moresounds has such a legit and individual quality to his music. it has humour and light heartedness but will also destroy a dance-floor in true sound clash style. so when he casually sent fracture the warriah vip he knew he had to do something with it. it was a perfect fit for the astrophonica apha ltd series, moresounds’ individual style and individually hand screen printed sleeves. warriah vip sees moresounds aka germain bigou revisit his scorcher from 2017’s gradients compilation. pure sound killer material straight from moresounds parisienne lab. the breaks have been smashed and the clash samples have been dubbed out in that unmistakable analogue heavy style. released on limited edition single sided 10inch vinyl with hand screen printed dual colour (black & white) 3mm spined reverse board matte sleeves + black paper inners.

clubbing is a source of euphoria: a weekly, often daily escape, a respite from the grind. that culture and its landmarks – some of london’s best venues and many countless pubs - are slowly disappearing for good. on last night, which was recorded in all four corners of london with marc pell (micachu and the shapes), lv, rob marfarlane and james anderson, benin city take an album-long look at the dual nature of london’s nightlife.

cocoon say: tim green will be returning to cocoon for his first release on the label since march 2016, with an atmospheric new dual single. echo/they want us to fall down. a cinematic production offering heavy shades of emotion, led by deep chords and rattling percussive sweeps from the expectation-defying producer..

this autumn, wah wah 45s are very proud to present their latest signing, an outfit who ve garnered huge praise from jools holland, are darlings of the guardian s music reviews pages, and have set festivals alight up and down the country with their unique melange of sounds. for a good few years, honeyfeet has been a conduit for the ideas and expressions of an exotic mixture of manchester based musicians. jazz? yes, some of that! folk? stick that in there! hip-hop? i thought you d never ask! someone once called it folk-hop and barrelhouse-pop, and that s just vague enough to make sense. it helps that they are fronted by ríoghnach connolly, real world s newest signing and -a remarkable singer and flautist who can ease from irish traditional influences to soul- (the guardian). this extraordinary band s debut single for wah wah 45s, sinner, was originally affectionately known as boingy squelch, after the unconventional sounds trombonist biff roxby used in his early demos. ríoghnach conveys the story of a woman who never intends on staying at home -chained to the sink- - -i may be a sinner, but i m not a slave-. in that way, the song is a rejection of outdated, traditional roles. since their previous album, 2013 s it s a good job i love you, keyboardist john ellis jumped on board as full-time member, bringing his unique musical presence. this enabled the development of a more texturally adventurous style, as witnessed with the dual atonal solo between himself and guitarist ellis davies on sinner. similarly, for their next lp, orange whip, engineer, bassist and spiritual guide lorien edwards makes his honeyfeet recording debut, so completing the -kitchen- of this very special band. sinner is released on limited 7- vinyl (100 copies only!) on october 20th and comes complete with a woozy, low slung club-friendly mix from former innocent sorcerer, polish dj and producer envee. the album, orange whip, will be released on wah wah 45s in the summer of 2018.

somne debuts on just this. the italian producer, whose real name is federico maccherone, presents his first release of 2017 – a solo ep marrying the same ethereal, wide-angle synthesis and intricate drum programming that appears on standout work for boddika’s nonplus imprint and the afterlife label. more than ever, maccherone shows his range – rolling, meditative recordings sit comfortably alongside some more overtly dance floor material, with both approaches bound by the same high-end production values listeners and dj’s alike have come to expect from the somne project. in various ways, the ep offers a certain degree of insight into maccherone’s dual identity as a producer of both clinical, dance-floor fare as well as a cerebral, leftfield work – and in turn, how the artist draws together these two strands of creative endeavour to craft unique and profoundly emotive electronic music. nods to classic idm and ambient sit at the periphery of the recordings, although the main focus is on the propulsive, contemporary techno derivatives – from warping, half-time opener divided love, with its crisp, white noise washes and clinical use of distortion – through to endgame’s exacting, peak-time drive. and whilst the form shifts across the ep from half-time, polyrhythmic work to more direct 4x4 compositions – everything remains bound by the same exquisite, otherworldly atmosphere that touches on the grandiose whilst maintaining a gloriously introspective bent.

