pat thomas and ebo taylor are the jagger and richards of nigerian highlife. drawn together by a mutual love of the genre – and an equally intense desire to stop it becoming moribund and bereft of ideas – ghana’s two most progressive musicians added a western twist to this traditional form of african music and gave it relevance again.

rawax proudly welcomes alexander dorn aka credit 00 to the rawax family!
back in the days at the west-saxon highlands there was a missile, which marked the starting point. when credit 00 saw the legendary rocket rise on tetris’ final screen, it was the first time he became aware of electronic music at all. since then it actually hasn’t changed that much. he keeps pushing that buttons that belong to the impressive pool of music machines towered up next to his bed. after moving to dresden in 2000 to study fine arts, his passion for synthesizers and drum machines got nurtured through visits of dresden’s club-canalisation. he quickly made himself a name as a dj, who is just doing his own thing and got popular for that reason. as a part of the idealfun-crew he started hosting parties always in the twilight zone between legal and illegal. this led to “robo dance”, dresden’s only and (also for some other reasons) best electro club night featuring guests like dmx krew, luke eargoogle or imatran voima. the track credit made with randy barracuda of imatran voima has probably been created some time after the show. apparently, randy was not in good shape anymore and so “lebensraum” unmistakably bears credit’s hallmarks. for his own music he’s inspired by cannibal movies, number theory and birds. still, his music is not easy to pigeonhole. after all, he loves synth wave, electro, afro, kraut, kosmische, disco, italo, miami bass and other proto stuff – a lot of machine music.

nice price deal !!! special and limited salespack, with slamming electrohouse for fans of david guetta etc

following on from david morales appearance on the label earlier this year, rekids tap up shed and ryan elliott for a pair of percussive reimaginations. well known for remixes of the thompson twins, shawn christopher, clive griffin and the pet shop boys, morales red zone moniker was conceived during the def mix legends formative years at the renowned club sharing the same name. 50 weapons and monkeytowns shed adopts his head high alter ego for a remix that draws the originals vocals into the spotlight before planting thunderous kick drums beneath whilst dusty pads operate above. meanwhile, ostgut ton affiliate ryan elliott crafts a reimagination that incorporates breaky percussion, a rumbling low end and sweeping astral synths.

so kam die postmoderne über uns und machte aus vormals ehrbaren kulturschaffenden werksarbeiter, denen alle schrauben abhanden gekommen schienen, im besten fall. mit minimaler eigenleistung (nimmt man die unbeabsichtigten fehler in der produktion mal aus), aber bei maximaler entgleisung entstand ein gänzlich neuer berufszweig. der grundsolide werksarbeiter, mit gema anmeldung im griff und guten draht zu seinem steuerberater. um die quietschfidelen arpeggio terroristen soll es heute mal nicht gehen. unsere protagonisten dieser geschichte sind andere. wahnwitzige, soziophobiker, menschen mit gebrochenen lebensläufen statt joghurt im rucksack, emsig agierende mitstreiter mit tupperdose in der tasche für die frühstückspause, willens den kampf der letzten kulturoffensive zu ende zu bringen, samplen, pitchen, alles zerhacken und zu undefinierbaren fetzen von funk wieder zusammensetzen. ausgeglichen vom duft der natur ankommend den fortschritt definieren wollen und den strom in die maschinen juckeln. Ästheten der fehler waren geboren. losgelöst vom fließband. hart & tief wird geackert geschwitzt, gebimmelt, der filter aufgedreht, der schmutz schaufelweise rangekarrt, bis die stufe der erlösung erreicht wird oder eben halt auch nicht. das leben ist nun mal kein einziger orgasmus und der funk entsteht in den pausen wie die befriedigung der gier und der besitz des moments, weil das leben ist doch nur ein wimpernschlag und wir immer nur einen abgrund entfernt von weltekel oder erlösung.

music is art presents topper. the fifth release is a superb demonstration of deep minimal techno. two fantastic tracks by topper on the front side and a great remix by nima gorji on the back side!

hey, do you remember how much dance music owes to experiment and coincidence????? quirky 7 release from lutto lento is kind of danceable but also raw and harsh, maybe hypnotic? first track sounds like a dark twisted fantasy about carnival in some cheap tropical spa. the other one will reach your guts and throw them upside down. hell yeah.

thom sonny green, seines zeichens schlagzeuger bei den britischen indierockern alt-j, stellt mit seinem solodebüt “high anxiety” nun auch fundierte songschreiber-, produzenten- und visual artist-qualitäten unter beweis. wo bei alt-j körperliche kraft und ausdauer gefragt sind, zeigt sich dieses projekt eher von seiner intellektuellen, esoterischen und doch bescheidenen seite. die einflüsse auf “high anxiety” waren vielfältig: von clams casino über deftones bis arca und radiohead. entsprechend experimentell und verspielt, jedoch gleichermaßen durchdacht präsentieren sich die 21 songs, begleitet von 21 videos, die die stimmung des albums widerspiegeln und verdichten. thom, für den kunst und musik die welt erst begreifbar macht und mit sinn erfüllt, veröffentlicht das album auf seinem eigenen label sudden in partnerschaft mit infectious music. sudden soll nicht nur “high anxiety” ein zuhause geben, sondern auch anderen künstlern die möglichkeit bieten, sich mit ihrer musik kreativ einzubringen.
das doppel-vinyl erscheint im klappcover, downloadcode inklusive.

