a leading figure of the contemporary electronic world, jamie odell aka jimpster sets his sights firmly back on the album format with this beautifully crafted long-player, silent stars. a self-confessed creature of the night, the freerange records and delusions of grandeur boss taps into his nocturnal and escapist impulses to deliver a superbly executed modern-day fusion album. his seventh studio album and first since 2013Õs highly-acclaimed porchlight and rocking chairs, this is an album dedicated to the nocturnal hours. silent stars is a richly textured ride through the tapestry of house, from jazz-infused opener ÔmigrationsÕ through to the dense, orchestral euphoria of Ôtau tonaÕ and the minimal, percussive bounce of title track Ôsilent starsÕ. the listener edges a touch closer to the dancefloor on tracks like ÔyansaÕ and Ôpower of the doofÕ - yet the grooves stay subtle with intricate percussion, dense sound design and a mischievous streak being palpable throughout. a range of guests are welcomed by jimpster across silent stars. hotly-tipped londoner florence rawlings adds her vocals on ÔcraveÕ and ÔeverytimeÕ. past collaborator and member of kirk degiorgioÕs the beauty room, jinadu weaves emotional soul on album centerpiece Ôthe sun comes upÕ. khalil anthony lends his vocals on Ôwhere you areÕ and leading session drummer andy gangadeen (massive attack, chase & status, the bays) lays down his immense beats on Ôtau tonaÕ. jimpster is a true veteran of the global house scene, a custodian of the authentic deep house sound and a producer who has quietly created some of the most reflective and sophisticated electronic music

the techno revolution 30 years ago, where boundaries, walls and our own guarded natures came crumbling down? the archaic establishment-challenging attitude and forthright energy of the punks? the long-awaited eruption of gay culture that had burned and yearned since the dawn of mankind? dare you travel even further back? rewind two hundred years to the romantic revolution where men like the blitzed berloiz helped us transcend our physical limitations for suspended moments of fantastique disbeliefÉ all of these moments have shaped us, our music and our culture. each movement comprising artists who like us right now are trying to make sense of the uncertain world, the chaotic present and the fearful future. artists like hell. welcome to the futureÉreflecting over his participation and contribution to myriad cultural movements since the late 70s, his passion of ever-evolving musical form and our current socialpolitical landscape, hell taps into our collective rich histories, our combined fears and our mutual desires to create his most personal, ambitious and thought provoking body of work to date: zukunftsmusik. his fifth studio album zukunftsmusik fuses some of hellÕs strong signature motifs (his passion for subversion, his great kosmiche canvases, sudden throbbing bursts of dancefloor dynamism, subtle songcraft) yet it sounds unlike anything hell has ever created before. there are very few big club singles. a delicate balance of classical dramatic orchestral tension and evocative futuristic synthesis runs throughout. dark and light, hope and fear, fast and slow, day and night.over the course of one hour helmut josef geier invites you on a musical trip of a lifetime his lifetime, your lifetime, musicÕs lifetime.

john frusciantes foregrow doesnt sound like any acid test record, or any record, thatÕs come before it. after the unlikely alliance between the los angeles label and the iconoclastic venice, ca musician on trickfinger, all bets are off. this ones truly a passage through night. frusciantes using elements of john carpenters eternal scores, the drum programming dna of jungle and footwork, and yes, a roland tb-303, all slowed down to a crawl. foregrow is a lurching, lysergic beauty which offers glimpses of his platinum pop instincts, but only behind the veil of true experimentalism.

two years ago i played at studio 9 in vilnius, lithuania. the following day i missed my flight home and ended up spending an extra day, which gave me a chance to explore the city with my friend linus, who took me to the contemporary art centre. it was there i spotted a book named ÔrojusÕ, that linus told me translated as ÔparadiseÕ. the word and striking cover of the book stuck in my mind. a few days after returning home, i turned on to a national geographic documentary named Ôdesigned to danceÕ, explaining the courtship rituals of birds of paradise. as i watched, i jokingly began drawing similarities between these birdsÕ attempts to captivate and impress the opposite sex with dance, and the way strangers try to attract one another in clubs and interact on the dance floor. this gave me the idea of creating a record of functional club music, sequenced as if it were a club night, from doors to closing, using samples of these birds of paradise and their habitat. thus, rojus. leon vynehall 2016
