after a couple of enchanted evenings in the company of guerilla dj and avid record collector brian morrison,the modern artifacts crew have been inspired to put together their next release which is two slabs of electronic badness for you vinyl fetishists

modern sun records presents its 3rd release, a dark, raw and soulfull house ep produced by skymark featuring the deep vocals of jair santiago. this new team has been recording a lot of tracks these last months, so this ep should be the beginning of a serie

the analogue project from m.whittaker, one half of demdike stare, comes up with a noise/experimental lp!

final part of abes mini series. hot wax. house or techno. we decide limited as usual. grab the rare colored wax final pressing pic upon release.

a - side: i love my lady (the black bahia version) ashley reworks an unreleased collaboration between chic and lounge legend johnny mathis. what ?!!!! this has summer anthem written all over it. beedle waves his magic wand over this future classic beach groove to create a joyful sing-a-long. b - side: addis ababa (afrikanz on marz kosmik rework ) ashley and his musical partner darren morris add their trippy aom vibes to this rare studio one classic to create an afro/reggae/drone/psychedelic monster. it pulls you in and does not let you out. this is an essential rework for all the true heads out there.

nice price deal !!! expect to get lured into the purple maze with this third release by the dutch imprint, once again by mysterious producer yør with his >modern slaves of contemporary contexts ep<. again it will be a shadowy and esoteric dancefloor experience like few others.

subversion: subversion was made by the dna strands of artist nick modern, featuring the vocals of inja, in a well kept secret scientific lab. this track has a pure venom snare that when it strikes leaves you powerless in its wake , face melting beats and a vocal that will make you spin and make you dizzy. snakecharmer: snake charmer, after walking in the desert for days , you begin to lose reality as the synth starts to build, it takes over your mind and starts mesmerizing you as you go on a journey into the space invader bass that keeps building and building until it blows you away. support by: dj nihal, kc, raskwane, cookie monsta, sunchase, radio1, rinse fm, get darker, demon, displaced paranormals, plastician, j da flex, hatcha, alley cat, sls

!! vinyl only release , 300 copies only !! > modern underground music< is a collection of tracks culled from many corners of the underground. hopefully the first in a series. i want to feature a cross-section of genres, with a slew of new artists you might not be familiar with. i guess i could go the easy route and sign tracks from c2, cvs, etc. but thats not really what b/c is about

winter is here meaning cold snaps, gritters, snowmen and of course, fina 006. the new record takes a different angle than previous releases, enlisting a few friends and local leeds gents to bring a cool little french-filtered number to the fina repertoire.

part of the 839 remix project we have the one and only pfms remix of touch feel and the epic jason os remix of solomon by justice & metro forthcoming pressed on vinyl packaged in a hand screen printed sleeve.

a - side: i aint hiding (heavy disco edit)
ashley gets low down and dirty with the southern rock giants the black crowes. their >i aint hiding< track was a real marmite moment for their fans. ashley (being a fan) turns the stonesy disco rock track (think miss you) inside out to create a psychedelic dancefloor wig out. already a big fave with the horse meat disco crew this has been one of mr beedles most requested edits/reworks over the last couple of years and he has decided to let this one out the vaults. its a monster.

limited white vinyl pressing !!! long awaited solo return of juan mendez to the sandwell camp. finally we have a solo return e.p. from sandwell mainstay silent servant and it doesnt disappoint

long awaited solo return of juan mendez to the sandwell camp. finally we have a solo return e.p. from sandwell mainstay silent servant and it doesnt disappoint. juan sticks to his trademark sheering sound-scapes and clattering lo-fi drums to take us away once again, superb.

g.h. is gary howell, longtime associate of modern love as one half of pendle coven and sometime contributor to the hate project. the ground ep features howells first material produced outside of pendle coven and takes on a much darker, more stripped down aesthetic - making use of location recordings amassed over the last decade. the title track extends over 7 minutes from a solitary bass pulse into a slow, three dimensional industrial reduction heaving with uncomfortable bass weight and a sense of nervous expectation. its like the bare, skeletal noise framework for darkest junglist hardcore stripped of its percussion - all bar a bass drum and intense shards of noise. albedo has more of a swing to it, dominated by a growling bassline and the metallic clunk of disjointed percussion at odds with the squashed funk lurking somewhere at its core. the template is extended on earth, a brilliantly discordant club variant that sounds like an r&b mastertrack exploded into 100 constituent parts and put together not entirely in the right order. it builds and collapses into itself, a stylistic oddity that at one and the same time brings to mind boards of canadas re- working of colonel abrams - trapped and the extreme frequency vortex of the raster noton lab

