vlad dinu opens mihai bravu s 1st release starting the audio journey with deep in my house, a track that occupies the entire a side, just like a proper tool should. as the name of the track hints, we find ourselves submerged in deep territory: a tight and groovy bass line, laced with a steady percussion, sprinkled with some 16bit arcade reminiscent accents and soothing intermingled vocal cuts. the deep vibe is crafty perpetuated by several synths at play, which together combine in such a way to add a wide atmospheric feel to the composition. definitely deep in my house sounds and feels more like of a 90’s tune, and while listening to it, one could easily find himself drift into the nostalgia of the good old days.
side b goes even deeper with two tracks defined by the notion of head tracks. gun zah continues the storyline with twisty percussive rhythms and a groovy atmosphere, tailored into a bangin floor choon while questions answered submerges the listener into layers of groovy basslines, swifty percs and milky synths, all put together into the form of a most alive track.

church start 2017 in familiar fashion, introducing ben hauke to the label.

we are seemingly headed towards dark and confusing times. the tension inside of the people is rising so instead of putting more gasoline to the fire and fueling the rage i submit to you these sounds of peace. not black music or white music. not borders or class. just music. it’s time to stop labeling music, just as it is time to stop labeling humans as 1st class and 2nd class citizens. if you can ignore my broken voice and if you could only look past my music’s imperfections, you would feel me instead of hearing me and maybe then you could get a small glimpse of the hope that the people feel when they are at my concerts and understand the idea that many great men and women before me like bob marley and john lennon had, that we are all one. the idea that had brought hope and countless others. the hope that makes them scream: peace forever. (charles x)

after a year ride between return to disorder, contort yourself and new york haunted, the hamburg based duo fallbeil debuts on death of the machines. tune in the incredible electro/acid razor the healer, also available in the b side with a distorted and industrial influenced version by innsyter aka fernando seixlack, already smashing it for l.a. club resource. the 707-electro-driven extra b side track voice of thunder is completing the pack. just killer. tip!

i admit i wasn’t familiar with this album, so many just pass us by, but as i sat back and listened, i slowly realized that this isn’t just any soul lp, it’s a masterpiece, full of passion and tenderness, it was like a huge hug from long lost lover... beautiful... enjoy it!

“akira put on his sunglasses, jumped onto his red space cruiser and rode away into the triple sunset of beta cephei. in fact, this wasn’t the closing scene of a cheesy 80’s sci-fi, just a normal day in the life of akira, on a distant planet called new tokyo.”

speed boat is eden burns, one half of dunedin house duo sandboards, who brightened up 2016 with heavyweight releases on feel my bicep and cold tonic. splitting off for the first release under his solo moniker, speed boat applies the base coat to new label the nail shop with a gliding four track ep for the imprint’s debut release, that makes the foot-tapping accompaniment to an afternoon waiting for your nails to dry.
the vibe is in the name, as ‘speed tools’ packs a mighty punch, featuring skittering percussion, steady-movin’ bass and infectiously sensual pads that effortless take the forefront. just don’t be surprised if it swoops you straight from the salon onto the dancefloor.

un.t.o.’s fifth release comes from cosimo damiano who delivers a brooding four tracker that leans heavily upon synth melodies and hardcore stylings. the result is an essential experimental techno ep that works just as well at home as it does in the club.

it was such a hot day in may 2014, we all remember, moscoman drop by his home town of tel aviv to do a party with krikor aka crackboy as his guest, they had a few hours to kill just before the gig, mosco rang up his old compadres and brothers in arms red axes, to see what they were up to, they were just hanging at the studio, “we’re coming” he said, and the rest is history, thanks to the taxi driver abed that was waiting downstairs to take them to the gig, they had vocals to finish this track and mosco had the chance to play this track that night already. powered by a uncompromising mix from no doubt one of the best producers of electronic music, roman flügel, and another killer by red axes, not a lot is left to do but wait for this monster record to drop.

stephen brown presents his next new mirage ep for mojuba sub label a.r.t.less. the scotish techno mainstay who just released an ep for the magnificent indigo aera returns after his huge debut illuminance ep with a killer techno tune called 2fm in finest robert hood / m-plant tradition on the a-side! the b-side is a very emotional synth laden track that will work perfectly for those opening or closing set moments when everyone is in the zone, eyes closed floating on the dance floor following the funk created by rhythmic melodies!

