bad taste recordings hit 2016 in severe kinetic style with a fresh pair of tracks launching the identity of malux, the new neurofunk-focussed moniker of established bass producer skope (inspected). with turbine and fonk the agenda is clear – energetic, funk-fuelled dnb driven by detailed low-frequency design and a boisterous rave vibe.
turbine carries with it a stripped aesthetic, with a percussive pattern driven by the snare and wonky plucked synth work. this is heads-down, bassface material for ravers to get into step to.
fonk on the flip hits a cheeky upbeat tone, switching slickly between bass textures punctuated by staccato sonic fragments.
with support from scene titans such as andy c, the upbeats and radio play from friction on bbc r1 and crissy criss on kiss fm, malux has immediately caught the attention of those who know. bad taste hits the nail on the head again, introducing another name with a big destiny into the halls of dnb.

2016 repress!!!! slow life finally get out the first release from their label, albeit not before the second one dropped! skittering, jersey-edged numbers sit alongside juno-acid bangers and a wailing sax detroit cut. killer!

its a great pleasure to welcome back waze & odyssey to the label, since their first please dont dance ep on dirt crew wich was released in early 2013 and that featured an excellent detroit swindl remix botht duos have had a massive rise and impact on the underground house scene worldwide. waze & odyssey have also had killer releases on their own imprint w&o street tracks and with their latest on the downlow single they stormed the dancefloors and major radio playlists. waze & odyssey is best know for their straight up bangin’ house cutz and with these two tracks you get exactly that! go go go is a filterred house banger that takes us back to the early chicago and french house productions from the mid 90s. on the other side of this fine 10 the deeper and more electrofied we go home delivers some nasty breakdowns and with its manic pitched and ascending lead sound it should shake and stir your brain to get your feet moving for sure. pure dance floor action with these two new waze & odyssey tracks!

spanish dj & producer, eduardo de la calle, has continued to explore the outer limits of the electronic palette since his cadenza records debut back in 2013, clocking up stellar releases for the likes of mule musiq, hivern discs, be as one and nonplus over the last couple of years. eduardo returns to cadenza in february with the ‘anima animus’ single, coupling two tracks of refined techno for your listening pleasure. taking inspiration from the psychologist/philosopher carl jung’s concept of anima and animus (and do take the time to explore this), eduardo marries arpeggiated synths and melodic chords with a soft kick and tantalizing hats, producing a slick piece of reflective techno that’s alive with melody and groove. on ‘north pole’, we get more of the signature ‘de la calle’ sound, subaquatic bass and searing, melancholic strings play out over a steady mechanical beat, nodding its head not only to the detroit masters but also to the european new wave sounds that influenced the motor city artists in the first instance. another assured single release from eduardo that will further solidify his place in the current electronic music landscape.

counter pulse presents number 15 in it s limited vinyl series with a release by berlin artist myk derill, who delivers three tracks made up from his trademark sound of raw, futuristic atmospheres and heavily dubbed-out techno grooves. the title track -mess- also receives a superbly deep work-out by roberto from fachwerk. this will be a strictly vinyl only release for a while, with the digital versions appearing later in the year, but for now, full respect to the vinyl guys, you get to spin this first !

discodemuerto is an electronic music label dedicated to the difusion of a deep, hard and repetitive sound . for discomuerto, music must be thick, whining and personal. discodemuerto will get from the cave those slow and blunt grooves. to sum up, discodemuerto is darktechno!

chicago style featuring whooshing strings, grinding bass and generally heavily elevating vibes. flipping over to side b things quickly get deeply hypnotic and very acidic indeed courtesy of pagan ritual’s squelching and jacking box-jam ‘think like me’, another bomb no doubt destined to sit in many a dj-bag for a long time.

almost exactly three years after nr&, a project uniting &me’s and rampa’s production with the voice of new york disco-house-siren nomi, dropped their debut ep, we finally can announce a new chapter in this ongoing transatlantic menage. this very “spoken for” ep is comprised of two new tracks, that again fuse songwriting with floor-demands and showcase the same crackling and pulse quickening passion that instantly has become nr&’s trademark. so here’s the evidence – a long distance relationship is not necessarily doomed to get boring after a while. “taste like” on a might be conceived as the club-affair of those two new joints. a tune indulging in self-control, extending the pre- eruptive moment of excitement to track length. there is nomi’s unmistakeable sexed up oration, flanked by an affirmative thunderstorm of claps, then a bass heavy bridge, overflowing into a noise brushed finale. altogether a tasty flavour carrier for an effective floor heating. “spoken for” is not only the title track, but also the hymn coming out of the flipside ambush. there is no kick necessary to underpin what nomi’s charismatic croon is laying down. therefore a wise choice to let the arrangement of interspersed field recordings, percussive details and piano- and synth-decoration exercise in unobtrusiveness. safe to say, this tune will refine many future peaktimes anyway.

