producer uses a sparse palette of hallucinogenic, dizzying sounds with a dash of eerie darkness that gives this version a melancholic, unsettling nature. words by edouard isar.

paul blackford returns to cpu this time donning a 7inch downtempo tip. light years vinyl takes 2 of the highlights from the accompanying lp, all of which demonstrate his versatility in expressing his hip hop and funk influences from an electronic music perspective. on first pass you might think you are listening to nightmares on wax, but without the heavy sampling as blackford favours creating his sounds from scratch. comparisons to photeks hidden camera can be made in terms of atmosphere but keeping things within a slower trip hop framework. light years is for chilling out, but theres a strong temptation to mix hip-hop vocals over the top due to the lps solid instrumental foundations.

bleu blanc house is hardrock striker & signal st. bleu blanc house is throwing up parties all over paris but is also a house music storm trooper. for their first release, we got the chance to get 2 amazing monstruous tracks taken straight from the basement from one of the most original french producer signal st who teamed up with the legendary skylax label boss hardrock striker !

time waits for no man, but venerable new york emcee and producer roc marci remains a rare exception to the rule. enchanting listeners with his dexterous lyricism, methodically soulful beats, and steely persona on releases like 2010 s critically-acclaimed marcberg, and his revered 2012 effort, reloaded, the pride of hempstead, long island emerges from the shadows after a three-year hiatus with the equally spellbinding rosebudd s revenge. this is the rapper s fourth studio album. aside from appearances on landmark releases, including de la soul s grammy-nominated and the anonymous nobody, and ka s days with dr. yen lo, roc marci s presence has been scarce, making rosebudd s revenge one of the more anticipated hip-hop releases of 2017.

there are hundreds of bootlegs out there to sate the ravenous soulero set, and so often they incorporate songs in the vast numero catalog. rather than beat them, numero joins them with our answer to the iconic east side story series. eschewing our classic look and standard-bearing copious notes for sardonic artwork and impeccable selections, numbero is proud to present a ‘bootleg’ you can be proud of (because it’s all licensed). this time we’ve set our sights on the most unique of soul cultures: the irreplicable melting pot of san antonio. included here are all songs never before issued other than in minuscule pressings on 45, never distributed outside of bexar county limits.

real d. burst on the scene last summer with his breakthrough track rhodes that . one year on and the release is still in high demand, fetching upwards of £50 on the cogs. matt & stu were invited to play at his party in his hometown of bordeaux late last year and the idea of an ep for wolf was discussed over the best red wine and cheese the southwest of france had to offer. in a strange but true story a 3d glasses company in silicon valley called real d came knocking and with the threat of legal action, his name had to be changed & real j. was born. another great addition to the ever-growing wolf music roster.

your lost property is ready for collection. the mysterious series of reduxes, reworks & re- versions continues. wild rumours abound about who is behind them, but it seems likely pbr streetgang may have something to do with it, that or ghost of walter gibbons, we cant be sure. from the obscure and rare proto electro gem endo to the adriatic, windswept euphoria of rimini cruising and then a sultry, spacey one night stand that is hott in the city .on the flip, the classic re-cut of do it yer sen it s vocal message ringing as true up on the bleak moors of yorkshire as it does on the mean streets of new york. finally say anything takes us home on a wing and a prayer, a perfect end of the night record

next up on hell yeah is -the most balearic record i have ever released- according to label boss & it comes from japan s disco don max essa which features a four part track, themes from the hood, the cad, & the lovely, on one side of vinyl, and two more on the flip. essa was born matthew bruce and the uk artist has now been releasing his blissed out beats on labels like feel music, electric minds, bear funk and is it balearic? recording for a decade. a prolific producer whose big hits like panorama suite/uptown vibration (is it balearic?) from 2010 have long been in the hell yeah boss s record bag, essa first approached the label with a bunch of tracks. a good correspondence alchemy ensued and together the artist and label decided to put out the most timeless 12inch possible. the exquisitely ambitious themes from the hood, the cad, & the lovely is almost 12 minutes of serene ambient synth work that is like a soundtrack to a hot summer s day. heavenly chords sound just like a breathy female vocal and as they come and go, one finger piano tinkles add real emotional beauty and gentle twinkles shimmer in the distance. half way through lazy drums propel things along at a loveably lethargic pace and immediately place you on the beach. on the flip, saguaro is just as organic and beautiful, but has tumbling drums, wooden hits and soft claps as well as essa s magical synth work all bathing your soul in warm rays. b2 buran chime is perfectly horizontal and expansive, with tinkling triangles, angelic chords and scattered hits and harpsichord sounds all radiating effusively. this is timeless music that will calm busy minds now and forever.

