the secret gem of space disco vibes, ichisan will be releasing his new ep via kanto records. first track of the ep, megla (the fog) is some sort of an instrument showcase by the slovenian producer, who used his analog synthesizers deftly to accompany the funk-house strumming of his bass and electric guitars, both played by the artist himself. veter (the wind) is a five-minute-long journey into the depths of unique and captivating musical mind of ichisan, daring to be simple yet invoking majestic feelings. third and fourth track of the ep, planica and yassa are more dancefloor oriented tunes that beam with positivity and energy, both have the potential to become anthems of the summer and beyond. arranged, recorder and mixed in ichisans own studio in ljubljana, the ep megla is brimmed with phenomenal beats that would not disappoint even the pickiest ears.

we believe music shouldn not be explained or overanalyzed. we would rather avoid too many useless words. just press play and listen to it.

following his ep for amazing stories, otis makes good on his long time friendship with the partisan crew via four dazzling cuts of future-minded machine funk. from swinging techno to breakbeat and electro, all glued together by that 909 house vibe, the playful side of otis’ unique sound masks an understated swagger that will rock the floor wherever it’s played.

having established partisan with a bedrock of essential talent, anthea steps out with her debut ep. “smile” kicks off the ep with infectious techno, a healthy dose of acid, and funk induced drum programming. “everything is aok” plots a deeper, trippier course with intricate layers of synth and drum patterns to create a truly hypnotic mind and body workout. whilst “nrg for daze” presents the softer side of partisan, bringing gentle pads into the mix without losing the all-important acid undercurrent that makes for such powerful dance floor material. her “state of mind” ep is the perfect statement on where anthea is at on her artistic trajectory, as a producer, dj and label head.

decks tipp!!
ichisan s 2017 aperitiv was so good that we ve decided to return for a second helping from his sumptuous album. four choice cuts have been selected and reworked with a specific instrument focus. the harpsicord version of -hotel- keeps the intoxicating melody of the original but allows beats to relax as notes shine with an incandescent brilliance. drums put their feet up for the rhodes version of -modri tunel.- deep stings and lounging lines mingle in this work of smoke swirling seduction. -kozmetika (trumpet version)- dances to a different tune. rich bass is again central but this time brash and bold brass intertwine with funk filled bars. the last waltz arrives with the piano version of -terminal e.- alluring notes ascend, rising and falling against heartwrenching guitar strings for a finale to end this ballroom inspired beauty.

hear, hear! returns with two pumping house tracks. limited number of copies, do not blink!

game of chance makes for such potent material on the dancefloor. from the funky bleep techno tones of “planet pan” to the dubby immersion of “divenire”, with the snappy shuffle of “any robots here” to the blissed-out pads and snaking beat of “point of view”. this is refined and reduced dance music that radiates warmth and champions groove, subtly preaching positivity in the most elegant of ways.

you never know what to expect from rue de plaisance’s releases.exploring different moods and always looking for special music. we are really excited to welcome the boys from frankfurt. developing their very own sound mostly on traffic records. martyné & jacob chenaux are on fire. it’s a pleasure to deep into their world with this amazing

three, floor-minded tracks bind together to form a mesmerizing groove unlike any other. ranging from the bouncy funk of “scandal,” to the hypnotic broken techno of “time,” to the shuffling trip of “dancemine,” this is a true document of an artist unafraid to offer the full spectrum of their musical personality, with an undeniable compulsion to push forward.

brazillian-born daniela caldellas returns to hotflush recordings with misantropicalia, a three track ep, with each one showing different facets of her influences, further enriching her identity as terr. picking up where last aprils burn the past ep left off, terr continues to develop what is becoming her retro-futurist signature. the unmistakable footprint of electro, as well as a palpable nostalgia for the early 80s, is present throughout. the title track perhaps even betrays a whiff of italo or hi-nrg with its moroder-esque bass and silky guitar licks, before moving into pure body-popping, linoleum dancefloor territory on the b-side. outrun is an invitation to do the robot worm best heard on a portable ghetto blaster, while dont look around rounds off the 12inch in galvanizing style with hints of electroclash in fractured, fleeting vocals and beats of the fat variety. misantropicalia shows terr with her influences on her sleeve, and her gaze fixed firmly forwards

aperitiv cruises with no single style, instead this slovenian synthesist glides and slides through a scatting of sounds. cosmic. house. disco. wave. italo.

welcome to the astral theme. a new art series by virassamy. we are pleased to have ivano tetelepta back on the label. he s a talented artist who makes rare appearances and who doesn t follow any sound of the moment. he s just doing naturally his own thing with subtle class and warm grooves. for this ep ivano has invited his friends for a second shot in a series that started on one of uk s finest labels, fear of flying. passing through different moods and minds this ep will lead you into a fabulous trip. hot wax ! early supports by: raresh, sebo k, bambounou, dyed soundorom, einzelkind, john dimas, martyné, molly, nail, och, seafom, giovanni verrina, yamen & eda, anestie gomez…

fresh back in … ‘limerence’ is not only misantrop’s debut outing, it is also the inaugurating release of his own label foul-up. the sound pops out of an industrial mindset, but the title piece reverses out of garage/classic house that nods to 90s r’n’b. on ‘nocturnal emission’ friend jon marius brogaard aeppli’s guitar solo is vogueing out on the floor, psychedelic rock meets psychotic blues by way of sheer uk sound.

love notes from brooklyn offers up this platter from a very exciting new brooklyn artist, subtenant. as it says on the tin, the artisanal acid ep is heavy on the 303 squelches and emotional content. each track has a unique pairing of soul and heavy acid funk. evergeen soul is the clear lead track here, using a female snippet to keep this otherwise tough little number dancefloor friendly. this track is then reworked by detroit underground darling, d marc cantu, who pitches things up into funky rave territory. the flip side sees the title track feature the most soulful chords on the entire record, and then on the b2 the artist himself takes to the mic on know how it feels. this whole ep feels live and direct from the brooklyn underground.

