deepblak’s chief alchemist aybee releases his fourth full-length studio album, the odyssey. as befitting its grand title, this newest long-player finds him concerned with personal journeys: both the personal one that has brought him to this point - living in berlin, 15 years since founding deepblak in his native oakland - and the one that beckons for him personally and creatively in future: aybee sees himself as being halfway up a mountain, looking back on where he has come from, and to where he will be headed next - both concepts play a profound role in the emotional textures of the album, which in true deepblak fashion draws from jazz, deep house, techno, hip hop, blues, experimentation, cinema, space, time and infinity.

its the music of the space that extends between oceans and mountain slopes. its the music of the space that is much bigger and much more adventurous than the four walls of a club look like. its the latest record on acker, and it orbits around a song from il civetto. the band from berlin is a wonderfully multicultural bunch. their sound is reminiscent of gypsy, folk or swing, but at the same time it doesnt really fit any of these labels. liberté ana is a perfect example. monolink turns this track into a groovy downbeat tune that vibrates much higher than its low bpm count - the perfect soundtrack for laid-back afternoons or afterhours. pophop does what he does best: party. however, between the catchy bassline and the tight percussions of his remix theres still a lot of space for the soul of liberté ana. umami goes even further and creates an ecstatic banger that has everything it takes to be played during the prime time on the dance floor.

ali renaults vivod label continues to bring the goods, as recent missives from skatebard and monkeyshop (their first release of any sort for 11 years) emphatically prove. the imprints latest release comes from newcomer paul withey, who follows up a fine contribution to a recent split e.o on ruby hills & diamond mountain, with a debut solo e.p of his own. the five tracks featured are nicely varied stylistically, but all boast the distinctive shimmer of analogue synthesizers and dusty drum machines. highlights include the surging italo-disco revivalism of -pallas-, cheerily positive synth-pop flex of -yes master-, and the curious, radiophonic workshop style weirdness of -beneath the surface-.

after showcasing the debut releases from the high on wye quintet (magic mountain high, soulphiction and steevio) and monoak, the freerotation label returns with a various artists 12” featuring four more artists intrinsically linked by the annual festival. anthony child, aka surgeon, has been a regular fixture since first appearing at freerotation in 2011. his recent exploration of modular synthesis and use of the buchla music easel has found a home in the ambient yurt at the festival, and equally has manifested in album projects such as 2015’s electronic recordings from maui jungle vol 1. “unconscious fearless determination” follows on from this more experimental, less dancefloor-focused side to child’s work, while still pulsing with the techno fundamentals that quickly defined him back in the mid ‘90s. duckett hails from north wales, and has been a key part of the freerotation fabric since the beginning of the event. after some releases on mindtours, mindyourhead and sthlmaudio back in the mid-‘00s, his music has started to reach a new audience through releases on untilmyheartstops and a clutch of lauded live performances. “breaks my heart when i remember that day” captures the alien synthesis and emotional heft that singles duckett out as such a remarkable artist. steevio is the co-founder of freerotation and mindtours records, responsible for a huge swathe of techno releases reaching back to the ‘90s. as well as his releases on mindtours, he has recently appeared on untilmyheartstops and in collaboration with pev on schmorgabsord, and is set to appear on russ gabriel’s new label rivers of groove. with its expressive swells of off-kilter melody and snaking drum lines, “pendulum” continues the thread of exploration steevio has been following on his journey into experimental modular techno. tom ellis has been prolifically issuing forth material in a soul-enriched space in between house, techno and funk for more than ten years. from running the acclaimed trimsound label to releasing albums and singles on telegraph, archipel, hartchef discos and more recently ethereal sound to name but a few, tom’s recorded work and immersive live performances continue to reach out to new moods and timbres. “as a take” finds tom at his most reflective, layering on dubby effects and organic instrumentation in a truly meditative end to the ep.

jetzt auch endlich auf vinyl! 77 rusty trombones- ist das letzte studioalbum des im januar diesen jahres verstorbenen musikers, rappers, songwriters und produzenten blowfly! der aus miami operierende clarence reid aka blowfly konnte auf eine über 50-jährige karriere zurückblicken und gilt für viele soul-/funk- und vor allem hip hop-künstler als wichtige inspiration. in den 60er und 70er jahren arbeitete reid als produzent und songwriter für u.a. betty wright, sam & dave, gwen mccrae, bobby byrd und kc and the sunshine band. 1971 erschien sein erstes album unter dem pseudonym blowfly. das album the weird world of blowfly zeigt reid als maskierten superhelden auf dem cover, und er nahm anschließend weitere alben unter dem alter ego blowfly auf. seine dirty lyrics waren bereits in den 70er jahren ihrer zeit weit voraus, und sein track rapp dirty (auch bekannt als blowfly s rap) verhalf dem album blowfly s party 1980 sogar zu einer chartplatzierung in den usa. seine songs wurden von hip hop- und r&b-künstlern, darunter größen wie wu tang clan, dj shadow, eazy-e, method man & redman, rjd2, jurassic 5, beyonce, brand nubian oder mary j blidge, gesampelt. künstler wie ice-t, red hot chili peppers, flying lotus, run the jewels, dj quik bis hin zu den Ärzten zollten blowfly respekt. r.i.p. blowfly!

