rare brazil album made available again through mr bongo, incl. voce abuso & kabaluere. nice! a truly fantastic record that sounds the way it looks – psychedelic rock, samba-funk and tripped out mpb. features kabaluere as sampled by marcelo d2 on his hit qual e. arranged by rogerio duprat, featuring legendary guitarist lanny gordin. antonio carlos & jocafi were a very successful and famous brazilian writing duo, born in bahia. they worked with the likes of wilson simonal, rosinha de valença, trio mocotó, milton banana, toquinho and more. originally released on rca brazil in 1971, this was the duos debut lp. two versions of the album cover exist in brazil – this, the psyched-out, burnt out version, and a much less exciting photograph of the chaps, pressed to include the single desacato which became a popular hit in brazil and several european countries.

brand new addition to the ever growing transatlantyk catalogue. after an excursion into the hot, equatorial waters of transafryka, the fleet went back up north to visit europe s busiest port and meet with freux. he comes from the same creative crew from poznan that brought you such talents as selvy and newborn jr. nowadays this young graphic designer spends his days in rotterdam s district of delfshaven, after which this ep is named. a mix of 90 s deep house influences, strong sense of humour and unusual musical sensibility guarantees a sure shot winner. the strong groove of bernie is build on a scatting vocal loop, soon joined by ethereal synths and funky slap bass. borderline cheesy sax line completes the picture, which is like an ocean in the sunny, windy afternoon - soothing but never sleepy. coming up next is ght , inspired equally by 1990 s new york and 2016 s vancouver sounds. ambient soundscapes and chilly melodies are set off to pumping drums and looped basslines. the club mix of step offers a similar sound palette, enriched by mallet percussion. a fantastic soundtrack to any leisure activities. the ambient mix takes the original idea into one of rotterdam s coffeeshops, the one where they show a surf movie in slow-mo on a constant loop. jump and wave.

son dexter is a talented producer who released two fantastic eps on larry heard s alleviated in the early 2000 s. his influences are really extensive and diverse: deep house, funk, pop, hiphop, jazz, broken beat, rock, t-bone walker, black science orchestra, miles davis, lenny kravitz, al di meola, the intruders...and you can feel that in this eternity ep. when the canadian artist sent them this 4 tracks ep, the downbeat guys could not believe what they was hearing here. 4 colourful and delicate pearls full of nuances, strength and optimism which reminds us that its possible still to find purity and unconditional love for music. house? soul? pop? just music. nothing more, nothing less.

fantastic triple 7 inch vinyl box + 16 page fanzine “the melodies melozine” on sam shepard / floating points reissue label - including one of current most sought after 7 inches around - a future collectors item!
melodies international are happy to announce the long-awaited reissue of three of the most desired records from the modern soul scene. privately recorded in the detroit area between 73 and 78, and scarcely distributed since, the rare aged in harmony 7-s have become highly sought after and much revered by soul enthusiasts around the world. the unique vibrations emanating from these very special records have resonated at the heart of the melodies label since it s conception, originally prompting the birth of the internationally acclaimed -you re a melody- party and forever inspiring generations of soul collectors to dig that little bit deeper. all originally written, arranged and produced by arnold moore, the six recordings bring together strings, vocals, guitars, synths, horns and drums for the perfect marriage of textures, each track contributing it s own individual energy to the warming aura which surrounds the whole collection. there s something about these compositions that draws you closer to anyone in your vicinity - trust me. after lovingly remastering these gems in conjunction with their creator, melodies are proud to present the masterpieces together as a set for the very first time, accompanied by the second edition of the label s very own melozine, which features an exclusive interview with arnold himself, amongst much, much more…

keeping up their fine schedule, the spazio disponibile label is back with a fifth excellent ep, this time from modes. modes is an artist who is making his debut here, and he is one of a few guys spazio is creating a platform for in the coming months. modes fits right in with the deeply subliminal, transcendental style of the label and its associated party in rome. opener m52 is a supple and sci-fi mix of smooth rubber kicks and millsian melodies that are trippy and hypnotic. m51 is darker and moodier, with smeared pads and grainy ambience making for a big and shadowy chamber of end-of-days techno that is full of foreboding, and finally m44 is more forceful and brutal, with reverb and electricity static adding texture to the cavernous airwaves. compelling from start to finish, this is a fantastic debut from modes.

