marco bernardi has enjoyed a long an illustrious career, but its probably in these last couple of years that the glaswegian producer has found his sound. previous releases on frustrated funk, clone, royal oak, creme organisation, futureboogie and rawax have built a solid reputation, and key releases last year on carl craigs planet e and mos/delsin have sealed his rep as a unique player in the industry.

in gewisser art stellt estoile naiant den verbindungspunkt zwischen den frühen selbstveröffentlichten cdrs mit ineinandergreifenden instrumentals und pattens extrem strukturierten und detaillierten kompositionen der limitierten 2013er ep eolian instate (warp) dar. es scheint, als trete der künstler aus dem schatten geradewegs ins licht der aufmerksamkeit. in seinen einzigartigen und vorausschauenden sounds erkennt man einen psychedelisch angehauchten popcharakter, der sich vor allem in seiner deutlichen herangehensweise und sensiblen rhythmik äußert. patten arbeitet im visuellen bereich mit jane eastlight zusammen, mit der ihm eine weit- und tiefreichende, gleichzeitig angenehm bewusstseinsverändernde herangehensweise an artworks, videos und kleidungsstücke gelingt, die die charakteristika seiner musik in sämtliche richtungen zeitgenössischer kultur katapultieren.

nultd001 come signed by the argentinian alexander d niel, he starts with ellie, a world of drums, cymbals and synthesizers in a restless and powerful technos key. meanwhile, the swedish mattias fridell s remix shows us a smart and elegant construction of technoid rhythms performed in a depth and accurate way. kingdom is the second original track of alexander d niel, and where he shows his most aggressive side with a wrenching techno as a continuous sound storm. ungars remix respects the original tracks style but it breaks its rhythm giving more depth and versatility to a techno packed of groove.

erstmalige nachpressung seit der urspruenglichen lp vinyl veroeffentlichung im jahr 1986! turbo charged wurde von king jammy aka prince jammy produziert und gilt seit mitte der 80er als meilenstein des reggae & dancehall - hier finden sich die hits hog in a minty (ein update des mento traditionals auf dem tempo riddim), gimme some of your something, und down in the ghetto (auf dem satta riddim), rub a dub a kill you (auf dem rockfort rock riddim), plus amazing grace (auf dem java riddim). das leben des nitty gritty (bürgerlich: glen augustus holeness) war tragischerweise sehr kurz, er wurde 1991 in brooklyn, new york von seinem kollegen super cat in notwehr erschossen - aber dieses zeitlose album hat ihn unsterblich gemacht

whether he is headlining at nightclubs or playing a marathon set for an underground afterhours event, elon has a key asset in shaping new yorks vibrant underground music scene.

trackwork is a new label from london dj, producer, remixer - leo zero. each release will focus on strictly club oriented raw house music in the classic chicago / detroit / new jersey vein - inspiration comes from key labels such as relief, soundstream, basnotic, roule, crydamoure and many more.
with a focus on hardware sampler and drum machine based compositions that are laid down as a live performance and then edited after, trackwork aims to sidestep todays laptop sound, and bring a raw dj element to the material - with lots of happy accidents and natural freeform arrangements that are designed to work with naturally with the dancer and the intense club environment.

in the long line of belgian talent finding a home on wph (think san soda, lemakuhlar, metrobox, locked groove, …) we are pretty sure that kiani & his legion (aka thomas neyens) will claim his rightful place within a couple releases. because just like the other family members kiani has his very own distinct sound. totally kiani and also totally wph. kiani & his legion should have already caught your attention with his free *records & culture* vinyl in wphs v.i.p. series and he was also responsible for *legions of the east* on the recent wph summer special 2013. being a vinyl lover himself it seemed fitting that we release his full e.p. debut on vinyl only (grey coloured & marbled), containing four tracks that will show you the full spectrum of his house music universe. the key words in that universe are melody, breakdowns, surprise and emotion. it is pointless to describe the tracks one by one, simply listen, enjoy and most of all…dance!

the on-going celebration of delsin reaching 100 releases continues here with the 4th in the series of 100dsr releases. featuring key label friends redshape, d5 and area forty_one, its another compelling package.

after the success of the fantastic album, atomic age, no.19 music released recently from canadian musical talents my favorite robot, the label has decided to enlist four acclaimed producers to provide remixes of key tracks. detroit bad boy jimmy edgar, chicagos kate simko and legendary techno producer mr. g all appear on this great ep.

