brillian raw melodic electro, a la bunker , legowelt etc

carlton doom has existed only in the shadows of a 27 year old’s delphian consciousness, until now. necrodancer ep emerges as deep sea frequency’s fourth and most audacious offering, a four track package of mutated breaks and scuzzy electro due 5th october 2018. charged forward by a riotous bass line, the title track brings together crystalline high end amidst dizzying drums. ‘pipepipepipe’ is a maximal dose of big room energy followed by ‘bad batch’, a messed up trip of broken beats and swollen bass. closing off the ep, choppy breaks take the lead on ‘rot’.

(3lp embossed gatefold cover with printed inner sleeves) ravaged and warped breakbeats haunted by wailing euphoric noise, vivid and graphic reflections of fractured post-industrial hardcore, moments of poetry flashing within a thick impending fog. this is our soundtrack. a unique and visionary achievement, a wholly origina future of beauty and despair: brutal, gritty, alive and urgent, blooming in the ruins, spiralling and raw, howling with life.

the berlin duo gives us two impressive examples of their iconic dance floor creations. on green vinyl they show their endless passion for driving beats and sounds that dig into your body and mind. if you are looking for real house music and not only house tracks, then this record is made for you. and for dancers. this colored vinyl comes with free label sticker.

punks are back! after a stunning debut in 2017 these guys are returning with new material. this record was influenced by the latest events connected with governmental issues with russian club culture - raids, shutdowns of clubs and major festivals. damage was inflicted on our beloved clubs and festivals such as outline, arma17, rabitza. we admire our neighbors who fought for their houses and managed to protect them: ukrainian closer, british fabric and georgian bassiani.
this is a message about a sincere wish to save equality and independence. there’s no place for political games in our cultural life. only freedom matters.

coming next from adult only: the repress of one of the most sought-after 12s from the label back catalogue. ao19: “formula express – main course” was originally released in 2002 and featured guillaume la tortue, jef k and chris carrier.
this is actually some of the last records ever produced by the mysterious guillaume la tortue, one of the pioneer of electronic music in france, who’s quoted by laurent garnier in his infamous “electrochoc” book as one of his main influence back in the days.

the record opens on the “main course”: a classic tech-house number with a beautiful 909 beat and a tasteful use of various samples and fx all through the track. the funky vocals still sound fresh today but the secret here (as often with chris carrier’s related work) is the groove – the kind of groove that reminds you summer days in the park while the strong bass-line announces already the next track.
on the flip, “starter” stands out as the perfect dancefloor killer with an infernal groove and a real fat analog bass-line that will keep you moving whether you want it or not. add just a few crispy tribal percussions on a classic raw 909 beat and you got the simplest and dubbiest song of the record but also the most efficient dancefloorwise.
the last cut, “apple pie”, might be the deepest of them all. spacy melodies and trippy vocals in the background make you first feel like you’re chillin on some extraterrestrial beach far away from earth. it starts as a nice breakbeat building the atmosphere before slowly evolving into a more 4-4esque tech-house with the bass coming in only after a couple of minutes. even if the sound was resolutely analogic, the whole ep is extremely well produced with a special care for details. at many levels this three-track ep is a landmark in the label history.
time for repress.
