colors, the east-london party collective has been on a roll as of late, with a spate of successful events that have taken them across europe to berlin, istanbul and barcelona to name a few countries. as the name suggests, each event draws inspiration from the colour spectrum, with guests encouraged to dress up in a different chosen shade each night to get down to a soundtrack influenced by deep house, funk, disco and techno.

introducing a fresh electronic pairing as azimute (quenum & cesare marchese aka cesare vs disorder), crosstown rebels get set to present a glowing debut ep comprising three original cuts of pure and understated class...

simone gatto, with his second release on out-er holzwege ep, confirms his artistic maturity and his serene approach to music and life, even if on ones way the paths can get broken. due to a perfect use and combination of prophet 12, arturia minibrute, virus and x-base drum machine, the sounds transmit deep and pondering thoughts the artist has experienced, peaceful in some cases, troubling in others. each track represents a motion against the difficulties of life: happy and discouraging moments happen and alternate, our actions cause consequences, and everything have to be faced somehow. the synths are melodious, timid and gloomy at the same time, indicating that happenings arrive, interchange and pass over. the patterns are detroit inspired and the beats always soft and gentle, never impetuous, while ambient and pads go with the groovy wave created by kicks, hi hats and basses. a journey that has to be lived, any development it brings.

fantastic four track album sampler from jay haze & esb’s forthcoming ‘finding oriya’ album released this november on leftroom. philadelphia-born producer jay haze has carved out quite the career for himself over the past decade, having headed up the successful tuning spork and contexterrior imprints, as well as operating under his fuckpony pseudonym which has seen him unveil material for the likes of get physical, cocoon and bpitch. here we see haze pair up with esb (electric sound broadcast) aka elan benaroch, notably known for his work with canada’s deepen sound, to deliver a long player for the leftroom label. finding oriya is the musical culmination of the journey towards fatherhood for haze, here we see haze & elan explore a variety or ethereal, mind-bending and profound textures to create an intelligent, understated and charming collection. from the electronic beauty of finding oriya, the dropped-tempo nu-disco tinged feel of founded in you, through to the entrancing feel of friday always remembers, ands the mid-tempo magic of cant keep giving in, this eclectic four track sampler is a great introduction to the eagerly anticipated album.

in between the re-releases of the two legendary drexciya albums released on tresor in 99 and 01, the berlin techno institute is proud to re-present transllusions *mind over positive and negative dimensional matter*, the 12 inch single which originally accompanied the album *the opening of the cerebral gate*.

nofitstate return with four tracks from hot talent a1 bassline whose reputation has been building of late from a succession of releases for the likes of dirtybird, get physical and gruuv amongst others. here hidden agenda finds the young producer in true devastating form. skippy percussion, a nod to the uks garage scene, vibes the track along nicely whilst the bass does the damage. burnt out piano island delves deeper, acting as a neat counterpoint to the more main room agenda. here the style is much more nuanced with a more hypnotic leaning. outsider picks up the pace against, albeit in a subtle, uplifting vibe with warped pianos and razor sharp percussion. t moe p rounds things off nicely with a moody bassline driven groove.

mallorcas dakpa has been on a roll since amam released his debut ep last fall. he has contributed to several compilations, including amams own hand out series, kina music s fade to k pt. 3 and wizz vinyl s sonar sampler 2014, plus eps for labels like district raw and serial number 849. but amam gets the honor of issuing his first own vinyl release, the distres ep. the opening title track is an exercise in jacking minimalism, vibrant tech house with just the essentials, but more than enough to get the floor moving. then, ademus gets into a slightly more colorful groove, with tropical percussive interplay and some whooping voice for a humanistic accent (is that brigitte bardot?). on the flip, virgo gives a modern update to the frenzy of acid house. the title alone brings virgo four to mind. on that note, this one is an effective tool for warping minds and evoking spastic dance moves. finally, the dependable gaetano vinci a.k.a. hooved reinterprets ademus with a heavy dose of melodic funk and symphonic washes, making the track into an entirely new creation.

two top secret bangers for all floors and all ages. we cant say who did this. limited to 500 copies strictly vinyl. get them while they last. already support from aaron dae (razor-n-tape)

industry sheds all personalized effort and tests how far you can get by using presets only. all sounds are factory presets of 3 obsolete 1990s japanese workstation synths, all effects are presets, all notes are quantized and most panning is purely accidental (laid out in the preset sounds). industry doesnt rely on successful presets, but on failed sounds of now obsolete synthesizers - industrial assumptions of where culture will go, but where it chose not to. the result is a surprisingly pleasant listening experience with effortless grooves and rich textures - and mildly demonic connotations. from smooth to kicking - a conveyor belt enjoying mood swings. as beautiful as the scheduled meeting of a pvc sheet and a thermoform mould on a workbench.

