third part with excellent deep delicious detroit house

2nd part with more detroit madness

the detroit threads record store has survived in one incarnation or another for more than16 years. in this time personal relationships have formed with music makers of every circle over the common bond of vinyl sound. it was a logical step to give back to this community a product that reflects the many faces that make up the store. a store that has been and will continue to be a hub for the exchange of ideas, kept alive by like minded people who still believe in the independent detroit spirit. this spirit shines upon the unique artists that move to their own beat, and never compromise their vision. detroit threads gives a voice to these artists that should be heard. nospectical is walter wasack, jennifer paull, and chistopher mcnamara. they are a team of detroit sound artists that lean into e.d.m. on the minimal tip. their comfort zone is inside of a sounds cape near the sphere of unconsciousness. nospectical is a cool dark breeze that is alive with a pulse. they tread into strangeness and let it come together to form a neurotic world. nospectical works to broaden the view and redefine the depth of detroit techno. detroit threads is proud to support this cause.

part one of a four part series.

insubordinate and averse to anything going on in the edm world the dutch derelict of techno is back with a luminous new album on clone records. steamy and mysterious as ever the paranormal soul is advancing the trademark legowelt sound into new directions. mangling up the historical foundations of new york, detroit, chicago and early u.k rave, mixing it with seedy witchcraft rituals and deep space psychedelics for a boundless journey into techno mysticism.

subwax bcn is very proud to present our new sister label detroit dancer! on this first release we give you no other one than detroit legend santonio echols! mr santonio got famous in the late 90s with vital releases on labels such as kms, serious grooves, made in detroit, express, siren and tresor, from which he made a true mark in techno history. on this release you get three tracks of pure detroit dancing moods and including a fresh remix from orlando voorn, another pioneer in the world of detroit sounds!

detropolis (original mix) is optic nerves take on detroitís infrastructure rebuilding. detropolis opens with the unmistakable optic nerve strings giving you a sense of riding on a futuristic people mover in the night time summer air. the dark and twisted growly baselines makes you long for partying in the new downtown detroit.

after their sure-fire succession of great releases dam swindle end up on the excellent freerange imprint. and if you like the words deep along with atmospheric then this will most definitely appeal to you. from the opening title track with its lush, moody nu-groove styled pads and thunderous hand-claps these three productions simply ooze class and intensity in abundance. next is >gotta know< which rewinds back to classic house sounds and injects a sense of melody into the already swinging rhythms and punchy, detroit bass. which is then followed by >brotherman< and yet more in-depth moods, this time accompanied by jazzy, scat styled vocals for added diversity. finally we have wolf music main man krl stepping up to remix brotherman and a rather sterling job he does to. making great use of the vocal krl brings us a slowed down version with his trademark shuffling drums and a dynamic arrangement. piano stabs and a cheeky boogie synth sample all help bring his own sound to the track and round off the package perfectly.

superb new release by norm talley ! vinyl only. much oriented for the club.

eddie flashin fowlkes has always fancied himself as the forgotten producer of the detroit militia, a point which he explicitly points to on the title of this new release for the detroit wax imprint. >unsung hero< is, interestingly enough, quite noticeably un-detroit sounding, rolling on a killer funky 2-step groove and breezy keys which would slot in nicely against the mellower end of uk garage. on the flip >we need more< takes a stripped approach to house with some strange and submerged vocals from don q and restrained organ stabs, leaving it to the steadfast, bongo-laden groove to do most of the work. unsung hero indeed!

twelve years ago tresor records released terrence dixons debut album >from the far future< - a personal homage to the art and ancestry of techno, culminating in a discursive and dream-like course through the genres many tomes, complete with subtle nods to key protagonists such as kraftwerk, derrick may and juan atkins. a luminescent and ethereal catalogue of tracks awash with shimmery synths and taught rhythmical programming - that still holds true today, >from the far future< made for a stunning first full length that cemented dixons already proven credentials from his population one work and utensil records foundations. after a string of stylistically rich releases - including another album, >train of thought<, this time for cologne-based label yore records - the detroit native returns to tresor records with >from the far future pt.2< - an ambitious, scopey and deeply personal sequel.

