our second vinyl release 2012 introduces a new series, the bias jams, on ilian tape. we start off with a compilation of 4 tracks from japan, serbia, argentina and italy. after some internal investigations we found out that imugem orihasam is not only a japanese shaolin, but also a yoga guru. his bias cut sounds like an instruction for a deep meditation in a forest. we chose a forest, because forests need to be saved. too many black puffs of vapour are killing them at the moment. our late riser regen probably didnt had that a mind, but we declare him to be an environmental activist from now on. now how should we include paper tape in this story … had a look online and found the term perforated paper tape. pretty interesting stuff, it was one of the first methods for data storage. ok are you guys joking? orbital? there is no way to write a good story with those track names. >an atomic orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of either one electron or a pair of electrons in an atom<. yeah right! well in fact its enough to know that the bias jams series will feature some heavy bomboclaat bias cuts from various artists! cheers

spring has arrived. think daffodils, premature outdoor parties, ambitious bbqs and the new fina 007. continuing our trend for spotting emerging stars we have enlisted the talents of mannheim poacher turned gamekeeper, and air london starlet, steffen deux. after mixing the >5 years of 8 bit< compilation and appearing on cocoons party animals mix , steffen has demonstrated his ability to turn his loft club fame, into a reputation as a producer, not just a record maestro.

this latest 12 comes courtesy of phil mison & pete herberts much lauded reverso 68 project. baa boo is exactly the kind of blissfully dreamy groove we have come to expect from this accomplished production duo, musical, melodic and tailormade for sunnier climes. on the flip we have piano 89, pretty self explanatory really, but for the benefit of those not pushing 40, its an old school house jam, drenched in the kind of italo piano hook that used to ignite late 80s dancefloors and is destined to do the same some 20 years on - magical.

generic modification in effect here on this 3 tracker from seasoned producer and remixer travelling incognito, hush-hush and strictly on the q.t. . straight out of east london, pacific rim dubs mix up deep, bumpin house with soul and boogie, rude acid with funk and fidget grooves with pure disco. in a mash-up style, but without the comedy beats and not a whiff of irony in sight, pacific rim dubs vol1 takes a selection of infectious snippets from the soul/ boogie vaults and blends them into proper house floor fillers

for correspondant 06, we have invited another french producer who comes from paris and calls himself offset. after a series of jazz/funk projects, offset found his calling with electronic music. >gazoline< is the title track and its a straight dance floor burner that crawled under our skin on the first listen. >subversive< is proof that slow can be dark, groovy, powerful, and sexy all at the same time, and >addicted< has a taste of trance just the way we like it, not too much, but just enough.

within the context of spirals, elements from the levels take on different meaning and significance. these ancient sources of knowledge combined with scientific and genetic theory, can provide valuable tools that can help us broaden our perspective. spirals are also concerned with correct action. correct action in spiral terms is action that is uniquely suited to the individual and the situation at hand. it places an emphasis on practical tools to guide each individual to correct action for him or herself. it does not tell you what correct action is. it gives you a tool to discover that for yourself: your strategy, based upon your unique design.

not many producers get handpicked by deadmau5 to conjure full length artist album for his prestigious mau5trap imprint, so for german specialist moguai to get the nod twice in as many years is one hefty testament to the sheer quality, imagination and originality of his musical output.

ferdinando apicella aka kernel key adds to his extensive discography with pass it on backed with a remix by sebastian leger the release will drop on italian imprint loose records this december. a sound engineer by trade, apicellas work as kernel key is inspired by detroit techno but sounds entirely his own man. having released his first release on mkt rec, a close affiliate of loose, last year his productions are solidly growing in stature.pass it on not only marks kernel keys debut for loose but also the first remix for the imprint from the irrepressible sebastien leger, whose version of pass it on opens the ep.frenetic, swinging and massively infections, legers version is pure dancefloor mayhem and sees the revered producer inject fun and funk into the original.kernel kes original pass it on is relentless groove with short melodic loops and nagging bass doing all the required work while bizarre filtered keys cut through the tracks nicely judged breakdown for maximum build.lady red rounds off the ep with yet another squarely aimed dancefloor cut. as tight and urgent as pass it on but with slightly detuned stabs and a freakier feel, its a peak time animal of a tune.

after countless collaborations with george in apparel music is consecrate time to this amazing artist with a vinyl. yapacc is a trademark sound that mixes techno and deep so masterful and unique. every breath of his soul shines in his works that transmit to us lot of emotions in one hit, an orchestra that in the song earth race reaches its peak, showing us new worlds, becoming glue wet, wrap around our ears. a magic stamped into the groove. rhythm to dakar is a flight for dancefloor. funky bass takes us back in time, but without losing the essential direction of the grooves fresh and spreadable. alejandro mosso to close delight us using a toll seamples. the culture changes, the rhythm as well, but not the pathos that yapacc has created for this release. alejandro breaks down and reassembled to create a whole new world, parallel but different from the original mix.