moscow records close 2016 with a fantastic 3-track ep from berlin imports roustam and tolga fidan. this being their first outing together, the pair deliver a high quality, intelligent journey through minimal house and techno. the record opens with brodsky beat, a groovy, dance floor-focused track. lively percussion and tight bass communicate perfectly with the hope-filled lead to build tension throughout. the omega variant on the a2 has a much more abstract feel. broken beats and skippy percussion play back and forth with deep, spacey hooks and a peculiar synth, giving the listener a sense of mystery. finally, growing up is just a phase is a calming 14 minute trip that uses the entirety of the b side to tell a story of reassurance and calm. laid-back rhythms, guitar samples, relaxed vocals and a wandering synth line work together to form the perfect warmup track.

following the successful reception of klodio s debut ep, the tokyo-based producer spent the year playing shows in japan with various upcoming artists like fulbert and label co-founder alixkun, and taking part in disruptive events such as pow wow school of music. when klodio decided it was time to start recording his second ep, he took a slightly different direction, going from techno-influenced detroit house to house-influenced detroit techno. -shinagawa sunrise- is a fast-paced retro-futuristic jazz jam which climaxes on a fantastic sax solo by the young and talented ilia skibinsky. daiba goes a step further in this techno journey, flowing from glowing, light, syncopated chords to a dark and aggressive atmosphere, and back again to the relaxing chords. more polished, singular, deep, and yet aggressive than -toktroit-, -rainbow bridge ep- brings another stone in the asia-infused universe that the french producer is bringing to the world of electronic music.

third in the vinyl only dj k series see s three more fantastic edits by the japanese based artist

roman flügel: i think the first 5 tracks of the album are simply fantastic

this is how brasil meets spain in germany. when 2 friends from sao paulo (dwu & gioc) sent this fantastic demo to rainer weichhold for his label gold rcrds and shooting star wade from spain added his trademark style for a boombastic remix. no more words necessary since wade regularly delivers proper dancefloor gems on suara or relief.

the still fresh label foul & sunk is about to release their fifth ep, and still not an year old! this time ist is the debut single from oldschool-house affictionado borrowed identity. though still young, you could easily believe that he was there since the beginning, producing a fusion of detroit- and chicago- style house with his own up-to-date flavour. and he got the fantastic mark e to finish the aside of this 4-track record with a remix

with the highly anticipated release of thorsteinssøns ‘academy of heroes album on the horizon, pets recordings have decided the flip the switch early and precede the longplayer with a fantastic trio of remixes. academy of heroes is described as deliciously cosmic and cheerily schizophrenic and looking to break down and reconstruct some of this glorious frenzy are three exciting producers, each of which have chosen a track from the album to remix.

this is an official reissue of what am i gonna do for fun by the band pitch (1982 - new york city). this release also includes a fantastic remix or rework by tolouse low trax (toresch, salon des amateurs, düsseldorf). a few words from stuart shape, the producer: feels like it was done by another person. i remember getting the serge synthetiser to stay in tune was always a problem. we were fascinated with the new sampling that were just coming out, and kind of got carried away on the vocals. not sure what i was thinking about with the lyrics, guess maybe trying to figure out what i was supposed to be doing when i wasnt working or playing music unfortunately no other finished tracks from that era have survived. they recorded a lot, but finished and saved very little.

d3 elements continues to mine the fertile soil of midwest inspired house, techno and electro with this fantastic new album from michael dykehouse (sometimes found turning out experimental fare on planet mu and ghostly). here the grooves are immediate and engaging across nine tracks, from the bubbly -meltdown morning- to the spooked-out -clock division-, touching on a range of styles all bound together by a commitment to classic drum machine beats and synthesiser tones. this is far from a throwback record though, instead celebrating dykehouse s innate musicality through all manner of tempos and moods and coming out as a well-rounded long player in the process.

