people have all the power - they just have to remember it, findet steve mason und sorgt mit seinem neuen eklektischen meisterstück *monkey minds in the devils time* für revolutionären wind in der flaute der aktuell doch sehr unpolitischen popwelt. das neue album besticht nicht nur durch seinen inhaltlichen tiefgang. dass der ex-beta band sänger mason auf stolze fünfzehn jahre erfahrung als musiker zurückgreift und produzent dan carey (hot chip, bat for lashes) seine finger im spiel hatte, merkt man dem album an. das glanzstück *monkey minds in the devils times* ist an musikalischem facettenreichtum zwischen pop, indie und elektronik kaum zu überbieten.

we are the ones with the courage to stand up and express our ideas. so many heroes have sold out, moved on, and turned their back on the detroit underground. if the true believers are waiting on the calvary then i guess cryovac will have to do. this is our fight whether we like it or not. we are a few like minds, not the alphas, never the favorites. we are the other guys, the ones nobody bets on, the least likely to survive a business. we know what the score will bring us, but there is an appointment and we mean to keep it. heroes must define themselves and then redefine themselves. each day that moves forward brings opportunities to tweak creations into what the now means. kieth kemp endures the elements and ailments of an ever changing electronic world. he is an original hero with a smooth technique that reflects an instinctual nderstanding of sound and soul. kieth represents a talent and spirit that does not falter no matter how strange a circumstance can get. he follows his own path to relavence. i am proud to welcome kieth to the cryovac machine.

these redux releases are like buses, we dont hear anything for ages then they hit us with three killer eps in a row. following the grand corporation and machete savane comes the return of phoreski. we have not heard much from phoreski for a little while, but you will soon hear why when you put the needle to the record on these two new tracks. he has been busily building up his studio into an enviable aladdins den of vintage kit, wires and analogue recording equipment. all synths and vocals you hear on these tracks come from phoreski, no samples, no guests, no edits. he has been hinting at this raw, analogue authentic sound for a while, but these tracks showcase a producer at one with the machines. >brown biscuits< comes across like some lost italo/cosmic gem, but via the north east of england rather than the lakes of italy. >machines< flexes tight proto-house rhythms with some bass that will make mince meat of lesser club soundsystems whilst the feuding synth lines fight for attention. this is proper body music, play loud!

2019 reissue - wie showbiz und ag moegen twit one und lazy jones ihre pockets fat not flat (taschen voll nicht leer). aber wie das schicksal halt so spielt, ist das nicht immer der fall bei den beiden musikern aus koeln. deshalb nennen sie ihr projekt flatpocket und haben ein gemeinsames album zu diesem thema aufgenommen. fuer fans der hi-hat club- & beat fight-serien!

van bonn returns after his release maserung on telrae in april 2011. van bonn has been in the studio a lot since then and has worked on a number of tracks that are highlighted here. onwards i is an excursion into sound. it starts with sounds that interact in a subtle way but then as if by magic, suddenly it rises to a much higher energy level, almost pulling you by the hair. chords now kick in with the full force of brutality, like the strikes of london’s big ben and then you’d think the track will just burst. van bonn makes another turn before he lets the drums break loose. it seems as if van bonn is taming the brutality and direction of his electronic machines. abstract now meets the concrete and whoever wins the fight is up to the listener to decide. the first remix comes by raffaele attanasio who has had considerable success with der pianist and i m a jazzman and has collaborated with trapez ltd artist mihalis safras, a. trebor (trapez), as well as claude young, nic fanciulli and has shown his versatility throughout the last 3 years. juan atkins recently featured raffaele attanasio remix of no mans land by a. trebor in his charts.his remix for van bonn keeps up a strong beat programming right from the beginning. a beat monster so to speak is alive from the beginning and kicking. the track is written in a style that shows expansion and contraction and through that shows an organic breathing quality.

uffe delivers a 5 track ep including two remixes that set the standard for a promising career. his debut ep on pets recordings 2012 created quite a bit of hype and the track when the sun rose appeared in various high profile dj charts...

the first release of fottute registrazioni (marcello napoletanos label) is based on freedom, especially after release of a member of i.f.m. fran mela. after being locked up for some law bullshit, fran came out with an anger and strength, so as to be transmitted to another i.f.m. member, marcello napoletano, this blend of anger and strength derived from it this ep mini-album. in this record you can feel the anger and the power , the resistance, the freeform lifestyle and analog machines...desire for freedom, desire to fight and resist, desire for free expression, desire to rush the anger and the energy stored.

for the boxer jubilee, we have organised a top-class heavyweight fight: martin eyerer, head of kling klong, and florian meindl, chief of flash recordings, have entered into the boxing ring for a two-round title fight: in the first round, >the rush< — supported by tactical advice given by the trainer — is a fast and merciless series of left jabs followed by sappy, powerful uppercuts and hooks that leave the opponent completely unprotected. gong after a short break, the referees gives the command box, and the showdown starts again: >slow groover< is as light-footed as muhammad ali at his best: always on its toes, full of grace, and with surprising and powerful left-right punch combinations that often end up in a clinch. and with resounding applause, a technically ambitious two-round fight is over, and there are no losers, only winners. so, raise your fist, get your boxing belt on, and meet you on the dance floor…

joashs debütalbum >dont fear it, fight it< hat sich längst zu einem geheimtipp entwickelt. es hatte sich in die herzen vieler produzenten gespielt, einige von ihnen hat es zu remixen inspiriert. drei davon finden sich auf dieser maxi: arto mwambe (aka lauer/brontosaurus), tj kong & nuno dos santos (compost) und till von sein (suol/morris audio/baalsaal).

