new years deal - delsins next trick is a debut double 12 from sentomea, an amsterdam native, real name sander schuurman, you might not have heard of but a real synth freak. exclusively producing his music in hardware-based live takes, and that gives rise to perfectly imperfect stuff that feels visceral and alive. often making music with a visual connection, this ep is full of versatile 909 beats and fizzing electronic textures. relative solace is up first and is a frosty house trip with bell textures and melancholic strings sounding all celestial and heavenly. wander is all about a sludgy 909 groove being lit up with bright strings and icy hi hat ringlets as dissonant pads stretch and skew all about the arrangement then fortitude boogie has classic detroit pads, a lovely broken rhythm and a funkateer bassline that makes the whole cut dance and emotional dance. fluid is more stripped back and clean, with rubbery 909 drums plodding below w atery, gurgling synth sounds up top and this most expressive and textural ep closes with the experimental fm synthesis that is matter with its raw, off beat grooves and glassy surfaces, and finally reminiscent, a horizontal, star gazing cut that encourages you to lay back and day dream in the grass.

heko records welcomes pancratio, one of the messengers coming from a dark corner of space to share his sonic science with humanity.

stuck in the depths of a dark alley, blocked by yet another breeze, hitting a stone wall, road sign ahead: dead end. impasse. “cul-de-sac”. hip-hop. the original, some would say, official music of the late 20th century bronx. some say it has endured it’s fair share of distractions, detractors and defectors. some say it has murdered itself, having been abandoned by its so-called best men, those who have gone off in other directions, or who have, simply, just beat-retired. yet, there are plenty of soldier monks still out there, prepared to sweat it out in the temple of machinery and mics. low cut honored this cause four years ago, with his mpc crafted minimalist version of ny minute and he’s back to ring the bells and unsheathe the samples!

180 gram heavyweight vinyl repress with download code in gatefold sleeve.
flying saucer attack’s self-titled debut album, released in 1993, was commonly known as ‘rural psychedelia’ – an apt description for the rough-hewn soundscapes they crafted. these bedroom recordings made a virtue of the otherworldly, hissy mechanics of four-track cassette-to-vinyl duplication. pearce realised that you didn’t need to layer 16 guitar tracks in an expensive studio to make a big noise. recording directly on to a four-track resulted in a thick, distorted, abrasive sound that suited his needs perfectly.

mit ihrem debütalbum -polyamour- bot clara moto 2010 eine frische, intelligente und dezidiert weibliche perspektive auf das männlich dominierte techno-gerne. ihr nachfolger -blue distance- ist ein ebenso persönlich geprägtes werk, das aber gleichzeitig komplexer, nachdenklicher und auch melancholischer ausfällt, ohne dabei auf clubkompatible momente wie -hedonic treadmill- oder -placid kindness- gänzlich zu verzichten.

beranek’s debut album, “sound of danger”, was released on mind expanding records in november 1981. nowhere near as accessible as the previous single, the album fared poorly commercially. withdrawing from the single’s fun, kitsch pop, the album is cool and static, driven by thin rhythm boxes, cold synths, and glacial guitars. taking heavy cues from david bowie, all of the songs are sung in a nasally english accent, a rare occurrence in norway at the time. the lyrics are melancholic, but tinged with paranoia. there are also upbeat tracks that evoke a prog or glam sensibility a la king crimson, alan parsons, or roxy music. all songs have been remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. housed in the original jacket featuring red, black, and white lines that evoke a visualized richter scale designed by monica moltzau. each copy includes a 2-sided 8x11” insert with lyrics and an autographed press photo of beranek.

konstrukt 005. the gravitational pull of the moon lets the water flow gracefully. way off past awareness, in and out of reach like a half remembered dream.

