dusty baron aka latecomer may be a recent arrival on the scene, but he plays like a true veteran. a mysterious export from the around same eastern latitudes as label boss vakula, his music, much like vs, sounds just as rooted in the post soviet russian landscape as it is in the post industrial north america which gave rise to all the soul and machine funk that is the driving inspiration for so many of todays roots conscious electronic artists. vakula takes the controls on side a with dubwise and exotic production skills whilst side b showcases the barons heavy heavy chops, with drum programming as deft as his keys work, and a sound which is equal parts earthly and heavenly. sides c & d (on bonus 7inch) see v step up to offer two takes on >follow shot<, continuing the theme of techno tinged jazz cosmism. a noble introduction, by way of collaboration, to the dusty baron and his sound, and yet another installment in lelekas continuing contribution to the musical space time continuum.

when it comes to and strikes you, it works. this is the only thing that rules only300 familys sound, an edm label born in milan in the end of 2011. tech house with no strings attached is the reference point to start from and experiment with, together with the diverse influences of a genre in progress. our musical research - coming from only300 (milan) staff vision - goes beyond ideological bounds between means of production: no matter if its digital or analogue, the point is the emotion behind the sound, even if it comes to your legs, heart or brain. o300f sees flying high records - not just dance floor/club/listening oriented - and it thinks that labels are just gilded cages.

medical records is ecstatic to present the reissue of the essential >novels for the moons< by axxess. originally released in 1983, axxess is the brainchild of french multimedia artist patrick mimran. mr. mimran was co-director of lamborghini motors (along with his brother) at the time and fittingly released the album on the imprint lamborghini records. heavily influenced by german electronic pioneers klaus schulze, tangerine dream, and kraftwerk, mr. mimran commissioned the german engineer andreas bahrdt to build a custom complex synthesizer which eventually materialized into a 16 voice analog synthesizer of genius proportions.

bob dylans >love & theft< was a true return to form, his 30th studio album, with the unfortunate release date of september 11, 2001.
his voice is shot, but he sounds warmer, more relaxed, and old mr. grumpy is as good humoured as on >the basement tapes< (movlp 429). bob is in a wistful, elegiac, playful mood. he has recovered the humanity he lost on >time out of mind<, and is looking on life with loving eyes. he has thrown off the weight of life and is remembering a better self. and that makes this one of his more accessible albums, despite a lack of high-flying hit songs.

introducing kleine reise records, a berlin based label flowering from the roots of their beloved clubs kleine reise & loftus hall, a natural progression to further share our world of sound. life is change, tastes evolve, the only essential ingredient is for our music to have soul. free from the shackles of any particular style or genre and from the constraints of time, we begin a journey through the sonic universe. our first offering comes from two of kleine reises founding members dara drea oneill and peter power. on the a-side we have sun-k, composed during several sundowns at the hazy heights of last summer. channeling the collective spirit of the open-air arena, it offers the first glimpse into peters ufordian fantasy. on the b-side, dara takes a bare-back ride through a pitched dreamscape. the constant flapping wings of a little dragon guides him. if you stretch out your arms it feels like flying. lastly with >red roses< peter conjures up an irresistible dream-like, slo-mo workout, guaranteed to be drifting out across the adriatic beach parties this summer take a little trip with us. love the kr family

as hot as ever the new ep from our siberian disco friends is finally landing into theomatic’s catalogue. the title track solar wind is a rhodes driven hands-in-the-air early night anthem: simple yet powerful, just the way we like it! the flipside features an offbeat cosmic number “planetarium” which sounds like a perfect soundtrack for some colourful sci-fi cartoon about the early years of space exploration, with all those rockets, flying saucers, stars and comets with long tails. the bonus track (available as a digital download only) is named after the soviet moon exploration robot vehicle lunokhod 2 (’moon walker’ in russian) which was sent to the moon in 1973. being rather minimalistic at the begining it slowly evolves and reaches its apogee closer to the end with calm and beautiful melody which leaves the listener in a peaceful mood

coming off the back of a lengthy tour in the u.s, we are happy to announce that trolley snatcha is making his long-awaited return to the label for the first time since the >one trick pony< ep. opening up his account for 2012 with a lethal double pack, we promise that it is worth the wait.

bristols elastic dreams present its third release, with label owner a sagittariun taking a back seat on this one and introducing sheffield based dj/producer, nyra, to the fold. hot off the heels of his ep for never learnt, nyra keeps on track with two new cuts of basement techno and deep, murky dancefloor tracks. the release is bolstered by a remix from skudge on lead track >uno 10<. skudge really need no introduction, but to the uninitiated, the swedish duo have been plying their simple, raw yet powerful sound since 2009 with releases and remixes for echocord, drumcode, fear of flying, rush hour and of course their own skudge imprint.

hem presents more chugging grooves from the express, here with a mixture of pure sunshine and raw sounds from the underground. remixes from hems shutter and legend inigo kennedy!

the new ep from memoria comes from fast-rising romanian producer vid whose previous outings have come on labels including fear of flying and barraca music. vid (vidum) aka sorin rastoaca is a producer obsessed with nature and organic sounds. his latest release >rebirth<, is stripped but not light on feeling, and mines a vein somewhere between deep house and minimal techno. etime is a fluttery, eerie cut that works on many subtle layers. like the feathery minimal percussion of villalobos, the romanians sounds present like flapping butterfly wings as a kick drum punches out a varied pattern below. poem is a little louder and bolder, with a firm rolling kick drum and drunken, wubby sounds running right through its core. plenty of sonic details flesh out the languorous but slightly tribal groove. rebirth is again about little tiny details and how they evolve with time, but the framework they inhabit this time is deep, late-night house with gentle tinkles on keys coming over like a fluttering candle in the dark. 3729 gets its head down and mines a shifty, itching and tight minimal groove, closing out an ep which shows vid to be a master of working minimum sounds into maximum effects.

oxia never sounded so classy and so emotional – two major features of the labels trademark. on the flipside, flying over time is an obvious wink to chicagos heydays. deep in its purest form! 300 copies for the world,no repress!

warm, sparse, subtle pulsating ambient/ambient house album.
what is behind >human too<? its the debut album by thomas bachner – the hidden mind running playtracks records, releasing his debut album. first audio studies recognise the order of the tracks: in the end, the ten stories, each embedded in the right place, shape the album like a well-written childrens book of sound. its the first glimpse into the depths of the playtracks head and it feels curious and thriving at the same time. catalogue number 11, it reaches the human ear from several directions: downtempo, house, clicks&cuts, ambient and a subtle bit of techno and jazz. by filling the albums grooves they make it an audititve pleasure, both at home and while clubbing. enjoy your meal!

the second edition of the mosso series adheres to its archetypal plan, as alejandro mosso leads us forwards on his musical trek and through the grooves carved onto this record. for this new number, alejandro mosso decided to delve back into his archives and take a closer listen to some forgotten, unfinished pieces. some listeners will surely recognise certain bits of this record as they were part of mossos live performance years ago. this is however the first time they will be edited and see the light of day. on the a-side, aconcagua is a festive theme on which a magnetic marimba riff turns into an escalating melody, surrounded by a forest of ascending percussions - characteristic of mossos production – lightly floating around it. cashmere, the flip, was conceived while airborne on a flying carpet, half way above the indian subcontinent and below the countles gleaming stars. perfect instance of alejandro mossos talent, it is a subtle blend of hovering winds and crystallized textures. the bansuri flute and the clave go hand in hand to form reassuring horizons, the soundtrack for a longer moment of hope, greater perspective and spiritual transformation.
