we hit you with the second single from jimpsters acclaimedsilent stars lp loaded with the good stuff! the album has received much love from djs and critics alike and its clear that after 25 years in the business jamie odell retains his reputation as one of the most talented and consistent electronic artists in the uk. as a&r and dj he also boasts a fine ear for emerging talent and here he hands over the reigns to two hotly tipped producers to rework his originals. first up we have the incredible peggy gou who takes on the sun comes up ft. jinadu.her speedy rise through the ranks over the past 12 months has been down to just a handful of brilliant eps on rekids and phonica and her skills as a club dj. the berlin based korean sits somewhere between detroit, london and berlin in sound and her dj sets are an assured, kinetic combination of dark, pulsing house and techno, broken beats and abstract compositions. her influences shine through on her remix which goes deep and musical whilst retaining an energetic drive for the dancefloor. perhaps the most mesmerizing, floor-focused track from the lp is up next, silent stars. an electronic tribal dance which builds to a speaker-wobbling sub-bass breakdown and wonderful chord section at the climax. next, a remix from west coast native urulu who came to jimpsters attention through his releases on lets play house, dirt crew and his own amadeus label. trying to describe his remix of where you areft. khalil anthony is no easy task, fusing elements of techno, broken beat and afro house, but check it out and if you can think of a suitable new sub genre to pigeonhole it with, let us know. closing the release we have the slow-burning, balearic-tinged beauty known as the sun comes up featuring jinadu on vocals. this is one to drop in the warm after-glow of a crazy night under the stars when tired legs and happy hearts crave a soulful groove to give them one last lift.

invada veröffentlicht den score zur britischen independent-horror-komödie prevenge. toydrum sind pablo clements und james griffith, die unter anderem auch bei unkle tätig sind. zudem haben sie mehrere soundtracks produziert, darunter für die tv-serie this is england von shane meadows. prevenge erinnert stilistisch an den film sightseers von ben wheatley, horror und britische comedy kommen hier ideal zusammen. Ähnlichkeiten sind nicht zufällig: die filme teilen sich die hauptdarstellerin und den drehbuchautor. der score von toydrum ist düster, elektronisch und passt ideal zu invada.

gary caruths sad city project has progressively attracted ever more praise, not least since his shapes in formation album landed last year. straddling purest ambient and abstract rhythmical electronica with a unique approach that is all his own, caruth is returning to emotional rescue with a 10inch that revisits three of the tracks from shapes in formation and magnifies them as the longer form versions they originally were. music removed was a particularly strong track on the album, and this new extended version lets the pneumatic percussion and soulful vocal croon bleed together in the most captivating of ways. patterns sounds even more elegant in its pagan ambient finery with a longer run time, and vexillations flits between poised static and cascading chimes with the deft touch that has come to define the sad city sound.

bobby hammiltons band anibus only managed to released this single extremely collectable deep spiritual funk 45, the single didn t gain the movement they hopes and the bands went their separate ways leaving this one amazing 7 inch reproduced here. bobby is still alive and well so lets put things right and get things right and get this record on the turntable, a truly classy, deep and mindful 45.

2017 repress , just in time for summer, andrés aka dj dez hits back with three perfect house cuts. the andrés formula is fairly simple, grab a sample, flip it, add warm basslines and drums. thing is, nobody does it quite like dez. the title track here is a soulful rave-up spinning on an indelible vocal chop and vamping pianos. -chevy status- is true to its name, a chugging mid-tempo hip-hop/house tune perfect for rolling down woodward avenue, or if you like, a street in your town. -pluck away,- meanwhile, takes some jangling, tropicalia guitars and lets them ride into the sunset, closing out a near perfect record which only builds anticipation for the detroit man s fourth full-length, andres iv.

modeight records is back with a new ep. this pack includes three tracks produced by romanian talent dragutesku. after two successful releases he continues to amaze with spaced out minimal tunes. pumping a1 “faraon” holds us tight with a massive bassline and misty mood. then there is the atmospheric “hipnotic” flys on a2. ethereal and rhythmic “apatic” on the b side lets no one leave the dancefloor.

the lifesaver 3 compilation, the yet most comprehensive package of the lifesaver history, sounds like electro, sharp-edged like the vault in a hague bunker (lauer), provides data pop with piano crescendo (fort romeau), brings the style characteristics of german schlager music to the breakdance mat (rolande garros), lets the bulky lily-of-the-valley bells clang and sends the reverb tails away with the wind (benedikt frey). there are several new names to discover: felix strahd, benjamin milz, vincent feit, and of course there a many old acquaintances: massimiliano pagliara, orson wells, tcb, chinaski. roman flügel brings us “good news”, however: “from another planet.” and fort romeau feels “lost, again”, but in such somnambulistically beautiful manner that you want to get lost with him instantly and jointly find the great joy.

