the new album from fat freddys drop on cd.

new album by fumiya tanaka. eight fantastic tracks.

terence fixmerÕs path through the changing techno landscape of the past 20 years has been anything but direct. indeed, the french born producer, musician and planete rouge label founder has long been influenced by the periphery of continental european dance music subgenres from electronic body music, new beat and acid, before combining them into his own pioneering hybrid of futuristic, ebm-inflected techno with classic releases such as 2001Õs muscle machine or the collaborative between the devil lp with nitzer ebbÕs douglas mccarthy as fixmer/mccarthy. while the sound in recent years has been rediscovered and recast in diverse contexts by a new generation of producers, through the cortex sees fixmer gravitating toward a different kind of industrial-tinged electronics, led as much (or more) by analogue sequencers, melodies and ultra-saturated sounds of synthesizers than drums and percussion. across eight tracks at a compact but varied 40 minutes, the lp touches on an aesthetic hinted at in recent ostgut ton releases (2016Õs beneath the skin ep and 2017Õs force ep), revealing a sonic narrative through noisy, screaming synth/vocal riffs with a jagged, guitar- like post-punk sensibility.

oddball space disco/funk tracks, composed between 1970 and 1985. big tip! a master of the mixing board, from the late 60s until the 90s bernard estardy was the wizard of french musical recordings. as head of cbe studios, he shaped everything from gŽrard mansets concept albums to claude fran�ois hit singles, fran�oise hardys delicate tear-jerkers and michel sardous soul-stirrers. this giant had his hand in the whole range of mainstream french music by making his studio a veritable playground for experimentation. his legendary album la formule du baron, released in 1969, and the eight lps of production music he made between 1974 and 1978 for tele music are vivid proof. in the cbe studio, which she runs today, his daughter julie estardy discussed his singular career.

salvation is found by identifying thesis and antithesis of a logically conceived duality as a receptive polarity which is then synthesized and expressed on a higher level. thereby practicing what is preached is the all-embracing love in the presence of the creator. the purest original state pre-dating the judgmental so called >fall of man< in unity with life itself is the principle of holiness and the root of inner peace. glory to g-d!

to those familiar with the output of cologne-based imprint firm from back in the early Ô00s, the name of geiger, alias nass, shall undoubtedly ring a bell. herald of an hedonistic melange of funk- soaked electro pop and guitar-riddled synth music, sitting somewhere close to acts like ween and junior boys, alexander geiger is about to break a eight-year hiatus with the drop of his debut album under the newly-founded moniker of fahrland. a release that both encompasses a healthy dose of the discoid tropes from the firm era but also aspires to split with a segment of it, geared towards exploring further undisclosed fringes of his shape-shifting sound universe, Ômixtape vol.1Õ is the fruit of a decisive move from the sleepless berlin to the peaceful countryside landscapes of fahrland Ð a lushly forested area near potsdam which youÕll have understood played an essential role in geigerÕs longed-for return.

seeking the overwhelming vibration of the genuine sound wave and its profound echo on the soul, kenneth james gibson has spent his career experimenting under a variety of aliases like as many brushstrokes to an ever polymorphic palette - successively releasing as apendics.shuffle, bell gardens, reverse commuter, dubloner, kenneth james g., kj gibbs, bal cath, eight frozen modules, and premature wigÉ the list is long. near to two years after his first incursion on kompakt with his third studio lp the evening falls , gibson returns with in the fields of nothing , his second full-length delivery for the cologne-based imprint.

fokuz recordings eighty eight - this is fokuz is the labels 2017 various artist compilation including remixes by spectrasoul, technimatic, break and original tracks by label regulars anthony kasper, satl, mutt, the vanguard project and silence groove.

this is the first ambient release from asc on auxiliary, since 2011 s collaborative album with sam kdc - decayed society. as with the majority of asc s recent work, this release continues the theme of his fascination with space. the term trans-neptunian objects refers to dwarf planets and asteroids that lay beyond neptune, and are usually found in the kuiper belt. with that being said, you can fathom a guess that this album is seriously deep space ambient, and you wouldn t be wrong. a total of eight tracks spanning 73, which take you to the deepest regions of our solar system.

since the millennium 2raumwohnung unites electronic sounds and pop melodies in a variety of ways. the early singles wir trafen uns in einem garten (2000) or 2 von millionen sternen (2001) playfully communicated the life-style of a new berlin. the duo, consisting of inga humpe and tommi eckart, started as a studio project and continued to develop via eight album productions. at the same time, an important impulse included developments in techno or house music. their most successful album 36 grad stayed in the german album-charts for 33 weeks, 2raumwohnung continued to expand their stage range as well.

