- catapulted into the public consciousness by beth ditto, kiddy smile seeks to spread the retro love in his beats - all of which he produces, sings and sometimes even raps over himself. deeply influenced by the sleazy, lazy feel of 80s and 90s house music and the fabulous legacy of the ballroom scene, he has performed live alongside the likes of hercules & love affair and the gossip. through his own music and performances, kiddy has kept the nostalgic sounds of the dancefloor very much alivebio : via his extravagant persona and good music, the parisian producer kiddy smile gets great coverage in the music world, but also fashion (he s the sound designer for balmain, and spins for the like of alexander wang, balenciaga shows etc.) and queer community.it s impossible to dissociate his music with what he represents today in the gay and voguing community and many filmed / photographed features celebrating diversity have highlighted kiddy smile in them.

matthew dears audion project stands proudly at the intersection between art and hedonism, realised over a decade long dedication to powerful and relevant dance music. growing out of the vibrant diy detroit underground, audion and his contemporaries were free to feed off the energy reverberating from uk and european dancefloors, but singular in their desire to create their own sound and spirit. an audion release is techno in its purest sense - whether its pushing the bombastic limits, spinning the dancefloor out of control or elegantly toying with just a few sonic elements.

cliff has clearly been smoking something special. all it takes is one of his richest efforts to date, and that’s saying a lot coming off a consistent roll of terrific releases. a-side devotion answers the ep titles question with a masterclass in heavyweight groove-building. its an instant cult anthem, gritty but buttery compression, warm, wet bass, driven forward by stoner-friendly organ solos and the vocal call. its a perfect afterhours gear-shifter, squelching with the sweat of one hundred thousand hours of studio jamming and countless seasons of acid. bring raw authenticity to any dj set. this is dance-floor tested, trainspotter approved.

jerome hill returns to super rhythm trax with four tracks displaying one of his biggest influences that of mid nineties chicago labels like relief and dance mania. its time for the has been slaying crowds for the last year with its own no nonsense take on cajmeres much sampled perculator track. a hefty dose of fun and playability is injected into this ep and all 4 tracks are designed for maximum body jacking and involuntary head nodding, each bringing something a little different to the table. support coming already from : annie mac/radio 1, justin robertson, john heckle, ben sims, mark archer, perc, groove armada, jd twitch, locodice, dj tlr, craig richards, wncl, james ruskin, pangaea, phil kieren, lukes anger, posthuman, bleaching agent

following up on his exceptional 12&#8243,,,, debut numb (figure 73) earlier this year, seatoc mass delivers another ep of finely tuned and highly diversified techno deep space explorations. starting on an atmospheric note, cipher’s intricate melody winchingly twists its way under your skin while airy breakbeats faintly hint at the producer’s uk roots. in contrasting fashion the bleep- driven lost lakes sticks to its metronomic stomp, making for a simple yet utterly effective tool. choral howls and detuned synths merge on transform for a gentle yet trance-inducing introduction to the flipside. emotive highlight rain then sees the manchester producer sonically recreate a thundering storm, complete with flashing strokes of lightning and a downpour of celestial scale. the breakbeat returns on closer flying buttress, albeit now at much faster tempo, exploring the common ground between futuristic grime and techno. blending all these different styles and their distinctive tropes in a coherent statement is a feat not easily accomplished. yet here seatoc mass pulls it off again, developing further the confines of both his personal and the label’s sound.

