vinyl only! limited to 250 handnumbered pieces! >a grace odyssey< is a floating trip to outer space and comes with an amazing andre kronert remix that brings you down to earth again. the b2 track is pure sunlight riding on a hypnotic groove into eternity.

as a man well versed in the moves of the old-school, fabio monesi launches his albion imprint with the immaculately executed styles of 623, full of sexy 90s synth notes and crisp, pumping beats. washerman brings a more rugged style on his remix of the tune, dropping in some cheeky and thoroughly familiar samples, while the melody wobbles around an amorphous scale. the peephouse finds monesi reaching back to the soothing organ tones of the dx7, with a gentle and piano-driven throw down that stills carries plenty of heft for the floor. rio padice steps up for another remix of 623 and spreads a strange and nervous shape-shifter of a late-night jam, scattering the vocals like confetti and nudging the drums out of joint on a whim.

part two of the brilliant new minimal series from the avian camp, full colour , stickered picture sleeve, 4 stripped down tracks plus 2 locked grooves on 10 inch

urgent repress for this fine move from shifted on sighas label features insert and poly sleeve. shifted returns to sighas ocs imprint for another stunning ep of eyes down techno and atmospherics. following the release of his much lauded debut album crossed paths, his signature sound has continued to evolve, adding strains of something altogether tougher, whilst retaining the textured loopy aesthetic that have always made his tracks so identifiable. essential for fans of both contemporary and classic techno

feverish new eaux release, limited white vinyl 1st edition, printed disco bag. although rroses alma mater record label sandwell district may now be defunct, the actively ambiguous american producer shows no signs of slowing down. after launching his own experimental techno label eaux earlier this year and making true-to-name appearances dressed as a sophisticated, chic female, rrose has continued to pursue elusiveness while ironically garnering an enthusiastic following amongst techno purists. without a doubt, the release of > wedge of chastity< will further reinforce the sonic niche that the eaux label has carved out for itself.

this various artist release has a very different vibe on each side, bastedos churn out two belters sitting around the 130/140bpm mark while the b-sides takes it down a notch for two funky midtempo goodies. an interesting release, packed with the greatness that dessert island discs is becoming known for!

it is with great pleasure to announce the first jet jam single, which comes in the form of a collaboration between star slinger and sound pellegrino founder teki latex. together they have created a tune you will be iding at the club in no time. featuring tekis screwed-down lyrics over slingers soca-snare-driven house production. the superb renaissance inspired artwork is by michaela selmani. one of the founders of jet jam.

limited edition reissue, includes >close to the edge<, >and y>ou and i< and >siberian khatru< on heavyweight 180 gram vinyl in gatefold sleeve. cut from the original analopg master tapes, packaging replicated to the finest detail, pressed with more care than ever.

r&s welcome new signing mpia3 to the label with a doublepack of uncompromising techno. mpia3 is a production alias of truss (perc trax) who has just the two eps preceding this on shifteds avian label. >your orders< see him continue down the path of raw, industrial, seriously funky, acid techno. his signature overdriven kicks recall classic robert armani and his sound harks back to the days of mike dearbourn and djax up beats, and the classic uk techno of ben sims and james ruskin but the tracks on >your orders< could have only been made in 2012. this is heavyweight music built for proper soundsystems and dark rooms. the six tracks on the ep straddle different tempos with some slick drum programming, but are tied together with some razor sharp synths and a healthy dose of acid.

assemble music returns with a three-track ep from colognes david joseph aka st. joseph, exploring further the refined, tripping path forged on the labels previous release from daze maxim. the pianos, vocal snatches and ambient hiss of josephs releases on platzhirsch are present and correct, but here the jazz flourishes are reduced down into something far slicker. these tracks have been prepared using a keen blade, and none sharper than >personal dancefloor<. heavy drum programming and a rumbling bottom end bring to mind theo parrish in his moodier moments, but the deal is sweetened by light piano, garage-like vocal samples and a deep, burning 4 love bassline. >indigo< spins the duke ellington classic into a spiralling, shuffling chugger that will bring a 30s harlem spirit to enterprising dancefloors. move the needle to the b2, though, for the eps party hit. written in 2009 and reflecting that years raw arrangements and joyous samples, >wave/table/muscle< finally gets a vinyl release, proving this sound endures to this day. expect more of the same from assemble music with their next release featuring vera and ricardo villalobos.

