epiphany is damian schwartzs new moniker, created to give home to his most twisted and raw stuff. the first release in this new ahd imprint is all about raw, dirty and spiritual sounds. created and mixed on the analog domain and recorded to 1/4 inch tape, a ghost of myself could be considered as a mix of schwartzs biggest influences, from 90s ny house to detroit techno and chicago sounds, all processed through damians own style, resulting on a dope release based around strong rhythms, mystic sounds and rough yet fine progressions

following a heavily supported launch in july, disco bloodbath recordings delivers its second single this august in hand plants >gone ghost<, backed with a remix from jamie blanco. comprising one half disco bloodbath (ben pistor) and one half maxxi soundsystem (sam watts), hand plant is about old and new synths, samples, berlin, aircraft, what happens in the early hours, ecstasy pads that make you rush ...

i light another cigarette in the tittery the sparrow has landed. we have returned from our excursion to the modern and would like to share what we brought with you: some showtunes and a twelve tone row. the show, as it turns out to be, is our very own. we started out writing new material to perform on stage, after we had found out it was great fun to refrain our instrumentation to vocals, piano and bad acting. originally very attracted to the- as our label told us- very clandestine idea of releasing three 12inches with very limited playability for djs, we agreed not to ruin our dial friends and work on an album instead.

medical records is ecstatic to present the reissue of the essential >novels for the moons< by axxess. originally released in 1983, axxess is the brainchild of french multimedia artist patrick mimran. mr. mimran was co-director of lamborghini motors (along with his brother) at the time and fittingly released the album on the imprint lamborghini records. heavily influenced by german electronic pioneers klaus schulze, tangerine dream, and kraftwerk, mr. mimran commissioned the german engineer andreas bahrdt to build a custom complex synthesizer which eventually materialized into a 16 voice analog synthesizer of genius proportions.

knowing looks kicked off 2011 for wncl recordings with with his much loved, hard stepping abandoned skip, backed with the acclaimed symphonic masterpiece that was last kiss at the plains hotel. jason hopfner is back again to neatly tie up a busy year at wncl hq, unveilling the classically constructed epic listen to my 45 - described by ben ufo as >lovely. gorgeous. slick. buff etc< … and who are we to disagree. just do what it says on the tin, then flip over for ghost baby - yet another fine example from hopfners rich and varied production cannon, melding super cool minimalism with party breaks. merry christmas from the cassette library!

after his critically acclaimed album on ghost sounds, a.p. now delivers this beautiful limited edition heavyweight picture disc release, containing his...

lcd soundsystem bring >drunk girls< to a rock party, holy ghost! take them to the electro floor.

in its original form, holy ghost!s debut album cut >hold my breath< is, pure and simple, great dancefloor electronic pop, in the hands of shadowy duo tiger & woods, the song has been totally reshaped and refracted through 80s r&b radio. they have slowed the pace and inserted synth-funk hot flashes that recall prince – and, no kidding, the time, and jimmy jam & terry lewis – to create a mood that fits comfortably (and pleasurably) within their future boogie m.o. cosmic kids ron poznansky and dan terndrup have taken the track in a more tensely dramatic direction. it might be the vaguely darkened synthline upon which much of that track sits that lends itself to its more intense feel here, and gives it such a pleasant nocturnal feel. finally, theres falty dls re-envisioning, which goes down awfully smooth for a track so full of the big, thick, bumping bass beats. it’s an aural pleasure to find yourself dreamily lost in the brooklyn, new york producer/djs halls of reverberating sound.

midnight magics >drop me a line< backed up with remixes by steffi, mano le tough and holy ghost. permanent vacation delivers once again a package of pure house-music-magic.

its only natural that martyn has risen above the cliches and pitfalls of the vacuous dj world. over his 15 years djing, 6 years producing, and 4 years a&ring his 3024 imprint, the holland-born / washington dc-based artist has forged his own path every step of the way. his multi-leveled career has kept balance with a focus on art, and his every sacrifice is preserved in an endless dedication to music. as a continual record buyer and beat seeker, martyn is a beacon of hope through leagues of passion-less djs and producers, the ghost people: plastic, hollow shells that focus only on the in-the-now grooves or keeping in line with trends.
double 12 inch white vinyl in gatefold cover, including code for free digital download of the full album.

vinyl doublepack containing the best material from two albums that were recorded back in 2004, all revised and remastered in 2010. very experimental, based in (dark) ambience with rhythmic patterns oriented among idm, electro and triphop. one album was inspired by asian horror movies, and the other was highly inspired by david lynch films >lost highway< and >mulholland drive<. spooky great release... and again bonus cds included!

wonderland ghost is, not only due to its title, a gift for all friends of electronic dance music. the three tracks: >for you<, >the ghost<, and >what im standing for feat. toxic pearl< all exude the pleasure of working with the original beats and rhythms that rattle through baders music. these are elegantly arranged sound montages that relentlessly push into the ears of an enraptured dance floor, taking surprising twists and turns on their way to a land of pure musical fun

there are certain songs that are so very good, the only singular word that accurately describes them is satisfying. >wait & see< is one of those: an aural pleasure that scratches an itch and hits the spot so precisely, it almost feels like self-denial not to listen on repeat. on holy ghost!s latest ep, the absurdly catchy single from their self-titled 2011 debut gets a makeover from three of dance musics titans: cfcf, kris menace and richard x. and while this batch of remixes finds the artists behind each track steering in new directions, each finds a way to capitalize on the irresistible danceability of the original.

another red hot and innovative release from our favourite ny label! ghost note follow up their stunning debut with another double header of uncategorizable, but mindblowing cosmic dance music.

