>a correction< is the new album from fieldhead and continues the dusty, bereft sounds of previous releases – they shook hands for hours (home assembly 2009) and riser (gizeh 2010). 2010 saw paul elam depart the uk for vancouver, canada and there is no doubt that the vast northern candian landscapes have influenced the new fieldhead material. the familiar tape hiss, scratchy, decaying atmospheres remain in place but with a correction elam has managed to sculpt a vaster, more expansive palate of sounds. minimalistic on first listen, a correction is a record which slowly unfurls on multiple listens to reveal subtle melodies and details that dont distract from the overal ambience but in fact set apart fieldheads music from many other, safer artists within the genre.

flying lotus alben sind für metaphysiker puzzleteile auf dem weg zur weltformel und für normalhörer grandiose geistererscheinungen. sein neues werk, eine kollage aus mystischen zuständen, träumen und schlafliedern, wirkt wie eine nachtreise. das aufeinanderprallen von kosmischen bassgewichten und computerisierten arrangements klingt musikalisch griffig wie nie zuvor, was auf eine beträchtliche entwicklung als produzent und komponist hindeutet, wie auch auf stets neu spriessende entwürfe von songfundamenten. bei der realisierung wirkten seine beiden gesangsmusen niki randa und laura darlington mit, thom yorke (radiohead) sowie die queen of leftfield r&b, erykah badu. flying lotus unternimmt seine intellektuellen sprünge, ohne dabei musikalische details wie das gewicht einer bassline oder den swing eines drumbeats zu vernachlässigen, so wie es viele master der soulmusik seit jahrzehnten vor ihm tun. >until the quiet comes< folgt dieser tradition, während es neue pfade für sich eröffnet - eine kombination, die einen wahren klassiker ausmacht!

>the fall of the empire< is a tough and unyielding release that continues both pfirter and mindtrip s run of form. >the fall of the empire is imminent< is raw, powerful and tightly wound. it holds an almost familiar sound, something that brings memories of techno from years gone by, but with the added depth, intricacy and attention to details that juan pablo pfirter lends to all his productions. markus suckut remixes on mt-02 and brings his stripped sound to his rework of >multiverse<. keeping things simplistic and functional, markus finds the groove, toying with bass throughout the track and letting the loop run for near seven minutes, gently tweaking fx and eq in the light-handed and tender manner he become known for.

grey series, an offshot of the already well established m_rec ltd., aims at celebrating the reclusiveness of techno, its core ideas, its attitudes and its most recent mutations. traditions that while remaining, have allowed todays artists to conceive uncompromising and exciting sounds. its first release sees juho kahilainen explore dark and glacial territories. epilogue is the end of the darkest set, with its sinister piano moving slowly on a set of digital sounds meant to shut off any source of light.we heard it coming enhances stripped down techno with echoes of what seems to be field recordings from an unexplored locations.rotko dims the light down with its flirty, crepuscular details. acid and irresistible, its a trip that carries you on and on.the less we try takes a dramatic turn, where a beat that pays tribute to acid sounds encounter a martial soundwave and its tense and dooming melody. grey series is dedicated to everyone who lives techno today, who recognizes that theres a whole array of possibilities to explore, away from whatever the dancefloor requires.

fur the texan, born bryce isbell, extracts minutiae with precision. his compositions, while airily sparse, are saturated with details plucked from broad of landscapes, whether they resemble the texan prairie or the expanses of industrial germany. isbells composite micro-samples are infinitesimal, soaked in breathless allusion and divorced from their context. the crisp, insistently percussive arrangement oscillates like metal shavings manipulated by an unseen magnet. fur has untraditionally tapped into a eu techno mind-meld, a berlin thought-stream. after his early work with neon indian’s alan palomo as ghost hustler, isbell dove deep into minimal sounds that transported listeners closer to inner city detroit than the mid-west. unos first fur ep cocoon follows several years of isbell silence. after a notable debut with lefse, fur submerged below a sea of techno and came up with a deep analog style that has acquired fans in fred p and firecracker records with twisting house like >knots<. a second part in the fur saga on the way, uno has faith this young westerner will be putting a big texan stamp on the house scene to come.

continuing on from the massive kon 12 inch released on basic fingers we welcome back our good friend kok. on the a side koko delivers a real uplifting feel-good disco/boogie scorcher that will make you wish for those hot summer parties. stay with me by norman connors is perhaps not his most known track but we will guarantee this bad boy will be the prime time number for many djs as koko really takes this track to another level. soulfulness at its very best! on the b-side burning up by imagination has, since its release almost 30 years ago ripped up dancefloors all over with its piano chord hook and a steady bassline. this mix is an updated version with lots more production details and plenty of koko flavour. its already been tried and tested in the basic finger kitchen with an exceptional result.