tangram presents the second installment of ltgl’s limited 7” series for record store day 2017. this one features a brand new track by ltgl, called scribble. he’s been playing the song live in the past year(s), featured it in his boiler room set and it has become a sought after gem.

croatian producer el nino andres is steadily building up an impressive arsenal of disco and deep house heaters on his own jackie brown label, having previously been running the hija de colombia imprint. on this fourth slab he pushes his sound into even more intriguing places. opening track slow mo tuesdays lets things roll out on a decidedly dusty tip carried by off-kilter drums. riviera blues stands out thanks to its tough 80s-styled drums and warm soulful melodics. low end massacre meanwhile gets choppy in the edit and makes a devilishly good job of riding the samples.

this is cómeme bringing more hot rhythms to the dancefloors of 2017 and beyond – this time starring charlotte bendiks from tromso, norway with her smashing and generous ep: hidden tracks – the first comeme ep produced north of the polar circle! charlie is a spaced out chica doing dark humour techno hotness - scared and attracted by encounters with ghosts and ghouls, lost souls, insomnia and aurora borealis frenzy – these mystical experiences drive her to do her own take on physical dancefloor pleasure and pain, spinning records or playing live alongside jon-eirik boska, who also features on this 12inch. lets dive into a parallel world of gothic ukuleles, isolated villages and their myths, juvenile silliness and arctic deepness.

the two diggers project has been steadily increasing in productivity since first emerging in 2015, and now it makes the move to jack s house recordings with this no-nonsense three-tracker. -head trip- keeps things simple but utterly effective with a crisp beat, subby bassline and catchy lead arpeggio, while -down the street- takes a groovier, albeit equally stripped back, approach. -you are my groove- spreads itself across the b-side with a brighter disposition that lets warm and soulful samples slip in between the classic house rhythms. if you re looking for straight-up jams that will do the business on the floor, look no further.

what is amateur space jazz? one could call it a lo-fi minimal wavish version of cosmic space jazz and anything closely related to it...from spiritual soul, g-funk, ethiopian jazz to ambient and everything in between...no knowledge of musical theory is required...played with a d.i.y punk approach on crappy digital synthesizers - preferably with dubious renditions of real instruments. warmed up to the right temperature with some offbeat effectsbox. multitracking is a technique widely used...to create a one person band with all its members oneselfs multidimensional copies in time........comes with a 24 page graphic novel written and drawn by danny wolfers himself and a nightwind amateur space jazz gummy domed sticker.......lets enter world of amateur space jazz!!!

we at finale sessions are excited to have mor elians added to the finale sessions family . mor is one of the younger generation artists that we have been keeping our eye on for sometime now. hailing from tel aviv and now living in los angeles and berlin and now travelling the world bringing her style of forward thinking house and techno so lets get with the music and we start with the track the orionids one of my favorites of the ep with its bouncing drums and the industrial flexing pads and the filtering synth s that give it the deepness for days. then we move to the second track light pollution another proper deep rendering if i may add and those high hats that just move the track into the proper scenic vibe, very minimal but to the point with the pads just poking its head out to go forth with the flow of the vocal. last but not least we have echopark-this track closes out the ep with its very bouncy acid sounds and it s minimalistic drum patterns makes for a very melodic sound. we at finale sessions want to thank you from the bottoms of our hearts and we love you very much

nice price deal !!! a new label from lille, france, gaazol arrives with their first release from japan s yoshitaca, resident of the esteemed imprint fasten musique. title track -induced arousal- is a deep and funky acid tinged house workout that should prove versatile either later or earlier in the night. the a side is completed by ittetsu s bass heavy remix with tight percussion and just the right touch of drama. finally, the entire b side is devoted to the rolling bassline of yoshitaca s -gypsy queen- which never lets up. this fine package is exclusively presented on 180gr. vinyl.

