2018 repress - standard cover ... us born and meanwhile in berlin residing kevin mchugh aka ambivalent presents his cocoon recordings single debut. ambivalence seems to the be the musical direction here. daylights is a sheer technomonster, musclepacked and full of dark detroit flavour but the used vocal samples and the harmonic synthstrings cant hide the magic touch of daylights. although the massive techno bassline is the star of this track we are sure it will find its way into the sets of many house djs, too. in contrast to that “swung out” appears way more like pure techno and cannot be filed as house at all. we are hypnotized by the shuffled rim shots and hi hats and ambivalent drives this one straight through the dub universe. techno is the destination and the dark vibe of swung out makes it a perfect after hour weapon.

15th release of the strong barba records! and its fbk who s back featuring a remix by none other than claude young - a detroit heavy-weight who s been particularly selective with his output. kevin s previous record for barba, a 2016 twelve titled -screaming her name-, also featured a remixes by terrence dixon and plural. between then and now kevin managed to put out a track for -the cast project- va and a solo ep for radio slave s rekids imprint.

the bug goes head to head with burial for two bass-bin heaters that is flame 1, cementing the first release on his freshly formed label pressure. following on from the bug’s recent sidewinding 12 inches for ninja tune and a colossal album recorded with earth, fog / shrine is possibly kevin martin’s most soundsystem decimating collaboration yet, joining forces with the most elusive figure within the uk underground and hyperdub mainstay, burial. ‘fog’ rolls along at half-speed steppers tempo, submerged deep within the roots n future aesthetic of the bug’s signature beats, yet perfectly balanced by burial’s hollowed out and haunted night vision. ‘shrine’ delves deeper inwards with the beats slowed to a crawl, the bassline hanging heavy in an atmosphere thick with smoke. the vinyl comes in thick grey card discobag with download code included.

following two sought after, sold out 45s on the label, kevin hendrick’s m i d d e x project releases it’s debut lp for mid-february and right from the off this is no everyday minimal synth project. 10 brutally sharp, icily industrial, analogue synth blasts which tip their hat to those hugely influential days in the late 70s where across the uk, tiny pockets of forward thinking, electronic experimentalists were creating groundbreaking, analogue electronic music, under the radar from almost all, unknowing at the time of course about their impact even to this day. limited edition of 300 numbered copies.

an essential 2 x 12- overview of some of the legendary frankie knuckles trax classics.
what else needs to be said? one of the godfathers of our scene, a true classic himself, frankie behind the wheels or behind the boards was simply top shelf all the way down the line. a real original whose influence and touch can still be felt today. his releases on trax at the time were the hottest things ever and they still resonate on the dancefloor today with equal measure. featured here are some of the best tracks fusing frankie s love of disco, euro-pop, italo and more produced in his initial mid to late 80 s golden period. cuts like baby wants to ride , bad boy and more, featuring the unmistakable vocal talents of the equally legendary jamie principle. it s all here. the perfect starting point for those who have recently discovered the man and his body of work, or equally as stimulating for those who wish to have some classics in their collection. each track is a classic, each one stands up today and effortlessly rocks the club. remastered in conjunction with trax, repressed from the finest audio sources available. often imitated, never replicated!

the fourth release on trevor jacksons pre- label is by skull. a visceral journey into experimental noise and no wave avant grade beatscapes the last skull release snapz appeared on jacksons own output recordings label in 1999. a seminal collection of tracks that had previously featured on the first two legendary mo wax headz compilations (also featuring autechre, beastie boys, air, and dj shadow) as well as tracks that had also appeared on kevin the bug martins notorious macro dub infection albums during the mid 90s. reactionary sonic statements aimed at the coffee table world of trip hop, fuelled by his dissatisfaction and dissillustionment with hip hop of the time, trevor pushed himself into uncomfortable and far more extreme areas than he had before, areas he felt unable to explore with his underdog productions, which were mainly being utilised for major label remixes at the time. influenced as much by the industrial pioneers, post punk and new wave of the past as the burgeoning post rock scene in the mid 90s, this new set of previously unreleased recordings originally produced between 1996-2000 are equally as intense and visceral as the early releases. dusty samples, raw beats, tape loops, and primitive effects combine to sound as relevant now as when they were initially created.

name kicks off his side effects ep with the title track, a deep chugging workout that wouldn t have been out of place on jamie thinness seminal deephouse label season back in the 90s. there s more classy deephouse on offer with clos des trams , a lush affair based on a deceptively simple bassline and samplework that would do st. germain proud. flip over for nobody , a fine slice of moody basement beatdown, and finally vibraphone bowed , a peaktime stomper with todd terry-esque beats and kevin yost-like xylophone lines.

kevin saundersons kms imprint is a label that should require no introduction. the motor city label has been a techno mainstay since its inception in 1987. numerous detroit luminaries have released classic after classic on the labels hallowed grooves over the last 25+ years and its influence is still felt in contemporary dance music today. the idea behind the kms origins series is to shine a light on the lesser known cuts in the kms vaults as well as the classics that have given the label it s legendary status during its lifetime.

