repress of this really hard to find chicago classic from 1988.. must have!!!

dalhous is the latest collaborative incarnation of marc dall and alex ander, who have previously released on blackest ever black as young hunting. the change of name reflects a new clarity and conviction to their work, and while certain sonic signatures, not to mention certain extra-musical influences (particularly the films of jack bond and jane arden), have carried over from their last project, they are handled here with a newfound sophistication and restraint. mitchell heisman marks the beginning of a new chapter in the precocious duos development, and heralds dalhouss debut album on blackest ever black in 2013.

c-edits! a limited series of vinyl only dj friendly versions of songs from the past and present. straight out of a debut on wolf + lamb black covering fade to grey, c-edits is back with the fourth in the series. from slo house to breaks and disco this is another great addition in the catalog. keep on movin dont stop y all!

persnickety sounds is here to funk-ti-fy your world! in this era of nu-disco, space disco, cosmic disco, disco house and shit, there must be a beacon of quality to light the way and lead the faithful back to a place where good grooves matter and realness is holding court.let the labels fall and just get it movin.

attacke? schon beim vorgaenger psycho haben lexy & k-paul bewiesen, wie leichtfueßig ihnen der spagat zwischen clubbigen hammerbuden, smartem electro-pop und hochanspruchsvoller 4/4-elektronik gelingt. mit dem neuen album >attacke< veredeln sie diese rezeptur nachhaltig

in the here and now of house and techno, a flux is taking place. the newest generation of souls possessed by the beat has never had a better chance to look back at the unbridled creativity and vitality of the 80s and 90s, and channel it into their contemporary creations. the gospel of youtube and a wealth of mixes with convenient tracklists make it easy for the lazy artist to absorb what was great before and reflect it in their contemporary productions. this of course is of no concern for someone like franck roger

i made another record for the lovely welshmen at ten thousand yen. the a side is an arpy thing with bass the flip is a vocally thing with bass. they both contain breakdowns - please dont hold this against me xoxo

the bomb that should have dropped way back when. after a career spanning almost two decades dj overdose debuts on creme with his first full length album, upon which we remark with carefully considered understatement: a veritable tour de resistance in film noir electronics, bizarro world is a dank and dark alley made flesh

music is dead is the new solo project by french producer olaf hund. juggling absurdity, cynicism and intimacy, hund wakes the dead, singing a post-punk score for guitar and electronic instruments bringing a new breath to electro-pop music. with the memories of a boy from the old school who saw the end of the golden age, olaf hund defines himself as a post-electronic artist.

the recordings for the wires cracked were completed in a frenzied two week period in october of 2012. i had mentioned in discussing a previous albums construction that i prefer to forget how i build any particular electro-acoustic amalgam. this is so that i dont get to precious with them, so that i could refine them further, so that the sounds themselves speak beyond their aggregate parts. with the album being relatively fresh in my mind, i can still recall various components to the wires cracked -- the desolate howl of a metal screen activated by a desert wind, the hissing air compression from the cooling apparatus for a laser at the slac national accelerator laboratory operated by stanford university, and the tremolo rhythms from a thin wire that still get me thinking fondly of günter schickert -- but much of the caustic drone, thrumming reverberation, and tactile grit thoroughly escapes me. that is probably for the best, since these various parts speak to an existential rupturing, the collapse of the self, the aftershocks of dark energy, and a belief in the hope for renewal.

the story of bonobo is one that has become uncommon in contemporary music. there was no sudden, viral internet sensation, no one-off big hit, no abrupt, accidental alignment with the zeitgeist. instead, over the course of four albums, myriad tours, singles, remixes and production work for other artists, he quietly but very definitely became one of the most important artists in electronic music. the hard work paid off, and culminated in 2010s black sands, a masterful album that married greens inimitable melodic genius and musicianship to bleeding edge electronics, bass and infectious drums.
after a year plus of touring the hypnotic, extended live versions of black sands, he finally found time last year to embed himself in his new york studio and write his fifth studio album. now, in 2013, he stands ready to take things up yet another notch. the north borders is a long stride forward - both a natural evolution and a continuation of the electronic palette of black sands. thematic, resonant, addictive and perfectly formed, it is a thrillingly coherent statement piece.

