this is a clear perspective on comelades musical universe and can be considered as an ultimate best of and a radical introduction tothis chaotic and uncompromising instrumental music. rocanrolorama abrege (abbreviated rockandrolorama, in english) is the short version of the complete works and reworks of pascal comelade published at the end of 2016 as a 6-cd box set in a sold-out limited edition of 1000 numbered and signed copies. pascal comelade made this album as if it was a new and separate album, with tracks that he considers best represent his work, from 1993 to 2016, according to the principle applied with the rocanrolorama box set: songs in their original form, alternative versions, reworks, additionsÉ this short version was conceived especially for a double vinyl lp format: four sides with six tracks each, which you can listen to in the right order, from start to finish, according to a logical, thought-out progression for each side (slow tempo, medium tempo, orchestrations, electricity, etc.)

with his third album vin ploile the bucharest, romania based producer, musician and dj petre in-spirescu captured a whole new audience in 2015 and reached out with minimal leftfield ambient sounds to music loving folks, that are not part of the world-wide dance music universe. well known as one of the key figures of the romanian electronic dance music scene since his first ep tips on lucianos label cadenza, inspirescu stepped away from club sounds that made him famous due to releases on labels like vinyl club, lick my deck or amphia.

ten walls debut album ÒqueenÓ the long awaited debut album from the highly talented dance music producer and artist ten walls called -queen- will be available from the mid of march in a double cd package. ÒqueenÓ is an organic album consisting out of two parts. first part unravels into a story told through the fusion of strong classical influences, nu jazz, down-tempo electronica, indie & house. itÕs destined to captivate attention with the emphasis on feeling through listening. second part on the other hand is oriented towards feeling through movement and better reflects the side of ten walls known to the dancefloors. this album as one piece, just divided into two physical cdÕs. the package of the album looks like a book - a piece of art. the book includes photos, reflecting each track. Òi have pictured these musical pieces in my mind, as itÕs natural for the artist to exceed the professional competence and search for additional forms that would supplement your work, making it single piece of art.Ó - adds marijus (ten walls). the combination of arts is a very important thing to be noticed, each of them has itÕs space, place and role in the album. poetry and lyrics, photography / visual arts and music, altogether they make ÒqueenÓ more than just a music album. ten walls also made collaborations with very wide and different spectrum of musicians during the creation of his debut album ÒqueenÓ. renowned maestro petras geniu_as, good old friend vytautas sondeckis who contributed with a cello masterpiece, bass guitar domas aleksa, drummer marijus aleksa, singers jonatan bŠckelie, alx , monika liu, marijusÕ spiritual friend and teacher andrew, conductor ri?ardas _umila and nonet performers

a good place to start. her basic sound and image were interior-life bohemian, and in some ways she was cagey with her talent. she didnt belt or improvise broadly. she picked a limited range of notes and climbed into them, applying a pinch of vibrato, letting her voice fade and crackle. these tracks clearly demonstrate her guiding desire, which was to explore the possibilities of the slow blues in the late 20th century, whatever that might mean. some of the most intense recordings she made were english-language covers or japanese rewrites of american jazz standards, blues songs and spirituals, backed by only acoustic guitar and drums. she sang slowly, as if there were weights on her. and after a while of her working and your listening, youll hear it: the way she connects intimately with her task but keeps something private for herself (new york times)

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.

amazing sounds from this great accordeon player from cabo verde! lp gatefold with liner notes in 1997, a quiet, unassuming man of 59 years old named victor tavares better know as bitori walks into a studio for the very first time to record a masterpiece which many cabo verdean consider to be the best funan‡ album ever made. bitori s musical adventure had begun long before this point. it was 1954 when he embarked on a journey across the seas to the island of sao tomŽ & principe. the young mans hope was to return to cabo verde with an accordion.

a collaboration between aphex twin (richard d. james) and µÐziq (mike paradinas), mike & rich - Õexpert knob twiddlersÕ was made back in 1994. richard edited the tracks into shape later in 1996 with his new apple mac computer and it was released later that year on rephlex, the label he co-owned and which released the first two albums by µ-ziq. this new reissued version has been carefully cleaned up, re-edited and remastered from the original dat tapes, put into a more fitting order and, more excitingly, seven new bonus tracks and alternative versions have also been added. the album was recorded over a few days during the 1994 world cup, back when richard lived in a big shared flat in stoke newington. richard had tried to collaborate with a few other likeminded artists but something clicked when mike and rich worked together and the sessions have a unique feel, playful and at times actually drunk. these are fun experiments in the spirit of lighthearted moog pop and ripe 70s british tv themes, standing out from the po-faced electronica of the time with a garish glee. the record was made on what is now seen as pretty primitive gear - an atari, roland mks-80, memorymoog, roland r8 and a handful of samples on a casio fz-10m - but itÕs to their credit that it resonates well with the hardware workouts coming out today. there s a broadminded but sloppy funk to the record, even whistling, singing and harpsichord in reg and wonky beat pile-ons in jelly fish . there s latin piano and wheezy drunken techno in ÔvodkaÕ, or the sleepy spaced out ambience of Ôbu bu bu ba with its barely contained laughter which seems to reflect the absurdity. the new versions and bonus tracks are an absolute delight - from a trancier version of Ôvodka to the wonky bounce of Ôportamento gosh , the 3/4 dub of waltz, the banging door bass of brivert and muonds , the creepy seasick atmosphere of clissold bathroom and finishing with the strangely graceful and serious organ plodder . a generous and welcome return to the racks