for its ninth release, italian label spazio disponible looks to countryman marco shuttle for a first full length. systhema comes three years after his last album on his own eerie label and finds him again focussing on an absorbing ambient techno style across eight enthralling cuts. shuttle layers sound in subtle ways and has a meticulous attention to detail that results in a cinematic techno style that is cavernous and hypnotizing. always operating in a region where ambient, techno and heady soundtracks become one, with this album marco shuttle once again confirms he is one of the finest sonic sculptors out there.

the third time is the charme...thatÕs right. thus, the joy about the third album by marek hemmann is huge. likewise, the third album is perceived as an important brand which ought to show the actual extent of a musicianÕs potential. either hold oneÕs ground or dare something new? marek hemmann is not deterred by such expectations. he was merely in the mood for new tracks. the eight newcomers on ÒmomentsÓ sound accordingly - easygoing, detached and characterised by the same profoundly and harmonically balanced musicality for which marek hemmann is world-renowned. anyhow, a Òjust continue as beforeÓ mentality is not an option for the berliner by choice - from the beginning, his music effort- lessly blurred the established genre lines. in this vein, his new work is influenced by a great candour. as already accomplished with his highly esteemed albums Òin betweenÓand ÒbittersweetÓ, in ÒmomentsÓ marek hem- man takes the listeners - and certainly the dancers - on a journey through different spheres of contemporary electronic music.

sound and rhythm are effective means of individuals self-defence in face of chaotic steamroller of everyday life. hiding in a familiar yet simultaneously hardly recognisable parallel space does not have to result from the need of escaping the world or nurturing one’s ego. too many times to mention, music appearing under recognition imprint served as a peculiar type of a vehicle of survival and a tool for internal transformation. hideland, new record by polish electronic music producer jacek sienkiewicz is released precisely year after drifting, which largely explored tropes of classical club techno sound. eight (nine in extended cd version) tracks comprising this album go beyond easy-to-pigeonhole genres, creating a microcosm of utopian sound constructs. surprisingly unobvious and precisely composed release could be fascinating both for loyal fans and for new listeners looking for threads of experimentalism. its another intriguing proposal in jacek sienkiewiczs growing discography, but above all, a laboratory where dreams and artistic visions metamorphose into concrete reality.

dani sicilianoÕs latest album is self-titled for a reason, it represents a personal statement crafted by daniÕs own hand - feeding off her accomplished past in experimental pop and electronica and reaching to new tones and timbres in a celebration of musical liberation. culminating eight years of songwriting, production research and sonic exploration, circus company is proud to present dani sicilianoÕs third solo album

those of a certain vintage may have a soft spot for global underground s after hours series, which promised to soundtrack -the party after the club- by joining the dots between woozy progressive house, deep techno, electronica and, of course, ambient. some eight years after the last installment, the long-running club brand has decided to re-launch the series. apparently, this latest installment took a year to put together, and featured tweaked, edited and gently reworked tunes layered up for a more enjoyable listening experience. musically, it sticks to similar territory to previous installments, updating the sound a little via tracks and remixes from ewan pearson, lawrence, scuba, matrixxman, michael mayer and joris voorn.

for the second installment of their mixtape series, hospital records has turned to devonian duo fred v and grafix, who epitomize the label s festival-friendly outlook. they don t disappoint, either, dropping an action-packed mix that shoehorns 32 tracks into an hour of non-stop dancing fun. after kicking off with the guitar laden hip-hop wooziness of cyantific s high water mark and dimension s tear-out beast whiplash, they variously touch on liquid, hospital style disco drum and bass, and harder flavours. happily, they find room to include eight exclusives from a variety of producers, including a previously unheard vip re-work of their own summer smash major happy

lost my dog co-founder pete dafeet unleashes his highly anticipated debut album the root, the soul. a musical record of the year he married, pete evokes a sense of house music s glorious past in these eight beautifully crafted cuts. early dj support from chez damier, ian pooley, charles webster, milton jackson, manuel tur, moodymanc, blakkat.

the second coming. finlands otherworldly electro lords blastromen return to the dominance electricity mothership to deliver their much anticipated second longplayer. the eight new compositions featured on *reality opens* continue where their debut album *human beyond* left off in the year 2010 and lead straight to the next level. sophisticated arangements with epic synth melodies and atmospheres, haunting electro breakbeats and elaborate vocoderized lyrics prove once again that blastromen are a class of their own.