drawing its energy from the rapid waters of the bio bio river and its grace from viña del mar’s golden sand, a secret society was born. and with its first release we get to feel this newborn record label’s mission: to bring together contrasts and smoothly harmonise them. extending on the whole a side we find sit’ near jam, provocative on all our perception levels, with sudden rhythm changes yet still loyal to its silky soft percussion. on the flip side funk e and luc ringeisen collaboration your house proposes a rough and ruthless bassline, high paced by uber obsessive hi hats and subtly softened by dreamy melodic bubbles. and how to better close this release than placing our states of mind into juice and bread, an enigmatic high altitude minimal landscape imagined by cleymoore and joaquin lledoo, filled up with buzzing sounds and washed away by strange windy loops. so this is it! secret society chile revelled its plans to the world: stay true to its chilean roots and expand its visions to far outer-lands.

up next on good company records is the hi vibe ep, a four-track trip into the outback of your mind, with synthetic friends timo l and deni deni, aka long body. setting off early in the piano-led landcruiser on a big trip , the listener is then invited to drop out by the spring of fuzzy logic ... over on the flip, it s (inner-)spacesuits on, until the dreamtime kosmische of stay vacation awakens to endless going and re-entry procedures can begin... -splashdown- !

very tasty output by high water! tip! jazzy, trippy reggae house vibes

british producer reformed society is on a steadfast mission to dig deeper by going against the grain, standing up to the status quo and daring to do something different. a self proclaimed goal that is easily noticeable in his first release for “made of concrete”, wherein he reveals three original tracks and a remix by gathaspar, one of the label’s regulars. kicking things off with “high tension”, a high strung stripped back piece with an aerial feel, the artist builds up the entire mood of the ep from scratch. a clear-cut, steady groove whose versatility makes it relevant as an intro, outro or interlude. gathaspar’s rausch remix is a sub-bassy reinterpretation of the initial piece, filled with contorted whirs and whizzes that give the track a sub- aquatic feel. on “volgende halte”, the opening vocal sample shifts from a seemingly conventional soundbite to a recurringly haunting snippet that remains etched into the listener’s brain. rhythmical rolling pads galvanize the groove, making for an eerie yet relaxed overall vibe. movement inducing from the get go, final offering “orbiting jupiter” centers around wavering bass leads, while playing on a blend of spacious synths and timbered percussion patterns.

i was deep in texas when a call came through... -hey man it s cherry ! ...we got some sick new shit for you, gonna blow your mind- i waited nervously for the package. it arrived two weeks later. i slipped the hot black acetate from its wrapper and placed it on the turntable... wired guitars wail like banshees on heat, primal beats erupt drenched in dark juice from roots of trees slick with crunk. flutes and bells hang like exotic flowers that reek of jungle sex and all night long the pulse goes on and on and on as usual cherry was right...this most surely is one sick motherfucker of a record. don t get me wrong there s warped beauty here aplenty but you gotta take it easy. don t ingest it all at once...make sure you re in comfortable surroundings, trust me i know...six months later and i m still feeling the burn. damn you cherry garcia.

the three tracks travel in many different directions. speaking directly to all the dreamers, the result is a surprising cross-over in which synthesized european music gets injected by imaginary tropical visions. the record is opening with the inner mind percussive ambient « chekema », an animistic incantation that will please all those who see parties as modern ritual gatherings. the jazzy wave of « get enough » cracks open the b-side. it’s a foggy street jam in which the cold cr-68 rhythm balances perfectly with the warm organ chords of the crumar. closing things off is the spectral reggae song “love so high”, a desperate cry from a polar explorer stranded on an iceberg drifting towards the carribean. heartbreaking.

summer, sunshine, feeling good - for their long desired debut album mollono.bass & ava asante take this great essence of life to compose a unique kind of electronic music. by combining the catchiness of their solid grooves with a touching violin and a breathtaking voice they create a magical journey that will make you feel like birds flying high. while some tracks are bursting with euphoria, others swing along with dubby easiness - and all of them will touch your soul deep inside.

raw, rugged & slightly unhinged serpentine delirium from our man in okayama. equally at home in the warehouse or on the forest floor.

lth is back on track with brooklyn cuts as the first release in 2016... the label is proud to introduce noha and tomas station to the catalogue... of course you can expect more quality music coming from these guys.

