the ep -a form of travel unknown to humans- is chasing us. guiding and forcing a way simultaneously. the sound is harsh but has an immaculate precision to it �void of air- compelling the listener toward a light, seducing us to tear through the night. we enter with �s.m.o.d. � sticks- a deep and magnetic sound opening up slowly, starting to breathe and to merge into -s.m.o.d. � cell culture- which gives a much more metallic flavour but never the less beat driven � fast and strident- maybe even hasty, pushing to skip a beat of the heart. to finish off with -s.m.o.d � pulse- carrying an unsettling almost disturbing quality, formulating a mechanical sound alienated from the human experience. the ep creates a seductive space outside our comfort zone, inviting to explore a space and travel unknown to humans. gimme more.

word of advice to funk lovers, there is not a minute to lose. get on board of the big hustle�s spaceship. before we take off, let s do a little history. the band was founded in 2014 by bass player and composer sébastien levanneur and its aim is to bring together 70 s old school funk with the hippest actual sound laced with influences spanning from steely dan and headhunters, to snarky puppy and soulive. with mighty horn players, a rock and funky rhythm section, the big hustle s music has a very large variety of soundscapes. the first destination takes us to the washington, d.c. area with �turn up�. the groove is clearly go-go music flavored with the trademark sound of cowbells and of course it reminds us of zapp by the use of the talk box on lead vocals, performed here by saad el garrab. and don t miss out shaun martin (snarky puppy, erykah badu, kirk franklin amongst others) as a very special guest performing the talk box solo! second stop is �a curse, a blessing�. it�s an instrumental very much in the freddie hubbard vein during his cti years. the last leg of the a side ends with an instrumental interlude titled �flying donut�. double tribute to jay dee and flying lotus, the music is a simple hip hop loop based on samples. the b side takes us back into the past with two brilliant covers, involving rod temperton the late great british songwriter who scored some of michael jackson s biggest hits. now the idea for this b side is to do the opposite approach from the a side. taking 70 s and 80 s original music and make them travel into time to 2018. we first land with a heatwave song named �the star of a story� from their 1976 central heating album. track 2 is a herbie hancock song named �gettin to the good part� from his 1982 lite me up lp. this time traveler ep journey ends with an interlude. called �gimme dat�, the song deals with the need of new music, new sound. again, this blend of deep rooted funk laced with a contemporary edge is to be consumed without moderation. and do not forget that e.p. also stands for extended pleasure.

trave is a play on words that mixes the concepts >trance< and >rave< to create a new term which essence is the union of filosofies of the words that create the term. trance and rave go by unwritren precepts that prevail in interpersonal relations and in the own purpose of the actions taken place by its flags: peace, respect, freedom and unity. this is exactly what regal tries to expose with his music.

decadent yet depraved, the debut album by belief defect, finds shelter and complicity in raster as home and label. familiar with the underground music scene and how its skeptical nature can also be an obstacle to overcome, belief defect abandon any claim or credit in an attempt to transcend the limits authorship imposes, avoid the boundaries or expectations earned or self imposed and find the clearest, most direct path to their music for themselves and the listener. at the core of the album is the music that inspired them, the conclusion of countless recordings listened to in their formative years that ultimately result in a life-long devotion to electronic music: from dance floor to primal anger and self-annihilating noise, to transcendental, ambient escapism and intense self-reflexive sonic layering. the result is a soundtrack for this apocalyptic time, an uncompromising reflection on the state of mankind and its uncertain future underscored by a sense of religious and secular demise referenced in track titles, samples, and soundscapes scattered throughout the album. yet, more than a political statement decadent yet depraved is an introspective journey, turning each listener into a spiritual soul-seeker staring into the abyss, reaching for some kind of cathartic truthfulness.

awesome!!! collaborative 12 inch vinyl ep from kevin palmer of best available technology and gary james geiler of ovis aurum.

monumental house anthem alert! another classic jammer from 1992 lifted straight from the strictly vaults. this one s huge. phuture aka acid house pioneers spanky and dj pierre (with a little help from roy davis jr) turn in a driving, acidic monster in true wild pitch style. probably the only record that begins with a sinister voice saying this is cocaine speaking before diving head-long into one of the best anti-drug house records ever. absolutely brilliant. bubbling 303 basslines and cavernous handclaps combine with a funked out, dubbed out synth line that just doesn t stop. phuture will survive, and they weren t lying when they said that as this record (among too many others they had a hand in) still rock today. yep, still fresh. tried and tested, often imitated, never bettered. phuture are the originals. open up your eyes (and ears). this one s a tasty 2017 reissue and remaster, featuring all 4 mixes as per the original release way back when. essential stuff here. you simply need this one.

producer and dj from cantabria pablo bolívar signs the new release in his very own seven villas, in which he takes the chance to interpret --remixwise-- the tracks on the album traverse -by sensual physics which was originally released in 7v in 2016.

we are facing a very special project for pablo bolívar this time. his admiration for the veteran german producer joerg schuster -one of pablo s musical heroes- gets highly reflected in each one of the eight revisions which form this traverse (reprise) . what pablo exactly does is to respect the original escapist, dubby and ambient spirit of the original trip proposed by traverse , by means of adding a soft, deep and sophisticated club aura. he turn that the album sensual physics takes into the most characteristic bolívar style is tasteful and subtle, therefore it seems a sequel of the original one. no crashes, no harshness. here everything flows simply in a natural way, especially that ambient-deep and tech fog which just adds a punch in any case. tunes as mondragon , málaga or miracle -among others- acquire a new dimension when touched by pablo bolívar s hands: always looking to their origin with respect to the original producer and the delicacy of a revised piece of work.

