luc who? marianni? this reclusive french composer paved the underground music history with a handful of mind-blowing lps but still managed to surprisingly fall under the radar. even the experts seem to have forgotten about him when there were clues all over the place! it is true luc marianni didnt belong to no family but his own, with his constant work-in-progress through the gathering of friends and the odd random musical chance meeting.

nice price deal !!! as roche, bay area balearic boy ben winans designs long nostalgic nights with no sign of morning. on >a night at the haç<, his keys converse the epic dialogue of classic house thematics: high notes begging romantic love, low notes daring physical freedom. acid alien gears turn >insider outsider< into pivotless progression, straight ahead until the record breaks. side b sees >cg vision< through a fish-eye lens, all underwater bubbles n submarine wubbles as the synthy sea swells. finally, it is hi-hats off to the fx channel in >psycho zombie dreams<, a tunnel trauma of modulated raunch—seductive, intoxicating and mind-munching. haç is boss, now do the work.

another great release on the scythe squadron label with tracks from chris liberator / darc marc & athar / sterling moss and osmo!

standout track taken from don ninos latest album >in the backyard of your mind< (released in may), >beats< is about to take over your turntable for good thanks to three new remixes at the crossroads of the indie-pop and electronic music genres.
the original version of >beats< is a freaky and well-balanced piece of folk music. its lyrics are about body transportation and spiritual dematerialization. but in the hands of chloe, turzi and cubenx the beat boxes substitute the drums, the vocals get distorted, the track deconstructs itself as well as the walls fall between the genres.

vinyl only! first limited pressing comes in handnumbered, transparent yellow vinyl. handstemped artwork. dimi and jeroen delivers again a fantastic single with 3 amazing and mind tripping tunes. be sure to be fast cuz they are strictly limited.

burkhardts latest stroke, including the hit delight. now we are back again with a charming selection of remixes, including work by tobi neumann and julien veniel aka djulz. tobi neumanns remix reminds the attentive listener to the old days of oslo. it is so to speak on the point. its light, but still complex in a special way. tobi carefully unhinged the catchy vocals of delight, added it at some points and put his glance over it. the b-side is home to djulzs interpretation of pianissimo. a dark and powerful house track, that finds its glory in its simplicity. a subtle piano sample is the basis for a forward moving drum pattern. here and there an eerie vocal shot rises and guides the dancer through the musical mind of djulz.

patrick gallenmüller and maysam salehi alias pele & shawnecy the hard working guys from the south of germany,coming up with their second part of >kings of the garden part ii< . first track >savago< impresses with his groove and easiness and has already massive support from many headliners. second track >focus< is definitely putting the focus on the night,great tuff vocals from shawnecy himself. on the flip comes >passion< first really starting smooth than exploding in the middle of the track with a mighty bassline. last track on the vinyl edition one more flawless laxly track named >out of mind< perfect killer for every house set with additional vocals from shawnecy and the message >get back, relax and let your mind be free...<

assemble music returns with a three-track ep from colognes david joseph aka st. joseph, exploring further the refined, tripping path forged on the labels previous release from daze maxim. the pianos, vocal snatches and ambient hiss of josephs releases on platzhirsch are present and correct, but here the jazz flourishes are reduced down into something far slicker. these tracks have been prepared using a keen blade, and none sharper than >personal dancefloor<. heavy drum programming and a rumbling bottom end bring to mind theo parrish in his moodier moments, but the deal is sweetened by light piano, garage-like vocal samples and a deep, burning 4 love bassline. >indigo< spins the duke ellington classic into a spiralling, shuffling chugger that will bring a 30s harlem spirit to enterprising dancefloors. move the needle to the b2, though, for the eps party hit. written in 2009 and reflecting that years raw arrangements and joyous samples, >wave/table/muscle< finally gets a vinyl release, proving this sound endures to this day. expect more of the same from assemble music with their next release featuring vera and ricardo villalobos.

with his second release for planet mu this year, >dream on< is more of a full-length outing for ital aka daniel martin-mccormick and a much more substantial record than the popular and critically acclaimed >hive mind<.
on >dream on< ital takes his experimentation with house and techno forms even further, creating impressionistic deconstructions from the tropes of early house and techno. sunny chords, laid back drum shuffle and rhythmic vocal loops are picked apart and threaded with a rich psychodrama of delirious textures, tidal chords and uneasy roughness and dissonance.
vinyl format ships with digital download code.

mit einem beispielhaften sinn für melodien, todsicheren gitarrenstücken und donnerndem schlagzeug, bedienen zeus auf >busting visions< weit mehr als nur einen bestimmten stil - ein album, das erbarmungslos energisch und lärmend daherkommt. die 14 songs wurden innerhalb von zwei jahren geschrieben, während die band unermüdlich tourte. egal ob an einem klavier in der lobby eines hotels oder mit der gitarre auf der rückbank des vans: die vier jungs ließen es sich nicht nehmen, ihr album immer weiter zu entwickeln. >die geschichte dieses albums ist wirklich die erste von uns als band<, sagt frontmann mike o brien. >busting visions< erschien in nordamerika auf dem renommierten indielabel arts & crafts und wurde von so recordings (uk) für europa lizenisert. zeus spielen das diesjährige reeperbahn festival und kommen im dezember mit den stars auf bundesdeutsche tour.

