nach dem überaus erfolgreichen start mit veröffentlichungen von konzerten aus dem legendären hamburger club onkel pÖ im frühjahr des jahres und dem überwältigenden presseecho setzt das label jazzline in zusammenarbeit mit dem norddeutschen rundfunk die reihe ab oktober 2017 fort. sie war eine der großen stimmen des soul und des blues: esther phillips. die viel zu früh verstorbene künstlerin tourte in den 50er und 60er jahren durch die blues clubs der vereinigten staaten. erst mit ihrem discohit what a difference a day makes wurde sie einem größeren publikum bekannt und erreichte den kommerziellen höhepunkt ihrer karriere. das vorliegende konzert aus dem hamburger onkel pö zählt zu einer ihrer letzten großen auftritte. das vom ndr aufgezeichnete konzert im „onkel pö“, mit kraftvollen begleitern in der band und sehr enthusiastischem publikum, dokumentiert auf gleich zwei cd’s die außergewöhnlichkeit dieser großartigen künstlerin. noch einmal gelingt die große verzauberung in diesem hamburger november des jahres 1978. esther phillips wird wenige wochen später erst 43 jahre alt. aber die zeit läuft ab – die 50 hat die sängerin schon nicht mehr erreicht. am 7. august 1984 ist sie gestorben. dieses zeitdokument ist ein „must have“!
jetzt erhältlich als doppel-vinyl (schwarz/180g/direct metal mastering)!

badbadnotgood bedienen sich der einflüsse und inspirationen aus ihrer umfangreichen schallplattensammlung, verknüpfen soul/jazz unterschiedlicher generationen (von esther phillips bis thundercat) mit afrikanischen künstlern (kiki gyan, francis bebey, admas anchi) und exotischem pop aus estland (velly joonas) und frankreich (les prospection), vergessen dabei ihre kanadischen landsleute (river tiber, charlotte day wilson), heutige indiehelden (boards of canada, stereolab) und auch die klassiker (the beach boys) nicht. als besonderes bonbon enthalten ihre late night tales ein exklusives bbng cover des kanadischen singer/songwriters andy shauf sowie eine exklusive spoken-word-erzählung der ultimativen queen of siam, lydia lunch.

bbe is proud to announce the release of ‘influences vol. 2’, a compilation album and dj mix showcasing a selection of dj marky’s favourite music, created with a healthy disdain for genre-puritans and an emphasis on fun. taking in traditional brazilian music, disco, acid jazz, early house and of course a little drum & bass, ‘influences’ is more of an invitation to a barbecue in the são paulo sunshine than a chin-stroking ‘back to mine’ selection.

the third release of the vinyl only label another earth is upon us and its all about techno. esther duijn combines 2 acts together in a split ep series which compliment each others sound. for this release esther selected two notorious european techno producers she adores, opuswerk and lee holman. on the a side opuswerk delivers 2 deep driving techno tracks. rf thruster basically expands from beginning to end. this constant propulsion has a deep impact on any dance floor. he drew inspiration from jeff mills and planetary assault systems for this particular track. emdrive starts with an atmospheric intro and morphs into one epic build up that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. on the flip side lee holman bangs 2 deep and firm techno grooves like there is no tomorrow. while adaptive optics is rough on the edges it does pay attention to small details which make the track very dynamic. absorption lines puts the emphasis on a warmer atmosphere. with this track you can transform anything into a pulsating hot mass, according to esther

there is a new label on the horizon and it s first release is all about warm heavy detroit influenced deep techno. another earth combines 2 acts together in a split ep series which compliment each other s sound. the a-side hosts the renowned u.s. based producer, myles serge (ms - re(form)) who, for these 2 tracks, let his machines run crazy beat patterns in a old school detroit techno vibe. the b-side features dutch based duo duijn and douglas (esther duijn and steady douglas). their stripped warm heavy padded deep techno influenced tracks are perfect for creating some heat on the dance floor and the b2, stray, is driven by berenice van leer s lush intense voice.

fine ambient-ish house ep

messalina records return with a fantastic ep of eclectic dancefloor bubblers from fellow we love space residents jamie fatneck low and lucci capri (aka dj callum). first up is the eagerly awaited vinyl release of fatnecks incredible acid rework of michael jacksons classic billie jean, highly in-demand since receiving heavy rotation from greg wilson (the only dj lucky enough to have a copy) who nicely sums the track up...i love the way fatneck has put a somewhat psychotic twist on billie jean via his acid interpretation - inspired west yorkshire wacko madness! next up lucci capri delivers the quirky balearic chugger dame un beso, with super-sweet latino lyrics and a great reggae-influenced swing. flip over for the beautifully understated because today i saw u which melds a cool deep house groove with esther phillips yearning vocals. rounding off the ep in style is fatnecks superb dancefloor-friendly edit of the aretha franklin version what a fool believes. great stuff - welcome back messalina!

supported by: angel molina, david mothersole, dj tlr, paul woolford, simbad, jörn werner, franck roger, fabrice lig, will o brien, hakim murphy, esther duijn,.. >my electronic soul< is probably one of franco cangellis most personal tracks. slow and almost sensual 909 drums create a sonic canvas on which soulful pads and elegant melodies create a timeless electronic ballad reminiscent of early chicago deep house combined with the melancholy of detroit. as the title suggests, this track pretty much exposes francos true roots and is an ode to those long lost and almost forgotten days. >house for brunch< is another deep house offering with more detroit melodics

detroits most mysterious talent, anonym, joined forces with amsterdam local heroes esther duijn & steady douglas, to form d.a.d., and deliver what may become one of the years essential releases. track 1 is the first born child of a serie of songs by this blazing trio, a straight up house killer you dont want to miss. zuidwest, a deep house number by the dutch duo, is as fresh as addictive. supported by the likes of rozzo, baaz, soulphiction, luna city express or dan drastic, amongst many others

nowar has the privilege to introduce this new producer duo from the netherlands, duijn & douglas, composed of esther duijn and steady douglas. their very first outing on the wax comes with a solid deep house monster, pounding steady beats, hip shaking chords and sexy sweet percussion. cat concrete will have you dancing and sweating in no time. close your eyes and lose yourself in the infectious rhythm of this brilliant track. its house music in its purest form. on the flipside you can find baazs remix which takes the track in a more stompy direction. slow jacking beats, a gripping sub bass with a deep old skool touch. its a deep but slow chicago stomper for both warming up the early birds and easing out the afterhour creatures. this record is solid, deep, raw and comes in a very nice artwork sleeve!
