elbee bad is another great underground house pioneer from the formative days of nyc house in the late eighties. the true story of house music finally gets told... tip! like the burrell brothers, elbee bad aka lamont booker, is an early house producer from new york city. and the comparison doesnt stop there. elbee bad has also recorded under different aliases and has also remained largely unknown to a wider audience. he has also recorded for nu groove records, for which he has recorded his most famous material, but like the burrells he wasnt a nu groove fixture. bad recorded for a slew of other independent new york house labels like bassment, city limits, easy street, red heat, united states of america and then there was his own larhon records

Über die letzten jahre gelang es den the fresh & onlys sich in die herzen einer immer grösser werdenden schar von fans zu spielen. die fresh & onlys sind so eine richtige lieblingsband. es gibt eigentlich niemanden, der dem charme des sängers tim cohen und seiner mannen nicht verfällt. früher oder später kriegen sie sie alle. das who is who der amerikanischen underground labels (woodsist, in the red und captured track) rissen sich darum ihre platten zu veröffentlichen, auf dem all tomorrows parties festival sind sie sowas wie ein stammgast, und bands wie black lips und deerhunter haben ihre lieblingsband mit auf tour genommen. diesen herbst folgt ihr inzwischen viertes album, das endlich auch in europa erscheint, auf souterrain transmissions, der heimat von crocodiles, moon duo, zola jesus und coco rosie. >long slow dance< (oder auch l.s.d.) heisst das album. abermals geht es sehr romantisch zu und hittig, man fühlt sich an go-betweens erinnert und frühe (gute!) r.e.m., aber alles glücklicherweise nicht glatt sondern schrullig. es fällt da nicht leicht ein anderes label ausser pop im besten sinne zu verwenden!

twelve years ago tresor records released terrence dixons debut album >from the far future< - a personal homage to the art and ancestry of techno, culminating in a discursive and dream-like course through the genres many tomes, complete with subtle nods to key protagonists such as kraftwerk, derrick may and juan atkins. a luminescent and ethereal catalogue of tracks awash with shimmery synths and taught rhythmical programming - that still holds true today, >from the far future< made for a stunning first full length that cemented dixons already proven credentials from his population one work and utensil records foundations. after a string of stylistically rich releases - including another album, >train of thought<, this time for cologne-based label yore records - the detroit native returns to tresor records with >from the far future pt.2< - an ambitious, scopey and deeply personal sequel.

flying lotus alben sind für metaphysiker puzzleteile auf dem weg zur weltformel und für normalhörer grandiose geistererscheinungen. sein neues werk, eine kollage aus mystischen zuständen, träumen und schlafliedern, wirkt wie eine nachtreise. das aufeinanderprallen von kosmischen bassgewichten und computerisierten arrangements klingt musikalisch griffig wie nie zuvor, was auf eine beträchtliche entwicklung als produzent und komponist hindeutet, wie auch auf stets neu spriessende entwürfe von songfundamenten. bei der realisierung wirkten seine beiden gesangsmusen niki randa und laura darlington mit, thom yorke (radiohead) sowie die queen of leftfield r&b, erykah badu. flying lotus unternimmt seine intellektuellen sprünge, ohne dabei musikalische details wie das gewicht einer bassline oder den swing eines drumbeats zu vernachlässigen, so wie es viele master der soulmusik seit jahrzehnten vor ihm tun. >until the quiet comes< folgt dieser tradition, während es neue pfade für sich eröffnet - eine kombination, die einen wahren klassiker ausmacht!

smith & mudd are back in fine style on claremont 56, following up their excellent lp with this great double header! >sauna love< is the lead track, an uptempo, string laden boogie house affair with great vibes, bass, strings and punchy percussion all rolling along into the sunshine. on side-b >the surveyor< is a great piece of otherworldly electronic music, coming on like some weird cough medicine induced dream. the bass pulses along with mystery dialogue, light key flourishes and an intent that is delivered about 5 minutes in when the kick drops and the whole thing shifts into a latenight, alt disco bomb.