musically and emotionally, superpitcher’s third full-length studio album, the golden ravedays is a one sound autobiography that exhibits the skill, feeling and style that the artist has honed over a period of twenty years, musically, and forty-plus-years, emotionally. and full-length it is: the golden ravedays is an epic album of 24 tracks that was released in january 2017 and is stretching over 12 respective chapter albums during a one-year period.
the eighth piece of the golden ravedays puzzle will be released on hippie dance in august 2017. number 8 of the series introduces two tracks that will take you to the far side of somewhere you’ve never been before. they are both reminiscent of outer space blues playing spooky games in a dust bowl.

side a features tuesday paris texas a tastefully arranged track with vintage sounds passing nonchalantly through a wild western aural landscape. the music is announced like a cowboy movie dual complete with bar doors swinging on rusty nails in slow motion. mournful guitar strings swirl over a steady horseback galloping beat, expanding into a full-on-fire dance track. halfway through a woman’s haunted voice appears and disappears like an eerie siren, a gunshot is fired (was that a gunshot?), a man whispers “what!?” tuesday paris texas is in no hurry to give an answer.

side b features mirage a desert sound collage glued to a steady pulse that rolls and rolls, circumventing any destination. mirage is a contour map of no surprising peaks just undulating valleys of wistful cathodic sound creeks, sometimes veering off to plains in full view of the moon, in earshot of solitary wolf cries. like tuesday paris texas, mirage is testament of superpitcher’s versatile prospecting beyond the elemental sound tools of the electronic music trade.

panorama bar regular bwana unites his dual loves of vintage 90s electro and classic progressive trance on this three track ep for duskys 17 steps label. achieving widespread critical acclaim with last years techno homage to the akira soundtrack - capsules pride - on luckyme, bwana has since released eps on his club ready home aus and fort romeaus cin cin, as well as appearing on 17 steps with a cult remix of duskys ingrid is a hybri - itself something of a panorama bar favourite. on this ep, the illustrious producer presents three contrasting but cohesive tracks in the dark acidic three way is the hard way, hypnotic dark trance builder hell is other robots and classic electro homage on patrol for their control. completing the package, the inimitable avalon emerson bends three way is the hard way’ into a glitchy, percussive groover that builds crunchy layers of dark drums around the original’s twisted sonics.

with a wall-to-wall 21st century freshness, light years past any concept of vogue, or any linear genre lines, norwegian quartet rohey deliver music that bristles with energy and honesty, that grooves with the best funk, that has deep soul roots while keeping an eye on the broad expanse of a golden future. lead vocalist rohey taalah brings all the emotional complexity you would expect of a classic jazz or soul singer (and can withstand comparison with any with ease). ivan blomqvist s keys play a dual role of laying down old school sonics, while bringing a retrofuturistic hyper-urban tone (akin to british idm), while kristian b. jacobsen (bass) and henrik lødøen (drums) create a jazz-soul-funk hybrid rhythm section that ducks and weaves with supreme artfulness.
rohey have toured extensively throughout scandinavia, taking in just about every major jazz festival along the way. with the release of “a million things” on jazzland recordings in early 2017, their path can be expected to take them ever further: music this good can t be kept secret for long. “a million things” performs a balancing act that most pop artists have forgotten in these days of studio micro-editing: how to write and play a song with full and sincere conviction, while enjoying an artful expressiveness without making things unnecessarily difficult for the audience. this has been borne out by their nomination for best single at the scandinavian soul awards in 2015.

in this day and age vinyl releases are getting rare in drum & bass but still we at demand cherish them. requisites our brand new 6 part 33 rpm series is an ode to the vinyl culture. every release symbolizes one particular requisite that you’d evidently need to rock the so called black gold. here served by, what else could it be, a butler we start of with the headphones...
musically that includes the ever magnificent phil tangent who contributes misgivings, a roller that effortlessly switches from euphoria to dark tones. the legend big bud in collaboration with austria’s finest roygreen, protone & dual on gospodi. a smooth liquid outing that we just fell in love. the ever surprising eastcolors with naked skin that brings in low slung tempo with the vocal wonder tiiu and last but not least demand’s own nurtured talent phase who rounds of the first part with abundance. as the name suggests it is absolutely rich in form of vibes!
the statement that is pressed on the vinyl label couldn’t be more clear... listen to it and we’re sure you’ll fall in love.

