get physicals first delivery for 2015 is, yet again, an ep that strays a bit off the beaten track. for this last installment, gpm290, junge junge has called upon australian native kyle pearce to set some velvety vocals to a toned-down, bittersweet delight of a track. the ‚beautiful girl ep opens with its namesake creation, a thumb piano-laden tune decorated by some seriously smoky singing just waiting to transport you far away. its followed by a handful of distinct reworkings, by audiofly who take on a dub remix and spins the song on its head to give it a new psychedelic identity. meanwhile, blond:ish throws it into darker terrain only to have the ‚beautiful girl lifted up by junge junge once again thanks to a slightly different version that turns it into danceable am epic by way of some wisely-placed kicks and claps.

inspired by the success of last summers retrospective on poker flat, steve bug takes up his traffic signs moniker once more for a fabulous jam that more than merits the 10-year wait. the uncredited tunes that first came out under this name were classic jack tracks that devastated dancefloors - and cookie jar is a more than worthy successor. this is stripped-down house, chicago-esque, direct and determined to make you move. berlin legend jake the rapper adds downright dirty humour with a spoken vocal fit for an age of internet sextapes and celebrity photo hacking.

originally released in 1997, this early production from the legendary dutchman gerd has recently enjoyed a revival, the rare wax finding its way back into the sets of raresh, ryan elliott and bass culture label boss d julz, amongst a few happy others. after seeing on a number of occasions the magic effect ‘mass majestic’ could have on the crowd, the catchy hook appealing to all ears, d’julz knew what the next release had to be. with scarce second-hand copies hotly in demand, this secret weapon is about to see a new lease of life via bass culture. reissued in a remastered and slowed down version, ‘mass majestic’ is one of those tracks which stays on your mind long after the party is over ... the haunting keys, the intensity of the synths and the climax of clashing symbols, all driven along by the raw chugging bass-line makes this a peak-time winner. the flip side features ‘to reach’, another track from the original ep. a big room monster of rolling bass and syncopated keys, its old skool charm and brash energy grabs you to full-on, trippy effect. considered a prolific, timeless and highly eclectic producer, ‘mass majestic’ ep indulges in gerd’s blatant ballsy techno side, remaining an extremely effect dj tool 17 years on.

tom demac tears down the gazelle twin original compositions and rebuilds them with feverish candor. *belly of the beast* pounds hard with rubbery percussion and rattling hats like chains, the gazelle twin chants her mantra *i ll beat them all at their own game…* demacs padded cell like production is most definitely some of the best work we have heard him do to date, and this dark sound aesthetic spills into his take on *guts*. like an electro take on a john carpenter score, demac carves out a futuristic and desolate take on gazelle twins celebration of urge resistance and taking pleasure in the complexity of the mind.

happy skulls first release of 2015 comes from uk based artist creta kano, who first impressed with his 2013 debut on rotterdam’s pinkman records. he showcases his highly melodious and deeply textured sound across three tracks for the bristol imprint. *skyway motel* is an emotive, detroit inspired amalgamation of warm chords and rolling drum machine rhythms. the tracks romantic qualities are emphasised on *skyway 81*, a screwed, pitched-down version that re-casts the original as a serotonin fuelled slow jam. *false water* completes the package. a sprawling trip in to broken techno territory, reminiscent of 90s era rephlex.

introducing the album comes track coma with thousands supa grove percussions and intergalactic keys driving you to a heart of a universe on supersonic speeds. next comes the viking and continues the ep with a serious intellectual sound containing analog vibes mixed with echo keys and drums. a track called akranes brings your mind to a called train passing through snowy siberia with million thoughts and a hot tea in a hand with eyes caught up by snowy fields behind the window. mud gives a shot and brings u down after all the illusions u have during listening an ep, this track will make you shaking in 2-3 seconds so hold on! a true analog sound in a quality pack is that what you prefer to get inside the monsters ep s. monster power!

following the huge success of dlm 004 and the massive appeal of roman flugels remix of idle eyes (as charted by all from dixon to michael mayer, dan avery to maceo plex), here is a little surprise from our camp. glockd is c.a.rs trademark washed out sarcasm, bleached cynicism, the track forages paths through chloes dark mind. it was one of the first tracks she wrote on her own, and was recorded down the bunker with timothy j fairplay. a favourite of andrew weatherall (who nominated my friend, the c.a.r album, as one of the best releases of 2014), it is now coming full-circle, being given a stomping shuffle air guitar dance-floor rework by the asphodells … if you liked our lord sabres remix of fuck buttons this is for you. electronics looking at the floor & air guitar. following it is manfredas (the protégé of les disques de la mort) vocal version of angelina, a request from many after the instrumental being released earlier this year. the northern wulf is biting again. and he bites hard.

