MEGACITY SERVANT EP
12 Inch
19.09.16
channeling the energy echoing off dancefloors along his path, reinier zonneveld has been on a steady slope rolling out dance igniting productions while touring an intricate live set. megacity servant, the artist’s third studio effort, stands as a coherent 16-piece techno outfit tinged with experimental tones while playfully deconstructing classic acid and disco fragments. coming from a classical music background, reiniers style of production ranges from cavernous powertracks to more concise trips subdued with melancholic piano-stemmed soundscapes, rounding up to a signature sound that is evident as it is enveloping. techno mainstay vocalist cari golden makes a notable appearance on things we might have said. having previously teamed up with sonorous names like pan pot, fur coat & coyu, goldens stellar vocals and skillful lyrics shine paired with zonneveld’s production prowess. the production-vox chemistry is instant, as the track mesmerizes from the get go. seizing attention for the full length of the track, the entire arrangement seduces the listener, making for a clamorous earworm. eht unveils a heavy-hitting resolution, as the artist layers on hefty polarizing synths. the cut boasts a powerful arrangement that is unsettling and playful at the same time, diving into dark techno realms. megacity servant makes use of the classic roland sh-101s ability to emit a nearly tridimensional sound ray, unfolding newer details with each listen. the relentless melody, padded with grave synth arrays, establishes a melancholic mood, gradually depicting the auditive struggle of its title-named character.

recovering from the gray decay of the winter here in berlin, we are more than ready to push forward farther into the future. in order to do so the powers at chronicle have aligned a new musical offering to test the palate of those who know, and those who care. we are pleased to present six tracks from the prolific arnaud le texier, who has made waves for years with his children of tomorrow imprint and renowned taste. from cosmic interludes to heavy hitting transcendence, arnaud manages to showcase all sides of his production skills as they translate into a compelling and emotive narrative. among them stands a tribute to one who was lost along the way that we simply do not want to forget. only rarely in this life do we stand witness to gures that make a true impression, an imprint that continues to leave a mark long after the original has passed. max_m was one of these gures, and it is through his music and immensely dignified curatorial prowess that his legacy will live on. arnaud’s poignant tribute stands as a personal note amongst an ep full of forceful techno suitable for deep space exploration

mysterious brooklyn label and production crew getting in the game with some techno and ebm bangers. all are re-workings of recognizable or obscure classics. “looping blood” the clubbiest of the ep builds around a controlled bleeding loop and blossoms into a spiraling unstoppable groove accented by crashing reverbs and jackin drums. “alaaarmed” is a pounding re-edit of tommi stumpff, early german minimal punk not unlike nitzer ebb. “take two” is a great remix of front 242’s epic industrial classic “take one” dubbing out the lyrics for an instrumental approach. “open bar” puts the scissors to skinny puppy’s early 80s classic “last call” looks like the aptly named effective weapns label certainly providing some hot jams for this fall. fans of dark entires, minimal wave take notice

is it heavy industrial machinery or the loud noise of a tropical jungle? do we hear a swarm of exotic insects over our heads or the sound of permanent construction overshadowed by sky-scraping cranes? this is los muchachos, the latest release of sano, from medellin, colombia. a strangely swinging 12inch with 2 heavy stomping downtempo tracks for those who know and those who want to learn - plus a mesmerizing interview – remix produced by toulouse, salon des amateurs resident and member of kreidler. los muchachos is a house music short story – both tropical and industrial – about adolescence in medellin, about kids selling their cd-rs at undocumented raves, about drawing flyers and stealing 16.09.2016 kisses, testing substances and kicking stones, about bedroom production, about dance and more dreams and adventures of los muchachos - the kids
SPEAK TO ME (LP)
12 Inch LP
16.09.16
beginning from the abstractions of their self-titled debut release in 2004, the group embarked on a trajectory that saw them move toward near-song structures, tricoli’s voice becoming a dominant element amid an increasingly dense and layered production style. on speak to me, however, the listener feels confronted by the ghost of music, sonic memories echoing across a psychedelic expanse. evacuated of any clear structure, the music becomes a reverb-saturated morass, from which crystalline details momentarily emerge: shimmering echoed guitar, bowed double bass, tactile hand percussion, skittering electronics. suffused with a darkly pensive atmosphere, speak to me is an elegant summation of the distinctive blend of electroacoustic techniques, instrumental improvisation and contemporary psychedelia pioneered by 3/4hadbeeneliminated over the last decade