after having blessed the world with >soarex< released on our sublabel irr (international records recordings), including a remix by ada, we would now like to welcome von spar to areal. and this time, the remix comes from no other than techno legend john tejada. with >jon voight<, the hamburg-based artists have created another epic masterpiece in line with their earlier electronic tracks: great emotions, melodies you will never forget... in other words: a track that will send something of a shiver down your spine. tejada, of austrian decent now living in the united states, shows full respect for the original version and comes up with a remix that has proven immensely effective on the dancefloor. it so effective that we still find ourselves awestruck in the studio. well, in the meantime, we have to admit that we went out to one or two parties, but only to find ourselves back in the studio again, still awestruck.

after the zohar comes black dynamite aka ivano tetelepta – another well kept secret in the house music scene. on his city to city ep the man delights us with three raw and extremely funky tracks which display a deep love for oldschool hip-hop beats. in fact, these three tracks oscillate heavily between stripped down, soulinfluenced house and instrumental hip-hop. and everyone who knows tenderpark will immediately understand that this is just the perfect synthesis of some of our main interests.

known for his releases on hamilton dance and on the prowl party breaks, marcos cabral comes from brooklyn, new york, and needs no introduction for the house music lovers... after been fascinated with his work, we decided to approach marcos to try to join him on our new project, a harmless deed, because we thought it was exactly the type of artist and music we were looking for and when we recieved the demo we were not let down at all. land of tar ep is a mixture of oldschool sounds with a modern and personal point of view. on the a side we can find > pitch lake<, our favourite track on the package. already tested and probed to be working perfectly on the dancefloor, it yet has a deep, weird and beautiful touch. b side is more classic chicago influenced, on the old mr fingers type, 707, synthy melodies, pads and strings...

japans rhythm of elements return with another e.p. that display their versatility and belief in the many forms that soulful music can take. >tribe #3< contains the classic rhythm of elements combination of dj uchikawas firing electronic beats alongside virtuoso piano playing by makoto kuriya, plus bass by incognitos francis hylton. the track is a tribute to the late departed detroit electronic music artist aaron carl who sadly passed away last year. continuing the detroit connection, rick wilhite has been working with the likes of theo parrish and moodymann for years, and his remix of >tribe #3< provides an audio beatdown, stripping the whole thing down to its rawest elements, and supplying the hard and the smooth in perfect balance. >blow< is another journey into a percussive horn driven groove for the dancefloor. rhythm of elements provide the remix, layering the musical elements like flavours in a delicious cake. finally, >meditation bath< (loftsoul 2012 mix) takes the pace right down for this beautifully relaxing slow burner. close your eyes and let it flow over you.

haling from asuncion, lpzs ariel soler, javier rodriguez and jorge carron have spent the past 4 years gradually putting paraguay on the dance music map. for whats proving to be their watershed year, may saw the trio release the well-circulated >1983< ep via the body work imprint, shortly before delivering an era-themed mix for the fashion rag, dazed & confused. now, following on from a recent collaboration with hyperdubs lv, the south americans make their debut on the long serving loungin recordings. >the benedict & grace ep< combines two purpose-made productions specifically crafted to align with the west london imprints heritage for house at the deeper end of the spectrum. cloaked in hardware reverb, a-side >benedict< takes deep house to the doors of driving dub-techno, while >grace< represents a refined garage roller, more respective of loungins output in the early-2000s. over on the flip, rotterdams increasingly revered bruk-step lynchpin c.o.n.e converts grace into an industrious slab of mechanical grime, before the porto-based trikk applies his low-end house sensibilities to benedict by stripping it down into a slab of deep yet futuristic minimalism.

the third release on the vinyl-label playmusic-productions is presented by the berlin-based rene reinert under his artist name amor fati, whos also the label owner of black is black recordings. on his very unique work for playmusic-productions called träumer & tänzer, which is german for d...

following up his well-received 12inch >deep deep down< on aus in late 2011, cottam re-emerges with another striking two-tracker for the label. originally breaking onto the scene in 2009 via a series of anonymous 12inches — three of which were named in phonicas top 50 singles — he eventually unveiled himself as the humble newcomer paul cottam.

wars/when i feel is juk juks third 12 release for nommos lead tune wars is pure winter melancholy driven by dark rhythms and brooding basslines, occasionally broken down with celestial synths. slick, enigmatic and moody, a hard one to pin down but easy to get lost in. in contrast when i feel is an irresistible piece of minimal garage house. big kicks and crisp highs are punctuated with reversed strings. all this is scattered with juk juks signature vocal manipulations.

