glasgows junto club return with their second ep. in their own words. this is the second in our planned trilogy of junto club eps. if the first was the birth of the junto club, this is the middle-aged existential crisis. we ve followed the same ethos as the first ep, allowing the music to develop organically rather than being restricted by considerations of genre. naturally, this was shaped by our experiences of the first ep.

throughout the ages man has been obsessed with the idea of the dead coming back to us, either through the power of faith, magic and/or science, or as (horror) arousing visitations from beyond the grave. but cold hands like these neednt be physical: an ambiguous childhood memory, a few burning phrases from a book, or a short but powerful patchwork of tones and rhythms can also come back and haunt you when you least expect it. ritual malmö 02 consists of three such works that have haunted us for some time now, beseeching us to share them like cursed japanese vhs-tapes. who we are is not important - this is forever yours now.

it was too hard to resist another record store day outing once pontchartrain dropped these edits on us.

jey kurmis needs little introduction after an amazing 2015. the hot creations and moon harbour favorite delivers a stomping underground ep with fellow producer shannon. two underground bass driven tech originals are complimented with remixes from man of the moment jacky, whilst apollo 84 shows us why he s in demand for remixes with his collab alongside konflicted soul.

anno stamm, now with a long player for all city. great previous form for all city and meakusma under this guise but the man behind the anstam output. hot! a structured double pack from anno stamm designed as both a collection of singular parts which work on the dancefloor and blurring together for a coherent full length home stereo listening.

ghosts/spirits is the result of many exorcism sessions, most of them performed unknowingly. the tracks are numbered based on their order of collection. ghosts are generally subtle and linger around more than spirits, which are said to go straight to your mind’s heart. whether you long for a naked dance in the forest, or a subaquatic journey through mermaids and sunken ships, you are welcome to indulge in our musical exorcism, in the name of the tribal forces which brought us rhythm, and the spiritual forces which brought us together. ah,… man

forma di comunicazione alternativa e paradossalmente antimediatica

essential reissue!! the producer and dj from chicago joey kay published in 1994 an ep that soon became a favorite of the 90s house djs around the world: eclectiz ep . the legendary label house jam records was responsible for editing and selling it. nowadays, in 2016 (22 years later) the owners of the label bons records have been in contact with joey kay and they have been quick to reach an agreement to make a remastered edition of the great eclectiz ep including the same tracks that the original version but at an affordable price to everyone, not favoring the speculation around these kind of musical gems, mostly in platforms like discogs. eclectiz ep has been remastered by robert feuchtl (fat of excellence)

this promising israeli talent delivers two slow burning tracks oozing with eastern influence and informed by the modern sounds of dance. part of the 84% creativity crew, naduve presents his second release with cocktail d amore in the form of a two track ep which revels in it s dark and seductive energy. -no good news- builds over it s 7-minute run layering mystic vocal synths and coupling them with splashing hats and tight shakers to give just enough beat driven energy to keep a crowd to attention. the flying guitars and staccato synths of a trip in tel aviv slither over half beat percussive structures to give this track a sinister feel ideal for late, late, late nights. wunderkind man power drops a tab on a trip, giving it a fresh take perfect for psychedelically inclined moments.

despite building their careers out of strikingly different musical places, both dbridge and radioactive man have taken influence from the field in which each other operate. dbridge (darren white) was part of the iconic drum & bass outfit bad company and he helms one of the scene’s most solid and quality imprints in exit records and radioactive man (keith tenniswood) was born from the acid house scene and the off kilter electronics of his two lone swordsman projects (alongside andrew weatherall) which led him to create his decidedly uk take on drexciyan electro. it’s by no means a stretch to learn that both producers have crates that contain their favourites from each genre but they’ve also found a mutual respect and connection in the studio over the last few years, leading to the dbrm moniker for craig richards the nothing special label.

slovenias prime annual selection of dubbed out electronica gets an extra boost with 4 new artists. the compilation effortlesly swivels between electronic soundscapes and organic dub. equally enjoyable in a cozy home enviroment and in darker club atmosphere.