recorded in the immediate aftermath of his last ep >passed me by<, this new doublepack from andy stott features six new productions that are more desolate and exposed than anything on its predecessor. the opening >submission< tumbles into being with layers of washed-out digital revolutions, creating an artificial landscape thats quite at odds with the analogue machinations that follow - yet somehow rendering the alienated feel of this material perfectly. >posers< nudges its way into being abruptly and embeds another squashed funk variant thas all low-lit neon and growling textures, awkwardly shuffling into a more robust 4/4 template suffused with sparkling percussion and disembodied vocals. >bad wires< is the centrepiece of the ep, a relentless percussive cluster*ck that belies its slow tempo with a fearless rhythmic attitude. its as immersive and narcotic as anything ever produced by stott - peeling away one layer after another with each repeated listen. >we stay together< (part one) was the first track written for the ep and offers a more spacious narrative and a more sparkling, hazy palette - culminating in a beautifully frayed central hook thats somehow in keeping with the vhs aesthetic of both jamal moss and ferris bueller. >cherry eye< tumbles deep into a darkened hole before ep closer >cracked< turns up, fuelled by an odd mixture of adrenalin and sorrow to send you on your way.... buzzing and forlorn

tom giles previous twelve on modern soul saw him flex his muscles as a producer of sample-based wonky disco. this latest release, however, shows him stepping up to the challenge of crafting heavy boogie gems from scratch – with not a sample to be seen. the 12 inch kicks off with colour theory, a memorable mid-tempo number where crisp snares cracking between a lithe synth-line and a funk-bass backbone, featuring alex farrell of the london afrobeat collective on guitar. its a boogie daisy-cutter, packed, primed and ready for dropping on discerning dancefloors.

miles whittaker has been an integral part of the modern love label since its inception in 2002 - as one half of both pendle coven and demdike stare, as well as his own productions under the mlz and millie monikers. after almost 15 years writing music, this is the first release miles is putting out under his own name and marks a turning point of sorts in his production style, or rather, in its sequencing. the facets ep brings together different ends of his production style, unifying elements of the house and techno he s most commonly released as mlz together with the more broken production signatures usually reserved for millie and the darkened tribalism of demdike stare. flawed opens the set with a linn loop from the archives, stretched and slowed down with an intoxicated aesthetic that s somewhere between house and dub, before lustre re-configures source material originally keyed in by labelmate andy stott with a nice line in squashed percussion. primer on the flip extends from a demdike stare outtake and veers off into an analogue drum machine workout, before on the fly ends the set with a recording made straight to mixing desk from an array of mis-wired and malfunctioning drum boxes, contact microphones and samplers, over at his studio the mill earlier this year.

mini lp in limited clear vinyl and pink sleeves! 300 copies only

following vincenzos incredible wherever i lay my head longplayer, weve got more delights in store with this single including remixes from jimpster and the retro-tastic tuff city kids. seduction is the outcome of vincenzo teaming up with brazilian artist diogo accioly of talking props. the expertly crafted original version of seduction is included here in all its bright and airy glory. the master of subtle chord changes, captivating song-writing and bright, glistening production, we are treated to an extended version of vincenzos future classics! one of the uks most distinguished house activists, jimpster takes the reins in an easy going and summery modern chicago-style jam. raw drums and modulating bass drive this summery yet melancholic re-think. opening up the synths and reverb channels, jimpster introduces flourishes of effected vocals as he leads us deep into his swirling audio world

disco disco disco

the second outing from deepbass on his informa imprint comes around with 2 deep and dark techno-cuts and fine remixes by modern heads and schermate.

produced slowly and meticulously over the last 12 months, these seven tracks are the closet thing we have had to a new album from andy stott since the release of his debut full-length merciless five years ago. taking influence from an array of seemingly incoherent noises, from the indefinable and unforgettable mind- tricks of arthur russell to the slowhouse of kassem mosse, from the alternate vhs realities of james ferraro and jamal moss to the linn drum classics of the vintage prince era - these seven tracks create their own pace and agenda, largely shying away from the dancefloor in favour of something more complex and hard to define.

abe is back with a spring monster. three tracker ep of mystery and dancefloor madness. can you say vinyl only?

modern amusement is a new act from an established la recording artist known best for his hot creations. the release also features gps, a moniker taken on by a highly respected producer who has recorded for no. 19 and wolf + lamb. the >cold as ice ep< features 3 stunning records that cut up some rather distinctive vocal tracks in a trio of brillint original recordings.

first on decks .de !!! sa007 sees perc and modern heads create the first collaborations between these two core stroboscopic artefacts artists. the result is a punishing hybrid of percs dubstep tendencies and modern heads cutting techno. a-side >mendax< is cavernous. built upon solid dub foundations, it spills over into grinding, metallic territory. if the titles to be believed it takes inspiration from the shady world of lies and deceit. the atmosphere seems to agree, theres certainly something mendacious at work here. b1 takes the eps atmosphere and adds abrasion. in >percdax< cold, hard percussion is layered over a bed of warm dub. closer >moddax< errs on the eerie. it skulks, is full of sticky bleeps and the result is unnervingly dubbed out. all three track titles share the same suffix and if this indicates that they also share one quality its that theyre best heard in the glinting shadows of a club just before day break. sa007 was craftily mastered by artefacts mastering, berlin.

great 12 inch of edits and original tracks from clause four (dc, jahtari). a man to watch, his sound is big and this release showcases his skills to a tee.

liberation through hearing is the second part in demdike stares trilogy of albums for 2010. once again indebted to the black arts, the occult and tibetan spiritualism, there are dark currents running through these 6 pieces, each one referencing the six images displayed on the cover. demdike stare will be back later on this year with the third and final part in this mystical odyssey.

