the tracks here are in the brutalist machine house vein and the source material for * we come together* (by mazi as asp and john griffin as awoke) will be familiar to devotees of roots chicago house. the brodanse brothers * sleep won t come* is remixed by audio soul project and awoke. chicago based multi-instrumentalist jonn wallen contributes the dense * aesthete* under pseudonym *by gordon gartrelle*. * we get together* is a tribute to the 90s house that inspired us to start making music years ago. people reminisce about how things used to be better, but you must breath in the present. we keep with us those hallowed bones but let pain and suffering fade into the mist. we let memories fade in the depths of our neural web so as not to be paralyzed by the burden of sentiment. we forget to stay sane.

strange happenings are going on down at scrutton street, ec1. with release after release cementing the names of those based or working out of the studio bunker, a desire for pushing the boundaries of electronic music is primary with little concern for whats hip. so if anyone can tim can and here with his newly birthed pseudonym comes junior fairplay. with a one-sided release and remix to his name on crimes of the future a glimpse has been offered of whats in store, but how do you like me now? gives it straight.

tk disco come up trumps yet again with 2 absolutely solid, killer pieces of disco funk for the heads! the miami label has long had a cult following & found fame with disco aficionado s the world over & it s easy to see why. their back catalog is peppered with rarities & classics including the 2 cuts featured here.

hailing from the rank depths of sf bay area back-alleys and only the grittiest of rundown nightclubs and dive bars, a taste of dj milanesa especials sleazy magic is finally here for the world to behold. fellow yay area freak and veteran fan of all things slightly askew for the dance floor, dave aju, managed to get dj milanesa onboard in the studio for this nasty ass jam of the highest/lowest order. chili dog surely finds its inspiration in the classic dance mania cannon of raw shit-talking party-rocking house trax, but ajus unique knob twists and turns here and there on co-production steers it clear into 2015 - the first wildly oversexed dance move anthem of the year is here, and hopefully only the first of many: if youre hungry double up, everybodys

atjazz on local talk! pretty good combo right? well, just wait until you hear fox tooth and we re quite sure you ll agree with us that this is something above normal rank. martin iveson aka atjazz gave us a release that will work just as well on big sound systems as well as in those dark house basements. the original version is an electronic house jam that s equipped with all necessary tools in order to peak in the main room but without all the played out tech-house schemes. it s uplifting yet dark and carves a very personal groove - yum ! oh, don t miss the killer break down...big! the second version comes in the form of his inspired atjazz galaxy aart dub and this to be fair is more of a remix than a dub. here we step straight down to the darkness for a warming deep house cut that sounds like something from the prescription archives but still retaining the trademark atjazz sound. this is simply, sophisticated house music for those who like things real.

prodigious underground nyc producer larry josephs sparque project turned in a handful of classic 12inchs for west end records & lets go dancing is probably the most well known of all of them. all the hallmarks of classic west end are here, the futuristic production (1981!) soulful vocals & killer arrangements all combine with francois kevorkian & larry levans legendary mixing desk skills to give us this bonafide garage classic that rocked dance floors from nyc to chicago on its release & still packs a punch today! this record is all about having fun, partying & losing yourself in the music, an essential classic that has stood the test of time for the last 30+ years & is now available again, remastered & repressed for 2015 in conjunction with west end records, nyc.

here at nang towers we are really happy to have back slovenian talent sare havlicek, without any doubt one of our favourite producers, and to present you all his latest creation *movies for lovers*. sometimes we like to try something a bit different. often the process of creating an album can be a not-so-simple task: which tracks are the singles? which is the breather track? do we have ten songs? have we covered all the bases? the list goes on. sometimes the answer is to throw convention out the window and just try to harness a burst of energy and get it down on eighteen minutes-a-side of vinyl. we gave sare the following brief: lock yourself in a studio for four weeks and come up with a piece of cohesive work. abandon the formulas, do some experimenting and (most importantly) try some things you wouldnt normally do. *movies for lovers* is the result of that session and encapsulates the feeling of the journey sare embarked on to bring you this album.

repress , leleka and udacha artist dices resurfaces on split-based label fields & forests, overseeing their debut release which introduces untitled gear, a collection of artistically minded individuals from the st petersburg area. encompassing musicians, producers, photographers and singers, untitled gear sound like quite the sprawling group but there s a sense of cohesion and tightness to the four tracks here. falling deftly into the pocket of jazz influenced house that vakula has helped pioneer, untitled gear sound best when vocalists are employed, see the stupendously cosmic throb of *nothing is over* and the sultry swagger of *flying high*. more please fields & forests.

with iyewaye, the first solo-ep after the release of his fifth album i am ok last year, oliver koletzki shows himself in a new, but not altogether unfamiliar light: since his breakthrough in 2005 with der mückenschwarm koletzki hasnt sounded this hard. gone is the pop-angle, replaced by a dark sound-aesthetic and raw energy. but even here, in the techno realm, oliver koletzki demonstrates his inimitable sense for melody: thus, the gloomy and driving framework of iyewaye is lit up by a crystal-clear synth-sequence. similarly, ipuza, which hypnotizes by way of reduction and repetition, is funky in its core thanks to a rolling tribal groove. functional, but with heart and soul.

first up here is kenloto, a chunky bit of bass driven house with crisp perc. it builds to a nice tense peak with lots of loose, jumbled textures and will make for a fine bit of peak time listening. the other original is whack, which is another tough house cut with firm bass, old school new jersey snare patterns and rolling drums that are rich, warm and rubbery. miguel lobo s remix is a more spritely thing with lithe chords, colourful synths and and a pent up energy that just never stops giving. closing out the fantastic package is paul c & paulo martini who remix kenloto into a trippy affair with ghoulish voices, hard hitting drums and lots of dark wave energy that will carry you late into the night.
