time waits for no man, but venerable new york emcee and producer roc marci remains a rare exception to the rule. enchanting listeners with his dexterous lyricism, methodically soulful beats, and steely persona on releases like 2010 s critically-acclaimed marcberg, and his revered 2012 effort, reloaded, the pride of hempstead, long island emerges from the shadows after a three-year hiatus with the equally spellbinding rosebudd s revenge. this is the rapper s fourth studio album. aside from appearances on landmark releases, including de la soul s grammy-nominated and the anonymous nobody, and ka s days with dr. yen lo, roc marci s presence has been scarce, making rosebudd s revenge one of the more anticipated hip-hop releases of 2017.

mit der neupressung von -loop-finding-jazz-records- als doppel-lp (inlusive downloadcode) ist 16 jahre nach der erstveröffentlichung ein meilenstein deutscher minimalelektronik wieder verfügbar. das stilprägende album erschien 2001 auf dem wunderbaren berliner label scape, wo es zwischen den knister-, hall- und frickel-klängen eines pole, kit claytons und burnt friedmans hineinpasste, wie die faust aufs auge. mit jazz hatte das ganze natürlich nichts am hut, vielmehr mit clicks & cuts und glitschenden microsounds, die seinerzeit hoch im kurs standen. das szenemagazin -groove- nahm -loop-finding-jazz-records- 2013 in die liste der besten 50 elektronischen alben auf. kollege tobias thomas von kompakt schrieb in seiner laudatio: -seine clicks und cuts waren wie funkelnde fragmente, die man aus einem großen diamanten herausgelöst hatte. umhüllt von digitalem sternenstaub, dabei nie kalt, sondern geschmeidig und feinstofflich dahingroovend, bewegten sich seine tracks wie ein amalgam von ambient, freier elektronika und sehr tiefer, sehr reduzierter house music.- die neuauflage von -loop-finding-jazz-records- enthält die beiden bonustracks -moiré (guitar & horns)- und -poren-, die ursprünglich b-seiten-stücke der 2000 ebenfalls bei scape erschienen -tendency ep- waren

wenn sich musiker wie sufjan stevens, bryce dessner, nico muhly und james mcalister für ein album zusammentun, ist die welt natürlich nicht groß genug. auf ihrer einspielung -planetarium- vertonen und besingen sie deshalb unser komplettes sonnensystem. die idee zu diesem konzeptalbum schwirrte schon etwas länger in sufjan stevens kopf herum. konkret wurde sie allerdings erst, als die konzerthalle muziekgebouw in eindhoven nico muhly den auftrag zu einer komposition erteilte. sofort dachte er an eine kollaboration mit seinen freunden dessner, stevens und mcalister. doch nachdem man das stück gemeinsam fertiggestellt und aufgeführt hatte, legte man das junge projekt erst einmal auf eis. im anschluss veröffentlichte bryce dessner mit seiner band the national -trouble will find me-, sufjan brachte sein album -carrie & lowell- heraus und nahm anschließend mcallister mit auf tour, und muhly komponierte ein violinen- konzert für die metropolitan opera. schließlich kehrten stevens und mcalister 2016 mit einigen songskizzen zurück ins studio, wo dann richtige stücke entstanden, die mit den mitteln von prog rock, elektronik und indie durch das universum schweben.

smile for a while has recently moved to berlin and calls for jana falcon, a local, emerging house music producer . -falling (again boy)- is an intricate fusion of garage and house textures, it s a sultry, catchy tune with stunning spoken-word vocals and a bed of fuzzy beats that give it a really contemporary gloss. things then go off in another direction with the brilliantly named, -contemplation of inadequacy-. this one is crafted on another hypnotic tip, drawing the listener in with another bevy of atmospheric vocals and a bassline that s pure fire. in -petrias house- jana goes for a more upfront house sound. simmering piano keys lend this one a sun-soaked flourish, precisely the tonic for the fast-approaching summer. the release closes with a thoroughly banging remix by we play house man, dynamodyse. a tune that s thoroughly engaging and is sure to get your head in

britischer folk-troubadour richard dawson legt neues album peasant vor! der gitarrist und sänger richard dawson genießt bei sich zuhause in newcastle legendenstatus im bereich des progressiven folk. ende 2014 legte er mit seinem ersten domino-album nothing important ein inbrünstiges mammut-werk vor (4 songs, 45min laufzeit). hörer dieses albums verstanden schnell, dass der scheinbar schüchterne titel nur mit einem großen augenzwinkern zu verstehen sei. das spex-magazin ernannte nothing important kurzerhand zum album der ausgabe (nov 2014). man dachte, dawson könne dieses musikalische statement schwerlich toppen. auf seinem neuen album peasant beweist er das gegenteil. aus bipolaren song dekonstruktionen wurden folk-bronzen ganz neuer qualität (ogre). seine minimalistische wucht wurde mit fast biblischen chören aufgestockt (weaver). und die atonalität ist mit hilfe von so imposanten wie feinfühligen arrangements in richtung geschmeidigkeit verschoben (beggar). die epischen songs mit Überlänge aber sind aus dawsons song-universum natürlich auch auf peasant nicht wegzudenken (masseuse). es wäre falsch zu behaupten, dawson hätte an schrulligkeit und scharfen kanten verloren. die wird man ihm nie austreiben können. peasant jedoch wird eine neue welle von dawson-anhängern mit sich bringen. er ist und bleibt ein britischer troubadour, wie es ihn nur einmal gibt.

things have been heating up on lee burridge’s smouldering get weird label in the last year. picking up serious momentum with a consistent flow dispatches from the likes of dance spirit, hauy, superlounge, tim green and more, each release has been a startling jolt from the all-too-comfortable road-middle into more diverse, uncharted pastures deep in the sweet spot between house, techno and electronica. this next release from brand new artist kaled is certainly no exception. get weird? get to know… tunisian kaled shows depth, range and rudiments beyond his early-man status. a deep musical spirit with a penchant for poignancy, taste for theatre and strong sense of restraint, there’s a timeless evocative feel running throughout each of these three unhurried, subtly-orchestrated gems. ‘the field & the sun’ sets the scene, a palpitating progressive beat is laced with strident string strikes that build layer upon layer, creating a cushion for a goosebump-inducing late-entering piano line. ‘nemo’, meanwhile, finds itself in the midst of another swooning set of strings. ignited by a percussive pebbledash and leading with the distinctive middle eastern instrumentation, the backbone is maintained by a devilishly simple and hypnotic synth riff that holds everything together

what a man really has, is what is in him. what is outside of him should be a matter of no importance. after silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

dead rail is a soundshaping railroad soaked in fog and cough.
dead rail is the breath that transforms light into smoke, smoke into brain waves and brain waves into some anamorphic sound blend.
dead rail is a walk through an eyeburning beat and runs on mandibular tracks.
dead rail is the dark corner of a party where the tones are stagnant in a motionless dynamic.
dead rail is the suspended activity of synapses while earing is driving the other senses.
dead rail is the dying frequency in your ear.
dead rail is noise from within.