medical records is ecstatic to present the reissue of the essential >novels for the moons< by axxess. originally released in 1983, axxess is the brainchild of french multimedia artist patrick mimran. mr. mimran was co-director of lamborghini motors (along with his brother) at the time and fittingly released the album on the imprint lamborghini records. heavily influenced by german electronic pioneers klaus schulze, tangerine dream, and kraftwerk, mr. mimran commissioned the german engineer andreas bahrdt to build a custom complex synthesizer which eventually materialized into a 16 voice analog synthesizer of genius proportions.
presented on high-quality 180gram yellow vinyl in a limited edition of 1000 hand-numbered copies.

thinking too much/where the helios is juk juks second release on nommos. thinking too much is the most direct juk juk release so far. its peak time fare, aimed squarely at the dancefloor. the dreamy intro will fool the unsuspecting, sucking them in and propelling them on a tripped out ride on a techno ghost train, buffered by a cushion of warm throbbing bass. where the helios is the real dream side. a floating, hallucinogenic, spaced out drift, driven by a crisp, pared back rhythm and a gorgeous, woozy vocal- led melody. juk juks first release for nommos was unwrap/fall and before that his debut, winter turn spring/frozen, was put out by kieran (four tet) hebden on his highly regarded text label. all juk juks output to date has been critically acclaimed, coverage including fact magazine, pitchfork, mix mag, abeano, the fader amongst others. his releases have also received significant club and radio plays including mainstream radio 1 support from admirers giles peterson and rob da bank, who has promised support for this release. four tet said the room went off when playing thinking too much at a recent event.

fright returns after a long absence in which we sought refuge in hades during the hail storm of gothic hysteria that passed over earths minions. some may remember us from the breakthrough debut release from gatekeeper or the unholy italo-techno alliance we shared with antoni maiovvi. now finally, we return, this halloween, with our most ominous mission yet. naum gabo aka glasgows jonnie wilkes (1/2 of optimo) and james savage started their illustrious career with a trio of releases as naum for kompakts speicher series then have most recently gone on to release music on dissident, thisisnotanexit, endless flight, world unknown and most recently optimo music. created and recorded between 2010 and 2011 in their hottrax studio, naum gabo have come up with > the crystal line<, > galena< and > dmitris darkness<. specifically delivered in mind for fright, they keep true to the labels mission of releasing music for unseen films with 3 mid-tempo and certainly melancholic gems that also maintain an unmistakable ng groove for the stranger dancefloors we know and love. an absolute highlight, > the crystal line< is dedicated to the late, great kurt hauenstein aka supermax. superbly cut loud at 45rpm, this epic tribute is what vinyl addicts dream of hearing.

traxx - who has productions with international deejay gigolos and creme organization under his belt - is the man behind the third release from fledgling imprint lumberjacks in hell, following sterling efforts from spanish edits don rayko and the mysterious em vee. sprawled luxuriously across the a side is the epic 13 minute ode to danielle baldelli, >to the beat bizarre<, all tumbling drums, tangerine dream synths, and perfectly timed claps and keys. >an insane experiment<, influenced by ron hardy, clocks in at a meagre 09:47 and is characterised a straight up jacking rhythm, with junkyard drums, eerie synth squiggles and truly weird robotic gurgles trading blows before the track morphs into a full on acid wigout. in a word, awesome.

the revenge has quickly reached dizzying heights in recent years, conquering a style that escapes labeling and crowned the king of the edit.
this four track vinyl ep features tracks taken from his debut artist album titled >reekin structions< and each illustrates his talent for reinvention and reaffirms why he has become a spearhead for a new musical trend.

dont miss the next long awaited vinyl on night drive music. this time we gave the black gold to hypnos. hypnos (deepology, urbantorque, myhouse, box music) presents now his 2nd release on night drive music. he graduated from music school in guitar, and played keyboards in a rock band for a few years. he was member of the infamous >demoscene< in poland - an unofficial and underground group of like-minded people mixing music with street graphics. the original is a never ending dream between sweet deepness and techy elements. its hard to describe the tune. just listen please! remixes are coming from pawas, subsky and stefan mallmann.