following his uplifting 2015 single holdin on and its techy b-side faces, rony seikaly is back for another release on yoshitoshi that proves this renaissance man is a force to be reckoned with in modern house music. the two tracks on this ep possess deep grooves, but also flex a fair amount of melodic muscle. they liken back to the sound yoshitoshi became well known for in its infancy. the sword centers around some tribal percussion and carefully woven melodic ideas, but the track?s focus is decidedly on low end. a burly, assertive bass gives the mix a driving character suited for late nights. at time it feels like a modern take on progressive house from another era. all of a sudden is more or less an extension of the first track, giving the ep defined consistency. it s a delicately arranged and straightforward house feeler, the meat coming from a multitude of interlaced chords and melodies maneuvering carefully over more tribal percussion and a monstrous kick. the mission here is to inspire awe and wonder in dancers, and seikaly delivers on both accounts.

a key artist in the shaping of electronic music, dan curtin has explored many styles in his career and now he has come full circle. the hardware repopulates the studio, bringing with it the inventive, organic techno sound he is most fondly known for, this time with a modern twist. these tracks take you to the heart of the man and are some of his best work.

from the depths of the dark net come telkhin, the latest addition to the shipwrec roster. following earth being recycled on detroit underground, the argentine project are debuting on vinyl with five tracks of off-world electronics. the chilling atmospherics of -body container- meet the needle before an electro iciness takes hold. spiking snares and echoed radiowaves orbit the moody walk in, that same frosted futurism central to level above human. telkhin melts man and machine, giving the computer age a humanoid form. processors whirr in the bassy bleeps and residues of brithomber before the final statement. leaving the human world behind flight 19 is a fast and future funk driven piece of 2050 music. forget the past, embrace the next step. limited run of 150 coloured copies.

next up on africa seven is the second edition of our -african funk experimentals- lps. with these we took some of our favourite african artists, choose the most funky we can find and then put together a compilation of their choicest and funkiest tracks. of course that may not be their most popular or best selling tracks..., but that s just fine. we are digging for the funk.

using the success of his album “swinger” as a door opener in america, mano meter has also grooved straight into the hearts of artists like parov stelar, simina grigoriu - paul kalkbrenner’s wife and alle farben. it was only a matter of time, to present his latest work from the studio. together with david gerlach, who’s kind of an wunderkind on the piano, he has produced a song called “polyphobia”. you’ll find a pearly, extremely fresh groove which has already influenced dancefloors from europe all the way to burning man! he finally had mercy with the ordinary music lovers and released this well kept secret to the public on vinyl and digital! it has been enhanced with remixes from der schmeisser & der tietz, das fachpersonal and nikolas noam.

after a relatively quiet 2015 which saw brooklyns throne of blood release the third volume in the moon rock ambient series and a handful of singles from man power, jimi after, and vito & druzzi, things are already heating up for 2016.

gari romalis and lello di franco - dreamin for the uninitiated, our man gary romalis is the unsung master of detroit’s house and techno scene. having djed across the motor city’s top venues for the last three decades, gary is somewhat of a seminal figure for many of detroit’s djs currently at the forefront. following a slew of high quality releases on various labels over the past few years, gary now unleashes that special flavour on us for skylax 142! he is not alone though. with him, he brings all round italian partymaker, and top selector in his own right, lello di franco. let me tell you, this duo’s collaboration is something to behold. throughout all 3 tracks on the record, gary and lello maintain the essence of what the detroit underground is all about, stripped back tracks with soul that never feel like they go ‘big’ for the sake of it. while dreamin (wanda mix) may be packing a big kick and power clap combo, it’s the elegantly filtered, jazzy sample that will leave you wishing that the track lasted forever. the vibe takes a dip right into the deep in detroit underground (beat dat mix). spacious pad synths alongside a mesmeric vocal carry us through. taking a step back up, afrobeat rounds off the ep, made with a solid toolkit of afro-centric samples.

mute records presents the 1994 longplayer from erasure as limited edition reissue on 180 gram vinyl.

