dub // reggae

mondo präsentiert die vinyl-erstveröffentlichung des soundtracks von bear mccreary zum us-spielfilm “10 cloverfield lane” des regisseurs dan trachtenberg aus 2016 mit mary elizabeth winstead und john goodman in den hauptrollen. schwarzes 180g doppelvinyl mit liner notes des komponisten.

steinzeit concludes the mrt grey series. the duo is comprised of hansruedi schnuriger, one half of echo 106, and bjorn magnusson. they recorded these three tracks in a weekend s time inside magnusson studio, which is an abandoned factory in the middle of nowhere, in switzerland, using bare concrete walls as an echo chamber. the pace is slow, atmosphere is bleak, tone is melancholic, drums are evil. it reflects how switzerland feels in winter. lonely, and this is true, like the name of the tracks.

a sagittariun continues to release primarily on his own elastic dreams label, and the magick box ep features four tracks that come nearly 12 months on from the uncompromising techno of the contortion/concrete walls single and the second full length album odyssey, elasticity. taking in pacey techno cuts curviture and kobalt, cruising electro vibes on floating on salt water’ and wigged out industrial funk on bleepanomix, once again the archer delivers a varied collection of new tracks on the ep. vital sales points: previous singles on secretsundaze, hypercolour and elastic dreams were very well received - a sagittariuns second album, elasticity, was released in april 2016 to glowing reviews and polled in the mojo magazine top 5 electronic albums of the year

the third release on ascorbites own corseque records is not for the faint-hearted. advance the flight and inadequate demeanor are clearly twins, delivered from the darkest corners of ascorbite’s mind. the bold, pounding quality of the ep brings adam x or grovskopa to mind but ascorbite has a dystopian touch that’s entirely his own. advance the flight is like a battle track for an intergalactic armada being attacked by an infinite horde of swarming space ants. inadequate demeanor, on the other hand, is a grim steampunk fantasy of a black, shining locomotive plainly out of control, raging on red hot rails towards the end of the line. however, while both tracks are rough and unforgiving, ascorbite manages to invigorate them by the use of subtle melancholic atmospheres – like rainy skies over a concrete desert. a balance between brutalism and vitality. a trademark of ascorbite and corseque records.

the 3rd release on bernese imprint bons vivants records by kohn and gray chalk is traveling the path of quite some psychedelic house and techno area.

cougouyou ist ein plattenladen in perpignan, südfrankreich, sowie ein sublabel von staubgold. auf diesem veröffentlicht markus dettmer limitierte 7’’es mit regionalbezug. gewöhnlich kommen südfranzösische bzw. katalonische bands mit exklusiven neuen stücken zum zug. -lettre À monsieur le chef de gare de la tour de carol- macht davon eine doppelte ausnahme, denn weder stammt die 1939 geborene avantgarde-musikerin, autorin und schauspielerin brigitte fontaine aus der region, noch ist ihr musique-concrète-stück neu. es erschien bereits 1969 auf dem album -comme À la radio- und collagiert verfremdete tonfetzen des bahnhofsvorstehers von latour-de-carol, einem auf 1200 meter höhe gelegenen Örtchens in den pyrenäen. die single wird durch zwei tracks des in perpignan ansässigen minimalkomponisten monsieurdurand ergänzt. seine beiden stücke -un mauvais champignon- und -la nausée (extrait)- stehen ebenfalls der musique concrète nahe und basieren auf field recordings.