oshana steps up to deliver the first blow for partisan, a fresh, new imprint. warm melodic tones, bending synths, razor-sharp percussion and noticable grit bind together this dancefloor focused ep. with its fast paced and innovative sounds its a strong step forward for this unique producer and a great start for partisan.

high summer. sun is shining and the bordello is open to newcomers, the latest being slovenia’s ichisan. a 12” that bulldozes barriers, metamundus seamlessly slips between electro disco, braindance acid and gilded funk. writhing 303 jerks are tempered by warm-hearted key changes for the title track, patterns ducking into playful frolics and lush deeps. and this desire to toy with convention is what characterises the ep. bitter chords are sugared, machine grooves with nods to the dancefloors of the 70s, spaceflights with undertones of chicago, ichisan brings all together in a 12” that is as unique as it is addictive.

the tribe has taken a break from the outer space excursions deciding to spend some holidays in capri and where to stay if not at legendary qvisisana?! electronic jazz-funk, maritime vibes, lush and luxurious attitude, this mini-lp consists of mystic jungle tribe s sunset soundtrack, adding a new dock to the early sounds journey around mediterranean sounds.

wc & abono deliver the third instalment for allisandnot. four tracks that span experimental techno and tough house, all sourced from deserts and forgotten lands.

nice price deal !!! another floor burner from the desert!!!!! two of dubais hottest producers team up on this production and the results are doper than dope!!!! haneef raisani teams up with his friend and studio partner pierre guidera on this record to lay down some heavy punchy beats to blow off any sound system and burn the roof with the heat!!! the single was first introduced in the raisani miami sessions compilations and now the 12 release with the jamie anderson deeeeeep remixes which adds up to the heat!!!

for this new release, rue de plaisance opens its doors to a new york city artist we have been following since her debut 3 years ago. she’s developed a very personal, warm and groovy sound on different labels (brouqade, bodyparts) and in her live acts. her recordings have gathered the support of great artists from the scene and it s a real pleasure to welcome oshana.

longstreth lud bombino in sein applehead studio in new york ein, um gemeinsam an “azel” zu arbeiten. und dabei erwies sich longstretherwies als fantastischer produzent. er hat großen respekt vor der musikalischen tradition der tuareg und führte die sessions mit sanfter und geschickter hand. fans von bombino und tuareg-musik werden ein paar bemerkenswerte innovationen auf diesem album entdecken. die erste neuerung ist die einführung eines völlig neuen stils, für den bombino hier pionierarbeit leistet. die sonnige mischung aus blues/rock und einem reggae-onedropandbounce-beat nennt er liebevoll “tuareggae”. eine weitere neuerung ist die erstmalige verwendung von westlichen vokal-harmonien in tuareg-musik-aufnahmen (durch longstreths einfluss), was den songs eine völlig neue tiefe und farbe verleiht. “azel” ist der name einer kleinen wüstenstadt, nur ein paar kilometer von agadez entfernt

out of the depths of the cosmic pint comes a disco release from the alps of slovenia. complete with live bass guitars, sparkling arpeggios and swirling drifts of analogue equipment ichisan and nakova have constructed two beautifully stripped back tracks that chug along like a golden steam engine fueled on chanel no.5. with remixes by ruf dug and jonathan krisp.

rue de plaisances new compilation will surprise you by its eclectism and will carry you away in an ambient gateway where tribal sounds and funk converge in harmony. composed of nine tracks, produced by artists that are appreciated by the label and its owner varoslav, the release reflects the spirit of rue de plaisance and this new double ep tells a story and tries as much as possible to create new paths in electronic music.
after 4 years of activity, this 20th release is an attempt to diversify into new horizons of electronic music as well as exploring our existing sounds through talented artists such as oskar offermann, dop or the parisian 1977... what a shot !
called * le son de rue*, this double ep refers to the youth of varoslav but also to the street he lived in as a child: rue de plaisance. for the 20 release, rue de plaisance and varoslav release an ultimate compilation. a 4th birthday to celebrate in music!

the 19th release of rue de plaisance is made by our french friends from berlin, arcarsenal. the duo, etienne and alan, have released on high calibre labels such as underground quality and finest hour and also run the excellent record shop in berlin. we were seduced by their unique and personal music and we are proud to release such a great ep which showcases their different sounds from ambient to techno. timeless music for your pleasure.

praised by the likes of bjorn torske, pete herbert, prins thomas, lindstrom and todd terje, -mambo- by slovenian igor skafar aka ichisan is going to be the second release on the japan catune imprint.

releasing under the moniker misanthrop since 2002, michael brauningers music reflects a foreboding sense of darkness, something that has been prevalent in his previous releases with the likes of critical recordings, neosignal and subtitles. misanthrop has utilised unfamiliar ways to push the envelope of his twisted, sinister sound for new ep *i need more*.
the automated refrain on *capitalism* reflects the stark coldness of misanthrops work, before unleashing an onslaught of off-beat breaks to display brauningers deft, often unpredictable production style.
*rock n roll*, a more familiar tear-out drum & bass track, bolstered by pummelling percussive flourishes and flashes of distortion throughout.
gaining support from the likes of skrillex, goldie, skream, alix perez and more, misanthrop has spent his 13 year career carving a sound that is wholly realised in this latest release. brutal, uncompromising and inherently forward thinking.

four blown out hardware excursions coming from new imprint allisandnot! moody, acidic machine workouts of the highest order, crunchy percussion and chugging synths meld with woozy pads all covered in hiss and tape flutter. unashamedly raw and straight up bangin !
