file under jungel / hardcore , 4 track ep from dj jedi featuring three authentic 92-93 style hardcore/jungle tracks, plus bonus old skool scratch samples.

progressive electronic duo, formed in 2016 by seasoned beatsmith tsuruda (darker than wax, team supreme, division) and experimental artist huxley anne (dome of doom/alphapup), paint incorporates all aspects of both member’s creativity. the duo was inspired as the two were coming up in the la beat scene, often adding visual elements to their live performances while writing genre-defying songs in the studio. their style draws largely on abstract hip-hop, jazz, bass, and grime influences, but unites these elements into seamlessly painted soundscapes that stand out in the modern sea of electronic music. their powerful rhythms, colored nuances, and expressive lead synth tones ignite in the paint live show, where you can often find the duo mashing custom visuals together while spinning tracks back to bac

four track vinyl label compilation, vol.4

having already blessed the airwaves with their masked boiler room performance, and with releases and features seen on yume, huntley’s & palmers, permanent vacation and antho- ny napel’s probito, the promising talents of edinburgh duo hi & saberha&#776,gen continue on lo with ‘acid finger’. the five track ep showcases exactly what the pair are known for, exploring the balance of the subtle and direct natures of dance music. there is something extremely unique about their productions that breathes new life into an arguably stat- ic climate. ‘acid finger’ travels from highs to lows at a consistent and co- herent pace, starting with the sparkling, disco tinged ‘force&#769, boi&#770,te’. euphoric heights are executed through light flourish- ing synth lines, drum patters and chord stabs. ‘woodrum’ maintains the pace but switches the tone with jungle rhythms and a pounding bass. ominous belter ‘git’ with its driving kick, looped vocal sample and rolling bass. the track develops into a hopeful finish with the introduction of glittering synth movements. title track ‘acid finger’ delivers beautifully delicate percus- sive and melodic work that progressively shapes up against fleeting shrill synth lines that come to a fitting crescendo. ending the release is the melancholic atmospheres created in ‘redacted’, bringing a shift in mood and imitating a trudge through memory lane. expect to see and hear a lot more from these guys in the future..

with the 3-track ep mantra joix opens a new dimension in his electronic music. for the first time he uses his own voice on a larger scale, giving it a machine-like sound that transforms and heightens the meaning of his german words.

the lead track -mantra- refers to the techno movement in germany in the 90s, which joix lived and breathed as a teenager. those mystical experiences staying awake all night in rooms full of light and sound ÔÇ came close to the trance states attained by chanting mantras. this is the main idea and the emotional inspiration behind this pulsating a-side track.

a touch of nostalgia also comes through -w?ñchter der nacht-. this tune channels the mysterious night, the search for ecstasy and self-dissolution in music clubs protected by the guards of night. finally, klimax is a dancefloor banger that distinguishes itself by whipping up immense energy, and its space-filling melody and enormous hall cascades.

all that funk! (officially licensed from the mighty jalapeno records) has had djs begging for a 7inch release since the first listens of basement freaks time machine lp in 2016. the wait is over and this james brown influenced groove is ready for dj’s and fans of funk alike. calling the jams is an exclusive roller skate disco boogie joint influenced by the new york city block party disco scene. the bridge will surely delight fans of early prince vibes. with a fifth full studio album, an enviable catalog of ep’s and remixes, and his extraordinary amount of time playing shows across six continents, basement freaks has been dubbed the hardest working man in funk by his peers. boogieburg proudly presents this glimpse into the world of greece and germany’s ever-evolving basement freaks. past, present, and future.

nice price deal !!! berlins n.phect unleashes his debut release on slr. the a side finds him killing the floor with a big slice of future funk. on the flip, label owner mayhem joins up with n.phect to create >made in berlin<. a collaboration filled with big bass and rolling rhythms.

nice price deal !!! after a year that saw a number of fast paced releases from new co-signings xilent, high maintenance and fourward, the mighty mainframe continued their relentless string of hits in 2012 with a reworking of body & soul and fourward’s classic >authority< and >carnage<. led by dnb veteran and label owner, disaszt, mainframe keeps things moving with yet another massive release, this time an explosive ep from rising star, high maintenance.