pure, beyond reproach is the new studio album from vibrational club artist egyptrixx. new sensations + new energy, jeep music for a saturn moon. an exercise in physical sound and granular symbolism, this record suggests a parallel between the total impact of human tendency towards absolute loyalty and an imagined, sub-threshold percussion of collisions among all the oceanic micro-plastics.
the aesthetic is pacific litter clank, chill torrents and artificial triumphalism...actual glow. repetition apes tidal energy, a reminder of the revolutionary capability of sound. splashing, pounding, dripping, phasing. glinted piles of shatter swept back and forth - crystal ammunition // liquid contemplation. anodyne ammo mimics the erasure of ethics via dispersion, backlit by the low key petroleum tangle of bffs/oblivion.
2x12 inch silver vinyl lp featuring original artwork by anf and design by olenka szymonski

dj support from brackles and peverelist. samrai is a founding member of swing ting, a dj and production squad behind club nights of the same name in manchester. they have two 12inches to their name on fat city (head gone and creepin) as well as remixes for mosca, murlo and beneath. riddim trax is samrais first solo release. his riddims are deceptively simple fusions taking in a spectrum of soundsystem influences and uk dance music, including dancehall, soca, afrobeats and uk garage. the ep opens with the summery let it ride, featuring swing ting mc mr fox s vocal in classic singjay mode. instrumental version responsibility riddim follows, before the b-side plunges into more rugged territory with problematic riddim and the brutal concrete riddim.

savage grounds return to lux rec for the third time, with their third record. atrocities comes after unpleasant music for unpleasant people, released in 2015, and over fences, 2014. it is, as much as the previous 2, the result of investigations in music, live, composed with a minimum amount of instruments. the duo, comprised of cco and daniele cosmo, worked with a roland 606, a roland 909 and a modular synthesiser. experimenting with fm modulation and loose sequences. the result is concrete noise, anger, ghostly voices, and above all, the sheer conscience of human failures. atrocities marks number 30 in the lux rec catalogue. it comes as a 12inch + 7inch package.

following on from 2015 s mammoth release, work them records call in flexxseal boss christopher joseph, parisian duo behzad & amarou and label founder spencer parker to remix caiazzo the dredge ep. punchy kicks and eerie drones initiate christopher josephs recreation of lowbrow as numerous dusky atmospherics ebb in and out of the mix. next up, renowned concrete paris residents behzad & amarou deliver a mesmerising slice of techno with intricate percussion, floating pads and metallic aesthetics in their remix of dredge. on the b-side, work thems spencer parker presents two versions of refraction that emphasise ample low-end, sinister whirrs and an undulating synth that will continue to shake clubs throughout the future.

after releases on fxhe, deeplabs, and planet-e, brian kage returns with “the arc ep,” a new record on his new label, michigander. “the arc ep” is dedicated to celebrating hopeful and inspiring times in the city of detroit. the arc - dark minor chord stabs emerge and echo around a solid concrete foundation of classic 909 style drum patterns and deep pulsating bassline hits. the structure builds until giving way to a break of lush symphonic strings that pay tribute to detroit in a nostalgic manner. the arc (stringless mix) has been crafted for creating and releasing cascades of tension in the darkest of warehouses. d drive – a saturated synth lead effortlessly bounces through two octaves in a classic groove that is unmistakably from an alternative universe where the 80s never ended. this feel-good jam will get even the toughest of crowds smiling and rocking out. transcending – this contemplative soundscape flings percussive hisses rippling through a deep melodic realm. an atmosphere of timeless synthesis provides reassurance that it was a great decision to come out wearing comfortable shoes and dressed to sweat.

to celebrate this years record store day/black friday, coalmine records is pleased to release a special-edition 7 inch version of heltah skeltahs previously digital-only slapper, midnight madness, featuring dj revolution. as fans of the duo already know, the circa-2009 track is pure flames, and brimming with hilarious bad-guy lyricism from ruck (aka the late sean price), and his partner in rhyme, rock. the two absolutely let loose over shukos funky instrumental, as ruck drops concrete flows while rock communicates with animals.

