fresh from her raw silk uncut wood lp for latency, laurel halo switches focus directly to the dance floor on this new collaborative ep with livity sound regular hodge. the culmination of a series of recording sessions in berlin, the pair have produced a record that burns with the energy and dynamics their respective dj sets are known for, rounding out the year for the label in style.

as a full moon hovers over an empire of cratered landscapes lightyears away, galaxy explorer hvl signals descend to earth with electronic cuts orbiting around turbulent electro and translunar techno. four more stories from the great void.

after a first ep of the year from stl, the solar phenomena label now welcomes romania’s romansoff. the raw tools label boss hails from bucharest and has also released his gritty, stripped back house and techno on creme organization and sportiv. here he offers four new tracks, with one remix from timedance man ploy completing the package.
halo epitomises romansoff’s style with its slow, heavy drums and sparse, scattered perc sounds. a lo-fi melody adds colour, while coach jacket ups the ante with busier claps and crashing hits laid over a turbulent, unsettled bassline. increasing the pressure further, graded grows manic with punchy drums, layers of fuzzy synths and bass and distant cries that are dark and unsettling. ploy flips this one into a prickly and atmospheric drum track that keeps you on edge.

2018 repress incoming!
in a pretty typical sabre fashion he has sent us a tune called >halo danger<, expectedly what we heard instantly was pure danger and another killer in the works … now here it is coming your way on the 4th of june 2012. insane production as ever, huge riff, huge snappy drums, huge low end. it is an instant dispatch fave for us! we say no more… on the flip we have sabres often studio production partner in crime halogenix bringing us something solo, completely creative, fresh and inspiring. his productions are quickly building a reputation and >laika< holds no exception!

nice price deal !!! rebirth of a legend. travelling through time and space future makes no mistake. halo varga’s unforgettable hymn can shake the dancefloors even after 17 years. this golden song was released by siesta music and the legendary hooj choons imprints, and now after more then a decade its landing on all inn records sorrounded by 6 incredible reinterpretations of janeret, coldfish, howl ensemble, pola and jaffa surfa. together with all these different shades and shapes this is truly one of the most remarkable gem of the label

raw minimal techno specialist mono junk is back with a selection of new material on his own dum records. having pioneered key techno sounds as far back as 1990, more than 20 years later the influential finnish artist is still on top of his game. up first is halo, nine minutes of edgy techno with a nervy lead synth snaking around in paranoid fashion. rolling drums set a direct groove in motion below and the whole thing will be brilliantly hypnotic on the dance floor. halo 2 is a hallucinogenic bit of ambient with celestial drones and icy synth prickles making for a tense interlude, then musta peili is all fucked up and scuzzy, study and disrupted. sounding like a slowed-down techno track heard though a freezing snow blizzard, it is masterfully textured. farewell closes out the ep with an intergalactic bit of glassy melodic techno that will have you up on your toes.

nice price deal !!! hard-charging techno by jason potratz and an insane remix by nhk rmx (pan, raster-noton).

sometimes you have just got to have a bigger bike ... eddie c steps up once again on the beloved red motorbike label, but this time we are taking a ride on a 12 inch wheeled model, rather than the usual dinky 7 inches! to be honest, when the grooves are this fat, the extra space is more than welcome. rusty halo is another expertly executed eddie c rewire, as a staple singers style gospel soul gem is re-imagined with a devilishly good acid line and some precision peaks and drops - just deadly! voyage voyage on the flip is a psychedelic soul stomper a la norman conners, extended, amended and taken on a tripped out ride by toronto s noodleman. another superb release, jump on board! ltd 2015 repress

spherical collections of stars form around black holes in situ, that is, locally to their cosmic neighbourhoods. it is said that future space colonization will rely on sourcing supplies in situ. construction in situ uses raw materials at the site: colossal sculptures such as naqsh-e rustam, the leshan giant buddha and mount rushmore were built in this fashion. wild, organic machine grooves, with a mind’s eye on naked treetops and an early sunset. melody breathes out from dubwise fx, percussion by turns sinewy and floating, sub blasts and stripped synth arrangements. keys on air. spacious, witty, melancholic, deadly.

limited to 200 copies. spanish electronic music sculptor imp comes through with his second release to date, and its on the titans halo label, an imprint reserved strictly for the moodiest of electronica experimentations. -rain over orion- would be the perfect companion to an 80 s manga flick, where distant melodic sequences flutter among watery atmospherics and meditative pads the remix jobs come from boris divider, who chucks in a half-time beat and a flurry of machine-like noises, and brain machine who delivers the techno makeover in fine style.

surface is proud to present this vinyl release. label boss halo teams up with chile s, francisco allendes best know for his contributions on heavy hitting label like desolat and cadenza. as a huge bonus we ve got the very hot italian duo, proudly people on for a remix.

it was very important for me to give a dub-ish colour to this ep and propose something different than what people already know from me.‘pressure feed’ is a tribute to all maurizio’s tracks which i never get bored listening or playing. regarding ‘water flood’, i wanted to produce something simple that stands far from the traditional 4/4 beat. i wanted to make it a break beat on the kick while bringing refined ambiance and atmospheric patches to it. finally, ‘cold atom’ is the result of a permanent rhythmic evolution that embodies the vision i have of an astral trip, both dub and intense.- yakine

laurel halo returns with behind the green door, a stripped back, rhythmic, and sonically absorbing ep. while re-injecting rhythm as the central focus, laurels compositional senses of elevated flow and ambient detail remain intact, harking back to earlier releases like hour logic on hippos in tanks, and the spring 12 inch under the king felix alias.

his huh! ep is tittilating yet terrifying, a collection of razor-sharp club tracks that bring the party as much as they terrorize it. title track huh! begins with a smattering of innocuous hi-hats and claves that quickly give way to a thick fog of giallo-style paranoia. voices grab your attention, leaving you to look over your shoulder before being overtaken by a wave of sinister, gleaming melodies riding twisty, mechanically precise breaks.
