serioulsy violent opening on this ep with a massive deep hardcore shaker 175 bpm. then comes the nuklear waste society and it 170 bpm sustained hard kick and deep acid spirals. a side brings a loud dancefloor middlenight sound! b sides open on a acid breakcore tune, at the crossbreed frontier without passing it for real. too hard for them! too ritch in sound! finishing with mental breed, a superb acid bath of beats and never surrender 4/4 dancefloor effect.

think early relief records and the green velvet sound of the mid 90s, very cerebral and freaky undertones. all of this done from an earlier mathematic artist coming back into the game. included on the ep is a take on some jungle with a twist of analog house notes on top.

the virgo ep is the 4th of mutewax’s non-stop output, featuring french artist cømpass. vindemiatrix is a classy, uplifting peak-time track that sneaks up behind you. if you were thinking of leaving the dance floor. think again. spica lays heavy on the kick-drum & thick bass-lines. it’s a mind-winding trip which reveals a mature twist on the classic acid tweets. arcturus bounces joyfully across the dance-floor and picks up the pace with its hard-hitting acid notes and infectious rhythms. porrima beautifully stirs the emotions - the melodic rhythms predict a sweet future, yet it retains an atmospheric nostalgia for all things which must pass.

welcome back to the movielike resonating sound world of the 23s. already in 2008 the mysterious one-man band proofed with the album “bolivia” that they are trying to do another kind of music – something that isn’t entertainment, something that isn’t show, something that goes gently straight to your soul. now the producer from nord-rhine-westphalia did it again and tuned in the longplayer “flamingo”. anew he delivers a special kind of cinematic journey music that grooves opposite to his other, more rhythm based hypnotic dance productions. also as the 23s he produces pattern-based music, but it pursues a different intention: each listener should dive into a hallucinatory world of seen and unseen films that his inner eye creates unprejudiced. all ten tracks are romantic smooth operators. they put themselves in service of an artistic vision, in which the listener should get lost in music. the album can be seen as a love-letter to the movie scores of the french 70s cinema or the impressionistic sound arrangements you can hear in the early cinema of peter greenaway. with double bass heat, discreet piano melodies, levitating guitar chords, some gentle horns here and there and beats that recollect the warm jazz influenced soul of oldschool hip-hop the 23s generate a sublime get-down-deep instrumental journey. you can listen to it attentive. or you can just play it in the back while doing whatever you like to do. it is recommended to play “flamingo” in a decent amount of volume as all loungey tracks begin to live bigger and brighter with sound intensity. if you play it flashy you will experience an atmospheric sometimes light-flooded, sometimes foggy 40-minute electronic journey that offers open-minded souls to fill the room between the notes with their very own milky fancy. soon the album will be accompanied by a bunch of remixes tuned in and twisted by producers like giegling and white artists edward, christian s of the cómeme tribe, canadian producer the mole and the german post rock and electronic music band to rococo rot.

the people behind the amazing mareh festival in brasil (the southern hemisphere s answer to electric elephant), drop yet more top drawer music as their label journey continues to gain strength. set in the lush settings of bahia where day blends into night and sun into moon, mareh continues to attract some first class artists from around the world to release on their imprint. the second release kicks off with glasgow based production wizard the revenge letting loose a late night groove that takes a blissful string sample and then works it for the dance floor. it s top stuff from the man with the roaring grooves. and rumours have it that the revenge himself will be headlining at this year s legendary nye event in bahia alongside tim sweeney, pete herbert & dicky trisco. next up is berlin based disco and house aficionado eddie c who drops an uber cool, cut up disco chugger that is likely to work your sunset and early morning sets to the max. mareh favourite pete herbert then steps up to the controls and delivers an upbeat, balearic dance floor banger that hits all the right notes and then hits them again. you can almost smell the hierbas on this one! last but not least, tokyo based englishman max essa delivers an electronic ode to late night dancing and early morning dips as he joins the dots between the tokyo underground and the fresh bahian surf. wonderful stuff. so mareh really are out to pull in a truly global sound to their label outing with glasgow, berlin, london, ibiza and tokyo all represented as well as their spiritual homelands sao paulo, and of course the place where it all happens each new year... bahia.

