i am very happy and excited to present the new ep by claudia anderson on singular rec., its her second release on the label and its a real pleasure. she cooked a really varied record once again, liquid forms takes place on a1 and its real voodoo here, the effect of this track is very unique, it’s space and deep, surrounded by many little effects that give such a special result, then comes neutral state, a timeless dub & house feeling, very loopy, that reminded me some stl cuts. be one opens the b… i ve been really sensible to its very sexy percussions play and delayed lead, it transports literally during all the length, its very high quality. to end properly this ep, claudia did a superb ambient cut, everybody knows i love ambient and so here i ve been charmed… its a deep, noisy atmospheric track that close the all perfectly, with simple little percussions that come and go, just what it takes… its a confirmation of all the good i thought about claudias talent, a very subtle, deep and charming record, and i hope you will like it as much as i do! marcelus.

slightly odd warehouse-kind-of-find from the west coast of usa. tracky beats, driving organ-synth-pads on the b, sometimes almost jacking and definitely a little bit wrong. this 12inch has more real taste of the underground than the regular limited edition hyped labels these days.

now heres something special. johannes brecht returns to poker flat with a little night music, a trio of deep, dramatic and driving house tunes that in their precision and invention are testimony to a distinctive intelligence. since an impressive stint as musical director for henrik schwarzs instruments project and the subsequent release of 2013s holla, brechts reputation has been growing steadily with a series of carefully crafted 12inches.

to keep people guessing, the fifth instalment from australia s best selling people must jam label takes things in a house direction with andy ash at the controls. andy has put through an immense ep of varying house flavours to satisfy an all tastes. the ep kicks of with the monster disco vibed hurricane fantasy track. a beautiful summery looper that s sure to keep the floors burning hot! move is one of andy s straight up house cuts - which he is becoming well known for, a deep sounding organ line carrying the track forward with stabs and a nice little vocal sample to boot. mixing things up a little on the flip, our good friend - ron basejam has provided a sublime adriatic excursion remix of move . ron takes the track to a totally different place with uplifting piano lines and orchestral string stabs building to a lovely crescendo. this remix should be earmarked for croatia 2015. finally dommah takes the ep into almost techno territory with building pads and solid beats resulting in a monster track for when the strobelight pulses and the heads go down!

this four track ep kicks off with cladistic mutation , a sparse underwater soundtrack with only the gentlest suggestion of rhythm, lots of reverb and tiny little details that float by like micro-bacterial debris. m2 is a more beat driven dub track but is still way below the surface: the kicks are smooth and hunched over, the chords are smeared out in all directions and the atmosphere is lo-fi and grainy. on the flip, grain gets even more energetic, with firm techno kick drums setting a stern tempo as all sorts of aqueous details and spacious effec ts peppe r the groove. there s a heavenly nature to the pads and an industrial texture to the percussion that makes this a cerebral but physical affair from start to finish. lastly, neurowaves closes things down in blissfully dubbed out and horizontal fashion, with large sweeping pads, tweaked filters and evocative little details all placing you firmly under water.

*darling arithmetic* ist nach *becoming a jackal* und *{awayland}* das inzwischen dritte album von conor obrien und es ist nichts weniger als eine kleine Überraschung, hatte der ire doch noch im letzten frühjahr eine sehr viel elektronischere ausrichtung für das kommende album angekündigt. doch *darling arithmetic* ist das bislang vielleicht intimste album von villagers, und man muss es wohl als eine logische konsequenz verstehen, dass conor obrien dafür einen anderen weg eingeschlagen hat. geschrieben, aufgenommen und produziert wurde das album im alleingang in seinem haus nördlich von dublin. die instrumentierung ist spärlich, klavier, gitarre und mellotron sind zu hören. die lyrics kreisen um das große, vielleicht das einzige thema der menschheit: die liebe - zu sich selbst und zu all den anderen.