phonograph music is back with a 4 tracker by anthropous anonymous. four cuts that embody a poetic approach to dance music, trough deep house, balearic and tribal. a few months ago, in the time and space of a few impromptu sessions, an ep was conceived and produced. not much was planned, but the voice and the keyboard notes our dear brazilian friend roberto coelho hit, gave the whole thing its not so but quite ambiguous form and meaning. soon after that, the music just flowed…

tell (aka milan for the ones who know) is a french producer who did tracks for beat x changers, banoffee pies, house running, nachtbreaker new imprint & just caught the attention of the mighty boiler room. this is his first ep which is in fact a mini lp & it s a fucking killer ! if you like pepe bradock, moodymann & strictly rhythm (so skylax in a way ,-)), this is definitely for you. ultra classy producer on the verge of getting big. we ve been following him for years now (thx to garage shelter / signal st advise) & we won t regret, the result goes far beyond all of our hopes. futur classic. skylax records 4 ever

ten thousand yen is very proud to announce a new signing - rimbaudian, with this stunner of an ep. we first met him at our party in nitsa, barcelona last summer. we loved his meda fury debut and asked if he’d send some tunes our way. by the time we got home, there was a new folder waiting with about 40 tracks from rimbaudian and a certain dj seinfeld. just about every single one was great, a feat we can assure you never happens. this is easily some of our favourite music right now, and we’re stoked to share it with you!

this release - a collaboration between ali x (alphonse from azari & iii) and mexicos theus mago - turns the heat up all the way to on and just leaves it there. the lyrical content of the title track would lead many to use descriptors like sexy, sleazy, and steamy like you wouldnt even believe, and while the music also bears that out its important to remember not to stigmatize something that almost everyone does at least a couple of times a week. vision, meanwhile, offers the perfect b-side accompaniment, a sci-fi techno workout where you dont even have to think about sex if you dont want to. the ep features dub versions of both tracks for more stripped-down club sets aimed at people who understandably have problems with the sound of the human voice. it also includes a remix by curses, whom we recently bumped into (he says cornered) in berlin and asked if hed provide one of his trademark eerie downtempo excursions. long story short: he said yes.

giallo soundtracks, drag queens, psychotropic cacti, back patches, hi-nrg, sunglasses at night, tape echo, jack o lanterns, rave rain: these are just a few of your favorite things that you might find in squirrels on film, the new record label from san francisco veterans solar and brian hock, aka c.l.a.w.s. what youll hear isnt quite techno, house, disco, or dub, but a syrupy melange of all of the above and then some. it s dance music for those who don t fit in and for djs who regard genre as a suggestion, not a rule.

take away presents its first offering - a delicious serving of three tracks delivered straight from the secret kitchen of ajvar soundsystem.

after over 10 years out of press, very limited vinyl re-pressing of the he extremely sought after dj assassin >a face in the crowd< 12 inch on cross section records. a total classic house track from 1998, that sounds even fresher today. the vocal is minimal, yet haunting and the bassline just revs like a an engine, proper house music at its finest.

as yse saint laur ant, ant plate (one half of ever productive duo rhythm plate) takes some time out from crafting refined deep house music to indulge his more wayward tendencies. amongst the music coming to light in this intriguing diversion from a prolific artist is the fantastic just because, which comes on like early wagon christ material with a modern production sheen. space is defunct meanwhile slaps down some chugging 80s flavoured grooves, 2106 reaches for the boogie and dont make me think channels a laid back balearic mindset. it s a mixed bag of a record, make no mistake. that s also what makes it marvelous.

picking up where they left off three years ago, modern heads, the much-respected collaboration between gianluca meloni and dino sabatini, are back with a dynamic and intriguing four track ep. the duo go straight in here with the club-ready athena. throughout this track, tight percussive elements wind in and around one another, creating an ever-changing rhythm that you can only just hold onto. under this, tense synths pulse away, producing an opaque and insular atmosphere. next up, eumaeus lightens the mood somewhat, providing clarity with a distinct opening drum pattern. this mood doesnt last long though, as indiscernible, haunting vocals begin to echo in the distance, gradually moving closer and further in the mix as sharp pads swoosh either side. side b of the record opens with the deepest and longest track of the ep, eurycleia. simple yet unrelenting drums frame this hypnotic sci-fi episode, through which otherworldly screeches and rumbles reverberate over the twinkling sounds of machines. eurycleias atmosphere continues straight into the final track, laertes theme. this beatless piece takes eurycleias exploratory mood and extrapolates it over five and a half minutes, resulting in what feels like the perfect soundtrack to a glacial expedition in alien territory. as an ep this is a complete and coherent package, a perfect extension to modern heads previous work. the sound palette is familiar, yet refined, developed upon and taken further. the old beggar is undeniably worth the wait for anyone with a taste for the extraterrestrial.

