full pupp takes us on a trip to the darkest side of disco with 3 suspenseful takes on the lionheart brothers >the drift<. frisvold & lindbaek dont waste much time lull you in with gentle introductions but pull you right into their deepest lair where swathes of billowing, ghostly sounds and warped strings are sliced trough by gyrating rock guitars and echoing vocals truly messing with sense of reality and orientation. a psychedelic onslaught of stoner rock, italian horror soundtrack and progressive electronics which in the morten oby & prins thomas version obtains its dizzying intensity from stacking said components tightly to a towering, dense sound of wall while prins thomas diskomiks on the flip takes it sweet time of pleasurably adding up the spine tingling aural ingredients over a straighter beat, slowly tightening the screw during to course of 12 gloriously spooky minutes.

the coombes debut ep is an astonishingly graceful and multifaceted creature that effortlessly synthesizes psych rock, minimal folk and electronica.the coombe began as a soundtrack collaboration between karen sharkey and samuel de la rosa (led er est) for some animated short films karen was producing while living in queens, ny. after their move to texas in 2012, further experimenting resulted in longer songs, noise suites, and field recordings that later would represent the essence of this ep. born and in part recorded in the desert, the coombe is comprised of six mesmerizing gems that provide a rarefied glimpse into a touching and liquid soundscape. these are songs for the enamored.
limited edition of 300 copies with artwork by giandomenico carpentieri. strongly recommended to fans of five or six, flaming tunes, led er est.

a yawning desert covers and oppresses a distant daemon-sphere pregnant with the stuff of a thousand earths. clouds of the same hue and attitude as the infinite sands gradually dominate the sky, possessed of a malign intelligence. a trans-generational caravan cuts an unforgiving line through the dunes in a fruitless mission to close its great mad circle, forever missing by just miles. it is a roving, innumerable harem in liege to an unsexed tyrant who sings them this song, reproduced here by resonant hole emissaries jeanne vomit-terror and ed sunspot, as the caravan commits the abominable act of transgressing the horizon into the infant sky-desert “above.” carl calm’s “gulf of night” mix is a monster, as is the great mike simonetti’s perverse interpretation!

sombre notes drop to create a melancholic muscular beast. the flip sees e.r.p. aka gerard hanson aka convextion flying in from texas on remix duty. hanson weaves his magic, a lush melody of idm depth descends to elevate this remix into something sublime. vinyl only with amazing artwork.

on the fourth unterton release the black dog present a new sound somewhere between house and techno that the black dog call darkhaus. the original version of * council flat emptiness* is an infectious, futuristic, disco-tinged version of a progressive dancefloor workout bathed in strings, mellow melancholia and heavy bass. this is preceeded by a straight to the point stripped down version that multiplies the hypnotic elements of the original. on the b-side a 9-minute-30-something remix from luke slaters l.b.dub corp project drives the original into classic slater territory where techno and groove marry and electrify each other.

after the delectable and somewhat surprising first dishes served up on the schmorgasbord by appleblim & october and s-max & spatial in 2011, the label has been slow-cooking its next wares for maximum intensity of flavour, drafting in two chefs of wild international repute shunned from the michelin star regime and forced into renegade culinary exploits that use food (or music) as merely a vessel for their twisted science. al tourettes has zapped many a taste bud in his time, bastardising the fundamental ingredients of electro, funk and techno and marinating in a glutinous psychedelia as organic as it is mechanised.

we are the ones with the courage to stand up and express our ideas. so many heroes have sold out, moved on, and turned their back on the detroit underground. if the true believers are waiting on the calvary then i guess cryovac will have to do. this is our fight whether we like it or not. we are a few like minds, not the alphas, never the favorites. we are the other guys, the ones nobody bets on, the least likely to survive a business. we know what the score will bring us, but there is an appointment and we mean to keep it. heroes must define themselves and then redefine themselves. each day that moves forward brings opportunities to tweak creations into what the now means. kieth kemp endures the elements and ailments of an ever changing electronic world. he is an original hero with a smooth technique that reflects an instinctual nderstanding of sound and soul. kieth represents a talent and spirit that does not falter no matter how strange a circumstance can get. he follows his own path to relavence. i am proud to welcome kieth to the cryovac machine.

part two of the idjut boys mixes on file under disco sees the legendary uk dj and production duo drop a tab of acid in jkriv & the disco machines orange juice. with effects units set to stun and a course set for acid disco space … the idjuts work classic acid house elements into these mixes to produce an effect as strong as any dodgy microdot. and with the disco machines authentic disco vocals riding and floating on top of this hybrid blend the result is a truly wanged out and rather devastating piece of dance floor magic. pure idjut style! both cuts can be filed under acid disco and are made for heads.