after a splendid, sought after 12- on pyramids of mars, an already expensive edits split ep with red axes and his highly original and acclaimed self released debut album -don t touch my sister-, rouge mecanique delivers a stone cold classic ep for discos capablanca. the psychedelic steady muscle of all will be changed aims to destroy visionary dance floors. sans scrupules is the most surprising acid banger you will likely hear this year. ampedusa / xaver defies description and its mutant sound could evoque ecstatic early minimal house references, kraut and concrete music. can i say is simply put the most elegant, languid way to say goodbye to an ep that exudes sheer brilliance and character. housed in hand silkscreened sleeves with art by capablanca. timeless applies here.

the new offshoot of isaiah tapes - baptismo alpinismo - presents brooding soundscapes in a 7-inch red-marbled cut. the two pieces by arnheim work as soundtracks for individuals braving themselves towards self discovery within the structures of the concrete jungles.

tang breaks out a little-used alias, transmitting from the concrete jungle, audio hallucinogens changes thoughts. the “habit” is a subtle rumbling bass line evolving into a fluid, acidic language, which only crickets would understand.

carousel and brenda records veteran mike davis comes correct with some of his best tracks to date. heavy, yet elusive and original jams that fall somewhere between berghain peak hour and your weird uncle s birthday bash at the bowling alley with his stoner proto techno friends.

this one goes out to all the city people. to those who get inspired by the beauty of the reflections that the urban evening sun paints onto naked concrete. to those who know that there is a soul in all the things. we are with you.

cbrb s latest triptych for phantasy takes their sound into a more dystopian direction, a world of concrete shopping centres, the occult and physically irresistible repetition. the title track “mecanique sauvage” is a muscular industrial / outsider house track, a stop start rollercoaster that constantly intensifies. one part a brutal exercise in poise and restraint, and one part undiluted disco excess. a contradictory beast of a track. something of a epic (at over 8 mins long) “children of the monolith” drops the tempo to 100 bpm and takes the listener on a very different kind of trip. a widescreen composite of tribal drums, sinister synths and the beguiling mantras of an arcane cult. don t touch the brown acid... “soda jerk” is the everything but the kitchen sink moment on the ep, a hymn to over indulgence. unhinged electronic body music, a gloriously relentless assault on the senses. resistance is futile!

quanta records’ third release, correspondances, is a mini lp by aeon that combines experimental techno, ambient and musique concrète elements. the tracks of the album communicate through similar sounds, noises and rhythmic patterns, but while atmospheres diverge, there is a constant exchange from cold and industrial to solar and melodious so as to form a complex and balanced ensemble.
aeon’s has placed randomness at the centre of his creative process. computing and random programming have allowed the artist to explore new structures and to no longer simply consider a glitch as an error, but rather as a primal source of novel sound.

vaghe is a man of few words. he wanders, seemingly endlessly, through a lonely, gargantuan labyrinth of concrete and steel, fighting off ghosts and other futuristic nightmares, searching only for something called the full stream ahead. who is this quiet, determined man and what are these ghosts he seeks? the small communities he finds tucked into the crevices of this towering, dystopic ruin hardly give him leads on his treasure, driving him to find larger enclaves of civilization where people can reveal more about the world he lives in and the quarry he seeks. if vaghe is going to find the treasure he seeks, he will need more help and information than the inhabitants of these beleaguered outposts can offer. he needs to find a larger cluster of civilization, but he’ll have to survive the trip to get there, first… following his 2014 ‘sweet sixteen’, and his 2015 ‘abstract speed + sound’ other people is pleased to announce the full stream ahead: the prologue by turin’s daniele mana aka vaghe stelle. previously associated with italian label gang of ducks and a current member of production group one circle with fellow nationals lorenzo senni and a:ra, daniele’s roots in the emerging italian production scene run deep and place him at its center.

tough techno versions, derived from stefan goldmanns synth-heavy a1 film soundtrack. five cuts remixed into the mighty 4/4 grid (mostly). free wheeling hardware synthesis and heavy-handed beats line up for concrete-blasting impact on constructor and a-drive. the b2s spikes is a more loose affair around a scintillating analogue synth riff. contrastingly, inward slope features a warped beat layout and wavetable splashes, sounding like a weeping robot fighting with a cat. roadside lot is a soothing ambient fm tech tool. thats it. on to the next fifty.