2015 was probably the busiest of my career, during the course of the year i lived many hours of flights and delays at airports, stayed at hotels with wonderful views immersed in nature and others, on the contrary, very urban. i must admit that many of these scenarios were the kick start of the creative process of oscillators ep. this is an ep conceived strictly for the dancefloor, and its creation was a perfect combination between air and land, as all the tracks began on a plane and were developed on land. a very important part of the creative process when youre working on a track is the mood youre in, and there is always an extra excitement before, during and after each show, the space where you work. i take advantage of that moments and translate those feelings into music. - flug

with the ep mental scapes, alva shows a first short format resolutely house. every track is an evolution, a progress. downtown - with its rhythmic part supported by the disco and deep atmospheres - is reminiscent of the influence of the 90s french house on the duos tracks. the shore is a very deep production with a groovy and a minimal bass, with these incisive hi hats and rides, and this sensual vocal. lighthouse uses several musical registers between techno, soul and ny house. the outro, playground, recorded in one shot, is a short downtempo track to enclose in a groovy way this first ep from the parisian duo.

its been a couple of years since classic released an original artist album, the last one being luke solomons critically praised timelines. this time round classic brings a relative newcomer into the fold. eli escobar has slowly been building a credible reputation out of his home in new york, releasing his first single back in the late nineties and moving more recently from hip hop into dance music. as a dj, he harks back to a golden era of disco and early house music, graduating through the 90s during which he was brought up on a diet of underground house including classics early output. in recent years classics head was turned by his wonderful album up all night that was released on night people, a label from new york that eli (pronounced el-ee) has a vested interest in. following up the album with a series of singles, the label swiftly became a cult dance classi

lost spaceship lok44 returns to its home planet, and it has been mightily upgraded with alien bass technology since dropping ghetto of the mind and derailed on trust over 10 years ago. bous is a vigorous comeback, touching on lean and mean electro funk, broken house, and hypnotic outer-orbit bleeps across its four tracks. lucky owners of bous s two highly sought-after precursors will recognise common stylistic threads spanning the decades, but just as before, lok44 prefers to veer off on tangents, sketchily exploring unknown bass music quadrants. second release in the covert systems series, limited quantity.

blacksilk finally unveils the first issue, shedding light on its founder s darkest moniker. taking shape as a multi-disciplinary project, the record label founded by the dj and producer marc ash aims to bring out the best of yet hidden experimental and obscure electronic acts. this challenge is achieved by pushing the boundaries between art and music, conveying a strong message with a well defined aesthetic imprint and therefore employing unconventional art pieces into release-specific imageries.

the flawed wonders that yair elazar glotman puts forth on his latest opus i know no weekend are the coldest dreams you would ever wish to immerse yourself in. they recall echoes of echoes, forced into slowly struggling shapes, ghosts of memories, whispers of life from another dimension. shamanic-repetitive beats shift slowly beneath echoing bells and fragments of past transmissions. overwhelmingly, one is taken into upon a winding mental path, with no clear resolution in sight, although the journey is ever-evolving and new.

vinyl 7- edition of 150 housed in uv printed sleeve. the album is the result of a double consideration travelling on a parallel path. on one hand the sensation evoked by dissonant organic sounds merged into patterns and chaotic structures,on the other hand its connection with the exploration of the concept of propaganda, with its adaptive and unstable nature, its relationship with the concept of privacy and its application in everyday life in the digital era. the two tracks, non sono un criminale and non ho niente da nascondere, are composed by a loop structure in order to emphasise the sensation of anxiety and confusion, the melodic changes are introduced by the use of pronounced reverberations, especially in non sono un criminale

poker flat recordings offers up another mouthwatering collaboration in the form of this ep by mennie and julien sandre. mennie hails from italy, and had fast been gaining a serious reputation on the underground, both as a resident at club 999 in his home country and as a talented up and coming producer. teaming up here with the frenchman julien sandre, this is an international project that will hit home with djs and house lovers globally. the night riots ep kicks off with partitions, which sees the boys in sparkling form - twisting and teasing a sick groove out of fairly simple sources.arth j follows a similar path the devil is in the detail, and mennie and sandre get down to some serious beat science, punctuated with some subtle chords and vocal stabs in the process. in a pixel world’ reveals the pair’s love of classic chicago vibes distilled though french touch, bringing in a super funky groove filtered though various effects and processes, and paying homage to the timeless sounds of early daft punk. ‘no more closes out the ep with a yet another weapon - a ray of house sunshine that skips along on a fidgety beat offset by filtered strings and chopped up vocal stabs. its got summer written all over it.