cocoon recordings presents cor12146, the dignified follow-up 12inch by rico puestel that we were waiting for so long. cocoon head sven võth himself is dropping caravel for quite some time already and the godfather of german techno smashes floors around the globe with this hot and dirty bombshell. take all of the rocking techno ingredients that you loved so much over the last decade and you get a melt down of dustin zahn, industrial strength soundhack and many more milestones to nameà however puestel created a very unique own style out of all these influences and the result is simply outstanding. sven played the acetate of this so often that we even had to cut a second one. techno-trainspotter worldwide went mad for this one and were killing us with their requests and track-id inquiries. the wait is over guys! caravel and est (on the flipside) are two cutting edge techno monsters that hold enough energy to power your car, your computer, your phone, your lifeàwe cannot imagine what rico will show us next

musically and emotionally, superpitcher�s third full-length studio album, the golden ravedays is a one sound autobiography that exhibits the skill, feeling and style that the artist has honed over a period of twenty years, musically, and forty-plus-years, emotionally. and full-length it is: the golden ravedays is an epic album of 24 tracks that was released in january 2017 and is stretching over 12 respective chapter albums during a one-year period.
the eighth piece of the golden ravedays puzzle will be released on hippie dance in august 2017. number 8 of the series introduces two tracks that will take you to the far side of somewhere you�ve never been before. they are both reminiscent of outer space blues playing spooky games in a dust bowl.

side a features tuesday paris texas a tastefully arranged track with vintage sounds passing nonchalantly through a wild western aural landscape. the music is announced like a cowboy movie dual complete with bar doors swinging on rusty nails in slow motion. mournful guitar strings swirl over a steady horseback galloping beat, expanding into a full-on-fire dance track. halfway through a woman�s haunted voice appears and disappears like an eerie siren, a gunshot is fired (was that a gunshot?), a man whispers �what!?� tuesday paris texas is in no hurry to give an answer.

side b features mirage a desert sound collage glued to a steady pulse that rolls and rolls, circumventing any destination. mirage is a contour map of no surprising peaks just undulating valleys of wistful cathodic sound creeks, sometimes veering off to plains in full view of the moon, in earshot of solitary wolf cries. like tuesday paris texas, mirage is testament of superpitcher�s versatile prospecting beyond the elemental sound tools of the electronic music trade.

after their highly regarded debut on attic music called �laq 02� back in may 2016 boston 168 are back with a 4-track spanning release named �khidi raver�.
again, the italian duo delivers a well balanced release that cleverly touches different sides of modern day techno music. from the slow paced chug �khidi raver� to the emotive tones of �blu bridge�, the a-side already showcases the duo�s versatile pallette.
on the b-side we find an acidic growler named �j the master� which is heavy arms material for the festival season. label owner fabrizio lapiana offers a haunting remix of �khidi raver� to close down the record.

musically and emotionally, superpitcherÆs third full-length studio album, the golden ravedays is a one sound autobiography that exhibits the skill, feeling and style that the artist has honed over a period of twenty years, musically, and forty-plus-years, emotionally. and full-length it is: the golden ravedays is an epic album of 24 tracks that was released in january 2017 and is stretching over 12 respective chapter albums during a one-year period. the seventh piece of the golden ravedays puzzle will be released on hippie dance in july 2017. number 7 of the series introduces two further tracks of the sound adventure that superpitcher is taking us on this year.

side a features andy, music made by superpitcher in memory and admiration of a pioneer artist and his works. andy warhol looks a scream, hang him on my wall, andy warhol, silver screen, can t tell them apart at all, andy walking, andy tired, andy take a little snooze, tie him up when he s fast asleep, send him on a pleasant cruise, when he wakes up on the sea, be sure to think of me and you, he ll think, about paint and he ll think about glue, what a jolly boring thing to do. david bowieÆs lyrics about andy warhol mirror the groovy yet deeply moving emotion of this track. the music superpitcher imagined here is a pleasant cruise in itself and once you wake up from it, you will for sure think of andy. side b features yves. the track starts with a long introduction of harp music and then gently evolves into one of the more fragile and poetic pieces superpitcher has created thus far for the golden ravedays record. similar to andy this track is dedicated to an artist, yves saint laurent. what is clear in this music is that there is an intense understanding of the suffering yves saint laurent lived throughout his life as an artist and fashion designer. as only superpitcher can, he translated that emotion into this beautiful and touching piece of music.

take care out there, roy of the ravers is back with another round of boisterous hardware hack-outs on acid waxa. you can tell he means business on opening track -supremacy royale-, a fast and mean-tempered slice of bleepy techno with brains to match its brawn. -ambergris 9- is a more playful jam with wonderfully dated melodic lines lifted from the pantheon of bbc library music, and then -time 2 jack- spins off into strange, abrasive realms of experimental acid. the epic -en trance 10- wheels its way through more than 15 minutes on the b-side, employing trancey bassline strategies to keep your brain locked on course for the full trip.

alexx a-game makes his return to swing ting after last year�s �a-game everyday� & �gangsters� with the soulfully poignant �braver�. the 7� is the 1st physical drop on fact magazine�s label of 2016, following well-received equiknoxx & madd again! releases in 2017. in 2015 swing ting�s samrai & platt received a tune from alexx�s manager, �braver� asking if they�d be able to contribute to the production on the track. listening to the stems, it became apparent how amazing alexx�s vocal delivery sounded stripped to just the rhodes & bassline played by frequent a-game collaborator & fellow jamaican vern hill. after adding effects and flourishes the crew began playing the �smooth edit� on swing ting radio shows and at dj sets around the globe.
