fred v & grafix bring a breath of fresh air with their long-awaited second album oxygen. the 15-track venture strips away any uniformity, opening up into dreamy, synthesized waves of drum & bass, elements of elegant electro-pop, down-tempo beats, unsuspecting instrumentation and everything in between

after the hip hop after all tour, guts confirms in an idea more than this in the back of his head to make an album where the proportions 80% samples and programming / live 20% would be reversed. ok! an album to push further his musical exploration, go to the electro-funk, afro-disco, space jazz. add choir here, the talkbox there, play a monstrous bassline, a fiery sax solo instruments or let slip only several minutes: guts did nothing forbidden, opened the doors of the studio, broke the unlocked windows and vents so that no breath or vibration is left out.

on limited edition compact disc. no., founded by atomtm & material object in 2014, celebrate their second birthday in style with no. ii, a collage, a readymade, an assemblage, a synthesis, in short: a spectrum of elements refracted through the prism of the labels output between the 1st of may 2015 to the 1st of may 2016. you might call such a spectrum a mix, and thats up to you. over the 79 minutes the mix traverses a wild landscape of material. a dose here from the lysergic adventures in the concrete jungle of g@ng5ta, a stroll there over the bubbly terrain of material object+ishqs invisble light, the air punctuated by the haunted soundscapes of former severed head: garry bradburys yakovlevian torque. slather on top of that a caustic beat from anamorph specimens and then undergrid it all with the morbidly obese frequencies of atomtms texturen series and you have yourself some kind of interdimensional feast. so, welcome to our second birthday party.

spätestens mit dem meisterwerk and they have escaped the weight of darkness- und seinem prämierten soundtrack für die tv-serie broadchurch wird olafur arnalds in einem atemzug mit jungen, angesagten, multitalentierten komponisten wie nils frahm oder jon hopkins genannt. diese verstehen es perfekt, experiment und abenteuer der elektronischen musik mit der sensibilität klassischer musik zu verbinden und wie hier auf der neuen late night tales mit brillantem post-dubstep (koreless, james blake) zu ergänzen. olafur arnalds steuert dazu mehrere exklusive tracks bei (u.a. seines techno-projekts kiasmos), sowie die obligatorische coverversion (destinys child say my name!). der ausklang erfolgt wie immer mit einer spoken word-perfomance, diesmal vom britischen broadchurch hauptdarsteller david tennant.

cd featuring the mpl sound studio album.

pomrad aka adriaan van de velde ist ein belgischer produzent. sein sound bewegt sich irgendwo zwischen 80er jahre synthesizer funk, analogem trap und 90er jahre hip hop. seine musikalischen fixpunkte reichen von george duke bis hin zu hudson mohawke. analoge wŠrme meets bassgewitter und das live eingespielt, in der liveversion als trio mit mehr als einem dutzend synths auf der bŸhne. knights ist sein erstes release auf jakarta records, welches das album zusammen mit on and on records (c2c, 20syl) aus frankreich veršffentlicht. auf knights kondensiert pomrad all seine einflŸsse in ein kohŠrentes werk, mit der hilfe einiger gŠste wie beispielsweise selah sue, und schafft dabei etwas besonders: zu klingen wie pomrad, einzigartig und originell.

max ravitz has made a name for himself with his hazed dance not dance productions over these last couple of years appearing on a handful of different labels under a handful of different monikers. here on the 15 track, -common purpose- cd we get ravitz in all of his different forms as he teams up with numerous artists from his local brooklyn scene and beyond, serving up unheard cuts from numerous recording sessions done over the last years. through the record we hear the producer s versatility from tripped out downtempo vibes, to mid-paced acid, to high bpm dust burners, as ravitz and co. explore almost all possible avenues while in the studio. collaborators include huerco s., jahiliyya fields, ngly, terekke, bookworms, cloudface, and josephine.

on limited edition compact disc. part two of atom tms minimalist, ambient magnum opus, airdrops you into a void of undulating sonic modulation with nothing but the dream of silent huskies for company. schmidt has always been a maestro of harnessing non-repetitive repetition and on texturen ii he takes that to a psychedelic extreme, constructing a smooth within the stereo field. almost imperceptible sheets of binary sleet superimpose themselves on flows of deep, glacial pulse-width gestures. the ensemble is minimal but ever-fluctuating, expansive but hyper-detailed. a frozen mirage. here, the vistas are endless, the peaks illusory, the troughs few and the symmetries pure. eat your rations, try to keep moving and dont go snow blind.