gerardo frisina goes back to the roots of the sound which has made him famous worldwide: the latin sound of classics like >descarga< or >the latin kick< (both previously released on schema). >moderno primitivo< is an ep about the encounter of the ancient afro-cuban tradition (the core of frisinas artistic dna) with a refined electronic taste. this component enriches drums and percussions and gives more edge to the whole production with details like pads and effects. in >moderno primitivo< the latin ensemble headed by frisina takes us into a jam session where percussions, piano and trombone play happily. the latin house mix is a club version where the rhythmic element and the groove take control of the mix. the melody is broken and a hammond plays over a ostinato bass. the flavour is definitely tribal. >cogele el ritmo< is a trip into frisinas latin world. slower than >moderno primitivo<, still has a solid hook to the dance-floor and is a triumph of joy and colour.

the new ep from memoria comes from fast-rising romanian producer vid whose previous outings have come on labels including fear of flying and barraca music. vid (vidum) aka sorin rastoaca is a producer obsessed with nature and organic sounds. his latest release >rebirth<, is stripped but not light on feeling, and mines a vein somewhere between deep house and minimal techno. etime is a fluttery, eerie cut that works on many subtle layers. like the feathery minimal percussion of villalobos, the romanians sounds present like flapping butterfly wings as a kick drum punches out a varied pattern below. poem is a little louder and bolder, with a firm rolling kick drum and drunken, wubby sounds running right through its core. plenty of sonic details flesh out the languorous but slightly tribal groove. rebirth is again about little tiny details and how they evolve with time, but the framework they inhabit this time is deep, late-night house with gentle tinkles on keys coming over like a fluttering candle in the dark. 3729 gets its head down and mines a shifty, itching and tight minimal groove, closing out an ep which shows vid to be a master of working minimum sounds into maximum effects.

it has been half a year since we released the last max cooper ep on traum, so his new finished ep comes in handy for all of his fans and people interested in the grey zone of techno vs. electronica. max coopers new release the >egomodal ep< comes as a 4 tracks ep and adds up to a great piece of music. once again it focuses on dynamics and tangents, along with the concept of complexity and simplicity. the >egomodal ep< stays true to max coopers approach to link a mathematical structure with a simple one. we are happy to say he has succeeded to fuse complexity with variations by still finding time to focus on details and keeping up that nice randomness which makes his music so appealing also for clubbers and djs.

with sa012 dadub carefully collate legacies of philosophical thought and transpose them into a brilliantly deep ep. the vinyl opens with >perseverance< a slick slice of bass that writhes and twists around a syncopated core. on a2 >temptation of maya< seizes at the act of perception and what is captured is perfect for the mellow confusion of a sunday morning. on the flip side the search for transcendence goes further with >beyond the veil< which crackles towards a sense of enlightenment. the ep closes with a golden moment of contentment, >moksha<. the track titles hint at the search for revelation, which is rendered in countless experimental layers and finely wrought details. sa012 is a peek into the conceptual framework that dadub engage with to create their vision. and just as their central image, maya, is intangible in the perceptible universe, the tracks seem to erupt from an equally mystical place: molten, dark and fathomlessly deep.

long time no see but the waiting time is over.yo! announced details about their secondrecord. after the first incredible release by live thugs (from space) with their slomonster exploration ep the new one will be by montana falcons. a newcomer-gang straight from the hoodof nowhere. we met them in our holidays where they guided our pony trekking tour in the mountainsof madison county. a great inspiring day cruising around and seeing nice birds and pretty clouds.at night we sat around the campfire, drank hard alcohol, smoked original montana tobakko, cleanedour weapons and heard these tracks for the first time on their pony-soundsystem. make your own opinion, but they hit us like a bullet. yo!

emergent behaviour is what one might determine the calm before the storm, as we dive into the second instalment of the jupiter cycle, as the drifting ambience and somewhat ominous synths proceed abstract thought, itself a stubborn barrage of hardened electro beats, rigid stabs, crystalizing and melding into an explosive mayhem and of course, the ghost in the machine, if anything a more traditional styled, yet irresistible electro hit. the deep showcases hadamard in a distinctly experimental mode, where all the fine details are tuned to perfection for maximum atmosphere. finally, drifting into the collective and satellite swarm, both gliding onwards and ever deeper into pure ambience, the latter closing piece eloquently preparing the audio stratosphere for the next chapter in the jupiter cycle. special limited edition pack includes the second in a series of collectable posters.

ramona is pretty nervous to welcome a new name to her ever-growing happy family. in fact, its actually an old band member. christian beisswenger alias cb funk alias one half of arto mwambe is not exactly one you would call a stranger. for >77 reasons< he debuts as the citizens band with some novel sounds on risky grounds. in love with details, fragile sounds, little tricks and with a fine ear for the action, the band leader tiptoes into deep bleepy house just enough to call >west 42nd< exactly that. >77 reasons< however plays around with a memorable little melody, a skanking lead and some boom sonics. whatever you want to call it, ramona is fine with it. orson and kane would be proud.