another fantastic project from a mysterious producer. vinyl only, 300 copies, limited edition!

vinyl only release
with their releases together on pleasure zone with the sishes ep and on subtill with the pandering ep they were very successful. after all this fantastic tracks and drop outs we got them together for our mupasario release on epilog! the next 2 - brothers in arms - marc mario- philipp has already released his huge number rezo/epilog002 in 2014 and now he brings his old colleague and good friend nils luigi weimann with him..... and we re very lucky to have this great tunes sounding like nintendo games in the late 80s and with the nice techno surfaces.... this brings back memories of a great times and has substantially gotten us

inga mauer loves trains. -it s a fantastic chance to be nowhere-, she says. from cologne to clone is, in many ways, a celebration of this nomadic sense of existence. -i don t need a home, only a studio-, she confirms. recorded in a period when inga lived between cologne and rotterdam, home to the famed clone records shop (hence the title), the music on this ep is inspired both by the emptiness you suffer in futile non-places such as airports and the chasm you experiment in majestic scenarios as a russian forest. both by solitary travels and first encounters with machines you always wanted to touch like an 808. six tracks constructed with razor-sharp drum-machines, penetrating synth sequences and estranged vocals. raw sounds that capture the type of clairvoyance that one can only feel when in transit, far from the chains of our comfort zones. from cologne to clone is much more than a train journey. it s an introspective voyage to a beautifully warped soul. a reminder that, in fact, sometimes you only need your self-expression to feel at home.

plastik people has hit 10 releases & were super excited about that! to celebrate this fantastic achievement we bring you 3 cuts of pure underground quality from some legends of house music, a side is amazing deep soulful track by mike perras who s been in this game for over 25+ years, he brings us dream4you smooth keys, raw baseline and a hook that will suck you in and spit you out. b side we bring back the a man who s gained huge recognition back in the 90s after releases on f-comminucation, aquabassino is back, and this time he s working along side jazz musician neil warden to bring plastik people a slice of pure house jazz grooves, finally to round up the ep comes label regular playin 4 the city & his amazing late night deep house track orbit, must have for your vinyl collection

marathons began innocently, as a quick debut ep by an energetic swedish duo we found on soundcloud. within a couple months of chatting with the pair, artur bra&#776,,ndstrom and egil kahlbom, however, we realized our collaboration wasn t going to be simple, so cut and dry, so straightforward, and that s why we find ourselves here, a year after meeting them with a full album, not an in-and-out single, on our hands. what made it complex and intricate, you ask? why d we opt to squeeze eight originals into one long-player, you wonder? well, artur and egil are prolific dudes with fantastic ears and formidable work ethics. a couple of demos quickly sprouted offspring and became four, then six, then ten. rather than fight the arbitrary desire to trim the spread down to a 12inch, we figured we d aim higher and work on a proper album. what we constructed is, in a very classic sense, a long-player. here s that album! it s a sunny, loose, limber, uninhibited boogie through warm disco cuts and wobbly house jams and soulful funk slices. daytime chill-out with a nightclub architecture—or peak hour mayhem with a bright, clearheaded euphoria. marathons swings every which way and suits any mood, so drop that needle and try it on. then repeat, repeat, repeat.

ben sun returns to delusions for his 4th release on the label including three more tracks which show the australian via london on his best form yet. full moon kicks off the tides ep at full throttle with a muscular conga-led disco house roller. slurping 909 hats and the most twisted of synth solos courtesy of regular collaborator fantastic man (and his beloved juno 60) provide the icing on this simple bass-cake which never fails to energize the dancefloor in the most special of ways. star ritual drops next, going heavy on the percussion once again for a minimal stripped back drum tool which packs a mighty punch. dubbed out vocal hits punctuate the beautifully loose groove with subtle hints of afrobeat implied by the bassline making for a warm summer track dripping with tropical vibes. finally we have glass waves bringing the ep to a glorious close, all chiming synths, bouncing moog bass and waves of chords layering on top of a heavy drum track. ben repping an early 90’s blissed out nu groove mood on this one and managing to sound as fresh as ever in the process

music is art presents topper. the fifth release is a superb demonstration of deep minimal techno. two fantastic tracks by topper on the front side and a great remix by nima gorji on the back side!