forthcoming on claque the remixes of donato dozzy’s “cassandra” which was, without question, one of 2015’s most enduring success stories techno.
a side with techno twists from skudge. b side with fred p. and his own trademark concrete detroitian and last but not least, dj jus-ed steps up with the final re-shape of the show.
amazing three different jobs that continue the legacy of cassandra throughout 2016.

ukrainian techno artist yan cook is swiftly turning into one of planet rhythm’s usual suspects. the follow up to this years xx lp comes in the form of a 12” package called “loophole ep” 4 deep and dark techno cuts that represent the yan cook sound to the fullest. expect swells, cleverly placed arps that are all part of his rhythm driven signature sound.

split with two of the heaviest hitters in the field of noise techno. belgium s damaskin (also releasing as seraphim rytm) has been dropping noisey, abstract techno bombs on unknown precept and concrete. he presents a long, deep track here called signal . countered by upcoming dutch producer cs2 (aka core shift), coming from a sound design and noise background, he focusses his sound on a hypnotic rhythm, slowly building a wall of sound.

yaqaza is their long-awaited vinyl debut. the duo surprises with a multicoloured, mystic and intriguing collage of deconstructed pop hits, italian music concrète, king tubby-like dub and algerian rai.

the label offers to the artists involved in the project the possibility to gather and experiment a unique sound setting. inside a large concrete silo, the sound endlessly twirl sand spins around. a narrow door made of cast iron gives access to this cylindrical space where everything is surrounded by a red glowing darkness.the sound experience is intro-spective and utterly physical.these moments of residenciesunfold as timeless wanderings within the circovonlutions of this vibratile space our first issue is the inauguration of different musicians matches, whom, so far, never had collaborated together.

after his last year debut on fasrat das komplex is on fire - after eps for young adults and pets recordings here he is again with a brand new 12- showing his versatility and ability to seamlessly blend multiple genres. all tracks on -pudding- show clearly his dub and reggae influences applied to a light as a feather deep house rhythm frame, subtly infused with cosmic stylings and some synthpop nostalgia. at the same time, solid grooves carry das komplex trademark melodic hooks - resulting in proper heads music that would work perfectly on any dancefloor - and any radio alike. -pudding- sounds like a perfect teaser for polish producer s debut artist album - due later this year on fasrat.

nice price deal !!! a new collaboration in the highgrade mansion.todd bodine, one of highgrade s most profilic djs and producers, teams up for this perfect little joint with highgrade debut ludwig coenen, who seems to be willing to conquer from scratch. from the very first second, these three trax pave the way for a rockin, totally mad yet very structured electronic desaster, which is not easy to categorize musically, as it surely goes beyond your typical (post-)minimal track. a sure shot for all advanced djs with balls and brains, trippy, groovy as hell and flashing when least expected

nice price deal !!! magic pop hotel invites you on a luminous voyage through the vegetal dreamscape of >flowers<, the first single from the album. floating somewhere between pop and trip-hop, magic pop hotel reaches through mysterious atmospheres and creeping climates, spinning with freedom. on this record, the poetic universe of magic pop hotel is explored by the artists the micronauts, junesex, and betsyapolis. each remix takes hold of the nebulous center of the song and extends it in a different direction. with the micronauts remix, christophe monier pours his neo-80s space disco honey all over the dance floor. an intoxicating sound serum that will have bees swarming to the club for eternal youth. the junesex remix draws on the trip hop inspiration of magic pop hotel to grow heavy dub blossoms through the cracks in the concrete. the vibrations dig deep into the most fertile emotions. the betsyapolis remix plucks a sweet, ripe fruit and spins it fresh and juicy, playing with the airy pop goodness of >flowers<