uabos, aka matteo pepe, is a young and rising start from the fashion capital of europe. this milan musician melts the mediterranean with 707 attitude, connecting his homeland with the iconic floor grooves of chicago. warbling acid warmth gives way to spiralling female samples as dusk sets in. the track is pure golden sunshine. tweaked bars are woven through clean drums to form an energy-filled track of explosive properties. polished rhythm patterns scaffold the ep. from this solid base flow clever melodies and dancefloor subtlety. 303s trickle against thick and rich chords for the textured tones of abc dream . uabos grabs his audience, holding them with hypnotic harmonies and an entrancing elegance. but with that is an intoxicating funk, one epitomized in the drill . toms and pads introduce. snares snap as a deep and dense build is constructed, layers bubbling arpeggios support cascading chords for a chitown streaked disco romp. the finale, squash , is living musical liquid. a syrup of synthesized squawk squirms under soaring notes and crisp beats for a jackin infusion.

legendary bronx-bred hip-hop duo camp lo burst onto the scene in 1997, when their classic debut album uptown saturday night (and its anthemic single *luchini*) introduced fans to the los intricate flows and cutting-edge slang editorials. nearly two decades later, geechi suede and sonny cheeba are back with ragtime hightimes, a brand new album produced by longtime collaborator ski beatz. the album finds camp lo and ski beatz pushing past boundaries while staying true to their creative vision.

poland s father and son records and tapes present first proper outing from label boss maciek sienkiewicz - three heavily edited tunes from different periods of popular music history. -the white sheik- turns an obscure 80s eastern bloc groove into a full-on modern disco stormer, while -no shit sherlock- is 70s brazilian fusion redux. finally, the title track turns first few notes of one massive pop hit from 02 into hypnotic, entrancing journey in the vein of terry riley or philip glass. fantastic cover art designed especially for this release by renowned contemporary artist paulina olowska.

shining the spotlight bright on newest signing, brazilian-born urbandawn with his hospital debut single,neon nights. giving a glimpse of the infectious bass lines and euphonic notes that are inevitably on their way from this talented producer.

kindisch is absolutely thrilled to introduce the newest family member to the roster, french mastermind yokoo with his sensual and moving ep, atya. the title track brings us warm percussion topped off with long, drawn out pads and elegant notes jumping around the track. the track holds its energy back for the most part, creating a beautiful ambience and amazing warm up or after-hour vibe.

the revival of symbolism continues with j.c. & kastil. j.c. aka jose cabera is otherwise known as spanish house producer kasper as well as cropping up on fred p s boards imprint as j.c. in 2014 while kastil is widely recognised for his output and stewardship of soul notes

10 track 12- on collectable japanese label -snaker-. leaving signature fm synthesis work arcade game, blends with soft reggae feelings, his programming make more minimalismic, polyrhythmic and even funky approach through eerie,vertiginous,glistering and ominous without long dramatic notes. this primary sound make us mad, it has something common to lo-fi feeling or row house groove.

the next release on rinse is the second in a series of three eps of gorgeous, punch-drunk house music from label regular rupert taylor, aka xxxy. the follow-up to last years acclaimed 18 hours, it is a further spiral inwards for the tripped-out, wistful style he has increasingly come to make distinctly his own, with clouds of arpeggiated synth notes and vapourised voice rolling atop pillow-soft, droning bass.

the groove brothers, aka jef k and rhythm&soul, keep things moving with the second release on their fledgling label, on a mission records. it’s been seven months since the label’s debut, demonstrating the duo’s considered approach to their outlet, which has been set up to capture the true spirit of house music, basing its ideals on some of the industry’s most respected labels and keeping that timeless, classic ethos alive. this second release unites the label owners with a couple of newcomers to the scene. retaining the sultry outlook of the first release the groove brothers inject jazzy notes and smooth funky rhythms into their music, while mr ks and kub follow in a similar vein with their well-crafted contributions. ks expanding on the jazz theme, while kub takes a more sensual pathway.

