home recorded above a lawyers office and next door to a brothel, the retrospective is lead by the earth shattering digi stepper rock steady. originally intended for an abandoned dub album, rock steady and fantasy dub were saved from the cutting room floor by australian cd-only compilations on creative vibes and vital collective clan analogue, while green river was never released. now demanding wider appreciation, the dubs finally find union with green man’s new york hip hop/dancehall style, lifted from his second solo album the blue hour vol. 3: deep blue. humbly excelling in all electronic forms, rantzen helped guide techno-rave duo itch-e & scratch-e through the 90s with paul mac. winning the inaugural best dance release category at the 1995 aria awards, mac thanked all of sydneys ecstasy dealers, without whom this award would not be possible, while rantzen stayed at home. the two would also operate incognito as boo boo & mace and screensaver, often collaborating on looney dubs with sheriff lindo - the master of seismic shocks down under. rantzens earliest work stretches back to pelican daughters, an ensemble who proliferated industrial-leaning ambient and tape loop experiments

NOVA 118 EP (SAMUEL L SESSION, JUSTIN BERKOVI REMIXES)
12"
30.10.17
to make it true and organic was the main purpose when german producer filou started his work for nova 118 ep. both original tracks, radon and scandium represent the path of techno with house influences. the tracks are rich in details and short fills which makes this a truly outstanding record. as this isn’t enough filou presents two versions of -radon- and -scandium- demonstrating where techno and house can take you. as the original concentrates on a percussive rhythm, samuel l. session’s version is arranged more classically -- a deep chord, a clear beat, accentuated hi-hats and claps. the -justin berkovi remix- carefully-placed sounds building the track into a dynamic and hypnotic whole. the percussiveness here is more profound, shaping the track in a completely different way. already massive plays by a bunch of dj-s incl. villalobos.

in the field of minimal house reissues, this is a big deal. perlon main man dimbiman doesn’t appear on wax often, but when he does he makes it count. this early release on baby ford s seminal pal sl was originally out in 1998, when minimal house was a vague concept at best on the most outer reaches of dance music. -iso grifo- itself remains a masterclass of spine-chilling space and perfectly strange sonic matter, while -lava- pushes the notion of reduction dance music to its absolute limit. -round- is an even more immersive affair that hides many subtle layers within its seemingly simple construct. quite simply groundbreaking stuff, and highly sought after so don’t sleep on it.

alessio mereu joins andrea ferlin to create a brand-new duo: aleandro. the two sardinian artists have both been producing for a very long time, but this collaboration promises to deliver quality with 1921 ep.
the a-side kicks off with 19, a soothing track with a strong presence of modulated synths and pads, perfectly balanced with deep basses and kicks. its continual bassline only encourages the rest of the instruments to develop organically, making this one a very special journey throughout its length. the b-side 21 is more influenced by techno with heavier kicks and basses. the duo use trippy sonorities to catch people’s attention but beware: this track will even make your grandparents boogie!

1800haightstreet finally break a years hiatus in the caves of vancouver to come roaring back onto lobster theremin with a bumper album of long-awaited otherworldly techno experiments.
with that classic, depth-charged warehouse sound blending the heavier side of detroit techno with a shot of basic channel atmospherics and a rickety stepped uk edge, this is a real time-stamp set into stone. a spectral rotation through the deeper sides of 4/4 with each slice coated in a dazzling array of synth programming, heavily effected interstellar rhythms and processing that goes from scorched & crusted to clean and undulating as each side is flipped.
a refined and considered document spanning the many elements of techno that sees thumping deepness (vanisher, super intelligent, psychic) collide with crunchy, straight-down-the-line stompers (the ram, endless, razor, diagonal iris), blistering heaviness (flood, intuitionist) and galaxian dub techno (past life memory).
overall, a truly inspiring body of modern techno from one of the finest and most standout new artists in canadian electronic music.

what about this love is not only a famous larry heard song but now it s also a house music label. the first release sees the detroit outsider javonntte and the berliner-italian deep88 on a real underground raw house song, matching the detroit soul house with the rawness and liveness of the italian producer, creating an epic vocal track, something that could have been made in the golden age of house music. on the flip there s the melchior sultana treatment, a name that is rising release after release thanks to his works and nothing else, playing all the kinds of instruments and being able of using sequencers and drum machines creating a perfect balance between a real musician and a serious house producer, add to all this a deep88 remix and a javonntte amazing dub version and the watl01 is served. more to come.