1 sided + large gravure on other side. love on the rocks is very excited to present sharif laffrey’s key jam (a.c.i.d.). his first release since the sleeper hit turn it up was released on discos capablanca over two years ago. key jam (a.c.i.d.) is the treasure + the mystery. laffrey’s signature raw edit style is in full effect on this 9-minute proto-dance heater. sharif laffrey has been playing records and making music for 20 long hard years. born in detroit, michigan - he’s worked on the line checking camshafts for chryslers & at submerge for mike banks - at the same time. he toured asia with juan atkins and once had to chase a grown man through the streets at night, who had crawled into his living room through a open window. an active member in detroit’s early rave scene, sharif remembers booking all foreign gigs with a fax machine - and would still do it that way, if anybody else had them anymore. he drove a black trans-am from 1990 to 1995. acid, tons of random stuff, tough, sexy, lovely, slow. freak mode. he is dealing with the fame. more to come.

after kicking off 2016 with the massive don t need ep from callahan featuring that remix from man of-the-moment hodge, dext is back with another banger of an ep from fast rising uk producer mella dee. the man from doncaster, uk has been creating a name for himself on the scene of late with releases on redlight s lobster boy and shy fx s digital soundboy imprint, and his dext debut certainly doesn t disappoint. over the last year or so, he has been masterfully fusing 90 s jungle influences with driving house & techno percussion and his ep for us is, we think, his strongest work to date.

on its sophomore release, raar s bold mission of unbridled techno with a punk-rock ethos is continued in tracks from label co-founder maelstrom and newest family member, specialivery. opium wars sets a seething tone, deftly holding a line of tension as machines moan and shriek. focused yet dissonant, the discomfort continues to build without resolution, playing the edge but never grasping hold . diameter of recess starts under the skin in maelstrom s typified controlled chaos. as it grows, the track becomes both an aching roar and a needle-sharp, frenzied insistence, a feral yearning and a frustrated surrender. swiss italian carlo bernasconi is a man of many aliases, the most ferocious of which is specialivery. having eagerly taken up the challenge to push further than the original demos sent, dust detector subsystem is a demonstration of this, cumulating in -an extremely rare, compulsive mental movement- presented in both teeth-bared, club-optimized and more pensive beatless versions. it is with great pride and pleasure that we present the evolution of raar. it is our greatest hope that this work inspires and liberates its listeners. released on 12inch via the vinyl factory

the german saying *ist der ruf erst ruiniert, lebt man voellig ungeniert.*, meaning once your reputation is ruined, your life gets easy, sums up a lot about furfriend s artistic doing. *freedom of filth* lives tightly along those lines and throws its full force of lushness at you, growing into an empowering industrial monster that makes you want you to rip all clothes off your body. if jfk did it, so can you. if big room sound is too much for you and you miss the simplicity and pervy voice of dingo tush that made the duo famous, you will wanna follow their instructions for self appreciation and have a listen to *touch myself*, a trainlike fuckfest for the dancefloor. make sure to bring some lube! following is a short live recording from the *fuck olympics* ... we are just going to leave this uncommented here.

szary und sascha sind sich einig, dass moderat schrittweise das produzieren von tracks gegen ein traditionelleres komponieren von songs eingetauscht hat — ein prozess, der sich vor allem auf iii vollzieht. »stell dir vor, du sitzt im kino und siehst einen film mit einem unglaublichen soundtrack«, beschreibt szary die idee hinter moderat. das gilt für die band im allgemeinen, aber besonders für iii, wo dynamische sounds und bildhafte texte einen tiefgründigen emotionalen sog erzeugen. das trio modernisiert die songwriting-tradition mit einer faszinierenden palette aus können und hingebungsvoller perfektion, geprägt durch ihre »erfahrung mit sounds aus fast 25 jahren sub- und clubkultur«. auf dieser gemeinsamen basis steht iii für pop im modernsten sinne — ein erfolg, den die musiker gemeinsam erreicht haben. »ich glaube, unsere musik ist reifer geworden«, merkt gernot bescheiden an. wir sagen: auf moderat iii hört man eine band auf dem höhepunkt ihres schaffens.

inspiriert vom post-minimalismus und modernen klassizismus von zeitgenössischen produzenten wie nils frahm, max richter oder steve reich, legt sasha ein neues album in der late night tales reihe vor, das seinen bewährten style aus club-electronica und trance/progressive um neue facetten erweitert und bereichert. so hören wir einen neuen, hypnotischen, süchtig machenden sound, präsentiert im longplayerformat, irgendwo zwischen einem mixset, einem studioalbum und einem soundtrack zu einem imaginären, nächtlichen spaziergang. der song bring on the night-time ist eine vocal kooperation mit ultraista, dem projekt des radiohead-produzentn nigel goodrich, der auch zusätzliche keyboards beisteuert. scene delete ist der ideale soundtrack für perfektes kopfkino, für das man vorher das licht ausschalten sollte!