extreme-orient, technoïd and abstract shades. new outgrowth of the blaník research program, the young korean artist seaen lee offers a four tracker speculative/experimental hybrid techno research. its about fierce and heading forces, flashing shades coming out of nowhere. these aquatic and abyssal hummings, among other technoïds and abstract blushes, have no other choice but to take out for real. must be used with wise hands.

anglo-cherokee-japanese skateboarder turned musician korey dane returns with his second album chamber girls. influenced by the likes of t.s. eliot, tom waits, karen dalton, the beatles and the stones, and more, chamber girls was recorded almost completely live at l.a.’s analog time capsule valentine recording studios, searing instinct and experience direct to tape. dane produced everything himself, too, except for a quick assist from legendary producer tony berg (x, public image ltd.) on one song, and he was inspired by the deceptively simple ethos he’d internalized while making youngblood: pursue greatness. “writing a song that you know someone might skip over later is sacrilege,” he says. instead, he wanted every song on chamber girls to feel not only live but alive, too, with that go-forbroke spirit that animates everything he says, does, or sings: “i’m writing all the time,” he says. “i’ve lived by a line a day sometimes. i try and stop when it’s good. if you try and simplify it down to its bare elements ... it’s truly a redemptive act.”

arriving as the first release of the new sublabel series figure jams, this split ep by fabrizio lapiana and amotik serves not only as a crafty cut in its own right but also showcases a particular type of package, which figure will be facilitating from now on. the a-side is taken up by a pair of lapiana’s irresistably dense grooves that unmistakebly tread in the footsteps of his homeland’s highly emotional techno, unafraid of big melodies but also injecting just the right amount of twisted acid to set the floor ablaze. this sense of grandeur and space is also reflected in the work of fast-rising producer amotik. painting with his very own colours as an equally epic scenery, its bleak and post-apocalyptic landscape dominated by broken industrial beats and hypnotically swirling synths.

it is making my blood boil. man, my jaw is hanging down listening to this stuff. read the email from butthole surfers man and producer, paul leary, when he heard the demo for what would become the debut philipp gorbachev & the naked man album. philipp gorbachev, the russian musician and dj, has been throwing killer parties and making some of the most innovative and exciting electronic music to come out of moscow in years. in 2014 he released his debut album silver album but when invited to perform a live boiler room he had something else in mind: a band scenario. the resulting concoction was not something locked into a 4/4 beat but rather a much more organic, groove-based sound with funk-strutting bass lines and live drums that rolled and flurried around the beats that jumped around leading the charge of the songs along with gorbachev’s damo suzuki-like vocals. taking that experiment into the studio, i dont give a snare is a wild ride that jumps genres, switches paces and alters tones frequently. the opening goodman exploding in intense rhythms and heavy, spiralling riffs that at times recall sabbath but the ever-shifting drums and gargling electronics give a wonky freshness that feels impossible to place into genre. whilst gorbachev cites a range of influences from beck to blind willie johnson as being core to him, the primary motivation is the live nature of the project itself. the main influence is the constant live experience we have as music players and performers. i want to get the most out of every party, every jam, and every dancefloor.

mei zhiyong had been instrumental in arranging dp’s tour of china. when mei zhiyong and dave phillips first met in beijing in july 2014, mei spoke not a word of english and dp not a word of chinese. and they we were to embark on an 18 city tour together. verbal communication between mei and dp was obviously difficult to say the least. it would often result in comical misunderstandings, total puzzlement or bewilderment, but it would also be a source of constant amusement with wonderful moments of instinctive trust. but then there is sound, the ultimate language… to return the favor, dp arranged a tour for mei and himself in october 2015 through 20 european cities. which is where the source material was recorded. dp then selected, dissected and transformed those recordings to work out something different, not just a collaboration, not just an amalgam of two styles, but something new for both. the compositions on this lp are the result.