very limited stock release on atom tm + material objects no. label. by garry bradbury, ex member of the 80s band severed heads. no. return with a new addition to the abstract 300 series by one time member of the influential australian electronic project severed heads: garry bradbury. sydney based bradbury is known for his boundary bending audio collage and analogue synthesis outbursts and has a career spanning three decades and is still blazing well into the 21st century. here he presents his 5th solo album for no. yakovlevian torque might be the most diverse no. release to date combining audio sources such as traditional found sound tv samples to analogue and digital synthesis. always on the verge of being slightly humourous, silly or deadly serious, bradbury balances moods and emotions, making this album not just a journey into his own mind. yakovlevian torque is a 13 track work out worthy of your attention deficit disorder

dave clarke, britisches techno-urgestein der ersten stunde, trŠgt seine spannendsten remixes seiner jŸngsten, amsterdamer schaffensphase auf einem album zusammen. wie Ÿblich ist die vielfalt der original interpeten bemerkenswert und reicht von punk bis new beat und von aktuellen hip artists bis leider lŠngst aufgelšsten bands. dave clarke ist bekannt dafŸr, die original-intention der kŸnstler stets beizubehalten, obwohl er den tracks neue gewŠnder von techno bis electro, von aalglatt bis futuristisch und von dark bis heavy verpasst, was seine remixes fŸr fischerspooner oder depeche mode zu zeitlosen kult klassikern werden lie§. die soundpalette der kollektion charcoal eyes: a selection of remixes from amsterdam deckt diese gesamte stilistische bandbreite hervorragend ab.

as both a producer and the helmsman of the outis music label, dino sabatini has carved out a distinctive musical style that shows a great reverence for both ancient archetypes and future possibilities for change (see, for example, his mnemosyne co-release with edit select, in which each track is dedicated to a separate greek goddess). with one foot planted in a mysterious past and the other foot planted in a world yet to arrive, sabatiniÕs works are carefully realized emotional journeys that intertwine shimmers of optimism with undercurrents of poignancy or nostalgia.

much-celebrated kompakt staple the field returns to the spotlight with new album the follower, his fifth full-length offering after from here we go sublime (kompakt rsd 02 cd 57), yesterday and today (kompakt 193 cd 72), looping state of mind (kompakt 241 cd 94) and cupids head (kompakt 290 cd 110). swedish soundsmith axel willner is well-known for his mastery when it comes to the allusive layering of loops, but it was with his last album cupids head that a newly-found, somewhat pressing snappishness started to replace the soft-hued sonics of his ambient-infused techno, imbued with a darker mood and stronger footing than before. a carefully gauged balance of stoic motorik and gloomy drones was key here - just as it is for the follower which goes even further in blurring the lines between concrete experimentation, body music and precisely laid-out arrangement, leading to one of the most rhythmically and texturally engaging listening experiences in willners catalogue.

mikkel metal was the first artist on echocord, and the main reason why the label was started back then. after many many releases we are very happy and proud that he now returns with a full lenght album. more than 7 years after his last long-player album mikkel metal returns with a new album for echocord. bypassing dub-techno as the starting point, this is music clearly consistent with earlier output. we are presented with 10 tracks that all evolve with around a melancholic melodic framework. while there is clearly a nod to detroit and another to dub- techno, the overall impression is consistently and unmistakably the sound of mikkel metal. a hypnotic, very enjoyable and thorough return from the danish artist.

o long awaited debut album from mike connelly and his wife, tara, recording together as clay rendering. o additional production by dominick fernow, additional vocals by becka diamond o mastered by paul corley o a delicate yet uncompromising set of songs drifting somewhere between gothic, ambient, black metal and dream pop.

city beach club 10 mixed by ping

the last 12 months have been a boon for fans of luke vibert, with the veteran cornishman delivering a killer acid album for hypercolour, and a slick, melodious set of disco-inspired jams under his kerrier district alias. here he returns to regular home planet mu with another typically entertaining set inspired by classic british electronic music. utilising his battery of vintage music-making machines, vibert giddily doffs a cap to early 90s intelligent techno, rave-era hardcore, bleep, chicago acid and braindance, occasionally veering off track via easy listening inspired future jazz, wagon christ style hip-hop head-nodders (the title track, which doffs a cap to a forgotten, mid-90s remix he did for ninja tune) and squidgy, synth-propelled mutant electrofunk.

with the launch of his white material label in new york 2012, dj richard started releasing a line of the most stunning works by galcher lustwerk, young male, morgan louis and himself. alongside a collaboration with carsten jost for the lawrence -films and windows remixes- the dial records crew deeply fell in love with the works of dj richard and vice versa the request to release his debut album here caused enthusiastic encounter. after his contribution for dial s 15 years compilation and almost two years of production, it is here: dj richard - grind! a tribute to what contemporary club music and enthusiastic sound experiments should be about: exaltation and addiction. this is what dj richard s club sets feel like- an incredible sound seduction, another dimension- grind might be the essence of it all.

