massive versions by detroits theo parrish and burnt friedman!
theo roars into a fierce, uglier-than-ugly edit, with no let-up for thirteen minutes, when it crashes to a standstill: a hurtling, mesmerizing ride, multi-layered and clustered with synth washes, bleeps and alarms, galloping drums, clattering percussion.burnts shangaan variation is perforce more chilled, lithe, reverberating. the drums are crafted and fatback, with moody vocal interjections and haunting keys, chocka with dub thrills and spills, lethally spiked with bass.

incl theo parrish remix

heavy on the beats and vocoders with man parrish, sounds like early hip-hop and electro disco pop.. dub version on the flip !!

mr scruff & ge-ology remixes

after the trippy translations of the helium robot space trip called jarza, theo parrishs second and very welcomed visit to running back is all new material - almost. black mist in its extended version is just that: an extended take of the already released version on the rare-as-hens-teeth sketches pack. cut on 45, its a hard punch in the gut. techno-not-techno-house-not-house parrish power. previously unreleased and no less persuasive are pop off and wild out. while the first one centers around an endless piano and sucks you into the corny, but magic of repetition, the second one sounds like a theo parrish demo for dance mania after he came back from listening to lil louis at the bismark pavilion. mosh pit music. limited pressing in full printed sleeves.

the legendary man parrish is all set to return after a 20 year gap on dozer with what can only be described as the most influential record of the 80s hip hop bebop which has everyone from missy elliott to busta rhymes claiming to be a major influence on their career. the release of hip hop bebop comes with some pretty impressive remixes from man parrish himself, paul jackson, albert cabrera, the grid & solitaire!

huge detroit classic !!

that juan maclean is just a bundle of contradictions. here hes created one of the years best mix cds and not just a proper party mix, which it certainly is, but even what you might call an >important< mix, a timely lesson in the enduring spirit of house musicÑand how does he choose to describe the process of putting it together? as an >existential tailspin<!

2022 repress , theo parrish must have been in love when he recorded the a-side track >solitary flight<: a straighter and more flexed beat as usual with beautiful, dreamy jazz piano improvisation on top and a romantic, soundtrack-like string motifs underneath make up for a truly uplifting piece of soul music. the flip is on the rougher tip again with raw, clashing hi-hats and claps with a menacing, claustrophoic sound tapestry out of piano and synth chords in the back. sheer excellence from the man again!

repress - al dobson jr. returns to rhythm section international with his debut full length lp. spread over 28 tracks and clocking in at just under one hour, this body of work provides a glimpse into the mind of one of the uks most talented, enigmatic producers. al dobsons debut mini album marked the inauguration of bradley zeros fledgling label back in 2014, proving to be a breath of fresh air to the london scene with its loose, undefinable sound and unique approach to production. as a newcomer, al dobson jr.s music didnt remain a secret for long, with major global tastemakers such as gilles peterson, theo parrish, dego, alex nut and osunlade being early adopters. as with other key releases on 22a and izwid, it didnt take long for rye lane volume 1 to go from obscure debut to cult classic, propelling the artist and the label onto the international platform. at once a continuation and evolution of the sound, rye lane volumes ii & iii offers a deeper exploration into the al dobson jr universe, moving with ease through tempos and textures but never losing that effortless magic that makes adj stand out from the crowd.

after his banging ep 1 on aus, tee mangos back for the 5th installment in his tribute project, inspired by the much referenced theo parrish quote: love of the music should be the driving force of any producer, performer or dj. everything else stems from that core, that love. with that love, sampling can become a tribute, an expansion on ideas long forgotten, reconstruction, collage. time is now time is now comes off like adamski era seal rerub for the small hours. replete with hypnotic looped piano and drums sounding like they were lifted from vaughan mason s raze house archive. simply sweet sweet electronic music. make it last forever the b side is tee mango on home turf, with a selection of choice samples under his cap (from a record you might recognise), some simple loose sampled drums and a smattering of dub delay. love for this series coming from: axel boman, benji b, artwork, fred p, and a heap of others. these tribute releases sell out pretty quick, my hunch is that these will not hang about.

waellas choice launches with the bounce ep from warren harris aka hanna, member of theo parrishs the rotating assembly and sound signature regular. four deep and moving tracks of soulful house, including a mellow instrumental, two classic hanna grooves and one trippy, early morning roller. in warren s own words, this collection helps us return to an elegant way of life. waella s choice is run by andy lemay (dimensions festival), will edge (commune) and aaron levitt (stamp the wax)

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.

lena willikens is the kind of artist whos only capable of following one path her own. in many ways, shes the archetypal selector, an unpredictable dj who often eschews all notions of genre in favor of what she describes as different temperatures, different time zones, different moods and a healthy portion of chaos. although her methods have certainly proven effective on the dancefloor, willikens also refuses to be bound by its traditional limitations.

to progress towards a civilization which does not unconsciously perpetuate or aggravate inequality and poverty, we need to accept our many differences. for those who prefer uniformity or others who would rather avoid proximity, the celebration of diversity might sound ridiculous. a certain measure of discomfort is required to reach compassion. but peace through diversity is no prophet’s fantasy. it is no harder to imagine than the magical fact that we are alive right now. the eternal act of dancing is one of the most active form of contemplation. facing our own selves in the mirror of movement, we realize that we indeed are reflections of one another at all times. what will our own actions and thoughts feed around us? with over 30 years of combined dancefloor experience, possible futures have been witnesses to the wildest fauna and flora the great nocturnal jungle has to offer. sourcing their inspiration from the many shades of color that co-exist between black and white, it is through the open and eclectic selections of inspired and devoted luminaries that possible futures have found their manyfold sound: frankie knuckles, larry heard, francois k, carl craig, moritz von oswald, dj harvey, theo parrish, chez damier, ron trent, dj deep or moodymann, amongst so many others, have dedicated their lives to the flourishing of diversity on the dancefloor. while the minds of possible futures float in the air with their bodies rotating behind the turntables, their feet are steadily rooted in reality, enabling their musical knowledge to unfold beyond the night. through their own record label, possible futures share their therapeutic musical blends. the first two cuts come from the grooves of argentine old hand leonel, a family friend of long date. “antares” and “bunda” drag their dusty trails across different genres, to be enjoyed at 45 rotations per minute. curative properties guaranteed.