a:g delivers his vinyl debut on aquavit, with something for both house and techno heads! with the title track dobra mare being a journey into endlessly deep dub techno soundscapes with a strong rolling bottom end for the darker rooms, the flipside offers a homage to the classic roland tr707 drum machine with the percussion sounds we all know so well, accompanied by a big bass lead to remember the next day. both tracks also get proper remix action: label boss robert solheim goes deep and progressive for dobra mare, and icelandic wonder boy viktor birgiss does a melodic deep dub house approach to i wish i had a 707.

originally released in 2008 as a limited edition cd. *sniper beats* is now finally available on vinyl from kingunderground, with download code included. *sniper beats - underscores for drama & action* contains 13 instrumental tracks from mr parkers vast production collection. each track was originally selected by lewis and recorded raw out of the sp-1200 (with no external samplers involved). those same tracks have now been remastered for this limited and much anticipated vinyl release. this is a must have in any long time lewis parker fans collection and for any newcomers a record that shows his pedigree as one of the best sampling producers in the game right now. limited to 300 copies this will likely sell out fast so get your orders in now to avoid disappointment.

the bush is a homage to the place where i have lived for the last decade (askew road). the askew road itself is slowly changing so i wanted to document all the places that play a big part in mine and my families lives before they eventually get sold for more flats or tescos. 002 was all about the mighty sun pub which has now been sold and transformed into a costa coffee and an estate agents. next up is our local park which hopefully will never see change as its been our little slice of heaven in w12 since we moved here.

every dog has that certain spot: you scratch it, and your four-legged friend starts kicking out in highest ecstasy, losing all control of his reflexes. the tunes of timboletti work pretty much like that. only he s using full-bodied bass lines to stimulate his audience. it almost seems like the bodies on the dancefloor get invisibly connected to the membranes of the speakers and their rhythmic movement. on top of that, timboletti employs psychelicious sounds and melodies, enchanted sample scraps and a pinch of acid, a cocktail that tickles through the brain of the listener as if somebody poured a glass of champagne into it. the essence of forward thrust and deepness, on this ep in five different variations and tree further remixes.

here comes the long awaited 2nd edition of my love is underground reissue compilation!

the second installment is brought to you by simple symmetry. we can try to explain to you what this xxx002 is all about, but we wont. only thing we will tell you, is that this piece of art has travelled the world. born in the heart of moscow with a pit stop in italy to get the final make over in kiev.

"party apex newness dancing action in short p.a.n.d.a. this was the theme song of the panda club in mid 80’s italy where marcello bertini aka dj arch (arch stands for architect, he was studying architecture at that time) was a resident dj. it was pressed on limited edition vinyl to promote the club and parties. a few decades later this 12″ was re-discovered and became an in great demand record for italo collectors. bordello a parigi got in touch with marcello bertini and found out he still had all the original mastertapes, laqcuers and even the cmyk films for the sleeve: a true italo treasure. get ready for some dancing action!"

sublime and slinky four tracker from james dexter on dessous recordings, steve bugs label for the deeper side of house. the young brit shows his mastery of the form with an ep that combines effortlessly club-ready grooves with exceptional sound design and a strong melodic sensibility. dexter clearly know a thing or two about creating dance floor moments, with each track exhibiting a classiness that belies his age. have it like that kicks things off with a chugging, hypnotic feel and crisp drums providing the basis for a cool vocal hook and thick, warm bass. no time gets a shade deeper and no less funky, while get to this points a little further towards the center of the dance floor. closing track 120 goes even further into the late night vibes with a seriously infectious groove.

yse saint laur ant has spent far too long writing and releasing music in one guise or another to endure writing clever promo/impress releases. instead, vinyl only wants to let the music speak for itself keep it simple if you dont like it today then thats cool, we get we cant please all the people, all of the time. however if don t buy from juno today please dont whine to us when you ll be forced to spend the better part of double/treble the price for this very same release on discogs in a few years time

next on raw tools is irish producer and label owner, costelloe, delivering two tracks much in the manner of his previous works, both of them at the fine line between techno and house music.
while the title track, “infiniti” is definitely a dance floor track, with its rave pads and solid bassline, “pheta x” shows a more darker side of costelloe’s music. both of these cuts get special treatment from two of the most prolific and respected producers out there, lerosa and dj overdose, rounding off the ep with two amazing, yet diverse remixes.

