the alfur ep is the second in the trilogy of records written by individual members of the old apparatus collective, which will be released in three month-by-month instalments.
alfur, produced by a. levitas, offers a view of the rusted old apparatus universe from another angle, a suite of songs that weave together deep feeling and influence into a complex and very listenable ep, built for deep listening at loud volumes. alfur is a mystical, deeply atmospheric five track set, recalling the spooked ambience of third eye foundation and earlier tricky material, with gauzy layers filtered through electronica and hip hop’s modern digital mechanics.

london based audio visual collective old apparatus have started their own label, sullen tone, with their first ep derren dropping in july. with two releases on dubstep pioneer malas deep medi label under their belt, and - in contrast - a tape of improvised electro-acoustic music for berlin-based the tapeworm, the group formed sullen tone to provide a home for old apparatus to elaborate and expand on their vision and allow the listener to be drawn even further into their compellingly beautiful yet destructive dystopian world.

nice price deal !!! get ready for the next release from distored revelation. after the succes of their latest release, that has been supported by artists like neophyte, evil activities, panic, promo and many more, it is time for some new mayor bangers! this new release contains two massive tracks. mister ryan & the glory of the old gold!

mercury are on fire. already they are called the new swiss house mafia, with their brothers from round table knights (on made to play) they are working on a new, funky, heavy energetic kind of house music. here is mercurys third single on gomma. three deep jams. deeper then the last single. paris house 1998, and gospel percussion from the 20th century, if you know what we mean

the rebirth of cool m=minimal is pleased to release a masterpiece of the early 21st century on vinyl. till the old worlds blown up and a new one is created is an outstanding work of reductionism and minimalism. martin brandlmyar ( radian / trapist / kapitalband 1 ), werner dafeldecker ( polwechsel, david sylvian, autistic daughters) and christian fennesz ( touch / mego / thrill jockey ) on this record created a new kind of cool jazz coupled with a big portion of new york school ( cage, feldman, brown und wolff). its hard to describe the music with words. this work reveals his secrets only after listening to it a couple of times. it grows with each time you listen to it. in this work, silence and noise are never used as an end in itself. as equal parameters they stand in the composition that also has space for some tonal >flower<. our recommended listening time is – round about midnight.

the first release from nm black is ganja man, ganja woman, produced by nm’s new signing killa mosquito, a production collective fresh on the scene fronted by curtis lynch. in keeping with the necessary mayhem tradition, the bass is at its maximum and the drums are even heavier. this bass-heavy track features vocals from international reggae star, mr williamz, as well as a host of samples from old-school reggae soundtapes. on side b of the release, there is an exclusive dub from killa mosquito entitled ganja dub. less vocals, more bass!
already getting love from mainstream radio djs, such as rinse fms crises, this track, and label, is set to be massive.

brilliant deep detroit house 3 track vinyl

joss moog with his next groovin chicago house... check track 3 >> thats what ur... killa

justin berkovi normally should not need an introduction, being involved in multiple techno-projects in the past, and still standing strong nowadays. his track ‘old timer’ reflects his musical personality and history and is being reinterpreted by another techno-historian, aubrey. on the b-side newcomers jack dixon and henning baer make their introduction on other heights with two total different interpretations which are to become oldtimers themselves.

manmakemusic continue their adventure into the musical hinterland beyond bass, techno, house and garage with two cuts from new signing, trikk. hailing from porto, portugal, and a recent addition to londons kaleidoscopic music scene, trikk effortlessly marries old school charm with new school edge. a-side, ‘jointly’, takes robert hood-esque jackin’ techno drums and unites them with twisted garage vocal chops and relentless bass. on the flip, ‘i fall down’ takes things down a gear with an emotive mix of cavernous synth lines, heartbroken vocals and skipping drums which harks back to the finest moments of broken beat.

as dmob said in the early 1988 we call acid - the musical phenomenon that makes you want to dance, that puts you in a trance, that move you to the beat. in 2012 a turin mysterious artist know as a.m.b. ( acid music band ) decided to follow the way to acid music, inspired by the acid guru as virgo or tyree cooper and the first techno workers as underground resistance or juan atkins he produced two tracks only with analog instruments and acid attitude. acid music band sounds like an orchestra, the man is the music director and the machines are the players. we are young so we asked help from an old expert… directly from the chi-city, ricardo miranda contributed to create an overall ep with his fantastic boogie remix. old and young records.. we love acid too.

daniel dexter is the latest new talent to emerge as part of the poker flat crew. after some success with his strong, futuristic productions on exploited records, the berlin based producer has found a new home in steve bugs modern house magnate. the moody, storming >no house for old men< is a superb example of daniels talents. synth-heavy, dramatic and restrained, this slow burning houser lifts and climbs into spacey, ecstatic moments as its detroit influenced keys and carl craig-esque peaks bring it home. the groovy >who knows motorcity< works a simple yet addictive theme in a powerful pop-house moment, especially designed for summertime evening action. clean, bright percussion and rubbery synths flavour this delightful second course! the deeper, hypnotic tones of >the other day< have an almost soundtrack quality as subtle key changes and detailed sound design take this track into more subterranean realms. melancholic yet positive in its resolution, this is future house music in its prime!

one of italy’s strongest techno forces returns with his third release for sonic groove. obtanes latest expedition comes in the form of two songs. >utopian man< starts the release off . a highly infectious foot and mind burner with sweeping bass sounds, dark atmospherics & solid rhythms. overlap this with catchy detroit styled keyboard stabs and you are in for a 10 minute ride into worlds unknown. as one ride ends the next one begins with symbology of decline. this banger of a peak time dance floor techno track wreaks of old school belgian techno flavor. the main hook of the track sweeps and swooshes its way through the speaker cones while the drums punish the speakers and listener further into submission. the perfect formulation of rhythm and sound and another 1/2 knock out punch from obtane.
