adult only shape is back with an intriguing collaboration, between the mysterious frenchie monsieur georget and young parisian talent le loup. a combination of the old skool with the new skool, the sounds are just that. each take a pounding bass and a solid minimal-tech stance and layer their character on top. a1 is scattered with futuristic bleeps and computerised murmurs, interspersed with reminiscing vocals, while a2 is the most raw in nature, with a tough techno feel until the smooth overtones set in and a feeling of euphoria takes over. but some may say b1 is say arguably the standout track, for its intoxicating vocal and irresistible underlying swing and groove.

obwohl er gerade das demolevel überschritten hatte, ging der ursprungstrack * howling* anfang 2012 (via dixons boiler room set) viral und erregte in der gesamten elektronischen musikszene aufmerksamkeit, erklomm charts und gewann awards. keiner der beiden beteiligten - singer/songwriter ry x und Âme-produzent/innervisions-chef frank wiedemann - hatte das erwartet. man beschloss kurzerhand, aus diesem erfolgreichen zufall ein projekt zu machen: howling war geboren. gleich die erste single * signs* ist ein perfektes aushängeschild für das anstehende album * sacred ground*. der nahezu hypnotische track zeigt den neuen, einzigartigen sound von howling auf: rys ätherische vocals, die über eine göttliche, minimalistische elektronische landschaft schweben. diese stimmung wird von den remixern aufgegriffen und betont: dem berliner berghain-resident und dystiopian-labelbetreiber rødhåd, kalabrese (von pitchfork als -erster großer Überläufer des minimal house seit matthew herbert- bezeichnet) sowie radio slave & thomas gandey

it has been a long time between drinks for german band bambi - and it is something of a triumphant return, too. last time we heard from them, back in 2000, they were a post minimal rock duo comprising of guitarist/vocalist robin van velzen and drummer hans christian fuss. a decade and a half of live improvisation and a multitude of collaborations later, they return as a balearic rock four-piece. the bands newest members, former mountaineer man frank mollena and sofia fuss, were asked to join following a particularly successful series of live collaborations and improvisational jams. through balearic post-rock territory, with van velzens weary, emotional vocals riding a wave of vibrant colours, backwards hazy, intoxicating and evocative, it sounds like a horizontal anthem in the making. one sided, hand numbered, limited to 500 copies.

today gregor returns home with two slamming new tracks, both of which are the result of hours of tweaking and testing whilst on the road this summer. midas is built around a stripped back single-riff groove. minimal elements and maximum effect show that gregor still has that midas touch. on the flip and easily living up to its name is disturber. its snarling synth takes centre stage, intimidating and unsettling. but as the kick drum thumps and the intensity builds, disturber suddenly returns to the dark shadows.
