panorama bar resident nick ho&#776,,,,,ppner gets to work on his second solo album on ostgut ton, connecting the territories of house music with the ease of alt-pop. work as in labor. an axiom that fuels the capitalist system just as the techno/house scene economy says that one needs to keep oneself busy to make a living. as a musician, things are complicated of course. itÕs a long way from the romantic idea of creating music simply for the sake of art to becoming a full time musician. those who have accomplished this feat often find themselves in a professional loop of writing the music, producing it, promoting it (with an info text like this), releasing it and then hopefully selling it. after leaving his full time job as ostgut tonÕs label manager in 2012, nick ho&#776,,,,,ppner went fully freelance, focusing on his musically diverse, deep and dynamic djing in and outside berghainÕs panorama bar, but more importantly spending more time in the studio. the result was his critically acclaimed debut album folk (ostgut ton, 2015), various 12Ò releases and remixes, and now his sophomore lp, work, which, more than ever, lays out his refined production skills and his talent to work the machines until they reveal their inner ghosts: nine new songs that now dodge the dance floor, then fully embrace it.

the techno revolution 30 years ago, where boundaries, walls and our own guarded natures came crumbling down? the archaic establishment-challenging attitude and forthright energy of the punks? the long-awaited eruption of gay culture that had burned and yearned since the dawn of mankind? dare you travel even further back? rewind two hundred years to the romantic revolution where men like the blitzed berloiz helped us transcend our physical limitations for suspended moments of fantastique disbeliefÉ all of these moments have shaped us, our music and our culture. each movement comprising artists who like us right now are trying to make sense of the uncertain world, the chaotic present and the fearful future. artists like hell. welcome to the futureÉreflecting over his participation and contribution to myriad cultural movements since the late 70s, his passion of ever-evolving musical form and our current socialpolitical landscape, hell taps into our collective rich histories, our combined fears and our mutual desires to create his most personal, ambitious and thought provoking body of work to date: zukunftsmusik. his fifth studio album zukunftsmusik fuses some of hellÕs strong signature motifs (his passion for subversion, his great kosmiche canvases, sudden throbbing bursts of dancefloor dynamism, subtle songcraft) yet it sounds unlike anything hell has ever created before. there are very few big club singles. a delicate balance of classical dramatic orchestral tension and evocative futuristic synthesis runs throughout. dark and light, hope and fear, fast and slow, day and night.over the course of one hour helmut josef geier invites you on a musical trip of a lifetime his lifetime, your lifetime, musicÕs lifetime.

there arenÕt many artists that can lay claim to having put out records on labels as divergent as rough trade and john talabotÕs hivern discs. perhaps this is because few artists express such genuine diversity in their musical tastes and creative explorations as david kitt. since the turn of the decade as new jackson he has mined a seam of driving, ghostly house to run parallel with his solo strand of ambient folk electronica. his debut release in 2011 the night mail on pogo channeled early record collection heroes aphex twin and orbital through to drexciya and projekt pm but had one foot firmly in the 21st century beaming in like some futuristic cyberballad. on the flip side hussle free had that mix of house and boogie sensibilities with dark and dusty synths and vocoder that would become a signature. this was followed by acclaimed releases on hivern, permanent vacation, major problems, apartment and most recently cin cin. his debut album set for release on all city in may was recorded in kittÕs bedroom studio overlooking dublin bay, its nocturnal hues very much a product of the nightshift often working on headphones with the rest of his housemates fast asleep. it takes full advantage of the scope of the lp format, ebbing and flowing between deep house club ready gems and more restrained and meditative beatless moments for the morning after. the recording process yielded many eureka moments with kitt finally nailing sounds that had hitherto proved elusive.

at the end of august, sound artists and producers drvg cvltvre, strict nurse, staplerfahrer and pim kersten examined the audio capabilities of a huge steel art structure. in a 5 hour session they scraped, pushed, hit, wiped, connected and kissed the steel rings. everything was recorded and these three tracks are the results of those sessions. they were recorded live in park 013, where the iconostase was housed and which adds a sea of dark reverb to the sounds of the steel rings

