am 7. juni 2018 hätte er seinen 60. geburtstag gefeiert: prince. vor zwei jahren musste die musikwelt abschied von dem legendären sänger, komponisten, songwriter und multiinstrumentalisten nehmen. mit »piano & a microphone 1983« gibt es jetzt ein weiteres seltenes zeugnis seines kreativen schaffens, eine homestudio-aufnahme mit vielen spannenden frühen versionen und nie veröffentlichten tracks.

das album spiegelt die vielseitigkeit im musikalischen universums dirty doerings wieder das nicht nur aus einer gerade 4/4- bassdrum, sondern auch aus gebrochenen beats, hip hop, jazz, weltmusik, gitarren, klavier, klassischen elemente und vielem mehr besteht. es überrascht uns mit sounds, wie zum beispiel die downtempo-stücke timeless, &#769,,,,luisa way und monday only. zusammen mit den clubbigeren tracks wie black forest, &#769,,,,burning ham oder high level road und purple disco entsteht ein spannungsbogen, der einen unwiderstehlich in den bann zieht.

das werk, über die vergangenen zwei jahre in chromeos studio in los angeles aufgenommen, ist das bisher gemeinschaftlichste der band. es schlägt brücken zwischen den generationen und sub-genres, wie nur die funklordz sie schlagen konnten, so leihen dem album the-dream, stefflon don, french montana, amber mark und weitere ihre stimme, dazu kommen musikalische beiträge von neo-soul-legende raphael saadiq, 2000er-r&b-mastermind rodney jerkins, d angelos kreativpartner pino palladino, dem new yorker onyx collective, mitgliedern von mtume und toto und niemand geringeren als dram auf dem album opener »must’ve been«.

sven atterton‘s much anticipated follow up to ‘the cove’, thematically named ‘the cape’, drops on his newly formed cruise club records. anyone that’s experienced the wonder of sven live, is well aware of the prowess and apparent effortlessness he possesses on stage. as at home laying it down on a synth, as he is tearing it up on the bass, ‘the cape’ showcases modern synth boogie as good as anyone at present.
‘taboo’, one of many highlights, demonstrates both sven’s skills as a multi-instrumentalist and as an accomplished producer. flexing those 80’s linndrum hits, getting spiritual on the keys, whilst layering that full frontal bass and dreamy pads – it’s a nod to the past, whilst re-imagining it for the modern age. and considering the cost sven’s debut album now goes for on discogs, ‘the cape’ is one to snap up on sight.

fruit merchant is back. this time offering up some fresh talent in the form of ‘native cruise’. with one previous release under his belt this year on yam 004 va, this marks stoke on trent’s finest first full length foray onto wax.

limited edition of 2000 copies on transparent blue 180 gram vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve. the electronic music duo groove armada released their fourth album “lovebox” in 2002. the album includes some of their best tracks, ramping through genres from rock ’n’ roll to the psychedelica and ska. it also features collaborations with artists like neneh cherry and richie havens, who ads some soulful voices to the whole. opener “purple haze” introduces us to a giant guitar riff and highlight “madder” takes the groove out of the clash’s “magnificent seven”, before moving on to the raps by m.a.d. they’re incorporating a lot of samples in the fine structured melodies of soul/funk/rock and hip-hop. after playing at club nights for years andy cato and tom findlay joined forces and created their debut album northern star and breakthrough hit “at the river”. it was the start of a collaboration that brought them hits like “my friend” and “superstylin’”.

the „here & now ep” is the second instalment of a three-ep-series coming up in 2018. christophe salin is taking us on his musical journey and paves the way for cooperation with future artists on his very own imprint „salin records” that he runs with his wife daria salin as a platform for electronic music and art.

no intro needed as „dreams sometimes come true” instantly takes us on the groove line. „astra perle” keeps the groove alive with some heavy jazz samples. you maybe remember sitting in your first car (christophe’s first car was named „purple pearl” and was an „opel astra “) and just cruising thru the city. imagine to be suddenly overwhelmed by a creative hole, „ohh no, not you “… turn over to „can you pay my bills” the journey continues with more jazzy vibes to end up with a downtempo lounge-dub-work which is indeed „different but sweet“.

if there is one album that we would take with us an a desert island its this one. the worst of krtm is one of the most refreshing records we have heard in a long time. perfectly blending industrial techno and hardcore to one unique beautiful/terrifying work of art. we could almost write a book on how unique and great this album is but lets just stop here and let the music do the talking. all hail krtm!