What About This Love
satori returns to crosstown rebels with his atmospheric album maktub. here is a four track vinyl sampler from the album, including a live unreleased vinyl only version of ‘while i miss you’.
music flows through the veins of satori. no ordinary artist, he is creating deeply spiritual music through a range of instruments and production techniques. maktub, his debut album on the illustrious crosstown rebels pulls the listener into an exotic world, blurring the lines between electronic and meditative music.
at the core of maktub is satori’s desire to touch people with his music, and his vocals shine through from start to finish, as he guides the listener on an arabian nights inspired journey.
after the success of ‘imanis’ dress’ and ‘umama’ singles, satori’s album is a work of sonic beauty. this four track sampler features four diverse cuts from the album that will each beguil, inspire and enthrall.

professor rhythm is the production moniker of south african music man thami mdluli. throughout the 1980’s, mdluli was member of chart-topping groups taboo and cjb, playing bubblegum pop to stadiums. mdluli became an in-demand producer for influential artists (like sox and sensations, among many others) and in-house producer for important record companies like eric frisch and tusk. during the early ’80s, mdluli projects usually featured an instrumental dance track. these hot instrumentals became rather popular. fans demanded to hear more of these backing tracks without vocals, he says, so mdluli began to make solo instrumental albums in 1985 as professor rhythm. he got the name before the recordings began, from fans, and positive momentum from audiences and other musicians drove him to invest himself in a full-on solo project. it was the era just before the end of apartheid and house music hadn’t taken over yet. there wasn’t instrumental electronic music yet in south africa. as the ’80s came to a close, that was about to change.

by now, the world is familiar with the extensive works of monsieur dimitri from paris. his prowess as a globetrotting dj and taste-maker for over 20+ years, his reputation for the finer things in life, his sartorial style and of course most importantly his infamous remixes and disco edits. isn’t it odd that until now, there hasn’t been an official home for the man’s stellar reworks? it just doesn’t make any sense. this is exactly the reason that he has decided to set up this brand new venture - le edits records. naturally, a high standard of quality is present with all le edits releases across the board - from sourcing 100% virgin vinyl used for pressing to the mastering through tape, to the beautifully crafted and designed tip-on sleeves that were popular with record companies in the 1960’s and 1970’s, to the wonderfully imagined graphic design that adorns said sleeves - dimitri has overseen every aspect of this, his first label.
what about the music? we hear you ask? well, simply put, only the finest disco reworks are to be released on le edits. fans will be treated to dim’s special versions of classics and rarer than rare tracks, all lovingly re-touched and mixed from the reels and master tapes each time, fully sanctioned and created in conjunction with the artists, rights holders and above board distribution. 100% official and 100% essential.

the copie blanche adventure begins with ‘beats around the bush’, a 4-track various. the a-side – called yesterday, is a tribute to the 90’s house scene, on which jemaho and groove riddim painted their vision of the house music. on the other side – today, armless kid and louis dauvergne, the two boys from the copie blanche crew, gave their take on house with verve.
we welcome gabo barranco to the omnidisc family. gabo has a recklessly curious ear for distortion. an enthusiast and creator of electronic music ranging from classic acid house to crackling ambient to venetian snares-style glitch bass assaults. on jazz d, aaaa channels his admittedly shy personality into an identity-hopping slate of ideas that s undeniably intense.
