a-side discomix, one of the rarest and best wackie s 12inches, b-side previously unreleased wicked 70s roots! killer vintage bullwackies! the happy love song was originally released on a tribesman 12inch, one of the least known but most killer wackies 12inches of its day. a propulsive rhythm is behind the group licking back the tune cut by the iq s in jamaica a couple years earlier. the b-side was retrieved from tape, an unknown vocalist extolling the virtues of the roots rock reggae coming from wackie s studio in the turbulent new york city of the 1970s. a must have for all wackie s diehards, another level of the pyramid unearthed, and more to come!

womans heiß ersehntes debütablum happy freedom ist nun über asmara records erhältlich. einfache antworten sind gefragt. woman stellen lieber fragen. zum beispiel diese hier: where you gonna go when the planet erupts? heißt es im ersten vers von dust, dem ersten song auf happy freedom, dem ersten album des kölner trios. seit fünf jahren wird bereits über diese band gemunkelt, wer sie von anfang an kennt, tauscht seine frühen eindrücke wie geheimwissen aus. die geschichte begann 2012 in der kellerbar im belgischen viertel von köln. drei befreundete musiker aus der stadt hatten noch nicht einmal einen namen, aber das erste set stand. es war laut und chaotisch, halb einstürzende neubauten, halb suicide. wer damals dabei war, rieb sich die augen: okay, das ding steckte konzeptionell noch in den kinderschuhen, aber die intensität und experimentierfreude der musik nahm alle ein.

when it was released in the summer of 2016, eli escobars happiness blew people away with its sophisticated house/disco hybrid sound and striking urban landscape. critics were falling over themselves to hyperbolise over elis exquisite synth stabs while the coveted double lp continues to sell through to this day. the quintessential new york dj, eli’s happiness stomped through the streets of his city, stopping off along the way at the jumping brooklyn basement clubs and dusty record shops that he frequents. some months later, developing on those themes seemed like the most natural thing to do, hands flew up across the board for remixing duties and assembling the extended classic family to contribute was an easy, nay joyful, task. happy again was born, giving the album a fresh new suit of clothes. re-works from kon, soulphiction and yam who? alongside bonus versions of tracks from the original album makes this the ultimate vinyl bumper pack

how do you follow up a stone-cold afro funk classic like village boogie? simple. gather together some of the hottest players in nigeria, take them down to the phonodisk studios in ijebu igbo and let them loose on a bunch dancefloor fillers you spent the last four years ‘road testing’ in kaduna. and don’t forget to get lady franka and mariam pledge in on backing vocals. those girls know how to fire up a party. it helps, of course, if you’re steve ‘dudu’ black. steve had a god-given knack for writing combustible dance tunes and the contacts in the industry to get the likes of willy nfor, willy roy and felix lebarty to make them explode. from the opening track, ‘osasuima’, the heat never stops. on ‘no stopping me now’ and ‘ololufe/ stay the night’, it’s almost too hot to handle. polished in a studio in london while musical youth recorded pass the dutchie in the next room, happy birthday to u is the gift that keeps on giving – an irresistible blend of highlife, afro beat and afro funk that is guaranteed to start a party on any dance floor.

house is oks seventh instalment goes kraut with a three tracker from chris beiswenger formally known as tcb (the citizens band). since the split up of arto mwambe, chris has been slowly building a sound of his own. instead of sticking to standard templates he has gone deep into modular synthesis and his music can be described as futuristic, kindred and cerebral. labels such as live at robert johnson, tasteful nudes and story already recognised tcbs unique twist and rather happy songs is just another proof of his unquestionable quality. these three mid-tempo techno ballads will get your mind moving and spirit floating while your body will fall in instant trance dancing to these highly hypnotising pieces. a remix from roman flu?gel on top makes the ep a 100% frankfurt affair and when it comes to house and techno, we frankfurters take our green sauce serious, dont we? cheers, hiok team

defected sub-label tenth circle welcomes brighton based nathan pope aka antenna happy to deliver their first release of 2015. following his rapturously received debut pinto from last year, antenna happy draws on decades of musical experience to produce a stunning double-a side. title track dream 2c sits somewhere between house and techno, a slow-burning, emotionally charged cut in which glimmering arpeggiated melodies intertwine to create a unique and beautiful cut. wild stabs is tougher, an acid-flecked progressive stomper that slowly builds into a maelstrom of seething chords and stabs

happy skulls first release of 2015 comes from uk based artist creta kano, who first impressed with his 2013 debut on rotterdam’s pinkman records. he showcases his highly melodious and deeply textured sound across three tracks for the bristol imprint. *skyway motel* is an emotive, detroit inspired amalgamation of warm chords and rolling drum machine rhythms. the tracks romantic qualities are emphasised on *skyway 81*, a screwed, pitched-down version that re-casts the original as a serotonin fuelled slow jam. *false water* completes the package. a sprawling trip in to broken techno territory, reminiscent of 90s era rephlex.

a twenty year break away from making music is almost unheard of especially within electronic music circles, but that is where antenna happy finds himself with pinto. clocking in at 9.09 pinto draws from psychedelia and techno set straight for the sun. this kaleidoscopic sonic excursion has all the makings of a cult classic, and heads up the debut 12- release on newly founded imprint reinhardt records. taking lead on the b-side an entirely different affair in the shape of fallen. this is benchmark electronic music, as arpeggiators take flight mirrored against hypnotic acid bass, for a journey into the outer house territories. closing the ep, spark holds the reigns. conceived within the same stretch as pinto, however it wasn t until some months later that spark took on its full form. emotive modular synths lay the groundwork, connecting the dots between low-slung techno and house music, culminating in a track that sits in neither genre camp. spark will appear on the digital release only. the ep title track takes its name and inspiration from paintings by antenna happy s three-year-old daughter, whose birth inspired him to return to making music. close-ups of these paintings can be seen in the artwork for the release.

having previously impressed with vivid blends of cosmic r&b, skewed space-pop, glistening post-ambient soundscapes and mangled, synth-laden grime, rising star throwing shade (aka producer nabihan iqbal) demonstrates her dancefloor side with a killer 12- on happy skull. -chancer- and -blanx- both retain iqbal s uniquely intergalactic aesthetic,whilst flitting between jacking, chicago-influenced house rhythms and jazzy, off-kilter dancefloor grooves. synths sparkle, while vocal snippets drift in and out of the mix. the 12- is completed by a riotous, predictably heavyweight remix from kowton, whose guttural techno grooves are peppered with cut-up samples of iqbal s distinctive, dreamy vocals.
