lithuanian mainstay donatello first appeared on norman hs stripped label back in 2012, and hes since returned for repeat trips into warm, polished progressive house. now he appears alongside shane blackshaw for a rare outing on vinyl with the immersive groover catch 23. undulating chords and dubby fx processing make for an intoxicating blend on both the vocal and instrumental mixes of the lead track, while label regular kastis torrau gets busy on the flip with a more brooding version of the original, using a similarly delicate sound palette but turning it to noirish chord progressions for the darker dancefloor

fear of flying return after a lengthy hiatus to celebrate their 10 year anniversary 6 months after it happened. so, tracks from label mainstay blm butt up against newer artists from across the eu, combining together to make a flavoursome sonic stew.

toy tonics mushroom house series brings together different shades of afro-weirdo-psychedelic vibes in dance music. all tracks have been made exclusively for toy tonics. the musical range is wide: the third ep goes from arabic guitars to nubian chants and looots of percussions. the bass drum is four-on-the-floor, but switches from midtempo (kiwi: we are here) to classic new york lofi disco grooves (ponty mython) the other 2 tracks on the ep feature an emptier vibe: less toms more drum machines. more techno. red axes deliever probably one of their weirdest works. their munk rework is pure craziness. the melodies come from another space. the last track on the ep is made by old toy tonics friends from milano: the barking dogs. they teamed up with tom trago in the basement studio of the great record store they run in milan: serendeepity records. they are known for selling obscure, but classy music for dance floors and thats what they do when the make music on their own. like on your high: an obscure groove meets a sloppy bassline and stoned vocals.

nous horizon is yukseks great studio album comeback, 5 years after his last album. yukseks characteristic sound, midway between post-disco, house and pop, shines through on its various tracks. even more than on his last album, living on the edge of time, yuksek shows his talent as a singer. nous horizon is an album of mostly duets, invitations to sing together (break my heart, sunrise, sweet addiction, stay) featuring greek singer monika, french pop bands her, juveniles and roman rappak (from band breton) his new melodies are sunnier than before his beats and production more subtle.

a1: solar reaction - asc is known for off the wall deep atmospheric music with a darker more menacing side to it, solar reaction encapsulates this to perfection. the usual asc trademark of quality is here in abundance, with intricate beats, as one would expect, accompanied with a mysterious dark atmosphere that evolves into something with a warm and more welcoming feeling. haunting chords and electrical static pulse sounds hypnotize and seduce the listener into a trance like state. the deeper drifty synth sounds drop with a friendly embrace on the ears and make you yearn for more. solar avoidance is a track of contrast is executed to great effect.

“sometimes life can kick you in the nads”, says dominick martin (aka calibre). “when life does do that, i need to make music like this. with its tones of hope and gospel-level layers of self-recorded vocals. raw, uplifting, soulfull...” even to the most ardent of calibre follower, “grow” sounds like nothing else he’s done before. yet it’s not actually on the album it gave a name to. partly because its ultimately positive veneer (even though it was written in the midst of two toxic relationships - one personal, one with the bottle) doesn’t quite complement the deeper, more contemplative aesthetic of the album. but also because this is the start of a whole new story for calibre...

lucidflow make a ninth journey onto wax with label co-owner nadja lind s tribe dub , and no punches have been pulled with the array of top drawer remixers on board - featuring brendon moeller, tigerskin & jack jenson, and terry lee brown jnr. nadja s original fires on all cylinders with a frantic sub-bass assault that isn t going to be happy unless your lungs have been thoroughly bruised by a main room s speaker stack. as the bass tumbles, phasing dub stabs gracefully arc into the stratosphere and back again.

propulsive rhythms from early drum machines, whirring electronics and dreamlike vocals make for a jaw-dropping late-career masterpiece from legendary japanese musician phew, recorded solo at phews home in tokyo.

when moiré decided to call his second album no future, he wasn’t trying to make a political statement so much as state the obvious: if humanity keeps heading down the hateful path outlined by certain right-wing political figures and recent political events, we might as well hit the nearest self-destruct button.

hotflush welcome lara wehbie aka blursome to the ranks with her debut ep “rendition of you”. raised in north carolina and currently residing in brooklyn, wehbie has come a long way since beginning to work on music in 2011 as a way of channeling her diagnosed depression and anxiety. she describes her work as a transitional darkness, something she says defined her sound even before she could manage the software she uses to make it. in her own words, “rendition of you ep signifies major transitions in my life over the past year and how my environment truly played a role in handling situations. it s a testament to how much happier i am now than i used to be. i still struggle but i m truly thankful for the influences i have around me that have made me a better individual and artist.” along the way she has attended the red bull music academy bass camp in 2015, and after an appearance on scuba s 2016 fabric mix, she debuts on the label with an experimental six track ep. side a of -rendition of you- introduces listeners to her experimental use of vocals and heavy percussive influences from the left field genre. side b dives straight into dance floor material with pounding kicks and and interjecting vocals, but then slowly winds down into a more melancholic ending with piercing synths rattling through to the last drop.