>impolite to refuse< by claude young remade and remixed by santiago salazar and esteban adame as ican. originally released in 1996, >impolite to refuse< immediately inspired the future members of ican. it had that detroit techno soul with latinized bass and percussion, even before knights of the jaguar, claude youngs masterpiece had won us over. also included on this release are two new versions of >impolite to refuse<. esteban adame and santiago salazar did their homework to recreate the strings, bass and then added their own inspired twists for the ican remake. esteban adame slows it down to 118 bpm for a latin funk jam on his deep mix.

reset robot makes his second appearances of 2012 on truesoul with an expansive ep that explores the middle ground between techno and house. >she lives above the door< stomps heads-down through burrowing grooves before revealing its killer hook, >snotty< rolls out a shuffling deep house inspired vibe.

any unauthorized hiring, lending, public performance broadcasting or playing to large crowds may bring down the walls.

long time disco sorcerer ray mang has taken mirador de las estrellas to a beautiful place, utilizing the steal drum as a hypnotic hook and editing jorge socarras memorable spanish vocals down to an effective sigh. if there ever a track for your indian summer, this is it. on the flipside, the boys from cage & aviary sprawl out the original extended version of their tough and dubby bonus beats (this bomb is exclusive to this vinyl release). if you know whats best, youll not sleep on this one there is nothing more pleasing than completing a set.

perc trax is proud to unveil the debut ep by pinion, known in a former life as us-based producer bobby dowell. pinion is the sound of a man with his own vision of music, sitting somewhere between classic industrial and contemporary techno without slavishly bowing down to either discipline. where the likes of ancient methods and perc are the sound of metal on metal, pinion is more like wood on leather, a ceremonial throb that switches in an instant from tightly locked grooves to more freeform rhythmic patterns.

after the killer dez andres 12 , m1-sessions is back with their third installment luminous stasis by dial.81 featuring vocals from the talented paul randolph (mahogani music, jazzanova). this e.p. is a journey through dance, ambient, and down tempo music.

this twentieth 3024 release is by my friend trevino. i am particularly proud to put this out because it was trevino (aka marcus intalex), who signed my very first tracks and gave me my break back in 2005 (a 12 inch called get down on his label revolve:r). in the last two years he has started taking his techno more seriously, writing new tracks at a very fast pace. i am glad people are taking notice of his music cos he is the real deal and it was tough picking tracks for this release cos he is making so many! ultimately we chose four that would clearly showcase marcus different sides and styles. so, seven years after my >get down<, i am proudly presenting the mighty trevino with his >tactical manoeuvre ep<.

a real treat up next for you on apple pips, coming from talented plymouth based beatsmith phat chex … phat chex aka ben pooley came to apple pips attention through the dj/promoter necta selecta, who was repping chex beats at the legendary subheavy parties. when necta dropped >git da funk<, it was a case of >who the ruddy heck is this by?!<. a friendship was struck up, and tune swapping has resulted in these two beauties being dropped on wax. a versatile producer who sums up the current bass scenes openminded attitude to genres and influences, chex is at home making deep electro, heads down techno, smokey jazzed out house, or post whatever bass music.

that is attack, decay, sustain, release. the adsr envelope is just one type of envelope, but it is a popular one that has been used in electronic music for decades. attack is the period of time after the initial release, it is typically the loudest part of the sound decay is the phase while you are going from the attack to the sustain – you are decaying the volume from this sharp initial phase to the normal volume phase sustain is the normal phase of the sound. it is typically less volume than the attack, and go on for an indefinite period of time, or for a specific amount of time release is the draw down from the sustain period to no sound. a fade out.
mini-lp release, cd version included.

total control dislocate expectations with this inaugural home loan records 12 inch. not the charged up paranoid vox/guitar/drums combo that we have become accustomed to through their visceral live shows - instead men with machines producing pensive proto-tech experiments and tense industrial wave. includes the original version of carpet rash which was re-recorded in full band mode for henge beat, and two previously unreleased immersive rhythm tracks formed through collaboration between guitarist mikey young and drummer james vinciguerra. vinciguerra would fire deranged beats down the hole while young would jam over them, watching waves in a trance from his perch at phillip island. on the flip we find two reconstructions from home loan manager michael ozone. carpet rash receives the club re-contextualisation with ozone fully utilising its penetrating synth hook, while new age hop climbs the arabic scale.

