kepler sound district return for a second release with four prime cuts

beranek’s debut album, “sound of danger”, was released on mind expanding records in november 1981. nowhere near as accessible as the previous single, the album fared poorly commercially. withdrawing from the single’s fun, kitsch pop, the album is cool and static, driven by thin rhythm boxes, cold synths, and glacial guitars. taking heavy cues from david bowie, all of the songs are sung in a nasally english accent, a rare occurrence in norway at the time. the lyrics are melancholic, but tinged with paranoia. there are also upbeat tracks that evoke a prog or glam sensibility a la king crimson, alan parsons, or roxy music. all songs have been remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. housed in the original jacket featuring red, black, and white lines that evoke a visualized richter scale designed by monica moltzau. each copy includes a 2-sided 8x11” insert with lyrics and an autographed press photo of beranek.

based in california, banana stand sound has been wrecking expectations and setting forth new musical streams consistently for two years now. its discography is a diverse display of tribal stompers, melodic groove spectacles and everything in between, which excites the labels unarguably exquisite taste. over the years theyve gained steady advocacy from institutions such as fatkidonfire and trusik among others, as well as by a long list of highly esteemed djs and producers from the likes of j:kenzo, benga, compa, skream and joe nice.

‘fear eats the soul’ is the third release from sordid sound system on invisible inc. his previous two records ‘in a year of 13 moons’ and ‘lux exterior’ have been getting plays from the likes of andrew weatherall, manfredas, john talabot, idjut boys and thomas von party. describing ‘fear eats the soul’ as a concept ep made by four imaginary bands from detroit, new york, paris and munich, sordid sound system says: “i’m pissed off with passive aggressive shabby chic artisan boutiques besieging my studio and complaining about the noise, i’m pissed off with coked up yuppy hipsters in land rovers taking over my neighbourhood with fancy restaurants with names that sound like fucking law firms, i’m pissed off at the resurgence of the far right and creeping fascism, i’m pissed off with self sabotaging english and american voters and the neo liberal corporate elites that have pissed away opportunities and alienated them, i’m pissed off with modern recording technology creating a sea of homogenous unimaginative beige bullshit, and i’m really pissed off that my favourite drummer jaki leibezeit is dead, but apart from that it’s all good, enjoy the new record.”

for our 57th release we’re stoked to be bringing you some heavy new biz from the one and only ron basejam. this man is responsible for some of the classiest disco-influenced house music dating back to ’05 when his anthemic for the people blew our minds and soundtracked many an after-party so perfectly. recent ep’s on eskimo, wolf music, futureboogie and top notch remixes for the likes of people must jam, brownswood and classic have all delivered in spades. here on the sound of a feeling ep we have three brilliant raw, stripped and chopped analogue jams plus the first ever remix from tee mango who comes hot off his stunning debut lp imperfections on millionhands.

produced and recorded in 1965 during a time when chicago soul was one of the most influential sounds in r&b.the dontells entered the studio and cut two tracks that put that sound on full display. the session was led by producer calvin carter, world famous arranger johnny pate-along with the cities top musicians. these tracks were never released and have only been heard by a few people until now. the a side “move on down the line” grabs you from the first second the needle drops. a mid tempo love song with a trademark arrangement from pate and a vocal melody and approach in the style of chicago’s king of soul, curtis mayfield. “there goes a fool” is the b side and is a reminder why the dontells were one of the best groups out of the windy city. another brilliant production with a top notch arrangement. horns, strings, a swinging backbeat and that signature chicago vocal sound lead by the sweet harmonies of nate, leroy, manuel & ralph. this is no doubt a 60’s soul classic in 2017!

sound mirror presents the debut release of another new talent from the orson wells clique. hailing from the deeper westside of frankfurt (south hessia), please welcome: gerait, head honcho of bockenheim housenation. sweet ambient sounds slide into an epic deep house stomper on side a, followed by an atmospheric and lush minimal synth disco track on b1, plus a bass heavy, slightly eery and sort of tribal rhythm track on b2. another great eclectic and well rounded 12? ep.

the great gatsby by f. scott fitzgerald has gone down in history as a timeless classic and is still enjoyed by readers and forced on students the world over. fitzgerald s greatest literary masterpiece was hidden not amongst his writings, but his record collection. having spent his entire life mastering writing, he was finally able to convey his indescribable experiences with long island sound by painstakingly carving the entire sonic experience into vinyl with a sharpened quill. having been now restored and reproduced, kyoku records are inordinately thrilled to present to you this miraculous work as kyoku003 - long island sound - last place you look ep.