relative newcomer to the scene, caserta delivers the goods on his first-ever artist ep release. spanning a wide range of styles from thumping sample-laden hip-hop grooves, to chill nu disco, to bumping old-school house, this one has a little something for everyone. cleverly knitted together with interludes and outros, the dynamic ep is both utility knife in the dj bag, and a beautifully varied listener experience. early support from soul clap, moon boots, kon, roberto rodriguez, justin jay (dirtybird), dirtytwo, craig smith (6th borough project), nathan g

despite refusing to stick to a single genre, deft is one of those immediately recognisable producers, which is nice because it means we dont have to waste any time comparing him to anyone else. 2013 saw the croydon man skilfully hopping from headphone to dance styles, often within a track, his signature blend of cinematic soundscapes and crisp, intricate percussion covering hip-hop, house, and ambient. whats more, his noteworthy contributions to the burgeoning uk footwork scene means the young producer can now count mark pritchard, dj shadow and rockwell among his biggest fans, and boy does this boy have fans, check this bandcamp review of his project mooncircle ep voight kampff: anything this magician puts out has a pretty good chance of getting you pregnant right in the good old music hole. says it all really

fans of deep house will need little introduction to fred everything and shur-i-kan, two producers synonomous with the true roots of the genre. as you would expect the resulting collaboration is forward thinking deep house with depth and musicality in abundance. lead track common ground is all about the lead line, a delicate arppegiated melody paired with a chicago-esq bassline. there is also dub working the bassline to full effect. ep closer so leena neatly walks the line beween deep house and melodic techno.

we are deeply proud of all our music here at hizou. our latest release, however, we believe is just that little bit special. because we welcome to the label a producer we much admire and also proudly call our friend, w & p hgg aka hugo giner, owner of the formidable cornuta sound imprint. and his ep, down for heaven, is notable also for marking the debut of a new partnership, the sons of empire, otherwise known as those two masters of the deep, ernie from minuendo recordings and dubbyman of deep explorer. it is giner’s unique soul, however, that takes centre stage with side one devoted entirely to its 13 minutes of glorious, irresistible and uplifting house odyssey. on the reverse comes welcome, a chunkier though equally hypnotic slab of sly deepness, ably supported by the sons of empire remix which takes the track to a more chilled and, dare we say, funkier celestial plane.

recorded from rudys homemade studio in hampton virginia before he cut *searching for love* on harvest records around 1983, he did this wonderful modern synth winner. with rudy just having one pass on a reel of this song, we remastered it a little at the super disco hq to give it a brighter feel. sure its pretty lo-fi but the quality of the song writing playing and melodies are more than enough to let is see the joys of a turntable. this is once again a limited press.

having spent three years tirelessly growing the la vie en rose label from strength to strength, championing avant-garde house music and helping launch the careers of fresh new talent, label boss terence:terry: now steps forward with a string of his own works. inspired by his blossoming collective and following his recent remix of marcos baiano on lvr015, * acid heroes* ep contains three original terry productions truly for the club.the title track enters in strong punchy form, concocting deep industrial vibes and sinister vocals that echo into the darkness, until, half way through, it takes a more upbeat turn, lifted by reverberating synth chords. * cliché* slaps a little harder with a pounding bass and clashing symbols, before warming up with female wails and woos. a short, sharp taste of chord jabs and the journey builds up to what seems like the climatic futuristic ending, before melting into softer territory and a much welcomed infectious kick, for that last lease of life. rounding off with the murky, splashing number * testing the water*, deep keys and the expert layering of techno effects equals a sublime underground house track, most certain to arouse the dancefloor. * acid heroes* is served as the perfect appetiser to get you salivating before * house couture* , the first compilation from terence:terry: on lvr, mixing producers past and present, as well as a handful of unreleased future-gems to come on the label.

