phonograph music is back with a 4 tracker by anthropous anonymous. four cuts that embody a poetic approach to dance music, trough deep house, balearic and tribal. a few months ago, in the time and space of a few impromptu sessions, an ep was conceived and produced. not much was planned, but the voice and the keyboard notes our dear brazilian friend roberto coelho hit, gave the whole thing its not so but quite ambiguous form and meaning. soon after that, the music just flowed�

in the summer of 2016 hove went to france for two weeks to start writing and recording his new ep portes du soleil. together with his girlfriend they spent two weeks at le pascalet, a house in the woods of the cevennes, right outside the small village of st. etienne vallee franc&#807,,,aise. equipped with a sampler, a drum-machine,some synths, effect pedals and a mic for feld- recordings, he built the foundation of the 4 songs that would later become the ep portes du soleil. all the songs started out as live-jams. the goal was to create different moods and patterns inspired by the surroundings of the forest, long walks, playing petanque and plenty of pastis. the tracks were later fnalized back home at hoves studio in zurich. musically portes du soleil feels like the natural follow up to his debut ep journey to arendal. hoves tracks are wavering between sozzled grooves and warm, woozy atmospheres. field- recordings from their daily routine in and around the house were either used to enrich the ambiance, or as in calme infni, they were transformed into a whole song. even though portes du soleil was written during the summer, the record is not bound to any season it is simply an excerpt of hoves life in 2016.

following his recent paradise compilation on hot creations, label favourite nathan barato returns with a killer two track release, freak beater. both big room tracks built around heavy basslines, tight vocal cuts and epic builds, stomp change and freaks of the industry have been rocking dancefloors worldwide at the hands of label boss jamie jones. making a name for himself in the toronto after-hours circuit, nathan barato has since smashed international platforms across the globe, carving out a reputation as not only one of the most playable producers in dance music, but amongst its most prolific djs as well. hes graced the decks at some of the most notorious clubs and parties on the planet with highlights including amnesia in ibiza for marco carolas music on and for jamie jones and paradise at dc10 where he holds residency. baratos string of highly successful releases can be found on the likes of cajual, mood, relief, saved, circus records, defected and of course hot creations making barato one of the most hyped names in the industry.

they are dangerous is the second song released by senator gary. the riddim was build by the late great keyboard player winston wright (1944-1993) and the vocal was recorded at creative sound studio. the tune was produced by neville reid who died a few years ago. senator gary is also called imara, abbasani and now he is voicing under the name of i-maa-raa. so the quest to find him was not so easy, thanks to marshall neeko for the help.

origine rec is the music part of my new concept mixing music & fashion. it s a -vinyl only- label influenced by the underground house scene, with the desire to propose my own production and various artists i love and respect. -for the 1st release, i wanted to include -riviera- a track from my childhood friend unknyo, which he produced 5 years ago -the track called -les bains- was produced by me (saull) & unknyo. the title comes from the place where we met 13 years ago in paris, les bains douches. -to remix riviera, terence terry was an evidence: his style combines authenticity and musical signature, nothing better to spice a record. -not to mention a track dedicated to my lovely wife and first support -ju lya-.

forbidden planet , but not to forget

private eyes, a duo made up of interstellar funk and jeroen, two storied members of amsterdams underground electronic music community. 500, vinyl only. tip! their safe trip debut consists of two analogue-heavy electronic workouts that tend towards the atmospheric. a-side -mirror image- is spacey and melodious, with an italo-disco inspired arpeggio bassline underpinning galactic chords and memorable piano lines. it s a collection of complimentary analogue elements tweaked for maximum late night enjoyment. on the flip you�ll find -anasazi-, an altogether deeper, more hypnotic affair. its distinctive rhythm comes not from bold drum machine beats, but rather the rising and falling of intricate, micro-house style melodies and looped electronics. it feels like it was influenced by the aural textures of dub techno, the phase-based minimalism of steve reich, and the deep space ethos of early 90s european ambient music.

this release - a collaboration between ali x (alphonse from azari & iii) and mexicos theus mago - turns the heat up all the way to on and just leaves it there. the lyrical content of the title track would lead many to use descriptors like sexy, sleazy, and steamy like you wouldnt even believe, and while the music also bears that out its important to remember not to stigmatize something that almost everyone does at least a couple of times a week. vision, meanwhile, offers the perfect b-side accompaniment, a sci-fi techno workout where you dont even have to think about sex if you dont want to. the ep features dub versions of both tracks for more stripped-down club sets aimed at people who understandably have problems with the sound of the human voice. it also includes a remix by curses, whom we recently bumped into (he says cornered) in berlin and asked if hed provide one of his trademark eerie downtempo excursions. long story short: he said yes.