with the bizarre feeling ep laying the sound for the subsequent fist year of the label, it is right jamie returns with ep#2 to move things forward with another twisted take on his unique mutoid-protoid-machine-funk-groove. starting with mad obsession you would be forgiven for thinking you ll have bizarre feeling part 2, with warped vocals - taken from late night, half asleep scribbled notes - and space echo haze, but let the percussion work-out trip you up and the stars in and before you know it things start going leftfild and then deeper with the free party sound system bass line shuffl of time nearly time. what he is on (about), no one knows. it is on the flp however that things take a darker turn. beyond the confession booth, down sharp stairs and dripping ceiling to a red light lit room of latter day late night blues.

the return of raffaele attanasio on envlp was only a matter of time. the young label (run together with luigi -a-man- giomini), after having signed two other excellent releases edited by drum communicate and kuba sojka, is ready to rejoin the artist author of the stunning first release >der himmel ueber berlin<.

and while often quirky sound-notes adorn the heavy grooves, the album keeps spinnin forward relentlessly. with functional, dirty beats, individual drum-sounds, breakdowns that really break it down and loads of fx.

the last shout präsentiert die in vergessenheit geratenen superhelden der blues-shouter-generation, die die amerikanischen nachtclubs und r&b-charts nach dem krieg dominierten. trotz des aufkommenden rock n roll sturms erhielten viele durch ihr erarbeitetes standing in der musikindustrie mitte der fünfziger ihre letzten chancen zu aufnahmen. the last shout dokumentiert diese zwielichtige zeit und bietet die letzten großartigen werke des genres zwischen 1954 und 1962. die limitierte 2lp-edition enthält 32 ausgewählte stücke der 97-track starken 3cd-edition. die linter notes stammen von r&b-kenner und compiler dave penny.

(180 gr heavy weight gatefold 2lp with liner notes) funky chicken brings together some of the best belgian dance tracks from the early seventies.

industry sheds all personalized effort and tests how far you can get by using presets only. all sounds are factory presets of 3 obsolete 1990s japanese workstation synths, all effects are presets, all notes are quantized and most panning is purely accidental (laid out in the preset sounds). industry doesnt rely on successful presets, but on failed sounds of now obsolete synthesizers - industrial assumptions of where culture will go, but where it chose not to. the result is a surprisingly pleasant listening experience with effortless grooves and rich textures - and mildly demonic connotations. from smooth to kicking - a conveyor belt enjoying mood swings. as beautiful as the scheduled meeting of a pvc sheet and a thermoform mould on a workbench.

with very little music made available to the public lido established a cult following amongst the high profile djs that have been lucky enough to seure his unreleased remixes to play in their live set. these unreleased remixes - with their signature intro four notes acting as a craftsmen stamp (the same notes illustrated on the cover) - have led to numerous bootleg live recordings of the remixes giving an almost folklore-eque mythical quality to them

if you re going to beat em down, you need the right tools. on the label s second release, grimy trax has given you a couple hammers. the a-side, dejay cease s the fixer is straight chicago. we re talking banging 909 funk that might be found buried on a particularly unhinged ron hardy mix. a simple bass line and two notes of acid are all it takes to make the floor go wild. this is functional heat with enough atmosphere to engage the mind, body and soul. on the b-side, rising chicago son boogienite proves he s earned the hype. boy, ok is an instant classic thanks to some recognizable disco strings and a funky escalator of a bassline. the producer uses a trippy, rubberband synth which eventually turns into rhythmic, teasing vocal. the mixdown is ridiculous, especially as the lengthy track passes the halfway mark. boogie brings the bassline in and out in between beautiful ambient rhodes and a call and response male and female vocal. those strings hit again and you feel no pain.

demarzos sound is a meticulously crafted one. his toxic perfectionism and shrewd sense of rhythm lead him naturally to where he is today. his well-revised sets include anything from underground deep house to main room deep tech. after releases on hot creations, noir, glasgow underground or loulou records to name a few, arrives to sincopat with two secret weapons. holster is a cheeky but solid track which brings together groove and melody. analogue synths being added, it also presents changing voices all the way. for the remix, walker & royce take the deep way with a dry kick and sinister notes. pay attention to the astonishing breakdown. trigger is the second original track, in the same language than holster, and using some classic groovebox bullets. ramiro lopez, one of the sincopats golden boys, after his bedrock release, offers two fresh versions with different treatments.

