mehr als zweieinhalb jahre liegen zwischen der letzten gro?tat (dark angel) und dem nun endlich vorliegenden neuen werk des legend?ren kieler sextetts. f?r eine so leidenschaftliche band keine frage: am ende des tages muss eine platte her, die alles vorherige m?glichst nochmals eindrucksvoll in den schatten stellt. in anbetracht von genre klassikern wie 777 bloodrock oder german angst kein leichtes unterfangen. und doch gegl?ckt: colossus sollte als das ultimative smoke blow album in die geschichte eingehen.

still reeking from the filth of the tv studio, tabloid mongering and howls of blasphemy from the old guard, dj seinfeld is proving to be a hardened veteran of the circuit. a new anti-hero for a humourless and devoid internet age kicking against the hollywood reptiles. ‘ruff hysteria’ is the sounds from the cutting room floor deemed too unsavoury for public consumption. it’s the grind of acid in the hotel lobby and the incessant pulse of a walkman tucked into a tuxedo pocket oozing it’s way into the central nervous system. it’s four tracks abandoned by the mainstream studios picked up by the grotty b-movie generation. the losers, the freaks, gore heads. bare bones tackle for the floor and analogue anthems for the disenchanted.

soundtrack zur aktuellen netflix-serie black mirror. die musik stammt von ben salisbury & geoff barrow (portishead, beak). gemeinsam haben sie schon den soundtrack zum hollywood-film ex machina sowie das konzept-album drokk: music inspired by mega city one komponiert. black mirror gehört zu den ungewöhnlichsten serien im moment: wenn technik eine droge ist und es fühlt sich wie eine droge an, was genau sind dann die nebenwirkungen? dieser bereich zwischen vergnügen und unbehagen ist der schauplatz meiner neuen dramaserie black mirror, sagt serien-schöpfer charlie brooker. der score ist entsprechend düster, elektronisch, atmosphärisch. er erinnert an die klassischen soundtracks von john carpenter, throbbing gristle und jean-michel-jarre.

close talker zählen zur neuen kanadischen generation des progressive pop und veröffentlichen mit lens nun ihr bereits drittes album. schon der vorgänger wurde in kanada zum independent album of the year gekürt. lens mag eines dieser alben sein, die sich nicht gleich beim ersten hören erschließen. vielmehr steigert sich die qualität von mal zu mal, ständig entdeckt man neue nuancen, technische spielereien und eine vielfältigkeit, die besonders unter dem kopfhörer seine ganze pracht entfaltet. es zieht einen mehr und mehr in seinen bann und man kann von einer sucht sprechen, die niemals enden soll. ihr talent, ihre sensibilität sowie ihr händchen für songwriting ist erstaunlich und dazu ist ihre musik so herrlich zeitlos, so reif und doch so modern dieser vermeintliche widerspruch erschließt sich beim hören dieses wunderbaren werks.

sliding into french press lounge’s second 12” in a reasonably priced used car on rain-soaked tarmac is hollywood, fl producer saki. known for his famously crispy, nearly-obliterated sound and rude-dude attitude, saki pulls down the gain (and the sun shades) to provide four hazy coastal house tools fit to blast over the comm system above the lazy river, relying on a no-frills hardware setup (homie needs floppy discs to even play a track!) and a rough-and-ready live recording policy, complete with abrupt endings.

ultimate block party breaks volume 4 continues the tradition that began in the bronx in the 1970’s, where “break djs” would take that one part of the record that dancers would go absolutely crazy for. that part where all the music breaks down to nothing but the essence: drums and percussion. these are all truly timeless beats that sound as fresh today as they did when the founding fathers like kool herc, bam, flash and hollywood were catching them for the frst time in community centers throughout the city. we’ve edited and extended these breaks for maximum effect on the dancefloor - so you don’t have to. enjoy!

ghana soundz was the first ever soundway compilation and became recognised worldwide due to the licensing of the oscar sulley track, ‘bukom mashie’ to the soundtrack of hollywood blockbuster, ‘last king of scotland’.
pounding rhythms, blaring horns and pumping vocals – the music is a document of a time forgotten when flares and cuban heels strutted the streets and night-spots of accra, the sizzlingly hot and humid capital of ghana. influenced as much by traditional rhythms and local highlife as by the music of fela kuti, james brown and santana, these tunes had almost become extinct – until now!
ghana soundz was the first of three collections of rare afro-beat, afro-funk and afro-fusion that miles cleret painstakingly travelled the length and breadth of ghana to assemble, the third compilation to be released late 2009.

after spending the majority of 2009 in hollywood, chanes briefly returned home to finish up songs for what would become his 2010 release, an experimentation in instrumentation. the 15-track tape, presented by house shoes, exposed us all to the nomadic 21-year-old producer from canton, michigan. chanes would spend the next two years working between home and brooklyn, before relocating to arizona, where he would release his follow up project, renegade hands, (insect records 2013). presented again by shoes, hands solidified chanes as one of the most promising young producers in the country.
fast-forward to 2016, and at 27, this self-titled debut takes us circa 2007 - 2009 with the soul-chopping salad days of his mother s basement, through the alternative sampling williamsburg, brooklyn sessions of 2010. if the melancholy desert psychedelia of his isolated four years in perpetual southwestern summer gives us a glimpse into his growing electronic influences, then the angst of his winter homecomings are hiding under the aggressive parka weather beats that first caught the attention of detroit’s underground.
fittingly, chanes’ debut lp comes full circle, finishing the album back in the place it all started and releasing it with long-time supporter house shoes and street corner music.

