three years ago, baths dropped his startlingly beautiful debut, cerulean. released on anticon, the record blurred the line between post-modern pop and the la beat scene with devastating emotional clarity. its tone was as celestial as its album title, taken from a shade of blue typically used to describe the sky.

prime numbers return with m7. the first side is taken by a remix of wireman’s >armour<, the original of which was included on pn04 released at the end of last year. the remix is from move d (deep space network, source records), he ups the tempo and in trademark fashion softens the surfaces of the original, warming the core of the track whilst creating a bass heavy groove with twisting beats, synths and a husky hypnotic vocal sample. the flip includes two tracks. to start we have >crushed< by actress. darren j. cunningham aka actress runs the much lauded werk records and this track is taken from his limited cd only album >hazyville< (released on werk in the autumn of last year ) >crushed< is slo-mo, extra bass heavy, low slung house with an addictive lofi synth riff and submerged strings. the track bumps along with hiss and crackle to good affect before turning into a badalamenti-esque loop to finish. to round things off be, the up & coming manchester based producer provides >when you left<. be cut his teeth with the chicago based still music and a great al hudson reedit which found extensive dj support on its release. >when you left< is a shuffling downbeat house groove with a jazz sentiment featuring deep rhodes keys and clipped drums, the track breaks up into a bluesy accapella section then builds up to a more direct 4/4 groove to the end

we always treat family affairs with greatest care. you just dont know where this all ends ... most likely in shaking your head in disbelief. yet, in the case of siblings lysann and gunnar zander we have thrown all doubts overboard. by no means in at the deep end given that both of them have been making music together their whole lives: acoustic, electronic, in the depths of soul and jazz, or in the wide world of the dance floor.

making a clean break with the poisonous digital dubstep rhythms in his first ep, dogboy’s basement to the attic is an fearless musical odyssey where the confines of this world end in intriguing organic sounds. in a way that wishmountain or burnt friedman would, dogboy scrutinizes the boundaries between experimentation and pure dance music. using recordings made in the different rooms of his family home, the four tracks on the ep start with laying down the subtitle emotional cool yet wobbly riddim card on the table, before gradually rising the subs and the pressure into a rave like burst of pride. futuristic, organic, progressive and utterly baffling, what makes basement to the attic so successful is it is purely unique.

chris spero (otherwise known as uk house and techno producer glimpse) and hypercolour co-founder and producer, alex jones, return once again as dense & pika to the hotflush fold with move your body back. having crept out of the shadows back in 2011 with a collection of white labels released through their own eponymous imprint, dense & pika went on to bolster their rising profile with the release of their hotflush debut (crispy duck) which landed late last year as well as with their memorable live set at hotflushs recent boiler room takeover. there is nothing chin-strokingly complicated or needlessly over-worked about their productions. they make interesting techno aimed at the dance floor and move your body back continues with this central aesthetic. the three track ep plunders percussive depths by way of stern machine rhythms, swollen low-end grit and the echoing, anthemic elements of warehouse rave techno. the title track of the ep may already be familiar to many having appeared on their resident advisor podcast in march and is already being played out by maya jane coles, boddika and adam beyer, amongst others.

ok, first of all i want to reveal a myth: these infotexts are mostly writtenby the labelowners themselves, not by hard-working editors. so what happens, when the guy behind a label releases his own music? well, either he is a well-organised deadline-machine and he asks somebody capable of doing this stupid job, or he realizes:
>oh fuck the distribution whats to do their work and they needed thissheet weeks ago...< so in the end, hes gotta do it himself: of course,now i could tell you how great this record is (what it is!) and what ahell of a motherfucker i am (also true!)... but i prefer telling yousentimental other bullshit instead... :)
this ep marks a newbeginning in my career. since some time now, >the fog burns off< and we get more and more stable in the buisness. last year we were on the road quite a bit and we found many new friends. people from other cities, who believe in the same things, who do similar stuff and who are of the same kidney as we are. so that makes me very happy, which reflects in the music. for the first time i feel like coming home, although we are at the beginning of our journey into the industry yet.

superb new diagonal release! 1st edition on red vinyl also comes in a screen printed poly jacket.
john cage once stepped into an anechoic chamber expecting to hear silence. instead, he heard the low-end throb of his own blood pulsing through his body. this is the story that gave blood music, the first new act on diagonal, their name. it is an appropriate one too: simon pomery, the creative lead and only ever-present member of the band, strikes his guitar with screwdrivers, mallets and his own bare fists, frequently putting real blood into the blood music that spits violently from the band.

straight out of a midlands bunker, we bring you he/at, and this 4 track debut hits hard.

ltd 2013 repress, vinyl only release. dutch newbie ivano tetelepta steps up to the plate for his 2nd release on fear of flying, >i think about you< is a sleek slow burning groove with hypnotic undertones, the repeated female vocal and sharp hi hats giving the track its dance floor impetus. >taksi< takes an altogether different path - pumping up the beats for a slice of pure peak time phunk whilst >open moment< injects a light melodic feel over dubbed out beats - one for early mornings and a fine way to end a really well balanced release.

after sides from matthew burton, seuil and albert schwartz, sammy dees ultrastretch label returns in 2013 with volkan akin. a regular presence at berlin institutions like club der visionäre, akin has been slowly rolling out his brand of prickly, spaced-out club tracks since the end of the last decade, both under his own name and as v for volkan. but if volkan akin has up until now been unfamiliar beyond germany, his ultrastretch debut, voltage, featuring an absolute beast of a ricardo villalobos remix, stands to turn more than a few heads in his direction. densely packed and intricately constructed, voltage is an extended groove you can get lost in. cymbals ring softly amidst whirrs of faintly melodic clicks, scratches and voices. but at the center of akins churning, percussive arrangement lies a warm and weighty kick sure to keep dancers pinned to the floor. like so many great perlon records, voltage can be taken as a deeply considered exercise in sound design or as a deadly club track simultaneously, with akins musical sophistication and knack for an inviting beat working hand-in-hand. the original mix spends over 11 minutes unraveling, but as you fall further into the swirl of akins interlocking rhythms, youre likely to stop counting. a shorter constant voltage mix evokes sunrise, pulling back the originals heft to reveal gorgeous pads and hints of organic rhythm. ricardo villalobos, sammys longtime label mate at perlon and a producer who likely needs no introduction, digs deeper into the thump at the heart of voltage on his acdc remix. focusing on the originals wisps of melody, villalobos turns in a warm, zoned-in remix that feels of a piece with the singular techno trips found on his recent lp dependent and happy
