having established salt mines and appeared on lost palms and x-kalay, rudolf c has wasted no time in establishing himself as a producer of note in the deep house underground. now he s stepping up to sensu with the endoplazm ep, showing off yet more of the seductive tones he s been building his name on. keep it up is a hazy, woozy roller while endoplazm gets into a tricky acid mindset. uniform is a peppy cut with atmospherics to cool down the snapping drums, and mizty mountain hop takes things on a supremely deep tip to round the ep off in fine style.

still hope is their second single and the follow up to motorway jam (their double a side with palms trax from late last year) which sees them collaborate with anthony anaxagorou, a british born cypriot award winning poet and essayist, whose poetry and fiction have appeared on bbc newsnight, bbc4, itv and vice. hearing his lyrics via their good friend simbad, secretsundaze connected with anthony and still hope is the fruit of their labour. the original is a potent and political spoken word piece delivered over a rolling house groove. definitely one for the deeper moments with its late night heady feel and full vocal not letting up. the poems in the heart floor version strips the vocal back and adds dramatic strings for a more direct dance floor approach. ex slum village detroit producer waajeed released a couple of killer eps in 2017 on his own dirt tech reck imprint so we had to get him aboard for the remix. his detroit hardcore dub does what is says on the tin and is a peak time slammer while his searching dub goes down a jazzier, spacey route with live sounding drums and dreamy pads.

as part of the ten-year anniversary dekmantel presents the final record in a ten-part-ep series. split into two parts due to its immensity, the final instalment is a re-issue of tony allens asiko (in a silent mix) originally released in 1999 and remixes by motor city drum ensemble and ricardo villalobos. the first part features a grandiose 29-minute ricardo villalobos version of the afrobeat masters cut. a true collaboration of giants.having been a regular at the festival for several years now, villalobos delivers a remix, one of his longest to date, that only he can produce. allowing the percussion to breathe into a monumental rhythm, villalobos warps the vocals, restructuring the bass and drums into a rolling dub-fusion of techno that is characteristic of his remixes to date, yet still breathtaking in its execution. afrobeat-minimalism, with dub-infused fire, and near psychedelic ambience that perfectly synchs the worlds of tony allen, and ricardo villalobos, two legends who’ve helped re-shape the face of music. highlighting the diversity of sounds that have come to represent the dutch label and festival series, the eps to date have encompassed a range of artists and genres, featuring label favourites, as well as whole bunch of debuting artists. the ep series kicked off in march 2018, and over the course of a year featured the likes of gigi masin, lena willikens, burnt friedman, donato dozzy, the egyptian lover, palms trax, and more.

after the success of the first full album ‘dagxnacht, the group formed by gilles helsen (keys) and freek vreys (guitar) expands with jazz-percussionist cas kinnaer. the musical recipe of seizoensklanken remains the same: instrumental compositions balancing between colourful afrobeat and intimate electronica.

dudi004 is this wonderful 9 track record (4 remixes + 5 originals) by aporia. the singer with the angel-like voice and the marvelous synthesizer melodies from new zealand. lean back and dive into wonderland. these tracks are smooth like baby skin. trippy synths and balearic gentleness or as aporia describes it supernatural, synthetic, tropical rock n roll. furthermore, we include 4 fantastique remixes by lits801, aussteiger, cosmic palms and s&w.

college ist eines der musikalischen projekte des französischen musikers david grellier, der auch als valerie und mitch silver bekannt ist. der film-soundtrack zu “drive” machte ihn über nacht berühmt. der song “a real hero” von college war einer der beiden pop-tracks (mit “under your spell” von desire), welche die schlüsselszenen des films untermalten und den soundtrack so berühmt machten. “shanghai” ist ein konzeptalbum, welches stimmungen dieser stadt reflektiert. dies hört sich über weite strecken wie ein imaginärer soundtrack im 80s electro-gewand an. mit dem stück “love peas” ist gewissermaßen ein chinesischer song geboten, der in die fußstapfen von “a real hero” treten könnte. fans von johnny jewel/chromatics sollten hier herein hören!

yet again the leafs are turning neon golden, reminding us of the change of seasons lying at the edge of our doorstep. the first cold breezes and the fading warmth of the sun, which we just took for granted so easily, sketch the outline of that mild and soothing melancholia resting in autumn s palms. a mood we can very well enjoy to bury in deeply and with luise s newest release listen to closely. -mentis excessus- is a tenderly crafted tale, a musical journey that paints broad images of false memories and blurry resemblances. like a déjà-vu that lasts too long to put aside, it crawls up your neck to give you that eerie feeling of curiosity with which you look at the uncanny world that suddenly surrounds you. we are very pleased to welcome -wide awake- as the most recent addition to luises s sheltered, little family, a project that has its foundations at the talented hands and hearts of -niju-, -ninze- & -okaxy-. these three banded together for greater good to provide nothing less, but their as well as laut & luise s first album. not restless, no insomnia, just wide awake.