hello. we re very happy to announce the beginning of a new label. it has long been a hope of ours to someday establish a label to release our music, as well as an outlet for everything and anything we love and find inspiring. no compromises. introducing wulf. after years of sitting on un-released tracks some familiar and many others you will never have heard before we decided it was about time to make these available, freshly mastered. following on from ep1 and ep2 (originally released on alex nut s ho-tep records), the aptly named ep3 is the debut record on wulf. andrew harber and richard roberts aka letherette

dub is the keyword, techno is the way. the very first autarchy release represents a rapidly and constantly changing momentum. there is a black and white atmosphere that surrounds the whole vinyl four-tracker. the skilled italian duo alpi make their mark on the a side, together with the wrong assessment darker reinterpretation, shaped around solid textural processing and raw rhytmatics. it s mainly a techno release, yet xdb delivers his own breakbeatish and more reflective vision of the b side, produced by label artists complementary opposites. the label is at the moment under the radar, working through a connection operating into events, music production and label management in between italy and germany.

hot on the heels of great black merlin and david vunk releases omnidisc drops another hot one by shokh. a rocking 3 tracker of somed raw distorted electro along with bit crushed techno. thats how you make your debut!

selected advent deal. charlois present where is the champion, timothy j. fairplay s first full length solo album. twelve shifting, shuffling and shimmering tracks make up this debut. cruising the highways and byways between proto-techno, horror disco and forlorn wave, fairplay conjures up his creations from metal and smoke. saturated snares, clipped claps and warbling chords are dusted with distortion. and this idea of distortion, manipulation and the blurred line is omnipresent. innocent and sinister, cruel and playful, accepted boundaries are brazenly ignored as engines growl and synthlines soar.

„for the second release of berlin’s underground music label, ltd w/lbl presents four huge tracks dedicated to jazz and classical electronic music. from slow piano heavy house to deep moody jazzy vibes, this record even holds a classic.“

for its third volume jongno invites old collaborator and friend of the arts laura ingalls to the fold for more obscure korean edit madness. laura ingalls takes it down a notch with his signature endless dub delays and french touch filters, looping kim wan sun into oblivion on top of 707 daft beats, complete with guitar solo geekiness and spliced out vocals. on side b, mysterious digger and editor jongno edit takes the disco to the max on side a with a tina hwang facelift that will make you do the korean shuffle and back. loaded with bass slapness and disco synth toms this will fit right into the late night boogie and day light workout of anyone with a heartbeat.

played by sven vÄth !!!in a recent interview, i:cube mentioned how difficult it is to finish an album. he finally triumphed over the chimera and delivered a new ep – lucifer en discothèque – as a prelude to his forthcoming album (he must have fought the chimera for real!) after 15 years of an almost constant production, how can any artist possibly avoid the pitfall of repetition while re-inventing his style? cube delivers a masterly answer! as its name implies, transpiration (>perspiration< in english) is sure to make dance floors sweat around the globe. whats fascinating with these new tracks, especially transpiration, is the way chaix manages to reconcile the old with the new, his 15-year heritage of production with all the recent technological developments. this track reveals various influences, for instance todd terry, godfather of the 90s ny house, as well as sheffield rave parties of the same era yet revisited without an ounce of pomposity.

as yse saint laur ant, ant plate (one half of ever productive duo rhythm plate) takes some time out from crafting refined deep house music to indulge his more wayward tendencies. amongst the music coming to light in this intriguing diversion from a prolific artist is the fantastic just because, which comes on like early wagon christ material with a modern production sheen. space is defunct meanwhile slaps down some chugging 80s flavoured grooves, 2106 reaches for the boogie and dont make me think channels a laid back balearic mindset. it s a mixed bag of a record, make no mistake. that s also what makes it marvelous.

sometimes you can tell from the first listen of a recording that its creator has a totalizing vision that transcends time and genre. you will experience this rare sensation when you play panoram’s “a doom with a view”. the italian producer has tapped into a vein of surrealist sonic collage that s at once allusive and elusive. the album parades baffling micro-movements past your ears like a secret history of misunderstood musical remnants heard on damaged media formats, 50 years after a catastrophic disaster. it exposes continuity and logic as specious myths, jettisoning these vestigial elements in order to make space for a higher form of aural alchemy.

ghana soundz was the first ever soundway compilation and became recognised worldwide due to the licensing of the oscar sulley track, ‘bukom mashie’ to the soundtrack of hollywood blockbuster, ‘last king of scotland’.
pounding rhythms, blaring horns and pumping vocals – the music is a document of a time forgotten when flares and cuban heels strutted the streets and night-spots of accra, the sizzlingly hot and humid capital of ghana. influenced as much by traditional rhythms and local highlife as by the music of fela kuti, james brown and santana, these tunes had almost become extinct – until now!
ghana soundz was the first of three collections of rare afro-beat, afro-funk and afro-fusion that miles cleret painstakingly travelled the length and breadth of ghana to assemble, the third compilation to be released late 2009.