sa-ha-ra are a london based writing and production team led by peter hinds keyboards player of uk funk outts light of the world, incognito and beggar & co. with partners steve sinclair and kevin ellis they wrote and produced the enduring club classic “love so fine”. this 9 track vinyl album for 2017 includes tracks which expand on the sa-ha-ra sound and includes dance, soul and funk.

with their 4th release, blaq numbers welcomes jesse bru on their original imprint - bringing you a solo ep full of pure blaq gold! the title track was also crowned by a heavily jazzed up remix from folamour - we hope you enjoy this release just as much as we do!
early support by: sampling as an art, jaques renault, roman rauch, kevin over, loz goddard, black loops, cinthie, m.ono, jad & the, seb wildblood, baldo and many more...

time for something a little different from public release.
eye o is the convergence of a few bay area stalwarts—kevin woodruff, formerly of tussle, and jason schwartz - and “deux o & debut” is their first studio-recorded public offering. the five-track, fifty-minute- long lp is a weaving journey through a pastiche of styles that’re all nephews, cousins, brothers, sisters of one another. kraut-rooted motorik drums reconfigure into more complicated math-y patterns, razor-sharp dance-punk guitars stretch out and dissolve into dubby post-rock atmospherics, synth loops you’d more commonly find in house tracks get grafted onto fuzzy psychedelic breakdowns, hard rock licks lock into chunky industrial grooves.
less for dancefloor destruction and more for trippy weekenders, the instrumental record manages to both be a focused, cerebral, conceptual hunk of fat to chew on and a spaced-out, intuitive ride through the cosmos. for use during those off-kilter small hours of the night just as much as it is vision quests and introspective weekends. it’s rare that an outpouring of so much can feel so simple and sublime.

marlon hoffstadt is a rising star as both a dj and producer, effortlessly joining the dots between classic rave and the future of techno. taking a break from running his retrograde label, marlon has cooked up observing the known for ransom note records. over three tracks of warm synths, bubbly acid and emotional chord progressions, the ep sees marlon reimagining house music for todays dancefloor, taking the passion and energy of ‘80s chicago and giving it the production heft of 2017 berlin. opener ‘floating’ is a piano house classic, shot through with chimes and 303 gurgles, nostalgic for a golden age whilst optimistically looking forward. this is peak time house for dancefloors with heart. it’s followed by the computerised funk of ‘arp+’, an acid house roller that teams jacking 303 bass with mournful strings, as sorrowful as it is uplifting. b-side opener ‘batavus’ is a driving tribute to detroit, kevin saunderson-esque keys stabbing over soaring washes of synth, the sound of late nights and starry eyes. london-based scott fraser has added a remix of arp+ that takes marlons classic techno to darker lands, with snapping electro drums and deliberately seasick bass pressure ramping up the claustrophobia. this mix has already been causing huge damage when dropped on dubplate at fraser’s feted body hammer night.

for this introduction release from orange woodmachine, keon sakari drops three techno cuts that make no compromise whatsoever. ranging from the more dubby, driving and hypnotizing fused and alter ego to the spooky disrupt , this ep will make minds and bodies melt on the dancefloors. supported by grrove armada, joyce muniz, monty luke, ashworth, alkalino, acid pauli, john digweed, chris fortier, carlos valdes, kevin mc kay, rui da silva, john osborn, carlo, asa808, iron curtis, paco osuna, marco carola

soul jazz records’ new space, energy and light is a collection of music by early electronic and synthesizer pioneers (from the 1960s through the 1970s), mid-1970s proto-new age gurus and 1980s guerrilla d-i-y cassette-era electronic artists, spanning in total over a near 30-year time frame. all of these artists used electronic advancements in music technology as a means of exploring not only space and the idea of the future, but also of looking inwards to the soul and of creating music in harmony with the natural world.

ihre geschichte ist ein wahres hip-hop-märchen: bei einem photoshooting trafen sich hip-hop-king notorious b.i.g., einer der bis heute weltweit einflussreichsten rapper, und rap-queen faith evans zum ersten mal - neun tage später feierten sie bereits ihre hochzeit. damit begann die wohl legendärste aller love-storys der hip-hop-geschichte, die bis zum (bis heute unaufgeklärten) brutalen mord an b.i.g. andauerte.
zwanzig jahre danach schuf faith evans jetzt das album “the king & i”, das die geschichte ihres gemeinsamen lebens erzählt. es enthält neue vocals von faith, die im studio mit der originalstimme von biggie smalls zusammengeführt wurde - teils bekannte, teils selten gehörte oder gar nie veröffentlichte rhymes aus b.i.g.s archiven. dazu kommen etliche gastfeatures von weggefährten des rap-traumpaars und anderen mitgliedern des hip-hop-adels, darunter busta rhymes, jadakiss, lil’ cease, lil’ kim, sheek louch, styles p und snoop dogg.