glaswegian producer, label owner and globe trotting dj graeme clark, aka the revenge, takes on holy ghost!s >say my name< – a song from the duos ep static on the wire that, in its original incarnation, is a lovely, smooth slice of electronic pop. the revenge re-models the single three times over, into a trio of distinct remixes all bearing his unmistakable signature. first up on the vinyl 12inch is the revenge remix, which starts out like a hollowed-out, hall-of-echoes version of its predecessor and then grows – bit by bit and synth by syth – into a gorgeous swirl. on the revenge instrumental, clark ups the disco ante, removing the vocal melody and replacing it with elements equally as compelling: a classic beat, synthesized strings, double handclaps, and an essential electric bassline

anfang des jahres hat kasper bjørke ein großartiges electro-pop-album auf hfn veröffentlicht. als kasper bjørke & his friendly ghost präsentiert der mann aus kopenhagen indes einen sound, der seine wurzeln in techno, minimal und house hat. mit dem >go away song< feiert er einen starken einstand auf der black label-serie von compost. remixe kommen von wareika (eskimo, perlon) und holtoug.

the first release will be with the new kid in town: ghost mutt. this young producer from brighton (uk) is linked as resident artist to the people of donky pitch with other residents like boss kite and slugabed. his sound can be, if we try to genre-ize it, defined as a mash-up of hiphop beats mixed with dubstep, covered with glitches, funky tweaks, purple flares and dirty basses. he has been sharing line-ups with tokimonsta, slugabed, blue daisy, boss kite, coco bryce and bass clef.

hi-quality minimal dub/ambient techno by skyscaper & ekelon. comes on the likeable ghost sounds label (that always seem to be pressing less as what the demand is unfortunately... hence the zero stock on back catalogue). but lush long tracks with a foggy ambient piece on side a, and a more bright rhythmic dubby piece on the flip with beautiful strings and lush melodies. sweeet!

who is noa siano: a face in the crowd, or a ghost in the shadows? we dont know ourselves, but this intriguing newcomer has an affinity for deep soulful house that has the spirit of what house music is all about leaking from every orifice.

becoming real is a young producer based in the suburbs of nowhere, channeling his very own post-apocalyptic vision of london. a haunted and haunting spectre, his self-termed ghost-step soundscapes are as much influenced by a conceptual future dystopia as they are by luminaries zomby & mount eerie.

going home late one foggy night in london, i turn the corner to see my bus waiting at the bus stop, lights on, doors open, completely empty. i get on the bus and wait, a few minutes later the driver gets on, he was hiding behind a tree. now i always call it the ghostbus. stopping and starting, traveling along are the landscapes of sound recordings, perfectly balanced between synthetic and abstract layers of sounds. ghostbus invites you to travel along an electronic road of pulses and distortion, a travel between vintage and modern atmospheres, shifting into automatic vintage synthesis gears, a journey into the dark and cold nights of london. samp gives this music his trademark ambience in confined spaces sound, helped along by nax_acid both in collaboration and with his own edit version

180g vinyl. complete with remixes from the legendary king of cosmic, daniele baldelli and an abstract gem from one of the renowned three chairs (alongside moodymann and theo parrish) marcellus pittman, this is a release for real music connoisseurs.

again some excellent dusty & dreamy ambient tracks on this ghost sounds / creative space records collaboration. laser etched artwork, purple marbled 180 gram vinyl.

you can see it on the news: techno is back, but for those who never left, techno is not a word that comes and goes, techno are forward thinking sounds that you cannot do in one minute with some libraries and cheap software.this brand new release from our factory shows exactly how techno should be done properly, in the interpretation of kike pravda, eric krakeroy and label owner oscar mulero as a remixer.main track, >fear is the enemy< has a direct approach, clean and driving drum programming grows and grows helped by shuffled 909 hats, leaving room for a razor sharp synth line that opens and closes filter in the most dynamic way you can imagine. just a few elements put together wise. oscar reinvents the original in a very similar way, but slowing the vibe a bit, adding more percussive details and elonging the structure, again the sound is clear , punchy and hard, as you like it.closing release, >jaque a la reina< its a 21st century acid track, modern, sharp in sound and agressive in low end, concrete claps, metal hatz and driving synths makes this one the perfect compliment for this stunning release.

raw synth line & chords driven techno/house stuff by the mysterious mod.civil project (ornaments). be fast - limited edition!

just in case someone might have forgotten: stil vor talent is based in berlin. and this ep by sascha braemer, one part of heinrich & hirtenfellner, proves just that. braemer, whos just been at the top of everybodys dj charts with his funk-laden minimal soul piece >mamba drums< on kindisch records, has donated three tracks to oliver koletzkis imprint that mirror what this city is best know for: funky minimal grooves. first up there is >ghost track< a typical dry minimal loop with a rhythmically in touch vocal sample that is then juxtaposed by a simply astonishing piece of melody. goose bumps and groove humps on the floor - guaranteed! on the flip: >girl<. here braemer has created a dubby piece of tech house that floats towards a soulful vocal and some beautiful strings. this is one for the early morning, or in berlin, the late afternoon, those times when everything seems in perfect harmony with each other. last up is >guitar man<, yet another very sample-based stripped down loop with one riff of an echoed guitar being the protagonist. when that riff is fully played out, we all know its summer. but it wouldnt be berlin if there werent some dark wobbly basslines seemingly destroying this but in fact creating the perfect combination of soft and hard, of light and dark. on top of this the vocal sample >i wont leave< perfectly encapsulates the vibe of the praised berlin afterhour. stil vor talent is back at home with this ep.
