six years after their debut release on all inn, premiesku is back to the label with a brand new three tracker. last man on moon brings the usual winner formula of the trio. the proper hypnosis of drum machines, featherweight spacey themes with a pinch of classical house flavour on the top. a must have record for all periods of the weekend.

composed of members buckshot, 5ft, and dj evil dee, black moon simultaneously kicked off and defined the rap renaissance of new york with the release of enta da stage in 1993. whereas plenty of earlier groups had spit rage-flled rhymes to tear down the world’s unjust establishments, no one had evoked brooding pathos or introspective anger quite like black moon.

italian duo minimono are next to release on elephant moon. side a takes off with the title track, a funky number with groovy bassline, timeless beats and glorious pads. next up is cronimo , which has a disco-inflected rhythm at its core. on the flip, long afterwards maintains the unmistakeable minimono sound, introducing vocal clips to bring a human element to the music this is a jazzy, funk-laced roll out. finally, i see you brings things down to a slower pace which gives you time to absorb the whole ep while also investigating new terrain. a beautiful collection of music we re sure you ll agree. catch it while you can!

paul hester created his cult moon music label in 1997 as a portal for his own productions and sounds. the label was short-lived, with only 3 releases in it s catalogue, all produced by hester himself. those few releases on moon are now highly sought after among house and techno aficionados who are forever seeking that deeper groove. the interesting part of this story, beyond the amazing music that was released, is that there are many other tracks that never saw the light of the day, thus leaving the full moon story untold. roll on to the year 2000, hester unleashes the never enough ep, a 4 track collection of tracks that ooze his own unique sound. deep, rolling, crisp drum programming, breakbeats and swelling synth pads all form the classic moon music vibe. this fully remastered reissues tracks are all lovingly transferred from paul hester s private, personal dat stash. classic, deep uk techno sounds from the pre-millenium era, re-presented for the first time for 2017s dancefloors. across this ep we are treated to a sound that is timeless and will undoubtedly gain paul hester new fans while reminding those of us who were there in the late 90s / early noughties about his subtle and uniquely fresh production style.

after already putting out great efforts from the likes of josh wink and jesse rose, moon harbour serves up a second selection of remixes of key tracks from matthias tanzmann s 2016 album, momentum.

elephant moon proudly welcomes one of our good friends from barcelona, sonodab.
sonold is the starting point for this four-track ep. there’s a distinct air of mystery looming over this minimal workout. the globulous bassline bounces along supporting by clapping beats with an eerie tone that prevails throughout.
this is followed by more alluring atmospherics on ‘aporia’, a track that has an elastic b-line and every once in a while an enchanting melody drifts in, switching up the vibe turning things a little more dreamlike.
turn the record and prepare to embark on a ‘random night’. this is sonodab turning up the energy levels and taking you on a trip into another dimension to close out the ep ‘elecmann’, plays out like an ode to the good old electro days, slightly reminicent of juan atkins’ early work as model500. like the rest of the tracks on this release, sonodab adds soft pads in places to change the mood and keep things moving.

over 37 minutes of deep dream bliss and celestial beats. featuring vocals by ed macfarlane and remixes by nick mackrory, len leise and marius circus.

das könnte leicht schnulzig oder sogar esoterisch wirken. der fakt, dass dem nicht so ist, ist die große stärke von patrick o laoghaire aka i have a tribe. mit seinen gefühlen im reinen zu sein und diese durch die musik auszudrücken. nicht einfach einem trend folgen oder mit einfachen musiktheoretischen strukturen radio-hit-singles produzieren. wie schon davor, lassen die songs auf diesem album viel platz für patrick’s stimme, manchmal kann man sogar den parkett boden unter den füßen knarzen hören. seine interpretation des instruments ist hoch innovativ, er lockt melodien hervor und produziert unprätentiöse rhythmen. vermittelt seine beobachtungen, gedanken und emotionen auf zwei ebenen. das klavier und seine stimme sind die eckpfeiler von “beneath a yellow moon”, und patrick ist von beidem ein meister.