wowser, what a stunning double feature we have here in our hands today! to all our ibiza amigos and chicas: cocoon recordings presents an unbelievable package just in time for the peak of this years ibiza season. please welcome sonja moonear and one of the greatest house and techno producers of all time, mister carl craig! and what a package this isÉ full of love, soul and electronic dance music highlights. carl craig is in charge for cd1 of our official 2016 ibiza release. the detroits 90s techno wunderkind and the mastermind behind some of the biggest house and techno records ever made leaves us almost speechless with his amazing selection and mix. of course we didnt expect anything

following contributions by dj deep and dj hell, tresor records are proud to present the third instalment in their kern mix-series, this time headed by berlin based producer objekt, his first release following his 2014 debut album flatland for pan. in keeping with the series mission of showcasing a more personal approach to mixing hertz describes his process as such, kern vol. 3 is made up of tracks that i know i will play and love for years to come. some of these records have been in my bag for years others are almost as new to me as they are to you. a handful are by lesser known artists whom i admire and who i think deserve wider recognition. planned, recorded, embellished, reworked, tweaked and chiselled away at over a period of 6 months, the mix was gradually carved out in a way that makes use of new and old techniques alike, presenting itself primarily as a dj mix but settling in a sweet spot between live recording and studio trickery. the tracklist spans styles, decades and bpms in an attempt to craft a mix thats unpredictable and compelling in equal measure Ð one that draws from the more adventurous corners of my club sets, but above all, one thats a pleasure to listen to.

hotflush recordings is delighted to announce the arrival of a second full length from sepalcure, the american duo made up of travis machinedrum stewart and praveen braille sharma. arriving four and a half years since their acclaimed debut, 11 track album folding time is a singular and tender statement that lands in may 2016.

weval beziehen ihre inspiration nicht aus einem einzelnen musikalischen genre, sondern eher aus einer akkumulation von musik, die sie inspiriert. die ergebnisse zeichnet eine beeindruckend kohŠrente vision aus aufnahmen wie das dramatische the battle, der bassknurrer i dont need it oder die trip-saga madness teilen diesselbe dna aus schwungvoller nostalgie, einer schwŠche fŸr immersive klangschnitzerei und einer gewissen delle im groove. sie nŠhren sich auch aus zutiefst persšnlichen erfahrungen und stimmungen, wie zum beispiel bei der eindringlichen elektronischen ballade you re mine, dem vorsichtig geschichteten, polaroid-gefŠrbten just in case oder dem wunderschšn gesungenen schlussakt years to build. und manchmal ist es nur ein altes, verstimmtes klavier, das im flur herumsteht: immer wenn ich dran vorbei lief, musste ich darauf herumklimpern, erklŠrt merijn, also wurde es ein zentraler bestandteil von you made it (part i). kein zweifel: dies ist wevals stŠrkstes und organischstes material bisher, was durchaus was bedeutet, wenn man das talent bedenkt welches bereits in schmalen, doch gewichtigen portfolio der band steckt.

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.

already drawing comparisons to artists like kaytranada and pomo, french producer and multi-instrumentalist jean tonique gets set to become one of the most hyped artists in 2015 with the release of his second ep through yukseks partyfine label on 30th march 2015. drawing influences from 70s funk, jean tonique makes an effort to distance himself from genre-defining elements while approaching his music from an organic and raw songwriting perspective. using elements from hip hop, house, and 70s/80s funk, the multifaceted producer likes to draw people in with the malleable dynamics of his music. after remixes of lana del rey, outkast, the kooks and many more, jean tonique has broken into the online market through being a regular fixture on hype machines top 10 and growing recognition from media outlets. now, growing on his french electronic music notoriety, jean tonique is preparing to expand his presence with the physical release of the you ep bringing that old school, happy vibe that made us fall in love withfunky house

nihil is the new album from norwegian composer and sound artist anders broby.

