following critically acclaimed releases from eduardo de la calle, refracted, and monomood, connwax returns with another exceptional offering of bold and original techno. for this release, they have enlisted the help of a rising young talent in berlins underground scene: akme. the producer and resident dj of renowned club, about blank demonstrates his uncommon technical precision and emotional depth with this debut ep, drawing on his vast array of influences and experiences across all genres. in elements, the bass drum takes centre stage. the engine room relentlessly driving everything forward. yet as the track develops, a fine lattice work of detail starts to unfold. meticulous percussive elements imbue the piece with an enigmatic depth as a sombre melody sweeps through the rough rhythmic landscape. we are allowed a brief moment to reflect before the bass drum continues its inexorable path forward. akme takes a more reduced approach in black matter space is left for the interplay between the understated acid bassline and delicate hi-hats to lock the track into a hypnotic groove. here, the statement is defined by what is left unsaid. for the final track concealing, ak

spice 1 is an undisputed west coast legend, who first hit the scene after the n.w.a. and closer to home too $hort explosion of the late 80s. as history showed, he continued that bloodline with finesse and authority. his nasal flow is menacing and strong, and fans have been consistently captivated by his hood tales since his self-titled debut in 1992. if you want thematic range with your mcs, spice isn’t that dude he is all about crime tales and the perils of ghetto life. and he attacks that storytelling sweet spot with each new cut. spice 1 boasted four singles by the time it was all said and done, and breezed to gold status on the strength of cuts like the catchy east bay gangster, the heartfelt tales and truths of welcome to the ghetto, and the thick, grooving in my neighborhood. he even produced the alcohol-themed 187 proof, another of the albums singles, and the hands-down cleverest vocal outing on the lp. sonically, the backdrops on spice 1 range from plunky, keyboard-bassline funk to deeper, fuzzy 70s samples and he sounds strong on top of both. break yourself is fueled with an electro-funk drive, 1-800 spice brings reggae flavor, and peace to my nine gets chunkier, with a well-placed p-funk one nation under a groove sample. presented here on official retail vinyl for the first time since its initial release 26 years ago, spice 1s debut holds the test of time and carries the california gangsta flag with pride. some colors just don’t fade.

sebastian eduardo burst onto the scene in 2016 with a fine debut ep entitled ultima necat, now comes his second ep, this time released in the untold stories protagonist series. dedicated to the legendary poet hanshan, the ep is a deep and personal offering, it keeps to the style which made his debut so appreciated: positively charged, quirky and enlivening micro house, but this time there s a deeper personal dimension to the tracks, a nice development and another welcome offering from the young swiss producer.

no matter where the winds may blow, what storms may come or what pirates will do, the transatlantyk ship is still sailing. navigated for the last three years by zambon out of berlin, ultimately avoiding the shallow waters of the generic and constantly patrolling the seas in search of exciting sounds. after all that sailing the label just had to replenish its ranks with some fresh faces - those still capable of voyaging into the unknown. joining the crew is a young gun tamten, who by day serves as a vinyl pusher in warsaw s finest side one record store. what he does by night is not the matter of this short text, but we are sure he does a lot of it. hence his love for all things distant - from subaquatic pads and floating riffs, to new-age-y siren voices, otherworldly effects and percussion drenched in reverb. there is a lot of similarly distant, sun-bleached material on this five tracker, full of a druggy and hippy balearic feel. beautiful ambient jam przebudzenie is the stand out track, but znaki czasu is equally as good with its simple, yet memorable melody, reminding of dawns and sunsets on some god forsaken beach. sultry deepness of nieznajoma is followed by enchanting digital exotica of wyrocznia and wavey trip-hop cut po burzy . overall its one of the strongest eps that transatlantyk managed to co-opt into its growing catalogue. definitely one for the dreamers.

different shapes & sizes is a new, 3 part series of eps from berlin resident spencer parker forthcoming on his work them records imprint over the next few months. conceived as a neat way of showcasing parkers love for different shades of house and techno, different shapes & sizes takes a walk through the rekids artists love for the subtle differences in the genres he tends to focus on most in his sets. london-born parker has been in fine fettle this past few years with his its not over project riding high while work them records has been lauded for tracks and remixes from the likes of radio slave, rodhad, pittsburgh track authority, young male and dan beaumont. different shapes & sizes: part 1 a double a-side exercise in muscular, simplistic house workouts, drops on vinyl and digitally in february with parts 2 and 3 following in march and april respectively.

sting’s first rock / pop album in over a decade as black 180 gram vinyl edition in gatefold sleeve.