„ourselves is entering the third round. but what can one expect from a house label? with the v/a homelike, you committ yourself to the mission of house music in all its various manifestations and take it to the floor. kicking off the ride is sello s “loop my ass“. soulful vocals driven by massive kicks, string sounds and heavy bass. simply timeless. what else could you want? jan ketel & siggatunez pick up the pace with “today is the past of tomorrow“. analog basslines and deep chords shake hands with shuffling hihats. no big hoo-ha. the focus is simply on groove and atmosphere. the boys from rose records, m.ono & luvless, are making their debut on ourselves with house music par excellence. funky and floating, the “walnut express“ keeps pushing through your speakers announcing party. lootbeg s “remembrin“ perfectly rounds up the release and lets you fly away. hovering pads seemlessly interwoven with arp sounds and classical drums telling you that house is your home, simply homelike!“

fleeting wax hits its third release with this bout of sinister, sleek disco for the darker dancefloor that finds bucharest-based duo valeriu borcos and eduard gabia getting remixed from a strong cast of characters. the ever prolific khidja is up first, turning -choose your colour gypsy dark- into a brooding, almost-rocking affair with an irresistible noirish tint to it. the label heads then get busy with a version that ups the arpeggios in a nod to italo amidst plenty of dubby fx, before mehmet aslan stretches out across the b-side with a more yearning version that lets a little light in on the situation. it s a diverse, potent bag of versions that do credit to the original while saying something new as well.

2018 new years deal - red d is back for a follow up to his brilliant chez ep which dropped last year and this time he’s going for the jugular! the man responsible for some of the finest house music of the last decade as fcl (with san soda) and fcl vs vfb (with motor city drum ensemble) knows a thing or two about what makes the dancefloor lose its s..t, with tracks such as lets go seven, it’s you and can we try all testament to this.

konstrukt 005. the gravitational pull of the moon lets the water flow gracefully. way off past awareness, in and out of reach like a half remembered dream.

lehultsub is dedicated to dj-friendly flips, chops and spins, brought to you on a limited edition of hand-stamped white labels. the a-side introduces tony rainwater, who shows us his straight up approach to editing: find an obscure sample, speed it up, make it hit. the second track on this side, lets celebrate less hats loops the dance floor in a frenzy. tony will return for a full 12inch on lehult early 2017. the b-side, my love 4 u will neva die by lucky charms has been played by all of the lehult crew for a year already and has been requested over and over ever since. its rugged, curveball approach catches the crowd by surprise and makes for some unique dance floor moments.

the always wonderful begin returns after a very balearic absence ! and what a return ! let s talk eases us in with some trademark begin style mid-tempo mellowness, as undulating melodic elements are carried straight to the beach on gently lolloping beats aight adds a little more anticipation, with a syncopated backbone and some mesmerising carl craig style synth cycles... on the b, the cut the paste is a burly, new beat inspired chugger, which manages to sound exactly like an early morning, strobe-lit boccaccio moment, while simultaneously basking in the midday sun

a regular contributor to figure spc, it was jeroen search who both started the series and also put an end to its story. with this creative chapter neatly closed, he is now bringing his ever-impressive work back to the main label. across the ep the dutch artist doesn’t stick to one style, instead he lets his infamous machines roam about freely. they take us for a smooth ride along swaying dub chords and gentle ripples until bellowing eches slowly rise above a hypnotic groove.?on the b-side search then pulls out all the stops and barges right in with fidgety claps and whirling bleeps, leaving the track itself gasping for air. this is the renowned ferocity of his live act - carved into wax! ensuing the sonic assault, a simple synth figure emerges stoically over an almost housy bounce as nostalgic rave strings bring the ep to an epic ending. firmly rooted in the past while always looking forward, jeroen search clearly is still on the top of his game. he simply keeps coming up with timeless techno - time and time again.

queen and disco are back with a two track record nothin fancy ep on their own imprint on the a side we have the slower of the two tracks lets go all the way a brass filled disco delight staying true to its original form. flip to the b side and you are welcomed with a percussion laden groove that is up on tempo as well as excitable vocals with everlasting shouts of be yourself.

hotflush welcome lara wehbie aka blursome to the ranks with her debut ep “rendition of you”. raised in north carolina and currently residing in brooklyn, wehbie has come a long way since beginning to work on music in 2011 as a way of channeling her diagnosed depression and anxiety. she describes her work as a transitional darkness, something she says defined her sound even before she could manage the software she uses to make it. in her own words, “rendition of you ep signifies major transitions in my life over the past year and how my environment truly played a role in handling situations. it s a testament to how much happier i am now than i used to be. i still struggle but i m truly thankful for the influences i have around me that have made me a better individual and artist.” along the way she has attended the red bull music academy bass camp in 2015, and after an appearance on scuba s 2016 fabric mix, she debuts on the label with an experimental six track ep. side a of -rendition of you- introduces listeners to her experimental use of vocals and heavy percussive influences from the left field genre. side b dives straight into dance floor material with pounding kicks and and interjecting vocals, but then slowly winds down into a more melancholic ending with piercing synths rattling through to the last drop.

