der titel legt es schon nahe: >for now<, das zweite album des britischen 60s-retro-trios the bishops, ist eine art bestandsaufnahme. eine referenz an den moment, an das jetzt, das die gruppe aus london seit erscheinen ihres deb?talbums 2007 mit hunderten konzerten ausgiebig gelebt hat - u. a. als support f?r james blunt auf dessen europa-tour. so sind denn auch viele der songs von >for now< auf tour entstanden, aufgenommen wurden sie im sommer 2008 in london vom produzenten brian o?shaughnessey (primal scream, my bloody valentine). abgesehen von den klassischen dreimann-arrangements spielen the bishops auf >for now< auch mit ungewohnten instrumenten wie trompete, mundharmonika und klavier. rockig und im besten stil der kinks und fr?hen beatles ist das allemal, wie nummern wie >hold on<, >free to do what you want< und die erste single >city lights< beweisen. doch auch ein folksong wie >he was a friend of mine< schaffte es auf die platte.

stone cold classic funky disco floor filler thats stood the test of time. first time ever on 12inch!!! taken from the hard to find self titled lp by tommy stewart, bump & hustle music is the definitive disco funk party anthem. it was recorded in 1976 in atlanta, georgia, and since then the lp has found itself in the play boxes of soul, funk and jazz djs alike. however, its not until now that this amazing song has finally made it onto the preferred format of dance djs the world over û the 45rpm 12inch single. in 1976 tommy stewart was a busy man, working as an arranger, producer, performer and writer for a host of soul and rnb artists. the lp made for abraxas records was the first to go directly under his name, and although it failed to take off locally, the lp soon became known by djs across the world primarily for the club smash bump & hustle music. as it happens that song in particular almost didnt exist but for tommy needing to come up with something quick in order to fill in a gap in the album. conceived and recorded on the spur of the moment, and with backing vocals by isaac hayes singers hot buttered soul overdubbed later, its a superb example of rhythmic simplicity blended with soulful, catchy harmonies. its just impossible to listen to bump & hustle music without a broad smile coming to your face, and when played loud in a club, its impossible not to dance!

vinyl only !! come and spend a night at the brand new loop hotel...! its a one-ofa-kind international spot where quality, infectious house and techhouse music is piped into every room. so exclusive that its visitors wish to remain anonymous, we are left only to imagine who might be behind the project - yet its clear the calibre of the producer involved is very high indeed! based on the concept of a two track partnership, a solid state jacking groove is introduced, building up a musical statement with a combination of rich analogue equipment to create the vibe. the partner track then, removes all the previously explored musical elements, keeping the beats intact, and builds a new track again from the foundations up. room 101 is a tooly, playful house jam, whose strong opening beats provide the basis for a stylish array of synth themes, classic house organs and tweaked out acidic stabs to unfold. keeping the beats then, of course, room 102 takes things down a darker route, with a more reduced family of elements describing a heady, even more acidic late night moment. each track complements its brother remarkably well, and becomes engaging to hear how the emotions, flow and vibe are changed, while maintaining the same functional percussive elements in both tracks. watch out for this new series of releases, that explores the endless possibilities of hidden grooves locked inside the mind of their producer... ready to be expressed on vinyl! welcome to loop hotel.

igor from antwerp went a little crazy with one of his favorite pieces of music... but what igor did is not just another cover or re-intrepetation... he did make a highly expolsive track based on stravinsky s classic sacre du printemps. ok we agree.. that sounds kind of corny and pretentious... but somehow this bloke managed to get it all right. sounds like a forgotten techno classic from suburban knight who was recording with laurent garnier in his good old days and had henrick schwarz as studio engineer... a classic take on techno with a break that will revive more than one igor. this is a euphoric hands in the air, goose bumps al over record that works at the right moment.

