sometimes the right things just fall into the right place and so it happened with an old track by thomas p. heckmann under his drax disguise, named section 2. originally released as techno s first ever 7inch, it was very popular in 1993 and paved the way for the huge follow ups like drax three -phosphene and the hugely influential and successful drax ltd.ii - amphetamine.

to rack & ruin comes thundering your way slap bang in time for summer courtesy of our italian disco brother in arms dj rocca and his compardre n2b. the usual high standard of sounds are as present as ever on the 6th instalment of our edits and reworks imprint. get up hits you with a rolling bassline that brims with plenty of pant flapping groove & wah wah guitar licks before that ever so familiar vocal kicks in for a full on reggae disco workout. weird safari certainly lives up to its name - a stripped back, dark & almost techno sound, alongside tinkering percussion and spaced out wild animal noises surely make for a weird safari. dubby pino has you from the off, all the foot stamping & money shaking elements are present - hooky guitar, fat bass loop, infectious percussion, soulful vocal licks and a gorgeous little piano break. mr rossi’s backpain starts off by getting the award for the best song title we’ve ever had on rack & ruin, but as well as that it’s in the proper groovy dance floor tackle category with a bassline & guitar that commands your respect and then when the 4/4 kicks in at 1 min, well just have a listen.

andré winter delivers his second exclusive ideal audio release – dogma. it is dark, it is hypnotic, it is what we call modern techno music. on the a-side you can find the original, which amazes with the number of sequences, which mr. winter twists and turns.beats and rhythms clash one after the other creating a mysterious and threatening, yet curious atmosphere. just close your eyes and enjoy the mood ride. the b-side offers pan-pots treatment of the track. the remix is massive, somewhat housier and brings exciting sound effects to the surface. great work

after his successful 3 track 12 inch release on prspct xtrm last year we just had to bug this industrial hardcore master for another release... and boy did he deliver! 4 hardcore masterpieces ranging from full on industrial hardcore to schranz to more cut up experimental kicks & snares. this release has it all!

peeps, this release is something special. catalogue number 004 will only be available on vinyl - limited to 200 copies. ante & michal met several years ago, and have since taken on the world hitting some ace parties and eventually joining forces in the studio. the result was 2 house music tracks par excellence, combined with a remix by the peruanian and get physical artist israel vich. just to show their love to the black gold, ante & michal printed all covers by themselves. they generated 200 unique copies, which are waiting to be dropped on the turntables. now get in everybody, as the doors are closing and we re getting ready for departure...

a less than prolific, but very highly regarded outlet comes into the all ears fold for their fourth outing this time around a friendly trio unites for the production work. mancunian chum haners puts some deep body and soul into things and grabs the spotlight on the a, and there aint no denying it is well deserved.

as our true fans know, every now and then we leave our comfort zone to bring something else than techno. this season, we gave dib from italy the honor to be the unusual one. three tracks, three times basic, stripped down house that does well as a tool or a track in the early or deep hours of the night. or just for those people working hard at the office and wanting some deep house during their officework. all tracks have a very old skool vibe to it and breathe true deep house: not the filtered down vocal kind, but the breed that just lets a 909, 808 shine and some rhodes or warm analogue synths do the work. the first one is rather detroitish - with a nice acid stab and some strings setting the mood, the second one is more dance floor oriented and the third version is a bit of both. does it need to be said that dimitri andreas mastered it again? and that it is available on vinyl?

tomorrow is now, kid! returns just in time for summer with a collection of tracks taken from a reel of tape. in my ghetto is the debut ep of anthony brooklyn, who has crafted four jams in spirit of the roughness of new york citys famous borough, brooklyn.

hidden away on a dat tape since 1997, 8 raw cuts from house legend nail are now being released as a limited pressing, individually numbered double pack vinyl. shabby doll records co-founder matt swift, who managed nail throughout the nineties, and along with charles webster ran remote records, found the dat in a box of tapes at his house when looking for something entirely unrelated. result. only one of the trax, brothers & sisters had previously ever seen the light of day. an edited version was released in 1998 on matt and charles s remote record label. shb012 will hold the full unedited version of brothers & sisters, along with all 7 other trax from the dat, exactly as they were left in 97...

a careful work, a well illustrated journey, where the four cardinal points are 4 originals marked by a bass line sound that seems to come from a tb 303 just dusted off by a deposit of mr. ikutaro kakehashi .

