>a good friend of ours said after hearing an advance copy of this record that adult. used to sit on the sidelines and critique the idiosyncrasies of culture, but now we are on the inside, sending our message out.< so says adam lee miller of the way things fall, adult.s fifth album and a record that genuinely deserves the oft abused music industry epithet longawaited. miller pauses before adding wryly, >we agree.<

through out history, there has a been a growth of intellectual thoughts, thoughts that makes us different from other living creatures. among those thoughts, we see familiar rules of moral and ethics in many historical contexts such as in law and religion, among warriors and even pirates.

*bastard child of house* is a tribute to chicagos most famous record store. inspired by a video about some native chicago guys working at the store, peter schumann and kareem decided to set words to a tune and create their own version of the story. they asked their buddy dcnt if he could add his interpretation too. and so it happened that words became sound and sound inspired more sound and as we speak everything turns into words again. with both versions the tooliness is very obvious, while the original is organic and warm in terms of tone and sound design, the dcnt version has a more technoish feel and relies heavily on its edgy and straightforward character.

for now is the second ep by brooklyn duo beacon, five songs that continue the bands exploration of the dark spaces under the surface of human relationships. as with the bands debut ep no body, for now is a record that conceals a great deal of depth beneath a melodic veneer— again, there is a stark contrast between thomas mullarneys honeyed vocals and the words he is singing, although this time the mood is perhaps less sinister and more reflective.

the story begins somewhere far away from awareness and rational thought. our main characters plays the roles of lost but not aimless arrows of pictures. pictures made out of sub atomic movements, amplified through breathable air and finally fragmenting its energy into space. we see the the sun go down in the ocean, the purple and red colors and finally the majestic sight of whales plowing the water in the horizon. it has been many years, in fact, so many years that we are now back again to the same point time. it is like an infinite loop, never loosing pace and determination.

recorded in dears home studio and mixed at nicolas vernhes rare book room studios in brooklyn, beams evokes a day-lit dreamworld at once strange and familiar. while the albums dancefloor-ready tempos, major keys, and sun-warmed synths signal beams as the lighter, brighter response to its predecessor, closer inspection reveals a squirming mass of oddball details. dears latest productions on beams creak and groan like anxious organisms, with slivers of guitar, electric bass, and drum kit darting in and out among the synths and samples. beams is the latest transmission from one of pop musics most fascinating creative minds. tour dates coming in nov and dec after recently performing live in may this year in select key cities.

arriving at their fourth release, emotional rescues knowledge of forgotten musical gems and their commitment to give them the chance of wider appreciation they fully deserve cannot be in question! after digging out that bob chance classic, the focus switches to something of an equally balearic nature with the release of jaki whitren & john cartwrights lost folk rock album international times. originally released as a private press on the obscure french label living records back in 1983, this eight track album is filled with dusty soul nuggets which are given extra life by the silky vocal stylings of whitren - formerly a backing singer for alan parson. opening track >stay cool< sounds quite ahead of its time, whilst there are some true dancefloor gems for the more adventurous djs out there, such as the title track and the laid back bump of >go with the flow<.

ancient future is the second collaboration between visionary pianist ryuichi sakamoto and electronic pioneer christopher willits. built around a series of piano pieces that sakamoto sent to willits after the release of the duos first record together, 2008s ocean fire, the six tracks that make up ancient future are entirely instrumental—and yet, they speak about the very essence of what it means to be human. as a whole, ancient future functions as a piece about the creation, acceptance and completion of ones fate and all of lifes experiences, following a trajectory through inner conflict, resolution and, ultimately, acceptance.

in the context of shigetos debut lp lineage, >huron river drive< functions as a respite of sorts, a brief stop on the roadside of a very personal into the past. but as this single release proves, it also stands alone as a pleasantly understated piece of electronic beauty. the track swells slowly from the simple chord sequence of the intro into a lushly textured slice of late-night atmospherics – with more than a hint of jazz to be found in the brushed percussion and quietly tinkling electronic piano – and then receding back into the same sequence as the track draws to a close.

her fantasy is the second single to drop and lead single from beams. >do i feel love like all of the others or is this feeling only mine?< dear sings on the strutting track, later wondering >am i one heartbeat away from receiving a damaging shock to my life?< these are the words of a man with something to lose—love, stability, a burgeoning family. dear is growing up—reluctantly, maybe—and he wears his newfound lyrical maturity with grace.

gold panda war einer der newcomer im letzten jahr und weltweit auf jeder bestenliste dabei. gold pandas musik mag als ein scherbenhaufen aus knapp beschnittenen minisamples beginnen, aber was der junge londoner daraus zusammenkittet, ist alles andere als chaotisch und abweisend. Über lebendig pulsierenden beats verströmen wortlose songs wie you oder snow & taxis schimmer-charme en masse.

discolight! pilocka krachs put your hands up in the air tune is getting remixed. wow! remixes by acid pauli, hrdvision, hannah holland, patric catani.

straight japanese killer techno !!! tight, mechanical and brutal with an underlying funk, snow monkeys is the sort of multi-faceted beast that kobayashi is known for. the rough edges are allowerd full space to create tension but the track is tempered with some brilliant, shimmering and evocative melodies that slide into the mix for just the right amount of time before subsiding into the churning groove. one of the new school of japanese techno producer, a.mochi delivers a well pitched, moody version on the flip. pacey yet measured in its progression its a version that takes the originals tension to new levels and wont be a surprise for anyone who has heard his productions / remixes for the likes of figure, cocoon and a-wave. hideo kobayashi is one of the few producers who can skip from deep or vocal house though to searing techno with ease and snow monkeys is a perfect example of what he can do when it comes ot the tougher sounds

extremely welcome reissue for one of the absolute holy grails of the rare groove scene. ultra-rare and super-expensive in its original 1980 release, this incredibly sexy tune from chicago band starvue fully deserves its status as a true soul anthem. produced by the chi-lites clarence johnson, >body fusion< never lets up the dancefloor pressure from beginning to end - the wonderful fusion of achingly beautiful strings, loping bass, flutes, the coolest fingersnaps and of course the mesmerising vocals of tony hicks combine to create an intensely emotional and rolling momentum that builds and builds. a masterpiece of soul history that still sounds as fresh as ever - essential!

after several appearances on the label, kareem comes up trumps again with an excellent first solo single release backed by a wonderful remix from white doyen oskar offermann himself.how low can you go the opener track acts as a discreet, structured, driving and some how dubby house tune that keeps a nice layer of grit beneath the fingernails. its loopy character imparts the feeling of virtually remaining unchanged but it nevertheless staidly evolves within its sonic borders and imparts a sensual quality of all-enveloping warmth. oskar offermanns interpretation of how low can you go introduces skipping melodies that are transmitted as choppy discoesque pulses and rhythmic modulated bass sounds are the preferred form of punctuation. indeed the remix is intended to be a dj tool, but like all of oskar offermanns recent house works, it builds smoothly as though every element was simply waiting in the wings to make its appearance at the proper moment, and – just before it finishes up – sounds like it could go on forever.

for the past decade or so, polish musician michal jacaszek has been exploring a new, resolutely modern chapter in eastern europes long, storied love affair with classical music. his creations are painstakingly crafted collages of electronic textures and baroque instrumentation, harpsichords being swarmed by woolly static one minute and pulled apart by billowing wind the next. ambient music - if we can generalize unnecessarily for a second - is rarely so sonically challenging.
