ltd repress! coming from somewhere in michigan - as he declares his current situation - thomas rooge s first output is a strong midwest styled house and techno set.

charles duff and daniel fisher have known each other since well before their respective forays into dance music. they serendipitously crossed paths at some point in the early 2010s with mutual friends in the nyc club kid scene. shortly thereafter they realised they both were keen to ditch the vapid hipster bullshit that had fueled their early careers thus far in order to pursue something pure: techno. mind you, this was at a time when it was not terribly cool to be into underground dance music. if anything, they both were greeted with massive skepticism from their peers but that didn t ultimately deter them. both went from relative obscurity to regular slots at berghain. and for two american kids musing in a pathetic bedroom studio, this was nothing short of a dream come true. a prophecy had been fulfilled. the two tried their hands at numerous attempts at collaboration over a 5 year period but nothing seemed to stick. most of it sucked horrendously according to them. but not on this occasion. the stars finally came into alignment and they were able to execute a concise group of tracks that finally made sense together. which brings us to threads. threads, an homage to the uber-dystopian bbc docudrama from the 80s, sums up their dynamic approach to tracks. it s an alienating, sinister take on techno that somehow manages to not fully lose faith in dire times. much like life today.

spell pets backwards to get step. spell step forwards and you get pets going back to basics. step is the new vinyl-only label from the founders of pets catz n dogz with a focus on the rawest forms and root functions of dance music. step searches for the fundamentals with under-theradar house and techno thats not afraid to be rough around the edges. its all about the music.

shape-shifting post-punk quasi-legends bourbonese qualk are finally getting a bit of the shine they so richly deserve after years in obscurity, not least thanks to the retrospective compilation on mannequin back in 2015. now platform 23 are reissuing their classic album -laughing afternoon, originally released back in 1983 and having lost none of its impact. its a slippery, shape-shifting creation that veers between uneasy soundscapes and gutter-dwelling funk, with some truly visionary signal processing, electronic textures and more besides in the mix. its a crime this crew arent held in the same regard as their other early 80s post-industrial peers, but at least the wrongs are being righted now.

a miramar is a place from which you can see the ocean. the bolero group, miramar, chose this word as their name to evoke a place of peace, reflection and solace for a broken heart. even the bolero, a romantic music born in cuba in the 1800s, might have been conceived by the seaside. in the 50s and 60s it became the quintessential musical expression of romance in latin america. it is this era of the music from which miramar draws their inspiration. urgencia (or urgency), tells of the desperation a heart feels when it is swept away by romance, but risks all for fear of not having another chance at love. the flip, salida means a way out. it is a song about the surrender that comes after trying to break free from the darkest of places, of endless frustration and sadness. the lyrics allude, but never tell.

“live in houston” is a new step in the search for a timeless sound stamped secret value orchestra, which draws as much from the memories of the youthful musical loves of its members as from the group s desire to offer a contemporary synthesis where the boundaries between genres are blurred more than ever. in the end, there remains only the extreme pleasure of digging into compositions where the impact of immediacy does not take away anything from the finesse of the composition and the details that staple each piece in the brain, for days and nights, without ever really disappearing.

the not-particularly mysterious bristol / manchester duo yung bingles & lil chimpz combine again on two strictly limited vinyl only grime / jungle anthems, both tested around the world in the most demanding raves on road. on the mango side, a joy orbison classic gets mashed up with the classic devil mix of east connection s early grime anthem we re ready in a junglist style and fashion, while on the sceptre side, i don t know why man s calling me family is the question being asked rhetorically at 170bpm. support from everyone basically

tapan are back with their first release since their debut album europa. after that 2xlp emotional and epic journey they are now showing us again their dancier side with two cuts the beast (featuring serbian musician jan nemecek) and ghana. both tracks are not easy to categorize. perhaps industrial-inspired tribal-trance is the closest description, and yet somehow after listening to the tracks it feels like trying to put it in a box just dont do justice with the complexity of the music and its components. both tracks are remixed by 2 current favorites of the malka tuti crew - russian duo odopt who deliver an out-worldly idm monster of a remix to the beast, and italian-belgian duo front de cadeaux who pitches the track ghana even slower, adding more percussive grooves, a fat bassline and a whole lot of of sexiness to the brew.