ntogns second full length album was made for the art installation *where threads lead*, curated by frantic art gallery in tokyo.
the idea is to give a sonic interpretation of strings as both art and as an all encompassing structure of life. ntogn s approach to this has been to work with few evolving elements, flowing and curving like threads in a web. resulting in a varied lot of sonic braids.
early support by cio d or, svreca, takaaki itoh, valentin corujo (exium), mod21, attemporal, eomac, iori, jonas kopp, rasmus hedlund, retina.it, victor martinez, periskop, sam kdc, antonio vazquez, blndr, luigi tozzi

italian dj and producer manuel fogliata hasnÕt released a lot of records over the last ten years, but the few he has put out have always been worth tracking down. perhaps best known for his work alongside donato dozzy in creating the much sought-after aquaplano records at the tail end of the last decade, nuelÕs solo outings have been just as consistent and just as impressive. whether taking on metallic electro or syrupy, bass-heavy ambience, nuelÕs attention to detail and his keen ear for a groove has made each release something to treasure. nuelÕs only previous full-length, trance mutation (further records, 2011), was a masterpiece of minimal repetition.

during the last three years a new name has been making waves at ostgut ton and berghain: berlin born, raised and based producer kobosil made his debut with a remix of barker & baumeckers silo (ostgut ton, 2013), completely unknown at the time, he has quickly earned his stripes as a dj on the clubs main floor, eventually becoming a resident at berghain. following up on five subsequent 12 releases and kobosils first live sets, his debut album sees him covering yet new ground in the form of a full length release

two and a half minutes of drums rolling under a whirlwind of cranky guitars and vocals arguing from the bottom of a 1990s boom box, thats 51 black super. 11 tracks and 30 minutes to cross the usa, from california with pavement and weezer to ohio with guided by voices and the raspberriesÉ 51 black super isnÕt a band to get lost on its way, or in futilities. written, composed, recorded in an emergency, with short and intense sessions, the debut album by 51 black super is made in the image of its creators: spontaneous and eager to get things out there. sounds like the strokes with less cocaine and more facial hair, said a californian rock critic after listening the two first few tracks

>this mix was the perfect chance to sit down with pinch & bring together a sonic which we both feel we have been working towards for a while, albeit from very different angles. in my opinion the dance music climate in the uk is enjoying a healthy & extremely interesting transitional period one which i would draw parallels to the 93/94 proto era when people were literally making up the rules as they went along. this mix is a ode to that time & our attempt at throwing some ideas out there, with the hope of sparking some imaginations & pushing things further forward< - mumdance

niko schwind now presents the fruit of his labour in the from of his third album: grippin world captivates the listeners with its versatility and coherence, and kidnaps them to a world of sound, made up of elegantly reduced grooves, organic arrangements and accessible vocal-melodies.

anchored between the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s, when industrial music courted funk, when electro(nica) made a shy appearance and house was visceral and plaintive, also inspired by current r&b productions and futuristic hip-hop, tropics of love is a slow tempo record that shines like a steel sun and rings diabolically romantic.

after last years album love & devotion the husband and wife duo of mike paradinas and lara rix-martin follow up with weird drift. the album shows just how much their ability to write confident and thoughtful pop songs has developed, while still being able to retain the sleepy cushion of steamy synth pop that made the first record so rewarding to listen to. this time album features the vocals of a vezelay, a.k.a. french singer and producer matthieu le berre, who brings a gentle poised falsetto to the duos productions along with a delicate but hopeful angst.

georgie fame ist eine britische r&b-legende. er hat in seiner 50-jaehrigen karriere mehr als 30 alben und 13 hitsingles veroeffentlicht, sein bekanntester hit ist >the ballad of bonnie and clyde< nr. 1 in uk im jahr 1968.

theres a common thread that runs through all of brandt brauer fricks music. it is this: interesting things happen at the interface of machine and hand-made music. the berlin trios 2010 album, you make me real, fused techno and classical. the 2011 follow-up, mr machine, saw them go the whole classical-meets-club hog with a ten-piece ensemble playing dance music live. then, earlier this year, came miami, a darker, more song-based collection exploring the same man-machine ideas.

full length album by gb on his own label. we love what this guy is doing anc on his new album he finds more depth within his signature sound. recommended!

martin atjazz & jullian gomes have put together what is an incredible electronic dance album accompanied by some of the industries most sought after vocalists. an album born out of their love of music, this block of well-crafted work oozes honesty and forward thinking. not being bogged down with industry demands, they have made an album that martin describes as us on a plate

good price for good music! what do you do when a live project exceeds its own ambitions? just keep doing the wonderful concerts and eventually head to the studio. sounds simple and conclusive. in the case of karocel, that was exactly how they went about it and surprisingly, all six band members made it happen. though the four marbert rocels, mathias kaden and michael-mitchi-nagler have known each other from their hometown along the gera-jena-erfurt corridor, and the karocel live shows have been well received: an album is an entirely different beast.

masse as a whole event has been triggered by renowned state ensemble staatsballett berlin and club berghain right in the centre of the german capital. at the core of the dance night lies a tryptichon made out of pure sound: the music of henrik schwarz, dettmann, wiedemann and din (efdemin & marcel fengler) was taken as the starting point for the whole event.
