fango is a virtuous perfectionist, obsessed with mixing bassdrums, recording percussions and sampling drummers. it doesnt matter if its a drum machine or a gong from an orchestra, he will make it sound right. his first release n1 on degusitbus music was an instant success among the clubbing scene, turning dancefloors into ritual sessions. the same goes for his remix for aguirre by batongo, an ode to the wilderness of the amazon jungle. test his recordings on a proper system and judge for yourself.

running back veteran mark e returns with a tribute to the uks black country and an ode to the industrial revolution. the images and histories of coal mines, steel mills and iron foundries north and west of birmingham and south and east of wolverhampton lay the foundation of the three track ep (including a work break siren). being a product of his environment, mark e delivers lots of sooty particle house music with a glimpse of sunshine. bostin!

lph whites second offering picks up where the first one, by waze & odyssey, left us. that 12inch featured a remix by london-by-way-of southern-california house up-and-comer, urulu, who produced all four of the tracks included on this ep. left coast is an ode to taylor freels home turf, but dont think its all blissed-out balearic burners one might listen to while rolling down a palm tree-lined stretch of the pacific coast highway. every one of the four songs is a cranked-up, high-octane, peak-hour monster

dionne is a one of a kind rarity. osunlade pulls and draws from the lovely days of old, paying homage house music as it once was, when vocal edits were the vibe and pulse of an emerging sound. with traditional bata drums, filters that would put u in the mind of classic nick holder an just good ole fashioned groove on top of groove. the b-side is a ode to the bossa sound with a pulsating heart beat, funky melodies and smooth rhodes topped with a quirky yet fun vocal asking the question *what gets u high*? its music here that gets us high. we hope the same for u.

perseus traxx is no stranger to the legion of underground warriors who place quality above quantity, having released on bunker, m/o/s, photic fields, boe recordings, boomchik, chiwax, sequencias, and future flash to name a few, as well as being one half of nite vision with the man behind mantra/myriadd.the muses are the nine goddesses who promote literature, science and the arts, the personifications of inspiration. though only named and assigned characteristics as recently as the roman era, they were revered by the ancient greeks, who documented that them as having been recruited by the egyptian god osiris as he passed through ethiopia prior to embarking on a tour of asia and europe to teach the arts of cultivation to mankind. itís with this in mind that perseus traxx, makes his first release on newcastleís flight recorder label, delivering an ode to four of them directly rather than the forms they have inhabited while they visit him. bubbling and cutting, heavy synths and dusty tones are jammed out live to tape, ranging from the playful to the stark as they characterise the appropriately named tracks. an ordered tangle of wires and patching in a unique set of acid-free sonic experiments, that sometimes feel as cold and edgy, as they do warm and carefree.

paxton fettel intrinsically invites you to the very core of his soul with mana, a heart wrenching ode to suave and unassuming house music. real instruments and penetrating decisiveness serve an emotionally rendered piece of the blues, perpetually enticing mood binding empathetic maneuvers. paxton orchestrates feeling with musicality well beyond the average clique, despairing yet hopeful, slickly jazzed and upfront drumming produce a mad example of what he is capable of pulling off/straight out of copenhagen we get treated to yet another fine instance of a paxton fettel classic with they go unseen.

fresh again, silks favorite dunce-dance diva, maria minerva, tries on a new wardrobe with her bless ep. busting out with sweet n swingy single black magick, minerva caters her classic la-la lyrics about an occult/joke-cult romance over a new waif, schneider-esque pop-rock lobsta beat. space 4 u slips echo-drone vocal monologues over a laface-style rnb booty bumper, while symbol of my pleasure sneers with a walk this way funk lick, both reminding fans of minervas naughty/playful creep-creativities. rounding out the ep are soul searchin – a sleazy, down-tuned, junk-jungle comatose doser – and lady blacktonikas black magick garage trippin remix – a layer cake of luscious tush pushin and an ode to another sassy lady, miss kier herself. confidence is key, and this is maria minerva struttin,’ on and off key, through her newest collection of wand songs.

fuer >where we need no map< traegt otto das fello erstmals ins hamburger studio und nimmt unzaehlige sessions auf, in denen die gesten des bogens direkt den verstaerkten sound des cellos veraendern und neu formen. diese fello-sitzungen werden anschließend editiert und mit anderen einfluessen vermengt, die von skweee ueber house bis hin zum jazz reichen. der markenzeichen-sound von springintgut, diese ureigene verspieltheit, ist weiterhin vorhanden, gewinnt durch das live-prozessierte cello aber eine bisher unerreichte tiefe.

left hand path is an ode to the other, the outside, the odd and uncanny, a window to the wilds of theoutdoors from the crushing claustrophobia of the rat race. musically, the new aspects album deftly treads the light beam divide of old and new - at times dusty-fingered and familiar, yet finding moments of un-quantized lo-fi sci-fi - not far from l.a.s low end theory sound buffet.

san francisco label public release recordings steps boldly into 2013 with a new single from woolfy (a.k.a. simon james). juniors throwin craze is a slinky ode to the kind of red-eyed madness symptomatic of round the-clock hardcore partying. that is to say, its another late-night anthem rooted in the playful sound of west coast sleaze.

just one touch has been a long time coming but it emerges as a classic ode to house past and present. porto based producer social disco club was sat on the track for two years before miss bee added her dusky vocals. frayed and taught with emotion, her voice works in harmony with the gritty analogue sounds that drive the track.

lost paradise delivers a modern execution of our post-disco dance music culture, maintaining references to the past and looking for the oasis on the horizon. lost paradise #2 features two originals from space coast, aka sleazy mcqueen and jorge collazo. *vibe a.m.* is deep and dreamy with live flute and piano, emotive melodies and groovy bass. social disco club and last waltz turn in two completely different mixes, both fit for the late or early hours of the night. *cant get enough sunshine* is a melodic and cerebral ode to mid-nineties new york house but with a twist.
support from q-burns abstract message, b.g. baarregaard, sleazybeats recordings, atnarko, sleazy mcqueen…, ...

>love has made me stronger< ist eine fantastische neuendeckung eines albums aus dem jahr 1976! die sängerin und harfenistin carol kleyn spielte in den 70er jahren mit größen wie john lennon, robert plant, phil spector graham nash, anne murray oder gregg allman. ihr album ist eine tolle evokation von west coast folk-rock sounds der 70er jahre, carols stimme erinnert an joni mitchell und essra mohawk.
