the supremely talent william burnett makes a belated return to emotional response, and this time he s got brooklyn-based studio pal john beall in tow. those who enjoyed the duo s release on the l.i.e.s. white label series should lap up shimmer. it hits hard from the off, with -snaker charmer- delivering a velvet-clad punch to the guts. it s techno right from the top drawer, with darting electronics and drawn out pads riding a thunderous groove. the title track is impressive, too, with surging electronics and throbbing synths riding a techno-tempo groove crafted out of an old hardcore breakbeat. there s some more considered fare on offer, too, with the shimmering ambience of -hold me take me leave me- completing a superb package.

bok & trago are back with another 12- of deeply textured, hypnotic house music. this time taking a melodic approach on the a-side main mix of -need this-, the london-amsterdam duo borrow and flips motifs from a classic. -need this (radio mix)- is a piece of slow-burning deep-tech, helicopter blade arps hovering over epic fm bassline and churning percussive guts. a well-deserved melodic reveal at 4 minutes gives way to plenty of weightless beats to keep djs busy on the loop button - blending perfection ensured. on the flip, the 12- mix strips out the melodies and turns up the percussive heat. the results are a sweltering dub strictly for the dancers

>> oh it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. the trombones crunched redgold under my bed, and behind my gulliver the trumpets three-wise silverflamed, and there by the door the timps rolling through my guts and out again crunched like candy thunder. oh, it was wonder of wonders. and then, a bird of like rarest spun heavenmetal, or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now, came the violin solo above all the other strings, and those strings were like a cage of silk round my bed. then flute and oboe bored, like worms of like platinum, into the thick thick toffee gold and silver. i was in such bliss, my brothers.<

oberman knocks original version (white) is a laid-back affair housed within a glassy place of worship, echoing with monastic vocals, strings, wind instruments and field recordings, which are offset by synthetic beats, funk bass and entwined sleazy vocals.
in contrast autechres remix (black), panning out at just over 17 minutes long, is everything that you wouldd expect from the duo – a frantic, fractured and detailed to within an inch of its life piece, that has no need to build, but instead unravels and mutates into what is an unmistakable autechre crescendo.
whilst both versions play out at opposite ends of the tempo spectrum, what connects them is that they are both emotional machine music with guts and vigour.

hitsafe are a duo of established producers operating under an enigmatic moniker. nothing new, you might say, and that is true. the music is so outstanding and unusual though, that in this case this approach really does make sense. serious jaw-work is funk in its purest form. and we mean real funk! wonder how many djs will have the guts and abilities to play this one out…to round this release up, we asked lopazz and casio casino for a remix and these guys came up with two! both are so good, we couldnt make a choice. so here we go with both of them on this release. the jack remix on a2 is a functional tech housy Überhit, suitable for all peaktime house floors, the jane remix on the b-side is a moodymanesque version with a strong ludicruous tendency, that has all necessary qualities to become a timeless epic. massive!

it is a double vinyl set of empty locked grooves that contains nothing but its very own surface noise - and physical structure. it is a sculptural revision of stefan goldmanns earlier locked groove-based double vinyl the grand hemiola, but it also serves as a genuine hauntological vinyl surface noise tool kit, out on its own. pulling a knife or other tool to its grooves allows for cutting your literally uniquely own beats directly into the record.

samoyed kicks off vases 2013 with two undeniably brave tracks and a change in direction for the hyped producer. breaking into new territory for the u.k artist he kicks off with sloe eyes, an percussive builder of a track with rave stabs and a brilliant catchy vocal hook. utilizing his brilliant use of the ethereal he keeps the club edge on this track emotional and heartfelt. the b-side guts starts with a hypnotizing vocal loop that slowly transcends into almost autechre territory but with an ear for african house on the drums. dj support comes from hudson mohawke, pearson sound, krystal klear and benji b. samoyed starts 2013 with a bang

a brilliant b-side by austrian, donna summer and, produced by the ingenious frank farian, this is an emotional german disco hit that hits you in the guts. i had total respect for gilla when i was a kid , says dj hell.

quarks remixed by turner, gonzales, schneider tm, submission and jamie hodge. released in 2000 on gudrun guts monika enterprise imprint.
turner turns the queens heart - the >königin< is dancing now.
gonzales wanted all and more, and he got it: >alles und mehr< flying straight and soft through the clouds.
schneider tm drops the guitars - >fallen< - sounds like an ejection seat.
submission bought a new dub dress and covered time (>zeit-hin<).
and at last but not least: jamie hodge is secretly catching us in the dark (>dunkeln<).
these remixes are beautiful and shy. just like roe deer. they give every track a new brightness and let them sparkle again. come on now - dance and dream away in quarksland.

a new beginning is always an euphoric and scary step towards the unknown. the euphoria comes right after the original idea, when first signs of feasibility are shown. then comes reality. i think that nobody is able to eradicate reality (or what a common society sees of it) out of his mind, though art allows us to escape temporally this fiction. its not an easy task to achieve and artists hold in their hands, intellects, souls and guts a great responsibility. terpsichór? will be a support that transfers this responsibility to others: the artists, the public, the crowd, the souls, the dancefloor

played: steve bug, djulz, a. schneider, jay haze, dan curtin – huge hit ! moon harbour has good news for you: a new artist joining our family – welcome samim! after big success with his projects >samim & michal< and >fuckpony< (together with jay haze) he debuts on moon harbour with his 3-track-ep. the bass line of -eco- (b1) paces through deep frequencies as samim throws in sharpedged snares, wistful dub-synths and an elusive vocalsample: this track is so catchy that it deserves the rare honour of a long b-side – its strong vibe just would have swallowed up any other tune accompanying it. skks (a1) will get you from a different point of view: forget about dub and minimalism, this one is a rhythmical display of fireworks. samim goes in for the full, tictac go the claps and vocal-samples jeer and jiggle everywhere. this track got guts, man!..

to find lawkyz, follow the beat. it is here, in this vital part, this lighthouse which guides the route of the other instruments, which it prints in depth the low notes of his four strings. riveted on the drums. linking with it a rhythmic pact, ensuring the propulsion of the groove on stage with erik truffaz or guts, on records with uht ¡, anna kova, or versus, his hip hop project with full live band. when he puts his fetish instrument, when he lets cool his amp, then wakes up his evil twin: the waxidermist. one year after his last ep, the waxidermist comes back to tell his story.

having spent the last seven years delivering impressive singles on a variety of labels - most notably aus music, secretsundaze and hype_ltd - ewan smith has decided the time is right to unleash his debut album under the youandewan alias.

asagaya ist ein kŸnstler aus irgendeiner ecke dieser welt. sein partner in crime ist die franzšsische produzenten-legende guts (heavenly sweetness), der light of the dawn- produziert hat und aus dessen dunstkreis auch die featuregŠste mit lorine chia und leron thomas stammen. als multiinstrumentalist mit einer synthetischen, programmierten stimme ist asagaya und seine soundŠstehtik im hip hop verwurzelt, jedoch klingt sie zugleich wie in einer anderen sphŠre, alternativ und transversaler.
