ahead of the deliriously deep and rhythmically complex debut album >face to face (out in november on serialism), phillippe quenum aka quenum first displays his rich, dynamic and sometimes soulfully melancholic sound across a teaser ep featuring two album tracks plus a tough yet shimmering remix from the ever classy and timeless, cassy. lead track >face to face< pulses with raw, rumbling bass as hard claps accent an unfettered groove scattered with delicate sonic nuances and a powerful vocal sample. from peak time to sunrise, >5 am< is an ethereal electronic voyage, with softly woven beats, rippling synths and melodic keys.

acid diaper as he was descriped by the prspct crew earlier this year: there is quite some mystery surrounding this new producer. even us at prspct hq have no idea who he is and where he is from. he has chosen to keep his identity secret to the world. kind of like batman but instead of fighting bad people this vigilantes goal is to terrorize the world with pure audio violence. 4/4, acid, gabber dnb designed to torture the average mainstream music listener. however, us deranged individuals at prspct hq fucking love it and can assure you. his tunes rock out hard!

simian mobile disco are back with the second in a series of collaborations, following on from sacrifice, their joint effort with bicep. this time theyve joined forces with cosmin trg fresh from his highly acclaimed album gordian on 50 weapons. the fruits of this hard graft in the electronic kitchen of smds studio (to push the food metaphor to its limits) kick off with surstro¨mming. this northern swedish delicacy of tinned, fermented sour herring has the dubious claim to fame of being the most putrid smelling food substance in the world. the burbling, queasy synth tones reflect the effects of this scent on all but the true connoisseurs

second part of this two episode series on subnet records. following the same flavour as before... dark textures and mental synth lines driven together by hard drum patterns and groovy percussion. these two ep reflect the creepy and insane behaviour caused by experiments in the field of invisibility applied in the human being. all the tracks were recorded live! just using analog sequencers, mpc, analog mixer and synths. directly to a recording device. in the same way as you could record a live set, to keep all the vibe as fresh as possible. 220 copies limited vinyl release.

our favourite swedish house duo is back…more dirty than ever! the follow-up to the previous eps moody & trapped is nothing short of brilliant. waisted with its plucked strings is classic deep house held together by a bumpy groove, soulful vocals & slick keyboard but still maintaining the formula that defines dirtytwo and their finest work to date. talking 2 u is where dirtytwo gets deep down and gritty. chunky house chords, a meaty bassline, cut-up voice samples in full basement effect. flip over for the hard on edit of talking 2 u which goes one step further adding some acid lines and a raw basement feeling. a dub for those who seek a more raw and heavier tool. local talk is talking to you!

you dont meet many people that smile as much behind the decks as tom hades, the ever-jovial belgian producer and dj. a man who truly loves his chosen profession, he has been steadily climbing up the international ranks of the techno cognoscenti for many years now. this is the result of his dedication and hard work, playing to many thousands of people worldwide every weekend, and a great discography, with releases on the worlds biggest labels.

after time spent whipping up singles for moodmusic and my best friend amongst others, maurice aymard makes the leap to the long-player with a selection of jams that reflect his propensity for live instrumentation and thoroughly musical constructs within the disco-inflected realms of house music. as if metro area were played out by hand, tracks such as home groove hard on plush live bass lines, poignant rhodes chords and romantic lead synths. gui boratto turns up to chip in to colours & drops with its more prominent techy backbone, but that s offset by the non-dancefloor roll of 1994 . it s a diverse album that provides the perfect platform for a skilled craftsman to explore, er, his craft.

the sixth volume in our luv n haight edit series featuring 2 hard-hitting tracks from turner brothers is a throwback to the classic edits sound courtesy of sun sound records owner, edit master and renowned record collector paolo scotti. with several recent edits under his belt including classics by touch of class, joe thomas, and ultrafunk as well as a compilation of rare disco and soul from his sun sound records label imprint based in italy, the time was right to tap him as the next producer for our ongoing series of edits from the luv n haight catalog.

mike gill who has already featured on roots for bloom teams up with taymor zadeh to bring us the coppin a feel ep featuring a john dimas remix. the a side *coppin a feel* brings us hard hitting groove with a hypnotic vocal line carrying the track. loose percussion and bold tom drums really cement this to work on any dance floor. the b side cut *the message* is a more rolling groove with a strong rhodes line that features later on really making the track evolve. john dimas takes *the message* and takes the atmosphere up a notch, with slick cut up vocals. this one will work in the early hours.

