tuccillo is a rare producer as he lives and works in ibiza all year round rather than flies in for the summer. the white island is without doubt the most overused and abused place on earth for dance music promotion, but beneath the glam superficial surface a real scene of native island talent is emerging. so when it came to making an ep for 2020vision we pushed the artist as far as we felt he could go, to explore new untried directions and show his diversity. tuccillo showed his true spirit and worked though a few knockbacks from our a/r team until we were happy we had the best ep possible at this moment
DUO (LP, 180GR)
12 Inch LP
28.06.11
when some collaborations occur, it feels like fate has been paying close attention, planning something special. on one hand: bugge wesseltoft, pianist, composer and pioneer of electronic jazz, on the other: henrik schwarz, one of the most sought after producers of electronic music who has remixed stars from michael jackson to ane brun. this combination may not seem as radical as once it might, as in the days before bugges new conception of jazz, but the results most certainly are: this does not feel like your typical electronic jazz outing. its a super-group in microcosm. wesseltoft comes from a jazz background and has moved towards electronic music. he started on the ecm label with jan garbarek, and later collaborated with club music legends like laurent garnier and francois kervorkian on stage. schwarz comes from the chicago/ detroit techno culture, and performs at music festivals and in clubs on all continents. he has been moving towards the jazz and improvisation

SILHOUETTE EP / JOHN ROBERTS RMX
12 Inch
28.06.11
following his two recent singles on scubas hotflush recordings, london based george fitzgerald is back with his much-anticipated third release and his debut for aus music. titled silhouette, the three-track ep includes two originals and a remix from american producer john roberts. fitzgerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, r&b and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. on silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and fitzgeralds signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. reset is eight minutes of forward thinking uk garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of detroit techno. for the silhouette remix, roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on dial records, glass eights. a breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment. in addition to silhouette, fitzgerald currently has remixes out for french house producer brawther on secretsundaze and uk bass artist throwing snow, as well as an upcoming ep on hotflush and a track on the labels recent compilation, back and 4th. this year will also bring the founding of man make music, a new label fitzgerald is starting with friends.

the -makeovers- project is a compilation of some of claudes best re-twists, some of which are so far removed they can almost be considered original works. this special edition vinyl includes one of the most sought after remixes, -warpaint- originally by pocket 808 in australia, vonstroke turned this into a late night anthem in 2007. played by techno djs, dubstep djs, and everyone in between this track was never cut to vinyl until now. on the flip side claude remixed the nublu orchestra out of new york. he was never completely happy with the original version of the remix and hes gone back and re-made it into a very special piece of music including a new vocal sample from his wife aundy who also did the vocal effects in whos afraid of detroit? this collection was put together with the theme that a remix can be an inspiring starting point for an entirely new piece of music. these are two of the deeper and darker remixes but we think you agree they are also very special.

JUST A BARDS TALE EP (HANNE & LORE REMIX)
12 Inch
27.06.11
remerc is no new face to the scene. he has been active for quite some time in the german techno scene and has recently remixed butchs track >muskatnuss< on the trapez ltd 100 anniversary compilation. he had his breakthrough in 2010 with the track >tiny calf< which ended up on the cocoon compilation >party animals< mixed by marco carola and nick curly. remerc opens his release with >ruhewolf<, a restless funkedelic rocker with a beat that juggles elements in a loose and totally cool way. the track is spiced up with elements of surreal bliss and could go on forever were there not the limitations of the vinyl. on the flipside we find an hanne & lore remix that tightens and fattens up the beat and pimps up the basslines. adding some twisted sounds ... making it a clubber par excellence. >just a bards tale< is a unique remerc track and stands out from all the productions he has done so far. here new wave coloured edgy vocals meet a post-detroit string-chord arrangement. sounds adventurous and daring? well it is to some degree... but recall >no more words< by carl craig from 1991 but executed in a dead modern way.
RAINFOREST
12 Inch
27.06.11
as the producer responsible for some of lil b and soulja boys weirdest, most inventive beats, and following on from a critically acclaimed, self released mixtape of instrumentals collected from his work over the years with various forward thinking hip hop artists, tri angle is very excited to announce the release of >rainforest<, the debut ep by clams casino. the five songs that make up >rainforest< find clams casino (aka 23 year old new jersey native, michael volpe) refining his ethereal, otherworldly sound, whilst taking it to a heavier and more intense extreme. what has set clams casino apart from most other hip hop producers is his skill in making records that sound just as good, if not better, instrumentally as they do with vocals, and if anyone needed it, >rainforest< represents the confirmation of this. its a record drenched in mysterious atmospherics, like a foggy memory of a far off exotic place, the details buried beneath the mist of distortion, but present nonetheless. none of the songs on >rainforest< have ever been released before, and in contrast to most of his other productions these songs have always existed purely as instrumentals, free of any vocal presence. >rainforest< is an incredibly powerful release which signals the beginning of clams casino coming into his own and operating as an important artist in his own right

TUMBLACK (LP)
12 Inch LP
24.06.11
fantastic and incredibly rare afro-disco album from 1978. originally released on the seminal french disco label barclay, this album seamlessly blends elements of african, afrobeat, funk and disco styles, with segments continually morphing and evolving into new tracks. irresistibly funky and percussive, this album’s drumming patterns and melodies grandually hypnotise the listener, with only outbreaks of african chanting breaking up the grooves. the b-side is effectively one long drum track broken down into 7 segments that never drop a beat. this album really takes the listener on a journey to africa, via 1978 new york, and is a real one of a kind. it’s also a samplers dream with no end of complex drum patterns and basslines to recycle.