here at bearfunk hq we firmly believe in perseverance. we keep asking questions until we get the right answer and with 6ft bear by our side the answer is usually yes. we kept asking ilija rudman to get in the studio and write us a killer lp but being the busy bee that he is it was hard for him to take the time out. we kept asking until he eventually caved in and went underground to record his first lp, >the reveal<. ilija is a devoted and passionate man when it comes to music. one of his prerequisites for recording an lp was that the recordings had to be made with the same techniques and equipment that inspired him to make music in the first place. so ilija hooked up with one of his studio mentors and got his dream line-up of synthesizers, roland jupiter 4 & 8, minimoog, roland sh2, juno 60 and his dream drum machines linn and oberheim dmx. these analogue machines fire up to create a warm and authentic vibe across the whole lp. we are reminded here that machines do have soul if used properly. we start proceedings with the wigged out boogie of >inspectors drive< which might be a little nod in the direction of wally badarous classic chief in< have all the ingredients of dj friendly hits. the lp reveals all the influences that ilija has experienced and it shows the talent that runs inside him as he is able to make such an amazingly retro lp sound like something from the future. we are sure in years to come this lp could become as important as the influences that inspired mr. rudman to make it.

the process of receiving and listening to demos is akin to the proverbial needle in a haystack - poorly labeled cd’s or mp3’s are handed out indiscriminately like flyers for strip clubs in times square (circa 1970). “i really think you are going to like this,” or “all nude girls,” and “dj ‘x’ played this at space,” or “24 hours live sex show…!!” but in the end, just like the harsh reality of a stripper in daylight, the demos fall well short of anything mildly interesting and certainly nothing you would bring home to mom… until madato… from the first group of tracks he sent it was clear that a nice guy from naples had sent us the needle we had been looking for. “naples may not be a place one would consider to be particularly inspiring, from its outside appearance, chaos, and plenty of junk on the streets - it takes a deeper gaze, beyond, and into madato’s dream world. madato is always looking at what’s beyond the waste. inside his dream box you might find laura palmer making out with ian curtis, charles bukowski writing a fairy tale, or perhaps john nash singing along to bauhaus songs…” file under: trippy disco inspired dance music, not defined by a genre but more of an attitude. post-punk undertones mixed with psychedelic sensibility

the fruhstucks sophomore release with racecar is a 180 degree turn from hats & cats. this is a far more refined yet purposely less polished release, still rife with emotion yet embodying a certain grace and maturation. much of this could be due to instrumentation. the fruhstucks have added strings to their vision with the addition of guitars by miguel boxerinlove and subsequently sutja gutierrez also plucking strings himself.

just close your eyes and listen to these three lush compositions, while your imagination paints brilliant abstract visuals deep in the alleys of your mind. keeping consistent with the previous ten aesthetic audio releases, the formula for this new gem remains an uncompromising plethora of very raw substance, innovation, and timeless music that will clearly stand on it own amongst deep dance aficionados across the globe. deep roots: begins this journey with this intense and twisted deep banger that is simply a dancers dream. thumping drums and melodic string arrangements get things jumping as you are very quickly taken to your special place. the dark symphony: is a sinister and grimy yet gorgeous piece of work all at the same time. lush chords and dark electronic sculptures spark an imaginary sense of euphoria as the art of dance holds your body ransom. climates: captures the sheer art and raw essence of deep underground dance. this dark beauty continues to build until your body renders itself to the rhythm, and then ultimately it fades … leaving a beautiful memory on the canvass in your mind.

unmixed triple vinyl release of the stress records retrospective, celebrating a decade of this fine label.

the environmental radiation dose on the moon ep is the first collaboration between zooloft and aconito records. the two labels are twinned in exploring the limits of techno, experimenting with structures and sequences and ultimately arriving at the place where the deep and dark sublimes. the ep opens with the child that was watching the moon a track lifted right out of the drone-techno hymnal. it starts with muddied, subterranean bass and builds not just outwards but inwards. filled with obtuse references and metallic rasps the atmosphere created is obscure and spectral. on the reverse the moon that was watching the child sounds like its been exposed to radiation. the sounds are distorted, as if created from samples of the genome unzipping. the arrangement is stunning, bells filter in and out and the layers smelt into one another. there is awe at work here, but its an awe that remains underpinned by terror. this release, mastered in berlin at the legendary calyx studio, is something of a record collectors dream. it will be released on solid silver vinyl in a very limited edition of just 200 copies. za000ltd should be enjoyed on wax, this wont be available digitally.
