dva started off hyperdubs barrage of albums in 2012 with his brilliant >pretty ugly<, and now closes the the year with the >fly juice< eps bumper selection of machine tooled tracks, each created for optimum dancefloor damage and road tested by dva, kode9 and a select bunch of djs. these tracks are a brilliant example of what he has been describing as power house for a while, a colourful chunky techno sound that switches up every 8 bars like grime and has plenty of shuffle and offbeat swing as a counterpoint to the 4/4 drums.

two power cuts that melt classicist chicago school of design elements with a post-industrial take

our two french techno masterminds lowkey & kardinal are back together with two brand new strong powertracks for afulab ! their following is ever growing and they surely defined their own techno style with the more than power and tension fueled creations

machines state polymers is back with another ferocious mixture of techno-filtered, house power! lucretio, one half of the analogue cops, co-founding member of restoration records and a judicious supporter of the vinyl format, gives us his third release for the label and furthers his explorations into the relationship between machines and sounds.

continuing in a strong and revitalised form that has seen widespread recognition for releases from synkro, troy gunner, szare and stickman, mindset records return with a debut 12 inch for longtime friend of the label, elsewhere. hailing from the same rural locale as sometime production partner stickman, elsewheres infinitely technical productions bear the hallmarks of a studio obsessive, with production values of a higher level helping to deliver three tracks of a unique quality. with productions informed partly by seminal trips to london to stand in front of dmz soundsytems, elsewhere reworks the dystopian dread and power of that sound into something entirely new, with lead track trippin already finding its way into the record bags of akkord, lone, troy gunner and more. bott bott displays intense dynamics with a smartly deployed vocal and a ruthless subbass underpinning a ferocious uk funky influenced drumtrack whilst the espers comes with alternating slices of rude ukg swagger and some subtle atmospheric work.

sunwalkers is the b-side project of rks, thats what happens when the power of the beats meets the light of the synths. a raw mix of miscellaneous pad and analogue drums that start with a tribute, a detroit reminding track, 303 acid bass and a blaze of sweet melodies, like the old school way says. the ride goes on with 2, an easy dancing jam, the piano chords run into an unceasing clap for a massive dirty floor killer. on the b-side terrence parker puts his groovy piano style on a brilliant remix of the light, seven minutes of pure detroit parkers energy with a dreamy heartbreaker bridge.

returning after some time off, two dogs in a house took to a secluded studio in stockholm sweden during spring 2012 to record while on the road. here we have the result of uninhibited access to machines with no time constraints and no distractions from the outside world. this freedom allowed the duo to expand upon their ideas of deconstructing conventional song structure and harnessing the power of what immediately surrounded them in the moment. two full side tracks that will absolutely crush and/or isolate anyone who crosses through the sonic pathway of them. perfect sounds for the apocalyptic world we live in.

badboe is back with the second ep from his upcoming album pump up the funk coming out in the end of 2012. 4 brand new hot funky jams from the funk master himself - all mixed up and road-tested to perfection. following up on the success of his one of those days ep which has topped the breakbeat charts on both digital and physical format.
badboe is one of the key players in the nu funk scene and with this release he is stepping well into the world of ghetto bass and electro vibes, but without loosing the funk and soul that he is so respected and loved for. this release is already getting support from some of the major players in the ghetto funk scene and has been very well received on a recent badboe tour to australia and new zealand.

the man they called brokof was a blazing star in one familys dark history. a player with a wandering heart. the band called brokof follows him into the vastness and gives it a face. they draft a map with songs. singing with beautiful solemn sadness about encounters and fleeting moments of truth. hinting at rage born from the loss that occurs when one moves in life. about what one has to gain when there is nothing expected. when hope has turned to echoes and dust.
these are pop songs purged and reduced to the core.every sound stands alone to serve the song. there are no tricks. through their naked vulnerability they find their power. the structure is stark and the messages clear.

fur coat explore the power of thought in their first album for crosstown rebels mind over matter after a steep climb into mainstream consciousness.

studio bounces between deep techno and tech-house, taking us into a world of slight movement, resembling some of the typical detroit sound elements. fanon flowers adds the american touch, adding more power and energy to the modulation pads. >analogic swing< by pelacha is a dryer composition, driven by a constant string, pure dance-floor techno.

jonathan boulet liefert mit seinem zweiten album auf australiens bestem indielabel modular einen energiegeladenen ausbruch an melodien und harmonien auf unablaessiger, archaischer rhythmik. hier verschmelzen chorgesaenge, drums auf speed und rhythmische perkussion zu einem bombastischen power-pop, der an die besten tagen von julian cope und the teardrop explodes erinnert.