duophonic mind is a 4 track release with 3 slow and heavy analog techno and a powerful remix by the emerging talent, estrato aurora.

the holy grail of brazilian music. a wicked afro psychedelic album. a joy to listen to from the beginning to the end! highly recommended! tip! pedro dos santos, born in rio in 1919, was a percussionist virtuoso, composer and inventor of instruments that apparently included oddities such as the tamba (electrified bamboo drum) and the mouth berimbau whistle. nicknamed perdo sorongo after the rhythm he invented, that features throughout krishnanda. a highly spiritual man who was regarded as a philosopher by many.

one of the most respected producers in the underground, anaxander, contributes two beautiful pieces of original music, and has one of them reworked by deep house heavy hitter, the mighty amir alexander. lost my soul (in yours) is twisted little number, with dual synth riffs echoing off each other for maximum effect. a question about you uses jazzy chords and flutes over its undeniable bassline to retain some soulful flavoring, but amir strips all of that away on his interpretation, preffering instead to let the acid and the warehouse vibes have their way, taking things right into a 6am rave nightmare. this is absolute must-have piece of wax!

munich’s zenker brothers arrive on index marcel fengler for the first time with pollioni, a four-track ep that captures the unique style that has brought the duo acclaim over a string of releases for tresor and their own ilian tape label since they combined their considerable production talents as a dual force in dextrous, charismatic techno.

second part of the pressure traxx silver series with tracks from giuliano lomonte, chris wood & meat and muanda & thilo dietrich. pressing on transparent vinyl.

a sublime three tracker that continues endless short history of releasing music that encapsulates an otherworldly beauty. the title track is a smooth deep dancefloor cut driven by a catchy chord pattern and crisp beats, while >vabene< encapsulates a rare exquisiteness with its chugging bassline and evocative melodic keys and already has a special place in clubbers’ hearts and minds after it was the opening track of lucas lauded set at sunday debauchery in nyc in june – a set he rates at the finest of the year so far. the ep is rounded out with the outstanding >la valse de la pertinence< that’s led by a call-and-response dual bass and key melody that drives the cut, making it simultaneously groove-ridden and sublime and spacey.

tiefschwarz beckon you to dominate my sensation with their latest single on the boys own souvenir. and with its booty-shaking, bass-bumpin funky house vibe, its ripe for the plucking on dancefloors across the world. the title track kicks things off with a dual attack of bass and hi-hat, urging us into its insistent groove. then it takes a firmer hold with its sultry vocals, shaking us around a bit in the process. with the carnivalesque atmosphere of seamy summers in rio, we welcome a funky percussive workout into the mix while a synthline squiggles around us. the breaks saucy vocal instructs us to allow entry into our very own adventure, percussion building to peak levels. lost in the moment, none can resist this kick, and bodies are lost in a dizzying swirl. b-sides include an energetic reimagining from the labels very own frankfurters, chris wood and meat, fresh from their recent smash triple s ep on souvenir and pascal feos & frank leicher manage to dial up the sleaze quotient, murking out the bassline and distorting the vocal.

reaching back through time to lay hands in the forges of metal, nycs children riff out the present with their debut, hard times hanging at the end of the world. formed through jam sessions by guitarists skyler spohn, jonny rad ollsin (formerly of vancouvers s.t.r.e.e.t.s.), and drummer adam bennati (of early man), the group laid waste to clubs in and around the city beginning in late 2006, and have kept shredding onward. tradition meets stamina head on throughout hard times six massive tracks. with intricate, narrative dual guitar work and a frenzied, wired demeanor children bring it all together: thrash advancements, serious girth, familiar passages crosscut with relentless speed, a formidable edge, and self proclaimed spiritual conspiracy party riffs.
