produced somewhere between a basement in brussels and an attic in the outskirts of paris, back when tape reel to reels, primitive rhythm boxes and analogue synths still carried a vague promise of the future, this music translated a certain atomic paranoia fuelled by the cold war industry. lo-fi music, abrasive, high pressure, dense, clipped to the max, like it was intended to punish any woofer that gets between it and the air.

copenhagens music for dreams continues its run of great releases with a tasteful 12 inch from label boss kenneth bager who presents four on-the-money remixes of his single *sunshine stereo* taken from forthcoming album *follow the beat*. currently enjoying heavy rotation on p3 (denmarks answer to radio one), this summery anthem gets makeovers from denmarks jazzbox, greek duo bonnie & klein and from mr bager himself who teams up with napoli-born producer extraordinaire tuccinelli to give us not only a superb extended vocal mix but also an on-fire dub version of the track that is sure to be a future classic both for the balearic brigade and all lovers of funky downtempo dubbed-out weirdness. treading the same territory as the fabulous frankie knuckles hallucinogenic mix of *aint nobody*, this dub is full of tricks, teasing and pleasing the dancefloor and already getting strong support of manchesters moonboots, amnesia legend leo mas and danish dj peter visti. elsewhere jazzbox deliver a great uptempo beach boogie version full of soul and groove making great use of the unmistakeable voice of damon scott, known for his work with storm queen, while bonnie & klein produce a very special percussive jazzy dub mix. the pair are on a roll at the moment and this remix with its warm marimba vibes creates that mediterranean vibe we all love. a real sun-soaked winter warmer, this 12 feels like a knitted sweater in the cold! limited vinyl.

cold colors was born in bordeaux, france, in the mid 70s. his passion for music, particularly new wave and melancholic atmospheres, started early and strongly influenced his own creations years later. the first records he ever bought were the cure, depeche mode and soft cell. in the 90s, frederick bought his first guitar and composed songs under the name agent orange. in 2002, the cold colors project was born, with a release on the excellent lux records, as well as many live performances. fred loves working with machines. his music mixes warmth and melancholia, an obvious homage to cold wave and new wave, by blending todays electronic music with the melodic sounds of yesterday.

australian synthesizer enthusiast, boogie revivalist and occasional house producer inskwel dons his rarely used cold chillin inkswel alias for this outing on marcel vogels lumberjacks in hell outfit. while the aussie producers disco and boogie influences can be heard on lemonade city, for the most part the ep is a house-centric affair. mercury retrograde melds a midtempo, head-nodding chugger out of backwards synth melodies and analogue sounding beats, while ompai delivers his usual, soft-focus blend of vintage synths and warm, floor-friendly bottom-end. theres a chunkier feel about the heavily filtered disco bump of lemonade city, while degrees in the shade moves from metronomic house throbber to sparse p-funk jacker in the blink of an eye

barely has the dust settled on the first cold tonic, yet label boss krystal klear is back already with two more heavy hitters for tonic002. building on the foundations of the debut release, dance 7fs shows a darker shadow rarely seen in previous krystal klear music. moving into lights out, eyes down territorywith the driving breaks of west end disco, this is kk stepping into his own. fumer tue features relics-esque string laden melancholy but never ever goes fully pg. this is r-rated lovers music and, if the feedback is anywhere near the mark, could easily go straight into last-tune-of-the-night-classic territory for the next generation of dance music connoisseurs.

lux rec continue their endless research at the margins of music, what is underground, at every latitude, to find rough gems and bring them to light. after a series of releases which explore techno in various ways, they turned their attention to another field. that of the cold electronics and new wave movement, and french musical existentialism. cold colors comes from bordeaux, france. to lux rec he is the best expression of and a new take on that type of music. a sense of solitude is the first reaction to his music. melodic longings for something that is not there, unreachable. four songs to depict a hopeless stare into emptiness. shadows of a love long gone.

after a brief hiatus church are back with a debut offering of original material from apes. the a side *two thousand six* is a straight up techno work out, having been tried and tested this track is aimed directly at the dance floor. chaos in the cbd are on board for the remix taking us on a journey of warm, deep, subtle analogue house fresh off the back of their stand out track *78 to stanley bay*. the b side *cold love* goes some way to show apes’ versatility as a producer, it’s a nostalgic piece of work, with a pulsating bass-line driving through the track along with intricate percussion and a choice vocal sample to round things off. cold love is equally suited for the club or for home listening. apes right hand man seb wildblood takes the track in a slightly different direction, using elements of the percussion and transforming the vocal sample for a delightful melodic contribution to the ep. early support from paul woolford, breach, ben pearce, dusky, alexander nut & more.