mixing abstract hip-hop and house, blutch s style is mind-blowing and striking, with touches of groove and heat. borrowing from pépé bradock, francis inferno orchestra,cuthead, andrés, shigeto and massive attack, blutch has forged a unique musical identity all along his career, always with this strong desire to combine several universes into a single entity.
in january 2015 blutch revealed his creative genius with his first ep, equilibrium. he will soon revisit a voluptuous set mixing trip hop, the softness of electronica and a hypnotic deephouse. requilibrium unites 9 artists in one project that represents blutch’ diverse musical spectre. friends, idols, people who we loved to collaborate with, spend time with, get to know better. the r stands for the remix, the reinterpretation of blutch’ ep equilibrium. each artist gives new life to one of the tracks, spicing them up to their liking. cuthead transforms « skyview » in a straight-up house floor killer while maxime dangles takes « chocolates & hamburgers » to gloomy, cold electronic heights. between these two extremes the music gradually and cleverly evolves track by track. melodiesinfonie opens up in complete serenity with his take on « a. » which takes us straight into summer with our feet in the sand. tito wun follows up perfectly with his version of “wildstar” that is stacked with groovy samples. next up is keroué, member of the band fixpensill. he puts his rhymes on a stellar edit by ywnwa. jenovah choses to take “deep diving” on a bass-driven path while pavane sees and raises that with an orchestral version of anyoma. it’s up to the brothers ark & pit spector to close out the ep by taking « elis » into deeper territory.

i was deep in texas when a call came through... -hey man it s cherry ! ...we got some sick new shit for you, gonna blow your mind- i waited nervously for the package. it arrived two weeks later. i slipped the hot black acetate from its wrapper and placed it on the turntable... wired guitars wail like banshees on heat, primal beats erupt drenched in dark juice from roots of trees slick with crunk. flutes and bells hang like exotic flowers that reek of jungle sex and all night long the pulse goes on and on and on as usual cherry was right...this most surely is one sick motherfucker of a record. don t get me wrong there s warped beauty here aplenty but you gotta take it easy. don t ingest it all at once...make sure you re in comfortable surroundings, trust me i know...six months later and i m still feeling the burn. damn you cherry garcia.

deluxe double 12 inch edition, featuring the iconic “awesome mix vol. 1” on the first vinyl and the original score by tyler bates on the second.

drawing on a rich well of influences from sufi and shamanic african trance music, irish and eastern european folk music, to steve reich and philip glass and more contemporary electronica influences, their music is built around deceptively simple sounding ideas that are lent power through the use of repetition and rhythmic loops. they have been compared to both portico quartet and gogo penguin for the way in which they navigate the choppy waters between contemporary dance music and jazz.

plaid bereicherten die globale electronica-szene mit neuen rhythmischen variationen, emotionalen melodien und sinnlichen strukturen, und schufen so einen warmen und willkommenen gegenentwurf zu rohen energie der rave-explosion. auch ihr neues album “the digging remedy” bietet einen breiten und luxuriösen ansatz mit viel liebe zum detail. bezeichnend dafür sind die ekstatischen detroit-akkorde in “clock”, einer kollaboration mit dem digital-künstler cabbibo (cabbi.bo), oder die zusätzlichen gitarren- und flöten-elemente des multi-instrumentalisten benet walsh, die plaids komplexe soundpalette erweitern. das album erscheint als schwarzes doppelvinyl inkl. download-code, im ausgestanzten cover mit fantastischen optischen raffinessen im zusammenspiel zwischen aussen- und innenhüllen.