giallo soundtracks, drag queens, psychotropic cacti, back patches, hi-nrg, sunglasses at night, tape echo, jack o lanterns, rave rain: these are just a few of your favorite things that you might find in squirrels on film, the new record label from san francisco veterans solar and brian hock, aka c.l.a.w.s. what youll hear isnt quite techno, house, disco, or dub, but a syrupy melange of all of the above and then some. it s dance music for those who don t fit in and for djs who regard genre as a suggestion, not a rule.

take away presents its first offering - a delicious serving of three tracks delivered straight from the secret kitchen of ajvar soundsystem.
label info:
take away delivers music for you breakfast, lunch and dinner. it s not trendy or rare. just the music you really want to hear, in your own home, whenever you want.

**limited hand-stamped edition, vinyl only!** a search query on your preferred search engine will probably not deliver any satisfying results on the artist fehlzuendung, as the duo prefers to remain anonymous. music as the essential element of this collaboration is simply too important to be subordinated to individuals. -weiter geht es- is a dark and melancholic release, having the courage to trust in slowness and patience.

every story has an end. but in life, every ending is just a new beginning. life goes on - not always as we envisioned it would be, but always the ways it s supposed to be. remember, we usually can t choose the music life plays for us, but we can choose how we dance to it. make yours a beautiful memory.

we welcome onboard leeds based producer lk, already released on the great shall not fade, with 3 fantastic housy tracks plus an superb remix from the talent baltra fron ny.

new band name, new lp, the former max graef band toured and worked on new music all year. musical progress, and the impression of not enough edge and rawness in a lot of recent music, inspired and motivated a majority of the recording. the band has grown as a unit and wrote a lot of material together this year in late night sessions. during 2 weeks of recording the new songs in the studio the goal was to try all sorts of instruments, amps and effects and be open to any combination of sounds. furthermore, they and engineer lutz fahrenkrog-petersen tried to capture and maintain the raw feeling of the live recordings using almost exclusively analog pedals and racks as well as keeping the editing of the recordings to a minimum. although bands like et cetera (wolfgang dauner), embryo or xhol have heavily infuenced max graef and his band, the result turned out very original ranging from distorted jazz-rock to experimental soul, electronic percussion workouts to free sound experiments and psychedelic rock. with some tracks being around 14 minutes long, it is better to let the music speak for itself though.

those who preordered, do not have to do so again we will contact you when we have stock! repress from 1985 12inch with included here, the original extended 12inch mix and instrumental version with mid-song breakdown and dubbed out chorus.ll songs are remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. housed in the original jacket featuring a photo of a boy by pushe 27. each copy includes a 2-sided postcard with photos of the band, lyrics, and liner notes by flemming dalum.

nice price deal !!! there was once was a spider named roger mor. he lived a quiet life in the english countryside until the raves of the early 90s. he began to munch lots of random things that he found of these fields. as a result of this munching he evolved into something mother nature did not design ... a manic spider raver called mor manikmor manik says, i weaved digital into my web and i didn�t let him out until he produced the goods

nice price deal !!! like his creator (julien decoret), opium factory is a vision of what electro rock is today. the idea is minimal and with no artifice , a hairy drum and bass combo serving nonchalant vocals in a raw sound environnement. this music refrains itself from any form of radio edit and seeks on the contrary to emphesize on the hypnosis element of voodoo. upright bass player for nouvelle vague and bassist for la boétie, julien decoret is not at his first shot and delivers here an original and matured sound.

nice price deal !!! manila fine vinyls is the new label project created by shadow sync showing their more soulful side. unlike some minimal fakes you can hear around nowadays, the manila fine vinyls productions have their roots in the original detroit house sound: no frills, no virtual mockeries, just the full and deep analog sound that goes straight to your heart. we care about the substance, not about the decorations! this first release shows the influence of the early carl craig and juan atkins productions and includes two great tunes which have been successfully played for some time across europe. idol, a sweet 90s sounding track has a very characteristic bass line blended with a dreamy pad which opens gradually as long and continues as the song progresses. you will love it! on the flip the feelings, a soulful tune dedicated to all those who are in love for someone: the sweet electric piano chords and strings of the opening are well balanced by the tight bass line and the grooving house beat. let the feelings come up!