following the huge success of dlm 004 and the massive appeal of roman flugels remix of idle eyes (as charted by all from dixon to michael mayer, dan avery to maceo plex), here is a little surprise from our camp. glockd is c.a.rs trademark washed out sarcasm, bleached cynicism, the track forages paths through chloes dark mind. it was one of the first tracks she wrote on her own, and was recorded down the bunker with timothy j fairplay. a favourite of andrew weatherall (who nominated my friend, the c.a.r album, as one of the best releases of 2014), it is now coming full-circle, being given a stomping shuffle air guitar dance-floor rework by the asphodells … if you liked our lord sabres remix of fuck buttons this is for you. electronics looking at the floor & air guitar. following it is manfredas (the protégé of les disques de la mort) vocal version of angelina, a request from many after the instrumental being released earlier this year. the northern wulf is biting again. and he bites hard.

shipping earliest monday , march 2nd. home invasion is the new label from real tone man franck roger, a man whose career has scaled the full depths of house music over the past decade or so. evidently seeking a new challenge, the parisian s new imprint promises to adhere to a vehemently underground way of working, with every ep released upfront on vinyl-only terms and produced exclusively on analogue equipment. franck roger is back this time in solo with 3 fresh tracks made in is home invasion laboratory, this time going back to some proper raw stuff on the a side, going back to his new jersay roots on vib’ray shun that will remind us some of the old bno traxx made back in the days from the deep, what we used to call the french touch but in the underground scene for those who reminds that era… immersion is a deep kind of aquatic hypnotic track with a little ‘clin d’oeil’ for the old prescription records wich has been one of francks all time influencing label…on the b side we keep exploring a more abstract side of franck wich will remind us his work on earthrumental records ..sub division of real tone rds.. a modern approach of his dubby influences.

itle track - brotherhood is a raving techno animal with thevoice of martin luther king in the break, which fits perfectly. another young label member daniel cuminale turns it into a synthastic remix! alex wolf goes on with - a little bit ofacid - is there anything more to say push the button andmutate the sounds into trippy techno, hard but fair, alex callsit - hustlin . after taking the - blue pill , he kicks it deeperand subby, but still synth-wise. join the brotherhood.

here, you re going to get into a serious classy bunch of tracks, where melodies interlace with round beats and basslines. the wood lesty s voice will enter your brain and will never leave it. the cherry on the cake (already rather tasty) is vid reconstruction mix: a little 15 minutes diamond where he settles gradually his talent, involving the famous voice of the original mix with a compulsion of claps to end in second part of the remix with angelic choirs deserving of the most beautiful opera...

imagined as a sharp contrast and complement to funn citys trashy vintage vibes, darshan jesranis new cylinder moniker sets out to explore the more streamlined, forward-facing side of startrees vision, while sacrificing none of the warmth or funk of its classic influences. disco engine is a futuristic joyride which draws upon late 80s and early 90s techno vibes as much as it does disco and r&b to produce a groove which is warmly insistent, buoyant, sexy and a little menacing.

a1 is kw edit of kellee s funky disco classic. a2 is kw edit of tchaikovskys real classic dance music. b side is introduction for kws new dance music label another one. featuring japanese brightest hope ugfy. supported by: dicky trisco, max essa,kza, beaten space probe

for the 8th instalment of to rack & ruin we see the long awaited return of neil diablo this time dropping the evil k neil moniker from used for the first 2 volumes of the edits series. first up on foreva neil skilfully chops up a little known raw 122bpm proto-house disco jam which has sumptuous boogie bassline, choppy stabs and a wonderful soulful female vocal extended and edited for dance floor delight. on the flip is love ma gin. a glittery disco affair with a heavy bassline and glamorous strings which builds and builds. early dj support come from crazy p, pete herbert and emperor machine.

sometimes it takes a little longer until things happen. talking the conjunctional studio joint of martin landsky and marco resmann entitled lava, now released under their collaborational project landsky & resmann, this single is one that has been overdue for quite a while and for a reason. a reason and shared history that essentially helped to shape and add momentum to marco resmanns career at an early stage a good 13 years ago when he wasnt even known under his real name but used the artistic alias phage dj- and production-wise.