with this fizzmint 12 inch vinyl-only release under his borealis pseudonym, jesse somfay (traum, archipel, ...) releases something completely different, yet so complementary, compared to his 2012 debut release on origami. on this track, with a total duration of 13 minutes, borealis pushes the envelope in his experiments of deeper techno infused with darker multi-layered ambient reaching the sweet spot to the perfect soundtrack of a pumping and flowing heart-themed release on dandelion lotus sub-series anatomy. on the flip side of this first anatomy series release is a remix by lakker (hailed & played by blawan, aphex twin, autechre,...). limited vinyl-only edition, with artwork by alex konahin. we dont really need to say more, dont we?

this new italian artist (already released on nacthstrom schallplatten, drehmoment, etc.)shows two interesting tracks with a modern concept of techno.the first track is a sort of hypnotic techno with a lot of groove inside, never boring.the second track is a beautiful trip with experimental and industrial sounds, he doesnt want forget his roots.

kolortown is probably the best deep dub act in the world right now, drawing heavy influence from oldschool reggaedub combined with contemporary musical expressions and technology. this ep is a masterpiece in dubtricks, layering & tapebouncing and contains plenty of variety in moods, everything from cluboriented 4/4 steppers to late night chill out when the lights are out. this release shows the true skills of producers xoki & hieronymus here brought to a wider audience, and is comparable to the likes of massive attack and portishead. dont miss out on this part 3-its quite extraordinary!

nach vier alben, die beim legendären john-zorn-label tzadik erschienen, fallen einem bei koby israelite begriffe wie eigenwillig , genial , produktiv , avantgardistisch und passt in keine schublade ein. aber letztlich ist der in israel geborene südlondoner - dessen musikalische reise vom klassischen klavier über den jazz zu speed-metal-drumming bis zum akkordeon führte - ständig auf der suche nach dem perfekten sound. und hierbei spielt es keine rolle, ob dieser von black sabbath, beethoven, bluegrass oder den rumänischen roma inspiriert ist. der sound ist dabei von eindringlicher schönheit, unterstrichen von der schwermütig klingenden armenischen duduk und einem wehmütigen akkordeon, und verbindet die liebe koby israelites zur musik des balkans und dem blues. jenseits des kantigen zusammentreffens von stilen und einflüssen - das album will nicht jedem und immer gefallen - findet man sich in einer welt wieder, die von einer einzigartigen musikalischen vision zusammengehalten wird, die gleichermaßen mutig wie kräftig, fremd wie süß ist.

incl. collaborations with caribou, apparat und dirk von lowtzow, hildegard knef und matthew dear, ada und milosh!

the weird house music composers from brazil strike again with four slices of spaced-out dance floor sounds. psychedelic is just one of the adjectives that come to mind when hearing brazilian duo colors sound system. on their first single for lovemonk, sao paolo brothers jota wagner and wander a, who call themselves weird house music composers, continue on the path to a higher state of consciousness with four slices of mind-altering disco and house splashed with spacemen 3-like vocals and seventies prog guitars and organs. just listen to the almost eleven minutes of *ar* if you dont believe. or *1974*. or *poeira lunar*, for that matter. the beatless title track is the only one staying under the seven-minute limit, and it is also the last track on the ep, like a much-needed comedown. space is the place, as the great sun ra said.

rekids have teamed up with detroits fit distribution and enlisted the services of motor city locals marcellus pittman and urban tribe to put the 313 sound on *working* and *taxi talk*. on the former, marcellus pittman lays down his trademark blend of mechanical yet jerky old-skool drum machine rhythms and disorientingly dissonant, tripped-out synth chords – creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere that evokes images of detroits manufacturing plants of yesteryear. on the flipside, urban tribe transform *taxi talk* into a big room monster, using rumbling synth bass, electronic bleeps and laser gun snares to transport us back in time to a dark and hazy 90s warehouse rave.