berlin-based producer and dj hubertus schacht is back on samuvar 6 with a stunning microdubhouse-track - >hikari< sports multi-layered soundscapes, is full of little nifty melodies and big mighty chords albeit never losing sight of the dancefloor. swinging hi-hats, compelling breaks and a massive drop – embedded in a smoothly floating midtempo-arrangement. perfect for the early morning hours when facing the absorbed crowd of usual suspects in a club. and just as perfect for lounging around at home. headphones, sofa, let the world float by. on the flipside pavel pokhorovsky, formerly responsible for samuvar4, presents a convincing track with a calm and concentrated pusher. timeless record, quality!

now hitting release number six, fly by night music serves up something slightly different from riccio (bosconi // super value), complete with a remix from craig smith (6th borough project), for its latest offering. this is an equally classy release but more of an obvious disco tip. coming in a press of 200 limited blue vinyl and a letter press sleeve, this is another boutique package from fbnm. the man behind the jungle way ep is italian riccardo zanaroli aka riccio, who most recently appeared on the widely lauded bosconi compilation bosconi stallions. a dj, collector, producer and record seller, riccio is a staple on the italian scene and brings plenty of louche disco funk to this release.

*sorrow* is the second single from out cold, taken from the debut album *invasion of love*. the single is as a limited 12 inch remix ep featuring a remix of the single by the invisible, plus album track remixes from ewan pearson (all i want) and craig bratley (synchronised).

mobach drops his lush melodic debut album cold rain on syncom data records. four years after his metrobots twelve inch mobach delves deeper into his unique hybrid form of techno, house, electro, dub and downbeat experimental electronics. ten tracks full of infectious melodies, clever beats and weird soundscaping that creates this typical mobach audiosyncratic world, probably best reflected in the beautiful artwork, also from the hand of the artist.

der vorabtrack made to stray aus dem neuen album cold spring fault less youth schlug in der weltweiten trendszene ein wie der blitz: von pitchfork bis nme, von fact bis resident advisor überschlugen sich die aufgeregten lobeshymnen zum ersten neuen mount kimbie material seit zwei jahren. das visionäre duo, seit seinem debüt als neue vordenker in sachen elektronischer musik anerkannt, hat die schwammige schublade des post-dubstep endgültig verlassen und entflieht mit live-instrumentierung, warmen keyboardsounds und geerdeten schlagzeugbeats der enge des dance/electro-kontextes. auch die verpflichtung des enigmatischen vokalisten king krule dürfte ihren anteil daran haben. die elf neuen mount kimbie tracks wirken reifer, selbstbewusster und noch mutiger, und ihr wechsel zu warp wird ihre entwicklung hin zu noch ganz anderen klanggefilden, kontexten und konstellationen weiter beflügeln.

knox is the band brainchild of brother-sister duo nic and eliza coolidge. hailing from boston and new york, the siblings released their second ep, here, on december 3rd, and it is a big step forward for the band. formed less than two years ago, in march 2011, knox finds themselves working with the likes of john tejada and kuxxan suum on this release, and the outcome is stunning. here is five-song set full of ice and echoes. it runs as close to the third rail of impersonation, but flies away so quickly that knox sounds contextual and perfectly fresh. the influences from james blake is clear: the swooping, bomber bass and half-timey compressed dub beats, here could also easily be an inventive b-side to the latest how to dress well album. but, with the limited scale, interspersed remixes and foundling status in the scene, i would say it is likely a more impressive feat. the ep as a whole is desolate. expansive spaces filled with cold little beats and vocal washes, exploring in the course of five songs an icescape aesthetic with a sense of place usually reserved for full-length albums. the remixes blend so seamlessly that i didnt even realize they were during my first, casual listen.

after a short hiatus, self defence records is back with a vengeance and unleashes a powerful 2 tracker on the dancefloor. backslash is the new project of alessandro bocci, aka m16.

die zweite 7inch-auskopplung aus dem aktuellen album >i predict a graceful expulsion< von cold specks auf mute. die neue single >hector< setzt ihren doom soul erneut perfekt um, handelt der song doch vom imaginären freund bzw. von einem dämonen namens hector. >i want this song to scare people.< so al spx über >hector<. wenn die songs so eisig und zugleich warm klingen wie hier, lassen wir uns gerne angst einjagen.