melodies international proudly expand their catalogue of rare soul gems with another carefully crafted reissue, complete with full 16 page melozine. this time it s the spellbinding tomorrow s people album: open soul. deep in south chicago, a band of four brothers raised on doo-wop and flea-market instruments made a record during the mid 70s that did not only mark a seminal point in their youthful careers, but would go on to become a true collector s favourite. open soul is quite simply one of the best examples of raw, stripped down soul in its purest form, and for this reason has become a highly sought after rarity. the album has been carefully reproduced and will be officially available for the first time in 40 years, this time accompanied by an interview with one of the original brothers, various tomorrow s people memorabilia and a number of other contributions from melodies friends around the world.

cabanne has joined the mini-spacecraft steered by young captain han kü-layz?traveling through unexplored parts of the galaxy they taste new beverage. helium sparkling basil, ginger and strawberry shake causes distorted voice at high speed and delay in understanding each other. fortunately space groove and breaks are full of delay and you can hear them all around. lets celebrate for the first time lowris and cabanne teaming up as king of delay aka k.o.d..

a1 --aqua lifeforms- is perhaps the least intense cut on the record, a sort of a slow grower which builds up momentum by layering sounds and pads. a2 -body mover- is exactly what the title tells you. crunchy peak time tune for the dance floor, with shuffling broken beats wrapping around deep chords that hint what s happening on the flip side. b1 -doorway to her- is a nod to the classic deep techno chord-ish approach. well, sort of. the song lets you think that until the first curveball just before the half of the track. after that, it s just deeper than deep. b2 -pulsing hearts- is another well-crafted dance floor cut. the track moves from deep meditative vibe to subtle acid tripping, just to be finished with a proper bass workout. overall, we couldn t think of a better way to mark the 10th barba release.

reboot takes another slice from his recent album ‘alive’ out for a walk. this time it’s ‘are you losing my mind?’. first we’re treated to the vinyl version full of everything we loved from the original. a stripped down tech house beat sprinkled with a might vocal hymn and plenty of groove. then ricardo takes over the track with his own very particular style. he’s made two distinct versions, ‘hauswiedermischung’ is first. as he’s known to do, villalobos created a kind of chaos in which the track lives without ever losing the groove and with plenty of little surprises to discover throughout. next is ricardo’s twenty four minute ‘losing my miles’ remix, and here is where he really loosens the grip on the track and lets it wander in and out of coherence, taking it and us along for a special ride that only ricardo can deliver. from beginning to end, you don’t know what to expect but you know it when it comes. get it, press play, and lose your mind.

well,what about tuesday? israeli hybrid house and techno masters juju & jordash return to dekmantel records with yet another outstanding release. their relentless work ethos makes you wonder if these guys sleep at all. maybe thats what tuesdays are for? dkmntl 043 is a three-tracker and a fine display of gal aners and jordan czamanskis next-level, improv based way of painting records. monday mellow is a dubbed out, twisted and subtly emerging house groover, while wednesday something continues the journey with a dense electronic jazz-tinged stomper. thursday, heavy. demonstrates their full range, combining eerie melodic synth excursions with a jagged bassline an out of this world, destructive yet classy house bomb. as always their intergalactic excursions are superbly executed. lets give them some rest on those tuesdays.

best records own luminary claudio casalini was at the helm for this one-shot studio project that captures italo disco at its most exuberant and organic. originally released in 1984, the bassline on -stop your lies- is a quintessential slice of synthetic throb from a golden era, but the electronic elements are wonderfully offset by rich instrumentation and a brilliantly camp vocal performance from the unnamed boy-girl combo. the vocal mix on the a side is strong enough for a single-sided cut, but the instrumental on the flip widens out the reach of the record and really lets casalini s superb production shine through

forthright, razor sharp techno tracks running at a neck-breaking pace that will leave you breathless, remain neutral is all about the urgency and the purposely crafted indiscipline meant to make you twist your body in every directions. spoke throughout the feral scratches of overworked drum machines and the whiff distorted vocal samples taken from a tape found by chance, france via belgium s mehdi kernachi carries on with his exploration of the danger notion in electronic music -- borrowing as much to the slower, noisier industrial music of yesteryear as the speeded basement hysteria of rave culture -- applying the scorched-earth policy throughout his tracks.

marcel vogels intimate friends label turns to an unknown entity for their next release, giving dear earth no less than a full album to run with as a first outing. that s a strong statement of conviction, and the label are right to be so bold as dear earth shows off the kind of inventive, sample-rich approach that makes your ears prick up in an instant. supposedly hailing from london, this mysterious figure has been trawling through all kinds of ephemera and stewing it into a soulful, meandering body of work that touches on house, downtempo broken beat and more besides
