for over 40 years orchestre poly rythmo de cotonou has combined traditional beninese music with soul, funk, afrobeat, rhumba and cuban rhythms to create this infectious soundà hailing from benin, west africa, orchestre poly rythmo de cotonou has been churning out incendiary afro grooves since 1966. on bosq meets poly rythmo uptown, bosq tastefully reworks 4 of orchestre poly rythmo s legendary recordings. as a die-hard fan, bosq took a subtle approach to the project. according to him orchestre poly rythmo has been a strong influence on his work and he wanted to be respectful to the original tracks. bosq focused on making the tracks dj friendly by beefing up the low end, rearranging and stretching parts out, and adding in extra percussion and a drum machine. the result is a 4-track ep of bumpy afro disco, psychedelic funk, frenzied afrobeat, and sunny soulful grooves. based in medellin, colombia, bosq has released a collection of music on ubiquity records, soul clap records, fania records, razor-n-tape, and more. since 2015, sol power sound, out of washington, dc has released deep sounds inspired by rhythms and traditions from around the globe. the label s output includes afro-latin stompers, re-edits of lost disco grooves, heady percussive tech workouts, and other sonic treats. four stone-cold classic orchestre poly rythmo de cotonou tracks re-shaped by bosq for the dancefloor today..

man power has proven on many occasions to be adept at all manner of different moods within the hardware house canon, but on this occasion hes particularly focusing on creating an exotic feeling out of mechanical means. tropical bastard is a fitting title for this project for not an animal records, with the original steeped in driving patterns of rhythm and melody that approximate a flavour of far flung lands while mutating the feeling into something more club-minded. lord of the isles goes one step further with a remix that ramps the modulation up to devilishly wonky levels. tropical bastard 2inch is an entirely different beast that plays on a cinematic vision of tropical escape, but with an acid thread pulsing through it. then the frank butters remix finishes the ep off with a more submerged, but equally mischievous take.

>dusty ... definitely< from 1968 is considered one of her best albums. more a pop production than its predecessors, on it she explored more and different genres than she had done before, the cover >take a little piece of my heart< and motown-styled >aint no sun since you ve been gone< were produced by a young john paul jones (who had just gained fame with led zeppelin), and the album also features >who<, written by charles aznavour, and the indelible >think its gonna rain today<, written by randy newman.

total science are back to grace their own imprint cia records, and this time they enlist the musical and technical prowess of fellow bristol associates hydro and war alongside themselves on the reign ep. made up of four killer slabs of fast paced, moving and deep drum & bass, the influence of each party is immediately obvious in each track. total science are infamous for their breaks and rave influences that have often been present in their music since they first started releasing in the early 1990�s. hydro has been releasing music since 2007, working with a slew of respected producers such as break, dlr, fd and halogenix amongst many others. he is infamous for his epic sample collection and the deep and deadly vibe that he brings to tracks. and the young french extraordinaire war has already shown he is a force to be reckoned with, consistently releasing music with a sublime depth and musicality that belies his age � and also a power and punch that consistently rips clubs to shreds. the reign ep brings the finest attributes of each of the parties to the table, and results in a well-rounded collection of music that offers something to a wide range of listeners. whether you want to lock them into a groove, tear the roof off the club, or get them thinking about what will come next in this world, the reign ep has it in spades.

edanticonf s music feels perfectly crafted for the brooding atmospheric venues he so often performs in. both the aforementioned adjectives can be attributed to his style of techno too, one that places the focus less on the technical side and more onthe human one, aiming to reflect his emotions and state of being through the hazy soundscapes that draw influence from the natural scenery around him.

copenhagen�s echocord colour returns this august with stephen brown�s �power factor� ep, featuring three originals from the uk techno stalwart. scottish producer stephen brown is a name synonymous with techno across the globe having been releasing material since the mid nineties on imprints such as derrick may�s transmat, subject detroit, skudge records, ben sims� theory and holland�s djax up beats amongst many more. here we see brown join the roster of echocord�s sub-label colour, slotting him in alongside the likes of mike dehnert, nick ho&#776,,,ppner, luke hess and deadbeat in the back- catalogue. up first on the release is �sandtext�, a stripped-back dubbed out opening cut fuelled by a robust kick and minute percussive hits running alongside a sturdy sub bass drive and spiralling dub stabs before �wet� takes things even deeper via muted kicks, shuffling shakers and delayed synth chords. �back stroke� then rounds out the release with an amalgamation of airy reverberated stab hits, rumbling low end pulsations and a thunderous kick drum to once again create an understated, hypnotic composition.