faraway reach casts classixx’s young-but-nostalgic melodies and sublime chords in a more mature, restrained light, albeit no less lively and bright. establishing themselves as producers of note on their debut lp (pitchfork called them “great songwriters, too”), faraway reach delivers powerfully smooth and soulful jewels that are still decidedly their own - the classixx signature is one that can’t be traced. their love of plaintive voices and disco-inspired grooves is as evident as ever, but this time around everything is a bit bolder, the cast is bigger, the melodies distilled into a higher potency - it’s all just as good, but better. “on the first record, we wanted to include only people that were our friends, and have it be really personal…” david begins, a thought blake finishes: “this time we wanted to make a record with a lot of different kinds of vocals, to see if we could be the common thread.” the album traverses locales, vocalists and inspirations. it s a fitting movement for the duo, from venice beach to the mountains of south africa and everywhere in between - a faraway reach.
the double vinyl release includes a download code.

this soundtrack remains so powerful and evocative it could almost stand alone from the classic western it accompanied. just close your eyes and it won’t take long for you to start conjuring up images of grizzled mountain men, intrepid wayfarers, murderous outlaws, boom-town mining camps, lines of covered wagons across the skyline and the great american outdoors that just seems to go on forever.

reviously unreleased schizo post-punk/moogy folk score to 1983 british tv scouse-ploitation drama one summer (remember billy and icky?) from the vault of kate bush, serge gainsbourg and david bowie’s best-kept secret session man alan parker. inducing abject fear in protective parents and a street smart swagger amongst clued-up youths, this adaptation of a coming of age pastoral thriller by a reluctant willy russell broke new boundaries pinpointing a cultural teenage void between post punk activism and the acid house years while arguably giving thatcherite telly addicts a tiny kick up the arse. scored by legendary kpm/de wolfe library musician alan parker, this score retains a genre defying personality, pinpointing the stylistic essence of the era while successfully switching from barren rumble fish funk, pastoral moog noodlings, pentangular folk, 80’s post-punk rhythms with hints of dubby

reissue of the original motion picture soundtrack fro *dragon - the bruce lee story* from 1993.

nice price deal !!! a mind forever voyaging, due out spring 2016. featuring ten tracks of macho yet melodic, tender yet tense analogue house and techno, it is a continuation of the fine work the scenery records boss has done for labels like m>o>s and mistress in the last few years. something of a late starter, robinson has fomented his own mystical, nostalgic, inventive analogue sound that makes you jack, as well as conjuring real emotions with his great knack for melody. this album was recorded live then edited down.

over the past year things became a little quiet around the cologne based record label ki records but the collective have finally made its return with a new double 12”. marking his debut on ki, sieren unveils his first 10-track lp “transients of light”.

to celebrate record store day 2016, claremont 56 is proud to present something rather special – a killer single-sided release whose origins are shrouded in mystery. “tropic of capricorn” arrived at c56 hq with little or no information. while its’ humid sound effects and glistening, unfurling melodies evoke hazy memories of mediterranean sunsets and adriatic sunrises, the track’s creators live east of ukraine, in the colder surrounds of the russia. regardless of who made it, you’ll struggle to find a single that’s quite as warm, tactile and seductively groovy. built around a hypnotic, slo-mo groove, “tropic of capricorn” soothes and sedates from start to finish. its’ ingredients are relatively sparse – think gently undulating beats, toasty chords and an electric harp that gently ebb and flow like the waters of a mountain stream – but the results are nothing less than stunning.

controlling body is the new album by peder mannerfelt featuring vocal contributions from glasser. amazing gatefold artwork and 180g vinyl.

during the last three years a new name has been making waves at ostgut ton and berghain: berlin born, raised and based producer kobosil made his debut with a remix of barker & baumeckers silo (ostgut ton, 2013), completely unknown at the time, he has quickly earned his stripes as a dj on the clubs main floor, eventually becoming a resident at berghain. following up on five subsequent 12 releases and kobosils first live sets, his debut album sees him covering yet new ground in the form of a full length release.

the highly anticipated follow up to his 2015 debut ep, arc, kamera returns to continue his journey on phantasy with four diverse new tracks that serve to expand his visionary take on modern electronica. conceived during a series of gruelling training sessions while cycling mont ventoux, the internationally infamous french mountain otherwise known as ‘the beast of provence, ventoux captures kameras vision in its most intriguing and singular form so far.

the girl and the chameleon will probably fall under the genre tags of acid, electro and techno but it is so much more. witschkowski has been responsible for exemplary electronics throughout his career and this latest is undeniably some of his best. the album sees the exaltics don a dust mask. warehouse parties, strobe lights and fog machines and the 90s underground acid scene are definite influences. but theres more. across thirteen tracks and two slabs of wax the jena artist takes you on a journey into his world. gnarled and clinical grooves, caustic 303 encounters, depraved dancefloor destroyers and soothing machine music. a sonic trek through tough and taut textures with touches of tenderness. an album that shows a depth of ability, an enviable talent and a knowledge of how to break floorboards.