während malermeister ihr fachgebiet über ihr lebenswerk definieren, definieren kevin martin und dylan carlson aka the bug respektive earth ihr genre jeweils seit mehr als 20 jahren selbst. dabei verbindet sie ihre gemeinsames interesse fast schon die besessenheit für das extreme. sie begeben sich auf die suche, begutachten und brechen mit vorherrschenden grenzen zwischen dem schönen und unschönen, dem minimum und maximum, dem licht und der dunkelheit und machen dabei musik, die aufregender nicht sein könnte. earth und sein gründer dylan carlson, tauchten in den frühen neunzigern das erste mal mit ihrem sub pop release -earth 2- auf der bildfläche auf. mit langsamen, verzerrten, dumpfen und minimalistischen riffs war ihr debüt der entwurf dessen, was dylan zu dieser zeit mit ambient metal beschrieb, ein stil wie er auf seinem letzten southern lord release primitive and deadly weiter vorangetrieben wurde.

the ultimate edition of the roots reggae masterpiece release 1977-2017! the album classic was originally issued in 1977 in jamaica only and 20 years later in 1997 released by the blood & fire label as the outstanding but now deleted heart of the congos. vp records sub-label 17 north parade has released now the definitive 2017 re-mastered 3lp deluxe edition put together with both respect and gratitude to that illustrious antecedent (also available as 3cd-set incl. the ultrarare original lp mix). this new 3lp-vinyl-set is based on the more well-known mix and master from the blood & fire re-release, plus dubs, disco mixes, seven and twelve inch versions and has with -don’t blame it on i- an overlooked previously unreleased track unearthed. the 3lp-vinyl was state-of the-art re-mastered again by kevin metcalfe and comes in a 6mm spine jacket sleeve with full colour printed illustrated inner sleeves and the liner notes by noel hawks. stickered with the quote: the best roots reggae album ever...(lloyd bradley)

ponds ungezügelte kreativität hat die band bereits in der vergangenheit die weiten des psychedelic-rocks ergründen lassen. mit dem neuen album -the weather- haben sie nun eine scharfe und fokussierte platte geschaffen, eine atemberaubende absichtserklärung, die über marathon artists (courtney barnett, jagwar ma) erscheinen wird. -the weather- bündelt einige der poppigsten momente des quartetts aus perth, welches mit der gewohnten neigung zum abstrakten und zur experimentierfreude auftritt. mit dem köstlichen duft der romantischen erwartung und der synthie-raffinesse nimmt sich der song des patentierten space-rocks der band an und suggeriert ein gefühl, als wäre er aus einer trevor horn blaupause entsprungen. wie der vorgänger wurde auch -the weather- von kevin parker (tame impala) in dessen studio in perth produziert. doch während -man, it feels like space again- einen rohen blick auf die garage-infizierte psyche ponds warf, ist -the weather- eine ehrgeizige, technicolore odyssee in der entwicklung der band.

the self-proclaimed funkiest band on the west coast of africa, the heads funk band, could arguably make that claim for the whole continent. featuring the slick guitar of felix ‘feladey’ odey, the slinky drumming of eddie offeyi and the swirling keyboard chops of kevin ‘fortune’ coburn, nobody was funkier. and that’s not even taking into account the dance floor monsters they were releasing at the same time as akwassa.

after last year’s massive “brainbox” album, de:tuned presents the 7th and final installment “unboxed brain” which contains 3 excellent re-interpretations by future/past (aka kirk degiorgio), mark broom and the black dog of selected tracks off the album and an exclusive new track by the future sound of london. yet again, mastered by matt colton (alchemy mastering) and related artwork by designer kevin foakes from openmind (aka strictly kev, dj food from ninja tune). both kirk degiorgio and mark broom rework b12’s “worlds end”. kirk degiorgio, who makes a rare appearance as future/past, increases the energy levels and turns the original into a dance floor bomb. broom’s version heals back to a more electro and breakbeat vibe by adding some deep ballsy and stretched out beats. on the flipside, scanner’s “eros” gets the black dog treatment. the illustrious uk outfit strips down the original into an eerie futuristic soundscape. lastly, the future sound of london brings us an intense piece of sound design: sit back and let the music take control, stay tuned!

the footloose lp by expanding universe is a young musicians attempt to drag himself out of one of life’s little dark holes. 24 year old dutch producer kevin huizing turned to music as a way of providing a much needed sense of positivity in the world. the result is an accomplished mixture of modern electronica, classical and world rhythms all composed by someone firmly outside of their comfort zone. the overwhelming theme that holds these contrasting influences together is emotion and a desire to make things better. natural and heart- felt. poignant and inspirational. it’s a masterclass in transforming a negative situation into one that’s magical and full of hope. melodies that will stay with you for ever and compositions that truly over ow with feeling and vibrancy. the eight tracks combine to form a wonderful journey of intergalactic escapism worthy of any movie soundtrack. taking science fiction as inspiration if each song where its own unique character they would undoubtedly fuse together transforming into one giant laser beam wielding robot destroying negativity and saving life’s across the galaxy. each track is great but together as part of the album they are unstoppable.
