we are extremely excited to announce our second double disk compilation retrospect on mood series! in 2020 and 2021, greyscale was full steam ahead on bringing new music to the cherished discography. in fact, in 2020, greyscale released over 20 eps just on the mood series itself! something we are very proud of and we wish to thank all the artists who have been involved up to this point. a hearty thank you from all at greyscale! as 2021 came we wanted to balance that out with a few retrospectives of the journey. and also, to revisit the cd format which we really enjoy doing compilations on. this installment looks back at mood series 21 thru 40 with a track from each ep! we hope this encourages you to check back with each original ep if you may have missed it and also to revisit some of your favorites. we would like to thank our supporters for being there to share the enjoyment and the excitement in what we are doing. your feedback has been tremendous and we want you to know we have many exciting and new projects coming (including some different ideas we are trying for the first time!).

a soundtrack for when we pause.

greyscale is set to release its 18th full length cd and this is by one of the busiest and most well respected newer stars in the scene, heavenchord. >o theos einai agapi< is 9 tracks deep of some of the most floaty and serene tracks in our discography. >cloud forest< opens up with a wonderful example of whats to lie ahead. its wide open layered chords arc and shimmer over a soothing spatial background. >deep dimensions< is prone to draw out emotions of long lost memories as you drift along to its echoed-out airy atmosphere. this album isnt fully beatless. there are a few remnants like on >summer grey session< which introduces a broken tech groove while >summer vibes< has you riding on warm waves of calming and peaceful dub goodness. >rare 3< strong chord work shows heavenchords adept craftmanship in this genre that is well beyond his years creating music. the depth created in this album might be its lasting impression. whats not there is as important as what is there. a true shining moment in production!

the second solo album from hollie kenniff (1/2 of mint julep).

a diverse package of original works from fresh talent, established artists and sasha himself.

nils frahm live at funkhaus berlin.

sraunus definitely been in the zone lately. he is back with Òequal melodiesÓ, his second album for greyscale. this is also his second album this year and his tenth album ever released. one note can be a melody, it is only important that the wind blows when youÕre listening to it. nine equal melodies with more than 75 minutes playtime and with sraunus signature organic sound will take you to the magic forest for a serious lush trip. highly recommended! album comes in a very special, 3rd gen, greyscale hardback book type package. hand-assembled, glued and cellophane wrapped with love. released on pressed cd for the best possible quality and extended longevity. limited to 200 copies worldwide. no repress!!

les blades du vent is a marimba-saxophone duet created in 2013 by aida diop and joel musy, one trained in classical percussion, and the other, a jazz musician.this album is a repertoire on the border of genres, between covers, arrangements and original compositions, les blades du vent seeks the marriage of sounds, the balance of colors, the accuracy of the subject, the connivance and the expression.

manta ray is the first release of snowdrops, a french-based keyboard duo composed by mathieu gabry and christine ott (yann tiersen, tindersticks, foudre !)

das album spiegelt die vielseitigkeit im musikalischen universums dirty doerings wieder das nicht nur aus einer gerade 4/4- bassdrum, sondern auch aus gebrochenen beats, hip hop, jazz, weltmusik, gitarren, klavier, klassischen elemente und vielem mehr besteht. es źberrascht uns mit sounds, wie zum beispiel die downtempo-stźcke timeless, &#769,,,,,luisa way und monday only. zusammen mit den clubbigeren tracks wie black forest, &#769,,,,,burning ham oder high level road und purple disco entsteht ein spannungsbogen, der einen unwiderstehlich in den bann zieht.

shakarchi & stranŽus inhabit a secret place in the universe of music, one existing at the intersection of scandinavian poplands, hisingen forest raves and outernational placelessness. faik shakarchi and daniel stranŽus famously started making beats together in the gothenburg tapas-joint coat check where they both worked as clerks. their now 10 years old friendship is the story of legends, their sparse vinyl output the secret love of deep house 12 enthusiasts round the globe the warm, vibrant sounds found on those records a stark contrast to the stripped-down effectiveness of their marathon dj sets, frequently heard within the more nefarious examples of gbg nightlife.

