for their tenth release, voodoo down has again chosen to debut a new act to add to their label roster. andy harper and nic ford have been making music together for over a decade but began releasing in earnest under the name maddermodes in 2014 on their own label, shift coordinate points. they have since put out records on the labels millions of moments and night drive music. their handful of releases have already drawn support from top names like move d and nick höppner, and its clear that the duos sound is only getting more refined with each successive record. the ep entitled emprical evidence is a wholly cinematic piece of work, spread across four tracks that unravel slowly, unified by a theme of pumping syncopated rhythms under sprawling pad and string progressions. its easy to get lost in the thick arrangements, and the inventive use of samples and melodic elements invite repeat listening. equally suitable for early morning hours, ultra-deep techno sets, or quiet home listening sessions.

unheard nuggets all over this one... palto flats and new general catalogue are partnering to release awaawaa, a new record by woo, the longstanding project of british brothers mark and clive ives. undertones of: jon hassell, holger czukay, durutti column, popol vuh, this heat... a hearty recommendation from us! featuring never before heard recordings from woo’s archives, awaawaa sees the band at their most evocative and psychedelic - presenting a suitelike, atmospheric collection of stunning miniatures. recorded in south london during 1975-82, awaawaa lines up chronologically with other woo releases, such as ‘whichever way you are going, you are going wrong,’ and touches upon synth, ambient, electronics, dub, and even krautrock. following re-issues on drag city and emotional rescue, awaawaa presents a new chapter in woo’s celebrated discography, further distilling the brother’s unique and otherworldy vision.

repress 2016 , stop what you are doing right now, you have just found that record that stays with you all summer. the record to soundtrack the bbq, to gently raise the energy on a hazy evening, to baffle the midnight marauders into dancefloor destruction, to give the early morning ravers that extra kick. that one more song.

faraway reach casts classixx’s young-but-nostalgic melodies and sublime chords in a more mature, restrained light, albeit no less lively and bright. establishing themselves as producers of note on their debut lp (pitchfork called them “great songwriters, too”), faraway reach delivers powerfully smooth and soulful jewels that are still decidedly their own - the classixx signature is one that can’t be traced. their love of plaintive voices and disco-inspired grooves is as evident as ever, but this time around everything is a bit bolder, the cast is bigger, the melodies distilled into a higher potency - it’s all just as good, but better. “on the first record, we wanted to include only people that were our friends, and have it be really personal…” david begins, a thought blake finishes: “this time we wanted to make a record with a lot of different kinds of vocals, to see if we could be the common thread.” the album traverses locales, vocalists and inspirations. it s a fitting movement for the duo, from venice beach to the mountains of south africa and everywhere in between - a faraway reach.
the double vinyl release includes a download code.

viva erotica has been a gabba-beat chamber orchestra, a facebook sculpture, a youporn recycling machine and is now becoming a piece of wax (a record). four tracks are furious comments on the downfall of club music - the bassdrum as a weapon against the bassdrum - the other four want to forgive and forget. 2015 was the year of about-face. each of the 330 records has a cutout from a coffee-table book plastered on the front.

a truly poetic record that works in a club as well as on a romantic walk. pure house bliss ...

my favourite label out there with the biggest smasher so far…we included the drifter mix in our essential mix but the original tracks are wonderful too. i love this record!!! kristian

bringing together their eclectic musical background, both individuals behind the recently born artist duo exponent share a vision of a uniting element in dance music, which is much more defined by atmosphere and its demarcation to mainstream music than by simple genre characteristics. sometimes broken, sometimes straight - those three tracks end up with a four-to-the-floor attitude, without intending to. complex and simple at the same time, never letting go of that one hypnotic groove, which keeps us together during those special nights. 22.22. is released on freakadelle, the record label of the same-named cultural npo based in salzburg, austria.

paris-based beat x changers brings up to you a new record with a collaborative project in the shape of classic cuts.our new release introduces two new french artists brought together on a split ep: tell from paris and name from the sunny avignon city, both of them backed- up by exclusive remixes from three of our historical beat x producers: neue grafik and pulkone (aka x_1 & monomite). on the a-side, discover tell - a 20-year old jazz drummer - who releases two soulful and melodic tracks. you’ll recognize the heat of the mpc grain, obsessing samples and uplifting breaks. on the b-side, southern producer name offers a disco-like and funky house music via two dancing tracks with a clear reference to the clubbing universe of new york and chicago. this activist dj and experimented producer – he is an ableton teacher on the side – gained recognition in the south of france music scene in the last decade and reached the ears of producer kink.grand Écart (i.e. wide gap or split) recalls the time it took to release this ep. it’s also a geographical gap, a gap between the ideas of the five artists brought together on this release, a gap between our expectations and the reality of some passed – or cancelled – venues in paris. we have always believed in this project and in our flexibility!

nice price deal !!! it’s been nearly two years since the last sanys record. in the meantime, techno has flirted with noise and industrial, often resulting in gloomy self-indulgence. thankfully, there is no such creative verbiage on this seventh instalment of downfall theory. “seizure” starts the release with a robust, stepping rhythm and relentless stabs playing out against atmospheric, eerie textures. it’s like shed’s wax project jamming with deepchord. next up is ‘natural high’. this is one of sanys’ darkest moments so far, inspired by the depth and length of the st petersburg winter, it sees the russian producer lay down a visceral, muddy rhythm, against which ghostly shrieks and waves of frosty chords, blown in from the baltic sea, meet.

