mosco fell asleep and awoke days later with red axes. this is their joint offering for the esp institute. dikembe manutu, the fictional character whos name gives title to our thumping a side, establishes a lush theme based on meandering steel drums and reverberating toms while a slew of rich percussion leads us through the jungle on a melodic galloping bassline. once this deep groove gets us rolling, were treated to a variety of twinklling melodies that float high above. on side b, rage in the cage is a true live drum machine jam, full of bleeps, detuned toms, abrasive cymbals, and plenty of left turns. we can only imagine the mood in the studio as these three old friends frantically smacked buttons and tweaked knobs, creating happy accidents and loving every menacing moment of chaos as they stirred this cauldron. these two songs will make you thirst for exotic nectars.

yse saint laur ant has spent far too long writing and releasing music in one guise or another to endure writing clever promo/impress releases. instead, vinyl only wants to let the music speak for itself keep it simple if you dont like it today then thats cool, we get we cant please all the people, all of the time. however if don t buy from juno today please dont whine to us when you ll be forced to spend the better part of double/treble the price for this very same release on discogs in a few years time

repress !! following 2013s fantastical heat crime, tim further explores his unique take on house music with two original tracks which make stylistic nods to the past but lead us elatedly to a place of uncommon and personal vision. on the a side we have squiggles, a late night piece of tentacled whimsy. a joyful frolic in a fishy stream under the stars and in the japanese garden of your soul. like u want me 2 is a missive from yearning loins to a beloved recipient, whilst were both on earth in these fleshy suits.

he/at returns to his own label with four uncompromising workouts. rough beats, razor sharp synth work and booming bass merge to form this ep. taking cues from the harder fringes of chicago house and straight up detroit techno, this ep is as eclectic as it is tough.

i cannot make you understand. i cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me. i cannot even explain it to myself.

2016 repress! let -exu- under your skin and you will find a dream worth every breath and heartbeat it takes. this dream belongs to you now and it s up to you how you make it your own. -exu- was written by andre kronert over a six month period. -exu- is the force of creation, transformation, movement, and the power to change destiny. he represents the contact between the world of the unfathomable and the power to access that world. he is a being with one foot in both worlds and therefore is the linchpin of creation and its shaper. black 180g vinyl!

its not often you hear a techno record produced by a total of five people. when it happens, it’s usually to mark a passage and make a statement. sometimes it is a matter of celebrating a rita of passage, a shift into maturity and the embodiment of a new skin. this is what repitch is doing with the fourth and final installment in their “features” series, reuniting all the crew for the the final blast of what’s been a long and massive barrage of heavy techno. this is the collaboration to end them all: repitch founders ascion, d. carbone and shapenoise have shared the studio with longtime allies and. together, they explore a common ground made of pounding metallic percussions, gutwrenching bass and thick, furious grooves, with each producer bringing his own peculiar contributions to the table. this last installment marks the end of a process that accompanied repitch throughout its whole existence, thus enhancing the beginning of a new chapter in the label’s creative output.

2018 repress! common labour is back with another slamming compilation release. the four tracked 12” includes top notch offerings from an all-finnish producer guard. limited and vinyl only as per usual. a1 mirage man, born roope karhunen, has fingers in many pies. producing, performing and steering two record labels, this man does it all. fusion of noisy and raw rhythm section, sub bass and dub stabs in this track make a mean combo. a2 common labour head honcho potholes is back again with a funky tool. tabarnac is a mixture of live drumming and 303 licks in a skilfully produced manner. dreamy yet refreshing. b1 roberto spins silk with his old school rendition of the future - a fusion of deep house, latin, old school electro. surprisingly functional and unique combination which will challenge the audience to bust a few breakdance moves on the dance floor. b2 another ace from tuomas salmela’s sleeve. the trippy and balearic composition of -feroxified- takes the listener on a soothing journey that guarantees euphoric sensations. sterling track for most occasions.

releasing an album is a daunting task, especially in dance music. you got to keep it fresh and exciting from the very beginning until the last track, not sticking to one tempo, make tracks that work both at home and in the club and ultimately tell a story with your music. alexander lay-far knows a thing or two about this, having his debut album so many ways out back in 2013. the thing with lay-far and a big reason why we ve always had a soft spot for him is his way of incorporating a certain magic in the tracks that leaves you on an uplifting and optimistic note. therefore we re really excited to release his second album, how i communicate, on local talk. how i communicate is a two part vinyl release which we hope will come as a fresh breeze in these days where so much dance music simply lacks the actual musical aspect or the organic approach. like most producers and djs that are influenced by soul, disco, jazz and the blacker side of electronic dance music its all about the actual tune . listening (or dancing) through this album we hope you ll find your special tune (or tunes!) that hopefully will bring joy to your ears. to his aid lay-far has invited an impressive cast of collaborators such as ashley beedle & darren morris, restless soul, sean mccabe & mark de clive-lowe to give the tracks that little extra something under the watchful eye of lay-far himself. or as lay-far describes it himself the album is about the music as the universal language, the ultimate means of communication, bringing people of the world together. part 2 will be released in the new year...

the last few years has seen parris make a name for himself across a number of scenes, to the extent he is just as likely to be found spinning records for butterz as he is putting records out on berceuse heroique. here at idle hands we first touched base with parris many moons ago when he bought copies of the first release on his soundman chronicles label into our shop. as it is one of our favourite labels we were intrigued to hear what he would come up with as producer himself. needless to say we were impressed. presented here are two tracks that perfectly reflect his sound and our own a nod to techno here, a weighty bass line there, a love of reverb everywhere and all with a view to being played in dark rooms late at night. the 12 inch of burr and blue is idle hands last release of 2015 and we think it rounds off nicely what has been a great year for the label.

