diamond version ist eine kollaboration zweier innovatoren moderner musik, byetone und alva noto. als führende köpfe des chemnitzer labels raster-noton und mit ihren solo-projekten alva noto (carsten nicolai) und byetone (olaf bender) arbeiten die beiden seit geraumer zeit an der grenze von intuitiver und konzeptueller kunst, einer verbindung zwischen galerie und dancefloor. der zweite teil der ep-serie mit den titeln >science for a better life<, >shift the future< und >forever new frontiers<, in denen das auditive, das visuelle und das sloganhafte unmittelbar miteinander verschränkt ist. an der crispen, synthetischen oberfläche der songs spiegelt sich die brutale realität der slogans und macht deren bedrohlichen dystopischen gehalt - und ihre absurdität - sichtbar.

former model sade, born as helen folesade adu, delivered a sensation with het debut “diamond life”. her delibetately icy and aloof approach, in combination with the jazzy sound and warm voice brought this album to the top of the charts.
this modern soul classic debut was recorded and released in 1984, two years after the english group was formed. diamond life was an instant hit in the uk, peaking at #2 and staying in top ten for more than six months. at the same time they conquered the rest of europe reaching #1 positions in the netherlands, germany, switzerland and austria. in the us, it reached #5 in the charts and the album reached a 4-time platinum status, just like in the uk.
the hit singles “your love is king”, “when am i going to make a living”, “smooth operator” and “hang on to your love” propelled sade s debut album to sell more than 7 million copies worldwide.
exclusive remastered, 180 gram audiophile vinyl pressing.

die fromme geduld hat sich gelohnt - das >gute leben< ist jetzt. auch wenn die im juli erschienene >waiting for the good life< dank gewohnter qualitaet und einem exorbitanten gastkatalog, die dürreperiode ausgesprochen vergnueglich in kurzweilige vergessenheit geraten ließ, hat die neugierde auf den dritten full lenght player des domstadt produzenten-doppels jr & ph7 damit nur noch mehr floriert!

for signal life #03, we teamed up two young vigorous south londoners: mr. louis carnell, known by his moniker visionist, and mr. marco giuliani, who works under the alias last japan. >control this< by visionist combines his background in south london grime with his signature drum machine template and lo-fi vocal excerpts into a coherent mesh. our favourite visionist track to date! when we first heard >storm trooper< by last japan, it was the tension we got caught up in. the song is focused with a clear direction, uncommon in most young talent, armed with a driving snare-fill rhythm reminiscent of south rap and all that exiting stuff in the 160 bpm. i believe murky is the correct term. we predict interesting things for mr. giuliani.

having spent more than seventeen cross-genre years featuring on dance musics most prestigious imprints, blu mar ten are opening the doors of their own label to a host of fresh young talent emerging from the leftfield of drum & bass. blu mar ten music (bmtm) is a home for the beautiful and the ugly, the elegant and the awkward, the euphoric and the melancholy. with a list of talent already lined up to deliver a rollercoaster of emotions and a desire to stand out rather than fit in bmtm is guaranteed to be a label to watch. the second release in this new chapter comes courtesy of multi-genre wizard, eleven8. having shone his talent on a number of quality labels including hospital records sister-label med school, eleven8 joins bmtm to showcase his drum & bass stripes with two tracks strictly designed for intrepid explorers.

moody yet not morbid, futuristic but not foreign, modern but not without class.

the land of oz has such a thriving scene at the minute: francis inferno orchestra, tornado wallace, andy hart and the future classic guys all having huge success – as well as every dj and his dog popping up on australias festival and club circuit. it is the place to be seen and heard. and we are very proud to have a slice of that pie in the form of andras fox.

garibovic is one of the hotest new starz shooting for a well deserved succes. his new ep is mostly a mixture of nudisco and electronic beats that are glued together quite nicely. even better, garibovic seems great at picking not only the hottest, but best remixers around.

the deeper sister to tic tac toe, connect four is back with a new ep from german producer dub taylor aka tigerskin aka alex krüger. he has been crafting away in this warm, deep house realm for years under a number of different aliases, always weaving plenty of liquid grooves with a steady house pulse. the two original tracks served up here continue in that fine tradition.

