man of mystery, a sagittariun, may not be the first, nor the last, in a long lineage of techno producers to go undercover and under a veil of anonymity, but the west country artist doesnt use this cloak to stir up any hype, quite simply the music does the talking, and since 2011, has released a breath taking selection of music on his own elastic dreams label. and so the archer lands on hypeltd after only one other foray onto labels other than his own (2014s lost cities ep for secretsundaze).

this is a tape! all good stories need a context. named after the multitalented artist who used to operate at the bauhaus in dessau, »marianne brandt« is the omnidirectional long length debut of alex ketzer, the respected designer behind noorden’s artworks as well as a talented musician on the rise. ketzer recorded in a room at the dessau structure for a few days, meticulously crafting a piece that sounds like a conversation between history and future, audio and visual, bridging the gap over a century of creation in one of the epicentres of the highest form of artistic production in europe. and now inviting electronic music to its table.

never on a sunday is one of many names used by detroit s burden brothers otherwise known as octave one, a project that has been running since the early 90s. fans of detroit techno and house will already be familiar with the brothers output over the last 20+ years and day by day has long been at the top of the wants list for lovers of the motor city sound since it s 1992 release on 430 west.

the deep explorer boss makes his way to the spm universe once more with this long awaited ep. appearing in 2011 on the come compilation the unexpected became a full-on project backed by an above smoke remix.

a couple of years into honing their skills in the studio and behind the booths, the very dynamic duo known as andhim returns to get physical to present us with ‘spayce, the latest specimen of their self-christened super house genre. raised on a steady diet of hip hop and jazz, the cologne-native pair have proven to many far and wide that they are entertainers at heart and envelope-pushers by nature. taking turntables where they seldom go to turn them into instruments, as well as the heavy use of samples and real-world inspiration to set their own creations apart, its fair to say that ‘spayce is just another example of the duos eclectic, eccentric inclinations. two tracks long and spanning from dance floor epic to quirky by way of some particular glitch, piano work and musical hiccups, ‘spayce ep is a very sweet addition to an already original discography.

ah, yes! finally some real flavours to sink our teeth into. the nose is truly a work of art. first the classic peaty smoke but so distinctly understated. confident in it s maturity. the salty pineapple citrus is next coupled with a refined lemon- lime toffee tartness. and finally a whiff of fresh cucumber sprinkled with the loveliest of white pepper. oh, yes. this is what we’ve been waiting for! the creamy mouthfeel is laced with intense black peppers but then mellows out to give you honey, lemon and chocolate with a dash of tobacco. the long peppery finish is fruity with a hint of limestone. these are the classic flavours that made linkwood one of the top distilleries and expressions should be on your list of malts to try before you die.

entitled narita, the release is inspired by, and dedicated to, japan, and the tracks are a collage of all the experiences and emotions the producer has picked up there whilst on his travels. this release was also due to be the 44th on the label (which has now made it up to number 67) and so has clearly been cooking for a long time. once again it proves the man behind it to be focused on stripped back and hypnotic grooves, shadowy textures and subliminal synths that are abstract and truly heady. up first, sleepless is a spooky and hypnotic techno roller with icy pads and rubber drums that roll on like a haunted midnight train burrowning deep into your brain. ebisu is even more reserved, with just a light, skipping kick and tinkling, glassy keys suspending you in a wide open space of abstract atmospheric soun d. on th e flip side, mountain splitter is more urgent and immediate, with nervy pads this time racing alongside woodpecker precision and supple drums. it s heady stuff that really distracts you from the world before finally trance is a wash of grainy white noise and groaning synths that soundtrack a word deep down in the depths of the ocean. svreca is a master of getting deep inside both body and brain and does so in different but captivating ways with all four of these cuts.

a1: -deep roads- the idea of perfection has never been so close. with its persistent succession of drums and embracing bassline the first track of the ep kicks in with analog pure sounds. a2: -got me- it is recorded with maria bergson on vocal. 100% pure sexy club banger. b1: -what u want- alex calls den on board to create something extraordinary. the result is a creature that will take your body and shake it all night long. drums and bass recorded live, analog. b2: -got me- (rick wade remix) nothing better than an exotic and tribal version of got me by the master of house mr. rick wade.

