awkward movements returns to release the debut from londons dodger man ? one of the most talked-about new producers of the last 12 months. and with good reason. dodger mans multi-instrumentalist background opened the door for his high-profile sets bombed with back-to-back dubs of his own creation. his workings played-out live have gained him a reputation as one of the top emerging djs, the height of which came following an impressive set at bloc weekend, after being hand- picked by joy orbison to share the bill. the natural alignment with awkward movements has served up his highly-anticipated debut record, and it doesnt disappoint.
short about the label: a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. were gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut, just the way we like it. fernando pulichino should be a familiar name to you, either as part of 2020 soundsystem or maybe his recent cover version of bauhaus >kick in the eye< on redux? anyway, we cherry picked 2 of his tracks, one for the peaktime and one for the good times.

the long term, super-productive story of class-act producers phonique and tigerskin continues with the next installment on ladies & gentlemen. over 4 tracks (and one more digital bonus) the pair explore their passionate, freaky and funky sides in this, perhaps the most functional release on the label yet! phonique throws us two hot ones with sandman and longdrink. the former skips through tripping, tooly and percussive territories while the latter goes all out with addictive rolling bass and hedonistic synth passages. marrying an old-school flavour with high-end, modern moments, phoniques side of this unmissable 12inch is just as strong as his legendary dj sets! tigerskin then takes centre stage with loop back in time and tonys riff. >in time< grows from a rolling drum array into a surging disco fueled killer, that whisks us away to a brighter age with its soaring strings!

our dutch counterpart onno is known for his dance floor mastery. his after school ep on upon you was a multifunctionalmover that could teach any lethargic raver a few aerobic moves. >hit me< is in the same league and is completely unsuitable for yoga and pilates, so hes succesfully targeted the blonde dance instructor once again. onno brings the a1 fatburner to a peak with his charming impertinence. thomas schuhmachers pimped version of this awesome rave stepper on b1 tugs and pulls at your pants dragging you kicking and screaming to the dance parquet, where you soon realize that you never want to leave, but for those of you that want to lose some weight also know that you always need to condition yourself and >ghetto talk< on b2 is the perfect bouncy tune for that hour or so on the treadmill.
