echocord is back with the first release of 2013. the first ep this year will be by the echocord veteran mikkel metal aka mikkel meldgaard, who keep turning back to echocord and echocord colour. after many eps and albums he is now back with his new record without ep. without ep is a very solid and diverse release putting a fine variety in production on display. from the slow tough groove of parre work through the rolling groove with filtered themes of retro and finally to the more classic electronica sounding until its over we are unmistakably and safely in the hands of mikkel metal. mikkel metal has been releasing on many differnt labels over the last 10 years, lately also signed to the lovely labels tartelet and the label semantica

limited pressing of 300!! mysterious bufiman and the glorious tim schumacher on the label that fully dedicate itself to the underground house sound. bufiman delivers two magical tracks that blend analogue disco, fantastic house and heavy tribal voodoo rhythms to create something very special in electronic dancemusic - we call it obscure discohouse, he calls it monkey b-boy-style. tim schumacher is representing on this record his very own interpretation of chicago-house and brings us three driving tracks that are rooting deeply in the love for analogue sound production of the late 80ies, no matter if its house, disco or synth-pop, but always with a very personal approach to what house-music is all about: emotions. on the last track no less than dj jakob from terpsiton/vfmm is jamming together with tim and two other friends in a dadaistic session

alongside the endless boulevards and among the industrial turins countless blocks, in the heart of mirafiori, two steps away from the factory of the italian motor city, rills grows up with metal beats and, in a town in a non stopping musical turmoil, falls in love with the electronic melody we all know him from his great work on his last 2 eps he released on 8bit.

cutting edge 2004 avant-techno classic with strong disco roots.

sheffield based john shima joins the diametric. family. after a series of digital releases in the last years it is a tremendous pleasure to release the very first vinyl 12 inch of john on diametric. his music could be easily described as the logical progression of the legacy of famous uk acts such as b12, stasis or nuron, but that would be only half the story really. john mixes very emotional and deep techno with intrinsic and delicate rhythmic structures, in parts even harsh sounding bitcrushed percussions, and idm influences together to his very own special blend. now we can already hear the stupid comments from the haters saying that his music doesnt sound new and like the next big hype but the simple answer is: even if so, who gives a f#ck? it is great electronic music and diametric. certainly hopes you enjoy this record and are blown away like us.300 handnumbered limited vinyl copies only. no digital distribution.

lost paradise delivers a modern execution of our post-disco dance music culture, maintaining references to the past and looking for the oasis on the horizon. lost paradise #2 features two originals from space coast, aka sleazy mcqueen and jorge collazo. *vibe a.m.* is deep and dreamy with live flute and piano, emotive melodies and groovy bass. social disco club and last waltz turn in two completely different mixes, both fit for the late or early hours of the night. *cant get enough sunshine* is a melodic and cerebral ode to mid-nineties new york house but with a twist.
support from q-burns abstract message, b.g. baarregaard, sleazybeats recordings, atnarko, sleazy mcqueen…, ...

we are super stoked to have this killer ep out on local talk as we have been big fans of both c.r.s.t. and chesus productions for good while now. as these guys are down with both house music and the uk garage scene we get served an ep that combines the best of both styles. the result is a jacked up house release that would work equally well at the classic new jersey zanzibar club or in your dirty london basement club. the first three tracks (monster munch, newark and life) takes us on a deep and jackin house trip with a bouncy garage twist. but to stir things up a lil extra the last track (special) goes all disco with some soulful philly samples ... perfect for the southport weekender crews!

macadam mambo continues to tease us with forthcoming edits. mme404 ep will be dedicated to (ex) yugloslavian disco, reggae and synth pop edits. emir krkic is in charge of the rework duties. you might know him under his muslim disco club monniker, he released a killer ep on feed records last year.

nyc (via paris) based dj and producer sid vaga returns to nickodemus wonderwheel recordings with another 12 inch full of exotic deep house vibes sure to light up dance floors everywhere. it is an impressive follow-up to his genuinely well-received *brazuca* single from last year. on the a side, sid delivers *na na ye*, a driving cut with a pulsing bass line and hypnotic african chant that pushes the tune forward before getting flipped into a percussive section alongside deep and subtle synths. on the flip *manouche* can be found, a late night house tune with psychedelic balkan guitars and swirling gypsy vocal samples punctuating the track. rounding out the single, valencian producer oscar barila (plastic city) gives *manouche* a truly funky remix with a squelchy 80s new wave style bass line, thumping house beat, and irresistible synth work coming together for a real after-hours nightclub workout.

manmakemusic kick-off 2013 with their housiest offering to date from two new label artists, natan h & amy jean. natan h made his debut last year with anton zaps ethereal sound and on this occasion collaborates with longtime creative partner for an ep of bumping, unconventional house music. title track, *for her*, is a beast of unrivalled warmth working a deep and steady groove to perfection. on the flip, *i know* is a soulful disco-infused workout while *rush* takes aim squarely at the late night raver with its enveloping pads and low-slung bass line.

over the last year i have traveled to canada frequently for gigs and got to know the small but healthy electronic music scene there. cities like montreal, vancouver and toronto have brought forth many established artists over the past few years, such as egyptrixx, azari & iii, basic soul unit, jacques greene, lunice and sixtoo, but 2012 has seen a new breed of no-nonsense house and techno producers come up via labels like turbo recordings and naked lunch. this *dovercourt ep* features three very talented producers: kevin mcphee, nautiluss and gingy. their tracks are a dedication to their hometown of toronto. being removed from the house/techno epicentres of berlin and london, these three are much less interested in what is fashionable or trendy, and more in bringing us straight to the point, no frails jacking house music. i have been playing these three extensively in my dj sets, and i hope you will too. so out to toronto, this one is for you! enjoy. martyn

autumn days are coming quite near and with >jahreszwei< – an ambient tape by berlin based artist the marx trukker – we deliver the soundtrack for that more thoughtful time of the year. as the 4-track ep is put together chronological (starting with the track that was produced last), the a-side is more dark and dusty (roughly produced beginning of autumn with an electric bass, an old portastudio and loads of forbidden recording-techniques) while the b-side shines a bit brighter and lighter (produced digital end of summer, concentrating on the dave smith evolver synthesizer only). so take a walk through a forest next to you and enjoy the beautiful autumn-nature while having >jahreszwei< on your ears!

luc who? marianni? this reclusive french composer paved the underground music history with a handful of mind-blowing lps but still managed to surprisingly fall under the radar. even the experts seem to have forgotten about him when there were clues all over the place! it is true luc marianni didnt belong to no family but his own, with his constant work-in-progress through the gathering of friends and the odd random musical chance meeting.
it is therefore with great pleasure that we offer for the first time in decades the scarce remaining stock of original copies from his first and last vinyls, hoping to turn some heads along the release of the remix ep on ddd records: ddd-lmr-t01 with remixes of jared wlison (detroit), dam mantle (glasgow) and nukubus (rotterdam).