it is almost hard to believe and we are looking for that wormwhole that brought us here as we are already looking at the arrival of compilation number * o *. and we rather do not start thinking about the endless wordplays we could do with the * story of o*, however we have to admit that this special * o-edition* comes with an extra portion of deepness, soul and yes, even sex

welcome back to the movielike resonating sound world of the 23s. already in 2008 the mysterious one-man band proofed with the album ÒboliviaÓ that they are trying to do another kind of music Ð something that isnÕt entertainment, something that isnÕt show, something that goes gently straight to your soul. now the producer from nord-rhine-westphalia did it again and tuned in the longplayer ÒflamingoÓ. anew he delivers a special kind of cinematic journey music that grooves opposite to his other, more rhythm based hypnotic dance productions. also as the 23s he produces pattern-based music, but it pursues a different intention: each listener should dive into a hallucinatory world of seen and unseen films that his inner eye creates unprejudiced. all ten tracks are romantic smooth operators. they put themselves in service of an artistic vision, in which the listener should get lost in music. the album can be seen as a love-letter to the movie scores of the french 70s cinema or the impressionistic sound arrangements you can hear in the early cinema of peter greenaway. with double bass heat, discreet piano melodies, levitating guitar chords, some gentle horns here and there and beats that recollect the warm jazz influenced soul of oldschool hip-hop the 23s generate a sublime get-down-deep instrumental journey. you can listen to it attentive. or you can just play it in the back while doing whatever you like to do. it is recommended to play ÒflamingoÓ in a decent amount of volume as all loungey tracks begin to live bigger and brighter with sound intensity. if you play it flashy you will experience an atmospheric sometimes light-flooded, sometimes foggy 40-minute electronic journey that offers open-minded souls to fill the room between the notes with their very own milky fancy. soon the album will be accompanied by a bunch of remixes tuned in and twisted by producers like giegling and white artists edward, christian s of the c—meme tribe, canadian producer the mole and the german post rock and electronic music band to rococo rot.

london-based producer laurence matthew blake has been causing a stir under his citizenn alias for some time, delivering intoxicating, tactile, otherwordly blends of tech-house, powder-house, garage and electronica for the likes of madtech, love fever, 20:20 vision and, most recently, crosstown rebels. here, he returns to the latter with human interface, his debut album. it s a typically fluid and quietly soulful affair, with dreamy pads, touchy-feely electronics and shuffling dancefloor rhythms the order of the day. while there are a few powder house dancefloor moments, as you d expect, blake also doffs a cap to 2-step garage, booming bass house, skewed synth-pop and, on the wonderful you are, string-drenched deep house loveliness

it is a smart and airy groove of atoms in space that rules this mesmerizing album, leading off with an irresistibly deconstructed downbeat monstrosity deceptively tagged as the modern hit midget as opposed to actually being a giant. one giant of seven, to be precise: safe in harbour are the seven giants of free funk who proceed through a variety of way-out psychedelicacies. which increase in flavour under headphones. the wane of villalobos and loderbauers free-floating energy of their re:ecm work is more than offset here by the increase in rhythmic push through sensual syncopation and eruptive bass energy. the duo is the impetus in perlons great new swinging machine.

gerade rechtzeitig zum saisonauftakt auf der beliebtesten partyinsel europas bringen wir ibiza clubhits/summer 2015. in einem fetten dj-mix auf 2cds werden die besten und topaktuellsten house-hits gefeatured, zu denen auf den dancefloors der insel abgefeiert wird. robin schulz, laidback luke & tujamo, mike candys, hardwell und milk & sugar, sie alle sind auf dieser compilation vertreten!

electronic music approximately 35 years after bands like kraftwerk opened the magic box. a lot happened since then and it seems all is said, done and invented. however it is almost surprising that new things still pop up here and there when it comes to electronic music production.

joy adegoke und wim janssens aka joy wellboy sind seit jahren unzertrennlich, ein paar in leben und kunst. ihr zweites album wedding klingt so komplett und vielfŠltig, wie man sich ein popalbum 2015 nur wŸnschen kann: songwriting trifft crooning, elektrobeat kuschelt mit chanson, es gibt minnegesang auf der tanzflŠche, herzzerrei§ende duette und engtanzballaden fŸr die ewigkeit.

amusiana is here to promote quirky, offbeat music through eclectic mixes that will surprise as well as entertain you. its run by steve rowlands whos previous collaborations and releases are as diverse as full moon scientist (a break beat/dub outfit signed to leftfields label hard hands and botchitt & scarper), pusmipulyu (a nu-jazz outfit with michael dog signed to interchill records) and melinda miel and marc almond (experimental torch songs on normal records) to name but a few.

following the international success of his much acclaimed debut lp, drone logic, daniel avery expands on his wide reaching world with a carefully curated collection of remixes from the artists with whom averys forward facing electronic style shares the deepest affinity. inviting each producer to either compliment, reconstruct or occasionally rebuild his original compositions, new energy stands as a testament to the strength of the current state of affairs in electronic music, borne out of one of its most original talents.

it seems that there is an overabundance of artists today who have reached a level of success from their work, but very few of them come close to the level of output and range as butch. equal parts producer extraordinaire, dj, gentleman, and comedian, butch has everything deserving of a star in todays dance music arena. which is why, we here at watergate are extremely pleased to present him as next in line for our watergate mix series

american intelligence is theo s long awaited follow up to sound sculptures vol 1 and its truly sensational. huge tip!!! on this album theo fuses jazz & soul music with electronic production, making this album sound both futuristic and grounded in the past at the same time. contributions come from marcellus pittman, ideeyah, duminie deporres, sass & ruby 6 tracks extra on the cd version

without your love is the long awaited debut from ooooo on his brand new label nihjgt feelings.