for the past two years, nils frahm has been building a brand new studio in berlin to make his 7th studio album titled all melody, which will be released on january 26th, 2018 via erased tapes, before nils embarks on his first world tour since 2015.
since the day nils first encountered the impressive studio of a family friend, he had envisioned to create one of his own at such a large scale. fast forward to the present day and nils is now the proud host of saal 3, part of the historical 1950s east german funkhaus building beside the river spree. it is here where he has spent most of his time deconstructing and reconstructing the entire space from the cabling and electricity to the woodwork, before moving on to the finer elements, building a pipe organ and creating a mixing desk all from scratch with the help of his friends. this is somewhere music can be nurtured and not neglected, and where he can somewhat fulfil his pursuit of presenting music to the world as close to his imagination as possible.

huron is back with his long awaited album Òinside informationÓ. the berlin based musician has come up with 13 original tracks for his album which sounds somewhere between the idm/glitch/electronica.
Òinside informationÓ is an accomplished coming of age for huron, a conceptual lp that brings together the elements that worked so well on his previous album Òthe other side of realityÓ on raumklang records and his ÒfissureÓ ep on mindtrick records and mixed it into a robust, coherent statement.

obwohl die letzte kompakt-offerte aus dem studio der legendŠren russichen synthesizeristen scsi-9 schon eine weile zurźckliegt Ð 2008, um genau zu sein, mit dem album Òeasy as downÓ (kompakt cd 068) -, hat co-grźnder und techno/house-virtuose anton kubikov nicht auf der faulen haut geaalt, sondern sein eigenes label pro-tez records gepflegt Ð und eine karriere als solo-kźnstler mit klarem drang zur verdubbten tonlandschaft und ambient-musik in die wege geleitet. whatness ist seine erste solo-album-veršffentlichung unter eigenem namen und webt einen luftigen wie schillernden klangteppich, der genau da weitermacht, wo kubikovs exzellente beitrŠge zu unserer pop ambient compilation-reihe aufgehšrt haben. anton kubikovs besonderes ohr fźr ambientes und tonale rŠume war schon immer integraler bestandteil von scsi-9s musikalischer dna, die gerne zwischen fokussierter tanzathletik und ausufernden melodierŠumen changiert Ð doch erst als solo-kźnstler macht er sich daran, diese rŠume wirklich auszuloten und geheimnisvollen klangspuren in neblige, hallende gegenden zu folgen. kubikovs gastspiele auf mehreren ausgaben unserer pop ambient-serie deuteten auf ein vielverprechendes neues projekt im talentpool hin Ð ein versprechen, das mit dem mitreissenden klangbad von whatness mehr als erfźllt wird.

samuel rohrer, the multi-faceted, forward-thinking percussio- nist and producer behind the arjunamusic label, the ambiq trio and a wealth of other musical projects, has set out on his own with a new full-length solo album range of regularity as a double ep set with a deceptive title if ever there was one: the sonic experience of this record is, in fact, a highly irregular one (and a highly welcome one at that). constructed almost entirely upon electronically-treated recordings of acoustic in- strumentation, with a bare minimum of synthesizer voicing, ror vibrates with a compelling organicism as if old-growth black forest trees had conspired together to make an album of ultra-modern improvisational music. indeed, the record feels limned with contributions from some other intelligence, despite being a clear extension of the fluid, percussion-driven musical technique that rohrer has exhibited in previous years.

pźnktlich zum start der science-fiction-serie westworld, hierzulande auf sky atlantic verfźgbar, erscheint auch der soundtrack des filmkomponisten ramin djawadi, bekannt fźr seine arbeiten fźr game of thrones, iron man und person of interest. die doppel-cd ist eine 34-titel-kollektion inklusive instrumentaler neuarrangements bekannter welthits wie back to black (amy whitehouse), black hole sun (soundgarden), paint it black (the rolling stones), a forest (the cure) und no surprises (radiohead).

