following the success of their 4th album malamore released in april this year, french duo the limiñanas have now trusted london star dj, producer and friend andrew weatherall to remix the flagship single garden of love (feat. peter hook). the collaboration has resulted in two unique remixes. when we released je ne suis pas tres drogue in 2009, andrew played it in his radio show in london. then bernie fabre contacted me because andrew wanted us to play in his festival de la city a la cité in carcassone. thats how we met. when we worked with peter hook, the idea of a maxi with one or two remixes made sense. so we did this record with the original edit of garden of love and two remix edits by andrew weatherall. - lionel liminana

following the release of his debut album as trevino earlier this year, marcus ‘intalex’ kaye marks his first notch on the hotflush bedpost with a plucky four-track ep, wearing all the stripes that an artist of his experience and versatility has earned. kaye’s four-to-the-floor productions as trevino have always possessed a latent sheen from the dynamic world of drum and bass where he first made his name. here it’s evident in the impeccably balanced mix of lead track, ‘slide away’, where forlorn melody is driven as much by bass as it is by liquid chords. the tempo is upped on ‘mosaic’ - a techno record that follows an uplifting path - and on desecrate it’s in fifth gear with a bass line that rolls and grows and bangs and rolls. the high-speed, echo chamber dub of ‘jungle love rounds off an ep of notable range.

if we put armando, gene hunt and steve pointdexter together in a room with a few synthesizers, some rhythm boxes, a roland 606 and a few cans of beer, what we would get is shrimp traxx. this very young, practically unknown austrian artist has just made his recording debut on bons records with five tracks that range in style from classic to trippy, psychotic acid house. these five jam sessions, made 100% using hardware, are now appearing on the catalan label. after an ep with a markedly 90s house sound, bons records is now turning towards more ghetto vibes with a record to be spun and danced to exclusively in a house club. this is not warm-up stuff!

len leise - ing ing - the first release for general purpose (gp), a record label created by len leise and longtime dj partner and collaborator salvador. leise and salvador neither plan to release exclusively on gp, nor promise regular releases. it’s a label for when they can find the time, energy, money and, most important, the sound they believe in. ing is about embracing change, experimentation and progression. terrified to follow a format, leise looked to other genres for inspiration. he turned to his love for dub, afro, post punk and experimental music to find guidance. artists like scientist, jah shaka, savant, adrian sherwood and andromeda all in their own way influence ing. ing is not what you’d expect from leise. ing is a dub record, a post punk record, an experimental record, a balearic record, a homage record, a record with a purpose.

with an eye in the past and a foot in the future, acid avengers aims at federating the vibrant but little recognised acid french scene. through a series of split eps (jaquarius, monoenzyme-307, voiron, botine, umwelt, paris acid boys), the record label celebrates the hallucinated sounds of the golden age of rave. for that first release of fucked-up electro and raw techno, jaquarius and mono-enzyme 307 resuscitate the nineties sounds through a modern understanding of acid music. an ep for the legs and the brain, that will thrill all the braindancers

popping up for the first time on figure spc y, it was the remarkable synth-work of ubx127 that instantly struck a chord with the labels demand for substantial techno. now the stockholm artist proves himself loyal and hits back twofold with a pair of eps that further highlight his mastery of both vivid modulation and effective sequencing. leading into this batch of new tunes are the crafty and beautifully fleshed-out synth-arpeggios of opener han, which ubx127 complements gracefully by adding tender touches of melody. a2 cut create and destroy displays a new side to the producer that verges on the manic, building upon a swirling theme that soon flies into a lunatic frenzy. soothing then are the spacious sounds of barabrus, a crisp piece of floating breakbeats and shoving sub-bass. living up to its name, swells starts as a bold synth-led groove and slowly grows into a romping beast that rebels against glistening sonic whiplashes. even in its own right constant permutation part 1 stands as a cohesive and compelling record that will add to any collection. but with its equally strong successor already waiting in the wings, it is ubx127 himself who will make a lasting impression.

the first record on new york trax imports is a split ep by the stockholm-based artist dawid dahl and another alias, a seasoned techno producer from ireland. dawid dahl’s ‘krig’ and ‘gehenna’ are two beautiful, yet intense and dark tracks. they are accompanied by ‘craic fiend’, a ruthless face melter combining fast tempo, distortion and a mind-blowing off-beat breakdown.

with his first ep on orbis, binny is ramping it up, once again. we’re very pleased & honoured to host him, his 11th appearance on a vinyl record so far. someone to watch out for! on the b-side, lee holman takes it to the raw side of analogue techno.