Ôjoy is bbfs fourth album and the first one to be truly vocalist-focused and song-centric. with the help of canadian poet-singer beaver sheppard who played an prominent role the composition, bbf explore what the band-members describe as Ôpost-religious themes, such as struggling to find joy in times of uncertainty and instability. this makes it without any doubt bbfs Ônietzsche album. following on from their latest album Ômiami (2013) bbf keeps moving away from the dark mood of their early releases and the image of a Ôclassical new music ensemble to resemble more closely an Ôexperimental rock band. with much more grit and growl than before, they draw upon genres and styles that are not conventionally associated with joy: krautrock, punk, drumnbass, indie rock, new wave, and pretty much every other Ô-wave from the 80s. with each track offering a contrasting combination of styles and genres, bff succeed in devoting a whole album to a single feeling without making it either monotone or clichŽ. instead, they build on euphoria to expand and enrich electronic musics emotional range

london born d. lean lives in the windswept swedish countryside on the outskirts of stockholm. his surroundings have a notable influence on the sound of the autoreply music boss. expansive and absorbing techno with a nod to the classic sounds and techniques of the genre. after two excellent 10inch singles and a remix of ken ishii and romboy s single taiyo, lean released an appetiser ahead of this double cd album of the same name, time tourism. this long player is a classy, deep and delicate dark electronica album in the tradition of detroit techno, which gets taken on a trippy, tracky and repetitive journey.

juan atkins and moritz von oswald Ð the two indispensable protagonists of the electric garden Ð plug back into the wilderness. transport Ð the new full length effort of the borderland collaborative project Ð brings together a new set of studio-refined sequences aimed at colonizing some of the dark energy that pulsates through those areas that are thoroughly electrified, even if not Ôon the gridÕ.
the detroit-berlin axis triangulates to a third point which, like the atomic particle that lives in two places at once, flickers between a form of techno-charged ambience and a futuristic club-jazz which cannot be broken down into constitutive parts. borderland remains caught in a state of enraptured stillness, invisibly moving between every imagined future for electronic sound making. the result: a font from which springs serene and exhilarating musical ideas that vibrate with refined energy for sixty seconds in every minute.

dave clarke, britisches techno-urgestein der ersten stunde, trŠgt seine spannendsten remixes seiner jŸngsten, amsterdamer schaffensphase auf einem album zusammen. wie Ÿblich ist die vielfalt der original interpeten bemerkenswert und reicht von punk bis new beat und von aktuellen hip artists bis leider lŠngst aufgelšsten bands. dave clarke ist bekannt dafŸr, die original-intention der kŸnstler stets beizubehalten, obwohl er den tracks neue gewŠnder von techno bis electro, von aalglatt bis futuristisch und von dark bis heavy verpasst, was seine remixes fŸr fischerspooner oder depeche mode zu zeitlosen kult klassikern werden lie§. die soundpalette der kollektion charcoal eyes: a selection of remixes from amsterdam deckt diese gesamte stilistische bandbreite hervorragend ab.

as one of the pioneers of the signature hospital records sound logistics already has an impressive succession of albums, eps, collaborations and remixes in his repertoire. fortunately for us heÕs adding one more to the list with his incredible sixth studio album, Ôelectric sunÕ filled with jungle flavoured rollers, garage-inspired chop-ups, down tempo head-nodders, swirling synths and merciless subs.
the double vinyl comes in a gatefold sleeve with album-cd included.

things start off in spectacular fashion with the cute and upbeat spiritual encounter before settling into some funky and mysterious electro with bombay mix. hard copy is reminiscent of the early hi nrg vibes of bobby orlando or gino soccio but woolly hat and parallel universes are funky, fun loving 4/4 electro grooves that are more typical of the dmx sound. he saves the best for last though, with some darker excursions such as the high octane, telex sounding computational paradigm shift and the smack electro closer black poppy. with electro making an obvious comeback.