11 track double vinyl album from new mark broom and james ruskin supergroup ! limited initial run on marbled grey vinyl - similar look to the recent sfbsf003 surface 12inch full picture sleeve. the project, knows as the fear ratio, has seen two of the uks finest proponents of no-nonsense, immaculately sculpted techno locked in the studio together. these sessions have already borne three 12 inch titles - no time soon, erotic misery and night nurse – two of which were released on ruskins blueprint records, with the other pressed up on brooms beard man imprint. the fear ratio moniker was adopted following the release of these club-focused 12s, with the album project honing in on more abstract and experimental textures. ruskin revealed details about the project in an interview earlier this year. he said a live fear ratio project was also in the works, with a press release claiming these would commence in 2012. as the fear ratio, broom and ruskin delve into the hinterland of contemporary music. a space where cold atmospheres meet lush melody and tough, yet clipped pulsating beats. from the warm poly-rhythmic funk of >ax< to the deep spatial reverb of >guv 1<, the dub induced strains of >pinhead< and melancholic refrain of >morning blues<, ruskin and broom deliver their new artistic agenda

while dominik eulberg utilized the broader canvas of the album format to develop complex sophisticated compositions, rich of melodies and of intricate details, it was time to boil it down to a bit of a club formula. stephan bodzin, a favourite producer of eulberg, has chosen the clubbiest track of the album >teddy tausendtod< and transformed it into a after hour monster. installing a feeling of electricity with sounds of the original that hover on a layer of huge bass and powerful arrhythmic kicks... it has resulted into a hypnotic anthem.

out 26th of sept. mikkel metals new tartelet ep travels deep into the spectral voids of space. empyrean pads and raw drums reverberate in our ear meatus on cassini -soft kicks with shrill claps and a prodding bassline bringing back memories of mikkel metals earlier dubby excursions. phasing, relentless, and a favourite in the early hours of both the night and morning, cassini has everything needed to become a mainstay for all djs brave enough to venture beyond our known realms. mazurski, a galaxy of beaming details and radiant synthlines colour it deep, while the echoes of light gone by envelops the transient listener. following on the same side is the dub version (vinyl only), outlined by a scrapping kick, filtering sequences of sonic waveforms and abraded sub-basslines. all this rough beauty is fully submerged in a crystal pond of levitating strings and sparkling monotones. these cuts will transport you beyond, both in front of properly charged sound systems and laptop-powered earphones. referencing both the recently resurrected new age wave and the analogue power of london, mikkel metal has brought a completely new dimension to the tartelet universe, the quality is undeniable, the construction timeless and the foot-tapping ensured, so get floating.

as the producer responsible for some of lil b and soulja boys weirdest, most inventive beats, and following on from a critically acclaimed, self released mixtape of instrumentals collected from his work over the years with various forward thinking hip hop artists, tri angle is very excited to announce the release of >rainforest<, the debut ep by clams casino. the five songs that make up >rainforest< find clams casino (aka 23 year old new jersey native, michael volpe) refining his ethereal, otherworldly sound, whilst taking it to a heavier and more intense extreme. what has set clams casino apart from most other hip hop producers is his skill in making records that sound just as good, if not better, instrumentally as they do with vocals, and if anyone needed it, >rainforest< represents the confirmation of this. its a record drenched in mysterious atmospherics, like a foggy memory of a far off exotic place, the details buried beneath the mist of distortion, but present nonetheless. none of the songs on >rainforest< have ever been released before, and in contrast to most of his other productions these songs have always existed purely as instrumentals, free of any vocal presence. >rainforest< is an incredibly powerful release which signals the beginning of clams casino coming into his own and operating as an important artist in his own right

returning for a fourth ep on the label, berlins nick höppner continues his exploration into an ever-developing and rich production vocabulary. the rough goes with the smooth in perfect harmony on -a peck and pawn-. höppners unique sound design leads to a dense wash of sound sparkling with airy details and his characteristic sub bass subtleties, as the whole track gels together in a pushing modern house triumph. the spaced out and traveling -she parked herself- is a real fusion of the many influences behind the producers inspiration. bubbling percussion and pretty melodic structures fuse with a melting analog bassline in this high-tech and positive jam. with its heavy bass and late-night atmospheres -swivel flick- slows the pace in a warm, dubbed and droning thinkpiece that is just as cinematic as it is direct for the club. jostling just beneath the surface youll find a wealth of details that really shows off nicks talent and dedication to a non-standard groove
