groundbreaking scientific news from the franconian space hq. ministers johannes albert and johannes paluka did some research on the moon for their new moon-project. they told us about the days and that it’s not that quiet anymore up there as people thought so far. don’t expect weightlessness up there, expect more abfahrt, they report. but they also discovered new robot dance moves in the nighttime. better known as the dark side. as always international interest in this is huge. moon, the first franconian techno-scientifics in space, checked out the area with very special research findings. smells like future historical stuff.

the kestrel (turmfalke) will rise in spring 2015, starting the new label by matthias springer with focus on physical media. the philosophy behind is to invite friends to this special cross-over concept. every artist presents an original in combination with remixing eachother. in the end 4 tracks on one release, no special genre is preset, everything can happen. frank hellmond is the special guest on the first turmfalke release, bringing in his unique deephouse flavour that features some pretty nice vocals from snowflake, while matthias is turning it into a combination of dub and acid ... but just have a listen.

yo! that is the music people listen to nowadays? yes, indeeeeed. get three tracks for just twenty-five bugs. comes in a fucking unexpected edition limited to hell, so you will need to know guys with the right connection to frank musics distribution. cool frank and rude mo from dreamy city champaign / illinois were used to produce local r&b pop music in the late 80s. these three cuts were found on mixtapes from the early 2010s next to new local r&b pop tracks. dont be en vogue, be frank.
the h.a.n.s. is back. with more tools for fools. four traxx and two extras for the soft working dj and the fast moving dancer. more samples, more nasty beats, more heavy stripped down kaputt groovers. weak kick drums, lazy arrangements & shameless sampling guaranteed. food for fun? maybe rooted somewhere between the early paul jacobs and the late bcc music starring a 2014 twist if you know what i mean. you better remember that h-ouse a-int n-othing s-erious. it is still nothing but big fun.
anthony collins and francis harris keep up the creative pace of their frank & tony project following the recent sprinkles collaboration, and once again a fine selection of tracks from their lp are on offer for deeper, more leftfield kinds of house record bags.love brut is an uneasy burner that uses a minimal amount of elements to create intensity, proving that simplicity is very often the key. the dub mix of resistance is exclusive to the vinyl, and it too keeps a stripped attitude in place with its plain and simple drums peppered with poised melodic content. villa seurat has a fuller range of percussion at work but there are no more fireworks to be found here than there are elsewhere on the ep, appealing to a more subtle kind of taste
towards distance - embarking upon a journey into the unknown, where only the journey is the reward – not the destination. a road trip into distance. towards the horizon. getting in motion and never standing still.

a bunch of bubbling uk deep house players line up on introducing newington, a new label of the same name that is clearly fond of the n16 postcode with vocal house on the menu. ejeca, the irishman earmarked as the next bicep, keeps up his relentless form this year with the opening track robodrum which is a playful shuffling little house number that rotates between stabbing vocal samples and piercing chords. moving south of the irish border, dublin based frank b kills it with trieste a wonderfully warp cut that sounds like it has been recovered from a dust filled dat tape. london types jack fell down take a cleaner, but no less infectious approach on for you whilst midlands type tom flynn rounds it out with the deep and bouncy going on.