red axes have come a long way since the 2014 s ballad of the ice. tel-aviv, now a scene and sound that the duo were instrumental in putting on the map, has burst onto the world stage armed with limitless electronic bravado and the city s strong guitar music heritage. now, the much loved duo return, sophomore album in tow on their own label garzen records.

invisible, inc. again turn to the mystic sounds of the fourth world for their latest release by bringing cosmic voyager peter power into the fold. previously only available digitally �awake into life� by peter power & friends� finally comes out on vinyl courtesy of the like-minded invisible inc. alongside peter himself, the �friends� are a band of well known and not-so-well known collaborators from around the world: australia�s bronze savage (aficionado recordings) and brazil�s psilosamples (desmonta/octave) to name just two. the resulting mystical brew is meditative, hypnotic and indeed deeply psychedelic.....and most certainly well worthy of seeing the light of day as a physical release. originally hailing from the emerald isle of ireland and settling for a while in berlin, peter power now resides in bahia, brazil close to where the world famous and free-wheeling voodoohop collective sprung its roots on the streets and clubs of sao paolo. peter has been a continuing member of the voodoohop crew for a couple of years and has toured with them extensively as both musician and performer. respected as a dj and a producer his unique world-flavoured brand of electronic music has been released on multi culti, kleine reise, crime city, polychrome sounds and now invisible, inc. limited to 300 copies with download card. copies come individually hand-numbered.

forgotten idols lie smashed and scattered across the floor. dissonant undercurrents coerce a riptide of shattered beats as duran duran duran speeds into sight and docks directly into your neurological pathways. tracks swarm into your mind effortlessly dismantling the techno mainframe. refracted acid takes �sexus� to a place where famished ghosts leer at each other across a mist-infused steam room. repeated listenings reveal new fissures, fresh layers emerge as we scrape away at the glacial enormity of this techno scree-face. redemption is in sight as we take a final pasting on �marathon man�, a track so banging as to provoke a wry smile on the face of any seasoned raver. at its climax it screeches under the weight of its intensity, flinging its subjects into a feral transcendence.

berlin based pardon moi, consisting of james brook and thomas freudenthal, makes music that would fit perfect as a soundtrack for a ride in a ferrari gto convertible, or on a transatlantic flight on a concorde. unfortunately, vintage ferraris are ridiculously expensive and concords are taken out of flight but still the music creates an air of luxury and decadence for you to fill your lungs and air with. this 7inch release on hoga nord rekords is the first on the label but the duo have released material on nein records and vocoder electro.

folamour represents the present and future sounds of the disco/house hybrid, staying true to the glitterbox sonic philosophy. his tracks share the same production values as the timeless records from classic disco imprints in the late 70s, melodies are super-tightly harmonised, instrumentation is lively and the rhythms are designed purely for dance. �the power and the blessing of unity� is almost a mini album, exploring all the facets of folamour�s sophisticated house and disco tendencies. the title track sparkles with brass stabs and a textbook swinging disco beat, �island of recent father� breaks things down into synthy house goodness, �let�s grab some smokes� channels a more contemporary low-fi sound and bringing it home with �home beyond the clouds�, folamour closes with uplifting house hooks and percussion. it�s a real trip.

with -nekromant- the labelheads avidus are back on empore music, to present their darker side. the original consists of powerful arpeggiators rolling on a triplet-beat with a trancy vibe. the remix from jens-uwe beyer, formerly known as popnoname and as the curator of the label magazine, delivers a dreamy remix from the original with nice organic percussive elements. berlin based sebastian voigt, who has been making waves with his release on outcast oddity, completes the remixes with a straightened interpretation of the original back to a 4 to the floor beat, even adding even more drive and power if compared to the original. the ep comes full circle with a beatless -synthapella- from the original.

newcastle-born, mexico-based man power debuts on optimo trax with two psychasonic missives cut extra loud for optimum sound system performance. we asked man power for some words about this release and he told us - -both tracks sound different, but they re both from the same place in as much as they represent a conscious effort by me to strip back some of unnecessary niceties in my music and really sharpen my focus on what makes people dance without crossing the fine line of what makes me sound like me.�

multi culti s lucid-lifestyle dreamer peter power takes us on a free-wheeling trip to the motherland on afro damba. the irish-born voodoohop resident has returned from the jungles of bahia with a fresh ep of primal party tracks sampling voices and rhythms from across africa and it s neighbouring islands, producing what is easily his most club-oriented work to date. whereas his tracks for voodoohop were spiritual flute-heart-openers, these are neo-pagan mating-ritual floor-fillers. the rhythm is set to tribal chug, with rollicking percussion, reverb-soaked vocals, and all the fun jangly bells & bits you expect to be hanging off such a well-traveled producer. if that weren t enough, we enlisted romanian-dance-duo khidja to rework adama waro resident mix-lord dreems also weighs in with a subtle remix of dansakoni, gently upping the tempo and tweaking the knobs in selfless service of the original groove.