every story has an end. but in life, every ending is just a new beginning. life goes on - not always as we envisioned it would be, but always the ways it s supposed to be. remember, we usually can t choose the music life plays for us, but we can choose how we dance to it. make yours a beautiful memory.

koett & wellbeck are back with their second release for pro-tez records. “untitled 9” is a proper skilled brilliant low-slung house composition. with remixes from anton kubikov and xdb, two veterans lay down a lush house groove that s just begging to be played on the dance floor. xdb’s version with sweetly offset dub chords takes us into a club mist of fizzing electronics for a full submerged dub house experience. it is a vinyl only, heavyweight 180 grams pressing, limited to 300 copies.

tikita, the casablanca based label focussed on body & mind music and its fifth offering is from french artist amandra. putting out just one release a year since 2014 - all of them on ahrpe records and with one being a full length - he has fomented a deep acid, ambient and techno sound for back rooms and underground clubs everywhere.

nice price deal !!! he has produced on just about everyone of our favorite labels such as snork enterprises, ware, phil or treibstoff, is a great musician, a superb dj, a label honcho at team and first and foremost: an awesome producer. please meet philogresz.

nice price deal !!! the musical destination goldfish and his dulz wanted to take was set from the very beginning: funky, yet reduced electronic music, delicatly laced with a soft melody. the two wizards had been playing together for just a short while, when the first tracks attrected interest and were released by genre-defining frankfurt based label “playhouse . eps on moon harbour followed, on boxer sport, dance electric and many other labels.

nice price deal !!! manila fine vinyls is the new label project created by shadow sync showing their more soulful side. unlike some minimal fakes you can hear around nowadays, the manila fine vinyls productions have their roots in the original detroit house sound: no frills, no virtual mockeries, just the full and deep analog sound that goes straight to your heart. we care about the substance, not about the decorations! this first release shows the influence of the early carl craig and juan atkins productions and includes two great tunes which have been successfully played for some time across europe. idol, a sweet 90s sounding track has a very characteristic bass line blended with a dreamy pad which opens gradually as long and continues as the song progresses. you will love it! on the flip the feelings, a soulful tune dedicated to all those who are in love for someone: the sweet electric piano chords and strings of the opening are well balanced by the tight bass line and the grooving house beat. let the feelings come up!

nice price deal !!! newcomer ingo thomas provides the next installment on beyond with three very unique, raw and individual tracks on vinyl. the off kilter, deep and detroit inspired ‚ suludada charms and chimes its way down a dusty, richly textured path as the meandering synth themes intertwine and grow throughout 8 and half minutes. painting a mysterious picture of late night abandon, echoes of dark moody club atmospheres and super deep vibes a plenty, its a really stand out track… and the quality doesnt let off here! sweep is another suitably textural offering that lays down tense atmospheric chords and uplifting synth themes from the very start. reminding us of some of the very best deep techno from over the decades, thrown into one giant melting pot of quality, inventive production, it makes us wonder if our man ingo just might be a future electronic music fi gurehead in the making! closing the record we find >hum reprise< whose dubby stabs, tricky arrangement and bad ass reduction all contribute to another wonderful track. certainly intended to play loud, this outstanding piece of other worldly electronic entertainment is yet another reason to remember the name flashnap.

rick wade delivers 3 excellent tracks for people of earths sixth release. escapism is warm, distorted & moody. dark strings, chords & a thick kick with low end that gives subwoofers a work out. stand alone is classic big rick. an anytime house jam, chord changes and drum grooves. just perfect. understand, old skool breaks & sample heavy. a bit of a departure from our norm…and we love it.