resopal retrieves two more smoldering remix cuts on transparent vinyl. safe to say that both of them - the a side by heidelberg s casio casino (aka steffen neuert of bergheim 34 ) together with lopazz - and the stunning b-side by our marseille connection roar - are absolute stompers. what we have here are two finely crafted remix versions of the original that seduce the dance floor in totally different ways. both contain perfectly structured arrangements that creep up on you with the stealth of a ninja, making them a real pleasure to mix with. the heidelberg guys show a minimal disco hybrid version of the original. from the moment the bassline emerges from a dense thicket of white noise the pair make their intentions clear. with expertly-crafted sequences punctuated by dramatic crescendos and distinctive mood changes their re-work is a melting pot of styles and influences that somehow manage to coexist, creating a rich montage of sounds and textures. on the b - french duo roar deliver hallucinogenic, long, patient grooves followed by some fantastically understated sonic tweaking which gives the track a real kick without ever losing that empty, laid back vibe.

nice price deal !!! after three stunning, floor-fired eps from the label boss himself, deetron takes his burgeoning character imprint to a whole new level of depth and diversity with old friends and new.

three impeccable pieces of stripped down, unfeigned tanz trax make out the debut release of esther silex – deejay extraordinaire, colognian woman-about-town and very dear new addition to the studio barnhus family. the gargantuan yet free-flowing bassline of hans, the menacing tension of heinrich and the dawntime anthem oskar are all testaments to esthers unquestionable status as an impassioned powerhouse with enough west german swagger to create timeless music with equal parts simplicity and beauty.

the eee ep is the all fresh debut from ensam, local vandal and core member of solkyss. born and raised troublemaker, he dropped out of school to make his way in to music. luckily he could spend his days hiding in his fathers basement which resulted in his project progressing secretly over the years granting him a distinct cinematic groove with deep and atmospheric aesthetics.

as a full-analog studio crack he has produced 5 albums and more than 50 eps with his very own interpretation of techno. his music still has a 90 s ghetto vibe, with as much energy as a punk band, but to make it clear to everyone, it s techno music to its essence. he has just finished new remixes for chicago legends robert armani and dj deeon, as well as for matthew herbert.

french producer juliano delivers the next ep, entitled * this must be...*, on his own imprint * that place records*. fourth in line on the label, following on from releases from visitors for reworks, mzkbx (aka sacha mambo) and love comedy, the now berlin-based artist gifts his very first ep to the collection. as a dj, juliano has spent the last 13 years honing his craft - first cutting his teeth holding down a residency at l ambassade, and then going on to play all over france and throughout europe. over a decade of digging and spinning has led juliano to develop a refined palette and a knack for finding tunes that make the dance floor bounce. strongly influenced by us house, * panaugust* is a real dance floor killer with its never ending synth. the more emotional * anthem for a friend* is a real tribute, drawing inspiration from chicago and detroit such as the real mess with its special rhythm & blues vibe. finally, cupid mess brings a touch of japanese mood, evoking images of an early-morning rising sun thanks to the classic juno6 sound. julianos ethos is that music should stay fun - preferring to keep things simple, but always real. watch out for this one.

after a brief hiatus komplex de deep and its chief protagonist master-h make a welcome return together to present the label’s twenty second release. in his very own words, -this is a new me-, h is now ready to unveil new music having been holed away in the studio for months on end mastering an array of new hardware and analog processes. the french producer is also challenging himself with the recording, locking down each individual track live and in one take. an art that was practiced by many of the jazz greats in their heyday and one that has also influenced the title of the new release - ’soul take’. as with all master-h productions we are drawn to the detail and emotion. ‘somba people’ with its inviting tribal rhythm pairs traditional african song with a warm and enveloping blanket of strings, handclaps and bass. the title track ramps things up with its bobbing drums, stabbing synth and echoing cowbell. one take and plenty of soul. komplex de deep are also happy to announce that they are now a strictly limited vinyl only label.

in all there are seven previously released tracks as well as five brand new, never before heard cuts, and they all make for absorbing listening both in the club, on headphones or from the sofa.

goldmin music label founder romain lanteaume alias einka meets detroit minimalism master terrence dixon aka population one for a truly conceptual techno 12-.. terrence dixon is one of our favorite artists and biggest inspiration.. detroitborn artist released his first 12- back in 1994 followed by several quintessential records and 2 epic albums -from the far future- on legendary berlin-based label tresor. terrence is not only a great techno producer who makes subwoofers roar in clubs, he is a man obsessed by a concept, an idea that he s following from the very beginning.. -minimalism- in the reaaaaal sense of the word.. for example, when thousands producers are wondering what s eventually missing in their new track, terrence is rather wondering what s useless, what could be removed and that s definitely what he gets to share on his own -reduction- imprint. after the release of terrence s track -steve austin s mile- on goldmin theme lp, romain got to meet him in detroit during summer 2014. the aim was to make an abstract record that could still be linked to a feeling or a situation.. a1 the edge track is probably a good example as it s designed and built to make you feel like you get closer and closer to the edge while the track is slowly growing until you fall.. can you feel it? :) as for the other tracks, there is also a special idea behind them but we better let you interpret it your way