taiki and nulight or to their friends rowan harrington and erka chinbayer have both been djing/producing for many years both in very different circles. taikis career started back in 2008 under his old alias name site 1 who was a house/electro producer. they joined forces and started working together in 2011 which now seems like a lifetime ago considering on what they have achieved in such a short time. when they first started out working together they were making a lot of dubstep, house and electro influenced bass music as we call it now. being heavily into garage, house and electronic dance music there sound heavily progressed across the spectrum of dance music. taiki and nulight released their first ep in february 2012 on subway recordings which gained a lot of support from the likes of mistajam, crookers, herve zinc, redlight, foamo, roska, benga, skream, adam f, hatcha, n type and more. gaining them a lot of frequent airtime on bbc radio 1, 1xtra, kiss 100 and rinse fm. now nearly a year and a half since they have joined forces, they have received massive support from some of the most respected djs out there not to mention air time nearly every week on radio 1 and kiss 100. with their next release on the horizon and due to drop december time 2012 on bengas very well respected label benga beats there is so much more that you will see from these boys and so much new material to hear.

nice price deal !!! as roche, bay area balearic boy ben winans designs long nostalgic nights with no sign of morning. on >a night at the haç<, his keys converse the epic dialogue of classic house thematics: high notes begging romantic love, low notes daring physical freedom. acid alien gears turn >insider outsider< into pivotless progression, straight ahead until the record breaks. side b sees >cg vision< through a fish-eye lens, all underwater bubbles n submarine wubbles as the synthy sea swells. finally, it is hi-hats off to the fx channel in >psycho zombie dreams<, a tunnel trauma of modulated raunch—seductive, intoxicating and mind-munching. haç is boss, now do the work.

to bring you the 8th release, clekclekboom searched far and wide for the elusive jean nipon. their journey took them to the shadowy depths of mystic swamps from where this modern-day druid had to be carefully coaxed into the studio. but trust-us, it was well worth the effort! on his first release for clekclekboom, the institubes original showcases 3 tracks of hard-hitting, deftly-produced, dance-floor menace.

jamal moss is back on morphine, although you wouldnt think it by the sound of these painfully out-there tracks.both tracks clock in around the 13 minute mark and head deep into total-nutball territory. clued up sickness again on this excellent label. tip!

john heckle (undisputed king of da real scouse house and fast becoming one of the most prolific young techno producers from the uk) deviates ever so slighty from his trademark sound to paddle his little raft down the mersey and run wild with the wolves. the result is epic and mystic (and 100% organic) and opens a doorway into a mythical world of wicker men, hill figures, druids, witch covens and early 90s sunrises off the m25, when ever-e-thing seemed possible. excellent new artwork as well by godspill, who is also into naked chicks that float and stuff. a deadly combination!

insubordinate and averse to anything going on in the edm world the dutch derelict of techno is back with a luminous new album on clone records. steamy and mysterious as ever the paranormal soul is advancing the trademark legowelt sound into new directions. mangling up the historical foundations of new york, detroit, chicago and early u.k rave, mixing it with seedy witchcraft rituals and deep space psychedelics for a boundless journey into techno mysticism.

the stereo remastered album on heavyweight 180 gram vinyl.

the >just for fun< ep starts with the title track just4fun, which in fact breathes fun and doesnt take itself too seriously. the funky and highly infectious keys and the butt shaking groove will remind you of a track that moodymann never made, but wishes he had. next comes unlimited01 with a joyful piano melody that would fit right into a french disco with a funkier version of alain delon behind the decks. still, the rhodes chords, the slow sexy groove, the vocal hooks will get you moving in no time. thang then goes into a more detroit beatdown direction with its deep chords and smooth pads. it creates a mellow atmosphere with an almost relaxed summer feeling. this is what a funky pimp would listen to on a night car drive. the ep ends with spiritual almost tribal rhythms. inspiration would be a nice soundtrack to a 70s orgy orchestrated by a groovy guru, surrounded by a magical circle of mystical dancers. over the top? sure, but the track would certainly get this party going.

the very popular shh! label return with 2 very familiar sounding tracks twisted into something fresh and current. pressing on green, transparent 10 inch vinyl.