cgi records is extremely proud to be presenting the new ep from oakland via-bermuda based artist russell e.l. butler. i m dropping out of life are 4 cuts of essentialist dance music that can provide an ecstatic escape from the drudges of professional life for all who so rightly seek it. as russell himself elaborates, the title has been on my mind a lot, since i almost lost my life in the ghost ship fire and watched as many of my friends lost theirs. i came up with the title several months ago, in fact 2 of the tracks were shopped in a producer s group that johnny (nackt) and chelsea (cherushii) were a part of, both of whom i lost in the fire. this release is about a commitment to life. the life that i refer to dropping out of, is a life where dreams are put on hold, where concessions are made in order to just survive. but that comes at a cost, one that is far too great for me to pay at this point. i wrote this poem, it ll come as an insert with the record.

huge support from jeremy underground / floating points / motor city drum ensemble. huge record if youre into disco, modern or just good fucking music and you probably dont own unless you work in the city or spend half you life looking for it. frazelle is the party record that everyone wants, big support all round on this so dont be waiting around and then email us when they are gone. licensed from ken frazzelle himself which always makes us happy. expect bileo like sales on this so stock up as they will fly

in context of the first record on schleifen, the abstract theme of eternity and decay is made tangible through dedication and love for detail. ravechild seems to grow four distinct pieces out of same roots, just to forge a whole new construct by uniting the individual cuts. tunes made for a variety of moods and situations.

the protagonist of this extended longplayer is the remarkable falke. he is the unseen hermit of the clan and arrested the labels attention due the things he does best: sitting at home collecting cheap ancient technology and creating his own artistic universe, influenced by his distinct sense for the simplistic beauty in everyday life. after two records and several compilation contributions, the label collected ten tracks to introduce his own extensive world properly. post-socialistic aesthetic detects 90s electronica to merge into a careless version of house.

the secret squirrels stash away more of the good stuff to fuel the long winter months ahead for just when you most need it. cut up, sellotaped back together and worked to the max for the dance floor... it s yet another creature that will keep you up all night long. amen.

limited white 2017 repress. amazing peak time monster by sam paganini. we believe music shouldn not be explained or overanalyzed. we would rather avoid too many useless words. just press play and listen to it.

the maverick maestro from the bay dave aju is back with his circus family here with an incredible new release. based on stripped-down hardware sessions rocking just a roland tr-909 and sh-101, aju once again proves that no sound set need be limited in itself and along with the addition of one microphone for his inimitable soulful voice, creates one of his strongest and most imaginative releases to date, the 10101 ep. a multiple homage to the 101 freeway that spans his native golden state and the numeric classic analog boxes used vs digital binary to process them, the four rich tracks offer the best of both worlds and cover all the bases of mr ajus musical multiverse. low dive starts things on a deep heads-down dance floor tip where rising synth lines soar over a blast of shuffling drums and percussion for a rocksolid djs delight. always never comes next with pure aju magic, equal parts song and track, an ear worm of a chorus, and full of sunny west coast electro influences all the way through. on the flip sides may very well be one of ajus most intense transmissions ever, with a sublime and seemingly endless build-up of dark pads, driving, shifting rhythms, and voodoo vocals that will detonate many a peak-hour sound system guaranteed. aju then tastefully finishes with the cool psychedelic mid-tempo bump of tell her why which harks back to his hip-hop roots and wraps up the vibe and elements of the whole ep perfectly. welcome back with a bang brother aju!

a rare vinyl treat from the ever-surprising crookers, this white label 12inch features four tracks that you wont find anywhere else. full of seriously infectious melodies, and equally infectious house beats, crkrs 001 is for those that enjoy a very eclectic style of house groove. always on point with his productions but never one to take either a deadly serious or a formulaic approach, crookers four tracks on the ep have distinctly different flavours while remaining true to his subversive style. lead track innocent kicks things off with a statement beat, cutting through the quiet with minimal percussion. building a patchwork of loops and hooks, the track develops intelligently accompanied by baxters soaring vocals. thats just the beginning for crkrs 001, next track regular sunday introduces one of crookers signature minor chordal arrangements, then the return and drug dealer judgment toy playfully with unexpected vocal samples. grab one of these strictly limited edition run of 200 copies before they get snapped up.

four intense and explicit tracks from the darkest vaults of oblivion. made to meet your higher self in a spiritual surrounding of non physical yet illusional vibrations. lol just kidding - but still, some serious low end hammering going on here.