the long running one records overseen by adam shelton and subb-an returns with it s 32nd release and first of the year, more importantly warp is the first full ep for the label from mr. ashique subhan! with a style very much cultivated across releases on spectral, crosstown rebels, visionquest, cocoon, a new record from subb-an will always be greeted with anticipation. lead track warp is a typically classy slice of effervescent house music, funnelling deep and dubby textures underneath a strident bassline and crisp, intricate drum programming. complementing this, tv is an equally charming production who s worming bass surges work well against the vocal contribution from jacob phono.

long making a name for himself in his native ireland with his wild club nights, james went on work with such cutting-edge producers as roy kerr (london grammar, santigold), the nexus (lana del rey, hurts) and tom neville (ellie goulding, kelis) to craft his sound.

vinyl only. extended precision-tooled killers on this latest ep from specialist label assemble music, which reunites daze maxim with his long-time friend and collaborator patrick specke. the two put their considerable dj experience to the proof on two serious heads-down weapons aimed squarely at the floor: ‘battery’ rides a threatening bassline and loose, propulsive percussion through a series of phased synth lines that envelop and disorientate, while the portside waves-esque bass swells on drag me massage the eardrums and direct the feet. completing the ep in complementary fashion is chromosome, which brings some more skip to proceedings, its shuffling percussion, pitchbent bassline and melodic accents all interlocking to form an irresistible groove. primed and ready for action and only on vinyl – get it while it’ hot.

why so series kicks off with nu zau, providing a two tracker immersed in hypnotic percussion on both ends of the release. whilst the a side, -jannete-, is dark, gloomy and riddled with robotic like features, -povestea sovietelor- settles into spacier grounds and takes its listeners on a field trip through long forgotten chants and ambiental excursions. vinyl only with original artwork and inner sleeve

long standing sonic groove artist realmz returns with his latest release nocturnal realm. a stunning four track ep of diverse techno sounds.the ep starts off with air supremacy a mechanical broken beat laden industrialized techno track that oozes with machine funk. continuing into the depths of the sonic groove is circulation. a rhythmic 4/4 pulsating workout which commands its way thru the speakers with a swath of fury. swinging the mood over into deeper melancholic grooves are the thought provoking hypnotic melodies of songs metamorphic and architecture of time. two tracks that dig deep far inside your mind. realmz clearly shows creative versatility on this ep. another great releases from this very original sounding artist

it has been a long time between drinks for german band bambi - and it is something of a triumphant return, too. last time we heard from them, back in 2000, they were a post minimal rock duo comprising of guitarist/vocalist robin van velzen and drummer hans christian fuss. a decade and a half of live improvisation and a multitude of collaborations later, they return as a balearic rock four-piece. the bands newest members, former mountaineer man frank mollena and sofia fuss, were asked to join following a particularly successful series of live collaborations and improvisational jams. through balearic post-rock territory, with van velzens weary, emotional vocals riding a wave of vibrant colours, backwards hazy, intoxicating and evocative, it sounds like a horizontal anthem in the making. one sided, hand numbered, limited to 500 copies.

quite limited double vinyl pressing with full artwork gatefold sleeve!

san francisco-based dj/producer nick monaco has long been part of the soul clap family, releasing his first 12- on the label back in 2012. mating call, a double 12- set running at album length, is easily his most expansive release yet. it s typically eccentric, delivering a range of songs - featuring his own distinctive vocals - that blend numerous styles whilst retaining a loose, funky and altogether rather kaleidoscopic feel. it s rooted in balearic pop, but also touches on dub, deep house, boogie, dub disco and a strangely deep and contemporary take on the triple-beat rhythms of glam rock. it s hard to accurately describe, but is really rather good, certainly, it s one of soul clap s strongest releases of recent times.

official re-edtion by phil week & didier allyne with sunkiss aka david alvarado. released on groove on in 1996 & hard to find this days. apogee/eclipse are deepest dub techno. will appeal too all basic channel/deepchord fans