*head off, heart on* is next to go. this ep of our artist juzz contains two brand new tunes, both revealing in depth sight on the producers perception. *i felt a deep urge to get rid of all my conceptual influences regarding the way of creating my music. almost like a purifying force that guided me back to the roots of expressing my emotions through music- says the long time producer and dj. constantly being surrounded by music got me more and more into a repetitive workflow. remembering the freedom and innocence of my first attempts in the studio led to this sole conclusion: turn your head off and your heart on.* and the result speaks for itself: highly emotional music wrapped in functional arrangements, aiming to move your soul. accompanied by two astonishing remixes from markus homm and dreksler & haerle, who both got only one demand: head off, heart on.

time will tell they say, and so it didnt… *lebush* had been lost in the minibar archive since 2005, making a few strongly unnoticed reappearances year in, year out, before finally ending up on glucks *…just the tip* ep today. the package comes with a self-explanatory lebush-kickmix version by cabanne, as well as two debilitating slices of interstellar ear pain called *in lov* and *werehouse*, both recorded while performing freestyle dentistry on a dead yet actively reluctant coat hanger. while doctors, surgeons and butchers the world over can only frown, you can get your own copy before they’re banned in your country.

for most people, seth troxler is a name associated with detroit-leaning house and techno. yet this only scratches the surface of troxler s musical outlook, hence the formation of soft touch records, an imprint focused on peeling back the layers of the exotic and the strange, where interstellar guitar, calypso disco and seductive techno tracks can come together in unison and feel totally at home. on the labels first 10- release, long time friend and guy gerber collaborator, clarian, collects three tracks for soft001, a kaleidoscopic journey through 6am electronics, afro-beat indie pop and sixties west coast heartbreak. it s a bold opening statement for a label prepared to break the mould, get you on the floor with a whispered promise through the dry ice.

black rox is back with 2 more sneaky soft rocks specials that have somehow been liberated from locked cd wallets and released into the wild for general consumption. the a side sabu dance combines horns, flutes & percussion on this killer slice of midtempo funk from africa via berlin. this has been thoroughly road tested by soft rocks at their kinfolk night & never fails to get a great response from the dancefloor. side b. don t worry it s not the tantric one s ode to voyeurism but a rare as hens teeth slice of uk. reggae at is s finest. adjustments have been made sensitively and sounds have been chosen to carefully match those from the appropriate era. a perfect track for blissful summer evenings (yeah whatever!).

this october, the compilation disco sympathy will be released on versatile. it’s author is vidal benjamin, an outstanding dj / digger, considered by his pals as one of the most brilliant in his category. and that says a lot! here he makes us rediscover the sound that was so characteristic of a certain early eighties french scene: wacky, happy, dancing and at times even poetic. one begins to travel through an era during which the french producers were not afraid to tackle disco, american boogie, british and german synth wave, to present us their version: french, poppy and above all... fun!as a prelude, before releasing the compilation, versatile will come with limited 33 rpm and 45 rpm maxis, on which every track has undergone an editing treatment by mysterious french producers: jean-marc misère (last sighted somewhere near london), dj ringardos (who, since his last versatile release in 2008, chose roman exile), alt (already spotted on the edits du golem and on the us label black disco), and of course vidal benjamin himself, accompanied by gilbert cohen - the boss. on the 45 rpm you ll find no-one less than jeff lasson, of the get a room! duo, who came through with flying colors. and as a bonus beat: misère on the b-side.

one per customer! edwards 2nd album -into a better future- accompanies you for hours, makes you forget that daily grind. it is serious encouragement of movement, telling you to get away from the thick mess and find your way onto a proper highway. you will pass machines along the side of the road, engaged in a process of construction while your hands feel clean. and once in a while you ll hear the sound of sunrise and sunset racing each other in a tight rhythm.