we are pleased to welcome back the extremely talented need for mirrors duo back to the dispatch camp. here they strike completely on the money with the hard hitting funk-led *sling blade* and backing up the a side we have a heavy slice of bristol themed flavour for 2013 with *grapefruit*. both tracks present a clear nod to the old school and inspirational late 90s sounds we always loved (but never left!). need for mirrors prove again with this release that they are quite simply on a roll both as individual artists that make up the nfm duo and in their own individual right, definitely ones to watch for the rest of 2013 and beyond.

kito jempere will be a new name to many with only a handful of productions and remixes under his belt but that’s the way we like to do it here and were proud to play a small part in helping introduce his production prowess to a wider audience. the st. petersburg native came to our attention following an invite for jimpster to play at one of his legendary outdoor summer parties in his home town. a friendship was born and when the brilliant demos arrived in the mail, it wasnt a hard decision to agree to release them

on uncanny valley s catalogue number 18 we finally welcome back credit 00 who is a man in charge of a decent collection of those dusty machines we all love. after the ice cold the living room life ep from 2012, his brand new record ice cream is easy to fall in love with. packed with tunes to suit various moods in life, it will be a faithful companion in dark basements or lonesome hours. ice cream starts deliciously with its sleazy sample choice. with the distinctive drum work it builds up to a true chicago-inspired dance floor banger. round n round hits hard with a harsh kick and cowbell action before it shows off slightly melancholic lead synths and a subtle but effective bass line and puts the emphasis on the fact that things go round and round. life s a dizzy affair. east of nowhere with that bass line-sound is credit 00 to the core. and with spooky synths he puts you to an east of nowhere-place where you will lose yourself in manic trance-like dancing. the record ends with red wine , a slightly different electronic love song sung by credit 00. the cover artwork was created by alexander dorn.

cult melbourne band primitive calculators cut a single in 1979 before splitting in the true punk fashion. a posthumous eponymous live album was released in 1981 (also reissued this spring on desire) and that was it. those two tracks are as fresh now as they were more than 30 years ago: in a style not dissimilar to the screamers or cabaret voltaire (circa nag nag nag), primitive calculators used raw monophonic synth lines with scratchy guitars and screaming vocals but the songs were standing on their own (as the unplugged version of do that dance that appears on the primitive calculators and friends 1979-82 could testify. the original 7 inch is now incredibly rare and hard to find and this reissue is its exact replica. first pressing limited to 500 copies.

alba (formerly albatross), have combined an immaculate eye for detail and warmth with their brand new release, knokke / law. the sydney duo have been hard at work perfecting their live show and supporting the likes of four tet, mount kimbie and gold panda for the past year so everyones appetite is whet for more tunes! a-side knokke comes out strong with the dogged drive of 909 hats and kick, over deep ominous noise and re-pitched vocals.

everybody likes doumen, but also everybody says >oh no ... i love doumen, but its hard to play their records in my dj sets or to have a party with them...<
so this is why we founded van doumen. it is a rework sublabel, completely based on original doumen material, following the idea of tracks that work in dj sets, but still have the doumen spirit. the first record was done by scherbe (uncanny valley, big bait, ..), philipp matalla (kann records, internasjonal spesial, ..), webermichelson (holger) and potensia (modern soul, ..). the first two tracks are superb club smashers, followed by an angry caricature monster of techno and finally potensia walks you home in the most intimate and beautiful way possible. to be honest, we say this record as a first step of van doumen is a classic already.

double 12 inch vinyl in gatefold sleeve, includes code for download of the full album in both mp3 and flac format.

phil weeks >crate diggin< project has been bubbling under for some time while the french dj/producer carefully selected 30 of the tracks which have been most influential to him over the past 15-20 years. indeed many of the tracks - from artists including dj rasoul, dj sneak, brett johnson, inland knights, rick wade, mood ii swing and lawnchair generals - still feature as heavily in phils dj sets today as they did when originally released. released over three unmixed digital volumes and three vinyl samplers, crate diggin is a window into the musical dna of one of the most respected and prolific underground house artists of this century. as well as being a highly personal project to phil, it offers a rare chance to finally pick up hard-to-find and sought after gems that were only previously released on vinyl.

*turn me on* by jay w. mcgee is the third release in a series of sought after boogie, disco and modern soul re-issues on légère recordings. the original 12inch vinyl single appeared on the tiny canadian indie label love productions in 1980 and is immensely hard to find these days. *turn me on* is an unusual production for its time, grooving along unbelievably deep in a spartanic arrangement, and fuelled by vocals which are not too far away from sylvesters iconic style of mixing soul, disco, funk and jazz.

derrick may: >these guys are from tel aviv but they have such an appreciation of the music of detroit - theyre working hard to do some serious stuff!<
