invada veröffentlicht den score zur britischen independent-horror-komödie prevenge. toydrum sind pablo clements und james griffith, die unter anderem auch bei unkle tätig sind. zudem haben sie mehrere soundtracks produziert, darunter für die tv-serie this is england von shane meadows. prevenge erinnert stilistisch an den film sightseers von ben wheatley, horror und britische comedy kommen hier ideal zusammen. Ähnlichkeiten sind nicht zufällig: die filme teilen sich die hauptdarstellerin und den drehbuchautor. der score von toydrum ist düster, elektronisch und passt ideal zu invada.

the second release in the series comes from the french master lowris with a remix from sammy dee

darren allen joins the family at discobar for a 2-part release, the first containing four abstract grooves disrupted by distinctive sound interventions both synthesised and real. a clock ticking on ‘initiation’ joins rapping snares in giving intent to the track’s floating melodic figures and vocalisations. ‘manitou’ overlays steppy breaks with the rumble and roar of the eponymous heavy-duty vehicle, an invasion of the outside world sure to bewilder some dancefloors.things turn darker with distorted highs and groggy mid-range drift in ’obyvatel’, before the quiet industry of ’molecular’ – its assorted bubbles and rattles both musical and humorous – brings us back to the light.

* this is a single cut release from akiko kiyama s fourth album, ophielia. these new works stem from two years of exploration outside of her established dance floor inclinations, boiling down her sound to its essential organic grooves, intricate harmonies and eerie atmospheres. from her peculiar sense of harmony and rhythm, and a meticulous minimalist approach to composition, rich lyrical lines emerges to form a unique musical universe that few has had the chance to hear yet.

37 kicks off with tó, circular, the percussion resonating in a room, the stabs leading, and the bass pumping. 12 is next, all harmony, promising pastoral harmony, synth clock and mouth moisture clicks. paradela bursts in on the flip side, monumental, synthetic symphony, acidic and bright. jordão is last, rhythmic stutter, the rhythm cuts through, accompanied by a monotone pulse, some lost keys make their way into the mix, it tries to stabilize so it can calmly take you by the hand and lead you home, into the river.

fjaaks weg führte sie von der peripherie ins zentrum und von dort aus kreuz und quer durch die welt. ihr selbstbetiteltes debütalbum für monkeytown ist gleichermaßen als bestandsaufnahme der letzten drei jahre wie als künstlerisches statement des berliner trios zu verstehen. fjaak vereint den energetischen peak-time-sound von fjaaks gefeierten techno-singles wie „unten / oben“ mit komplexen breakbeat-arrangements und atmosphärisch dichten ambient-momenten. die elf tracks sind der vorläufge höhepunkt einer einzigartigen erfolgsgeschichte, die ihren anfang abseits der clubkulturellen konventionen nahm und sich bis heute nicht von der mitte vereinnahmen lassen hat.

following the peace obscured ep by bokeh, his joint venture with anthone, katsunori sawa sets yet another mark on the weevil neighbourhood with his first full-length solo artist album on the label. titled secret of silence the eight tracks-spanning work of kyoto based sawa drills through japan techno, industrial breaks and noise while flirting with breakcore and a more aggressive take on dub.
katsunori sawa has been with the label for pretty much four years now with solo projects as well as joint ventures (besides the aforementioned bokeh, he’s also part of steven porter with his brother in arms yuji kondo with whom he also runs their own 10 label). his musical career reaches back another few years when he was writing and producing under eoc (short for enormous o clock), including an album for ai records.
the release comes as a limited edition 12” record on black vinyl with artwork by l.a. based lee noble (no kings records/ bathetic).

zum fünfjährigen jubiläum legt das britische label invada eine special edition des soundtracks auf. musikalisch gleicher inhalt, aber die verpackung ist völlig neu: regisseur nicolas winding refn und komponist cliff martinez haben neue liner notes verfasst. die komplett überarbeitete grafik stammt von dem künstler john bergin. das vinyl selbst ist zur hälfte transparent, zur hälfte pink. diese edition gibt es nur bis zum jahresende. sie ist zeitlich begrenzt und damit sehr limitiert. danach wird wieder die ursprüngliche version aufgelegt. -drive- gehört zu den populärsten scores der letzten jahre. die mischung aus elektronischer pop-musik (unter der leitung/produktion der chromatics) und dem elektronischem soundtrack (von cliff martinez, ex-red hot chilli pepeprs) geht wunderbar auf und verbindet sich treffsicher mit den suggestiven bildern des films.

d3 elements continues to mine the fertile soil of midwest inspired house, techno and electro with this fantastic new album from michael dykehouse (sometimes found turning out experimental fare on planet mu and ghostly). here the grooves are immediate and engaging across nine tracks, from the bubbly -meltdown morning- to the spooked-out -clock division-, touching on a range of styles all bound together by a commitment to classic drum machine beats and synthesiser tones. this is far from a throwback record though, instead celebrating dykehouse s innate musicality through all manner of tempos and moods and coming out as a well-rounded long player in the process.

plaid bereicherten die globale electronica-szene mit neuen rhythmischen variationen, emotionalen melodien und sinnlichen strukturen, und schufen so einen warmen und willkommenen gegenentwurf zu rohen energie der rave-explosion. auch ihr neues album “the digging remedy” bietet einen breiten und luxuriösen ansatz mit viel liebe zum detail. bezeichnend dafür sind die ekstatischen detroit-akkorde in “clock”, einer kollaboration mit dem digital-künstler cabbibo (cabbi.bo), oder die zusätzlichen gitarren- und flöten-elemente des multi-instrumentalisten benet walsh, die plaids komplexe soundpalette erweitern. das album erscheint als schwarzes doppelvinyl inkl. download-code, im ausgestanzten cover mit fantastischen optischen raffinessen im zusammenspiel zwischen aussen- und innenhüllen.

bryan kessler is not a musician, he is a force of nature. the young talent’s refreshing perspective on electronic club music shows a love for powerful sounds that so many other producers are lacking these days. something that he was already able to proof on releases for get physical (remixed by dj hell), coméme, low hanging fruit and like records. the release starts with you look like trunks, a heavily driving, desert inspired piece that makes clear that kessler grew up in rock music. his second track vegeta charges up with a red-glowing synth lead that eventually explodes in a wave of youngster mayhem. teens are still doing it! the b side is dedicated to ludwig zibell’s remixes of both tracks that continue kessler’s energy with precision and warmth. his b1 remix releases a flock of tarantulas that set the clock to peak time, while b2 adds psychedelic loops to the drive of the original. this is the fourth vinyl release of supermoll from köln. rooted somewhere between a sound of cologne legacy, german experimental kraut attitudes and dirty acid vibes from oversea. 150 hand numbered copies w/ illustration by paula prandini
