see that man on a far off hill, working his dog while attempting to find shelter from the howling wind and driving rain? that��s the crooked man, the very antithesis of the modern dance music producer. he lives a simple life, dragging his world�, weary soul across the moors in an endless bid to escape the fallout from 30 years spent at the forefront of sheffield��s electronic music scene. once regarded as one of the steel city��s greatest selectors, he now admits to being gripped by fear at the idea of djing, and refuses to spend any time in nightclubs.

recovering from the gray decay of the winter here in berlin, we are more than ready to push forward farther into the future. in order to do so the powers at chronicle have aligned a new musical offering to test the palate of those who know, and those who care. we are pleased to present six tracks from the prolific arnaud le texier, who has made waves for years with his children of tomorrow imprint and renowned taste. from cosmic interludes to heavy hitting transcendence, arnaud manages to showcase all sides of his production skills as they translate into a compelling and emotive narrative. among them stands a tribute to one who was lost along the way that we simply do not want to forget. only rarely in this life do we stand witness to gures that make a true impression, an imprint that continues to leave a mark long after the original has passed. max_m was one of these gures, and it is through his music and immensely dignified curatorial prowess that his legacy will live on. arnaud�s poignant tribute stands as a personal note amongst an ep full of forceful techno suitable for deep space exploration

philippe quenum returns to cadenza music with �solitaire�, some thirteen years after helping kick start the swiss label with the 2003 release �orange mistake�/ funky dandy�. this groundbreaking single, co-produced with luciano, has since become a landmark release, not just for the label, but also as the benchmark for the micro-house and minimal tech-house genre that developed over the decade. with a music career than spans back to the mid-80s (dancing in nyc as part of the breakdance troupe, the magnificent force), quenum found his forte with house music, both as a dj, and as a producer and label owner. setting up the access 58 label in 1998 as a platform for his music and collaborations, quenum has consistently released over the years for labels like crosstown rebels, soma, alphahouse, thema and trapez ltd. �solitaire� finds quenum on fine form, on the lead track, dubby fx and bass shaking shots roll out over an urgent disco beat, muted brass and technoid stabs fire from all directions as the tension building pads flourish. shadowy forces are at play on �mystic�, discordant sounds echo and bellow over reverberating percussion and a dense back beat that fire into life with shuffling hi-hats. wrapping up this welcome return to the label is �mystery�, whipping snares and industrial clangs rumble over the urgent drums for more hypnotizing dancefloor work from philippe!

-when two of the most exciting young labels today join forces to breath new life into a classic king britt production there�s not much that could go wrong. oba funke�s -uzoamaka- might have 14 years on its back but it blends in perfectly with nowadays red

the third album from james blake as double 12 inch vinyl in gatefold sleeve

belgium based fabrice lig is nothing else than a phenomenon of techno music. the list of high profile imprints where he released his music, like planet e, r&s, kms, third ear and playhouse is unique. marc romboy: �i m very proud and glad that i could sign such a legendary artist to my label. i m playing all three tracks in every set and wish there would be more real techno music like this.�

a negative hallucination is an idea that was first put forward by sigmund freud in 1890. he used the term to describe how a hypnotised person could be led to be unable to see a person or thing that was right in front of them once out of the hypnotised state, creating a gap in their reality. sadly, this gap in reality seems endemic in the minds of many in the world, whether from lack of access to facts or from wilful ignorance. the result is the same regardless: a world where many oppressed peoples reality is edited out of the conversation. noleian reusse (half of africans with mainframes) and thomas cox (one third of pittsburgh track authority) got together in the studio in pittsburgh during a week of extreme social unrest in the usa in late 2015, resulting in these recordings. the tracks are crafted with a stripped back electronic funk and a stark, relentless feel that reflects the energy in the air at the time. as long time fans of politically and socially charged music like public enemy, underground resistance, nwa, dopplereffekt, and gil scott-heron, noleian and thomas have taken these influences and mixed them with their own styles to come up with a modern dancefloor version of those ideals. lead track solidarity fills the whole a side with its optimism. soulful melodies and strings conquer the driving rhythms, bringing a sense that through sticking together, a better future is possible. the b side s perspective is darker. police state is a crazy raved out banger that combines gritty acid and harsh tones that channel the day-to-day existence for far too many urban people. the third and final cut, surveillance, is a paranoid, spacey techno track that would be ideal as a soundtrack for closed-circuit television video reels. this snapshot of urban life is tied together through artwork by andrew burger, whose mix of throwback style and current ideas nails the dystopian existence that is now reality as predicted so long ago by orwell, huxley, lucas, and many more.