after a stunning three part compilation released in the second half of 2014, dutch label field is back with another album project, this time from american producer christopher ernst, aka l estasi dell oro, who also records as penalune and is co-founder of the voodoo down label. before now, ernst has proved himself to be adept at crafting deep and atmospheric, excellently ambient techno on a range of labels. varying his tempos and textures, he does acid, raw stuff, tough beats and more industrial grooves. across this new 8-track album, all this and more is explored in captivating fashion. this is an expressive and expansive modern techno album from l estasi dell oro that is perfectly at home on the always interesting field label.

jon hopkins begann seine musikalische laufbahn 1999 im zarten alter von 21 jahren. er arbeitete mit brian eno und david holmes zusammen, war an der produktion dreier coldplay-alben beteiligt und erhielt für sein album *immunity* 2013 eine mercury prize-nominierung. seine late night tales session klingt wie ein requiem für einen traumort, irgendwo zwischen himmel, hölle und dem überfluteten themse-delta. technobeats und verzerrungen mögen vorkommen, doch der blick des zuhörers wandert gefangen und verträumt über die weiten eines offenen ozeans bei nacht. wir begegnen den komponisten nils frahm und ben lukas boysen, den warp-acts bibio und darkstar, jonsi & alex von sigur ros, den grace jones-samplern holy other, sowie künstler wie four tet, alela diane, school of seven bells, health und david holmes. garniert wird diese außergewöhnliche zusammenstellung mit einem exklusiven jon hopkins pianocover des yeasayer-songs *i remember*, sowie mit einer spoken-word-erzählung des produzentenkollegen rick holland.

repress 2015,
here we have their third release, available in very limited back cat quantities it s walter gibbons getting down in abba s under-floor heated studio on part 1 with part 2, slowing things a tad and amping up the bass elements into a slinky topside mover, while part 3 slips us fully into cruise control, as we drop anchor and gaze up at the stars, just before sly and robbie pop aboard for some early morning cocktails

entitled narita, the release is inspired by, and dedicated to, japan, and the tracks are a collage of all the experiences and emotions the producer has picked up there whilst on his travels. this release was also due to be the 44th on the label (which has now made it up to number 67) and so has clearly been cooking for a long time. once again it proves the man behind it to be focused on stripped back and hypnotic grooves, shadowy textures and subliminal synths that are abstract and truly heady. up first, sleepless is a spooky and hypnotic techno roller with icy pads and rubber drums that roll on like a haunted midnight train burrowning deep into your brain. ebisu is even more reserved, with just a light, skipping kick and tinkling, glassy keys suspending you in a wide open space of abstract atmospheric soun d. on th e flip side, mountain splitter is more urgent and immediate, with nervy pads this time racing alongside woodpecker precision and supple drums. it s heady stuff that really distracts you from the world before finally trance is a wash of grainy white noise and groaning synths that soundtrack a word deep down in the depths of the ocean. svreca is a master of getting deep inside both body and brain and does so in different but captivating ways with all four of these cuts.

absolutely huge record from the shelter vaults! roland clark killing it on this underground house anthem from the turn of the millenium. i get deep (shelter mix) is pure peak time joy, based around a rough looping sample lifted from blue magics seminal philly anthem welcome to the club from 1976 and with clarks vocals telling us how he gets down in the club over some heavyweight drums. simple, yet devastatingly effective. this 12inch also features the dub mixes, original mix and the always indispensable acapella version for those who wish to create their own version!

highlife welcomes the return of alma negra! anyone who bothers paying attention to these press releases will note that we have recently been comparing tracks to other artists we admire, or go down the celebrity endorsement route. this time round well do neither. instead we will say, maloya is the first record we’ve listened to 3 times in a row upon receiving it. it has provoked id requests every time weve played it and our dear friend susie crome claims its one of the best records shes ever heard. that’s no mean feat, susie is well versed on the party front. see for yourself.

this time around, the shimmy sham sham crew offers you a little lesson in history. in 1916, the notorious bandit el guapo and his gang of thugs are errorizing the population of santo poco in mexico. three silent film stars, mistaken for real heroes by the suffering people of the pueblo are called to the rescue and must find a way to live up to their reputation. this is the story of an epic bought between good and evil, a fight to death between three knights of light and the sons of a motherless goat! and off they rode into the sunset in the heat of the night, let those sweaty numbers melt down any worries. no top hat and gator shoes required, just shake that ass!

