2 cd compilation,a 2016 remaster and expanded version of their era-defining lp movements

based on the eponymous play by brothers and author/performer team tobi and mike mŸller at schauspielhaus zŸrich, swiss experimental documentary film a1 traverses through time and space along switzerlandÕs first and most elongated highway structure. rich in archival sources, it sheds light on the costs and benefits of rapid movement: social, migratory and ecological patterns, economic and military designs that are mostly not immediately obvious to the casual motorist. stefan goldmannÕs soundtrack engages the filmÕs multi-layered aesthetics full on, providing a dazzling array of short compositions. profoundly synthetic in production, this free-wheeling phantasmagoria of peculiar, yet intensely likeable miniatures branches off into all directions Ð from minimalistic to overflowing, calm to banging, nightmarish to soothing. the visual patina of historic documents is playfully mirrored in intense distortion and noise artifacts, bound into rhythmic units and melodies formed of ghost notes. finding ever new ways of mining his techno background to yield surprising new forms and ideas, stefan goldmann has proven his abilities in a dazzling range of projects over the past years. works for dance, ensembles, an opera and various object-based creations made him a natural choice for the job of finding a refreshing way of linking sound and image. on its own, the music holds up by putting the listener on a high-velocity road trip of the curious mind.

being pioneers with a new album created in no more than 6 months, the orb are bound to be exposed to fan expectations running high, while quizzical questions about little fluffy clouds and the good old times take over. it s especially jarring as the duo of accomplished soundsmiths alex paterson and thomas fehlmann has become known for its genre-bending curiosity and surprising sonic detours, exploring experimental soundscapes as well as club-friendly beats. the funny thing is, though, that whatever the context, you know a track from the orb when you hear it. case in point: cow / chill out, world!, their latest full-length offering - a masterful ambient album that branches out in many directions, but unmistakably sounds like the orb in either ear (and probably to your third ear, too).

praise poems vol.1: gilles peterson (worldwide / brownswood rec.): one of my fave comps of 2015. praise poems vol.2: oliver korthals (mojo / out of spectrum on byte fm): extremely well put together track listing of artists which i have never heard before. left me with my mouth open... - highly recommend! praise poems vol.3: dom servini (wah wah 45s): this is incredible. praise poems vol.4:

disco-phantasien, dunkles kabarett, die klŠnge des klassischen house und der elektronica, die freude und das leid des puren pop: der titel des albums stammt von einem irischen volkslied, das durch the dubliners populŠr gemacht und von ihrem vater gesungen wurde. ÒitÕs me and my rhythm. itÕs very simple, really - but very complicated.

max ravitz has made a name for himself with his hazed dance not dance productions over these last couple of years appearing on a handful of different labels under a handful of different monikers. here on the 15 track, -common purpose- cd we get ravitz in all of his different forms as he teams up with numerous artists from his local brooklyn scene and beyond, serving up unheard cuts from numerous recording sessions done over the last years. through the record we hear the producer s versatility from tripped out downtempo vibes, to mid-paced acid, to high bpm dust burners, as ravitz and co. explore almost all possible avenues while in the studio. collaborators include huerco s., jahiliyya fields, ngly, terekke, bookworms, cloudface, and josephine.

two years on from his previous full-length, irishman-in-stuttgart marcus lambkin returns with what follows, his third album. recorded in his home studio, but mixed with juan maclean in new hampshire, it s a typically stylish and trippy set that methodically joins the dots between giorgio moroder, lcd soundsystem, italo-disco, german techno, balearic deep house, and intense chicagoan acid. lambkin has always been adept at making club music both left-of-centre and accessible, as if he secretly pines to make 80s synth-pop but is consistently drawn towards the dancefloor. this certainly explains the quantity and quality of the vocal numbers dotted throughout what follows.

strong drum & bass tunes

a name thatÕs been on everyoneÕs lips, maduk is leading the way for the next generation of drum & bass producers, bouncing around europe with his uplifting, high-energy productions. signing exclusively to hospital records in 2015 cleared the path to complete his highly anticipated debut album.

