as dj and as live act, frances nhar certainly knows how to tweak the controls. hes transmitting his message on every channel, sporting his personal recipe for dancefloor mayhem, consisting of driving beats, melancholic euphoria and some other ingredients meant to stay a secret. on diverse labels like mobilee, plak or modelisme, the former member of the 22 crew shines with his panoramic view, melodic depth of focus and concise footwork. that love has to be rewarded, so kompakts jörg burger, a.k.a. the modernist throws in one of his rare remixes for close up, delivering that bonus punch and enhancing the originals charm with the razor-sharp musical scale hes become known for. its a born winner for wir

naming your first release after your band is an auspicious way to introduce oneself, to say the least, but birds & souls have done just that-and the results more than live up to their sensational packaging. birds & souls lead single >birds & souls< (from the debut birds & souls ep on spectral sound) is an exuberant track built more for rock shows than dancefloors, charting a journey from giddy, congas-and-claves house to synth-drenched space disco to ecstatic arpeggiated bliss and back again.

incl. till von sein & aera paradise dub i guess this is what it comes down to being a musician: fire up a microphone, gimme a rhodes, a bass and some drums and lets start jammin! – thats the attitude! thats exactly what chopstick & johnjon together with label mate and partner in crime fritz kalkbrenner did for this lovely earthy release >keep on keepin on<, not to mention that they downed 3 bottles of vodka and bottles of vine during the session! chopstick & johnjon recorded a live acoustic bass a few weeks back, and still under the influence of the hip hop phenomenon, they decided to keep every single sound dirty and real. breaking out of the ordinary and the usual steps of making house music, the 3 musicians recorded almost every single sound in that song..

deacon is the salvador dali of electro... a refreshing example of someone rewriting rules of music as he goes along the guardian by now youll know baltimores dan deacon. dubbed >oddball< by many, >inspired< by more hes one guy treading many thin lines - confidently straddling between nutjob and genius, downright brilliant and insanely mind-bending, and with a live show from another world inducing more audience participation than a seriously skewed pantomime. the label amazing sounds has brought together kindred spirits hudson mohawke, allez-allez and luke abbott to create a rich and varied ep which mirrors dan deacons rich and varied music. this is only the second release on amazing sounds, the first being a 12inch of remixes from the krautrock classic harmonia & eno 76 album tracks & traces (with remixes from shackleton and appleblim & komonazmuk). this next vinyl release is a one time only pressing of 500 copies

man/machine: viennas elektro guzzi challenge the meaning of live in electronic music. bored of laptop sets? with a classic setup of guitar, bass and drums, elektro guzzi quantize themselves to an unheard level of discipline, tightness and danceability. no computers, no pre-recorded loops, no solos. probably the first time techno is really played live. as sequential as they may sound, they couldnt be more analogue. but however traditional they may look as a band, they certainly do not sound like one.
limited to 500 copies.

efdemins little vinyl imprint naif strikes back with number two feauring two of his favorite producers: juergen junker, the most underrated producer, dj and live act from london on one side and efdemins long time friend and partner (together as pigon) rndm, who so far released on dial and its sub-imprint laid.

blimey! we thought we had fallen into a wormhole and woken up in 92! 2020 soundsystems enduring lp favourite and one of the live shows highlights gets put through the downtown ny meat-grinder by tbd. brought on board as prospective remixers after last years immense all ears distributed >what is this< the tbd duo have taken this one on a three-day bender across the big apple! sleep deprived and pounded into submission by unrelenting kick drums and dustbin lid percussion, not to mention enough growling synth action to satisfy the hungriest of addled brains, the two mixes barely made it back home to leeds alive! you have been warned!

how is it that every time we come across a band from paris it makes us want to be right there, in their beautiful, hipster culture? its probably the same factor that made us want to live in brooklyn when we discovered sleigh bells, or los angeles when we first came across heartsrevolution, or berlin when, or manchester when, or, or, etc. ok, to be fair, our home town of brighton is plenty cool enough thanks, but this three piece from the gallic capital are definitely made from that most attractive of purest hip. we are suckers for the sexy vocalist, complete with every word seemingly breathed out, rather than sung. its all so effortless and...

like a live transmission from the party you wish you were at, the golden handshake ep is the first offspring of proud parents (and clubbing royalty) numbers. the labels debut release showcases the considerable talents of low limit and lando kal (aka lazer sword), who should need no introduction to the discerning beat freak having roundly assaulted the ears of audiences worldwide with their unbelievable live show and hundred thousand reaching mix tapes.

blind minded lives in london and is famous for his live appearances and has his third release with trapez ltd with >mr propre<. his first two release on trapez ltd was supported heavily and where charted by the italoboyz so weare looking forward to his follow up. >mr. propre< is the return of what used to be of the detroit sound blended with modern spontaneous changes in mood and crossovers which will put a smile on your face. >mr. propre< is the most technoid of all three tracks, whereas >jazz 2 me< is a bassline monster, with vocalquotes about jazz music stating it as >a state of life<, >something that you live!<. altogether a sexy cool groover! >the melting freak< is the most deep of all three tracks. here you can hear blind minded playing his analogue instruments (also a real 808 drum machine) being funky and cool rather than going for cheap thrills.

prepare to enter the sombrero galaxy. journey to the centre of the sun, the debut release from lovefingers highly anticipated imprint esp institute, is a collaborative effort from londoner jonny nash (discosession) and dutchman tako reyenga. the two met years ago whilst jonny was working and living in tokyo and tako made his way over to dj. around the same time, lovefingers linked up with these two and a musical family had formed. that being told, its only natural for sombrero galaxy to find its home and represent the face of the esp insitute. journey to the centre of the sun is a dive into a moody, visceral and ethereal headspace brought to life through shimmering synthesizers, swirling guitars and a chugging bassline coupled with live percussion, clearly setting the bar higher than the bulk of contemporary electronic music. on the b side, the stallions (lovefingers and lee douglas) reinterpret the track with optimism, nicely complimenting the original with a light and cloudy yet driving house version. this is the music of dreams, keep an eye on esp institute in this new decade.

dandy jack & the metronome allstars with >39 steps<:
dandy jack is maybe better known for his incredible energetic live appearances, shaking crowds all around and turning audiences into a non-stop atmospherical body wave. together with other artists (like for the memorable narod niki 1st public concert at mutek 2003) or alone, in small clubs or bigger events, the german-latin effect has nothing to proove, just power to give.