psychedelic new jazz trio, pioneers in the tel aviv music scene, mainly by introducing through this band a brand new sound, blending jazz with rock and electronics. guitarist/pedal master yonatan albalak, drummer/producer aviv cohen (aka sol monk) and bass player gilad abro, are all well-known jazz-oriented musicians, constantly performing around the world with various projects. the three create under the name of layerz since 2010. things on top of each other is their second album, written and recorded during a 3 days session in the studio. it feels like a natural progression from memory tower their first album recorded in 2012. this album has a distinctly more beats-oriented approach. guests in the album are pianist nitai hershkovits, vocalist kerendun and vocalist marina maximilian blumin.

paul woolford aka special request bleibt seinem typischen, sehr britischen rave-stil treu und liefert - nach releases auf namhaften labels wie planet e (carl craig), running back (gerd janson), xl recordings oder houndstooth - ein atemberaubendes fabric-set ab, das mit klassischem uk und detroit techno von richard d. james (caustic window, polygon window), cristian vogel und dj stingray beginnt, um sich im verlauf zu einer tour de force diverser schattierungen von jungle, drum & bass und noise zu entwickeln.

huge liquid d&b story...

the ambient and soundscapes wing of photic fields, first notions, sets sail on the winds of helge tommervag, better known as mind over midi (silent season, diametric). ten tracks make up explore. frigid landscapes are given an audio voice. sparseness and the unnoticed are turned to by tommervag, the natural landscape of his cold and rugged homeland being the inspiration for this album.

just a classic

hotflush recordings is delighted to announce the arrival of a second full length from sepalcure, the american duo made up of travis machinedrum stewart and praveen braille sharma. arriving four and a half years since their acclaimed debut, 11 track album folding time is a singular and tender statement that lands in may 2016.

nice price !! howlings album -sacred ground- und seine entstehung stehen fźr viele dinge gleichzeitig: zusammenarbeit, improvisation, einfachheit und zufŠlle. obwohl er gerade das demo-level źberschritten hatte, ging der ursprungstrack -howling- anfang 2012 (via dixons boiler room set) viral und erregte in der gesamten elektronischen musikszene aufmerksamkeit, erklomm charts und gewann awards. keiner der beiden beteiligten - singer/songwriter ry x und åme-produzent/innervisions-chef frank wiedemann - hatte das erwartet

as both a producer and the helmsman of the outis music label, dino sabatini has carved out a distinctive musical style that shows a great reverence for both ancient archetypes and future possibilities for change (see, for example, his mnemosyne co-release with edit select, in which each track is dedicated to a separate greek goddess). with one foot planted in a mysterious past and the other foot planted in a world yet to arrive, sabatiniÕs works are carefully realized emotional journeys that intertwine shimmers of optimism with undercurrents of poignancy or nostalgia.

nils frahms late night tales sind eine hypnotische reise durch moderne und klassische komposition, experimentelle elektronik, jazz, dub-techno, filmmusik und soul, gleichsam verstörend wie betörend. viele der tracks, ausgesucht aus seiner reichhaltigen plattensammlung aus schellacks, 7 und lps, kassetten, minidiscs und wav/mp3s, wurden neu editiert und mit effekten versehen. dennoch wirkt die zusammenstellung niemals wie ein mixset, sondern entfaltet sich eher wie eine fluffige daunendecke Über das gemüt des zuhörers. wir begegnen solch unterschiedlichen künstlern wie miles davis, boards of canada und nina simone, während nils frahm selber eine neuinterpretation des john cale tracks 4:33 als exklusives cover beisteuert.

absence is filled with haunting sound and abyssal beauty, marked with profound sensitivity.

steve hauschildt and bnjmn did a great selection in new electronic, modern classical, noise and ambient.
