it has been the sweetness and warmth of the city of hamburg, its delightful venues such as the golden pudel club and smallville parties at ego that made him diving into deepest music. after >ne travaillez jamais< became the favorite track of all smallville and dial djs and rau played on one of those magic nights the idea of an album was born. the plan was as simple and lovely as the music on asper clouds is. here comes the sun.

first on decks !!!

hot off the heals of their last release, blackdisco is back with another friend from the deep. a great tastemaker and all-around record freak, sebastian grätz aka basso, digs up some high class nuggets to round out the summer months. these four tracks conjure imagery of long nights in sweaty jazz-funk speakeasies from the darkest corners of the globe.

emerging from afternoon studio sessions, the final scores, too many beers and then nights in an upstairs room at their local boozer, discomendments aka lee fisher (of mother >all funked up< fame) and paul kaminski have developed into a fine production unit who are into anything and everything. having started out cutting and pasting edits for their own dj use, they are now focusing on original productions that fuse different styles and genres from past to present. sleeping giant, their debut release on maxi discs, borrows unashamedly from the early network house sound, but fuses it perfectly with contemporary slo-mo house, disco and balearic vibes. whether on the beach or in the basement, the discomendments sound is equally at home! on the flip side, maxi label boss, pete herbert, turns up the heat and reworks the original into a dancefloor bomb. while disco deviant dicky trisco keeps his eye firmly on the mirror ball with a lo-slung ny influenced workout. listening to the sounds of maxi discs is guaranteed to release the pressure

a beautiful soulful jam for those summer nights!as the peak of summer is upon us and those warm summer nights are in full effect,it was only the right time to drop this beautiful vocal project that has warm vibes written all over it.

its been 18 months since our first nang release, d-pulses >more<. nestled on that release was an extra ep track called >highway to saturn<. much to our delight it turned out to be a bit of a gem. when it featured on the tirk 02 and kitsune ponystep / jerry bouthier compilations we knew we were all onto something. (cue the overdrive and the interstellar vocal.) slovenian-based, us singer, hannah mancini, provides those cosmic vocals, ably recorded by sare havlicek in sunny ljubljan. after a sly re-titling of the track (to avoid confusion with the original the name has been extended to >on a highway to saturn<) its on to the obligatory over-the-top nang remix package...first up is a new version from d-pulse for those long summer nights. their >australian shore reversion< mix slows down the groove to a balmy evening by noosa shores pace. space-rock, guitar solos, smouldering synths and lazy rhythms all combine to make this one for the beach house. sare havlicek adds a couple of mixes of his own. keeping things hi-energy he goes for the disco jugular with his trademark stabby synths and tight production. nang newcomers, proper heat, strip things back and go for a slow-grooving baltic-disco chugger. rounding off the remix package is japanese based jan ken po (aka max essa). he delivers a dance floor friendly version with a big and bold walking bass riff and tasteful synths

supplement facts records continue their rich run of form by handing a label debut to detroit-native lee curtiss. the >and we all fall down< ep has been one of the most hotly anticipated from the israeli label and is set to become the soundtrack to the last echoes of summer. we continue to dance, as the days grow short our nights become longer and lees ep is the perfect accompaniment….>i can hear you arthur<, a tribute to one of lees long-time music heroes, arthur russell, is an emotional escape. with russell being a direct sound-inspiration for the release, we are treated to a longing for a far away love. with waves of sound that build and cascade, accompanied by pillow-talk whisperings, all creating eight minutes of rhythmic, warm grooves. arthur never sounded better. after the body-swaying vibes of the a, side b brings the perspirec-electronic throb and hip-grinding action of labor of love. after yearning for arthur, we are more than appeased with the beautifully sultry and ever so intimate vocals of stephanie selvaggio. with its rhythmic guitar opening belying its true intention, labor of love develops into a sensual dancefloor cut with stephanies vocals floating effortlessly with the acidic beats as she drives us ‚crazy, and we all fall down is a perfect example of an artist at his most vunerable. its brutally honest sound invites the listener in with open arms and wraps itself around them like a warm cashmere blanket. as the brutal realisation that summer is almost over starts to sink in…its worth taking comfort in records like this, that make the transition that much easier.