two years on from his critically acclaimed self-titled debut lp and 2016’s similarly transcendent club hit safe/multiply, ghost culture is pleased to announce his new ep nucleus. due for release on phantasy, nucleus, captures the enigmatic london artist’s signature sound in the reflection of unexpected, vibrant new lights. leading with the understated groove of ‘coma’, ghost culture quickly reaffirms his unwavering ability to hold the collective energy of a dancefloor, yet colours his latest work with a sense of intimacy and experimentation that resonates stronger than ever. ‘ico130’ explores almost every facet of ghost culture’s electronic form, as gasping synths and stuttering drum patterns flirt with an aching, unfurling emotional vocal sample, acknowledging both classic idm influences such as aphex twin and authechre, while subtly nodding towards contemporary, crystalline rnb. the ep’s centrepiece, ‘ngc1275’ adds flavour to a stirring, reflective acid line, amid a complex flurry of minor deconstructions and distortions, highlighting ghost culture’s unique, contrarian ability to inspire both beckoning darkness and escapist fantasy through his work. while the opening half of the five track ep is more primed for the night, nucleus’ leads to an introspective denouement. ‘perseus’ pits raw electronics against a framework of loose, lucid drums, before ‘ngc1265’ delivers a wistful, brooding conclusion that makes an emotive case that impacts powerfully across just a short sketch.

nice price deal !!! unveiling themselves as oliver caird and if music owner jean-claude of the amalgamation of soundz fame, the formerly anonymous london based dub and bass duo cessa are back with a brilliant 2-tracker on their missing link sounds. on the a side is >nameless<, a lurcher filled with shuffling 2-step rhythms, warm subs and skittering electronics, which builds to reveal a dark kick drum halfway through the track. the flipside is an entirely different affair, hypnotic and overflowing with warm dubby baselines…

funk is a dish best served hot and these two modern funk anthems are bound to get your body temperature up.“cupid’s arrow” recounts a tale of genuine love at first sight over an infectious synth funk groove, it’s honest and true to life content make it very relate-table to anyone who has been awestruck by a woman’s beauty. “let’your body show you how” is an up-tempo modern funk tune that covers the story of a young man who conquers a high school crush after a chance meeting. the songs hypnotic bass line and hard-hitting drums are well complemented by asterix music’s silky vocals.

dsc welcomes back boris bunnik, this time under his conforce moniker. two contrasting tracks are the offering. heavy thump introduces kernal of truth. angular melodies are painted on glass as a complex composition unfurls under the strain of galvanized percussion. the aquatic -oasis- occupies the flip. notes gentle lap a shoreline of burbling bass and distant percussion. echoes are submerged, folded in on themselves, as absorbing ambience envelops. two wonderfully different sides to the conforce sound.

the always trustworthy sound carrier label steps back into the limelight to hit us with another fix of quality techno from monsieur chris carrier. the parisian producer never stops making music, and he presents three new extra terrestrial cuts here on this latest instalment from his excellent label. the story here is about two powerful intergalactic beings who discover that they have been lied to by their leaders - there are no magic mushrooms, just a forest of poisoned ones. they have laid down their arms to discuss this despicable turn of events… track one is a rolling slice of analogue techno with acid licks and squelches bubbling away at its core. named ‘cat’s eye nebula’ it sucks us in to an interplanetary vortex, with cosmic fx transporting to the interior of a spaceship, while the beats give the feeling of a bumpy ride into the cosmos. this is followed by the more composed solemnity of ‘galactus’. shuffling beats slide over a funky bassline, the outer space theme continues with carrier implementing a series of manipulated sounds which convey the feeling of futuristic machinery, blinking dashboards or robots communicating with one another. finally, we have ‘dark poison’, the inspiration behind the whole ep. more deep 303 vibes on this with a simmering analogue riff, percussion which increases in intensity alongside several layers of melodramatic effects, high-pitched twinkles and chimes which really add to the tension

burnski and jon woodall s constant sound label continues to reach skywards following the formers essential dna album, welcoming the ever-reliable laura jones and stephen brown into the mix with a collaborative effort that matches club precision with machine soul in equal measure. -crystalline- works around detroit motifs to great effect, while -concave- ramps up the swing factor for a spacey number that gets fancy with the fx. -pv- too does a fine job of making the synths ping around the mix with a jammed-out feel, while endian delivers a remix of -nothing lost- that leans on berlin techno dynamics while injecting some colour into the situation.

why why why by the woodentops is a turntable hit in the birth of the balearic club scene. arriving first in 1985 as a mix by adrian sherwood, a regular amnesia track and again in 1987, as a live and far more up-tempo version from a number one live album.
