lobster theremin launch their first sublabel proper, heralding a darker, murkier and deeper sound on their newly minted mörk imprint. retaining its mother labels passion for championing newcomers, mörk launches with a debut release from young netherlandic producer nthng. cultivating a sound that sits somewhere between prince of denmark and early claro intelecto with splashes of clone influence, nthngs stripped-back techno walks fuzzy, shrouded paths through nolstagic moments in time. at times almost drowning, his engulfing sound is a raw reminder of the power of subtlety and the use of meditative looping along with a rough-around-the-edges production style has led to an incredibly moving debut work.

following the success of factors compilations chandelier and lawson graham, the beatsmith embarked on a concept record in the vein of a prince among thieves and wound up with the melodic, complex symphony of woke up alone, mixed by factor himself at his home studio and featuring roles played by ceschi, open mike eagle, onry ozzborn, myka 9 and astronautalis. factors relatable allegory, scored by swirling synths, samples and live instrumentation, extends well beyond necromancy, as multitudes upon multitudes have gazed haphazardly in the rear view mirror and tried to resuscitate that which is irreparably gone.

jackson & his computerband entstand im dunstkreis der letzten disco-funken der french-house-bewegung, aus dem auch daft punk und phoenix entsprangen. jackson zerlegte den filter-house seiner vorgänger und vermischte orchestralen bombast, techno und gothic-hiphop zu einer eigenwilligen mixtur, die einen hauch von post-millennium-barock in den rave zurückbrachte. doch im gegensatz zu daft punk und phoenix verschwand jackson danach in der versenkung, um nun endlich - als neuberliner - den langerwarteten nachfolger abzuliefern. *glow* ist ein lustspiel aus musikalischen obsessionen und furiosem vergnügen, das nur jemand erzeugen kann, der mit hardcore-techno sozialisiert wurde, aber im laufe seiner entwicklung zeitlosen pop und den unklassifizierbaren funk eines prince lieben lernte.