12 Inch
14.09.16
paradise garage anthem “let’s do it” by convertion with remixes by krystal klear to be released on original sam records label. 12” vinyl released on september 9, 2016 let’s do it by convertion was originally released in 1981 on sam records, and featured production by greg carmichael and vocals by leroy burgess. upon release this song immediately went into heavy rotation for larry levan at the paradise garage and for frankie crocker, then the number one rated disco jockey on new york city’s number 1 ranked radio station wbls. over the years it has become a staple of classic disco playlists worldwide. now remixed as a peak hour tune for today’s dancefloor, this 12” release includes two mixes produced by dec lennon p/k/a/ krystal klear. a dublin native and red bull music academy alumni, klear has made a steady rise to become one of the freshest new faces in music that both has the chops to destroy underground dance floors with his deep crate of records or spin out polished productions in the studio with legends like nile rodgers. klear’s musical accolades can be conveyed through his singles “tried for your love” that was championed by bbc r1 dj benji b for 13 weeks in a row, and “addiction” which has helped solidify main stage at top tier events such as sonar, fabric, space ibiza, and the famed panorama bar.
NIGHTCRAWLER (SAM & SUBB-AN REMIXES)
12 Inch
14.09.16
the lost in time imprint has been releasing bespoke vinyl for a couple of years now. it got off to a flying start with the moment from ralph lawson & chez damier and kept up the pace with a series of releases from ralph lawson alongside production partner tuccillo including nightcrawler. the track has now been picked up and remixed by denmark’s finest house music export from oscillat and delaphine records, s.a.m and one records subb-an. s.a.m is fast becoming one of the very best producers of house and dub techno with a string of highly sought after releases on delaphine that sell out quickly and attract heat on discogs. s.a.m manages to fuse classic craftsmanship with contemporary sounds and has created an epic and atmospheric 10 minute long re-shape for ‘nightcrawler’. subb-an needs little introduction as a producer with high integrity and impeccable taste. he’s graced the decks at panorama bar, fabric, detroit movement, womb tokyo, enter, dc10, d’edge and of course the legendary below parties. while hes always been busy in the studio with releases for spectral, crosstown rebels and 2020vision. subb-an strips down nightcrawler to its very bones drawing out the classic analogue kurzweil 2000 synth sound to great effect. another chapter in the lost in time series.

Lost In Time
TO THE CORE

13.09.16
nothing lasts but nothing is lost – terence mckenna first solo ep by zanias after her keluar and linea aspera projects. this evolution culminates in a mature but radical project. radicalism has never relied completely on the means to deliver it. it also requires a relationship to society, to culture, at any given time. a solid background must be included in the formula as well. once certain stability is reached, there is no other way more than taking additional risks in order to produce new work of interest. finding different mechanisms to corrupt the methodical linearity that underlies artistic production. corrupting means finding possibilities to create an accident, possibilities to contradict, to prove anomalies within the frame of reference of that new thought is actually possible.

nice price deal !!! meteorythm recordings is back with a new file, mf002 geometry of the mind ep by imprint’s co-founder, clearvision. to start, the a side about uncertainty (and unity)’ leaves you doubtful, in a disoriented feeling of expectation. perfect to start your set or a personal journey inward, this ambient track allows you to create your own thinking pattern about what will follow. the a2 ‘geometry of the mind,’ an atmospheric and melancholic track, conveys clearvision’s thought processes by playing with floating pads on deep bass frequencies. on the b side, ‘wave function’ is the logical continuation of the two last tracks, concentrating on rhythm in order to be more focused on the body than the mind. to conclude, the berlin based duet arcarsenal followed suit, evolving ‘wave function to another level of groove by adding a beautiful percussions harmony to a perfectly rearranged production. after developing their musical personality on imprints such as underground quality, finest hour, rue de plaisance, finale session and of course their own bass cadet records, the duo perfectly found how to combine their own style with the space atmosphere that surrounds meteorythm.

sébastien léger delivers two solid originals and is backed up by arjuna schiks’ trippy dreamy remix. oracle has a french house sound to it characteristic of léger with a moroderesque arpeggio bassline. his excellent production skills shine brightest when he plays the keys in the second break. trytosphere is a somewhat new direction for the frenchman, a sunny track with a balearic feel to it. a real summer soundtrack. arjuna schiks adds a trippy take on the original with a nice upbeat energetic groove layered on top of a spacey bell and synth soundscape which echoes in the background.