its not so easy to pigeonhole de:pots musical style: deep, groovy, smoky and pending somewhere between akufen, krause duo and cypress hill. with his vinyl-debut for sophisticated helmsmen, the analog-studio-punk from the provincial backcountry of eastern germany now delivers a proper dope-house masterpiece, fairly dragging the anxious legs of any foggy dancefloor. bigbait012 – thats five tracks, five statements, five unmistakably groovy and well-hung slices of contemporary house-music, giving the listener the opportunity to get a hint of what crazy and freaked-out experiments de:pot has figured out in his mind – highly contaminated dancefloor drugs for shuffle addicts

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?

support by noir, sascha braemer, tiger stripes, m.in etc. while its getting colder outside, miyagi sends us beautiful melodies for the autumn. you will bet! but such as love the new rennbahn has got a lot more to offer! weird world is a dreamy & floating deep house track, which will levitate you over the dance floor. warm melodies combined with a heavy bass line make sure to catch the mind of the people. the remix of jaxson & david keno let disappear your thoughts in the straight beat and the floating and hypnotizing bass rhythm! this remix is anything but weird. on the b-side, medusa is waiting for you with deep sounds and a beautiful piano chord in order to take you on a journey through her walk of fame. dont you dare to look at her cause her dreadful sight will turn you into stone. with oliver schories remix you will discover an interplay between deep basses and beautiful highs accompanied by his typical piano sounds which finally come together to one gorgeous climax at the end of the track.

the superb sunshine reworks series reaches release number 5, and no surprise it is another seriously addictive duo of masterfully reinterpreted underground classics founded by one of the uks most respected djs and producers - dean sunshine smith & curated from a 30 year plus collection of mind-blowing music and frontline djing. this label has made quite a mark over the last three releases & justifiably so, these go way beyond the average cut n paste edit agend, taking firm favourites into altogether new directions. dean is a key member of the garden festival team out in croatia, he can be found residing in the sunshine season after season, where you can always find him sharing his warm & soulful selection.

following on from a pair of extended players released in 2011 (passed me by / we stay together), andy stott returns to modern love with luxury problems, an 8 track album of new material recorded over the last 12 months. five of the tracks on the album feature the voice of alison skidmore, andys onetime piano teacher whom he hadnt seen since he was a teenager back in 1996. there was no grand gesture in mind, it just sort of happened – but after almost a year of studio work the result is really quite unlike anything you will have heard from him before.

moody yet not morbid, futuristic but not foreign, modern but not without class.

we wish there were more moments like the ones that madis ones new 12 inch, in the image (blnk-27), brought to mind. >the hotness< is just that, a mechanical, bass driven, hip-hop cut while >the abyss< recalls the days when the amen break and substance reigned over celebrity status. available on 12 inch vinyl, cut at 45 rpm. we recommend trying these out at 33 rpm as well!

up next on scubas hotflush recordings is the stunning debut ep >forever for now< from 20 year-old duo shelter point. through the use of field recordings, upright pianos, their own chopped and screwed vocals and a varied palette of synths, the pair have created a lush and elegant four track love letter that is bound to make their contemporaries stand up and take note. >braille< sets the scene, its wistful, haunting vocals delicately slinking along to emotive and complex analogue synths, only slightly changing course on the vibrating and discordant 80s inspired >hold on me<. on the flip is the title track, a compelling and experimental piano ballad, rich with vinyl crackle and a bittersweet lyrical flow (forever burned your picture in my mind) followed by the pop-inspired >sleep easy<, a sweetly composed bedroom soul production kitted out with filtered synths and dubbed out atmospherics. a unique and memorable debut from a very bright new talent, shelter point is here to stay.

vinyl only! strong limited! raw oldschool, ass-shacking and mind-jacking mixup between chicago and detroit. be fast to get your hands on it!

brill deep groovin delicious house!! chicago inspired stuff

luca c & brigante are beginning to need no introduction as their heady balearic mix of sounds continue to resonate from the beach to the club. together, they have dropped bombs such as >different morals< feat. ali love and the robert owens fronted >tomorrow can wait<. luca c is also one half of infinity ink, whose >infinity< has been one of the summers biggest records, and a new addition to hot natured alongside jamie jones, ali love and lee foss. sebi aka brigante has remixed the new single from ali love, about to drop on no.19. aligning with the ancient mayan prophecy that the end of the world is due december 21st 2012, luca c & brigantes new single >flash of light< featuring dance music icon roisin murphy is a call to love like there is no tomorrow. embedded in heavy reverb and stripped back to slow steady drums, the mood rises as roisins crystalline vocals fall into rhythm and weightlessness builds with the bassline hook, pearly high-pitched strings and a burst of harmonic percussion.

fritz kalkbrenner hat mit >sick travellin< nicht nur das naechste kapitel seiner beeindruckenden karriere aufgeschlagen, sondern mit dem album nachdruecklich seine stellung als eine der wichtigsten deutschen stimmen an der schnittstelle zwischen club und pop untermauert.
