london head aroop roy takes on brazilian rhythms for the 4th time on gamm and its quite possibly the best one yet. the working formula, simple but yet very well crafted to work both in clubs and for home listening. first off we get -flecha de foga- that uses a rare nazare pereira samba track as the foundation but with loads of added chords, beats and production details. on the flip todo mundo tem amor marries a driving analogue bassline to an amped up version of another sul americano classic - blazing !

first ep of the label lowlife cartel. dissociative tones, texture of the sound and atmosphere sought here, more than melody. no boundary in genre but same sonic ethos. the two sides of the ep includes two tracks ambient/downtempo fitting with patient listening. three other, lofi tracks, and more efficient to play into clubs. face a starts with -nerve splicing- by telekommunist, also known as wpx7, face covered and steps muffled through a deadening blizzard of tape saturation and white noisey envelops that find a balance between deepening the sense of immersion and a retained groove. -kairu- by a. latif, affiliated to the experimental and elusive russian label john s kingdom. an arsenal of textures are employed, surrounded all the time by different kind of breeths carving out a growingly satisfying contrast between the shivery charm of its melodic line and the roughness of its elements. a rough diamond. face b, -kfs-, by vslds (present on the next cousin carl release, after kinway and voyd) is a delusional and abstract piece of lofi hip hop. setting skittish drums and heavily altered rapper vox sample, smothered against a grey-ish canvas of blurry, washed-out pads. this feels both playful and unhealthy. -gotta go fast-, by paul santangelo (venetian causeway), is marked with the very personal style of this artist who does his way across the ever effervescent lofi techno scene. the round, drag-shed bass, fits with an introspective melody and atmosphere. -every man has a woman who loves him-, by loophie (raw russians), surprises the listener at the end of the disc with a lofi house track sampled from john lennon, very effective in club. the czech lofi house videomaker moskalus edited a video of it on his youtube channel. 5 artists to follow.

last summer dan ghenacia was digging through his own record collection when he found a rare gem, a priceless italian jewel. back in the 90s when he first picked up the ep, dan was spinning the b-side, with no vocal. back to present time, and after a few weeks of pondering, dan decided to give the vocal version a spin... the track quickly became a total bomb in fact, sending kids crazy both in the clubs and online, where nobody has been able to identify it. intrigue has surrounded the track over the past year, with a ceaseless hunt for the mysterious old gem proving fruitless...apollonia are proud to finally unveil this old school killer with an exclusive repress of body beat originally released by laser on pin up records in 1993. this early nineties organ-led masterpiece is uplifting and groovy, with heavy beats powering the track along, illuminating dance floors around the world every time dan has played it. on the a-side we have body beat , the vocal version that has been doing so much damage, while on the flip is body under , which is more of an eyes-down, moody roller

we are very exited to present you a fresh and sharp ep from julien wich is a big fan of the label since the beginning.. today we got the best of his music.julien sandre makes its debut on french,classy label home invasion with a 4-tracks ep, wrapped in elegance and charm but at the same time rich of kiiller grooves and energy between hypnotics synth associated with micro-house elements that will make you dance in clubs and will make you dream in the afters party.a side is the -deeply- part of the ep where restless looks perfect to move the floor with its fat rolling groove and tripping chords, title track serendipty express perfectly julien s sound of the moment: minimal drums & refined pads for a dreamlike journey to the start till the end.b side is more micro-house oriented.just make sense remind us about tracks of gold period of minimal of early 2000 s but updated to our days with a wild, floor killer beat & smooth stabs and effects. closing track autonoe looks perfect for after moments. minimal-jazzy drums imbued with hypnotic deep elements. maybe serendipty ep represents one of best julien s work, its route appears more mature than ever.

tribute for our beloved clubs, where every night we express ourselves and grow as artists and human beings, while discovering music and connecting with each other, sharing unique feelings and emotions. 4clb delivers non-compromising quality music for the modern dance floors around the world, straight from the argentina s heart.

the debut homemade weapons lp ‘negative space’ is still fresh in peoples playlists after a unanimously acclaimed release, and has gone on to be used as a benchmark for d&b lp’s that exist on the edges of the music’s periphery. combining function and form with equal emphasis, negative space is an lp full of tracks that dj’s play in clubs as opposed to being largely relegated to online mixes. to follow on from the lp, we selected 3 samurai artists to rebuild their favourite tracks from negative space and have combined this with a tidal track vip from homemade weapons made initially for his dj sets. ancestral voices, the untouchables, and sam kdc all turn in unique interpretations.