the cyovac machine is held together by a team of like minded artists that work to move production forward. cryovac functions to preserve the soundcraft of thees artists into the vinyl format. cryovac vinyl is pressed by a.garcia at archer record press in detroit. the cryovac operates to push music that represents the soul of its maker. sierra sam and pascal hetzel bring the smooth techno feel of berlin and an analog savvy to fist side of cryovac #14. they combine for two minimal machine soul bangers that zone your mind and move your body. spam burrito is the creation of a.garcia and kieth kemp. this combination rocks out choice wavs that have been tweeked to perfection under the rising and falling of effects. dave powers choses the low key emotional path of ever an evolving synth moving an intelligent knock. the 14th edition of cryovac is a must hear.

zwischenfall formed in belgium in 1982 with michael sass (synths), martin urban (bass/vocals) and stephan kraemer (guitar/drums). they were united by their interest in combining electronic and traditional instruments, which developed the basis for 1982 demo recordings. by chance patrick codenys of the belgian electro pioneers front 242, heard two songs and decided to record a 4-song ep

at sneaky we are very pleased to welcome g.markus. what can we say about him? not much apart from the fact that he makes super groovy old-skool house beats like not many can these days. spreading perverted twistedness mixed with great classic housey vocals, ‘smoking hut’ will be how your dance floor will end up when you play this record out. recently also known for releasing great re-edits on soul clap records and as part of s.h.a.g edits va on roots for bloom. what else can we say? well, not much, really. g insisted on having a clause on the contract that clearly states that his true identity shall not be revealed. all we can say is that he’s a real mofo and that you’d be better off listening to his music instead of to this silly banter…

vinyl only release ... first release for the neapolitan born london based duo konstress new vinyl only imprint. blind box series co-founders launch their own namesake record label with a sound-defining 3 track ep, hitting the different flavours of their almost ten-year background. tasty indeed.

the ninth ep from the magic waves label comes courtesy of the enigmatic and mysterious voiceover woman. we are given four tracks of modern electro-psychedelic wizardry that will surely melt your mind, as well as any dancefloor it comes into contact with. opening the record is ‘input sensitive’, and we’re plunged into a world of swirling synthesiser emotions from the start, tripping hard into ‘mega gift’, a monster of a track that not only shifts the speed up a gear or three but funks it out in spaced-up futuristic ways too. side b brings us ‘total rotation plug-on’ and takes us deeper into lush aphexian dreamscape dimensions before the whirlwind climax of the record, the closing stormer ‘convolvo’, expanding any mind it’s aurally connected to at an exhilarating rate. it’s a record that leaves you mentally and physically breathless, and is not one to miss. comes in limited quantities, and vinyl is coloured!

fuckthegovernment.ltd, a.k.a. f.t.g (alfredo trastulli) and music box head honcho, marco riff, return to the skylax fold in 2016 with a cache of house nuggets for our listening pleasure. their last venture on skylax saw f.t.g collaborate with a bunch of his friends, resulting in some of the best tracks we’d heard all year, including the unforgettable fuckthegovernment theme. their tracks have been celebrated and hailed by some of the best djs in the game, names such as derrick may, ricardo villalobos, raresh, and dj harvey. the bar set by the first record remains sky high, and somehow, these two manage to raise the bar even higher. it may be the biggest cliche going when talking about an album, but the duo certainly do take us on a journey, through the past and present of house music. it’s a record not too dissimilar in tone to paranoid london’s from a few years back, but f.t.g and marco strip things back even further than those guys did, in our opinion, the sound is more raw with less frills, and no track names to predispose feelings in the listener either. this eight track project is cohesive and elaborate, with movements through sounds both acid and jazzy, minimal and maximal. it explores sounds that came to prominence in famous house locales such as detroit and chicago over in the u.s., but the underground european influence is definitely present, from paris to berlin, and of course f.t.g and marco’s home of italy. with this album, these guys add to the underground sound that has cultivated in the city of perugia for years now, a place that has seen the likes of simoncino and nicholas hone their craft.don’t miss out on a piece of skylax history

following on from march s shlømo remix package featuring donato dozzy, bambounou, shlømo and label boss kennedy smith, bright sound s second release of 2016 will new a brand new ep from sweden s andreas tilliander. with his releases on his own repeatle imprint and his tm404 alias s hardware-driven techno featuring on skudge white and kontra-musik, tilliander is among sweden s most versatile talents working right now. his arrival on bright sounds is of a piece with bsrx 004, last year s reissue of fellow swede henrik johansson s 1997 ep as smyglyssna. as with johansson s record, tilliander s stettin libau ep explores slower tempo techno, locating the moments of space and energy in between its rhythmic structures. this search is most keenly observed in knapp ledsyn , with its ever-shifting sonic landscape melting away at various points to reveal its unusual, skeletal beats and hidden melodic details, while the ep title track and nybliven lots apply that approach to what might at first be a traditional dub techno template, yet still offering further small moments of off-beat character. completing the release is a detox operation remix of knapp ledsyn from nonplace records chief burnt friedman, in which the german veteran strips things down to a gentle patter of drums overlaid with suggestive flashes of the original s rich atmospheric elements.