a strange confluence of sound that sounds part krautrock synth label brain records, part hyperdub. techno haze and synth wormholes with spectacular sound design that has banged at berghain and soundtracked winter night drives. greenspan is known mainly for his work with junior boys and jessy lanza and taraval is a longtime touring member of caribou, but both have released several 12” and eps of electronic exploration over the past few years. inspired by synthesizer minimalists like jd emmanuel, cluster and john carpenter, the two attempted to create a type of dance music with hardware that was indebted to their influences but did not feel intrinsically retrogressive. the idea was to make a type of raw synthesizer and drum machine music that could be listened to beside the hypermodern techno of pearson sound or actress. the cover art is a tribute to a mysterious mural that looms over the hamilton ontario area where the album was recorded. each of the five tracks on the ep were edited down from much longer recording jams which were done with hardware sequencers in real time. the recording was done completely off the floor with no overdubs or added material after the fact.

originally released in 1999, the cultish reputation of the mysterious blindboy s sole offering to the world has attained it a high second hand value, and so archeo recordings have done the right thing and actioned a reissue. ruckus in lo fi is steeped in balearic guitar tones, downbeat hip hop cuts and forays into sumptuous jazz funk. there s also a remix from joe morris, who fashions a brooding, epic remix of -i dream- loaded with simmering tension without losing the funky warmth of the original. with all kinds of mellow pouring out of this one, any stone cold chillers out there won t want to sleep on this one.

sfsb recordings welcome mr hot mood to the stable for our second release, following his previous releases on tugboat edits, editorial, masterworks, deep sense an whiskey pickle records. side a s lets get it and lost soul head toward the deeper side of mexico s finest, with -let s get it- looping itself into an underground frenzy before releasing the crowd into a classic 1970s chant and them throwing them over to a killer organ hook, a must for 4am. -lost soul- takes you even deeper in to the realms of 70 s soul, bringing it into the 21 century with its beefed up lick - i wanna hold on, and let my love grow strong-, reminiscent of the original mark e working that helped start the movement. side b ôthe g groove- proves to be another early set summer anthem, completely heads down whenever it gets played, while -keep on dancing- does exactly what it says on the tin. the hardest track of the ep is left till last, with its -keep on dancing- call to arms for the dance floor reinforced by a destructible sax loop, it should be called martini, anytime anyplace anywhere. these tracks definitely reflect the sounds of south beach, produced with love by hotmood, curated by south beach recycling. dj support: session victim, sleazy beats, art of tones, dave allison, 80s child, disco tech, black loops,78 edits, homero espinoza, martin hayes, dj moar, coeo, osmose

turbo recordings is proud to present a release a full year in the making. a&rÆd by turbo elder thomas von party, gender embodies the adventurous spirit of his own multi culti label, and marks a return to the kind of mega remix pack we used to make when the world was young and an alternate dub rework was all you needed to get by. germanys skinnerbox sets the template with a high-speed jungle rave banger, which is an accurate enough description but not something we would expect you to ever repeat out loud. the 12-inch also features versions by swedish nice guy axel boman, who missed the submission deadline by 13 minutes but still managed to turn in a 12-minute epic jam, and glasgows auntie flo, who somehow harnessed the siren song of the iphone with a marimba-heavy mix.

we ve waited a long time to bring you this, and finally, tiger stripes presents the 6th release on his strange idols label, and what a track this is, so worth waiting for! from its beginnings as a moodymann secret weapon, you could already hear the potential for underground techno greatness. running is both haunting and seductive... underground but strangely familiar... artificial but still organic...a living breathing techno organism...a creature of the dark.... a siren s call... let yourself be drawn in, let the voice seduce you... surround yourself with that rhythm... drown yourself in that groove...! san proper heard it a little differently and gave us his take on it, and gave life to a different kind of monster, way too powerful to contain. so we give you two different versions that share the same fundamental dna, two versions that are both so completely unique but still two equal parts of the same fantastic organism. strange idols will lead those who are willing.

the 3 release. 3 artists. 3 solid tracks. rex hansson has made a solid original version. you clearly hear his skills as a past percussionist. the beats together with skånska vocals, low key rhodes and some 303 knob twiddling make this track special and great. emil nyman. this mix is something. it’s tossing and turning from a metallic sound to the softest wood. from the deepest parts of the ocean we follow the pads and organ up in the sky. the b side is dedicated clark eng. a minimal offbeat version with low toms and rattling high sticks, claps and snares. the track is moving like a newcomen engine. the minor changes all the time makes it to a hypnotic minimal house track.

new record on help recordings by the arhus quartet maizena. this one is one of those more relaxing and introvert records we put out to stress the fact that life is not always about dancing. pretty sounds and not too many unpleasant or scary moments. most of the music is in the vain of their earlier work on no hands, regelbau and help, a rhythmical ambient music. recorded in the isolated haelge studios surrounded by nothing but the sea and the mols mountains.

