our third vinyl release sees the return of the layers va compilation

four discerning tracks from stupid human & space:tricks channeling the east, west and central africa. zaire is a bonafide classic in the making and were told is not an edit.

not the usual bio rhythm release... as far as they have any usual releases at all. recently the label accidentally came across this lost treasure by midnightopera (workshop) and signed in at the spot. produced in 2007, five is an epic 12 minute journey straight into downtempo/deephouse walhalla, making your sunday morning seem to last forever. the 2010 rework is delivered by bad boy roger 23, diving into even deeper territories and adding some psychedelic elements to make it safely through the other side and back. sunrise over riegelsberg... dont sleep! translucent red coloured / black marbled copies, vinyl only.

both men speak a very similar language, moreover, they are in their human nature like-minded people, which may explain the successful convergence in this conception. detailed and playful dance music for the sensitive and delicate nature, with a fresh summery touch.

this is a brand new collaboration between two neighbors from puglia, italy. after years of not seeing each other they reunited and came together in the studio to deliver the neighbors ep. both are prolific italian dj/producers having released on several international house and techno labels worldwide

something tells me this ones gonna be big. uzuri 020 comes from jitterbug, and its great to have him back. followers of the label will be very familiar with this producers work, even if they know very little about the man himself. im not going to shatter the mystique.

two years after his debut single he returns with a five track ep featuring i wonder why and four other tracks. his previous work was recognised early by the fader but instead of pumping out more releases, he took his time and the result is a great progression as a producer. not only was the ep recorded at his home, different rooms were actually sampled in the process. all with an increased number of textured synths en better drumlines blending into an ep with a very organic sound.

tekseven records. hailing from belfast n.ireland. the opening track orbit by tekseven is a trip into an off beat world of heavily laden beats, baselines, synths and sci-fi, evolving vocal lines seemingly sampled with precision from an old 50s t.v set somehow reminiscent of robert hood. the remix from uk artist binny continues along the sci-fi theme with a beautifully crafted ambient intro which turns into a thumping good retro feeling techno track! on the b-side teksevens atlas introduces us to some straight up no holds barred high quality light and shade techno that will loosen any dance floors rivets.last but not least is an excellent remix by mattias fridell verging more on the dub side of things with the deepest spacious bass that is a hallmark of his fine techno creations . all in all, a great first release from a brand new vinyl label. expect great things in the future.

john tejada does not really need any introduction - he is simply a phenomenon. starting with his first releases in the mid nineties, he has been constantly expanding on his massive catalogue of singles, remixes and albums released on well known us and european techno, house and electronic music labels and there seems to be no end in sight. in addition to his output on prestigious labels such as playhouse, plug research, defocus, moods and grooves, 7th city, kompakt, and others he has also been running his own palette recordings imprint since 1996. john tejada s ep for slices of life make reference to his earlier releases that were beloved by dj s for their driving energy and an occasional wink of humor. the three tracks on -times like this- combine a musical glance back to earlier times, while showcasing tejada s high level production skills of today: a slice from the past without being nostalgic

summer is here and alvaro smarts does not disappoints us while he offers this 4 tracks release! nothing much to be said for a legendary release - tip

fred p immerses himself further into his techno alter ego, bringing more depth and insight to the saga, using sound to transcend time and space. *serinatatis* starts off the proceedings with a relentless drive and lofty pulsating pads that give you the feeling of a dismal oasis, with its brooding bassline and obscure vocals penetrating the construct. *dark population* takes us further down the rabbit hole into deeper rhythmic vibrations. this hypnotic ceremonial floor shaker echoes the cerebral ethos of the ep. last, but not least, *convective zone* cracks the sky and lets the sun shine in with its rolling baseline and ethereal chord structure. homage to the term techno soul is paid in full here as a trumpet blares through without losing the depth of the moment.

spains edu imbernon continues his unwavering rise with yet another assured release, fading dawn - his second for culprit. despite his young age (edu is not yet 25), the valencia-based artist is an accomplished producer already, with recent remixes for the xx and hot natured under his belt and the likes of john digweed and maya jane coles as his champions

while accurate for most washed up middle-aged rock musicians, the above definition does not apply to les has-beens.

we release whatever the fuck we want records is insanely proud to team up with the mighty ze records (kid creole and the coconuts, was not was, lio…) for an exclusive re-edition of garcons no wave gem re-bop. the limited 12 inch vinyl includes the original song by marie et les garçons produced by john cale, its infamous re-bop electronique rework and a dancefloor-ready and ivan smagghe-approved edit by tel aviv producers red axes.

second album from british electro/synth-pop act la roux aka elly jackson.

trunk - and branches fetched by klangscheiben manager demas with diligent helpers from the forest. they built a wooden house of joy in the middle of the thuringian pampa. in the tree house they set up a small vinyl manufactory. what counts is lively, honest craftsmanship. hunter s tree! here they are, the pieces of wood, uh vinyl. scratched into the inner bark stands out: artists have placed their saws and axes in the shed and carved a few tasteful sounds in electronic sisyphean. chapeau et voilà, because what s crawling out of the wood boxes (clearly!) is not a worm, but musical understatement with pure groove research and a commitment to a culture of sound of the early perlon vinyls. oh god, always these analogies... but there were, no, there are good times for good music! this is magnificent fizzle funk with emo edge. relish and dance!

