vol 93 ! incl armin, paul, talla and many more on 3cd !

the 21st full length release on greyscale is by none other than the home town hero sraunus. a veteran of the label, we are thrilled to have the fellow lithuanian back once again. the depth of surrealismus is nothing short of amazing. how only 7 tracks feels deeper than any double cd set, we are still trying to uncover and understand the entire scope of this release. sonically, it is a true gem of pushing the limits. idea wise, this album is cohesive and awe-inspiring. holowuka is beautiful and gentle opener. it sets off a serene almost deep sea diving atmosphere with the long delays and low frequency chords vibrating through. the melodic elements open up even more, a vast world as the track evolves. from the low key and moody to the pumping aggressiveness that is hroniglas ii . a true monster with a sick combination of trance and deep techno thrills. jueootas conjures of memories of 1990s ambient techno with the light and airy feeling of nostalgia. a lovely adventure on the high seas. jurgynas continues this theme with a beautiful ride into a sound that is blissful and forever. some of the most soothing dub techno we have heard yet. lapunai is another strong candidate for being our most favorite on the album. featuring what sounds like excerpts of violin s over some amazing layered melodies. a shinning moment and a perfect example of a dub techno track s emotional potential. lastly, ramunanas submerges us in a beatless (but not bassline-less) sphere of magical and shimmering sounds. a true master-class of more ambient dub techno. sraunus is back and if surrealismus is any example of what he has in store, then everyone should bookmark his choice where he shares his latest news. we think this could revival any dub techno release for album of the year. it s that good!

the well-respected hydergine run ranges label adds a talented phenom to its roster. san francisco dub techno artist federsen, has been making waves in the scene for over a decade now. with releases on greyscale, silent season, zeecc, and even back on thinner in 2009 among others, federsen continues to find himself on labels that can properly advocate his sound. highly influenced by the dub style recording craftsmanship and in an ultra-competitive genre, we at ranges feel that this is one to be heard that evolves the genre even further.>magnetosphere< focuses are wide-ranging on this release. from traditional inspired rhythms like in >relic< and the dub chord roots of >anyplace<, to the spatialness of >euradyce< & >vco<. the seriousness picks up a notch for the techier heads in the wicked sounds of >siricco<. we feel one of the key appeals to federsens sound on this full length is the ability for sounds to evolve organically while others dip, swell and flourish giving the tracks a great live allure. the combination of those strategies make the experience come alive for listeners. the deepness is on full display in epic tracks like the immersive >magnetic< & >l infinito<. there is certainly enough for the deep house fans in this output as well. >forms< & >cerulean< give off house elements while still firmly places itself in the dub techno sphere. we are sure you will love this release and we are very proud to bring it to you! federsen is in top form here on this long player. check it out! written and produced by chris kelly mastering: subosc studio writeup: tim humphrey

2021 is going to be a tremendous year for the greyscale label. we have lots of exciting news and music coming your way. while the mood series will continue to plug away with its tremendous output in the digital realm, we also recently announced the exposure series will be the vinyl focused material for the label. well, now we have our first full length compilation ready to be released! with no less than 20 tracks over a jam packed double cd, we have featured many up and comers in the scene here as well as many trusted ones. all physical formats are important to us here at greyscale. we want to make sure we are putting efforts forth that the music we release can be treasured by the listeners and supporters of the label in every way. this compilation is packaged with as much pride and beauty as the music within. expect that always at greyscale. 2021 is sure to be one of the best yet for our label and we want to kick it off big with our most in-depth package of music we have released to this point. label owner grad u specifically hand picked this collection of music to be featured on this compilation. so you know it s got to be some of the most foremost examples we have presented previously. we know its early in 2021 but this might be the dub techno compilation of the year to have!

greyscale unveils its latest long player masterpiece! mood series regular altone, has had four eps credited to himself on the label in the past year alone. >forest land< is his first full length and its a deep journey with ten tracks of some of the strongest and most high-quality dub techno in the business. >hunt< & >ethereal night< are not for the faint of heart. these are some of the headiest and immersive tracks we have heard yet at the label. then there is >oak< & >pinecone< which hone in on and harken to a lost age of traditional dub from the mother land. enjoy being transported with >flying leaves< & >downpour< as they give off impressions of scenic landscapes from distant memories. altone then adds a good dancefloor number for those house lovers in the addictive groove >cold ground<. >pebble< is reminiscent of some of the best of intrusion with its gentle waves of chords that surround you like a warm blanket on a cold winters night. lastly, >morning dew< is a standout crescendo bringing the album to a triumphant closing is pure class. >forest land< is guaranteed to have something for everyone and to also impress the most hardened dub techno critics as well. altone is proving he is a name to keep an eye on!

subset is the featured artist for the 17th greyscale full-length. named >this quiet earth<, this 9 track heavyweight of dubby goodness offers a consistent variety of spatialness while the atmosphere clearly surrounds you with its innate charm. heavy chords are consistent characteristic here while the beats are strong and favor more of a steady low tempo. tracks like >the rivers are dry< and >trippy specs< are soaked in reverb with an old skool dub sound while >the community of worlds< and >two halves< are another pair of deep-seated scenic heaters. the steady static over many tracks give off a language of communication to the listener that balances the organic elements extremely well. >lucys sky dreams< is not unlike a classic echospace track with tremendous depth that has you on the edge of your seat. a gentle album across the board that still has a reserved serious tone to it. another fine addition to the camp, subsets debut with us is a memorable one.

