little is known about mysterious producer tommy rawson. our first acquaintance was the aptly named shy track on red rackems smugglers inn 001 release. we tried to find out more but the trail got cold pretty quick. it was not until hearing gilles peterson playing a version of hugh masekelas dont go lose it baby on his show that word got around, tommy rawson was back. this particular anthemic track found its way to mats who then started playing it out and every time, in every club no matter where in the world the reaction was same, people completely lost it on the dance floor! we had but no choice to release the track and luckily enought tommy must have a sixth sense because at the same time mats blasted the track at the local talk office to convince tooli shouting: this is the next big release for local talk, i m telling you! another track made it into his mailbox, the soulful house jam brenda done died with no name. both tracks ended up on this 12 inch of course. mr rawson has delivered the goods here, warm, sunsplashed music all the way. a name to watch for this year and probably not mysterious for long.

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.

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

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.

pro-tez records compiled *the knights of the sad pattern - part 2*! a graceful sequel to the ravingly reviewed first part, this is a double vinyl limited edition of 300 presses, which presents the labels extended family to include fellow house contemporaries like john tejada, anton kubikov and alex danilov alongside with central members korablove, b-voice & anrilov, polar lights, joe le bon, doyeq, among others and also newcomers tornike & nini and harry light. it is one of the those must have releases showcasing an individual, beautifully composed sound, combining feathery piano keys, now and then soulful vocals and minimalist sax parts, with deeply padded, classically-informed house music, and a touch of acid elegance and a refined subtlety.

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?

the every make ep is a double-sided record, featuring 3 tracks crafted structurally for djs and emotionally for dancers. dont bother with em at home or in the car. and, if you are actually able to explode someones head on the dance floor with them, thatd be just fine. morgan alexander began building a sonic home in house music in the early nineties. having relocated in 2005 from seasonal boston to straight-sun los angeles, 2013 finds him with his fingers in as many musical pies as possible. topping them is his respected series of underground events, bottom floor, where he is featured as resident dj. the recent string of guest artists joining morgan in the booth include the likes of john tejada (palette recordings), kai alce (ndatl muzik), chris brann (wamdue project), brett dancer (track mode recordings), jordan fields (mowax), jus-ed (underground quality), boo williams (strictly jaz unit), daniel bell (7th city), recloose (planet e), mike huckaby (s y n t h), and dj sprinkles (mule musiq).
