with this first ep, s.o.n.s pays homage to the early age of electronic dance music, when techno, house and trance were friendly to each other, when tracks were full of deepness and harmonics, when drums were crazy and raw, when techno was soulful. yeah, this is all about this ep, some soulful deep techno excursions. while the a1 is an after-hours emotional weapon freely inspired by an obscure m. goddard production some will recognize, the a2 is a more straight forward electro track with dark vocals and rising chords, as they made it in detroit back in the days. on the other side of the record is a techno journey through a rainforest with pan flute, deep chords and old school bassline. plus there is a little bonus locked groove: a mere 4/4 tr909 bass drum s.o.n.s personally uses in their crazy obscure techno mixes. turquoise vinyl + foil sticker on cover, limited to 200 copies. mastered by matt colton (l.i.e.s, apron…)

limited repress 2015 !!
the debut release on office recordings is the first part of a series produced by label founder baaz. in my mind is a subtle, shiny piece of jazzyfied house music with a steady rolling groove and dirty kickdrum. glim bangs the box with deep dubs and a sexy vigorous groove. the flip starts with two mind bending downbeat cuts with a stumbling beat. last but not least a slowburning remix of way out citti by matthias reiling (sessionn victim, giegling recordings) and björn astrup who did a brilliant job twisting the original into a soulful homage to the slow side of house music.

roadside edits are back, their first 12inch was a very limited pressing, and it sold out faster than moonshine back in the prohibition days, so they have repressed it, and for good measure they have added their foot stomping edit moonshine on the a side, its a liquid disco funk hoe down thigh slapping drunken stomp, funky and slide guitars, the odd brass stab here and there, throw in a bit of organ with some chunky pianos, add some guy laughing and we are good to go. b1 gets going with a funky disco cosmic groover with some wicked wah wah guitar, strings, effects, cool synths and tight drums, all bound to get them moving on the dance floor. b2 groove is so infectious with some sweet harmonica solos, tight bass and soaring strings that lifts this track and the crowd to cloud

ltd warehouse found... the joubert singers – stand on the word remixes available 12inch, including larry levan mix and exclusive reworks by patchworks, panoptikum arkestra & walter mecca. originally recorded live in the first baptist church in crown heights, nyc, in 1982 under celestial choir and pressed only for the congregation, it was then enlighted by walter gibbons (owner of jus born studios and a new born christian at the time of the recording), who acquired a copy and played it out at the 7th av. rock and soul shop, where he worked. >stand on the word< was walters biggest record at the time, says colin gate, who visited the church in order to track down the origins of the song.

2015 re-issue! producers trias and baeks are old school techno berliner djs who held residency at tresor club for well over 10 years. adam x and ancient methods befriended each other in berlin in 2008. the main commonality in forging a solid friendship between them was their passion not just for techno but for the rhythmic noise side of the industrial music scene. it would only make sense with mutual respect of each others music to record a release together. here on their first collaboration they blend together their distinctive styles to create a fresh new sound of techno, industrial and arrhythmic and dysrhythmic noise machine funk

culminating the cycle of drone logic, daniel avery releases new energy, a collection of remixes including six new reworks. token records’ ace in the pack Ø phase reshapes naive response into a beautifully psychedelic techno trip whilst conforce turns the previously reflective simulrec into a militaristic stomp aimed squarely at the floor. further out still, ruthless noise experimentalist powell takes a typically esoteric approach to water jump, leaving it just as catchy in disarray as when it was first conceived.

the shadeleaf music label has finally got your attention it seems ! breakthrough 12 s across their first 5 releases have firmly established thatmanmonkz s label of love as a heavyweight deep house contender ! ever keen to open up the crease to new batsmen, the guys have assembled a deadly duo of big hitters for their their sixth innings. belarus, not perhaps the first place you d think of when it comes to solid house music, but four walls have certainly dropped more than their fair share of jams across labels of note like kolour ltd & traxx underground. here s he s teamed up with fellow grodno resident funkyjaws for a style that s firmly fixated with the roots us house blueprint, but with a fresh take, that s all their own. saine ought to need no introduction, but for those at the back, across a mere handful of releases (his sleazybeats ep was one of our fastest selling...ever !) this young talent has made quite a mark - his drifter ep on must have is one of our favourite house 12 s of recent times. what better way to demonstrate the shadeleaf spirit of collaboration then getting these two established up-and-comers to reinterpret each other s work ? live organic percussion, and the warming hiss and glow of machine circuits conspire to deliver perfectly balanced hip-shaking equations and low end theories. and that s just the f side !. flip for the s side (get it ?) and we re into theoesque territory, with a rasping riff snaking through some deft rhodes work and to-the-bone rhythms, while four walls & funkyjaws offer up a swinging and irresistible rub to wrap it all up top shelf tackle ladies and gents

federsen returns to fifth interval for another sublime instalment of dance floor friendly dub-techno. dewpoint is an altogether tighter affair when compared to the label s first release, point reyes. the drums are taut and razor-sharp, propelling the listener effortlessly through a dense fog of ferric clouds, swelling to fill the outer-reaches of the echo chamber. a highly polished metallic production style that can be compared to some of andy stott s early and classic works. tomas rubek remixes dewpoint for the b-side, remaining faithful to the original track s structure but viewing it through a tinted lens. dewpoint s chords become iridescent, kick drums fall into a straighter pattern and are backed by further dusty percussion, shifting the original into spheres inhabited by the likes of rod modell and fluxion.
