“the iceberg/freedom of speech... just watch what you say!” is the third studio album by infamous rapper ice-t, released in 1989. the album has an uncharacteristically gritty sound, featuring some of the darkest musical tracks that ice-t ever released. pressing on audiophile 180 gram vinyl.

it s argentinian time for melisma - on the a-side federico molinari teams up tender vocals and piano with a nice acid touch in a slightly hypnotic way - -joan s field- has a classic chicago sound setup blended with the an hypnotic and repetitive element that makes some dances longer ones.

largely sequencer-based composition practices opened up barera s usual hand-playing approach and allowed him to create rich and melodic, yet precise and powerful techno. -the opportunist- conjures images of arriving in darkness, taking what you can, and leaving quickly to avoid detection. -discipline- is barera s full-on workout, with all the rushes associated, itself very much a product of discipline. -a new future- suggests an optimistic if uncertain outlook, a world where anything is possible, while -last glacial maximum,- which refers to a period in the earth s history when ice sheets were at their most recent maximum extension, represents a somewhat bleaker view. the musically kindred spirits behind massachusetts-based mentha records are ideal partners in this project, warmly embracing barera s wide-eyed techno concepts.

out-of-print since 1994, this early release from the large music camp (on sub label swing street) has reached cult classic status and forced many a collector to seek out the few remaining rare copies available. much has been said recently about the production team of black ice, this release showcases the reasons why they are so highly praised and have been re-discovered as major influences in the chicago house sound. five tracks here that all feature raw and textured rhythms mixed perfectly with splashes of melody and soul.

providing a state-of-the-art rejuvenation of 90s ambient house, the heart ep (the first in a 2-part set of records) serves as a fluent example of the lighter side of greg scrases previously little-known, but masterfully honed craft – here paying homage to the past greats of electronica, drawing together different threads of influence and applying them to his own colourful sonic palette. the white 12 inch contains 3 exquisite original tracks that bubble and grow with a vibrant analogue charm, imbued with scrases house-ier tendencies and melodic capabilities - backed-up by a very special remix of *flyover* from like-minded acid aficionado dave monolith (under the moniker mnlth).

listening to the sound of konfetti klub ensemble creates associations of those sparkling drops that run down the side of an ice cold drink on hot summer days. it’s a very refreshing and delicious listening experience, it’s both stimulating and soothing. if you think the formula brass players + club groove is somewhat worn-out, you will be pleasantly surprised. pomelo comes with bouncy offbeat rhythms, and when the trombone hits in there’s clearly an air of balkan sound. however, around the middle of the track it turns into a joyful freestyle session. mollono.bass puts a bit more emphasis on beats, bass and pressure in his version, in other words: even a bit more emphasis on the dance floor. rotwein und sommerverbot gives a groovy hint why konfetti klub ensemble describe their sound as live brass house – it’s extremely jazzy and casual, a live session rather than a programmed arrangement. even more so schwankel, as it vibrates effortlessly between intricate musical deepness and sheer to-the-floor euphoria. last but not least there is a track exclusively for the digital release: stranddub – beach dub. let’s put it like that: there’s a damn good party happing at this beach.

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.

part 2 of this special collection of rare 1970s dance music, compiled and re-edited by al kent.

continuing the exploration of bristol 4/4 variants, immerse proudly offers forth this decisive two-tracker from the prodigious mind of jacob martin, better know as hodge. you might be more familiar with hodge from his work as part of outboxx, who we proudly debuted on ime025. that said, he first surfaced last year with the deadly conjecture on another fine bristol institution, pollen. one thing rings true in any of the output hodge is associated with, melody. shirking the safety of sterile mechanics that so many producers hide behind, he tackles interplaying notes and harmonies with a fearless exuberance. opening track the fall kicks off on a jerky groove and ice-cold organ murmurs, gently easing in layers and clips of sound with the same joie de vivre as akufen and other micro-house progenitors. ‘crush’ kicks off on a more decidedly broken tip, keeping the twostep shuffle slow and easy as whispers of garage skip in between the warm pads. the overriding vibe on hodge’s ep is one of unpretentious, good times tunage.

as its getting cold outside, this music makes me warm inside! the nights are getting longer, stars are shining bright-it is time for the season of real deepness again. smallpeople come along with another joint in splendid house music to welcome wintertime. dionne and julius steinhoff had an enormous success with their meadows ep together with christopher rau on smallville in last years autumn. that smallpeople issue has been celebrated by all the deep house buddies such as fred p, jus ed, dj koze and lawrence, mcde, xdb, rndm, etc- and it was included on some great compilations, like the timeless mix by lawrence on cocoon or gilles smith 10 years of secret sundaze cd

small craft on a milk sea entstand aus brian enos vorliebe für soundtracks, die er anfang der 1970er für sich entdeckte und anderer musik vorzog. in zusammenarbeit mit den beiden jungen komponisten/musikern leo abrahams und jon hopkins entstand dabei ein werk voller sinnlichkeit, intimität und mystik, ausgedrückt mit den möglichkeiten und freiheiten moderner elektronischer musik. dabei kristallisieren sich die stücke mehr aus improvisation statt komposition und wirken für sich alleine gesehen wie das spiegelbild eines stummfilms - wie filme, die nur aus klang bestehen: klangfilme! damit reiht sich brian enos soundkosmos wie von selbst ein in die releasereihe des kultlabels warp, speziell zu dessen electronic listening klassikern aus den 1990ern