pop music rarely comes as honest and heartfelt as when delivered by molly nilsson. ltd to 500 8 track ep. having traveled around the world singing to the romantic and the doomed, nilsson found herself in the late summer of 2014 in buenos aires. inspired by the crumbling andscape and the heavy hearts that populate it, sólo paraíso is not only an ode to a specific time and space but a musical novella that meditates on youth, idealism and belonging. the soundtrack to a summer you thought you had when looking over bleached out old photo albums.

i lean upon this, i lean on all of this and i know her dress upon my arm but they will not give her back to me.

-never say never- ist die erste single-auskopplung und steht exemplarisch für deren entwicklung. das stück - halb song, halb club-tune überzeugt nicht nur diese kombination, sondern das stück funktioniert auch auf beiden ebenen gleichermaßen gut. dabei be

z records are back with vol 7 in the attd series: a1 yes, another killer cut on zr. zo!s gorgeous soul tune featuring eric roberson and phonte gets subtly housed up mix by dave lee. a record you will be hearing all summer at more musically inclined parties across the world. a2 jakattas house classic american dream gets a very cool bassline driven remix from andre crom & chi thanh… b1 new and unreleased…. b2 akabu feat. alex mills *everybody wants something* was an enormous tune for many in 2013 and is still getting played by big name djs in bustling nightclubs around the world. now we give you an off the chain/on point/un-believable remix from rhemi. we are not going to describe the nuances of the remix and highlight why the aforementioned big name djs like dropping the track in their sets at cool clubs/festivals/corporate events but its pretty bloody good…

jackoff beats is a various artist series from berlin based label jackoff records. in this 12 inch you can find returning jackoff artist, bristol based borai with another exceptional emotional track, long time family members oliver deutschmann and freestyle man with dance floor tools we could not resist to share. and last but not least, italian deep88 with his version of a house monster.

released in 1988, tougher than leather was the culmination of the rap/rock road that run-dmc travelled in since their earlier albums king of rock movlp675 and raising hell movlp633. its superb production, booming 808 beats combined with guitar samples, catchy choruses and smart rhymes made tougher than leather undoubtedly the best hip hop record that came out in 1988. great tracks include *mary, mary*, *runs house* and *i m not going out like that*. its equal appeal to hip hop as well as rock fans made the album a million seller, and underlined run-dmcs stature as living hip hop legends all over the world.

occasionally jay haze will take some time away from his productions on contexterrior to release music with other labels like leftroom and desolate, or he ll provide a mix for fabric. here, in 2014, jay haze debuts on soul clap - and brings some friends with him. these friends are signor andreoni, an italian producer that s not released a solo record since 2010 (his last was with haze) and the unknown jordy lockruf. -take a dip- is a new-school cut of retrospective italo with those moaning synths perfect for a rimini dancefloor, while the two joints with lockruf provide one clunky, slide guitar twanging disco jam and a shuffling house cut that ever so lightly verges on electro swing - but not too much!

three tracks of pickled, tripped techno-not-techno and crushed house from the dubliners, backed with a wry remix from tuff sherm aka dro carey. mastered by helmut erler at d&m, this is a vinyl-only release

jeudis sought after limited vinyl only edition is back again. jeudi basics 3rd edition is coming with a huge three tracker. not only co label boss doctor dru but also the great smash tv and roberto calzetta & twin soul got inspired by treasures from the past.

straight out of egypt via berlin comes this excellent two-tracker from the little-known son of sun. according to the press release accompanying the whispers ep, both tracks were inspired by a week sailing a yacht around the black sea. true or not (we have our doubts), there s certainly a sun-kissed laziness - despite weighty kick-drums and hissing, detroit techno style cymbals - about the woozy, dubtribe soundsystem style deep house of a-side -moonchild-. while impressive, the real killer is -whispers-, which peppers a swinging, dance mania style hip-house groove with snaking saxophones and atmospheric, spoken word vocals. it feels like a late night adriatic anthem in the making.

snuff trax celebrates magic record release number 010: happy jackin birthday! for this little anniversary we asked four great artists to rework chosen tracks from the labels back catalogue. leading us off, mr white (you know him from his collaboration with larry heard) made an edit of snuff crews *are you house*. followed by humandrone from tokyo remixing perseus traxx - *dont feel alone*. on the flipside you hear a remix treatment for raiders of the lost arp - *stealing my love* made by our man takeshi kouzuki of kobe/japan. and last but not least dimdj from thessaloniki created his own version of *galaxian journey* by elec pt.1.

rough, rugged and raw psycho jackers, that fill you up before the main course is served. parts unknown, weight unknown, this hasnt been the first and definitely is not the last you will hear from this guy. promo only like way back when, just to give you a little taste of what is to come. not coming back!