excellent minimal, deep & ambient atmosphere from italy. vinyl only

archetypal detroit electro techno taken to the next level by mr bernardi on burek sub label barba. barba shows its nasty side after the first and very nice and sweet ld nero release. bernardi delivers a double album worth of ideas, spread among 2 releases

this time around, the shimmy sham sham crew offers you a little lesson in history. in 1916, the notorious bandit el guapo and his gang of thugs are errorizing the population of santo poco in mexico. three silent film stars, mistaken for real heroes by the suffering people of the pueblo are called to the rescue and must find a way to live up to their reputation. this is the story of an epic bought between good and evil, a fight to death between three knights of light and the sons of a motherless goat! and off they rode into the sunset in the heat of the night, let those sweaty numbers melt down any worries. no top hat and gator shoes required, just shake that ass!

out of rome, sofatalk soars high on this ep, feeling out the difference between a lifetime on earth or one really cool moment above it. the title track breathes and evolves via a series of flourishes on the playful side of things - this one is no beard stroker. cloudy soul keeps the optimism and front foot action rolling with an excursion slightly to the deeper end without ever fully taking the plunge. wrapping it up, on reflection is a tight little rhythm-box-driven number that takes you by surprise, transplanting you from the floor to the lower middle stratosphere without you realising. japanese producer 9dw then turns it into a hot stepper of its own, keeping the energy up there but differentiating the bounce.

are we all tired of the *artist returns after number years in obscurity* headline yet? because michna sure is. nearly seven years following the nyc dj/producers debut album for ghostly, magic monday, he has finished the official follow up to that record, but adrian yin michna doesnt want to overstate what happened in the interim. *life just moves,* he starts casually, *there has been a lot going on.* dj gigs, music production for video games and commercials, and film scoring have kept him busy, along with a healthy balance of painting, biking, and other non-musical endeavors. in light of michnas sophomore lp, thousand thursday, though, it all seems beside the point. simply put, his latest record is a celebration of the producers love for vibrant electronic music, bothering very little with conceptual or contextual baggage.
the vinyl lp includes a code for free download of the full album.

so the story goes: a few years ago i played a cool underground party in stockholm with my good friend and crazy record collector mark seven. early on that night mark played me this beautiful and melancholic piece of music. mark happily handed me his spare copy and my record collection for a second felt a little more complete… originally released as a b-side track to als slipshod ep on out of the loop the track continued to mesmerize whenever i played it and the fact that so many people loved it and equally as many didn’t know the record i though a re-release could be a great idea. it’s inclusion on gerd janson’s recent sonar kollektiv compilation and the fact that it’s been played by legendary dj harvey ( o bearded one as he’s known to by the initiated)has obviously helped to spread it’s fame to. now hopefully showing it’s full potential we bring you the remastered “lullaby for robert” with a whole bunch of remixes made with love by remixers spellbounded by it’s magic. on part 1 we bring you : the original + bogdan irkük remix part 2 will include reworks by mark seven, gatto fritto and yours truly toot toot beep beep,

with this first ep, s.o.n.s pays homage to the early age of electronic dance music, when techno, house and trance were friendly to each other, when tracks were full of deepness and harmonics, when drums were crazy and raw, when techno was soulful. yeah, this is all about this ep, some soulful deep techno excursions. while the a1 is an after-hours emotional weapon freely inspired by an obscure m. goddard production some will recognize, the a2 is a more straight forward electro track with dark vocals and rising chords, as they made it in detroit back in the days. on the other side of the record is a techno journey through a rainforest with pan flute, deep chords and old school bassline. plus there is a little bonus locked groove: a mere 4/4 tr909 bass drum s.o.n.s personally uses in their crazy obscure techno mixes. turquoise vinyl + foil sticker on cover, limited to 200 copies. mastered by matt colton (l.i.e.s, apron…)
