promise land is a solid deep soulful groove created by koyla. the demo floated around the bombay itunes player for a few of weeks, we needed someone to tear this track up. we tried a couple of options it wasnt working this groove needed something killer. thats were good friend jrod indigo come into play, san fran neo soul singer decides to come into lovely vancouver to hang for a while at bombay studio hq, and thats were the story starts for this track. jrod writes and lays down his song and creates the promise land over koylas ripping hooks and players. everyone is diggin the direction, timmy comes in and throws in some backups, inhouse producers sean dimitrie and nav take all the parts and put together a b side. the awaaz mix takes the track into a late night bumping funky direction with ambient tripped out textures and hard detroit style chords. overall this is a classic style ep with a real organic disco avour, that will never die for us. koyla and jrod are true musicians and deserve the fullest respect in this genre.

oliver koletzki complied his personal favorite tracks with some previously unreleased, high-impact material on >remix tales<

the french trio evergreen (previously name we are evergreen) grew up listening to pop music from the us and the uk. yet, like many of the most influential artists of todays french pop scene (fishbach, halo maud, etc.) they value both french and english to deliver their message. this new album Ôoverseas was recorded with ash workman (fran�ois & the atlas mountains, metronomy, christine and the queens), and see the band use a warm sound loaded with synthesizers and draw influences from the likes of django django, air or metronomy to craft percussive electro-pop songs.

nach bescheidenen, ersten acid-house-sets in der legend�ren hacienda bis zu dj-residenzen in weltber�hmten superclubs, nach einer umfangreichen diskografie mit studioalben, mixsamplern und remixes (darunter f�r madonna und the chemical brothers), nach grammy-nominierung, eigenem studio in new york und eigenem label (last night on earth), kr�nt der britische dj/produzent sasha seine karriere nun (vorl�ufig) mit einer fabric-ausgabe. mit klassikern von carl craig, mathew johnson und exercise one und j�ngeren juwelen von dj koze, dj hell und objekt beweist sasha einmal mehr seine f�higkeiten, broken beats und ambient-trips komfortabel neben dub-techno und euphorischem house zu platzieren.

cd edition in 2-panel digipack, 20-page booklet with exclusive pictures and notes from jeanne moreau, fran�ois truffaut and cyrius bassiak (aka. serge reznavi).an emblematic actress and a memorable figure of the french chanson scene, jeanne moreau passed away in 2017. she started singing as an amateur in theatre like the com�die fran�aise, but always wanted Òto sing balladsÓ. the man who wrote her first songs was her friend: the painter cyrus bassiak (pseudonym of serge rezvani) and like for many other artists jacques canetti was the one who brought her to a recording studio to record her first songs in 1963. this album pays homage to jeanne moreau by compiling for the very first time all the songs written by cyrus bassiak, including 4 songs that were nowhere to be found until today.

oddball space disco/funk tracks, composed between 1970 and 1985. big tip! a master of the mixing board, from the late 60s until the 90s bernard estardy was the wizard of french musical recordings. as head of cbe studios, he shaped everything from g�rard mansets concept albums to claude fran�ois hit singles, fran�oise hardys delicate tear-jerkers and michel sardous soul-stirrers. this giant had his hand in the whole range of mainstream french music by making his studio a veritable playground for experimentation. his legendary album la formule du baron, released in 1969, and the eight lps of production music he made between 1974 and 1978 for tele music are vivid proof. in the cbe studio, which she runs today, his daughter julie estardy discussed his singular career.

cd in 2 panels digipack with spot varnish and poster booklet. les fils du calvaire are a francophone trio from the electronic chanson francaises new wave. before adopting their current name 3 years ago, the band was called dop, and already has a solid background in the music production. indeed, les fils du calvaire were also used to being among the best hip hop beatmakers of france providing rappers such as oxmo puccino and composing for mythical jamaican figure (horace andy & johnny osborne). after a first noteworthy single rester avec toi, they are releasing an album in line with the pioneers of the chanson fran�aise, adding a subtle note of humor and derision. jointly created with ash workman (metronomy, christine and the queens), fils de is the perfect balance between french tradition and modernity.

just in time for autumn, fran invites us into club musics parallel world with the project hamlet: aided by oded k.dar (n�rd / the koletzkis) on the piano, she presents cover versions of beloved electronic classics such as Ôsky and sand, Ôlimit to your love, Ôhowling or Ôhypnotized on the fittingly titled album Ôpiano. the initial idea came to the duo at a birthday party, the first baby steps followed the very next day. surprised by the potential, the autodidactic singer fran and the studied concert pianist oded searched far and wide for the perfect grand piano, which they eventually found in the form of an old steinway at the greve studio in berlin.

