a yawning desert covers and oppresses a distant daemon-sphere pregnant with the stuff of a thousand earths. clouds of the same hue and attitude as the infinite sands gradually dominate the sky, possessed of a malign intelligence. a trans-generational caravan cuts an unforgiving line through the dunes in a fruitless mission to close its great mad circle, forever missing by just miles. it is a roving, innumerable harem in liege to an unsexed tyrant who sings them this song, reproduced here by resonant hole emissaries jeanne vomit-terror and ed sunspot, as the caravan commits the abominable act of transgressing the horizon into the infant sky-desert “above.” carl calm’s “gulf of night” mix is a monster, as is the great mike simonetti’s perverse interpretation!

apartments 3rd release comes courtesy of acclaimed producer lerosa. for this, his first release of 2012, he delivers 4 electro-based cuts, a rarely seen side to the man predominantly known for his house productions. the sparse and melancholic combat starts off proceedings, before titaniums throbbing bass, combined with mr. rosas unique melodic sensibilities, increases the pace. on the b-side slavery is a furious acid jam, constantly rising in energy over hectic percussion and a wall-shaking electro beat. finishing on decisions, the pace is reduced considerably while the acid stays intact, delivering the 12 inchs only 4/4 kick for what is lerosas most euphoric cut to date.

the time has come that berlin based techno producer and dj frank muller launch his new label mad musician. these days it requires some kind of madness to devote your live to music. but we are not mad entirely, we are the geeks, the gear nerds, the outcasted studio freaks who just heard about daylight. following a string of eps and remixes as his alter ego beroshima, the launch of his new label as frank muller was long overdue to focus on the new platform. it continues to break the stylistic frame defined by the market and yet manages to surpass the expectations set by these skilfully crafted productions. mad musician defy genre boundaries and incorporate a wide range of sonic colours. merging detroit influenced berlin techno with any kind of genre. exploring the electronic galaxy to invite other true musicians to join the mission and to cooperate, remix and to release the stuff we like. the first invited mad musician is none less than lord kirk degiorgio who recently released some awesome stuff on rush hour and planet e.are u mad enough?