capsize recovery takes the listener on a ride through a very dark universe of gloomy sounds and atmospheres. the eight rather longish tracks of the album are characterized by senkings epic signature sounds - creepy hovering bass lines, clean and slowed down drums, paired with oscillating and sometimes fierce synth melodies and shots. with his extremely deep and dubby arrangements that explore the depths and abysses of bass heavy music, he again is able to create soundscapes that convey a subtle sense of unease or even fear, as if they were the soundtrack to a mysterious and disturbing film

fourth album, is an album labeled, engineered, mixed and mastered by steve albini. and its pretty obvious: fourteen tight songs, full-on (faithful to the motto hammered by albini: feature it, or fuck it), carved in eight days, by five people (drums, guitars, keyboards, bass), without ever leaving the studio.

home & garden is the debut album from the already established artist jay shepheard due for release in early 2013. shepheard has been releasing 12s and singles, and remixes steadily since 2007, blending disco and deep house seamlessly into his own unique sound.

only 9 years after its official opening, watergate has become one of the worlds most prominent underground electronic music institutions. in no small part due to its picturesque location running directly alongside the river spree, its wall to wall led dance floor installation and most of all, its consistent flow of first-rate international talent performing every week. watergates presence and influence has spawned many side projects including a boutique-style mix cd series now in its 8th volume. a whoÕs who of the clubs regular talent and resident artists such as sascha funke, sebo k, dop, ellen allien and others have all contributed to the aesthetically pleasing series, now regarded as collectors items. for the eight installment in our mix series, we bridge the gap between two global capitals of techno: berlin, and detroit, home of lee curtiss who delivers a forward-thinking mix, inspired by time spent living in both cities. lee is one of a new generation of techno visionaries from the motor city, that includes his visionquest collaborators ryan crosson, shaun reeves and seth troxler, who are putting their own unique spin on their citys most famous underground musical export. based between detroit and berlin for the last four years, lee has a fundamental grasp of what makes both dancefloors at watergate tick, and this enduring love and understanding of the space clearly shines through in his mix. building on the raw soul and funk of those who have blazed a trail before him, on both sides of the atlantic, lee brings his own subtle melodies and keen sense of dramatic tension to the fore in a mix that encompasses all that is vibrant and exciting about underground techno in 2011

kompakts labelchef finally returns with his first album in eight years..

the debut solo album from the former oasis songwriter and guitarist. .as leader of oasis since the band s inception in 1993, noel gallagher was at the helm for their global success, from the launch of their first indie uk singles in 1994 to their final shows together in the summer of 2009. over the course of their seven consecutive #1 studio albums, oasis sold over 70 million records worldwide and charted 22 consecutive top 10 uk hits from 1995 to 2008 (including eight 1s), creating an astounding historical record.

andy vazs straight vacationing, his first full-length artist album, since the 2006 release of repetitive moments last forever, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but theyll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring house music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call house. straight vacationing dives into the genre in all its rich variety: from deep melodic, early chicago influenced acid house, jacking-jedi mind tricks to disco-type grooves and last but not least excursions into bizzaro world, with a vaz typical almost psychedelic experimental-edged sound, its all there.

with 17 years industry experience, innumerable remixes, several hit singles and eight albums under his belt, dutch dj/producer ferry corsten knows how to knock up a tune. the bombastic title of his latest album, l.e.f. - loud, electronic, ferocious Ð seems overtly aimed at quieting any doomsday critics that are still flouncing around prophesying the death of dance music. the contents certainly state a passionate case for the genre-s ongoing vitality and ability to reinvent itself, as corsten lets loose a take-no-prisoners tirade of electro, trance, pop and techno. the visceral pulse of -are you ready- opens the onslaught, preparing the listener for retro anthems such as the recordÕs first single -fire- (featuring simon le bon), and -into the dark- (with howard jones), and a storming series of trademark trance cuts - -beautiful-, -posession- and a reworking of old favourite -galaxia-.

italic would like to announce antonellis new album soulkiller. it is stefan schwanders aka antonellis 6th album and was produced using analogue drummachines, synthesizers and sequencers only and recorded live without any overdubs onto an old-school tape recorder. the result is amazing: antonellis house music on soulkiller is so incredibly rough and emotional that it reminds of the garage rock from the stooges. and the tracks sound as if esg was doing cover versions of moodymann. moreover, you will find flamboyant pop references, from bohannon to te r ry hall. the first single release taken from this album is the track hamilton and comes in the original version and in a remix version
