archive records for its 15th years anniversary decided to celebrate properly with a compilation entitled the crystal collection. it displays some of the works from the label and its artists that go mostly from 1999 to 2004. not necessarily the most popular tracks from the catalogue, but a selection we strongly believe has to be heard in 2015!

after the retrofuture compilation was released, including 8 tracks from newcomer artists from madrid paying homage to one club, the logical move was to present a collection of remixes by already established artists from spain s capital city. released in 2 vinyl eps, retrofuture remixes 1 & 2 includes remixes from some of the most relevant electronic artists of the spanish scene in the last 20 years.

for the 20th release on his acclaimed retrofit label, jay shepheard steps up to deliver an 8 track double 12 inch club album of top quality, dj friendly dance material.

mix the verspielheit of mgmt, the darkness at zola jesus, the groove of the whitest boy alive put atop of morricones or calexicos shimmering desert landscapes and around that certain sexyness and lasciviciousness that remind on the chromatics or glass candys of this world. this is the building, a trio from hamburg. based around the fabled drummer sven elsner (ex tigerbeat), as well as writer and singer daniel chun and pianist and second lead vocalist tina kaempe.

although the damage music berlin label is still in its youth, the creative input is not holding its breath too long: after the success of the damage release dirty doering >loco remixes<, this issue presents a new 12ep that puts even more excellent and fresh urban breath into modern club music. first up is >whats the point?<, a collaboration with label chief alexander kowalski together with jake the rapper. by teaming up with jake the urban electronic guerilla, a cunning and highly-effective headbanging is produced, harvesting a moody and darkly infectious spoken text. >it all boils down< ... what unfolds here is an intense yet uncluttered soundtrack surrounding a mystifying message of sexually metapysical proportions crafted and totally engaging.

the second installment in the split lp series is a dutch affair, but it has everything it needs and more to soon make name far abroad. each side of the record contains a complete work clocking in at about twenty minutes.
side a is >chime ep< by hydrus. the four tracks they contributed stand out because of their meticulous production and their wonderful sense of melody and emotion. this is music in the best electronic tradition, blending hiphop, idm, ambient, funk, drone and badass breaks. hydrus begins this twenty-minute journey with a funky bump and end it in a mess of nervous percussion, splintered to dust.
side b is an altogether positive and quirky piece of work by kettel. like most of his work of the last few years, >yellow baron< is exploding with beautiful melody. in six tracks kettel puts everything to work to make your head bop, to bring a smile to your face and a tear to the corner of your eye. classic stuff, without losing sense of experiment.

from hearsay this shall coming from an unusual suspect, someone who maybe was involved in the making of the first compost release ever? dont know, but its soooo good, we couldnt resist to share this with you. enjoy this low slung ruff house versions of a true soul classic , like amé, mr trueby, c2, !!! and a delighted couple who already have heard or played it. promise: more joy than pain

dj yellows different influences culminate all in this 13 mins long voyage and its more dj friendly edit!! yellow takes advantage in the original mix, drawing out the intro for 5 mins before dropping the beats. an overwhelming bassline twirls up from the beginning accompanied by sweet bell melodies and beautiful warm pads before the madness starts...

kitsune season compilation returns, the fifth of its kind and still homemade and gold wrapped. on board this time there are young girls, sea dogs, californian twins, young wolves and loonies. a wonderful mess, a spontaneous shamble that screams out loud. all of this because of gold rush fever.

spanish producer dancelwerk returns with a second helping on sounderground records with a slamming release called >noises<. already gaining favour from the likes of inxec and sian these tracks do not disappoint! on the a side >strange voices< is a powerful, full on track that still remains gorgeously minimal. complete with heavy basses, lots of synth weirdness and a very deep yet dark >strange vocal< hook thst all adds up to a really sinister peak time track. friendly noises delivers an excellent b side with a really up front techy feel, skippy percussion and driving drums with a very very cool break down, lots of weirdness,nice!

remix-package to one of the biggest wir hits. newcoming talent kab shows some severe skills with a tight remix that keeps minilogues hooklines in shape but introduces them to its unique world of magical flow while pulling off the impossible, he creates a masterbuilder being tense and tender at the same time. jichael mackson on the other hand constructs a relaxed groove rich in texture, pushing the sounds further and further until the final climax while tracing the original material rather emotionally then rationally. minilogue themselves round off the package with a beautifully dashed ambient version