the latest gigolo release is one for the summer! aptly titled hot it comes courtesy of ivano coppola and christian prommer, the former being one of italia s most respected dj s and the latter being, amongst other things, one of the main collaborators for hells critically acclaimed album teufelswerk. taking a sample from willie ninjas classic record hot and building a track around the chords and the vocal leads us to our starting point ivano coppola plastic mix!
ivano coppola has been the resident dj at milan s plastic club since 1992, so it is fair to say that he knows what works on a dance floor, or, to use a popular phrase, what is hot and what is not. it is with this historical knowledge that we find the genesis of our track. i found it necessary to go back in the past, to start producing once again in a 90 style - using samples. the next step was to come back into the future and reach out to christian prommer, highly respected by many including ivan i consider (christian prommer) one of the best producers of the moment! he loved the idea, the remix was huge, and so we decided to co-produce the record. simple!!!
but, for christian this was more then a remix, hence the co-production credit! i liked the idea of translating an early 90 s house-music-sample in to a sample-style-percussive-techno-tune. lots of live played drums and percussion in this one, of course. i only later learned that the sample we used is from one of my house music heroes, maws louie vega. naturally the record found its way into the hands of gigolo in the best way possible, and in the tradition of such a great record label – i played it at the gigolo night in munich and hell came to me dancing and took the tune into his heart.

phoniques unique vision of house music is continued with the next exciting release on his ladies & gentlemen imprint. serving as a teaser and a taster for the forthcoming >time for house< album, this ep holds three new and exclusive cuts. the album will feature these three lovely numbers, plus more hot new material from phonique, tigerskin, rubini and more. as the name suggests, >time for house< is an open-armed welcome into the blissful, warm and groovy, timeless house sound of l & g! dessous and poker flat key artist vincenzo has his say on the a side, with a long extended cut that gently builds lashings of tension and early morning drama with its deep stabbing push and open, floating breaks. as if we were soaring on the airy breeze of a warm summers evening, or raising our hands at an essential openair in berlin, >return of sha< captures that super elated feeling perfectly. vincenzo refines his sound once again, and marks a beautiful moment for the dancefloor, but also for more relaxed situations. fellow berliner tigerskin aka dub taylor aka alex kr³ger continues the summery, frozen-moment vibes with >too hot<. simple and classic synth hooks combine and layer to describe a chilled house jam that oozes positivity and good times. well known for his many aliases and wide variety of production styles, this track will not disappoint the deephouse heads out there, but will also please fans of his impeccable sound design and tasteful melodic abilities. belgiums kolombo aka olvier gregoire sends off the b side in style with his captivating classic deep dancefloor house exploration named >next dream<. wonderful, organic house sentiments meet characteristic percussion in this wonderfully sequenced conclusion to the ep. gregoire is by no means a newcomer, with countless releases and remixes under his belt, and the warmer-weather vibes of >next dream< works wonders as always!

one of rough trades island 50th anniversary selection - 50 crucial titles, specially selected by us to highlight the unique contribution this seminal label has made to british music since 1959. the results of nick drakes solo sessions were as harrowing and stark as anything by robert johnson or charley patton. enclosed in an inner world of psychological distress, drake recorded pink moons dispatches from a private hell that was simultaneously terrifying and beautiful. both the lyrics and the melodic motifs are pared to the bone here, their simplicity making them all the more immediately striking. the most nakedly emotional and disturbing moment is probably parasite, a visceral but mysterious account of a disconsolate soul roaming through the world in search of succor, with drake taking the starring role, ultimately offering, take a look, you may see me in the dirt. this was the end of the road for nick drake in more ways than one, but just the beginning for the scores of songwriters subsequently inspired by his bleak but beautiful visions.

yet another live/production outfit has sprouted from the fertile techno soil of amsterdam. its name - gimikk - echoes the unpretentious attitudes and sounds of our flourishing underground scene. it was the open and co-operative spirit of our new school techno generation that brought daniel sanchez and eelco augustijn aka. e-contact together. after two well-received eps and a lot of hard work their debute album is a fact. we present to you untitled concept, a killer collection of tracks set to shake up dancefloors around the globe.

