van abbe is back with no comment presenting 2 originals, a monologue from guy tavares (bunker records) + an evigt mörker remix. what did you feel the first time you were stargazing? standing alone in a dark backyard with your neck bent and the light from a thousand distant suns glittering in your bright eyes. did the overwhelming sensation of your own triviality descend upon your young soul like a dementor from azkaban? or did an unprecedented yearning breach every fibre of your being, compelling you to break free from the shackles binding you to the very ground? if you are in the latter category, this music is constructed especially for you. its a spaceship built from wooden barrels and rusty metal crates, pinned together with a multitude of crooked nails. but it works. it really does. you just have to make your mind broad enough to fit your clumsy terrestrial body in the spacecraft. the booming engines and the melodic bleeps from the control panel will do the rest. soon enough you’ll find yourself surrounded by the very stars you used to gaze upon as a child.
modern forward thinking house music by panthera krause on his new ep for uncanny valley. the successor to his highly acclaimed umami ep is not only rich in giving the dancers material to freak out on the floor. beyond that, all my circuits part i is a perfect showcase for the leipzig based producer s wealth of variety. heppy is a piano driven anthem that will surely capture many hearts thanks to an irresistible dynamic. there s some acid in the veins of stomping ground, a track that you should show your rocker friends when they doubt that there is energy in house music. unraveled dreaming is as demanding with strong sample use as it is beautiful with a build-up for eternity in the second half. finally, le phoque is quite a playful affair with its whirring sounds and driving percussion work. tip!

repress without 7 inch! five guys jamming together, each throwing in funk-nuggets from a finely honed appreciation & a shared love of the good groove. this studio project was compiled from a free-wheeling desire to just team up and play together, see what happens... the holy trinity of rhodes, clav and live bass, all wrapped up in a heavyweight rhythm section has provided the backbone to over 50 years of ground-breaking and floor-shaking black american music. the max graef band project channels this energy with the tight efficiency of the headhunters tag-teaming the new power generation, oh yeah - anyone expecting elbow patch, 6th form funk can think again, this is mosquito’s tweeter territory folks. from raw, p-funkin jams to punk-funk workouts & freestyle jazz flavours, dog pays homage and wears its influences proudly, while bringing a fresh take on the foundation funk that informs this collective’s own celebrated sample-house revival.
a configuration of self is a hypothetical construct denoting a coherent pattern of feelings thoughts and preferred behavioural responses symbolised or pre-symbolised by the person as reflective of a dimension of existence within the self. >thorne and mearns, 2000< the rationale behind the series is based on each piece of music representing emotional response to the processes feelings and self- awareness of studying psychology and counselling and becoming more aware of the multiple defences behaviours and personality traits i have. each release will be themed around a particular part of my academic journey and include media to accompany the music.