new kanada enters the fall 2012 season with some dark angular acidic house. black and medleys >roll the dice< - featuring the voice of rosina – is an old-school blend of disco, ny house and classic toronto warehouse vibes. slightly acidic, with its bubbling juno bassline – and slightly techno with the driving, repetitive beat – this house track should rock the deepest of dancefloors. file somewhere between henry street and early adonis. 5am - no earlier. for the flipside, adam marshall sits down at the controls for a clinical, tight, stripped-down scrubbing, turning the original into a late-night fear edit. broken, diffused drums and lots of black empty space in this one. the lights go out – blackout.

deep house emporium ornate music cast their worldly gaze to the far east, calling on japanese producer sai, a graduate of agness sthlm audio imprint, for a killer four track ep entitled bedroom eyes. the sultry, suggestive nature of the title is translated into the tunes on offer, with opening cut >2am< offering the most subtle of acid lines alongside piano flourishes and a spoken word vocal snippet. better still is the afterhours bump of >blue lingerie<, while >mr< toughens things up on the flip with a analogue grit and cooing vox. the 12 inch is rounded off with another original cut in >another myself<, which is dripping in classic motor city house vibes with gently oscillating bass tones reaching deep down inside.

>blurry< runs at 133bpm allowing it to sit neatly between dubstep tempo and the increasingly popular 125-130 bpm bass / house scene that has been developing in the uk over the last couple of years. taking things down an ongy-bongy path, this rhythm provides the soundtrack to a hunter chasing his prey through a humid jungle landscape, with fast weaving beats charged heavy by the deadly subs. the heat is on.
>spearhead< sees roska making a rare 140bpm trip, taking this rhythmical excursion neatly into dubstep tempo territory, creating an original cut which sits in its own world of tribal grime. the bassline pounds heavy, eventually rising upward before suddenly plummeting back down to the murky depths from where it came, and back round again. dis-hyeer quality dubstep music produced pon the other side of the looking glass.

plymouths 14th best dj aldo vanucci drops his latest in the form of this killer ep. >you re all show< features the sublime vocals of kylie auldist - best known as the lead singer of the bamboos but also a massive star in her own right. in this track she lyrically tears down some unfortunate individual who has been showing out a little too much. >take me to a party< features rappers asm batting off the unwanted attentions of the post gig sparkle ponies and with aldos backing creates a classic hip hop party vibe. >what happened?< re-works a classic vocal to devastating effect and >alone< re-creates the off kilter breakbeat vibe of aldos biggest track to date >when i see you smile<.

nice price deal !!! aÑa / henning baer / norman nodge / musk.... no one knows exactly how, or why it happened. we can only postulate. perhaps it was rogue hydrogen atoms causing havoc again, or a particularly voracious wave of em radiation hell bent on finding a good time. the point is, (in those days) such lude behavior was simply unacceptable: aÑa had become excited, too much so for the solar stiffs that swirled about her. and that system of hers—always buzzing around, refusing to share anything—it had to go. so both were exiled from that collision patch they called home, leaving aÑa and her system to wander the cosmos. some years passed. aÑa grew a little, but mostly she practiced her basswalk—not this girly swooshy thing with your hips, but a real bolshy bovver boot stomp. after a while she got pretty good at it, she wanted to show her friends. maybe theyd like to basswalk too. well, they couldnt get enough of it—but no one did it quite like aÑa. henning baers had a bit more groove to it and this whole new tweaky hat element. norman nodge kept his pretty punchy, but all that time spent in berghain had turned his basswalk into a bit of a skulk. as for musk, the boys inverted the whole thing of course—turned a disco trick, shifting the march down into more of a slinky house glide. aÑa liked them all so much—and it was time isolated system stopped being such a separatist—she decided to gather them all together to make basswalker part i. now you can basswalk too

chairlift present takes on several cuts from acclaimed second album >something< by some of their favorite producers, showcasing how their songs can easily be adapted for the club. appropriately titled the 6.15amix, spanish equipo fantástico john talabot and pional turn >i belong in your arms< into a balearica-infused club-closer. a nifty piano line and seductive rhythm take the song on a late night (or rather early morning) trip to the beach, while carolines voice is being warped into something from outer space. photek takes the same track to a whole different place with his powerful jungle interpretation. martyn respects both the pace and rhythm of sidewalk safari, yet exchanges the clean production for a rather more cosmic beat, incorporating many of his signature touches to compliment the sinister >i m gonna hunt you down< lyric. dan careys dub mix of >sidewalk safari< shows a more playful side, while arguably the most intriguing remix of the package is the fields take on >met before<, recalling his early work it is so warped and layered you may struggle to imagine the original minus the smallest of hints.

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.