danny scrilla returns to cosmic bridge records with a full-length project inspired by a desire to experiment outside of club conventions. while cosmic bridge has become known for forward-thinking, dubwise dancefloor mutations, label founder om unit has long been a fan of ambient and synthesizer music and ancient musical box offers a current take on the format, with 16 tracks of lush electronic compositions and meditations. fittingly, ancient musical box also marks the label s first cassette release.

ancient musical box was written over the past year as a direct reaction to danny s frustration with club music and the inevitable cynicism that can sometimes arise from prolonged contact with scenes, styles, and genres. i wanted to create something without any ulterior motives, he explains. as the tracks accumulated, the project took on a personal dimension and therapeutic qualities. intent on not over-thinking or polishing his ideas, danny created something that is less album and more a collection of emotions in their rawest form.

despite not being intended for the dancefloor, the music on ancient musical box still bears clear relations to danny s catalogue in its minimalist approach and use of melodic motifs. you can hear it in the hazy crescendo of night sweats , the wobbly funk of pangalactic gargleblaster , and the gentle keys of talisman . alongside these are more experimental moments, seemingly fragile in their simplicity but hiding a depth that reveals itself in context: the delicate loops of the title track, the vibrations of cryopod , the melancholy progressions of too little too late .

ancient musical box is the sound of a producer remembering that the best ideas are the simplest, in the process pointing to new directions.

“ok so this is my 7th album, it doesn’t feel like it but i don’t know what should ... the last dnb album i wrote from the ground up was overflow, so in between i released shelflife 2 a compilation of unreleased tracks, and shine a light my weird departure from everything, with even ifË. i was back on familiar ground, i employed my voice a few times, got emotional, forgot everything and turned the tempo up. i am always looking for the songwriter slant in dnb, to feel the blues in my music is important to me, it is a raw connection i never get tired of looking for. and to sing it means a lot to me. i have tried to cover my own long standing interests in a musical genre that was supposed to have died a long time ago. and so here it is, a collection of tunes i have put together for the purpose of moving some part of you that’s the same part of me.” - calibre 2010

in 2009 synus0006 and maks launched a new electronic music label called panel trax records. panel trax records is based in hungary, budapest but it has grown international due to its producers and its trax which are being played all around the globe.

producer mad zach finds himself comfortably nestled in the hip-hop, dub and glitch-tipped zone of electronic music, and his latest productions have done nothing but further that fact.

mad zach debuts his newest ep, fortress, on march 10th via plasma audio. the five-track compilation serves as a follow up to quantum shock, which was released in 2015 including collaborations from g jones and sayer. fortress features zach’s brooding and rhythmic single, “robovox.” mixmag premiered the tune last month. mad zach will be heading out across the western us and canada this june to bring fortress to life.

born as the daughter of two opera singers josin grows up constantly surrounded by music. for herself josin draws a lot of her inspiration of the northern world, which is as rich in contrasts as her music. it is rough and cold but full of nutrients and life. and if you wish you can exist in it and slowly but certainly and then forever recognise its beauty. currently the musician is working on her first album and new songs. although josin likes to choose a way between elegance and minimalism, the first tracks of the new recordings present themselves with a power that presses forward more determinedly. her producing also appears more open and experimental with electronical and classical elements. yet she maintains her natural otherness and intensity in a timeless way.

what does teen spirit smell like, anyway? it might smell something like noise addict. like the real life stars of some sort of choose-your-own-adventure book about pursuing rock stardom, few bands ever led a more charmed existence, springing from the sydney suburb of bondi into seemingly overnight international fame as friends and collaborators of sonic youth, fugazi, and the beastie boys. through a combination of relentless drive, luck, and an admirable lack of self-doubt, noise addict spanned puberty to surpass the haters and join radio birdman and nick cave as a strange but permanent piece of australian punk history.
compiled here are 25 tracks, including their evan dando-worshipping satire “i wish i was him,” the thurston moore produced demo, choice cuts from their grand royal-issued ep and lp, and covers of “let’s lynch the landlord” and “back in your life.” the entire sordid adolescent tale is covered in incredible detail inside the black and white 16 page zine. and finally, for the first time in the history of record pressing, and for no good reason at all, the cover for 10.000 kids with guitars doubles as a working chalkboard.