>vibrational studies (in echospace)< is an alternate version of album opener >in echospace< and revolves around a relentless cycle of washed-out analogue loops layered around submerged field recordings and electric currents that somehow propel the track while at the same time immersing it in one of the headiest mixes hitchell and modell have ever recorded. >symbolism in transition< finds modell deploying a deep and padded configuration with a sort of late night shuffle so beloved of move d, all squashed house vibes, sparkling melodic currents and bursts of barely- there white noise û its a gentle, beautiful thing.

demdike stares debut album >symbiosis< was released in late 2009 and explored sean canty and miles whittakers interest in re-appropriated found sounds of all colours and origins. fast adopted into the >hauntological< canon, the album evoked the noises and spirits of distant yet oddly familiar locations.

two and a half years after their debut lp, 23 seconds, dazzled critics and lit up dance floors worldwide, cobblestone jazz are back with a powerhouse new album that captures their live-in-the-studio energy like never before. a mixture of heady, jazz-inspired house grooves and below-the-belt analog funk, it raises the bar for electronic dance music in 2010.titled the modern deep left quartet, the record marks an important addition to the cobblestone jazz lineup, as the trio of mathew jonson, danuel tate and tyger dhula brings aboard colin de la plante (aka the mole). de la plante is no newcomer to the cobblestone crew: the four musicians have been playing together for nearly 15 years, since their first performances in small-town victoria, british columbia, and theyve all shared the stage as the modern deep left quartet

yes, its them: federleicht. no better way to start a label: the newcomers of the year have created here a playful and danceable track at the same piece: >rosa lee<. florian schirmacher and marc bammann made an apt remark in naming the ep >modern dada< to point out their ability to make a tribute to the free form. music with german lyrics for the dance floor, combining fragments, while this masterly sense of easiness, for which even the >supergooses< ep was rewarded as a masterpiece in the de:bug. formresonance devides their releases in solid, fluid and aeroform to restrain the musical spectrum which is indeed to be at the ready. solid in any case with both feet down-to-club. how nice … there should be the klub edit of rosa lee as well. in >lilly & douai (fluid)<, the duo spans such an emotional tension by overlaying approximately 80 radio tracks on which federleicht travels the two french industrial cities lille and douai, with the idea that these cities are nature reserves. such sensitive places they are…

cripsy and a little bit industrial flavoured darker techno killer

one-sided 12inch limited to 500 copies, mastered by dubplates and mastering, night jewel has been brewing in andy stotts laboratory for the last year, a real peak-time killer. info: >night jewel< is the first one-sided twelve on modern love for over a year and is andy stotts biggest club track since the release of his overnight sellout >hostile< 12 inch back in 2009. revolving around reverberating chords reminiscent of move d at his deadliest, its a track that just builds into a heaving mass of feelgood vibes, honed and primed for the floor.

every new record from mlz doesnt quite fit in with the one that preceded it, something thats doubly true for this new release.
>one cycle< on the a-side is probably the most fierce, stripped and relentless thing ever released by modern love, a classic reduction that rotates into a frenzied crescendo of panning stabs and a washed out, chugging backbone that doesnt let-up throughout its 7 minute duration.
the flipside offers up something else entirely, a remix for hitherto unknown operator dj ghosthunter, a shady character not quite ready to unmask himself. mlzs remix offers a dank and obliterated house configuration, guided by the spirit of theo parrish and kdj.

mark stewarts first new material for 2009 has been a long time coming and features three new tracks recorded earlier on this year.
>chadderton< on the a-side is an astonishing slice of deep and woozy midnight house, complete with sleazy chords and a frayed spine that is primed for peaktime narcosis.
>above< opens the flip with relentless chords and a shuffling percussive line that never lets up, while >great day< closes the ep with a cathartic spell that ends almost as soon as it begins, letting in rays of sunshine through the dense thicket of sound that preceeded it.

first seconds into already 27th release on recognition, and we immediately know that there is serious business going on here. stunningly complex drum track goes like clockwork, only setting the scene for what is to come. forget the craft of drum programming - we are talking another dimension here. >modern dance< is like being suddenly dropped into suspended animation: having that peculiar feeling that the world around is accelerating to the verge of a seizure - and at the same time this very world feels so slow... unnamable, transparent sheets of sound almost give no room to breathe - but ones breath is taken away by the magnificent landscape it s about to appear. shapes shift under half-closed eyelids, and while the low, peaceful yet sad chant comes in, one can feel it like an omnipresent breath, burning hot and marble cold at the same time. this mysterious and heart-wrenching voice comes courtesy of one yula, and were gonna surealy hear much more from her in the future. and it seems that the beats literally start to boil... rhythms shuffle and swing, and taken the lack of floating melodies abundant in jaceks earlier output this track is even more outstanding from theproducers former work - probably acting as a bridge towards new visions, appearing in the confidence of the new, almost-perfect studio.

early support: martin eyerer, monoroom, dave dk, smash tv, oliver koletzki, dirt crew, sasse,.