anders trentem¿llers career is a travel-heavy one, with his touring schedule taking him pretty much all over the world. but its his home port thats inspired his latest project, the sprawling, stunning compilation mix Ôharbour boat trips vol. 02: copenhagen. clocking in at just over an hour long, the compilation sees trentem¿ller curate and craft sixteen songs into a heavy, hazy mix that ranges from shoegaze to electronica, featuring both familiar and celebrated artists like a place to bury strangers (with a new trentem¿ller remix) and slowdive to more obscure finds, as well as trentem¿llers own tracks and remixes, most notably a brand new trentem¿ller cover of neil youngs classic Ôtransformer man. the mix sees him pick up a thread he left off earlier in his career. in 2009 he put together Ôharbour boat trips - 01: copenhagen, a compilation mix comprised of his favourite music, both danish and international, from across four decades, loosely inspired by the motion and movement of copenhagens busy harbour. closing in on a decade later, were getting the second edition, with Ôharbour boat trips - 02 arriving this november.

dear human survivors,Ê while the story of grounded in humanity is coming closer to its glorious end - there will be 3 more releases before the final showdown of humanity vs. human clones - the birth of our spin-off label human insurgents is taking shape. the first chapter, a 11-track album, is written and told by phat lord - who is also known as leader of the human resistance, trying to put an end to the brutal regency of the clones. phat lord is a true legend of the underground and his origin and location are totally unknown, even for the largest part of the resistance. some say he may even be a clone himselfÉ. the album is a sonic trip through various mental states and dystopic landscapes. it is a result of 8 years moving below the surface and often in the dark, to avoid discovery. he worked with simple, analog methods, focusing on the true essence of sound. we recommend a setting that allows for deep listening and proper bass support.Ê

ah! kosmos das ist ein bestŠndiges wunder, in dem wir hier mittendrin stecken. beim hšren ihrer tracks bleibt immer wieder nur stauen. den soundtrack zu love & awe spielt seit einem halben jahrzehnt basak gŸnak, sound-designerin, produzentin und multi- instrumentalistin aus istanbul. auch auf ihrem zweiten album ãbeautiful swampÒ verbindet sie elastische bis hart knisternde percussions mit melodischen soundlandschaften. dabei gehšren der universalismus der musik und persšnlicher freiheit untrennbar zusammen: tief im gewebe ihrer tracks aus downbeat und deep house, aus tŸrkischen klangtraditionen und exotischen revieren stecken auch €ngste, glŸck und dŸsternis: gŸnaks musik fŠngt auf, was sie in ihrem leben zwischen istanbul und berlin verarbeitet und Ÿberwindet. den hšrenden bleiben so nicht nur soundscapes zu erkunden, sondern vielschichtige, emotionale kosmen, die mit jeder neuen klangschicht ihre widerhaken ins hirn schlagen. lovely mystical electronics!

we return with the sixth installment of the beloved stil vor talent berlin compilation series, which brings forth a group of old and new faces, who exclusively contributed unreleased tracks, gathered under the umbrella of berlins best repurposed space. since flughafen tempelhof ceased operating in 2008, it has given hours upon hours of joy and peace to the cityÕs public in the form of tempelhoferfeld, a gigantic park crisscrossed by the airports former runways. the perfect retreat to unwind in, right on the border of kreuzberg and neukšlln. as always, music is the common denominator and oliver koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while chrisse kunst renders the visuals.

to commemorate our 10 year anniversary celebration, this new release comes in the form of our beloved deepchord presents echospace project. the set was recorded live at ghost in the sound on 05/26/2013 a few miles away from hart plaza. an official movement after party curated by the detroit paranormal society in association with echospace, and now re-mastered by rod modell. from the second the bass dropped, it stole the breath from the room! this duo started off as barely more than a rumor supported mostly by the continous scarcity of their records. the duo comprised of detroits rod modell and steven hitchell have spent nearly two decades producing low-key electronic music both bordering on the verge of myth. theyre considered by many the most noted producers operating in the dub-infused aftermath of the basic channel axis and all its myriad offshoots. once their critically-acclaimed the coldest season emerged on one the uk based modern love imprint, the curtain was unveiled and the sound of echospace was born. they ve often been coined the true heirs to the basic channel legacy but their work finds a home somewhere on the outskirts of the galaxy, where detroit soul ties to jamaican roots played through a tunnel in deep space. this evocative, immersive sound that is echospace was born out of a love and passion for analog circuitry, sound design, field recordings and non-conventional methods of recording. but its also work thats quintessentially building upon the detroit electronic scene where it was born, and that divine marriage of roots and vision make the work at once so highly considered, so pertinent and so timeless. this is the first new album from the echospace duo since the critically-acclaimed silent world (ost) 3lp/cd set dropped 5 years ago, it features live renditions of some of their classics as well as unreleased material. expect gorgeous plumes of sound deeper than the ocean floor, a rich analog tapestry made and performed in the heart of detroit, techno city!