faraway reach casts classixx’s young-but-nostalgic melodies and sublime chords in a more mature, restrained light, albeit no less lively and bright. establishing themselves as producers of note on their debut lp (pitchfork called them “great songwriters, too”), faraway reach delivers powerfully smooth and soulful jewels that are still decidedly their own - the classixx signature is one that can’t be traced. their love of plaintive voices and disco-inspired grooves is as evident as ever, but this time around everything is a bit bolder, the cast is bigger, the melodies distilled into a higher potency - it’s all just as good, but better. “on the first record, we wanted to include only people that were our friends, and have it be really personal…” david begins, a thought blake finishes: “this time we wanted to make a record with a lot of different kinds of vocals, to see if we could be the common thread.” the album traverses locales, vocalists and inspirations. it s a fitting movement for the duo, from venice beach to the mountains of south africa and everywhere in between - a faraway reach.
the double vinyl release includes a download code.

all nite ep is the young mancunian waltons second set on hyperdub, after his very well received walton ep debut for the label in 2011. title cut >all nite< kicks it off with warm plucked strings, diva moans and lazer-like synths stretched to the point of anticipation over cracking grime handclaps and bass drums, until the track drops into a blocky bass line playing hide and seek with low arpeggios that spiral in and out of the mix, over a giant pounding metallic kick drum before layering on the warmth again. the whole track plays with a fine balance between warm, disco-like lushness and exuberant roughness. >mallet< is driving and darker, building detuned, bell-like tones over a 4/4 beat accented by breaks and fills and gaps, dropping into a big bass line and syncopations that disrupt the beat and bring the drama. >kush< is different again, taking the pace down with low end, synth hip hop with glassy chords, running over woozy pitch shifting rhodes chords fed through a layer of crackly gauze.

flora cash sind ein us/skandinavisches duo, das sich zur aufgabe gemacht hat, die diversität menschlicher beziehungen musikalisch darzustellen. dabei dringen sie an orten, an denen tränen vergossen, das mobiliar ramponiert und trennungen diskutiert werden. nachdem sie sich online kennengelernt haben und dort auch direkt auf den gemeinsamen nenner „musik“ gekommen sind, erhielt ihr atmospherisch tiefgehender vibe direkt großen zuspruch von z.b. the line of best fit, indie shuffle, noisey us, paste, the music ninja, earmilk, interview magazine, nylon und vielen weiteren.
mit dem release ihres albums „nothing lasts forever (and it’s fine)“ konfrontieren sich flora cash mit ihrem bisher herausfordendsten moment als musiker. sie teilen eine schwere, rohe art der angst mit dem hörer, die erst körper und geist berührt und es im laufe der zeit schafft, sich in fast jeden lebensbereich einzuschleichen.
das duo schafft es, ihre tiefgreifende liebe für akustische klanglandschaften mit einer priese ätherischer produktion zu würzen, die an mt wolf, poliça, vogue dots und kings of convenience erinnert. durch den schmerzvollen dialog zwischen shpresas beobachtungen und coles leiden erschafft das duo ein interessantes, inter-dimensionales und trotzdem mächtiges stück musik.

for it’s 16th (!!!) release, dixon avenue basement jams continues to bolster it’s local infantry with fresh, new blood, this time with the addition of a young but well-seasoned individual hailing from the hinterland of greater glasgow and going by the name of big miz. if you happen to live within an 8 mile radius of a blue lagoon, the chances are you will have already been acquainted with the bold miz, most likely through the longstanding and legendary clubnight/crew he’s a resident & founding member of: offbeat. the length & breadth of offbeat’s tastes also reflects his flexibility as a producer. tracks presented here, such as “good thing” strike a fine balance between good ol’ motor city funk and chi-town oddities such as vincent floyd’s more obscure cuts on d.m, while the velocity increasing “solange” comes like the result of a three-day theo studio session fuelled by bad speed. his talent for catering to the dance has clearly paid dividends when it comes to his productions, with the nuance and instinctive touch he presents us with on his debut dabj 12” clearly marking him from the start line as an already formidable & stand-out force in the heady and increasingly cramped world of house & techno.

odd002,kdim ep comes from a pair of german-based young guns glenn astro and imyrmind. the two artists met in 2007, both sharing a burgeoning interest and eclectic taste in music from a young age. they frequently began swapping beats, ultimately culminating in a very raw and yet mature sound, which immediately grabbed our attention. the a side is a sweet and sultry jaunt, complemented with hip-tugging beats. whilst their remixes on the flip side show off a unique and finely tuned ear for the dance floor.