one of the great aspects of the endlessly varying bass music soundwave is the way it seems able, even compelled, to fuse antecedant styles and genres to itself. in the most innovative hands, influences from last month are absorbed and reworked as smoothly as those from last century, and creativity sparks brightest when the marriage of form and function takes place beyond recognised boundaries? and it?s from that unrestricted zone that uk producer o-dessa emerges. opening with an initial resemblance in sound to the same plaintive blue air of burial, as these tracks resonate deeper in the mind, it becomes clear that this sonic affinity is merely a veil beneath which a new heart beats. the rhythms lurking below the bassline in ?deeper? are like some undiscovered amalgam of old skool hardcore and something you might hear on the latest dirty south mixtape, which somehow manage to defy sense and co-exist in a driving and breathtaking way. mournful mariachi horns and a plunging dub bassline intermingle in a desolate approximation of sergio leone?s western soundtracks, while reedy flutes and distant female voices build a swirling vapour through which skittering woodblocks and metallic ticks raise an anxious sense of motion. anchored by a vast, cone-melting sub-bass undertow, ?deeper? s treasures are buried well below the surface. the juxtapositional subtle-tear-out nature of o-dessa?s production is even more apparent in ?million dollarz?, which reveals itself in stages to be a gradual descent into layers of tweaked amen breaks, but with a grandeur unlike anything previously heard, even though that drum pattern has already been chopped countless ways over the years. it?s not until midway through its five-and-a-half minutes that the famous phased snares rise from the dense banks of atmospherics, but when they do, a moment of blurred euphoria hits and the tune bursts into colourful life. this 12¬ is the first broadcast of many more to come from o-dessa, as - like many have in their own way before and still more strive to do so now - he embarks on his individual journey in the continual reinvention of bass music. instant thrill junkies won?t find their fix in these grooves, but followers of the path less travelled will recognise many signs pointing the way to a rich future.

man of the moment joris voorn deliver his interpretation of wigald bonings kobra dance transforming the original up tempo jazz song into an exhilarating quincy jones meets nuphonic 2.0 disco tune. sheer bliss heavenly disco-dance. ooooo aahhh aaahhh! the original is taken from wigald bonings album jet set jazz. the original and the whole album by this famous german tv entertainer was co produced by christian prommer and roberto di gioia (marsmobil). on the flip side you ll find scandinavians dream team ost & kjex abducting the kobra dance to a very nice funky noisy eerie clickety clack electronic atmosphere. last but not least a top dub version of the joris voorn interpretation should please the floors all over.

itÆs been a couple of years since victim last released a full 12, but just like the buses you wait that long and then two come along at once. for victim, the >off piste< 12 follows hot on the heels of their split 12 with jerome hill & dont recordings. in the case of ben pest, they are coming thick and fast at the moment, with a recent release on lukes angers bonus round label, and an upcoming 12 on the seriously deranged panic bridge label. so, all in all a busy few months. as for the tracks, they all share in common a seriously weighty bottom end, and a tendency for crunchy acidic midsàbut that is kinda where the similarities end, as ben takes the opportunity to explore various avenues off the main street of techno. from the stomping acid workout of >zeedonk< to the more electro-influenced beats of >pain n gain< this is a record that covers a fair few bases (basses?), although all with the aim of thrilling a crowd that enjoys their techno on the gnarly side.

he s the man of the moment. james nidecker, rising star of the dutch technoscene, is always sure to raise an eyebrow or two. not only his djsets, where the amsterdam based artist is often getting the crowds wild with his dark gothpunklike outfits, but also his recent productions can be called mindblowing. nidecker perfectly knows how to combine his dark vocals with uplifting beats, combining influences from electro and minimal techno. s.t.a.l.k.e.r is the culmination of his talents, a hit record already wandering around the dutch clubscene for a while, now finally released on alexander koning s upstruct imprint.
the aside of this release provides a more than outstanding remix from dave ellesmere. renowned for his collaboration with producer 2000 and one under their name microfunk, but nowadays also reaching international fame under his own guise, ellesmere turns s.t.a.l.k.e.r into an ideal dj tool. with a length close to nine minutes, his mix slowly takes the funk of nidecker s rhythms to an upwinding, more techhouse based floorburner.