its a great honour for us to be able to present conrad schnitzlers last work. only a few days before he passed away last august, he created this unique, almost 70 minutes long work. 36 parts mixed into each other create a walk through his entire work. this record is not only for fans of conrad schnitzler. its like a trip through 40 years of electronic music. conrad schnitzler once more shows how strong his influence has marked young artists like emeralds and oneohtrix point never. wihtout his solo works and his projects kluster, tangerine dream and eruption electronic music wouldnt be the same. the tracks on the vinyl edition are in the order sides a,c,b,d. this allows you to make your own mix of this big work.

originally hatched in montreal, but currently based in london, djs anstascia and vivie-ann have established their musical blueprint by proving that they dont fit the quintessential stereotype they re toying around with. in the last few years, blond:ish has carved out its unique production recipe which focuses on the art of creating music that is organic and multi-dimensional. provocative basslines contrasted with smooth textures and sticky vocals blend into a genre of house that rebels against being pigeonholed to any specific category. now, fueled by the duos sharp taste-maker instincts and technical flair, they have not only charmed the industry masses but are set to release on the most notable labels around, including their psychedelic influenced >lovers in limbo< ep out on kompakt mid april, a record inspired by anstascias and vivie-anns interest in late 60s musical movements.

not only is this ep gerry reads debut association with delsin, but so too does it mark the launch of a new house-focussed series from the dutch imprint.

after appearing with c-beams recently,break sl strikes back with a massive track called desert flight that has already been causing a stir amongst the uncanny valley crew for quite a while.over the course of ten minutes the track unwinds as an analogue slowhouse trip that is dominated by a gritty synth figure.with typical sophisticated break sl drums,radio transmitted messages directly from the cockpit and a freaked out siren its a track that is not from this world. the flipside starts off in a more classical manner with the rumbling house of amorphed limits. the track is distinguished by rapturous synths and gets spiced up through additional drum work by break sls partner in crime manuel sander. beercase song originates from collaboration with dresdens universal genius max rademann. his quirky keys and break sls drum workshop create a dirty piece of funk which rounds up an eclectic ep by a versatile producer.the cover artwork was created by visual artist and designer julien simshäuser who illustrates the trip that is desert flight.

justin berkovi normally should not need an introduction, being involved in multiple techno-projects in the past, and still standing strong nowadays. his track ‘old timer’ reflects his musical personality and history and is being reinterpreted by another techno-historian, aubrey. on the b-side newcomers jack dixon and henning baer make their introduction on other heights with two total different interpretations which are to become oldtimers themselves.

the new ep from memoria comes from fast-rising romanian producer vid whose previous outings have come on labels including fear of flying and barraca music. vid (vidum) aka sorin rastoaca is a producer obsessed with nature and organic sounds. his latest release >rebirth<, is stripped but not light on feeling, and mines a vein somewhere between deep house and minimal techno. etime is a fluttery, eerie cut that works on many subtle layers. like the feathery minimal percussion of villalobos, the romanians sounds present like flapping butterfly wings as a kick drum punches out a varied pattern below. poem is a little louder and bolder, with a firm rolling kick drum and drunken, wubby sounds running right through its core. plenty of sonic details flesh out the languorous but slightly tribal groove. rebirth is again about little tiny details and how they evolve with time, but the framework they inhabit this time is deep, late-night house with gentle tinkles on keys coming over like a fluttering candle in the dark. 3729 gets its head down and mines a shifty, itching and tight minimal groove, closing out an ep which shows vid to be a master of working minimum sounds into maximum effects.

excellent floating deep house , incl vakula remix

dro & lodzy are back! this is their second single on absolut freak, the follow up to the successful >not yet now< with the remixes by dilemn and gooseflesh.

2 tracks from the mc that brought you >lidl< and was guest vocalist on mias paper planes remix that went into the us top 5. he has been around the world, finished his degree, guested on dj shadows >i m excited< and is getting ready to break out properly on his own. this is a taster for his mini album that is coming very soon, two tracks that take him in two very different directions. kunta kinte is a classic slice of funky, south african inspired house/ garage. with a strong lyrical message ab takes it back to the time when mcs had something to say other than how fly they were (not that he isnt and he will do some of those). produced by dan anderson from nu sound therapy. the tune is hot! eba eater is a quality slice of african hip hop produced by las twofifteens. it bounces!

einmusika015 comes with three new tracks from einmusik itself. the opener qazaqustan is already club checked, this dancefloor-track with a foreign guitar next to a peak time bass and distinctive melodic finesse in every second, will not go out of your head for sure. die oni and bambataa are poppy numbers taken from the new album oceans bottom summer-openers with dizzying atmospheric parts and a lot of power. the einmusika15 is the third part of the ocenas bottom vinyl serial.