after the trippy translations of the helium robot space trip called jarza, theo parrishs second and very welcomed visit to running back is all new material - almost. black mist in its extended version is just that: an extended take of the already released version on the rare-as-hens-teeth sketches pack. cut on 45, its a hard punch in the gut. techno-not-techno-house-not-house parrish power. previously unreleased and no less persuasive are pop off and wild out. while the first one centers around an endless piano and sucks you into the corny, but magic of repetition, the second one sounds like a theo parrish demo for dance mania after he came back from listening to lil louis at the bismark pavilion. mosh pit music. limited pressing in full printed sleeves.

der garten gardening is better than sport. a garden is a source of freedom and inspiration. it requires care and devotion, it teaches and its full of surprises. a garden is outside and inside. the modern gardening mix by jörg burger (aka modernist) is a hit in the cologne school tradition. the timmed garden is a short version taken from the album gudrun gut - wildlife, which is coming out in october. 2. the best a cover version which on first glance does nt really fit gudrun gut. its no forgotten pearl, rather more a measure of pop-detergent which through the recontextualisation gets a whole new power. a game of deception which could also be a lovesong to a sweetheart. thomas fehlmann has got all sides covered with two cool and chilled out mixes. the first has a relaxed-bitchy percussion groove, the second with complete lyrics and breath

black vinyl repress, natch is the union of the body,mind and passion with drum machines and synthesizers. its what is natural,what we do the best. kidnapped in the 90s by the clubs of detroit, taken by the power of the bass, carried over through a sequencer and convinced that berlin is the new dance floor. natch is techno. it moves through the stimuli and does not stop, pushed by the need to discover new forms,to listen to the unheard,browse unlimited electronic influences. not only from dub to dark sound, but reaching an underground that is an expression of the sounds that each of us carry inside. aware of the history behind each clap, which leads to the highest level of sound, of his idea: techno-logic. natch is the way, natch is natural

in june 2011 subtext recordings was restarted after a six year hiatus for the release of the second lp from emptyset, titled >demiurge<. this album represented a transition from the first two subtext releases, a pair of seminal experimental recordings from the groundbreaking duo vexd, switching path into a new terrain that allowed for the distortion and dissolution of the sequencer grid and shifted the focus of the label from the programmed to the composed.
through this development subtext recordings has evolved into a conversation between emptyset, the ex-vexd artist roly porter, and composer paul jebanasam, who has spearheaded the revival of the label. this new release continues this dialogue by commissioning both porter and jebanasam to respond to the material contained within >demiurge< and develop their own interpretations of the original album.

following up after the mental drop by detroits master of repetition, population one, we have a new signing hailing from the land of the rising sun, helping us to set the standards for this new imprint— uncompromised techno funk! japanese producer imugem orihasam has spent the past 3 years slowly evolving. his early work on ilian tape and esperanza sounds like that of an already seasoned craftsman digesting detroit bit by bit, with a focus on lush textures and swooning eerie melodies. this past year has seen a spike in activity for imugem, with releases on patrice scotts sistrum recordings, berlins nsyde, and adam marshalls new kanada—all showcasing a more focused and exuberant approach that has sharpened his reflective compositions. with gem, imugem steps away from the supple melodies and tranquil atmospheres for a trip deep into the power plant.

samurai horo is pleased to welcome another of our favorite musical sound-scapers to the label as we continue our quest to go deeper. sam kdc has proved himself constantly as a unique individual with the power to craft elegant and emotive layers of sound that take you away to special, often contemplative states. his tunes for horo are multi dimensional and combine subtlety and grace in a blissful package. >between dreams< is the soundtrack to exactly that, transporting you slowly from one to the next, while >downpour< adds a touch of shade to the dream. aural drifting, velvet like states, your forgotten dreams now have a soundtrack…

nina simone was one of the best blues singers of the 20th century. only someone the likes of billie holiday and bessie smith had the power to lay a soul bare like she could, as her stripped-down be my husband shows. naked like a field-holler, this song would later capture the imagination of jeff buckley and antony hegarty. nina simone never, ever disappoints.

in italys deepest south, where summer sun is harsh and burns you at midday, sweat is real. you can smell, taste and feel it. it s cold sweat. from constant fear, that haunts people in the dusty streets like shadows. some say, its only paranoia. but you can t deny the kidnappings, the stick-ups and the killings. police is doomed to watch, hands cuffed, since the power lays in the hands of others. who are they? they are invisible. you can only see the bloodshed and the tears. and like everywhere else in the world: violence is always calling for more violence. this is the life of jack curtu. and his music takes you there. three slices, each unique in style, yet united by human rage, misery and desperation. senza via duscita - theres no way out! lux rec knows.