born in shreveport, louisiana, reuben bell began singing in local clubs. he first recorded for the local murco label in 1967 before moving to the silver fox and house of orange labels. in 1975 he released his first 45rpm single for alarm records (-superjock- b/w -i still have to say goodbye-) which was produced by wardell quezergue. neither side made any noise back then but 24 years later -superjock- was included in dj shadow & cut chemist s brainfreeze mix. since then it has become a classic and it has been played constantly by hip hop and funk djs all around the world. it has appeared on a handful of (mainly bootleg) compilations over the years so we are proud to present the long-overdue, fully licensed re-issue on its original format. you may check out tramp s -countdown to... soul- (tr-9067) compilation which contains -superjock- as well as some other fine rare grooves.

after the huge success of their first collaboration, doorly and el prevost are back for part two: this time the world touring doorly serves up a hot original that gets remixed by red rack‘em and el prevost, while el prevost also serves up an original of his own, all on his own no speakers label. the first ep, featuring a lee foss remix, got support form the likes of paco osuna, solomun and groove armada and this second instalment is set to be just as big this summer. doorly is a dance heavyweight who headlines clubs like space ibiza on his global travels, releases on cajual, hot creations and dirtybird and is no stranger to hitting high places in the charts with his big and infectious sounds. as a dj he is energetic and can make a mark on any dance floor, and so will this new tune, ’sonder.’ it is six superbly deep and atmospheric minutes of warm, rolling drums and searching synths that bring an intergalactic feel next to twinkling keys. jostling percussion brings a little loose funk and the whole thing is sure to lock in dance floors. el prevost then steps up to remix after 15 years of putting out killer cuts on labels like third ear. his music has made its way into the record bags of tastemakers like steve bug, dj hell and steffi and this excellent remix shows off his singular style again. it is a little tougher and more energetic than the original, with sprinkled hits, rumbling bass and pixelated synth lines dancing about up top. then comes red rack‘em, the bergerac boss who had a huge hit with ‘wonky disco bassline banger’ last year. it was one of the tracks of the year and has been followed by an equally brilliant album by this esteemed house veteran. his remix here is big, bouncy and off kilter thanks to its coarse hi hats and punchy rubber drums. great vocal treatment adds more wonkiness and broad synth strokes flesh things out into another sure-fire party starter that sounds like little else. last but not least, el prevost offers up a solitary state mix of his own ‘temper mental’. it’s a hugely inventive track with great synth modulations burrowing deep into your brain as dancing hi hats and whirring bass encourage you to cut loose and shift freaky shapes. this is a strong ep that really packs a punch across four standout tracks.

come together: re.yous younion returns with more sublime unifying forces. beats that bring us closer, feelings that break down barriers and artist partnerships whose creative connections are more than the sum of their parts. the message is clear in every directio, from the longstanding younion parties across europe to the slow-but-smouldering rise of the label, of which we are proud to present its third release tapping into the very same younion spirit that regularly shakes the walls of iconic clubs such as watergate berlin and pacha barcelona, this four track ep is an incisively curated collective ep comprising three acts who complement each other implicitly. as the dust still settles from florian busses recent younion outing, and solomun continues to hammer the labels first release from eins tiefer, the timing couldnt be better. the perennially on-point dutchman rancido takes the lead with two deep tribal odysseys that take root in the sound he’s made his signature. both >lagos< and the vinyl-only >rabat< conjure deep mystic textures around his stately, restrained and constantly developing grooves. there is a reason he is released with the mighty innervisions in the past. deeper again re.you whips up a percussive storm over palpitating synths in the form of >dao< before handing the controls over to rising german duo cosmo & kramer for an inspiring finale. a duo re.you has been championing since they warmed up for him five years ago, >dance< is a calling card for an extremely exciting future… and it more than lives up to its name. three releases deep and younions unifying forces couldnt be stronger. its time to combine.

when two creative minds join and bring an all-out modern disco track, this is the result. natasha kitty katt & twisted soul collective have aligned forces to bring you an array of ideas, thoughts, sounds and feelings. if you like your tracks, upbeat and funky, then this is a golden ticket. definitely for the disco dancers, you can visualise grooving to this number under a mirror ball. on the b side cosmic bitch with beautiful background orchestration and a contemporary groove can integrate perfectly into either a disco or house set. from big clubs, to sunshine surroundings, this track has already received stellar feedback.

with the 3-track ep mantra joix opens a new dimension in his electronic music. for the first time he uses his own voice on a larger scale, giving it a machine-like sound that transforms and heightens the meaning of his german words.

the lead track -mantra- refers to the techno movement in germany in the 90s, which joix lived and breathed as a teenager. those mystical experiences staying awake all night in rooms full of light and sound ÔÇ came close to the trance states attained by chanting mantras. this is the main idea and the emotional inspiration behind this pulsating a-side track.

a touch of nostalgia also comes through -w?ñchter der nacht-. this tune channels the mysterious night, the search for ecstasy and self-dissolution in music clubs protected by the guards of night. finally, klimax is a dancefloor banger that distinguishes itself by whipping up immense energy, and its space-filling melody and enormous hall cascades.