the fifth release on renate schallplatten comes from dimitri veimar from moscow, a good friend and regular guest behind the decks at renate. hot on the the heels of his fantastic time ep on omnidisc, he delivers four tracks of modern acid flavoured goodness. the icing on the cake is a superb remix by renate all time favourite lauer from the robert johnson crew.

sometimes great records need time to grow… it took a while to finally present john talabot s fantastic versions of the already stone cold classic from sfire.

the third release by the finnish producer leftover on the label. as always the tracks are full of deepness with a well balanced mix of echos, reverbs. this is again a fantastic release from him, which will become a future classic!

nice price deal !!! the title of this ep sorta says it all. its quite an important release for the label. glasgow musical connections all around! when most people think of optimo music, they think of the long-running club night in glasgow >optimo (espacio)<, which ran for 12 years every sunday…headed by jd twitch and jg wilkes. label honcho jd twitch is extremely proud to be releasing naum gabo … as this is the studio project of his optimo partner, jonnie wilkes, along with james savage. jonnie and james (formally releasing three 12 inches simply as >naum< on kompakts mighty speicher series) have been active on the scene for a while now. as well as releasing the original music on kompakt, mule, eskimo, dissident, and tinae they have provided some wonderful naum gabo reworks for hot chip, simian mobile disco, franz ferdinand, snow patrol, psychonauts and so many more… twitch has long been a fan of naum gabo so it is a bit of a coup to be getting this fantastic release: two covers of two mighty scottish acts from the late 70s/early 80s.

justice, whos name the world (well at least that part of the world that loves to dance) chants with emotion and whose first album is awaited with bated breath ever since the french duo revolutionised dancefloors with two radically different hits. it comes as no surprise that «†», the first album by justice, is a fantastic treat for the ears and for the feet. a kind of musical opera marked with religious and baroque symbols, where the melodies are ripped to shreds by the beats, where electro teaches rock a lesson and where pop gets a botox injection.

reissue of the 3rd album by william onyeabor, originally released in 1979.

nice price deal !!! for this new absolut freak release, the great revelation racontage meets the californian hip-hop band the 87 stick up kids for a fantastic crossover. the french duo brings its awesome technical skills with a massive break/electro sound on the west coast flow of the kids.
supported by lady b, disco trash music, da traxer, tom deluxx, boxon records …

nice price deal !!! from the beginning, oktored has tried to keep himself away from the pigeonholing nature of the electronic dance scene. seamlessly blending early rave sounds with futuristic beats and melodies, he has really been coming into his own lately. from a young age, he has been into a multitude of different genres of music ranging from ambient to death metal. the next two releases will show just that. the first of which will be the more passive side of oktored.gemini 1 (or the good side) really brings together a feeling of old detroit style techno/house with some new moombahton flavour. the fact that he has been motivated by so many different styles and sounds becomes very apparent on tracks like relax and inéz, while he brings some real deep, future bass styling on the drifter. for fans of future sounds of 8 mile, this release will be a fantastic follow up ep. but that is only one side of our gemini friend. the follow up release, gemini 2 will showcase his darker, more aggressive side. delving into rough, uninhibited bass and beat tracks, oktored will begin to show just how deep his production can go

nice price deal !!! javi and fabian, based in uruguay and well know from her releases on whirlpoolsex, resopal, doppelgaenger and many more, teamed up for their first release on workbench!including a fantastic groovin aldo cadiz remix!

nice price deal !!! fantastic debut release on a new label from christian peak, a definite rising star in the club techno world. teaming up with pretty polly for two storming tracks on the a & two of his own equally good on the flip, this is serious dancefloor ammo not to be missed!

nice price deal !!! congratulations to what! what! records for five years of releasing finest funky & party banging techhouse nuggets