a 4-track package traversing house and techno. first up jour de fete, a reference to the black and white 1940s french comedy – perhaps a clue to mr georget… one things for sure this is toe-tapping house. taking its time to perfectly build up the progression towards smooth outbursts of wailing sirens. 6eme etape is another fine example of get-up-and-dance house, theres plenty of driving drum kick and jazzy key chords, nicely pulled back and interrupted, to drop back in again with a renewed energy. poil de renard on the other hand immediately marks out its territory among the german minimal and micro house space. strong, syncopated beats laced with chopped up whispers and unknown reverberations, this is tough! the 103 mix softens up the edges, a subtle underlying synth providing the mellowness – essentially your morning-after dub version.

returning to mta records this september, the hotly-tipped josh butler delivers a 2 track release of robust house to follow up on his acclaimed *got a feeling* from earlier this year. with a recent remix of mta founders, chase & status, latest single currently doing damage across dance floors, and a string of key dj dates which include secret garden party, gottwood and subsoul (ibiza), *closer* drops in the midst of a busy summer for the rising leeds based artist.

fresh new summer collection by the ton liebt klang family. an absolutely must have this summer.

after appearances on idle hands and brstl, rhythmic theory returns to their own imprint to further explore gritty textures and mysterious moods within house and techno frameworks. where theory001 featured the somewhat soothing, melancholic tones of >echo vibe< and >omega syndrome<, this second installment comes caked in sonic muck and abrasive attitude.its not all dark and foreboding, as the graceful filter-swept key refrain of >siren song< will attest, but it takes a barrage of rasping hats and bludgeoning kicks and toms before such niceties can be foisted upon our ears. while there is an optimistic lilt to the particular notes the melody calls out, in the midst of such machismo percussion it cant help but feel emotionally ambiguous, continuing the tone set out in the first rhythmic theory releases.there is no such confusion over b side cut >genesis< from the apocalyptic boom of the opening kick to the rapid gun fire of the snare this is a track that wants to inflict damage. at the midway point the searing beat melts away as a wash of delay-riddled speech knocks you from your centre of gravity, only for the drums to come whipping back in to pick up the slack. even the sole synth note that rears its head is devoid of compassion, pulsing a creepy, robotic intonation through the clamour.

so here we are, ab initio 04 is upon us, with sebastien san pushing his boundaries once again. sebastiens sounds are his very own, situated somewhere in that crucial area between the deepest of detroit and the best of deep house. an area ruled by tight drum programming, heavenly strings and deep chords to die for. melody is key, melody that makes you dance and makes you listen. the force is strong in this one, and sebastien san sets the bar high once again!

spearheading freitags new focus on the subgenres industrial techno, dark and raw is martin dolgener, a veteran of professional media sound design since the early 90s. martins been a music maker from the age of twelve, crafting beats using a key-tar and ghetto blaster.

vitalik recordings welcomes sam russo to the ranks with the rather fantastic vanishing test ep. sams production skills defy his years, his style defined and his sound signature. his trained ears have been sought after by the likes of craig richards, matt tolfrey and huxley in recent studio collaborations. his music is non-categorical genre speaking however his influences permeate his music, dub and bass play key roles, darkness and light coexist in a dynamic juxtaposition, bright expansive pads soar over rumbling kicks and moody bass lines.

arma label got its sixth volume released. acid western starring dusty baron, sai and ponty mython is about to hit screens. action flows along griboedov channel, poetic black-and-white slow motion directed by dusty baron, mostly known to arma17 audience as latecomer. picture turns into high-key at scenes featuring sai and ponty mython, resulting in vivid illusion - happy-end is possible.

simply he has never done us. the low-key friendly turkish producer with the unpronounceable name, has never made music for the hip all-together-happiness-floor. the man comes from jazz and blues. and at tolga baklacioglu means electronic music production to test the depths of house music. sometimes tricky, sometimes playful, sometimes psychedelic, but always deep. his tracks have often a length of eleven or twelve minutes. music takes time. prime-time music sounds different. and that is why we like him. and so tolga published with *feeling now and then* his fourth lebensfreude - ep. music that was heard up to buenos aires, where the argentine producer and dj violett (telegraph/unfoundsound/igloo) contributed a functionally magical remix. one thing we know. this time it will not be simple again. luckily.