-in my house- is a -bucket list- song nickodemus always dreamed of covering into an actual house version. after a weekend of old-school partying in the clubs & hanging with baby bam from the jungle brothers in brooklyn, they called over carol c & lisa sha

nicola cruz polishes off a trippy tryptic of cult releases for multi culti with espÌritu. folklorica s chosen lord, nicola cruz has shepherded the masses from the church of high tempos and brought trance-formed revellers down to earth with his fusion of crisp electronics and organic, indigenous vibrations. miraculously, he has brought this style of music to europe s major big room clubs and huge festival stages worldwide, pleasing crowds in the habit of being hypnotized by homogenous house music. espìritu de protección opens as a revelation, two seconds into the groove and you re deep in the tribe. you re dancing, everybody s dancing, things dub out, melt down, and a haunting vocal wisps through the room, tickling the crowd from their tailbones to their pineal glands. just as you recover from that spell, in fly the flutes. every yogi in the vicinity sways into the front and all of a sudden, you know you re getting laid tonight. that s the kind of power we re dealing with: cruz control. it s so potent we had to carefully extract the flute-a-pella and serve it up separately to use as a cult dj tool. on the flip side, not one but two slamming remixes of tzantza from disco halal-defekting russian duo: simple symmetry. vinyl lovers rejoice in the supreme exclusivity on the digitally unavailable folklorica dub, a supreme tranceformational party tool with enough flute to elevate the mind of the many.

tanzbarer indie-rock von einem newcomer-trio aus london.
das junge trio little cub aus london genießt in seiner heimatstadt den ruf, einer der aufregendsten newcomer der stadt zu sein. gepflegt subversive bescheidenheit, opulente und bewegende elektronsiche einflüsse ganz im einklang mit dem hausgemachten, progressiven brit pop feeling. so versteht sich das trio auch als kontrastmittel zu der oft geistlosen pop musik, die sie sonst umgibt. mit ihrem gesellschaftsblick sind sie zusätzlich auch die band für eine post-brexit party: politisch, melancholisch, ernüchtert, anti-aktionistisch. und trotzdem geladen. so erzählt das debütalbum still life vom leben in london der 2010er jahre, von menschlichen niederlagen, gesellschaftlichen tragödien, nächten in clubs und tagen in buchhandlungen. dazwischen kommt und geht die liebe mit den gezeiten.
limitierte goldene heavyweight lp mit achtseitigem booklet und mp3-downloadkarte inklusive bonus remixen.

walrus has no fear! by taking care of the maiden release on his newborn label “basic moves” he shows the spiritual direction and marks the blueprint for future offerings. the concept is simple: a 12” always has two different sides. one track on each side, each track a different mood. “full of feeling” resonates like the synthesis of an endless night encoded in washes of sounds. twisted, alienated vocal signals communicate in deep space to form a teasing, never-ending, spine-tingling groove. the weekend lingers on, the dream is not over. “among the thugs” is stripped down music for abandoned warehouses. a distorted vision of bleep techno and druggy chicago acid house hides deep in the quirky waves of this wobbly and moody crowd mover. the ghosts of after hours haunting sweaty warehouse clubs from the past seem to float over these excellent tracks. walrus refers to the best of all eras but forges his own unique stamp of modern dance music. underground clubs are where his music comes alive.

portable sunsets is one of the monikers of peter segerstrom: a producer based in brooklyn, us. he previously released his full-length album bless on atomnation, an lp as surfing on 1080p and another portable sunsets lp on deadelus magical property label. order is the follow up of these records and is a dreamy, somewhat lo-fi experimental techno lp. combined with an ancient ambient undertone, ‘order’ is not loosing its club ready vibe. this record floats somewhere between laid-back warehouse techno and the electronica genre - very much representing a unique style: peter often uses his own voice in his productions, programmed through self-created synths in max/msp. vocals have become textures and are used as a synth, pad or soundscape. the combination of genres makes order a perfect record to dream away on at home, as well as to dance to in clubs.

when it was released in the summer of 2016, eli escobars happiness blew people away with its sophisticated house/disco hybrid sound and striking urban landscape. critics were falling over themselves to hyperbolise over elis exquisite synth stabs while the coveted double lp continues to sell through to this day. the quintessential new york dj, eli’s happiness stomped through the streets of his city, stopping off along the way at the jumping brooklyn basement clubs and dusty record shops that he frequents. some months later, developing on those themes seemed like the most natural thing to do, hands flew up across the board for remixing duties and assembling the extended classic family to contribute was an easy, nay joyful, task. happy again was born, giving the album a fresh new suit of clothes. re-works from kon, soulphiction and yam who? alongside bonus versions of tracks from the original album makes this the ultimate vinyl bumper pack