die 26-j�hrige britisch-japanische k�nstlerin maya jane coles setzt einen weiteren meilenstein in ihrer noch jungen laufbahn. von den fachmedien - von resident advisor �ber mixmag bis zur ehrw�rdigen bbc - mehrfach ausgezeichnet, gipfelte ihre aktuelle anerkennung mit einem herausragenden platz 15 der top 25 einflussreichsten djs der welt, die der us-rolling stone ende 2012 herausgab. charakteristisch f�r maya jane coles ist ihr meditativ-antreibender techno/house-stil, der nach einer ersten -dj-kicks--compilation 2012 und ihrem deb�talbum -comfort- 2013 nun auf der neuen fabric-ausgabe zum vorschein kommt. gepr�gt von melodischen qualit�ten und einer enormen effektivit�t, erleben wir hier eine weitere ausgezeichnete dj-perfomance einer echten ausnahmek�nstlerin.

next oliver koletzki output..

everything comes in its own time: a wordly wisdom that marcus henriksson and sebastian mullaert aka minilogue take for granted. since their foundation in the year 1997 they emerged to one of the most respected and hard to pigeonhole electronic music acts world-wide.

awesome cd absolute jazz gold! everyone a winner - a lot of these tracks would have turned dingwalls, london, upside down back in the day! tip!

incl. tracks von nicolas jaar, oliver koletzki & fran, jc freaks, dennis ferrer & jerome sydenham, dop, ruede hagelstein feat. meggy oder nicolas sfintescu selbst.

it might sound like an empty phrase, but when oliver koletzki founded stil vor talent in 2005, he certainly didnt anticipate where his label would be today. now - six years and over sixty releases later - stil vor talent can look back at many magnificent moments in the labels history. originally started to give other musicians the chance to showcase their music, stil vor talent has preserved this very down-to-earth attitude until today and has helped foster the careers of producers such as channel x, niko schwind, juli holz or david august to name just a few. while there have never been any musical or stylistic limitations, an open philosophy dominated by quality and individualism prevails at olivers label, from delicately designed record sleeves to their own fashion line and to music that varies from house to pop to jacking dancefloor cuts. now it is time to congratulate everyone involved and the fans of stil vor talent with a special birthday present: a six-year anniversary compilation that celebrates past, present and future of the label on two cds

with niko schwinds first album for stil vor talent you never loose the feeling that each of the tracks would work harmoniously on the dancefloor, but also within the concept of this album that goes from slow-moving vocal house to pretty nifty tech-house and back. niko schwind is a magician when it comes to producing very fine and mature pieces of house music that are sure to work great on the dancefloor. maybe niko has had the dj in mind that he is himself, as the tracks seem to perfectly provide great productions, but also the ideal ability to mix them in and out, with little samples providing great audible cues. after all, as the title suggests >good morning midnight< is an album with the dancefloor in mind

space invadas is a project of two well-known artists: katalyst and steve spacek. space invadaÕs album soul-fi is receiving rave reviews and airplay from tastemakers around the globe as well as having 4 singles smashed on national radio in australia where the record has been released earlier this year. the album is being championed abroad by likes of gilles peterson on bbc1, garth trinidad on kcrw in la, tyler askew in nyc, andrew jervis (ubiquity) in san fran to name just a few. getting much love in the us and throughout europe where the record is yet to be released via bbe records. looks like its going to be a big year ahead for space invadas.

>we have no agenda. we are not a brand. we stand for people and music. we believe in the beauty of artefacts. we stand for a sense of community. we respect the dance floor because the dance floor never lies.<

surgeons fabric-cd spr�ht vor leidenschaft & imagination. zwei eigenschaften, f�r die diese techno-legende steht. in seinem set verbindet surgeon bew�hrte rave & techno-sounds mit moderner bassmusik, stellt links her zwischen oppression & reduktion, die bislang in dieser form noch nie decodiert wurden und erschafft so ein einzigartiges, generationen �berwindendes kunstwerk!

at its heart, the album celebrates the communal ideal of dance music with spirited, percussive tracks offering a clear distillation of what could only be described as the cadenza sound. but mirko also diverges from the dance floor, ducking into shadowy corners in search of more private emotions. rather than scattering energy, that tension between moods helps bind the album into a potent, coherent whole.

excellent oliver koletzki cd album!feat. mieze katz, axel bosse, die raketen, kate mosh,juli holz,fran & pyur