2019 repress! after the first 2 phil releases that both sold out in the first days we have phil 002 ready. jazzy and lush tracks that have a solid drive, but somehow seem to be so fragile that you instantly start to care for these tracks and want cherish them and put them on a special place in your record collection!. better life is probably the track that will turn most heads with its great dancefloor appearance, but lets not forget the other three tracks with their jazzy approach, such as the simply brilliant moody mode.

1per customer , repress from the debut album from slovenian act videosex. while little known outside of the former yugoslavia, videosex’s self-titled debut album from 1984 sold in significant numbers, making superstars of the young slovenian musicians responsible for making it. the set not only helped turn yugoslavian teenagers on to the possibilities of western-style electronic pop, but also inspired them via satirical, often explicit lyrics. their debut performance at the novi rock festival in ljubljana lead to an immediate contract offer from slovenia’s biggest record label. it wasn’t long before the band were holed up in studio top ten in ljiublana recording what would become their debut album. they effectively moved in to the studio for days and weeks on end, clocking up well over 200 hours of recording time in which they mixed experimentation with a desire to polish each song to perfection. the result is their first album which includes nine songs touching a variety of sexually charged subjects including erotica, lesbianism, voyeurism and sadism.

secret circuits eddie ruscha and rub n tugs thomas bullock joined forces as laughing light of plenty for an ep back in 2008, and followed it up with an album on whatever we want records in 2010 which largely got lost in a warehouse stock malfunction. now emotional response are doing the right thing and giving the record a second airing under the duos alternative alias the naturals, and it s not hard to see why they wanted to do the reissue. loose and funky, but also deliriously psychedelic and indebted to the 1970s golden era of songwriting, this is a quintessential emotional record if ever we heard one.

mahoneys voice vacillates smoothly between ghostly and falsetto, while mcnanys arrangements and instrumentation bump, click, and whirr like a lovingly tuned rube goldberg jukebox. not too surprising, perhaps, considering they named the band after a song by schizophrenic outsider favorite daniel johnston, and they cite harry nilsson and roxy music as influences.

the whole truth is back after a small hiatus with a new collaboration with eric boss of myron & e fame. last seen together on party down, whose boogie stylings garnered support from the likes of dam funk, this time eric takes the pitch-perfect 80s funk and gives his producer a theme tune, a calling card. this one is a real underground funk gem. eric has been making waves on the boogie scene for sometime with his pendletons releases. previous whole truth releases have had radio play from the likes of monki(bbc radio 1) and nemone (6 music). and this time, not only does the artwork come from lewis heriz (sofrito) he also plays a mean guitar.

2019 see s the pair land on strctr, a label with a reputation for delivering that sweet house music and das carma are in good company here with previous artists such as manooz, harrison bdp & liam geddes on the label. even the title of the ep shows the fondness between label & producers : str -> mrs (airport codes stands for stuttgart, germany from where the producers come from and marseille, france where the label is based). delivering a 4 track ep of original productions das carma show that sometimes a &#64258,,,ashy remixer is simply not needed. liftoff cloud 9 opens the ep with a warm &#64258,,,oating dreamlike track, ebbing and weaving beautifully throughout the course of the track. larry & frankie and subnautica keep the subtle refrains of the opener but bring the funk slightly more with bump-in garage drums turning these tracks into feel good lo-&#64257,,, burners. closing out the ep is dub101, here the guys waste no time in making the tracks intentions felt, skippy house drums and a big old slice of call & response from some heavy hitting dub chords - peak time tackle.