vinyl only. extended precision-tooled killers on this latest ep from specialist label assemble music, which reunites daze maxim with his long-time friend and collaborator patrick specke. the two put their considerable dj experience to the proof on two serious heads-down weapons aimed squarely at the floor: ‘battery’ rides a threatening bassline and loose, propulsive percussion through a series of phased synth lines that envelop and disorientate, while the portside waves-esque bass swells on drag me massage the eardrums and direct the feet. completing the ep in complementary fashion is chromosome, which brings some more skip to proceedings, its shuffling percussion, pitchbent bassline and melodic accents all interlocking to form an irresistible groove. primed and ready for action and only on vinyl – get it while it’ hot.

every wph summer brings us…the wph summer special! well, some summer specials have been known to be released in the winter, with huge acclaim from the cold masses who had something to warm their hearts and souls to. so we figured we would release another summer special in the winter… the mysterious-but-not-really harry baldi kicks things off with ‘something for your mind’, a sample-ridden up tempo house workout that will also go down a treat on techno floors. solid yamaha bass anyone? up next we introduce a new belgian member to the wph family. dj miclem has quietly been working on his music and now it’s time to let some of it out of the studio and onto your decks. this is the vintage wph sound that got us on the map!

limited pressing of 250 with hand-made covers
the third release published by the vfmm, this time teaming up with the befriended label kashual and its mastermind - a brother from a different mother - thome thomp from berlin.the record encompasses a broader scope of electric music productions and still clings to the love and passion for analogue hardware.on side a of the record we again are lucky to present another bizarre yet gripping voodoo stomper by our very beloved bufiman. we are also very excited to welcome the very debut of a rather talented and promising project called forum whose uncompromising and raw acid sound is tearing every dance-floor to bits.the flipside kicks off with a very deep-laid and mellow analogue soundscape produced and arranged by the renown and ingenious rvds. utterly hypnotized by this track, the listener will then be caught and dragged down by the harsh and very stark atmosphere of the fairly industrial but emotive techno production of our mate thome thomp.you all are advised to keep an eye out to this record as it will be gone very quickly.

having established deepsystems as a radio show some years back, matt pond (one third of the bittersuite collective) has decided to launch a record label under the same name. given his contacts, it s a smart move. two close pals - bittersuite member jon gray and dan 1dan rodgers - join forces as tales ov rossi, laying down a slowly shifting chunk of deep, heads-down house that stretches across one side of the 12-. on the flip, gray goes solo under the bittersuite banner, delivering the two-part -familiar currents-. both versions sound heavily inspired by the dense percussion, expansive musicality and rich soundscapes of ron trent.

big analog house tip! limited edition, no repress.

limited copies, analog lovers hinode offer three distinct soundspaces to lose yourself in and never come back. linear equation drifts in the same heady atmosphere as stls lighter flights of fancy, suspended loosely in a pillowy cloud of pads and oscillating bass thats perfect for warming up the senses. the detroit thump of cubic parsec sees that simmering tension break through into outer space, its deadened kicks and rushing snares evoking robert hoods seminal nighttime world vol 1. lastly, hinode slow down and stretch out for the sensational time travel, an ultra-refined and precision-controlled electro killer that will take afterparty dancers on a trip beyond.

after the striking debut release on nothing odd recordings found label owner sam smith sitting comfortably alongside baby ford for an exploration of subliminal house and techno, nor002 finds smith donning the alias monty the fly and expanding on his own vision for stripped-down dance music brimming with psychoactive tendencies. across the three tracks there is a diverse range of moods being drawn on, from the meditative to the mechanical, all fused together by what some might consider an obsessive eye for detail. there s meditation in the air in places, with mysterious pads and heavy splashes of reverb soaking out into some corners in the time-honoured dubwise spirit of transcendental electronic music. elsewhere brushed percussion and disembodied vocals shape out a more sinister message, lending themselves to a sound world both immersive and disorientating in one fell swoop.

after an incredible summer that saw the diynamic label release more big hits from boss solomun and hot talents adriatique, as well as hold down their fantastic outdoor parties in ibiza, the hamburg house stable is unleashing a brand new series of four various artists eps called four to the floor - four eps with four tracks each, focussing on the dancefloor. the vinyl includes adownload code.

limited warehouse find... played by karotte, nick curly, sebo k, sascha dive, loco dice.... carlos soza aka dj sneak made a kindof comeback last year restarting his magnetic label with us and we promise - loud and clearly: zmag 23 will do its magic and the damage done to make him stay on the up. easy and cool , demanding and bright with a1 track >doing the dew< being the kind of uberbomb of the ep. centuring around the familiar >doo da doo< being as much very swingy jackin house as it could and as much jack in the box as it must. side b is equally as powerful with >the game< & >the science<, 2 tracks that explode with massive jackin beats and unrelentless grooves. these tracks will keep you bouncing until you drop of exhaustion. sneak is back and no, sneak wont let down!