we have decided to publish these tracks as our first release because they took inspiration from the two words label name: eleusína and recreations. thinking about that ancient mysteries and hoping they could survive till nowadays and in the future as a aid of our poor life helped us a lot in composing these tracks.
the two track ep was compost almost interely by machines with a little computer aid. cause we are only humans and conditioned by our fears and weaknesses, we have decided to make them almost mono tracks to maximize the transfer achievement to vinyl. have we took the wrong way? we do not know, but we keep some time to reflect about that and find the best balance between stereo and mono that fits our soul.
here we are, is not time for words right now, let the sounds speak.

le peuple de l herbe eine mixtur aus triphoppiger electro, hip hop, dub, funk, jungle und alternative-rock, mit messerscharfen breaks und bläsersätzen.

originally recorded for chris blackwell of island records the rights of ‘life of contradiction’ were then given to joe higgs who released the album in jamaica and the u.k. in 1975. it was immediately obvious that this was a unique collection coming from a completely different direction to the other reggae releases of the period. although joe had first recorded some of the songs in the early sixties for studio one it was as if he was at last able to realise a vision of his own music that had previously been denied to him: either by financial constraints or from not having the right situation with the right musicians.

from universal rejection, the northern cell of resistance that gave us last years acid bomb >le coq< by arab league, comes disappearer.
operating from the suburbs outside of stockholm, disappearer has not entered the techno game to find out how its gonna be played. on >now you see me, now you dont< he dictates right away. with its deadly linear pulse and rising and falling oscillators, >now you see me, now you dont< is a steady-handed techno shocktreatment of the nervous system, exemplifying how it should be done in 2012.

a good feeling starts if the first drumsounds of >feel so good< find your way from the boxes in the space. the head own style drawers belonging open in the half dozen and argue about the most correspondent blueprint. house? in any case. disco? unfailable to hear influence. electro? also not to dismiss this. dub? the father of the whole atmosphere. cosmic? also this is a part of the authoritative ingredients in the here available circle of the sounds. and the dance floor suction strengthening cow bells are anyway a tight of a track element of all last music generations! quintessence is, here two artists have poured your wide motley collection in influence in the form of a single track, have condensed and with it have interlocked at least 40 years of dancefloor history in fresh kind with each other.

if it would not be so cold outside, the latest shot of insistmusic would become an instant party classic. what ping! from thuringia have delivered this time at least definitely feels that way. the third edition of the frankfurt based vinyl label presents an intelligent, groovy techno: predictable enough to entrain, diversified enough to pleasantly surprise. the opening track depature marches across the dance floor, picking up the playful dancers with its funky offbeat elements in the beginning and taking them on an,ecstatic journey with its cleverly placed breaks. in the remix by label mate sascha sonido depature catches a touch of tribal techno moving the track with its vocals like rolling sound figures a good bit further into the house cosmos.

gabriel ananda was captivated by the sound of classical music by the early age of 8. he was encouraged by his family to practice the cello, but it was through playing the guitar that fueled his motivation to continue to learn about music. the guitar became a useful tool to express his creativity, but gabriel was not finished searching for his musical direction. in 1995 that changed. a dj set by sven väth was the pivotal moment that ended gabriels search to find his passion and two years later, the new producer celebrated his first release for the german label hörspielmusik. he went on to release singles on treibstoff, trapez, platzhirsch, and karmarouge before producing what was for him, a life changing track

dustin zahn with his own interpretation of techno... four proper techno remixes... a bad ass behind the decks, and in the studio since 1998...his productions ended up on some bigger techno labels as well as more obscure imprints. along with ian lehman, he forged the well-received attack people live performance… bringing his show across the us, to south america, and europe as well. when he is not on tour with his dj sets or supercharged live pa sessions, he co-promotes some of minneapoliss biggest techno parties. in addition, he also manages his labels abiotic recordings and enemy records, which both receive wide support from the techno community.

prinzhorn dance schools sophomore album, clay class, releases a quiet energy amongst a dark landscape, inarguably in tune with the downtrodden economic situations that have permeated modern life in the bands native britain, and conversely, along our shores. tobin prinz and suzi horn form a compelling duo whose shout-and-answer approach, paired with edgy and steady bass/drum patterns, achieves perfection in songs such as >seed, crop, harvest< and >your fire has gone out<. the album is constructed on the emblem of empty space, as songs such as >i want you< bridge the gap between musical minimalism and cold intimacy. the oscillation between starkness and warmth pays homage to the bands debut 2007 release, while also creating a modern, if not postmodern, musical snapshot of life across the pond, as well as in our own backyards.
includes full cd-version of this album.