i am havayah, all life is sacred! one of the most important pioneers in techno history, johannes heil, with a new side project and long awaited release on his very own and new imprint >sacred<. music as spiritual and healing art combined with a wonderful artwork. there is nothing more to say about this record. just listen and feel it.

nagamatzu were the british duo of andrew lagowski (seti, legion, terror against terror) on synths, guitar, and programming and stephen jarvis (pure motorised instinct, terraform) on synths and bass. formed in 1982 after messing around with old tape machines and drum boxes, making numerous contributions to international compilations and erratically releasing their own cassettes. their name comes from a character in jg ballard�s �atrocity exhibition� and their music reflects his influence. nagamatzu self-released their debut cassette �shatter days� in 1983 after messing around with old tape machines, drum boxes and effects.

roe deers is a lithuanian-based audio-visual project led by liudas and oskaras, two besties, often mistaken for brot-hers. we welcome roe deers to the omnidisc family. with their rush ep. its an impressive debut, built around metallic percussion hits, chugging post-punk attitude, tipsy textures and the sound of broken cuckoo clocks. �rush� is a throbbing dance-floor excursion blessed with an otherworldly atmosphere. it s the musical equivalent of fin-ding a wormhole round the back of a sprawling industrial estate, and then stepping inside to have a look around. easing out the ep�s post-punk and industrial elements whilst adding a heady air of horror-influenced late night mysticism. breathe in the rarefied air, and then run for your life.

reissue. the masterpiece album originally released in 1997 by prism aka susumu yokota, japanese true originator of techno and house. timeless classic.

pussy mothers is the behaviour of a cross-continental two piece from scotland and down under: formed by waving not drowning. chasing percussions, vocal athletics and hand claps concocted into a platter of disco junk funk and early hip hop rhythms, the number 1 ep took shape in glasgow s tenement flats and came to life through a spaced-out echo party held at green door studios.

a fresh relic was unearthed in the distant east and the retreating ice sheets of siberia - the ancient bones of a forgotten race, once again touched by sunlight and air, stirring the caged memories within. tendrils of this prehistoric demon�s soul wrapped themselves around those who made the discovery - entrancing, captivating and compelling them with its dark story from the deep past. it is a tale that runs eternal, an account of the deepest savagery of nature - a conflict that has spilled across every conscious being and drives the endless cycle of life.

first part of cygnus remixes is here. that big track produced by coyu and sezer uysal will have a second life with big revisits.
the first remix is signed by one of the biggest legends of the electronic scene: the mighty john digweed, together with his studio partner nick muir, did a proggy-tech trip with tons of epic vibes.
gabriel ananda has turned the original into a more electronic, sophisticated and special track.
last but not least, coyu did a dub edit from his original cut, focusing the leadership of the track in the bassline instead of the melodies. great names for an amazing package!

jamal moss aka hieroglyphic being veröffentlicht sein lang erwartetes soloalbum �the discos of imhotep� auf technicolour/ninja tune! jamal moss hat sich einen einwandfreien ruf als produzent sowie als live-performer von hypnotisierendem, experimentellem elektro und free jazz aufgebaut, der in seiner heimat chicago und seinen beziehungen zur schöpferischen underground club-szene wurzelt. inspiriert durch ron trent, dj rush und ron hardy, wurde jamal moss von den visionären und produzenten steve poindexter und adonis ausgebildet. diese brachten ihm die drum machines näher, die das rückgrat der bewegung waren und ihn zu seinen frühen streifzügen durch die musikproduktion ermutigten. seitdem veröffentlicht er fleißig über sein eigenes label mathematics recordings sowie labels wie rvng intl. und soul jazz / sotu. seine stellung, als unverwechselbare, kreative kraft, verfestigte moss auch durch seine zusammenarbeit mit marshall allen von sun ra arkestra und noleian reusse (als africans with mainframes). unverwechselbar ist auch seine art, musik zu machen: er vereint seine antike herkunft und musikalische dna mit einer leidenschaft zum experimentieren, erschaffen und setzt musik als heilmittel ein.

we live a life in between exorcism and consumption stirring up a piece of sh-which might be the forgotten, the unexpected, the unusual, the left behind. dust as a metaphor for our repetitive culture, can t be better chosen to head the redust ep on formresonance. grainy and with a sixth sense of its pulse, the tracks do emerge into a wide soundstream. dust hereby transports a piece of wisdom: the sound signature. knowledge which is inherent in class-a circuits, vinyl, or tape and which can be barely re-produced. georg stuby is already a dj on stage, like burning man, club der visionäre� he resident in the zürich party scene, teaches at the school of sound and drops out some nice tips on his own blog: www.georgstuby.com the redust ep is his debut release. jonas & christopher lawrenz provide their experience with georgs music, even longer.