at its very first start, the new label founded by conrad van orton proposes a vinyl of his own with two original tracks on the a side, november and captivity archives. and two great remixers such as vsk and the mysterious annuled user on the other. just as the needle starts to mark the passage, the classic four quarters give life to a beat that between one step and another compresses catapulting reality in a classic industrial scenario of mid-autumn where the clear sky gets marked by black and deep plots. a background noise accompanies the whole programming part of the drumming that gives off a relentless pace. on the a side captivity archives reconfirms the industrial nature of cvo with a look towards distant galaxies ..... with the needle still hot we turn around the record to the b side. here we find the vsk remix with a more ambient and crystal clear sound. to the original drum, vsk, choose an equally technical percussion. all home made. last but not least the contribution given by annulled user. trademark? techno! .. and there is nothing here to mess about with. 4/4 dry, hard which feel anger and rebellion desire. the kick, fairly present, is ripped apart by some demonic filters. the 5.30 min of annulled user are a reminiscence of the 90s.

we are celebrating 50 release on local talk and what better way to do it than welcome alexander lay-far, the moscow-based dj and producer to the family.

deepblak chief connoisseur damon bell returns with more cali infused dance-floor vibes on his teph-tep ep. smooth yet driving teph-tep pulls you into the center of damons grooves, and textures. as with previous releases the emphasis lay in damons arrangements that can power the dancefloor, and sit just as comfortably in headphones. teph-tep sets the stage for damons forthcoming debut lp coming fall 2014 on deepblak.

just over a year since the inception of weekend circuit, weve been embracing the fact of already inviting some of technos most established artists alongside new talent from all over the world leading up to the 6th release on the label. dax j, hubot, coldgeist & rommek have led the line, also welcoming the likes of jonas kopp, developer & adriana lopez to the label providing stand out remixes.

the debut album by synthek & audiolouis can be seen like a precious gathering of different approaches to techno, made in order to create a meaningful and elaborate piece of work. the opening tracks miasma and intro:spection are just a glimpse into the atmospheres which costantly surround the whole album. strong rhythmics and overwhelming soundscapes never abandon the ears, modulating intensity and brightness along the journey through a sea full of dark acid waves. unwise is a bold sequence of powerful tracks devotedly written for the dancefloor, but still keeps a certain emotional aspect made of few melodic detroit-rooted cuts, standing as a tribute to the authors primary inspirations.

friendship has always been one of the biggest gifts in my life. and everybody should have at least one true friend - and should be happy with this. this gift is one of the most precious - without a price tag. so if you didnt speak to your real friend or friends for a while - why dont you just take your phone and call him or her and say how important this friendship is to you?

boskas british funk museum article no. 808 (barn 013) was a track that just had to be released on green vinyl, one of the finest examples of norwegian neofuturistic anglofilia ever and still very much a staple of our dj sets. were no dummies at barnhus hq, so of course we’ve been planning a full boska release on the label ever since we put out bfman808 back in 2013. almost exactly one year in the making then, santa cruz ep arrives. four slices of that fresh, clean, bass-heavy and totally melancholic scando-house we know you love.

the idea behind lbl is very simple. we keep getting sent music that we really want to own on vinyl, so weve decided to start pressing these tracks ourselves. everything we have scheduled has a club feel, but past that we think youd be hard pushed to pinpoint a specific style which dominates our releases. for our first release we have music from scott fraser (crimes of the future), people get real (join our club), jamie blanco (ess o ess) and joonipah (nixwax). we could list a whole load of meaningless genres to describe the music to you (machine house, neu acid, bashment techno and hi tek soca) but we think its best you just listen and make your own mind up. currently, all lbl releases will be limited to a pressing run of 300 copies

saves *monsters and fairies* is an abandoned hotel room located somewhere between england and spain. it is real for some while for others it is just a fantasy. who knows?
it is in this exact same place that the american singer/vocalist craig louis higgins jr.

7 years after the last zhark vinyl release, heavyweight techno nihilist & labelhead kareem opens up another chapter of advanced technoid noizcore with his 11th full length ep on zhark. after a few years of silence kareem had just reemerged with releases on foundation sonore (fs 01), porto ronco on death of rave or mesmer on zhark digital but is now threatening to inspire more uncompromising percussive hostility. let this just be the beginning: whereas side a emphasis on a very distinguished dance floor groove concept of machine funk embedded in metal layers side b leaves room for a less formatted approach building up tension which is leading to a free firezone of depravity. while methodic differentiations can be discovered on each side, the listener is continously confrontated with haunting sonic extremism.
pressing on dark red coloured and black marbled vinyl.

the last few years have seen chicago footwork rise to international success, and traxmans debut album - *the mind of traxman* on planet mu - played no small part in that. it showcased cornelius fergusons brilliant ability to synthesise the beat digging of classic hip hop with the high-speed abstraction of footworks house-derived beat science. the selection of tracks on this second chapter show a slightly different take on traxman s abilities. instead of bringing in concepts from other genres, he simply creates a wider variety of footwork, made with a minimal, reduced palette. often just one or two samples are selected and diced into brain-blurring cubist puzzles that bear little relation to their original sources, or anything else for that matter.
the double vinyl lp comes with download code.

with the manuel tur lp es cub just about to drop we present you djs and vinyl aficionados with the first of two separate 12 inches highlighting manuels brilliant third album.