listening to the sound of konfetti klub ensemble creates associations of those sparkling drops that run down the side of an ice cold drink on hot summer days. it’s a very refreshing and delicious listening experience, it’s both stimulating and soothing. if you think the formula brass players + club groove is somewhat worn-out, you will be pleasantly surprised. pomelo comes with bouncy offbeat rhythms, and when the trombone hits in there’s clearly an air of balkan sound. however, around the middle of the track it turns into a joyful freestyle session. mollono.bass puts a bit more emphasis on beats, bass and pressure in his version, in other words: even a bit more emphasis on the dance floor. rotwein und sommerverbot gives a groovy hint why konfetti klub ensemble describe their sound as live brass house – it’s extremely jazzy and casual, a live session rather than a programmed arrangement. even more so schwankel, as it vibrates effortlessly between intricate musical deepness and sheer to-the-floor euphoria. last but not least there is a track exclusively for the digital release: stranddub – beach dub. let’s put it like that: there’s a damn good party happing at this beach.

not content with releasing high quality house music via their main imprint, city fly present a limited edition and beautifully packaged clear vinyl 10 inch by uglyink - a collaboration between the equally talented ugly drums and inkswel.

as our true fans know, every now and then we leave our comfort zone to bring something else than techno. this season, we gave dib from italy the honor to be the unusual one. three tracks, three times basic, stripped down house that does well as a tool or a track in the early or deep hours of the night. or just for those people working hard at the office and wanting some deep house during their officework. all tracks have a very old skool vibe to it and breathe true deep house: not the filtered down vocal kind, but the breed that just lets a 909, 808 shine and some rhodes or warm analogue synths do the work. the first one is rather detroitish - with a nice acid stab and some strings setting the mood, the second one is more dance floor oriented and the third version is a bit of both. does it need to be said that dimitri andreas mastered it again? and that it is available on vinyl?

this is the first release on interzona13s sister label outerzona13… black is nelson gomes, nelson gomes is black. this dude is a vital figure in modern lisbon. creating music as gala drop (golf channel), also releasing as principe discos amd shaking the city as filho unico. with this new moniker reserved for edits and dj sets. this release brings together three epic african jams, with a contemporary fix. beautifully selected & trimmed here for maximum dancing pleasure by black. we dare you to listen to this and not want to move, and if you dont? well, better call the doctor!

a new light shines forth in the world of electronic music. as more and more indie labels emerge there is a need to be distinguished and stand out from the rest. typically those who do a great job at contributing a new and unique sound to our planets dance floors reign supreme. but how can one tell what is new and unique if they have not experienced these moments themselves? based on over 20 years as a dj and producer, paul loraine is proud to present his next leap in his career with a fresh new imprint, rhythm cult. sticking to what works best in clubland while avoiding trends and relying on music that really feels special, the spanish label proudly presents its first record in the catalog.

limited edition of 300 numbered copies on colored vinyl: 1st record white with black splatters, 2nd record transparent with black splatters.
ah the humble double pack, isnt there something so very satisfying about this format? sccucci manucci evidently thinks so as the nine bows ep is the labels second release in succession to embrace the double pack. it s another high profile cast that contribute to the eight tracks here, with montel, mikki funk, jackson ryland and aashton all featuring. it is the latter, brighton-based producer who opens proceedings with *i cant shake it*, a summer house anthem in the making that showcases his love of a classic rnb vocal. maverick follows with *wait for u* which is not only his sccucci debut but also the parisian s first production committed to wax - hard to believe! the mood swings through various shades of house from here with *lemme hold u* from montel a mid point highlight thanks to a killer vocal hook.

where words alone can not convey emotions, dego speaks through his music, healing all that are willing to open their ears. through some bizarre twist of fate? luck? hard work? dego and blueberry records have come together on a 12inch, where we believe such epic words are necessary to guide this space vessel to its intended home - the heart and mind of the passionate music lover and the desperate soul of the everyday human seeking ascension.

at its very first start, the new label founded by conrad van orton proposes a vinyl of his own with two original tracks on the a side, november and captivity archives. and two great remixers such as vsk and the mysterious annuled user on the other. just as the needle starts to mark the passage, the classic four quarters give life to a beat that between one step and another compresses catapulting reality in a classic industrial scenario of mid-autumn where the clear sky gets marked by black and deep plots. a background noise accompanies the whole programming part of the drumming that gives off a relentless pace. on the a side captivity archives reconfirms the industrial nature of cvo with a look towards distant galaxies ..... with the needle still hot we turn around the record to the b side. here we find the vsk remix with a more ambient and crystal clear sound. to the original drum, vsk, choose an equally technical percussion. all home made. last but not least the contribution given by annulled user. trademark? techno! .. and there is nothing here to mess about with. 4/4 dry, hard which feel anger and rebellion desire. the kick, fairly present, is ripped apart by some demonic filters. the 5.30 min of annulled user are a reminiscence of the 90s.

limited 2014 repress !!
moments in rhythm vol 3. was inspired by an in-depth conversation that questioned the level of importance that todays society does or does not value its critical art forms, most specifically music … the universal language, as a means of free expression. from this passionate discussion spawned the composition of an opened ended letter, written in 4/4 format that captures and shares the passion of this conversation, and ultimately asks some questions such as … is it in you?