science fiction shifted from their early deep territories of house to the current broken beats of electro, keeping the characteristic classic analogue warmth. this ep is made by various artists, and it comes under the signature of an obsessive majestic presence of the 808 beat, that sounds like an accidental tribute to the creator of this drum machine, founder of roland corporation, that has died on april the 1st as a fool that changed the way to make music since early 80es. tracks are mostly sustained, from synched sequences of hinode to the final atmospheric obscure modular landscapes of exterminador, chromed by ngly distortions in track 02. dj nephil on the b side introduces a solid visionary chicagesque mellow atmosphere.

having made her mark on brazil’s rich musical legacy with three best-selling albums to date, rio’s original nu-bossa queen returns with a tour de force of golden-era brazilian soul music

diese schallplatte schafft neue möglichkeiten, plattenspieler zu überprüfen und einzustellen. die meisten tests (außer frequenzgang) können auch ohne mess- instrumente, also nur mit dem gehör durchgeführt werden und eignen sich daher besonders für den ambitionierten musikhörer, der wissen will, wie gut seine anlage unter realistischen bedingungen mit anspruchsvollen signalen zurecht kommt und ob bedarf für reparaturen oder verbesserungen besteht.

this record createsnew possibilities of inspecting and adjusting record players. most tests (except for frequency response) can also be carried out without measuring instruments, just by listening, and are therefor particularly well-suited for the ambitious music listener who wants to know how well his system deals with demanding signals under realistic conditions, and wether there is a need for repairs or improvements.

thule s dark doppelganger ae recordings was revived last year with the excellent freyja ep by nonnimal, and now the saga continues with this devastatingly on-point release from cold. much like the vibe on thule, the music on thule continues to channel the mood of the icy tundra into refined, modern club tracks, but there s definitely a more sinister intent at work in these tracks from cold. -aerials- is a nightmarish chugger loaded with eerie sonics, while -phased out- lays down some fine dubby processing over a bed of chilly chord pulses. -exiles- is a standout track thanks to its crafty groove, coming on a little more housey than its counterparts but still heavier than the average thule jam.

all djs and producers around have at least one secret weapon to play. this series curated by marvin & guy is the equation that joins together very special edits from very special artists. it will be out in three volumes in different colours: first black, second grey and third white.
the equation series are being released exclusively on vinyl, a limited edition of 300 copies, no digital formats will be released, and distributed by kompakt. with equation 3 the a-team is back once again and they have changed players for this third and last half. this time they bring along the madrileño who mixes movie trailers as well as house classics, the frenchie living in the big apple who once started his career rocking the piano at the conservatory, the german who makes compilations of weirdo 80ies jams in his spare time and the irish guy living in the land of the round butts nowadays, but once ruled the nyc disco scene fully on his own.

following on the heels of releases on labels as etruria, cocoon and elevate, italian-based dast makes his debut on off recordings. the ep kicks off with raid zone , a classic and timeless piece of spacy bigroom chord techno. system failure with its unsettling lead takes things more towards the latenight realm. and juan sanchez delivers an even more stomping and peaktime interpretation of raid zone , perfect to destroy festival dancefloors.

ltd repress / black vinyl

colourful recordings welcome a new addition to the family with amsterdam crew dilated pupils dropping quantum space ep. a record setting a mark both sonically and musically with its warm thick sound signature and diverse track selection. if the a side is dreamy with floating textures and minimal grooves, b side is more earthy and straight up housy, yet still with a strong musical identity.

nice price deal !!! brilliant house tune. judge jules said: >tune of this summer!< plays by pete tong, jules, all the others!!! incl komytea remix

nice price deal !!! likhan swings himself away from the dubtech sound with two deep house inspired jaunts. while theres traces of his former sound, both tracks operate on a house tempo with melodic organ motifs and laidback percussion more inspired by the prescription catalogue or dj gregory than anything in the modern dubste quarters. however, its not all nice, keeping some semblance of dirt under the fingernails with rude squelching bottom end and ruffed-up soca shuffles compatible with the post-step, funky brigade

valioso016 - “koi fish ep” comes along with the two heidelberg talents jan golly (be9) and durrred (the gathering). the ep includes two trippy and straight minimal tracks. first track “koi fish” can be played within a peak time set, while “quotes” fits more to an after hour environment. both tracks will be completed by a virtous and flowing remix of romanian dj & producer cristi cons.

„subaquatic modular vibes. vibrant colors, peaceful textures. the feeling of swimming underwater, standing on top of a mountain.“