after releasing >inside< with nomi ruiz in 2009, germany hot producer rampa, is back on rebirth with another strong vocal track! this time the result of the sinergy with his fellow producer re.you! the virtually indestructible rave banger >work< on rampas label keinemusik established them as club hits machine, followed by productions on labels like cocoon, souvenir, gigolo and a remix for michel cleis worldwide floorfiller >la mezcla< on strictly rhythm plus diverse co-productions with tiefschwarz feat. dop, ruede hagelstein and others. their live-project is also irresistible, covering a spectrum between elegant deepness and unrestrained mayhem, without ever losing the sight of the peaktime fever curve.
>my life< featuring the vocals of meggy is a modern soulful number, with warm sounds and effective beats ... a very cool deep summer little anthem. on the remix front till von sein and tigerskin get in the studio to produce a strong house reinterpretation, keeping the original elements and adding a fierce bass line! kingston based menik proves to be a name to watch, exploring different worlds, and delivering something fresh and forward thinking!

the second in the series of 12 inch samplers featuring present and future classics from brooklyns monthly party, life, spring sampler 2012 #2 picks up where the first installment left off, deeper into the rabbits hole of the all-night underground parties at the infamous dope jams. curators and residents slow to speak offer here 3 remixes and re-imaginings of some of the finest technoid sleaze, haunted vocal anthemics and zulu-nation-endorsed hip-house perfection. spring sampler 2012 #2 is a snapshot of a life party at its most elevated, after the initiation and immersion is complete, the core party people convened, the sacramental beverages consumed and the full peak of the party unfolded in its full spectacle. previously, these exclusive versions have remained in the vault for protected and exclusive use by the life residents. made available through these limited samplers, slow to speak opens up for a rare snapshot into the heart and soul of their program—militant musical theses that drive these parties and make them something more special than the typical dance music burial rite.

after a busy 2011, nicholas slowed down the pace of production in 2012. here the italian producer returns with a new single for 4lux and what a banger it is! title track life goes on is a great club tune with uplifting bass, beats, rhodes and cut up vocal bits. ny stomp comes with a killer remix in the vein of the famous ny house trak: hard hitting old school beats and tough groove. on the flip two deeper but equally good nuggets in all i can give and messed up generation. some of nicholas best work to date!

a time machine appeared to us recently in a cloud of smoke and a giant portal of light. out of the portal a smoking piece of futuristic metal emerged and fell onto our floor. closer examination revealed it to be a time capsule sent from the future. a message from the year 2043, it contained diagrams of futuristic machines from what looks to have been the studio sessions of the recordings presented here. here is what we found, a 2 track ep (plus remixes) from artists from the future. recordings made 21 years from now but from artists who you may have already heard of today.

detroit house at its best. amazing high tech jazz influenced 4 tracker by orlando b. after hearing orlando bs 2 full eps on germanys yore records, ric mcclelland & sean grieve head hunted the scottish producer for their seven music label. orlandos first outting on the belfast imprint was at the start of 2012 with a remix of giorgio luceris >one more time<. not content with just a remix, seven music asked orlando for some original works and here we have the >city life ep<. 4 tracks of chicago and detroit inspired goodness! the scottish producer and dj started making music at the age of 15 using an atari and notator sl. inspired by artists such as jeff mills, the advent, dave clarke and ian pooley, orlando began his career making techno. fast forward to 2012, orlandos studio is predominantly analogue based and his sounds have progressed to a deeper and more retrospective house sound. with 4 original tracks (1 of which is exclusive to the 12inch vinyl) the >city life ep< is arguably orlandos finest work to date. timeless yet forward thinking electronic music with soul and a record that deserves a place in any discerning djs collection!

double 12inch comprising seven of the original tracks re-mastered.

36 hours in. the lights are flickering and the sweat is pouring out of you like the thoughts that you re trying to write down, to get down the words, to put down the message, to translate all the ideas that keep appearing in your head. ideas like uninvited guests that keep showing up and refusing to leave. somewhere though, there s a truth in there. you know it because you saw it. you know it because you felt it. because when you knew that even though there were ten million reasons why you should go to bed now, why you should go to bed straight away. that you should put these silly things down and stop trying to create and just get some sleep already. that you should stop trying to wrestle the ideas in your subconscious down to the ground so you can actually capture and express them to others. but you persist.

cutterz choice get back amongst it with a new release from rhythm beater. the label has been dropping beats since 2003 and in that time has earned a strong fan base, featuring artists such as benny page and ed solo. release 19 is by no means a let up, one that will make all the heads nod.