nice price deal !!! for its seventh release, aku welcomes molly with her debut solo ep, a sublime three tracker. the french artist has established a sterling reputation with remixes on labels such as rekids, karlovak and all inn but this is her very first collection of solo work. ‘s.b relief’ finds a home on yoyaku’s sublabel aku. over on the a side, she comes with a slight different style, throwing down a rolling beat with some minimal glitch. a round and heavy bass drives the track along while a dubby synth adds character. one for the summertime heads, you can feel the ultraviolet rays beaming out of this one. on the b side, are two deep, sultry productions, with house tropes and minimal bleeps. both cerebral, sensitive compositions, that kind of tracks that molly skill fully threads into her dj sets.

baaz from berlin gives us further insight into his diverse musical interests with his two (for you) ep on office. as the title suggests the talented producer splits his musical activity into two genres on this record: one is deep and moody techno with a knack for strong sub bass and soft pads. and the other one is striking ambient with a wonderful appreciation of moving melodies and mellow chords combined with touching vocal parts. what is remarkable how well these four carefully building tracks go together and how effortless they further underline baaz artistic vision of reduced and understated electronic music which unfolds slowly but emphatically. a respectable new record which is well worth opening yourself to

christian nielsen is a musician you would not immediately expect to see behind the speicher / kompakt extra crest. we love to surprise your ears and have enjoyed for some time his outsider approach to any genre he chooses to tackle. in particular with “hard times” – a prime-time melodic monster that bridges the right transitions. right when you need them to. berlin via belgium techno juggernaut locked groove has been on our radar for ages thanks to releases on hotflush and afterlife. “dawn” is one of those magical tunes that loop along but evolves with every listen. you hold us to it that we think it could be the best set opener 2017 will have to offer. intricate drums balance well with lush minimalistic melodies. our speicher series rapidly heads towards 100. where it goes, only we know - so savour the flavour while it lasts.

best works records label-owner andré lodemann is back with a new long-awaited ep on his imprint. it is the 20th release on the label. for this “birth” ep andré personally enlisted non-other than swiss duo adriatique for their remix skills aswell as new-comer producer fabian dikof. andré’s track “birth” creates contrasts using african-drumming inspired styles paired with techy-beat pro-gramming. starting more on a minimal tip the track works its self up to high-tension climaxing with an emotional break keeping the deeper moments intact. adriatique created a faster more club-orientated ver-sion paring the more hooky parts of the original with beat-sythn elements giving the track a more tribal feel. the second remix featured here come’s via fabian dikof the second main artist on best works records. it s great to have him remix andré lodemann at last presenting his masterful skills. fabian took a different path in his remix working more on the melodic hook but also creating a warm bass-laden soundscape that loves the dance-floor in its own right.

santiago leyba makes his vinyl debut on the label following the rooms tape released earlier this year. recorded simultaneously, life, money, work shows the new york-based artist by way of albuquerque, new mexico, portraying the different characters one might have in a broken mind. sketching a strong criticism of america by means of disorienting vocals and slow-paced d.i.y. electronics, santiago finds him performing alter-egos of sorts — ranging from forlorn ballad singing, to more guttural and strained barking seeking to describe a conflict in maintaining a unified persona. paid labor, sex, and consumer goods. how america tells you to grow up when there is nothing left but complacency and oppression through economic and social means. it all goes down to the shortcomings of humanity, the tangled webs we weave, the impossibility of justice and fairness, and the pressure those things put upon ourselves.

a quasar is the most luminous object in the known universe. it emits extreme amounts of visible light, but radiates like crazy on all other wavelengths, as well. here you can get as close to a particularly energetic quasar as no man has ever been before - during an adventurous space flight with felix eul and a bunch of other well-travelled sound cosmonauts. this voyage takes you to the final frontiers and beyond where you might even encounter strange aliens like the pianoctopus, known to sneak its tentacles into the ears of unsuspecting astronauts and to tickle their skullcaps from the inside. by the way, during our flight we might experience turbulences which you will experience as sudden, adrenaline-loaded outbursts of euphoria. they are caused by transdimensional discharges along the wings of our spaceship, a phenomenon known as interplay.