the 12th installment in the falling ethics series is an adventurous piece of work. tensal and p.e.a.r.l. team up on this split ep to showcase their production styles which are mainly built around crafty drum loops and buoyant synth experiments.
tensal takes care of the a-side where he takes care of one flaming techno cut for the dancefloor which is followed up by two adventurous pieces of electronica.
p.e.a.r.l. also took care of three cuts on the b-side. the opening track �joy of rapture� is a straight forward demonstration of machine heavy techno. �fall before you� is a deep and soul wrenching cut that showcases p.e.a.r.l.�s more delicate side. �red flame� is a piece of horror reminiscent ambient.

weiss, limitiert und nummeriert! knapp drei jahre nach dem bis dato erfolgreichsten montreal album sonic ballroom legt das nordische trio um flutlichtgestalt max power endlich nach und wie gewohnt noch eine spatelspitze drauf. die 12 lieder auf schackilacki kommen in sachen sound, melodie und textlicher finesse derart direkt und unn¸tig aufgeblasen daher, dass nach 31.15 minuten schlicht keine fragen mehr offen sind. bleibt das fragezeichen, das der albumtitel erstmal in den gesichtern mancher zeitgenossen hinterl§sst... aber da winkt max power z§rtlich ab: wer auf anhieb nicht ahnt, was schackilacki ist, der wird es auch nach noch so motivierten erkl§rungsversuchen nicht verstehen

during kris baha s migration north, an introduction with berlin cult figure dane//close has led to power station s latest offering and debut mini lp the miniature industrial complex. originally released on limited cassette via noisekolln tapes, the lp brilliantly displays the sameheads resident s appetite for all things wave, industrial and weird, with an eye firmly to the floor. opener rockbox plays like a forgotten b-side dub, 80s drums chug as brazen noises bounce off a delicately nostalgic lead. fourth voice slings low, incessant bass drones as sci-fi vox and metallic hits to the rhein. mercy mercy increases the tempo, an arpeggio leads the way as intensity rises, unnerving samples introduce a flurry of gunshot snares. flip over to ancient rome , a dancefloor musica lirica complete with a forward baseline, air raid sirens and raw drum workouts, the fall of the roman empire! not part of the original cassette release, beard maintains the energy, wild guitar shreds in a neurotic ritmo frenzy alan vega crossing into 2016 dance floors faintly comes to mind. and lastly rounding out with fine experimental ender thunder ...mayday

next up on aus music is the welcome return of a good friend and label regular - the ever ascendant marquis hawkes. having released 4 eps on aus thus far, he makes his return in the form of a blazing, floor-focused 2 track ep which sits neatly with previous outings on the label. �the basement is burning� takes it�s name from a near-fateful experience stemming from an electrical fire in hawkes� home which culminated in him and his family being evacuated from a 5th floor balcony. having ensured the safety of his family, he made a dash across berlin to make a 10am live show, a few days later with the power back on �the basement is burning� was born. the title track kicks off with splashy, live drum samples that are armoured with electronic layers before a feel-good piano lick glides into the mix. bursting synths are introduced before ducking strings chords bring the track to an ecstatic conclusion. �tower block boogie� then tumbles short funk samples through bold drums as a fervid sense of tension burns throughout.

aus welcome back label favourite shenoda for his third release on the label, burn backed with a remix from juxta position. previous releases on hypercolour & electric minds have seen shenoda firmly on the ascent but its in his recent outings on aus that his bold, rugged club music has really reached its zenith. burn follows suit with its predecessors with its power being rooted in seismic, analogue drums that are balanced against soft, allaying melodies. the muscular vista then rolls out punching stabs and tight, shuffling drums before label mate marquis hawkes dusts off his juxta position alias and delivers a pacey and forthright take on burn. melodies are softly mangled and given a spectral quality that recalls his mazury on dvs1�s mistress wrapping another solid addition to the catalogue as the aus music family continue to deliver the goods.