work them records founder spencer parker presents the first in a trilogy of releases as brotherhood. the brotherhood moniker was originally coined as a way of differentiating parker s berghain appearances from his panorama bar appearances, hence why this series under the alias will be concentrated on techno. thudding kicks and eerie atmospherics pave the way in chapter one - a physical techno number that warps and changes throughout its almost 8 minute duration. chapter two then employs a twisted melody that works alongside a remorseless low-end throb until chapter three concludes the package with punchy percussion and echoing effect

strength lies in calmness – and vice versa. marcel fengler returns on imf and offers three new inspirited musical pieces that protrude from the club context just as well as cater for your home stereo, picking up on the diverse musical moods defined by his debut album fokus (ostgut ton, 2013) while concentrating on intertwining sound aesthetics. with “kyu” laid out on the a-side, this new 12- starts off with a delicate yet muscular floor-pleaser – its subtle 4/4 rhythm is counteracted by lush claps on 2/4, but the true finesse comes in form of its varying rhythmic details, crisp hi-hats and underlying, subtle melodies, most notably the twirling organ trills, sustained synth pads and alienated shout outs. “shitau” on b1 picks up on these introverted and adoring musical moods with more organic bell percussion and swelling synth layers adding a more cinematic touch to the complex rhythm patterns—then pausing for a short dreamy break, gaining speed again before culminating in a grand finale. “zen” follows up with intimate string arrangements until fengler varies the tone and tempo with tribalist percussion and a lush kick drum. this ep is an ideal companion, whether you re pruning your bonsai or branching out a club set.

berlin duo soukie & windish are releasing their second long-player work ‘loom’ on their home label ‘ursl records’ this coming may. an album for the moment, looming its way through our moves with its dreamy, escapist moods. loom carries accents of dirty micro-pop while managing to be both upbeat and deep simultaneously. it is an album of tension — pushing out through every carefully selected drum and every distant, distorted synth line. it marks the moment when you decide not to go home.

lovers rock recordings celebrates its tenth release with another lush compilation featuring tracks by three core members of the lr family and newcomer gunnar haslam. opener “vacation” by ital sees the label boss crafting a supple dj weapon out of a lysergic sonic ecosystem. the rapidly-maturing dj wey returns to the fold under his dj python alias with “amazonia,” an ambient bomb that allows a deceptively simple hook to lilt across a thumping reggaeton rhythm. gunnar haslam makes his lr debut with “vector no campo,” blending modular acid and perfectly crunched electro drums. finally sleeper cell close out with the shimmering, haunting “v.” the first lr release of 2016, lr no.10 exemplifies the label’s ethos and sound while pointing to the future, with eps by ital & halal, yoshinori hayashi and others slated for later in the year.

the band: a french trio called france, using drums, bass and amplified hurdy-gurdy. they perform only live, in the middle of the audience - turned in to face each other - full on smoke machines and strobes. and they play only one song for the duration of their hour-long set. and its the most transfixing live experience of intense physical and mental focus. the distorted hurdy gurdy plugs frances sound into the countrys history of folk music and popular festivities, of communal trance and immersive pleasure.

ltd summer 2016 deal.. its a really clever go lucky move that the never resting glückskind founders michael klang and jürgen kirsch got samuel knob on board. the valencia-based producer really knows how twist those knobs to come up with the craziest noises. his skills, honed during his residency times at barraca music and narita club, are perfectly put into use with this crafty release that should have people dancing on the roof tops--naked. samuel, a drummer who jumpstarted his musical career at the age of sixteen in a pop-rock band, is exploring the outer realms of percussive beats, incorporated in a tight yet not at all minimal sounding house construct. inspired by his father who is also a drummer and programmer, he does not hesitate to foray into unknown dimensions, making this eleventh glückskind release a very special piece of black gold

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.