excellent 4 track vinyl with sexy house tracks

the only thing that keeps dam swindle from actually being from detroit is that they are born and raised in amsterdam, a little over 6000 kilometers away. so even though they’ve got their 4 feet firmly positioned on dutch soil, their heads and hearts are rooted deep into the soul of the motor city.

after a two-year break, detroit producer and wayward star-child jimmy edgar debuts on scubas hotflush recordings armed with an album full of futuristic sleaze. known for his unique take on jacking house and electro funk, he has recently been splitting his time between the us and berlin, exploring transcendental meditation and the boundaries of the non-physical. this offering is an extension of that journey, bringing eleven tracks of erotic robo-pop to the table. titled majenta, this lp is a departure from his past sound, marking a shift in his own ever-expanding consciousness, as well as another exciting chapter of his musical career. each track is an aural manifesto, giving well-deserved nods to his varied musical influences.

the detroit threads team is at the center of a community of vinyl enthusiasts that take pride in their individual approach to sound. this community struggles to keep their vision alive though the warmth of the medium that holds a special place in the heart, vinyl. as the electronic sound evolves new faces and styles emerge to challenge the establishment. detroit threads hears those voices and works to give them a platform. hou531 and .kite were chosen to represent detrot threads, because they are the yin and yang of the detroit dubstep movement. hou531 has a rambunchous method of creating grinding dubstep that is a release from a lifetime of detroit pressure. where as, .kite uses ethereal synth ambience sprinkled lightly with drum and bass to create an environment that is both sad and beautiful. these artists are under the radar, but by no means are they irrelevant.

vaetxhs inaugural release libet tones for detroit underground draws on both musical themes - electronic idm and musique concrete - and non-musical themes from mathematics, resulting in four labyrinthine tracks that are studies in free association, a state in which ideas float from the unconscious to the conscious. record sleeve design by dmas3. pressing on brown, multicolour-marbled vinyl.

memory ist nicht unbedingt eine abkehr von lazer swords frühen stücken, aber diejenigen, die peitschende hip hop-beats und gecuttete vibes erwarten, werden überrascht sein: antaeus roy (aka lando kal, neuberliner) und bryant rutledge (aka low limit, san francisco) haben sich zurückgenommen, aber gleichzeitig ihre soundpalette erweitert. sie präsentieren eine schlankere, sexiere, cluborientiertere version von lazer sword, die auf 80er electro, detroit techno und verschiedene uk futurism-einflüsse zurückgreift. die palette reicht von klassischem techno, über einflüsse von juke und footwork, infiziös-mutiertem 80er freestyle bis zu gastproduzent jimmy edgar mit seinen berühmt-berüchtigten roboter-sex-vibes.

following a busy year of stylistically varied releases under various guises on his own magic + dreams label, ralph cumbers delivers his first long-player for punch drunk. with a title lifted from the lysergic prose of a brian aldiss novel and grooves informed by the loopier, more martian aspects of chi-town jack and detroit techno-soul, >reeling skullways< marks a subtle, but highly alluring development in the evolution of cumbers primary recording project. long-term bass clef fans may be surprised by the lack of samples on this album, and in many ways it follows a similar creative process to his recent work as some truths, with most rhythms and textures sculpted from the raw, elemental waveforms of modular analogue synthesis. but with tighter editing, contagious melodies and perfectly positioned drum patterns, the end results reveal bass clef simultaneously at his most stripped-back, focused, playful, complicated, emotional and irresistibly groovy. unfettered by fashionable production tricks, imbued with a timeless machine-soul heart, >reeling skullways< is one of those albums you will be reaching for again and again.