high mobility weapons unit continues its exploration, entering an unknown solar system and landing on a desolate mining planet. the counter rockets ep is the second release on the imprint, drawing influences from heavier, lo-fi territories, whilst still maintaining hmwu s characteristic space techno sound. the a-side starts off with the title track, counter rockets , which is a dj tool that combines functional bleeps with machine processed percussion. a2 serves up abandoned interstellar tomb , a fusion of atmospheric deep space bass and jacking drum patterns. on the b-side, deep sea deposit kicks things off with a poly-woven synth line that contorts and shifts throughout the track. finally, excavation site rolls along with its muted melodies and haunting fx, all built above a floor of sub-bass.

berlin-based palms trax continues adding to his run of quality efforts with the forthcoming release of his high point on low ground ep: impressive effort number two for the dekmantel imprint. serving up three retro-futuristic killers, donaldson parades his ability to touch on the many different corners of contemporary house music, whilst delivering heavyweight dancefloor standards. the title track blazes a beaten-up vocal snippet over stanked-out synths, stretched to a breaking point across a low-riding bass line. a stabbing moroder-esque bass line dominates cloud city , whilst paws equals pure and raw broken-beat bliss with a pinch of acid.

slamming 90s analog sounding house ep

caceress comes back to lth with his second solo release named as todo o nada ep. 4 tracks with strong personality. artwork made by the young maestro santiago ayerbe. already supported by nastia, anthea, felipe valenzuela and more.

jean nipon most recently known for his standout productions on parisien label clekclek boom joins the l.i.e.s. stable with a new three track ep. the a-side sees nipon go straight for the throat with a chicago-esce muted-synth beating drum track, not unlike early poindexter or ricky smith productions- it is effective, dj ready, and geared for the club. the two track b-side takes a more mellow and dusty approach- without losing his sense of rhythm engaging drum programming push along tape warbled melodies as the tracks expand and release, balancing out and letting this ep breathe perfectly.

wow, this is a turn up for the dancefloors - this new jolly jams release is by dj kaos of jolly jams records (i guess the introduction about him is not necessary). always highly collectable and rare, youll find eight jams showcasing the labels stunning sound. lay back is the opener of this beautiful ep, a house/acid stormer that is pure dancefloor dynamite. on the flip its psyche-rock class in the form of hurricane wheels. listen for yourself to the other six jams, well keep this review nice and short. dont miss out on these pieces of history!

ynk’s 2nd ep for polytone is much more than a continuation of his earlier records on polytone and tenderpark. instead, the young artist wants his new ep to be seen as an autonomous work which draws on a multitude of different materials. this leads to a very fluid texture of samples, synths and drum machines and a very detailed structure at first sight - however, all elements fit into each other very nicely and make way for the bigger picture if you take a step back.

dany deliver a new ep on his own label, high sense ep with a melodic lead inside and massive drum to burn the dancefloor. also including 2 remixes by marco bailey & sierra sam. play it and have a nice trip!

expertly executed, sub heavily booming, superiorly effective house bombs

nice price deal !!! the brstl label reaches its tenth release with a return to where it started with a 12 inch from october & borai. the label was set up by rhythmic theory, chris farrell and shanti celeste in 2011 from the idle hands record shop as a means to showcase the finest house and techno being produced in their city, bristol. octobers * head 4 phuture* is a nod to the acid pioneers without resorting to revivalism. instead a heady groove is teased out over several minutes, perfect dj gear. october & borai * too high the future* is a heady stoned house groove, from bristols highest producers – with some weighty sub to propel things along.

pablo marco comes back to the label pushing out >crossing the river ep< as the seventh reference of lths catalogue. the artwork was painted by the young maestro from colombia, santiago ayerbe. all 4 tracks have been played over and over and they work for the dancefloor everytime. better to discover it by yourself.

high mobility weapons unit sets off from an unknown location on earth, making its maiden voyage beyond our solar system and towards a distant galaxy. the transverse velocity ep is the debut release on the self-titled imprint, serving up four original tracks that are heavily influenced by mechanical cycles and deep space concepts. the a-side kicks off with the eps title track transverse velocity, where an array of eroded satellite bleeps and waves loop together as the analogue low-end pulsates rhythmically below. in wave 102 the bleeps are detuned and erratically timed, with a glitchy tape delay unit modulating them throughout the track. the saturated 808 kick drum and processed percussion are given a functional structure, allowing the bleeps to take centre stage. on the b-side, both cycle 01 and astronomy tool serve as stripped-back percussive dj tools. cycle 01 rolls along with its hollow, muted polyrhythmic stab line, whilst astronomy tool drives forward with an effective, crystalline synth hit. mastered by black monolith studios.

ellen alliens erste ep in 2015 beweist mal wieder, dass die liebe zur musik doch die schönste droge auf erden ist. weil aus der euphorie schnell ein rausch werden kann, gerade wenn diese liebe ausgelassen auf dem dancefloor geteilt wird, ist ihre 11-minütige reise * high* auch der tanzenden crowd gewidmet. und auch auf der b-seite geht es um energieaustausch: * lou* steht exemplarisch für die treibenden parts von ellens sets. listen. feel. space out.