skalen ep consists of sleek, functional but no-nonsense techno variations from snitch. leading with >skalen< - a deadly, serrated tool fashioned to carve up the hardest of dance floors and takes you through the tunnel without a torch.>kromag< displays a bit more of the swing that this producer does so well adding darker atmosphere to a killer effective techno banger. the ep rounds up with a terrific laiva remix of kromag. laiva was discovered in the eastern town of kuhmo and made an appearance on wavereform before with a killer t16 record. he makes it all about dub-scuffed kicks here and pulsating bleeps throughout his version of ruthlessly straightforward, point-blank attack for the 48-hour-party people.

after a fabulous summer and a mind-blasting krake festival, killekill takes its next step and kicks off another new label called vanta series, which is destined for small series of 12-es with out-standing dancefloor tracks. the name derives from vantablack, a colour from nano technology, which is the blackest black and actually invisible. vanta therewith stands for the total emptiness and is the perfect name for a label which does not have a defined identity itself but is a platform for different series, which will all have a concept and aesthetic in itself. the first series is called -the end is near-. it consists of 4 releases and comes with an artwork by french artist elzo durt. every release will contain a small poster, all four posters put together become elzo durt s piece -les anges de l apocalypse-. first record is by dez williams, who also released on shipwrec and bass agenda recently. a-side acidbanger is a serious banger and has future acid classic written all over it. the b-side comes with two acid variations - one more stingy, one emotional and psychedelic - which show the potential of this outstanding producer. open your ears and put the needle on - here is some acid!

chances are you ve already danced to one of his sets at panorama bar – matthew styles has been a regular guest dj at the club for several years –, but you ve probably also come across at least one record with music that went through the englishman s meticulous hands. while matthew has released great but small numbers of 12-es on various labels since 2007, his credits in mixing, engineering and mastering exceed his solo discography by far. with the metro ep we re finally offering a full solo release by matthew styles on ostgut ton

the sixth release from hong kong/tokyo label palms & charms sees the return of barnaby bruce, and starts with a tale of daring escape. hearing the approach of a loping synth, the protagonist checks the window: mysterious people are gathering outside his house! as a somewhat gallic groove emerges, he and his girlfriend are in his car and heading south, driven on by the swing of the percussion. will he find his deliverance on the continent? next up, ruf dug steps in with a spacious electronic reggae-esque remix, leading up to a killer piano line which pushes the groove straight onto the autoroute. ces t magnifique. on the b-side, our erstwhile fugitive and partner awake by the side of a country road in southern france. a baguette, a bottle of wine and the sound of chattering insects. oh, for the cicadas! as they head ever further south, they begin to reflect on what other worlds await them at journey s end. on the car radio a band plays a curious but driving blend of disco and percussion, with a distinctly house-influenced melody. cette musique les deplace. was it all just a crazy dream? grab your suitcase, head to the coast and pick up a copy of this limited edition record to find out...

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.

berlin-based obstacle records returns for its second release with another ep that draws on uk garage heritage while offering its own fresh take via a trio of newer names to watch out for.the ep’s original track comes from lesus - a hitherto unknown name that splices its stripped down ghost-esque rhythmic backbone with an uneasy chiming melody. the a2’s remix from obi - another name to keep track of - retains the pace & 2step stylings of the original while combining it with a chicago house sensibility.on the b side we find two alternate versions from the mysterious prince of ethiopia. the 808 version mutates the track into a old school hip hop instrumental, with the aforementioned 808 sounds to the fore, replete with vocal sampels, record scratches and ray guns. the mt40 version takes those elements, loses the snarling bassline, and pins it all to a broken beat rhythm, once again underlining obstacle’s reverence for uk dance music culture & its desire to push it into surprising new territory.

i am havayah, all life is sacred! one of the most important pioneers in techno history, johannes heil, with a new side project and long awaited release on his very own and new imprint >sacred<. music as spiritual and healing art combined with a wonderful artwork. there is nothing more to say about this record. just listen and feel it.