„closed sessions“ is a little comeback for our small family business rivulet records, so we re very happy to get help from some good friends on this one. pablo mateo from lack, perseus traxx who has released on bunker and mos, mod.civil from ortloff in leipzig, profile from esthland and our very own stanley schmidt are artists who have been inspiring and exciting us for quite a while and who seem to share the same love for serious dancemusic. although the tracks are very different, the whole compilation is driven by a dark and moody vibe which doesn t let go the utopian and hopeful core of housemusic which has been the light we re been running for since one of these mornings… we hope you like what you hear, thanks for the support! yours sincerely, rivulet.

time to welcome chrissy, a chicagoan dj, producer, edit-maker, blogger, sometime dance music historian and documenter and general hard-working mother f..ker (according to stool pigeon). the smart bar resident has had a string of top drawer releases on house labels such as classic, tugboat edits, razor n tape and hypercolour, not to mention his own brilliant nite owl diner label which he runs with alex burkat. chuck in releases for planet mu and running the juke/footwork label loose squares and you start to get the picture. this guy is a genre-bender extraordinaire and clearly a tireless and highly creative individual so were very proud to have him join us hear for his freerange debut

four tracks of hissing, hypnotic paranoia emerge on the debut from relaxer. on the a side, smeared whispers seethe across viscous grooves that pulse with strange, bittersweet strings. side b’s recoil delivers a stomping 137-bpm techno bomb with an elevator-shaft-freefall. the ep dissolves into glowing pathos on the closing track.

hotflushs remix series continues in style with fresh interpretations of dense & pikas colt and airless. the uk techno duo’s slamming main-room originals are still hot properties, but in the hands of george fitzgerald and grain they get new life and perspective breathed into them.

rezzett are arguably one of the trilogy tapes goto acts. the london duo has previously released a trio of impressive, off-kilter eps of fuzzy house and techno jams for will bankheads much-loved imprint. happily, zik zak is every bit as essential as their previous material, expertly blurring the boundaries between techno, experimental electronics, and distorted hardcore. while the drowsy-but-sweaty hey hugo all sampled vocal yelps, sweeping chords and clattering percussion is probably the most obviously ear-catching of the four cuts, theres plenty to get excited about elsewhere. check, for example, the intricate electronics and eyes-closed loveliness of the title track, and the fluid melodiousness of opener afyon or, for that matter, the comforting bliss of ep closer noklue.

under his chemotex alias, marcos cabral has been one of the trilogy tapes most productive artists in recent times. this is his third 12&#8243,,, for will bankhead’s imprint in less than 12 months. unlike cabral’s recent album for l.i.e.s, which reveled in its’ own distorted, balls-out intensity, thulsa strives to get a balance between becalmed techno hypnotism, skuzzy grooves and gently melodious intent. this blend is perhaps most satisfyingly mixed on the industrial-tinged clank of “delta city-, though the woozier, scuffled late night warmth of “music for security” pushes it close. twice he heads towards deeper territory, first on the title track’s trance-inducing synthesizer loop groove, and secondly on the dubby, locked-in tech-house majesty of “lorentz-.

*dubble attack* is the ultimate deejay selection for producer legend glen brown including u roys king tubby sound system special *number one in the world*, big youths instant rewind *opportunity rock*, three of i roys hardest and hardest to get tunes along with a trio of killers from prince jazzbo and many more, released in 1972 to 1974 on glen browns jamaican label pantomime. in total 14 tracks of highly desirable recordings from the most collectable label of them all, engineered by king tubby. remastered with expanded sleeve notes *dubble attack* is the must have deejay round-up no serious reggae fan can be without. available as cd (digipak) and lp-vinyl with new lacquers cut by kevin metcalfe at soundmasters.

hey everyone – so we re back again finally with number 5. it s taken us ages but expect a slew of 12- releases from us this year. the big news for stores is that we ve gone vinyl only. our reason is simple - we love digging and label honcho the mole only dj s vinyl so why not follow our passion! maybe tomorrow is starting the year off with a doozy from one of the most knowledged disco guru s on earth – koosh. this amazing dude has been keeping canada s west coast edits scene strong and free for many moons. the heads should know him thanks to his releases on cult labels such as common edits, red motorbike and his own 7 inches of love. what you get here are 2 prime cuts that we guarantee to bring the sunshine to any dance floor and a bonus fx ripper to melt minds.

the third and final chapter in a three-part ep series from field records comes from michel isorinne, who has released a number of tapes under various lies in recent times

a passion for techno has always run deeply through his music and under his trevino moniker he is also a powerful creative force (check his recent front album to get the full picture). here, he takes transmission breakdown on a magical excursion, filled with subtle, hypnotic, evolving energy, anchored with an irresistible pul- sating bassline throb - a perfectly synergetic interpretation to round off jona s sidetracking album prologue in style.
