a year and a half after black merlin (george thompson) opened the common thread series with the much praised new world fantasy / ice house release george sent over some adventurous bits for a follow up and we were immediately sold. george is a true artist in his own right. all of the black merlin tracks evoke different sentiments. this time around the feeling it bring up is very conflicted. both tracks have those dark aesthetics with elements of paranoia and both also share some apocalyptic elements. it is for this reason that this is the perfect follow up for ct01. instead of just releasing music on vinyl we (with the blessings of zoroaster) are looking to evoke spirits, cross boundaries and maintain quality. major cliches, but with an artist like black merlin on your books, cliches sometimes become truth.

lost soul enterprises offers the debut solo release by blacklauren. a shadowy figure in new yorks techno landscape and one half of the warehouse dj duo the long count, here he offers up a suite of four floor-ready cuts. rhythmically austere and hauntingly atmospheric, each track follows its own complex logic of interlocking parts, giving the illusion of being both static and in constant churning motion.

nebraska is someone who’s tracks we’ve been loving for a good few years now and finally managed to pin him down for a release here on delusions of grandeur. the uk producer is something of an enigma, and despite some amazing releases on rush hour still remains resolutely underground and seems to keep his releases to a minimum, focusing on keeping the quality high rather than flooding the market with average material. once again, he brings the real deal with three drum-heavy warehouse jams to nice-up the dancefloor. aw-right (mute version) sets the tone with a raw house groove that keeps things stripped to the bare minimum. a bouncing bassline and rattling percussion break help to define the track but it’s the dusty, dubby approach to the mix which really makes the track shine. next up we have warp and weft, a similar sounding track but by dropping the bpm’s nebraska has created a sublime low-slung, bumpy groove to really move to. flipping over we’re treated to the brilliant eighty eights which will have you nodding your head like the churchill’s dog before you can say ‘looped up piano and bass one bar groove repeated for over eight and a half minutes shouldn’t work should it?’

having spent three years tirelessly growing the la vie en rose label from strength to strength, championing avant-garde house music and helping launch the careers of fresh new talent, label boss terence:terry: now steps forward with a string of his own works. inspired by his blossoming collective and following his recent remix of marcos baiano on lvr015, * acid heroes* ep contains three original terry productions truly for the club.the title track enters in strong punchy form, concocting deep industrial vibes and sinister vocals that echo into the darkness, until, half way through, it takes a more upbeat turn, lifted by reverberating synth chords. * cliché* slaps a little harder with a pounding bass and clashing symbols, before warming up with female wails and woos. a short, sharp taste of chord jabs and the journey builds up to what seems like the climatic futuristic ending, before melting into softer territory and a much welcomed infectious kick, for that last lease of life. rounding off with the murky, splashing number * testing the water*, deep keys and the expert layering of techno effects equals a sublime underground house track, most certain to arouse the dancefloor. * acid heroes* is served as the perfect appetiser to get you salivating before * house couture* , the first compilation from terence:terry: on lvr, mixing producers past and present, as well as a handful of unreleased future-gems to come on the label.

this 10 inch contains 2 unreleased vinyl versions in extended mixes that can make your day. the merits of van bonns releases on telrae, trapez and on van bonn records you can find in his new release -unbound-. the attractiveness of repetition has made its way into this ep... and it was a good choice. we kick off with -king-, a track which is a cross breed of a stubborn beat and a dub techno feeling showcasing a melodic intermezzi that flies in and out with a mind of its own. more minimalistic than most of the tracks you know from him, it includes unexpected half baked sounds you would not expect from van bonn. on the other hand the epic 10 minute monster -distinct- is a real dub techno giant and a soundtrack at the same time... with beats that take you by the hand.

it has been a long time between drinks for german band bambi - and it is something of a triumphant return, too. last time we heard from them, back in 2000, they were a post minimal rock duo comprising of guitarist/vocalist robin van velzen and drummer hans christian fuss. a decade and a half of live improvisation and a multitude of collaborations later, they return as a balearic rock four-piece. the bands newest members, former mountaineer man frank mollena and sofia fuss, were asked to join following a particularly successful series of live collaborations and improvisational jams. through balearic post-rock territory, with van velzens weary, emotional vocals riding a wave of vibrant colours, backwards hazy, intoxicating and evocative, it sounds like a horizontal anthem in the making. one sided, hand numbered, limited to 500 copies.

(this is the first time he has ever been so involved in another artists work.)

and so lux rec continue to reach out for all those ephemeral, eery noises which are so dear to them. unlit corners on half emptied dance floors. give in to suffer, loss and sadness. embrace it. believe...
lux recs first record for 2015 is a dark and moody affair coming from momentform, a french musician that has no fear to plunge into obscurity, melancholy, a somber look into memories that are too painful to forget. yet, he transformed all those postcards from the past into listening and dance material. our last dance together. turn off the lights when leaving.
pressing on dark translucent, smikey marbled vinyl.

with the bizarre feeling ep laying the sound for the subsequent fist year of the label, it is right jamie returns with ep#2 to move things forward with another twisted take on his unique mutoid-protoid-machine-funk-groove. starting with mad obsession you would be forgiven for thinking you ll have bizarre feeling part 2, with warped vocals - taken from late night, half asleep scribbled notes - and space echo haze, but let the percussion work-out trip you up and the stars in and before you know it things start going leftfild and then deeper with the free party sound system bass line shuffl of time nearly time. what he is on (about), no one knows. it is on the flp however that things take a darker turn. beyond the confession booth, down sharp stairs and dripping ceiling to a red light lit room of latter day late night blues.
