repress of the rsd release

limited repress with new artwork!
it s 6:66am when chinaski elbows his way on to the floor. leather jacket. metal studs. bare arms. tattoos. with his hand freshly stamped this newcomer brazenly strides into the bordello. his style? try to pin it down. beats parry and pound with the intensity of an ebm hammer. yet, strolling through those meaty kick drums stride shimmering melodies that sport elements of new beat, italo and techno. the rakish grooves of -surfin dead- occupies the a-side. bold rhythms fly in the face of burbling bass and cascading chords as chinaski takes control. a body pumping work out follows. -unschuld der sinne- throws beat shaped fists from the needle drop as a brawl breaks out. born in the smoke machines of belgium, this bruiser balances its rough edged rhythms with beaming bars. there s to be no relenting as the closer screams like a nitro-fuelled missle. -ab in die ewigkeit- soars is a muscle-bound sky rocket set to keep any floor rumbling to the break of dawn.

repress without 7 inch! five guys jamming together, each throwing in funk-nuggets from a finely honed appreciation & a shared love of the good groove. this studio project was compiled from a free-wheeling desire to just team up and play together, see what happens... the holy trinity of rhodes, clav and live bass, all wrapped up in a heavyweight rhythm section has provided the backbone to over 50 years of ground-breaking and floor-shaking black american music. the max graef band project channels this energy with the tight efficiency of the headhunters tag-teaming the new power generation, oh yeah - anyone expecting elbow patch, 6th form funk can think again, this is mosquito’s tweeter territory folks. from raw, p-funkin jams to punk-funk workouts & freestyle jazz flavours, dog pays homage and wears its influences proudly, while bringing a fresh take on the foundation funk that informs this collective’s own celebrated sample-house revival.

the instrumentals for andrew hung’s debut album “realisationship” on vinyl.

currently fizzing up summer crowds on his european tour, the argentinian renaissance man is testing his wares, as he prepares to unveil his third artist album at the turn of 2019. set for release on the martinez brothers perennial cuttin headz imprint, it will herald a fresh jacking chapter for the artist who famously refuses to sit still. an instant statement of intent, ‘so dope’, the first taster from the forthcoming long-player, lives up to its name with a thumping nyc swing, loose twanging slap-bass pops, trippy vox overlays, springy rhythmic elements and all essential conga rolls. with its concrete-thick groove, ‘so dope’ commands an equally robust remixer rollcall. which is exactly what the martinez brothers have recruited... the bossmen themselves get elbow deep with a warped and twisted bassline that snakes around the stately jacking beat, gradually becoming more warped and wonderful as the track progresses. djebali follows with a precision contrast as the vocal shots wrap themselves tightly around a timeless 909 beat and subtle tracks of venomous acid while heartthrob flips it into an all-out rolling techno experience. dope ain’t the word.

queeste emerges with the nocturnal sounds of haron s wandelaar, an album exploring his long-term interest in music s talent for inducing and affecting dreams, successfully turning listening into an act of transport, leaving you in the midst of falling asleep, at a junction of dislocation, hazily arriving in a liminal world. in wandelaar we hear haron s playful reaction against the confines of dance music, gathering energy from his estrangement from the scene and using it as a means to reorder and interrogate sound. the modest piano takes centre stage, allowing each solo note to becoming fertile and full, suspended and considered, guided by the principles of minimal composers such as john cage and ryuichi sakamoto. haron delicately translates sparse chords into a cinematic narrative of ascension, conjuring up a moony landscape, grey and desolate from afar, intricately detailed on approach. haron s wandelaar is available 6 july 2018 on lp. the vinyl release includes an art print by fallon does, who is also responsible for the graphic design of wandelaar. all tracks written and produced by haron aumaj, mastered by wouter for brandenburg mastering. words by jo kali.

the 7 year anniversary of dame-music continues! following the well-acclaimed various artists ep earlier this year, which included tracks from boo williams, the analogue cops and milton bradley vs bloody mary, dame-music is back and proud to present its 36th release, this time inviting two very special guests to share the record with label boss bloody mary. the melting point ep marks the fusion of three renowned producers including kink, thomas p. heckmann and bloody mary. it s no secret that these three are acid lovers, and their combination on this release shows three different takes on the acid sound. both kink and thomas p. heckmann need no introduction. bloody mary has followed their music for many years and the melting point ep marks the coming together of mary with two of her most respected acid producers, all on the one record. dame-music promises all three tracks will damage the dancefloor each in their own way, just be sure to play them loud. over the past 7 years, dame-music has shaped its identity by continuously releasing a distinct blend of techno and house music. 2018 shows no signs of slowing down, stay tuned!

a rare look into the discotheque era of waikiki, al nobriga’s “my last disco song” tells of a time when nightclubs lined kalakaua avenue and practically every hotel hosted live entertainment. seven days a week, locals rubbed elbows with visitors in discos like the point after, cock’s roost, garden bar, infinity, duke kahanamoku’s, foxy lady too, valentino’s, hawaiian hut—the list goes on.