GALEGOS BAR / THE RITUAL
12 Inch
29.08.16
what ever not is the variegated music outlet from experienced dodi palese and dan mela, italian djs and producers supporting, selling, playing and releasing instrumental and dance music for two decades. what ever not tenth record, ‘galegos bar / the ritual’, sees a split release signed by dan mela and marco erroi. label co-founder dan mela inaugurates a new moniker ‘man dela’ for ‘the ritual’ - the original track gets remixed by anton zap, with whom mela already collaborated for a digital release on his own ethereal sound. flipping on the other side, marco erroi, head of common series ltd, continues his production career with ‘xxxv gold fingers’ for the ‘galegos bar’ side – one of the many different aliases he personifies - also contributing by realizing the artwork. ‘galegos bar / the ritual’ offers two sides of the same coin and we can have both things with one stroke. the common denominator is the ethnical ritual. it is fully expressed in the man dela side with deep and hypnotic ride out turned upside down by anton zap with a dynamic electronic waltz. the same item, however, is magically hidden in the xxxv gold fingers side, where we can find it in the form of drink beer and play cards just like in most terrible bars in south of italy.
RAN BARAN
12 Inch
29.08.16
fideles is the joint moniker of italian duo daniele aprile and mario roberti, who have carved out a niche for their distinctive brand of deep, techy house on noted labels such as defected, be as one, and marco resmann’s upon you, among others. here on their first outing for poker flat recordings, the duo cook up four courses of lean, focussed tech-house for steve bug’s seminal imprint. ‘detuned’ starts the journey - an edgy, tense groove exhibiting the boy’s masterful sound design and use of space to create a thick, intoxicated atmosphere. ‘i’m rude’ is more direct - a thumping bass drum introduces a low slung bass groove, slowly evolving and mutating into a true party-starter. ‘worthy’ uses similar building blocks but delivers a different vibe altogether, revelling in a minimalist production aesthetic and cheeky bass riff. ‘ran baran’, the title track, is another lesson in great production - each element perfectly balanced to create an atmosphere of controlled mayhem - which is exactly the response this entire ep aims to instigate on dancefloors.

FOREVER NEVER
12 Inch
11.08.16
resplendent in its simplicity, forever is the sound of emika boiled down to her steely essence. gated vocal snippets and haunting synth arpeggios give a nod to early-90s proto-trance, the arps filtering in and out of focus in tense fashion before unfolding into a dreamy melodic progression ‘never’ treads similar ground but takes a more direct approach, the tension building consistently in layers as more arpeggiated synths gently modulate in hypnotic fashion shimmering, icy sounds create a haunting, slow-burning atmosphere before the rhythm switches up for the latter half of the track, layers of gated white noise further punctuating the groove. emika deftly utilises each element for maximum effect, allowing each to breathe and shine by way of slick production and clever arrangement.

GEMINI PT.1
12 Inch
10.08.16
nice price deal !!! from the beginning, oktored has tried to keep himself away from the pigeonholing nature of the electronic dance scene. seamlessly blending early rave sounds with futuristic beats and melodies, he has really been coming into his own lately. from a young age, he has been into a multitude of different genres of music ranging from ambient to death metal. the next two releases will show just that. the first of which will be the more passive side of oktored.gemini 1 (or the good side) really brings together a feeling of old detroit style techno/house with some new moombahton flavour. the fact that he has been motivated by so many different styles and sounds becomes very apparent on tracks like relax and inéz, while he brings some real deep, future bass styling on the drifter. for fans of future sounds of 8 mile, this release will be a fantastic follow up ep. but that is only one side of our gemini friend. the follow up release, gemini 2 will showcase his darker, more aggressive side. delving into rough, uninhibited bass and beat tracks, oktored will begin to show just how deep his production can go

danny wolfers is stuck in a groove right now, a hugely prolific production groove which has him tossing out new material on a seemingly weekly basis for all manner of labels.
hot on the heels of that nacho patrol 12” for simonetti and a under the cover album for blue moon safari comes this this three track debut for the equally relentless unknown to the unknown label.
the star gazing ep makes for a wondrous display of legowelt’s talent for implementing those trademark melodies within various rhythmic frameworks, in the case of stand out track “visions in my mind”, it’s a hypnotic disco jacker lent no small degree of melancholy by the titular vocal.

DIXIES DUBB (ARGY REMIX)
12 Inch
08.08.16
the swedish label is back with a three tracker valvet studios production, featuring per hammars sound of dusty dub house. dixies dubb is a straight forward and warm cut with a good amount of chamber-sounding ingredients. argys take on the track is a timeless piece of dubby, stripped and sparkling techno. just as obvious as it is venturous. as the last track on the flip, we find severnaja, that takes us on a mission over an icy surface. the travelling bassline and overheated drums in symbiosis with the melody brings the listener to uninhabited places.
limited edition of 300 copies, hand numbered.
“danse ep” is the first extended play of the german band bleib modern whom have surprised last year with one the best cold wave albums of the european scene, “all is fair in love and war”. 4 tracks have been remixed / re recorded specially with a “danse” approach for this magical release. the evocative guitar lines among crude but very seductive vocals plus an excellent production transports the listener immediately to an altered state of mind. the sound of the band can be perfectly compared to any of the all time big names of the cold wave and post punk.