LE COQ / HOLLYWOOD GOBLIN
12 Inch
24.06.11
with its corroded, live recorded sound and relentless machinedrum, le coq is a trip to the shadowy, not to say drunk side of dance music. as an acid statement this track is right on the money without ever submitting to any ground rules of vintage acid. truly envelope-pushing electronic wizardry with a dark edge. stripped down to a bare minimum, the flip side hollywood goblin evokes the linear pulse of early body music, while the lead synthesizer adds a touch of cabaret voltairesque arpeggio magic. universal rejection was established in stockholm, sweden in 2011. the label is the collective effort of a closed circle of friends sharing the vision of a parallel universe trough raw, down to the core electronic dancemusic. every new release is a code. it represents a piece of what universal rejection is, and proves that the label will be in constant flux while at the same time always remaining true to itself.

sa010 presents three uncompromising visions from xhin, go hiyama and donor. a1 is xhins aggressive return to wax on sa. >hepta< is a gnarling, snarling tale that erupts into acrid broken beat. this track comes from xhin s new studio sessions, and it anticipates the coming of his most ambitious project yet. b1, >tasu<, comes from a new addition to the sa fold, go hiyama. >tasu< is hard, industrial and dub-filled in precisely the right quantities. >tasu< is perfectly swung peak-time techno and a foretaste of the monad chapter that go hiyama is currently crafting. donors flipside, >lapse<, shares the deep atmosphere that permeated his monad ii and sampler series releases. while hi hats sneak into the foreground and the background is punctuated by murmuring vocals, lapse gathers velocity around the weight of its bassline.

with the new release on maruca music we welcome a trio from moscow: b.a.d.
it stands for bvoice, anrilov and danilov (denkbar). all three of them are well-respected artists on their own and now they joined together with the label owner pier bucci to create and crossover between russian culture and latin-american soul.
the title on the a-side >musica moscow< is like a night in moscow: trippy, mysterious and lots of rhythm.
the second track on the other side is named >the poem<. it is a deep and thoughtful track complimented with a russian poem by arseniy tarkovskiy which was taken from a movie shot by his son and one of the greatest russian directors ever andrey tarkovskiy himself.
early support by: andrey tarkovsky, fiodor m.dostoyewski, g.i. gurdjieef, antonio velasco pina, lev tolstoy.
dj t.s pleasure principle immersed itself, wholly and rapturously, into electronic musics legacy of soul, and helped to usher in a new period of groove-heavy deepness. like an antidote to clinical club sounds, album standout tracks like sense inject some well needed groove into the dancefloor. the maxi version of sense partners faraway melodies with james teejs breathy vocals that get up close and personal. a deep electro funk bass riff establishes its intent, and snaky percussion leads to a more structured house beat. piping flute sounds and drum echoes add an element of swing, while analogue handclaps and the tracks distinctive bass line recall its retro pedigree. newcomers tale of us continue their journey into dark minimalism, with a remix that isolates the percussion and vocals, shrouding both in reverb for maximum atmospheric effect. a sense of unease pervades through the saturated bassline and slow delayed handclaps, creating frosty mists and dark corners within the synth-tech house arrangement. hot natured duo lee foss and jamie jones next bring their sunny midas touch to the proceedings. teasing out the intro with high hats and layered vocals, a sense of anticipation is high. it blooms into sleek, skittering beats and otherworldly sounds, with a bass line thats been cut & paste back into place, before it delves deeper into a menacing deep bass synth rumble. the club version begins with a kick, deep echoes and meek percussive sounds that loop upwards through the scale. the distinctive bass line and handclaps begin, then teejs unadulterated vocals are pushed to the fore. brittle metallic synth flares appear from below the bass-heavy beat and recede again, ending in an electro-disco retro groove

bullion announces his new single >magic was ruler<, for vinyl only release on 25th may 2011, featuring 3 full length version of track from his non-lp >you drive me to plastic< and one exclusive new composition. the title track is a sample-based tapestry, rich in jangly guitar chops and pert horns, it dances along with the merriment of a tropical beguine. >magic was ruler< is a crate-diggers journey to encompass all manner of musical styles from krautrock, leftfield disco, all the way through to afro inspired 70s electronics, and continuing on from 2009s >young heartache ep< (one handed records). the searching, syncopated track >you drive me to plastic< has all the dynamic of the non-lp with which it shares its name and new track >good news on her< has the pulsating verve of shep pettibone-era ny house, whilst packing bullion s signature hip hop punch. >too right< completes the set, supported by benji b and gilles peterson in the uk.

THE DAY (PRINS THOMAS REMIX)
12 Inch
20.06.11
for all the wonderfully subtle shell-breaking he did on his full-length, mark e falls back on old, slow habits for his new single, >the day<. and welcomely, we might add. pitching things down to a basement lounge floor crawl, the midlands dj/producer wraps his always chugging kicks and snares in serpentine synth-bass, jazzy, tripleted hi-hats, and moaning, wordless soul vocals. its grasp is tantric—hinting coyly at ecstatic release, but never fully delivering. for the vinyl junkies that bought stone breaker and missed out on it the first time around (it was absent from that version), this release should be a no brainer. but >the day< isnt carrying all the weight here. a new track called >special fx< will have sample hounds—particularly those with a thing for classic electro-pop—salivating. and the oft imitated, never replicated prins thomas shows up on the flip for a (naturally) eleven- minute revamp of >the day<, livening up the bass and drum patterns, adding in strings, piano, guitar, organ, and ending up with something that totally could have emanated from a camaro at some point in the early seventies. (albeit, one owned by someone with interest in eleven-minute instrumentals.) it even has a fade out!