for the second instance in their reissue series, echovolt records treat us with four lush new jersey house gems, originally recorded by wayne gardiner in the early 1990s. now remastered and pressed loud... tip!

the 2lp vinyl collector’s edition of soul city philadelphia sees soul music authority clive richardson select 28 of the most sought-after tracks from his 60-track 2cd compilation. these recordings served to establish the musical direction of the city in the late 1950s and early 1960s, at the dawn of the soul era. compiled and annotated by soul music authority clive richardson, soul city philadelphia is the latest in a series that has previously explored the nascent soul scenes in detroit, new york, chicago and los angeles.

the 3 originals explore some warm synthesizer soundscapes on this one. patrick krieger shows his affinity to intense atmospheric pads and notes while s-tek and ad.lib deliver some weird bell-like hooklines.

the album astral traveling by innerspace halflife is among us with 9 tunes straight from the universal psyche, yet articulated with the tools of human perception through waveforms. deeper and deeper the tunes take a listener on a journey of spacey pads, longing melodies, electronic bass notes, and jacking drum programming. in terms of human understanding, the universe is infinite which makes any scenario one can think of possible. with this in mind, astral traveling was composed and explores the deepness of creativity as innerspace halflife reaches down to pull out sounds using various techniques. the story begins with teardrop from nebula 1122+22. straight from a far away point in space which can serve as the beginning or end of a journey.

the constant state label launches in style with a record from ian blevins & phil moodys al gobi outfit, who had something of a breakthrough 2013 with releases for disco bloodbath, rothmans, culprit la and audio parallax. while the original mix of a cup of tea is dark and unsettled - beautifully balanced bass notes and piano cutting through heavy, storm-pregnant air, cottams accompanying remix is the distillation of a second wind. his tribal, twisted, acidic treatment of this 3am concrete bunker anthem never overwhelms the piano refrain, instead giving it a new life, like the ghost of a party suddenly bequeathed fresh purpose as tired legs find boundless energy.

lambs musical style is a distinctive mixture of jazz, dub, breaks and drum & bass, with a strong vocal element and, in their later works especially, some acoustic influences. consisting of producer andy barlow, and singer-songwriter lou rhodes, they achieved commercial success with two hit singles *górecki* and *gabriel*, the first one being included on their eponymous debut album (1996).

a period of review (original recordings: 1975 - 1983) visits k. leimers vast archive and unearths unheard work from a self-taught visionary whose use of generative composition ferried his music to infinite resonance. with its hypnotic arcadian terraces and nearly narcotic glacial beauty, a period of review has a rightful place in the canon of pioneering ambient music. double album includes 16 page booklet with extensive liner notes and ephemera, printed inner sleeves and a high quality mp3 download.

the hyper-chromatic music of matt cutler marks him out as a true impressionist, as lone, he drizzles brightly coloured melody through his tracks with all the reflexive skill of a master painter daubing inks and pigment across paper. on cutlers fifth lone album, reality testing, released on r&s, he sends notes and chords rippling delicately into space before allowing them to disperse, each oozing beautifully away into the background fabric of the music. combined with rhythms that ebb and flow, shifting from propulsive club constructions to beatific coastal hip-hop, it is a sensuous, immersive, heady experience, and easily his most accomplished and selfcontained work to date.
the double vinyl comes with download code for the full album.

latest iib release features the north easts version of csn last waltz. a double header, the first track just hold on is a collaboration between last waltz & smoove. heartfelt vocals over a pastoral rolling chugger, deep bassline folky guitar strumming making this a favourite at iib hq. on the remix ess o ess raise the tempo a little bring out the electric guitars and increasing the chug to almost krautrock levels. on the flip side last waltz give us tribute. a deep atmospheric acid affair. mellow electric keys and percussion lull you into a false sense of security before the heavy kick and acid bassline drop with dark cello notes. machete savane take on the remix. replacing acid for guitar and adding some machine groove this slowly builds and builds into a top bubbler.