“last days and time” is the third studio album by american r&b group earth, wind & fire, released in 1972, their debut album on columbia records. it was recorded at the legendary sunset sound studios in hollywood, california, with founder and multi-instrumentalist maurice white, verdine white and philip bailey. due to their live performances it cemented their status as the main funk band and set the stage for the band’s blockbuster breakthrough. songs on the album like “make it with you” (originally from bread) the pre-“brazilian rhyme” powerful funk sax style “power”, (which sounds like an early version of “serpentine fire”) and “remember the children” are excellent examples of the great songs and albums they have made during their career.

san proper gushing on dg..small initial pressing on this one... be quick... tip! san: “lovers, friends, fam. and fans – love is in the air, get ready.” finally, the craze you’ve all been waiting for. this ep listens like one of dr. proper’s infamous radio show or deejay set. impossible to categorize, dropping house, electro, funk, and paying homage to disco. l.o.v.e. is a collaboration with ms. hollywood. an alliance that results in the whole breathing sexy and deep. whereas san proper stays in character for the rest of the ep. his use of the reverb adds shine and glory, and the drums are hit hard. in other words, music with an unprecedented character–just the way we like it.

the 1995 ll cool j album back on vinyl.

nice price deal !!! helping listeners to escape reality, which has been known to grate, on occasion, has long been a noble aim of many musicians. one of the most effective ways to do that is to create imaginary soundtracks for impossible science-fiction films, the darker and more un hollywood-like, the better. another method is to take inspiration from great works of architecture, which, as goethe cogently noted, is frozen music. the latter route is used by brooklyn producer jonas reinhardt (aka jesse reiner) on his sixth album, palace savant. reiner undergoes a profound solo odyssey on this album. the vinyl lp includes a download code.

polymath james leyland kirby must surely have one of the most confounding cvs in the business: he spent years taking the piss out of the music industry with anthems rallying against the (vv)mcps, he notoriously fell out with various well known record labels for reasons you ll just have to google, goaded aphex twin with a series of tributes and channelled his love of everything from falco (rock me amadeus), chris de burgh, frankie goes to hollywood and stockport karaoke nights into a stream of increasingly bizzare 7 s back in the early noughties. but at the same time he was responsible for releasing some of the very earliest material from boards of canada (hell interface: 1997), made a ruck of frankly groundbreaking industrial electronic records, brought new beat to the worlds attention and, in 1999, made his first album as the caretaker, a project that would go on to release some of the most loved ambient/ lynchian albums of recent times.

the alias of welsh-born, california-based brian williams, lustmord first emerged as an associate of spk in the early 80s, before embarking on a solo career that has yielded such classics as heresy (1990), the place where the black stars hang (1994) and (with robert rich) stalker (1995). lustmord has also contributed to numerous hollywood films as music and sound designer, and collaborated with the likes of clock dva, chris & cosey, geir jenssen, the melvins, tool, aaron turner, monte cazazza and coils jhon balance. often seen to epitomize dark ambient, it would be more accurate to say that his work simply goes deeper, further, than conventional ambient dares, or is able, to go. half a decade in the making, the word as power is his new studio album and an exploration of ritual music without dogma.

it has been a while since alex showed up with a follow up on credo, but as you know, good things do not only last for a while, they also require some time to be finished and this result is more than worth to wait for! hollywood bullet might remind you on some classic trackss essence and it kicks of impressively however, the real >go< follows after huuuge breaks and now its your turn to free the animals on the dancefloor with this weapon that contains not only plenty of energetic basslinesounds, but also load of colors which could be missed these days on often very monotonous technoproductions. alex is not afraid of bringing colors, and not only shades on credo, and so does heartattack: a really weird and unexpected groove on 120 bpm only, even kind of housy, but the upbuilding rythmic noises bring the track back to where it comes from, and this is nothing else as pure bassic energy. very very big release in our eyes!

for a while it was the perfect label… no,were not (yet) talking about gomma from munich,also an excellent address. this is about the legendary company casablanca records&filmworks from hollywood who during the second half of the 70s literally skyrocketed and played an essential part in shaping modern disco music. besides scoring some mega successes with their famous leading acts donna summer, kiss und village people, casablanca revolutionized the development of electronic dance music like no other label.