jacktone records is pleased to announce our latest release: a vinyl ep titled channel from rising house producer, loren steele the ep from san francisco-based steele is comprised of four original tracks designed for the dancefloor, plus a sprawling psychedelic remix from mathematics/100% silk veteran, roche. not only are the tracks varied and ready for skilled djs to drop at that perfect spot of the night, but, they�re also earworms - hooking you with their infectious grooves and melodies. the clean production and energetic structure of the originals, featuring perfectly-placed pads, stabs and filters washing over propulsive basslines and percussion locks in a warm yet hands-in-the-air vibe. the roche remix of swimma draws out the groove and adds some of that san francisco psychedelic fog. the tracks were recorded live in single takes with little post production processing, giving them a kinetic feel that can�t be reproduced. channel was produced with creative feedback from both cherushii and nackt, whom were lost in the oakland fire. the ep is released in their memory. loren steele is a san francisco-based producer and multi-instrumentalist. as a bassist, dj and a solo live pa artist, he has performed at bay area institutions, haceteria, ok hole, psychic friends, run the length of your wildness, space gallery, public works, and underground sf. he has releases on wolf and lamb music, run the length of your wildness, bob recordings

(juan atkins and tresillo remixes) epm are thrilled to announce their next release, which not only invites back esteban adame with a new track to follow his beautiful day labor album but its also backed by remixes from the legendary juan atkins and recent newcomers tresillo.

new kid felix leifur made quiet a stir with his debut release on dirt crew last year. the icelandic juggernaut comes from the striving reykjavik music scene and is working closely with the lagaffe tales guys on building a new northern house empire. since his debut hes been working hard on creating a more varied vision of his unique lo slung hip hop approach to house music. with this ep he offers six new outings that have one thing in common, very warm and moody sounds ranging from disco through jazz and hip hop. were certain that he will continue to further cement his name in the coming years and were looking forward to working with him on plenty of exciting projects. opening with eyelids, felix delivers a rough, deep and dark house cut with broken beats, warped piano loops and twisted sampling throughout. classy has a smoky jazz feeling, kept tight with clever beat programming while evolving around a catchy sax motif. our personal fav is the title track, in general, a stunning broken beat house jam, smooth and loose, with swirling keys and a funk flavoured bass. the b-side begins with midwinter, a dance floor gem on a straight up junket. its deep, forward moving and bass driven, much like his track feels like that featured on our deep love compilation in 2016. yet another highlight for us is apollo, theres not many records out there that sound quite like this, thoroughly warped and contorted, depraved strings and a hypnotising rhodes arc and strain until the bass drops and it all falls in place psychedelic beauty! he closes with mine, a dope lo fi hip hop beat that casually wraps our ears, an ice cold soul infused piece.

berlins true romance is back on the disco train for their fifteenth release. label boss tensnake is at the wheel this time and cooked up two irresistible a sides. first in line is the sci-fi infused machines, a catchy slow analog burner with deep synthetic bass lines, etheric melodies and floating french vocals. the perfect soundtrack to blissfully cruise the foggy, neon-drenched nights of a dystopian future. on the aa side, the vinyl only black as flies slings us back under the blazing sun. starting with sultry vocals and a stripped down disco-not-disco vibe, the track morphs into a unique blend of italo-zouk madness. heavily road tested by the man himself, this one is a certified exotic weapon. limited pressing - dont sleep!

limited white 2017 repress. amazing peak time monster by sam paganini. we believe music shouldn not be explained or overanalyzed. we would rather avoid too many useless words. just press play and listen to it.

one of the best mid-tempo disco raritys (and we mean rare) to come out the deepfunk scene. when keb darge first played party & get on down in the early 2000s in soho it put a few noses out of joint as it was such a departure from the deepfunk driving take no prisoner sound. true to kebs scottish stubbornness and like any real dj he stuck to his guns and created a dance floor favourite. athens of the north bring bab to 12inch for the first time, not only that but its a nice wee extended cut transferred direct from the master tapes. no brainier if you got class.

tucked away in a now not-so-quiet corner of south east london, wholemeal have been quietly, unobtrusively getting shit done. wholemeal music�s freshman release hits the shelves this month featuring two cuts from yam records boss tom esselle and a hoofing remix from fellow south-londoner west norwood cassette library. skilfully treading the line between house, techno, and jazz, the a-side, until she spoke is a superlative exercise in light-touc h sampling and devastatingly effective rhodes work. it shuffles then stomps, hypnotises then elates, bringing together disparat e threads to create something for the head and the heart. the title track, garibaldi, maintains the light-touch sampling thread and then takes it to a whole new plane of drum-driven dancefloor detonation. twisting chord hits whirl around a savage interplay between bass and drums before dropping back to an elemental pounding, bypassing the brain and heading straight for the feet. long time wholemeal friend and serious contender for the nicest man in music award bob wncl has very kindly picked up garibaldi by the scruff of the neck, grafted an enormous pair of junglist balls onto it and kicked it screaming across t he dancefloor. this is about as peak-time as it gets. wait for the wall of bass after the second drop, its enough to stop you breathing.