grand pianoramax is a supergroup consisting of three strong personalities, each possessing outstanding mastery of their craft: the acute lyricism of leo tardins keyboards, the immediate intimacy of black crackers wild poetry and the powerful, razor-sharp and pugnacious drums of dom burkhalter. the virtues of this rare alloy illuminate each of their concerts, which have taken place all around the globe.

things start off in spectacular fashion with the cute and upbeat spiritual encounter before settling into some funky and mysterious electro with bombay mix. hard copy is reminiscent of the early hi nrg vibes of bobby orlando or gino soccio but woolly hat and parallel universes are funky, fun loving 4/4 electro grooves that are more typical of the dmx sound. he saves the best for last though, with some darker excursions such as the high octane, telex sounding computational paradigm shift and the smack electro closer black poppy. with electro making an obvious comeback.

als in den spŠten 80er jahren die ersten outdoor-trance-partys im indischen bundesstaat goa stattfanden, hŠtte niemand gedacht, dass sich dieser trend so lange halten bzw. weiterentwickeln wŸrde. kaum eine andere dance-szene in europa hat ein grš§eres zusammengehšrigkeitsgefŸhl als die goa-szene. hier wird musik und alles, was damit zusammenhŠngt, noch gelebt. zu keinem genre gibt es eine ausgeprŠgtere und besser entwickelte -underground--partyszene, in zahlreichen foren und communities stehen die fans in regem kontakt. stŠndig finden kleinere veranstaltungen statt, und im sommer sind die gro§en festivals und partys wie waldfrieden wonderland, vuuv festival, alice im wummerland oder psy-purgisnacht immer ausverkauft.

vor nunmehr 35 jahren hat sich new order aus dem musikalischen nachlass der legendŠren joy division gegrŸndet, nachdem sich deren sŠnger ian curtis 1980 das leben genommen hatte. in den 80er jahren war die band das bindeglied zwischen experimenteller elektronik und emotionaler gitarrenmusik und baute musikalisch die brŸcke zwischen depeche mode und the smiths. mit ihrer mischung aus spršder melancholie und sanfter zuversicht haben new order welthits wie blue monday und true faith geschaffen und sind in die annalen der popmusikgeschichte eingegange

for the second installment of their mixtape series, hospital records has turned to devonian duo fred v and grafix, who epitomize the label s festival-friendly outlook. they don t disappoint, either, dropping an action-packed mix that shoehorns 32 tracks into an hour of non-stop dancing fun. after kicking off with the guitar laden hip-hop wooziness of cyantific s high water mark and dimension s tear-out beast whiplash, they variously touch on liquid, hospital style disco drum and bass, and harder flavours. happily, they find room to include eight exclusives from a variety of producers, including a previously unheard vip re-work of their own summer smash major happy

zusammen mit anderen vergleichbaren dj mix-serien wie der des londoner fabric-labels und -dj kicks- auf k7!, gehšrt das format der body language-compilations zu den letzten auf dem markt verbliebenen seiner art. junior boys, modeselektor, dixon, matthew dear, azari & iii, catz n dogz, dj hell, jesse rose und viele andere kŸnstler trugen in den letzten neun jahren zum renommŽ der auf get physical erscheinenden erfolgsserie bei. die von dj t. schon in vielen seiner frŸheren werke angewendeten mixtechnischen tugenden stehen auch hier wieder im vordergrund. dj t. gibt sich nicht mit der vergŠnglichen momentaufnahme einer in sich abgeschotteten stilrichtung zufrieden. zeitlos, sich nicht bei formeln aktueller clubmusik anbiedernd und trotzdem voll im hier und jetzt verhaftet, prŠsentiert sich dieser aus 20 tracks bestehende 78-minŸtige mix.

deep, growling static contracts and contracts to a point, pumping out new sounds like solar flares. the pings of a high keyed synth rush by like stars. for harrington, what begins as one ends in many places-every sound is infinite.
