brian kage returns on michigander with the, best kept secret ep. kage once again provides three deeply emotional dance tracks filled with his signature warmth that immediately draw connections between personal memories and michigan’s natural splendor. best kept secret starts the record off with tones of hypnotic bells that cascade down from within minor chords that hypnotize the listener until they are met with swelling strings to tie the infectious grooves to intelligent vintage percussion. lush vocals continue building into an atmosphere of nostalgia and eventually gives way to that moment of intimacy that can only be felt outdoors while exploring with a person they love. lost on old free-soil road features a detuned analog synth-line that winds up and down over a bed of spooky night-time forest field-recordings which are encompassed by a jackin’ 909 beat . suddenly, juno stabs straight from the 80’s pierce through sending the syncopated grooves back the direction they came from taking dancers along for the joyful ride. cruise control on us-31 rounds out the record with an infectious blend of pitched wooden toms, warm mid-range bass, deep 303 lines, and a smoky pad straight from a vintage rhodes. all these elements help keep the composition positive & relaxing, while expertly conjuring the feeling of sun on your face. this tune is the perfect tool for any dj interested in luring day-partiers to a space where they can’t resist bobbing their heads and enjoying their summer outside. related items

according to white material pair galcher lustwerk and alvin aronson, their first collaborative album under the studio ost alias contains a mix of breezy electro, aquatic dub, high speed jit, and shimmering atmospherics. while clearly tongue-in-cheek, it s a fairly accurate description. certainly, there s a fluidity, moodiness and palpable sense of atmosphere at the heart of scenes, which casually drifts between hard-edged club workouts, hazy post-club fare and dreamy, horizontal experiments. it was apparently recorded over a three-year period, during jam sessions at various new york studios. its the spontaneous aspect of its creation that has the biggest effect, and makes the whole thing feel like fleeting snapshots of moments in time.

freedom wig ist der name des mittlerweile dritten studioalbums des norwegischen duos ost & kjex. zehn tracks, die wieder einmal perfekt den spagat zwischen indie und underground electronica schaffen und dabei nichts vom typischen ost & kjex-humor vermissen lassen. wie das genau klingt? vom jazzigen intro von honky tonk, über die extrem tanzbare bassline von chachacha, bis zu den tropischen xylophon-klängen in down river und dem fast schon spirituellen summen von easy bietet dieses album ein extravagantes feuerwerk für die ohren. und das spürt man vor allem bei den einzigartigen und energiegeladenen live-shows der skandinavier. schön, dass es noch künstler gibt, die uns daran erinnern, nicht alles zu ernst zu nehmen.

big bear brian kage drops some nice house flavours on fxhe record by our one and only omar s.

on his first release for droid recordings, master sound technician brian sanhaji drops two hard, gritty tracks. a1, * macronomena* , is an unmissable, surprising thrill. a filthy, grainy bass synth gets mangled by filters and lfo, pushed out of time, and forced back into a perfect, funky lock with the pummeling beat. nearly five minutes in, the machine breaks down and falls apart, only to slam back into groove with new, jack-oriented elements. b2, * synphone*, plays things straighter, manipulating the optimal gears and levers of the techno toolkit for an undeniable dance floor mover.

brian harden is back on d3 elements with a new three track ep that once again explores richly musical deep house with a difference

debut release from brian ring. raised in cork on a diet of us-american house music and disco oscillating between sylvester and glenn underground, while sneaking into clubs underaged (see sir henrys for further reference) ring was baptised by by david mancuso and theo parrish in london (thank you easyjet) while his record collection grew and grew. living in berlin now, an epiphany in some remote parts of australia (it was 42 degrees!) resulted in him following his own path in making music. so, here we go: the movements ep brings together mike dunn (sample has been cleared, folks), timothy leary and tee scott puts disco roller skates on heavy legged deep house and is most of all as much fun as it is sincere. all in a certain way that is personally his.

original motion picture soundtrack. 12 new compositions by gesaffelstein. pressed on two 180gram heavyweight vinyl. screenprinted gold on black gatefold & inner sleeves. musical score art print on x-ray paper. limited to 1000 copies worldwide