did he ever really leave berlin? yes: sascha funke was regularly in cologne. but then nowhere else. sure, as a dj and live artist he travelled around the world. but as a producer he always remained true to his peer labels bpitch control and kompakt with some minor exceptions. so far, so good. but now, just after the german that started his early attempts as a producer to-gether with paul kalkbrenner dropped some new feverish spaced out solo eps on imprints like multi culti and tiga’s turbo recordings label, the berlin born producer, dj and football fever victim re-leases his new, third solo album “lotos land” on tokyo’s finest platform for diverse musical adven-tures endless flight.

eric fetcher has been given the honour of contributing to invite’s choice and does so with a four-track banger for its ninth output.
kaissa’s neurotic synth and wobbly bass combined with its forceful hi-hat open this ep in a stripped-down fashion, which makes it perfect to build tension and make transitions in any dirfections while mixing. mephisto continues on the path chosen with coherent and hypnotising synthesis, whilst keeping a funky kind of feel due to the very present kick and hi-hats, yet has a darker feel to it. deep blue on the b-side is a more four-to-the-flour track with a rousing synth and banging hi-hat, perfect for lifting up a crowd! cray blitz combines hypnotising bleep-like sounds and a mind-blowing string with droning low-end sounds. hypnotising like the other tracks - but with more drive - this ep is closed down. eric fetcher showcases his take on techno which fits perfectly between both modern day and oldschool techno!

nice price deal !!! the flatmate ghost ep takes the classic tech house aesthetic on a laid back, rolling journey, while two distinctly dissimilar remixes open your eyes and ears further. title track flatmate ghost quickly lures you into a subtly relaxing beat but as soon as youre locked, dissonant synth bursts and ominous, pitched down vocal meanderings immediately disrupt the dance. while kellerkinds take on the original brings forth a shoulder swinging groove, soothing piano riffs and clever silences. andres zaccos version moves with relentless percussion, delving into the hollow depths of dark bass. quality time offers the more sensual side of soukie & windishs production. here, otherworldly harmony prevails while the characteristic jarring stabs take a backseat. soukie & windish manage to visit opposite ends of the spectrum without losing the unique creative resonance the pair found in this collaboration.

the latest compilation from dutch imprint wolfskuil records offers up three more secret weapons continuing the series with four artists already well at home on the label.as the title suggests, each track is a heavy-hitter, but as a whole this release acts as a showcase exposing three very different approaches to peak-time techno.

as technology consumed the antikytherian empire, the council of conjunction had no choice but to take desperate measures: probe 2187 was launched into the event horizon of markarian 335. its mission was to find an escape route into an alternate reality. a hazardous mission and as the orbit failed, the probe made one last transmission before it was submerged into oblivion. the phantom regiment, with their time manipulation abilities, managed to capture these signals. trusted sources claim transmitters 1200 & 1210 are the only reliable outputs for these remnants of a technologically advanced society. the antikytherian empire, believed to be the first cosmic empire, was never heard of again

releasing timeless music has always been one of the main aims of hivern. sometimes, this purpose asserts itself in curious manners. take margot s moderno , a track made in 2003, several years before the label was born. actually, when pepe and giaga produced the piece for a punk oriented art installation, margot didn t even exist as a project. 14 years later, moderno sounds as fresh and contemporary as it can be. it s one of those cuts that chases a very specific idea with a very unconstrained scheme, that knows exactly where it wants to go, but is not sure about how to get there.

this june will see bondage music release part two of it’s ‘home (remixes)’ package, welcoming an array of artists to remix mihai popoviciu’s recent long player on the label. following on from part 1 of the package which has already garnered support from the likes of huxley, neverdogs, emanuel satie and mat.joe to name but a few, bondage music returns with the second offering in this four part series. tuccillo takes the lead with his interpretation of ‘focus’, and as always from the ibiza-based unblock music founder we’re treated to intricately programmed, smooth and hypnotic material laid out over seven and a half minutes with a deftly unfolding dynamic feel. el mundo’s take on ‘triumph’ follows, dropping the tempo and instilling a latin edge to things via organic percussion, emotive strings and mystical vocals. frankfurt’s sascha dive then offers up his ‘atmospheric dub’ of ‘music 999’ to open the flip side, as the name would suggest shining light on billowing dub stabs, ethereal atmospheres and robust rhythms before kevin yost closes the package with his percussive driven ‘hynposia’ remix. the mihai popoviciu ‘home (remixes) part 2’ is out on bondage-music 9th june 2017