brooklyn duo beacon explore the dark side of sweet melody with a sound thats as seductive as it is subtly discomfiting. thomas mullarney iii and jacob gossett are unstoppable. the new york artists, collectively known as beacon, have been on a productive hot streak since 2012, and their efforts continue to pay off. when we werent writing, mullarney starts, we hit the road and didnt really look back. we toured the us five times since the ways we separate came out, building this project the old-fashioned way. and beacons natural, time-tested process has brought us escapements, their sophomore album for ghostly. we went into this feeling liberated, continues the singer/producer, and gossett seems to echo his thought: this record is in part our attempt to formulate what beacon is going to look and sound like going forward.

imagine bringing together two distinct but complementary musical talents, already established as composers and producers in their own right, one male - with years as a performer on the festival and club circuit behind him - and one female - a rising star with a sirens voice, a maverick committed to live performance. imagine their astonishing sound: an intoxicating concoction of driving rhythms, lush synths, psychedelic effects and instantly memorable hooks drenched in a dark atmosphere of melancholy and brooding beauty.

the latest release by the parisian label is thanks to a fluke find by an antinote family member, who by pure chance, unearthed an unreleased guitar and synth musical jewel from italy circa 1984. an until now unknown collaboration between a guitar maestro, composer of contemporary dance scores with a gifted electronic music composer. cd version with bonus track- big tip!

itÕs the season of the juiciest, sweetest fruit, of shorts, tank tops and thongs, the time of year when you look at life through a dark pair of sunglasses. summer is also the time of year when lovers of soul, disco, funk, bossa, jazz and other similar grooves get together to enjoy the sunny vibrations sampled by guts and mambo from the world over.

2methyls first full length album is both a feast for the dancefloor and an example of creativity. following the orb ep, layer8 is a hard, fast album of futuristic dark drum n bass. but it is also an example of how to bring this genre forward while staying true to its energy. very complex and detailed, the nine tracks of this album play with the rules of modern days drum n bass and burst out of their restraints, resulting in an album whose horizon is beyond the dancefloor and which impresses by its magnitude and originality.

cocoon recordings presents a new mix-compilation and it is number 49!!! more than that it is the 10th edition of the label-inhouse-compilation-series mixed by chris tietjen and last but not least it will be the final chapter of this ten years lasting journey.

opfer is a new project by dutch artist ian martin and belgian artist sebastien crusener and monument is their first album. ian martin needs no introduction to fans of adventurous electronic music. his versatile style allowed him to release on illustrious labels such as bunker, abstract forms or further records. sebastien crusener has provided all source material in form of field recordings for their project and ian modelled a abstract, minimal and dark ambient album that showcases a bleakness and almost disturbing coldness but yet makes you feel safely encapsulated in a world of comfort and strange beauty. additionally sebastien has kindly provided some wonderful poetry that gives you more insight into the world of opfer. dark ambient at its best. 150 manufactured hand numbered cds in slim line dvd case. the first 100 copies include a limited sheet with poetry by sebastien crusene

alec storey (frŸher bekannt als al tourettes) prŠsentiert auf seinem debuetalbum auf houndstooth psychedelisch-inspirierte, bassige dark electronica. double divide ist ein komplexes werk, inspiriert von liebe und emotion. es ist ein werk voller gegensŠtze, paradoxien und idiosynkrasien. ein mix aus hochintensiver, beatgetriebener musik, abenteurlichen clubtunes, die storeys basswurzeln belegen, gleichzeitig aber auch durch gefŸhlsgeladene ambientpassagen aus komplex-rhythmischen strukturen und melodisch emotionalen passagen ausbalanciert werden.

bonus instrumentals of said vocal tracks what does a rave sound like the next day? the strobe lights in a dark warehouse, the pounding kick, the blur of ecstatic faces lead to a morning-after emptiness, all fade into memories of the friends you once had. on ode, tin man (proper name johannes auvinen) explores this feeling, offering tracks which possess an exhausted joy, the aural equivalent of the stretch of time beginning when the last record is played and stretching on towards the doleful contemplation of last nightÕs unmade sheets. appropriately, tin mans melancholic dance music is more club-ready than ever.