steve monite’s album, only you, is a prime slab of nigerian boogie. it’s sinewy, compact and sexy, a little bit of disco mixed with a big dose of funk. loose and groovy, it’s a sonic seduction from another dimension. with legendary producer tony okoroji at the desk, and influential musician and sound engineer, nkono teles, creating magic on the synth, the title track is raw and melodic, dark and sweet at the same time.

a sensational mix of west african afrobeat tradition and contemporary european urban culture, reminding us of ebo taylor, for the traditional element, and hugh masekela for its mix with jazz. daniel dzidzonu takes it further down the jazz road and introduces even rock and fusion. as a result this record is one of the key albums of the new afrobeat generation, or in the case of daniel, the afro-european generation of today.

selbstbetiteltes debütalbum der londoner sängerin und produzentin kelly lee owens, die dream-pop-melodien auf einer klangfläche aus dubbiger electronica und stumpfen unterwasser-bassimpulsen singt. an der entstehung des geisterhaften “keep walking” war uk-techno-produzent daniel avery beteiligt, während die derzeit gefeierte norwegerin jenny hval auf der leadsingle “anxi” ein gastfeature gibt.

22.02.85 is the new album from bastien keb. initially conceived as a concept album about a stripper lost in the city (like a straight-to-video follow up to showgirls), 22.02.85 has a distinctly nocturnal edge to it. the city at night, lost in a crowd, abandoned petrol stations, empty kebab shops, broken florescent lights. like a half-forgotten dream, familiar yet unnerving. he says all the songs are all about girls apart from two about a big lug. you may catch a phrase here and there but the context is all in the feel: there s a melancholy edge, but i don t wanna depress people. sad but hopeful? if that s possible.

what can you expect? take the best fusion-band ever (chick coreas return to forever), some james brown funk, synth-fun like tangerine dream and even a bit of hardrock, and youre getting close. this is zappa, the flemish zappa: cool,funny, sad, difficult,no record for those who love the traditional verse-chorus-verse, and so probably as uncommercial as it can get

oshana delivers the second release of yoyaku’s sub label yoy, serving up a trio of club-ready cuts.

hannulelauri have lain silent for more than half a decade, the finnish duo seeming to have disappeared into musical memory. but thankfully this is not the case. resurrected, the pair return with a quartet of space inspired disco from their vaults. starting off with the warming plinks of -earth-, the duo then dazzle with the laser show of -crossing-. the flip keeps the goodness flowing. -blinds- strips back basslines to let bright bars and strings shine before the playful whimsy of -dream- closes. tracks from a decade ago and still sounding as fresh as ever.

deep dubby, dark punchy techno, from architectural showing off his natural groove.

born marco sterk, he certainly doesnt come from a standard dj background. a former skate rat who grew up loving american post-hardcore and 90s hip-hop as much as early warp records, hes been affiliated over the years with amsterdam institutions such as rush hour, red light records (where you ll find him most weekdays!) and, of course, dekmantel itself. still, thers no question that hes always followed his own path, even during the years that playing his favorite records meant that he was occasionally clearing dancefloors

hotflush welcome lara wehbie aka blursome to the ranks with her debut ep “rendition of you”. raised in north carolina and currently residing in brooklyn, wehbie has come a long way since beginning to work on music in 2011 as a way of channeling her diagnosed depression and anxiety. she describes her work as a transitional darkness, something she says defined her sound even before she could manage the software she uses to make it. in her own words, “rendition of you ep signifies major transitions in my life over the past year and how my environment truly played a role in handling situations. it s a testament to how much happier i am now than i used to be. i still struggle but i m truly thankful for the influences i have around me that have made me a better individual and artist.” along the way she has attended the red bull music academy bass camp in 2015, and after an appearance on scuba s 2016 fabric mix, she debuts on the label with an experimental six track ep. side a of -rendition of you- introduces listeners to her experimental use of vocals and heavy percussive influences from the left field genre. side b dives straight into dance floor material with pounding kicks and and interjecting vocals, but then slowly winds down into a more melancholic ending with piercing synths rattling through to the last drop.