after what has seemed like 134 years of shame and reluctance of their own release, based on the fact that the unbeat- able thoroughness of the filthy and yet so unintentional live sets of the three fearless brothers schleck^stecker, these old warhorses are back for another round and on the way burning 4 sauna-sweaty, steamy joints into the grooves of the vinyl.

don disco aka losoul! 2012 re-release of two rare & classic tracks produced by don disco aka projam aka lo soul! the whistle song is a collabo with jeremiah, originally out on grow! into the groove was released on the guidance sublabel crucial sounds in 1997!

neues album des mehrfach praemierten, kanadischen indie-folk/alternative-country-trios elliott brood aus toronto, das bereits mit wilco, blue rodeo, corb lund und den sadies auf tour war und mit days into years seinem ruf als vertreter des death country wieder mehr als gerecht wird.

the sailorman ep is probably the most personal in alle farbens discography up to now in which he turns cherished pieces of music history and poetry with great love for detail and transforms them into contemporary club music. with it he shows his preferences for classic singing, lyric, the coast and the sea. through the clash of the unusual alle farben produces again and again a successful symbiosis and creates a unique stimulus. with the remix ep alle farben rallies round a few of his companions oft he last years and a familiar colourful musical mixture came into being.

the rogue cat swings into town yet again for this, the fourth time. in the guise of mislead-back-room-bass-bellowing miscreants, and in-keeping with their ethos of anything-goes-as-long-as-it-blows, rcs step up to the plate with another oddball belter of an e.p. in this excursion, warehouse-warlord the rhythm odyssey teams up with deep house botherer benny upsetter for a dirty and dishevelled dance floor detonation.

ltd nice price copies !!! new project by damian schwartz !!! sam the mummy lives in the deepest catacombs of his existence. hardly ever he can be seen on the surface and just a few ones have the >honor< of knowing him. even stranger it is his relationship with damián schwartz, the only person allowed to listen and disclose his awesome and disturbing works. here is the first one: untitled1 (mupa008). it starts with cradle, a brief but captivating prologue. and from the cradle to the grave, here comes untuned (interview), where sam introduces us in his most personal universe, crumbling his darkest secrets. soon we can see what hes up to, because despite of appearing as a hard and cold guy, on the very first beats he reveals pure soul music. tireless groove with magnificent salsa touches, bittersweet cymbals and congas that run with an intimidating elegance. on b side, pharaon s cat introduces stand up. little by little, it steps into a background of hypnotic and jazzy sequences accompanied by aristocratic piano notes that try to break into, but can only go out on tiptoes. so smart and so danceable at the same time.

bastard jazz is proud to present the debut ep from brussels based production duo eric p & luigi aka monkeyrobot. coming to light through their work as 74 miles away (melting pot music) and tall black guy, who selected their standout >basement infusion< track to be on his tempo dreams compilation album (released in june on bastard jazz), and alliance between the label and m.r. seemed natural.
here on their self titled 12 inch, monkeyrobot deliver four diverse tracks that showcase their skills behind the boards, the keys, with a keen ear for the dancefloor. kicking things off, >brick stomach< is a synth-heavy four-to-the-floor 120 bpm joint that comes off like a floating points visit back in time to 1980s detroit with its rolling snares, arpeggiating synth bassline and cloudy pads. next up, >northern light< filters shimmering space disco vibes through big, thumping instrumental hip-hop drums and moody analog bass. on the flip, >rose gris< takes things in a funkier direction at 100bpm with its syncopated drums, irresistible lead, squelching bassline and all manner of synthesizer explorations. rounding off the ep is >last days<, which still manages to inject a funky 80s analog sound into its melancholy downtempo vibes.

new kanada enters the fall 2012 season with some dark angular acidic house. black and medleys >roll the dice< - featuring the voice of rosina – is an old-school blend of disco, ny house and classic toronto warehouse vibes. slightly acidic, with its bubbling juno bassline – and slightly techno with the driving, repetitive beat – this house track should rock the deepest of dancefloors. file somewhere between henry street and early adonis. 5am - no earlier. for the flipside, adam marshall sits down at the controls for a clinical, tight, stripped-down scrubbing, turning the original into a late-night fear edit. broken, diffused drums and lots of black empty space in this one. the lights go out – blackout.

first scott frasers ep on astro lab , after his recent releases on world unknow and remixes for virgo four we are really proud to have scott on board, the john hughes experience is already supported by andrew weatherall, ivan smagghe, daniel avery and more. on the b-side mark e turned this low techno track into an slow house flavor, something betwwen nu-groove styles and mark e current stuffs.

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?