after hyperdubs first compilation of 10th anniversary dancefloor heaters, -hyperdub 10.2- features some of the labels best songs of the last five years or so. hyperdub is often associated with dark and brooding instrumental music, however, this mid-summer collection sheds some sunlight over that dread filled reputation, showcasing an underrated cast of talented songwriters, vocalists and producers. the album is laced with brand new cuts from kode9, cooly g, morgan zarate feauring. eska and ghostface killah, jessy lanza, dean blunt & inga copeland, and dva featuring zaki ibrahim. ranging from melancholy r&b, garage, funk, footwork and icy pop, -10.2- covers this overlooked side of the labels back catalogue. the album opens with dean blunt & inga copeland-s grime lullaby signal 2012, one of their final collaborations, moving into burials dubbed-out r&b on shell of light from his seminal album untrue, and jessy lanzas stand-out cut 5785021, before sliding into the digi dub meets r & b slow jam of south londons cooly g with obsessed. king britt features next, with his fhloston paradigm project, on the deeply emotive never defeated- featuring rachel claudio. after their collaboration on his pretty ugly album, dva is joined again by south african singer zaki ibrahim with their brand new summery mutant garage track solid. dam funk jumps on ikonikas funk bomb -mr. cake-, adding a fun, party vocal. continuing the -80s funk vibe is morgan zarate and roses gabors ice cold prince-influenced pusher taker, the lead track from his 2013 ep. jessy lanza contributes some more sparkling r&b with the brand new you and me, followed by another track from morgan zarate, a lost dub featuring the soulful eska and wu tang clans ghostface killah. the tempo raises in the final stretch of the album with dvas and fatimas collaboration just vybe, terror danjah & melekas shimmering r&g cut you make me feel and the 160 bpm soul of the late dj rashads only one from his acclaimed double cup album. the cd closes with the lo-fi, bashy mutation of kode9 & copelands lies lies. 10.2 calls on hyperdubs sirens to balance the moody energy of 10.1 with fourteen slices of hyper soul. let them lead you astray

jerome derradjis past compilations, 122 bpm: the birth of house music, in the dark: the soul of detroit & the american boogie down have received widespread critical acclaim and were great sellers in north america, europe and japan. chicagos original house music is seeing a huge resurgence of popularity around the world as proven by the recent reissue compilations on strut, soul jazz, demon and more. bang the box! is part 2 of a 2 series compilation, on the work of matt warren and miguel garcia. includes 14 unreleased tracks

man is a rope is not a band but rather a process developed by new york songwriter / producer / artist, evan t. q. kreeger. using live instrumental and vocal performances with analog effects to make electronic hybrid music rather than employing virtuals, loops or samples, man is a rope creates its own unique dark dynamics and complex churns which invoke elements from no wave, early mute/4ad, rowland s. howard, the cabs, detroit / birmingham techno, a certain ratio, the swans, coil, 70s crimson, and film music. these works are composed in parallel with video treatments and storyboard development. from conception, audio is forever bonded to its symbiotic images.

jim coles has spent the past three years refining a unique sound as om unit via collaborations with machinedrum on planet mu, releases on goldies metalheadz, dbridges exit records and civil music, his own cosmic bridge label and the short-lived phillip d. kick alias that fleshed out the links between chicagos footwork, jungle and slow/fast. the confluence of all this work takes full flight on threads.

nic tvg, aka producer nic taylor, has been lurking in the shadows since 2010, occasionally stepping forward to deliver decidedly dark, murky and unusual blends of drum and bass, abstract electronica and leftfield beats.

capsize recovery takes the listener on a ride through a very dark universe of gloomy sounds and atmospheres. the eight rather longish tracks of the album are characterized by senkings epic signature sounds - creepy hovering bass lines, clean and slowed down drums, paired with oscillating and sometimes fierce synth melodies and shots. with his extremely deep and dubby arrangements that explore the depths and abysses of bass heavy music, he again is able to create soundscapes that convey a subtle sense of unease or even fear, as if they were the soundtrack to a mysterious and disturbing film

while >sweet nothings< was a balancing act between clubsound and listening-electronica the duo is now turning its back on the dancefloor, to take the listener on an accustic tour through their personal amber room. with their chamber-electro mix, containing characteristics of dubstep, catchy pop-elements, classical string arrangements and and a singer/songwriter like intimacy, they achieve to create new sound-rooms
