best italy continues to do a wonderful job of unearthing much-sought after gems and giving them the re-press they deserve. lily ann was a quintessential one hit wonder of italo disco perfection that surfaced in 1984, and -going crazy- captures the mood of early 80s dance music perfectly. adding value to the release beyond the fresh mastering job and high-end modern pressing, as well as the previously released vocal and instrumental we also get treated to a dub mix of -going crazy- to give you even more options for dropping this impeccable slice of italian dance music history.
lilies (gothenburg, se) starts a new vinyl series focused on techno made with the bare hands: lilieskalla. on the first record, dj lily presents five all analog creations. the sequences are one-take live recordings, shaping a stripped down and slowly changing sound based on a buchla 208c.
lily first appeared on spargel trax, contributing to two of the four releases in the series. since then the artist has appeared on idle hands with the excellent trumpets at dawn and on no corner with the critically acclaimed modern malaise tape.

gothenburg based tora vinter brings a sonic journey of two genre defying tracks to bror06, coming from releases on her own my sonic mountain imprint and remix work for fever ray (rabid records). arriving from an impression inspired by female characters of one thousand and one nights, tora starts the ep with the emotive morgiana, presenting minimalist layers of classy percussion over an eight minute bassline workout together with veraluz’s impassioned vocals. following up the a-side is the lush and evocative sheherazade, bringing the listener from atmospheric soundscapes through suggestive drum patterns - featuring a spaced out, stepping remix by dj lily.
not late in returning to bror records, dj lily showcases new stylistic variations, on the a-side, bringing ambience into an emotive yet heavy state with “kärlek” featuring camilla on the whispers. on the b-side lily further deviates by laying down two focused techno tracks with assertive arrangements: the playful and hard hitting “///////// (forward)” and the dystopian “(backward)” for the peak hours.
