hailing from the suburbs of paris, von ds soul soaked sound is an expression ofhis multi cultural roots. bon is a breezy cocktail of soothing pads, crunchy garage rhythms and the angelic tones of french soul sensation zhakee. on the flip so many faces takes proceedings a stage deeper exposing his junglist roots with galloping drums, ethereal strings and a contrasting fuzzy bass. bon is supported by joe nice, beezy and bunzero and so many faces is supported by headhunter.

knlb first appeared with the initialize 12inch on vibraphone in july of this year, and it s not taken them long to return with another slab of on-point, upfront house music loaded with flair and imagination. up again is a heavy, chugging and bumping jam that should inspire all manner of screwed up faces of appreciation on the floor, and then fog machine smell simmers things down to a more measured house groove. half life brings a few more dubby elements into the mix, and then the club mix of sin sends the record spinning off in a wonderfully dusty reverie of detuned pianos and late-hitting drums.

coast to coast vividly presents the many faces of belgian producer and dj peter van hoesen. example in case: the title track is a no-holds-barred epic synthesizer composition, recorded at the producer s handwerk audio synthesizer studios. van hoesen s love for widescreen synthesis comes clearly to the fore on this track. it is a beautiful showcase of how techno can be emotive, driving and muscular, all at the same time. entrance to entropic city takes a different path, opting for a much more abstract narrative. shunning away from the dancefloor, it chooses to hint at concepts hidden below its sonic surface. voodoo benny s wishbone takes the listener deep into hypnotic and percussive breakbeat territory. menacing synth sweeps coil around the drums while a polyrhythmic groove shows off its tension, six minutes long. finally, in empire in decline - 2017 dub van hoesen reworks his 2008 classic. shuffling breakbeats form a new base for empire s bouncing synth lead.

it is by now no secret that the sounds of the kick drums echoing off the hills of the tennessee valley have been singlehandedly redefining what we know to be truly proper for the better part of a decade now. however, the faces of those that make up this new world order have remained largely in the shadows. as such we are beyond excited to bring tennessee’s two most elite producers, memphis’s will azada and knoxville’s alex falk, back to cgi.

>bridging the gap between the old & the new, the minimal & the maximal, minmax represents a widening of scope as we explore the area between the sounds of classic minus & plus 8. as others subdivide and categorize we bring things back together, opening things up more freely and allow a closer connection to the music that i love and the sounds & textures that many of my dj sets journey through.< richie hawtin

2012 will be a year for new faces on the boe release schedule and first up is professor inc., a producer from paris who has taken inspiration from the masters of the early dub house and techno sounds, incorporating samples borrowed from the days of floppy-disk sharing to create fresh new soundscapes with a very modern feel. he delivers a 4 track ep of stripped back house with complex peripheral textures and effects, from the evolving strings and moving sub bass of path illumination and vtm beos tribute to the sinister echoes and delayed drums of elements combined and essence dub.