pure worries from leipzig — three club burners steeped in detroit traditions, distilling the explorations in collective, nervy hypnosis of km live sets. as the music slowly unfurls, there he is at every turn, subtly tweaking its parameters, redistributing its weight, pricking its grooves into a state of utterly infectious perpetual movement. the two visions of chilazon track opposite pathways: the first is twelve minutes of gorgeous, dubwise, aquatic techno, spattered with kicks and razor-sharp hi-hats, and smeared with ghostly echoes, then a terse mesh of broken drums, escalating to a quiet yet feverishly intense peak. lanthanum is calligraphic swordplay, its toms and bass stabs warily circling one another in a graceful steppers’ dance, spaced-out and fathoms-deep

mijo aka la royale, aka one half of moon runner and many more is back! its been a busy couple of years for mijo. countless remixes, productions, tours, multiple releases as well as taking care of his excellent record labels disque discos and electrique music. with simplicity and strength, title track proximo berlín has become one of the head tracks of the new latin american techno sound, one that mijo helped define with his side projects moon runner and la royale. próximo berlin has a very impressive remix from rex the dog, who delivered a stunning, seven minute long, techno rollercoaster. 110%. b-sides cheaptron and circulate are also some of our favorite mijo tracks ever. the simplicity and magnetism of those rhythms shake bodies insistently

chilean born and berlin based dinky has forged a solid and illustrious career over the past decade. ‘casa’ announces her new album set for release on damian lazarus’s crosstown rebels this autumn, with remixes from axel boman and satori. a trained classical guitarist, singer and keyboard player that has held a dj residency at berlin’s infamous panorama bar since 2004, dinky’s sixth album, also titled ‘casa’ will be the first since the birth of her two children.’ dinky’s delicate vocal on ‘casa’ is both up-tempo and spacious, with infusions of acid, leftfield and electronica in its veins. axel boman delivers a stunning, emotive and epic nine and a half minute dub version, overlaid with spoken word samples referring to lost experiences. the swedish born producer is much-lauded for his releases on dj koze’s pampa, permanent vacation and his own imprint, studio barnhus, formed with kornel kovacs and petter of border community. while the hedonistic take from satori takes ‘casa’ up beyond the horizon. a future crosstown rebels artist, satori has released on 8bit, under your skin and bla bla records. ‘casa’ sees a return to form for dinky and a welcome return to the crosstown imprint, after previously releasing a single and a mix album for the pioneering label.

first second label is proud to present its second and forthcoming 12” from canadian duo minimal violence. four rowdy house and techno excursions that move from rolling synth melancholia to full blown, tape saturated work outs. rough around the edges and ready to tear holes in anything that crosses it’s path.

crosses genre to find its own space, & soundscapes, downtempo, ambient, & house music all find a place. the record flows like a vague narrative, a non-specific sort-of passage, a meditative jazz-house trip.

with the new sublabel ourselves established under the roof of the well-known o*rs crew from leipzig, a new label has been launched which can without a doubt be called a matter of the heart. production, graphic design, promotional shipping, in leipzig truly every single step remains within the family. with the now appearing compilation imagination the newly born baby ourselves directly presents itself in the best possible light. kicking off the sampler is düsseldorf-based artist sello. the house track characterized by its analog drums, deep chords and snotty bassline completely places his bet on deepness. in his very own catchy way, it sure is the perfect entrance into the musical debut. the second track of the release, a collaboration of jan ketel and his partner in crime siggatunez, shines through its very dynamic and driving buildup. the title being a graceful tribute, it carries the name of the eponymous berlin club farbfernseher. nevertheless, such a warm and dreamy house track might as well serve as the perfect commendation for the first open airs of spring. the flipside impresses with a ruff and dirty club track by berlin-based producer braunbeck, which self-ironically manifests itself particularly through the self-recorded vocals. as a true humorous banger, the track adds even more musical depth to the already outstanding release. the completion of the compilation and therefor also the most technoid track of the release is contributed by perel. a tool-like classic, standing out through its massive kick and hi-hat called felene hischer. nasty, groovy and timeless, just how we like it!