als in den spŠten 80er jahren die ersten outdoor-trance-partys im indischen bundesstaat goa stattfanden, hŠtte niemand gedacht, dass sich dieser trend so lange halten bzw. weiterentwickeln wŸrde. kaum eine andere dance-szene in europa hat ein grš§eres zusammengehšrigkeitsgefŸhl als die goa-szene. hier wird musik und alles, was damit zusammenhŠngt, noch gelebt. zu keinem genre gibt es eine ausgeprŠgtere und besser entwickelte -underground--partyszene, in zahlreichen foren und communitys stehen die fans in regem kontakt. stŠndig finden kleinere veranstaltungen statt, und im sommer sind die gro§en festivals und partys wie waldfrieden wonderland, vuuv festival, alice im wummerland oder psy-purgisnacht immer ausverkauft.

coming together over three years since his critically acclaimed last album, hyetal completes his transformation from off-kilter dance music producer to futurist pop visionary on youth & power.

kuf create emotion-laden dialogues across layers of time and dimensions of sound. voices recorded in private are chopped up and brought out center-stage to sing with beats hammered out right here and now. glowing synths push forward. basslines rise to grab the melodic role of a track while a vowel is truncated and locked into a grid, driving the rhythm. voices move within the frame of a sample, performed by hands pushing keys, guided by the ear, immersed in a trio sessions deep flowÉ a vortex of quirky hands, responsive ears and glowing circuits. since thomas a. edison first recorded the human voice in 1877, the recording arts have changed music forever. musicians have explored the endless possibilities of bouncing their input onto layers of tape, off the walls of an echo chamber or the circuitry of electronic helpers - technology that modulates, spatializes, shifts, divides or multiplies the work of human hands and mouths. an era of sampling offered a cubistic analysis of the recorded past and djs took dancers onto intricately fractured time travels. this is the historic foundation that kuf keep probing. just like the sampler and the dj before them, they found new ways to re-allocate where machine and man stand when making music together. most importantly, they turn the resulting friction into sparkling bursts of energy. Ôuniverse digs deeper into the android vocal chords. the album offers sweeping melodies, different beats and persistent bass. immerse in the intimacy of the voices, probably recorded in trains, backstage areas and at late night private parties during berlin lichtenberg warehouse rehearsals. by striking the keys, kuf squeeze out and serve up all the soul accumulated in those savory phonetic shreds.

hot off the heels of the beautiful obsolete machines lp released this month, radiuss cassette demo restoration project returns to form with the interpolation tapes series. the original source tapes had aged, warped and degraded and as a result we ve preserved the best segments, sampled and reprocessed with a vintage prophet 2000 sampler, studio 440 and various linn samplers to add depth and range to the original source material. we ve spent nearly an entire year restoring and interpolating over 100 hours of music, processing sound and redesigning the blueprints of this long forgotten project. every track was originally recorded down to an old tascam 688, an 8 track cassette recorder purchased and abused since 1992 and to our ears still sounds quite impressive even by modern standards. we ve had nearly every component replaced and re-calibrated to bring this obsolete machine back to life. it s been a truly nostalgic experience re-visiting and re-arranging these masters, regardless of the time passed, there s so much depth in sound design, raw emotions and when considering the limitations of hardware in the era these were recorded, they ve truly aged like a fine wine. we hope you enjoy this magical time in music, as we are very inspired by all that was happening in those years, theres undeniably something in the air, a mystifying energy, long may it live on.

rezzs involvement in the toronto scene helped grow her gritty style. events like bassmentality and older shows at the legendary guverment helped shape not only rezz, but an era of electronic music producers who became inspired from early dj college tours. mass manipulation is a commentary on how easily our minds can become manipulated by the things we consume in society. we consume heavily through the media, which, in turn, tries to curate our thoughts and dictate how we as humans are supposed to live and behave. this album plays off this idea and invites people to become hypnotized, allowing their brains to be manipulated by my music in the hope they might see things through a new perspective (perhaps an outer world viewpoint) one where everyone is free from the unrealistic expectations planet earth has drawn for them. a world of acceptance and hypnosis.

recently, superpitcher was invited to go on a safari in south africa. he bought a custom made safari hat at his favorite milliner in cologne (ju&#776,rgen eifler) and set off with big eyes and a pair of binoculars. it was wild and wonderful and he saw many exotic (and big!) animals, even a leopard in a tree that told him the secret of the universe. he forgot what the leopard said because his mind was still playing and replaying the sound of what he heard on the first night of his arrival Ð the hypnotic and moving sound of the voices of africa, the voices of the wonderful tanda tula staff choir. there, the choir members work during the day at the camp and at night entertain the guests with their captivating voices and energetic dancing. so impressed was he with their songs and beautiful shangaan language that he decided to record a cd for them to sell in the shop at their camp and now this precious recording is also available through hippie dance / bush recordings on vinyl and cd for you in whatever wherever camp you are. the lp of the tanda tula choir comes with a very pretty poster.