the new label instereo recordings comes courtesy of dj dan, a us heavyweight who has been in the game since the 90s. while instereo has existed in digital form for some time, this new incarnation of the label brings dans full-fat sound to vinyl, and it kicks off in style with an instantly recognisable, purple tinted edit of a perennial dancefloor funk classic entitled squissh. this is an unreservedly big room record, as in your area also ably demonstrates with its immaculately produced hooks and punchy rhythm section. dan teams up with ido on that sound, whipping up a disco-funk influenced frenzy, and then he tackles scotty boy s silky smooth hey mr dj and turns it into a peak time belter.

stone temple pilots haben ihr selbstbetiteltes und mit spannung erwartetes, neues album stone temple pilots angekündigt. es ist das erste stp-album, das mit dem neuen lead-sänger jeff gutt aufgenommen wurde!
als eine der bestverkaufenden bands der 1990er jahre, die mit mehreren platinauszeichnungen und einem grammy bedacht wurde, blicken die stone temple pilots jedoch nicht zurück, sondern nur nach vorn. gitarrist dean de leo erklärt: »wir sind gespannt und freuen uns auf das, was vor uns liegt. für uns ist der beste weg, unserer vergangenheit gerecht zu werden, indem wir darauf aufbauen und weiterhin neue musik schreiben.«
genau dies machen sie auf dem neuling stone temple pilots. die erste single meadow und never enough präsentieren beherzt knirschende gitarren und treibende rhythmen, die seit ihren frühen alben core (1992), purple (1994) und no. 4 (1999) die markenzeichen der stone temple pilots sind.

memory disks. volume one. chevron. the blackpool born sorcerer is conjuring up spellbinding tracks that boil and bubble between supernatural rave, occult acid and inverted techno. dripping from speakers, a concoction of swirling chords simmer as a spiced shower of razor edged rhythms are poured into the pot. shadowy notes ghost like phantoms behind crunching beats, beastly bars growl as keys slide and slither between nine short, medium and long excursions into the glow-stick festooned musical mind of jonathan valentine. nestled amongst the bewitching synthesizer psychedelia, peering from behind the purple forests and white dwarf frogs, are less frenetic works, a soft balance to the frenzied chicanery and chrome plated magic. simply put, a weird and wonderful ep where the only stable point, the only spot of secured safety, is the needle on the record.

originally released in ‘06/’07 as the appetizer to only built 4 cuban linx ii, the vatican mixtape series consists of a vast collection of unreleased tracks, wu & solo classics (“shame on a ni**a”, “diesel”, “ghetto boy”, & “yae-yo”), as well as some of rae’s best guest work through the years (“the heist”, “brown paper bag”, & “bump bump”). volume 1 features verses from busta rhymes, roc marciano, nas, & several wu-tang brethren including rza, ghostface killah, method man, & ol’ dirty bastard. special guest production contributed by large professor, pete rock, madlib & scram jones. tying everything together is dj riddler, who weaves several skits & blends throughout, giving it that official mixtape sound. this 2xlp is the first time this volume and series gets pressed to wax, and features completely new artwork for a fresh look.

after the sublime triple 12inch re-issue of the sonar bases 4-10 album on deeptrax records, it s now time for the second installment in the sonar base transmissions series: the album dark matter . all 6 tracks were produced by frank de groodt around 2004/2005 and were only released in the inner circle, never released on vinyl. this mini lp still sounds as fresh as it was produced 13 years ago, experimental on the drums and synths. when listening to sonic discharge and velvet sky of sonar 6 , the link with drexciya is easily made. sonar base takes you further into outer space territory with the dark sounds of polygone suffering and the title track dark matter there is the clear idm feel of tracks like meet you at tower 3 on sonar 7 . dark matter is a hypothetical type of matter distinct from baryonic matter (ordinary matter such as protons and neutrons), neutrinos and dark energy. dark matter has never been directly observed, however, its existence would explain a number of otherwise puzzling astronomical observations the mini lp is limited to 400 black versions and 100 on limited edition purple marbled vinyl, pressed by deepgrooves and fully remastered by thee j johanz. you know the drill!!

this is an exploded drawing, unlocked from time: nhk yx koyxen walks at any speed and on any surface he desires to trance-scend. his “parallel tempo ep” takes a mindful plunge into layers of rigorously murmuring gestures. as speed and size are streched and bent, the planes engage in parallel movement. artist and producer nhk yx koyxen has been unveiling his unique vocabulary through a continuous stream of sound for many years. performing on electronic music’s timeless dna, he offers those who step in a resonating space, in which loose objects are bound to embrace each other.