reissue of the 1978 album from bob marley & the wailers on 180 gram double vinyl

new interplanetary melodies is a series of phonographic editions committed to free experimental music: it tells about vibes floating over time and space, hybrid energies through harmonies and contrasts, concrete forces and metaphysical resonances, earthly and otherworldly origins of inspiration, organic feelings and abstract dreams, ancestral echoes and futuristic outlooks, sonic symbolism painting sceneries in human spirits, a ritual meaning of creating and relishing music ...
the sound radiation can take to other possible dimensions, to most recondite places of mind and soul, or very far away across stellar directions.
how the sound impressed on analogue substance in past times is able to render vibes from the future is well explained by the instinctive recordings of mayo soulomon in this first issue of new interplanetary melodies.

ovum welcomes leftbank records co-boss dudley strangeways: a uk house and techno dj rooted with serious residency stripes at the legendary back to the future parties and appearances at the likes of boiler room. hot off the back of releases on stardub, little helpers and made of concrete comes his ovum debut, three tracks made constructed for one sole purpose… melting minds in the darkest of rooms. keep it clean is twistedly simple, a rump-busting roll in the drum department and paranormal pad leave space for a precision tuned tone that warps with the gravitas of a life support machine. sinewy, cold and deliciously disconcerting, dudley ensures funk and focus with delicately placed rhythmic elements and constant fluctuations. next we find ourselves breaking into an early 90s warehouse as transition whisks us on an acid trip with flurries of jack and a lean lead line that slithers through the ever-mutating drums and occasional fx hailstorms. devilishly futuristic and tailored for those deep long blends, the stripped back extensive nature of this guarantees mixing bliss. truly, tracks built by a dj, for djs. don t let this one slip…

sound and rhythm are effective means of individuals self-defence in face of chaotic steamroller of everyday life. hiding in a familiar yet simultaneously hardly recognisable parallel space does not have to result from the need of escaping the world or nurturing one’s ego. too many times to mention, music appearing under recognition imprint served as a peculiar type of a vehicle of survival and a tool for internal transformation. hideland, new record by polish electronic music producer jacek sienkiewicz is released precisely year after drifting, which largely explored tropes of classical club techno sound. eight (nine in extended cd version) tracks comprising this album go beyond easy-to-pigeonhole genres, creating a microcosm of utopian sound constructs. surprisingly unobvious and precisely composed release could be fascinating both for loyal fans and for new listeners looking for threads of experimentalism. its another intriguing proposal in jacek sienkiewiczs growing discography, but above all - a laboratory where dreams and artistic visions metamorphose into concrete reality.

things are getting grim. the good guys and the bad are determined to settle their escalating dispute in the ring. after the bookies have taken their bets, the bad guys are taking the upper hand in the first few rounds. the nefarious comment about their beloved mother seems to have sparked uncontrollable rage in the pair. dont rule out the good guys just yet though, as they seem to be plotting something their opponents from the dark side wont see coming. for the second outing in the quartet series, french fry and parisian concrete resident s3a (sampling as a n art, faces) infuses the good guys with some positive energy.

new emmanuel top label. lost in berlin is a mechanical angry monster with multiple arms that swings around for destruction. it’s unstoppable for words, you have to accept the fact that you have been hit by a concrete wall. what i love in records is the menace inside it that builds up. the impossible energy that drags you in to this tunnel of a white dimension with grey electric colors. bipolaire: it all starts with a kick, not a simple kick but a et kick and before you know it you are struck by lightning. the subs are playing with you, simple but again with atomic temperature. the acid sound that hits you is never going to surrender his inferior temper. capture: only that words remind me of the spirit capture and it’s not easy make an equivalent of the original that is not even made with the inspiration of the mod wheel. it’s not just a wicked intro that can take you to different roads. you can decide what way you will take but be careful with what comes next.

nice price deal !!! bad-mannered, fcked up club trax from melbournes nerve. stomping, nocturnal techno backed with a photek-meets-sunn o) terror stepper. for fans of regis, emptyset and blackest ever black