groovepressure is excited to be re-releasing two tracks from the first ever groovepressure release. resonators is groovepressure honcho robin ball and long time school friend salman montiero. made in 1999 in a very small studio in robin s house, robin remembers -getting them pressed and taking them to the shops i loved in london to see if they would sell them and getting a really good reaction from the shop staff. not that it was going to be a big commercial success or anything like that, more because the tracks had a unique sound and i think still do today. the underground scene then was a lot more freestyle but even in that atmosphere it was an unusual release. since then it s been one of the most sort after releases from the groovepressure back catalogue. it s an exciting time to be re-releasing this with the re-emergence of the label. booma and shuzzbuzz have been re-mastered and remixed by robin ball.

zweieinhalb jahre nach rhondas debütalbum -raw love- erscheint am 27.01.2017 der nachfolger -wire- auf pias germany. das quintett hat seine mischung aus groovigen beats, lässigem soul mit sixties-vibe und perlenden melodien verfeinert, die punk-wurzeln aber keinesfalls vergessen. so klingt -wire- dann auch teils cineastisch und deutlich düsterer als der vorgänger, was nicht zuletzt an der beteiligung des deutschen filmorchesters babelsberg bei einigen songs liegt! die zusammenarbeit begann im november letzten jahres, als rhonda ein angebot bekam, mit dem filmorchester ein konzert in potsdam zu spielen, welches prompt ausverkauft war! schon dort probierte man einige der neuen songs aus, und es wurde allen klar, diese stücke sollten genau in dieser besetzung für das neue album eingespielt werden.

the dj and producer from cantabria comes back into the picture with this �seconds of light�, which is released on his own seven villas music. boli&#769,,var goes deeper and deeper into velvet soul deep-house, with a dreamy touch which is especially present in the track which names the ep. therefore, it counts on a soft groove and an inherent club vibe which makes it perfect for summer sophisticated sets, or even for listening on one�s �me� time. simo&#769,,n garci&#769,,a�s remix of �seconds of light� darkens up the original, giving it an extra push of strong kick in order to take it to the late hours and the vibrating underground dancefloor. �all clear� is under el txef_a�s approach, a modular, cosmic and disco kraut-rock space trip, with an acid reminiscence. illustrated escapisim whch does not forget about the dancefloor. �leaves without shadows� was a track which was originally included in bolivar�s last compilation �the obscure figure�, also released in seven villas. pablo enjoys this time the collaboration of upercent from valencia, and also includes a remix by berlin�s duo youandme. deep but rhythmic, almost martial tech-house, which is as well danceable and in constant emotional progression. through his new �seconds of light ep�, pablo boli&#769,,var makes us involved in his sound imaginary, which is always wide, varied and gets given qualities which are linked to his music bet: quiality, good taste and international scope.

although it is not really their debut, gt003 unveils a new stage for the sao paulo collective and its eponymous label on their global endeavours, be it for the chosen source of material they offer or for the regal remixer recruited to enhance its flavours: discosmic royalty prins thomas. delving into the grooves we find ourselves amidst rhythms that rely heavily on the hypnotic power of an infectious bassline, powered by some greasy fingering responsible for the type of gravy that makes brazilian cuisine world renowned. the flip is served by your balearic highness, designing one of his mind-bending journeys by turning the original flavours into a dense compound of molten polyrhythms and worldly spices. an earful of delights for anyone fairly interested in sensorial expansion with high concentration of musical content, what can easily be found when such diversity is sought after, as has been gop tun s mission throughout.

adam port and jimpster have had a special kind of �virtual� relationship the last few years with a mutual respect for each others productions and output of their respective labels. keinemusik, which adam runs alongside rampa, &me and reznik, has grown into one of the most consistent and hottest out there right now with every release creating a big splash and bringing magic to so many dancefloors around the world. adam recently remixed jimpster�s eel pie island to devastating effect bringing his own deep, late night atmospherics to the original and creating one of 2016�s underground hits in the process. so now we�re very pleased to welcome adam port (alongside legendary uk artists stereo mc�s) for a full release on freerange in the form of changes. opening the release we have adam�s own remix which sets the tone with a subtle and gently building groove providing the perfect backdrop for the stereo mc�s esoteric vocal. this lesson in restraint shows why adam�s productions work so well on big systems, letting all the focus shine firmly on the vocal creating an intense atmosphere with not a single huge breakdown in sight! next up we have the original of changes which takes a more electro approach with a simple bassline and crisp hats and once again allowing the vocal space to take centre stage for a deep and memorable track with a message. finally we have a remix from our own jimpster opts to push in a completely different direction. shuffling up the groove and laying down a repeating rhodes riff we�re treated to an altogether more soulful and less stark version making the perfect compliment to the the package. this one makes us think of his remix of osunlade�s momma�s groove which is no bad thing we feel! enjoy!