> music is being passed, inhaled, and expelled into nothingness. in order to fight the nonexistence of music we need to get those round plastic archives back into our hand< as you understood those archives are vinyls…the only way to keep the music alive in our head and soul through our hands, as ricardo said…and you know how much we care about that! miranda first ep on bosconi will be probably one of his last on any other label before he starts his brand new imprint. after releasing on some of the most respected techno/house label of the globe, as neroli, rush hour and reincarnation, rm doesn&#700,,t need further introductions…so we&#700,,ll quickly tell you that here you get a three tracker of pure raw analogue pleasure and proper dancefloor goodness including the bouncy acid house groover >state of mind<, the dry, nasty and minimilastic chicago rooted drum tool track called > drum with the funk<, and in the end the peaceful, dreamy and atmospheric trip of > no sound<….all the necessary ingredients for you to not leave this record out of your bag! vinyl will save our soul

soniculture, the lisbon-based label, proudly presents billy dalessandros 5th album entitled cracktime. this project forges a new generation of production style and sound design for billy as he cocks the shotgun of his latest experiment in electronic debauchery. cracktime sonically defines those innocent and naughty moments that each of us exhibit, in our own way, that helps to fulfill our lives with all those insane memories we carry with us back to the grave. thirteen tracks round out this ring match in a dub-infused, 303- injected, chicago-style bassd-out fight that lasts just about an hour. so sit back (or jack back) to the show, and remember...that if religion is the opium of the masses, music definitely gives us our daily crack.

this time they bring to the table 2 of the most rolling smashing tunes from the benefit camp. whats good about social music is that it has space and head room for you to mix the tune nicely in whatever way shape or form you choose. if you want to bashment switch it you can, or you want to use it for dd (double dropping) its there for you to do so or even roll out the mix. and the m.cs dont need to fight against the frequencies they can just do their thing without struggling.

while yacht refers to >dystopia (the earth is on fire)< as a post-apocalyptic fight song and a cautionary tale, the tracks chant-along melodies and unsparing synths nudge listeners far closer to dance than despair. from the sound of things, that reaction will likely also be elicited by two new remixes of the portland duos song, from their 2011 long player shangri-la. legendary production duo justin strauss and bryan mette, aka whatever/whatever, completely rework the sound of >dystopia< on their version, reorienting it with heavy doses of funk. while the original rides atop buzzing synths, the whatever/whatever remix adds a thick bassline and shimmery keyboards that leap out like solar flares. on the flipside, uk-based emperor machine starts their dystopia remix with a dubby feel – every vocal echoing endlessly – and then u-turns into wholly a updated, yet classic, disco sound. the rhythms are sultry, slinking behind a deep, repeated, synthline, its a recipe for an unexpectedly smooth, subtly hypnotic, and utterly danceworthy song.

i fight myself to sleep, my eyelids, heartbeats are lead weights of despair and sor-rows. the years disappeared within loneliness. to manage staying alive i keep my visions to myself. you were once my friend, a sinister. the sinister composition was written by par grindvik during 2009 and 2010. writing sinister was part of a healing process. the original sinister was never meant to be released - and it will probably never be. however, in 2010 par came up with the idea of handing out parts from the original, to a few of his friends, and to release different interpretations derived from these parts. the new interpretations would mark the beginning of a new label project cal¬led sinister. next to par’s own rework of the original, you will find the following interpretations. samuel l session (klap klap, music man, soma, be as one), s100 (stockholm ltd), gary beck (minus, soma, saved), staffan linzatti (stockholm ltd, searchlights), jesper dahlbäck (isl, drumcode, h-prod)

true to form, souvenir are back with a snappy summertime release perfectly hinged & ready for sweeping the dancefloors. souvenir 036 various artists features lewis boardman & maher daniel blending their sounds, and converging on this ep for some magnificent effects. the a side starts out with daniel - he is a new, but solid name amongst the techno-gambit, having released on labels such as get physical & bedrock, as well as on souvenir. while his remix workings of >rumblefish< earned him a 2 1/2 month long-spot as number one on the techno charts. with >here and now< with dark, driving techno that sounds like its been made inside of a blazing house-fire. burning & singed, the the layers fall heavy upon one another - with a penetrating dancefloor deep-ness to the bass. next up, >icaros< on the inside a track…spins a dark & deep nighttime soundscape, deep into the depths of a jungle somewhere. a distant & hollow vocal of a tribesman hums hauntingly in the distance, with a severe & driving bassline to make you run like a scared little raver deep into the jungle. on the b side, boardman takes over, one of the uks newest talents - recently remixing for nina kraviz & yousef - with >tranquilizer,< on b2 is quite a minimal retreat…with some intergalactic space-fight sounds thrown into the mix, alongside the rolling bass, and chug-chugging. b2 enters the title track, >the broken is beautiful.< a nice, chugging bass-line meets a ethereal chopped up vocal, carefully flowing in & out of the bass-line….to meet up strong midway thru the breakdown

korablove is ready for his debut on apl. >splash forward< is not only a track but a new concept. at the beginning everything sounds like a classical deep, simple and muffled step, some chords. then something happens, something special. we all know how the structures are rigid, 4/4 that hardly can match with a breaking, the influences of a genre rather than a way of expressing, dressing, living. splash forward is a new way of seeing things, like if the wall of differences falls down suddently, like if years of clubbing and fight for a new space disappear into thin air. a deep track that transforms into a thriller.