from chicago, valis are considered the truly kings of the ebm funky sound. this record presents 4 of their most acclaimed tracks and it s even more special because the band has been dissolved due to internal discrepancies of the members and is practically sure that this release will be their second and last vinyl. the fresh mix of ebm, electro and funk and jeremiah meece s screams on top it will explode any dancefloor on earth, a truly classic for the very near future!. all tracks have been analogically remastered specially for this vinyl version.

yay recordings is more than happy to release a new ep and this time is the turn of the italian producer alex picone. analogue dreams and rough groove are the soul of this new record. !!! providing good vibes !!!

terrific record! eight charged, intimate meditations by julie normal and olivier demeaux, playing a rickety ondes martenot and an old church harmonium. gripping, detailed, stately improvisation — a bit like the ùrlars in classical bagpipe music — which nervily mixes the sternly doom-laden with precarious, other-worldly wonderment. (the ondes martenot is an amazing twentieth-century instrument — beloved by messiaen, for example, and varese. the theme-song of star trek is a vocal forgery of its sound. ‘j’aime cette fragilité qui côtoie la capacité de te décoller le tympan sur certaines fréquences inopinément,’ says julie. ‘je tiens une bombe dans les mains. j’aime son instabilité, son humanité.’) wood, breath, blood, eggshells… on the night of a purple moon. very warmly recommended.

the next release on lag is from bay area to berlin transplant jamaica suk. the kontort ep (lag006) is another 3 cut record with all original music. the title track kontort is a composition with the big room in mind with thunderous kicks and bass with intricate panning and dub inflections. holographic is a another big room techno workout with a deliciously infectious piano line which allows the producers personality to shine through. depth between waves is a dub techno roller. this track shows restraint till the break then re-emerges with a synth sound that pushes the groove forward in a simple yet undeniable manner.

blackwater starts it’s third cycle with it’s tenth release with an ep from london based duo, ossa di mare. a record that has come from the dark internal depths of a carnal energy between the two artists that make up duo, constructed around the idea of hallucinogenic experiences induced by dimethyltryptamine. each track relates to a understanding and connection throughout the experience.
pressed on 180g vinyl, black label with a custom pocket jacket courtesy of jose montemayor in a pvc plastic bag.

future times is very happy to announce a new record from rbl, who we haven t heard from since his 7- for ft (the second-ever release on the label) about 7 years back (!).tip once again the songs are split up into dance and romance sides, on the dance side we have -frequency illusion,- a glorious slap of vibro-house for the deejay crew, coming in hot like a rugged pal joey tune, and on the romance side we have the slow hypnotic funk of -number games,- complete with dope mantra vox and italian slo-house chug. this one is a doozy!!

the three tracks travel in many different directions. speaking directly to all the dreamers, the result is a surprising cross-over in which synthesized european music gets injected by imaginary tropical visions. the record is opening with the inner mind percussive ambient « chekema », an animistic incantation that will please all those who see parties as modern ritual gatherings. the jazzy wave of « get enough » cracks open the b-side. it’s a foggy street jam in which the cold cr-68 rhythm balances perfectly with the warm organ chords of the crumar. closing things off is the spectral reggae song “love so high”, a desperate cry from a polar explorer stranded on an iceberg drifting towards the carribean. heartbreaking.

french composer and ondes martenot virtuoso, christine ott releases her first full-length album since 2009 and her debut record for gizeh records. only silence remains is beautifully melodic and filled with mystery, seeing multi-instrumentalist ott performing on a variety of different instruments throughout the record.

tresor records proudly presents the second chapter in mønic’s musical journey on the label. head of osiris music, mønic is an accomplished producer whose style can be defined as raw yet exceptionally refined, allowing for a certain industrial inspiration to ooze from his exquisite sound design. ‘four sides of truth’ opens a conversation between pristenely defined low frequencies and an infinity of fleeting, chirping synth layers. this discussion will continue throughout the record, taking additional drums into the exchange and swirling into ‘point to the sun’ in full panning effect. on the other side, lower frequencies undoubtedly take over and win the argument in ‘self doubt is worthless’. uk-based kamikaze space programme contributes with a revisited version of ‘morse’, initially released on the parsons hill ep. preserving the abrasive textures of the original, ksp dramatically raises the track’s thrilling factor.

fantastic voyage’s autumn 2015 release of soul for dancers proved so successful, that we didn’t have to think twice when lois wilson (mojo, record collector) asked if she could do it all over again. it turns out that there were plenty more classic sides in her dj crates, drawing on that rich seam of early soul and proto-soul rhythm & blues, of the sort that would have packed the dancefloors on the sixties club scene, or has been embraced by subsequent generations of club soul diehards.

have you ever taken mushrooms ? well this record has a story, long time friend of the label joseph is as close to a living example of a don juan as you can get. this record includes songs inspired from a brief love affair. mushroom induced, mitte lockdown, cross border communication it s the slowest record we ve ever put out but hey - summer time approaches so roll a jay or take a capsule and fly away on this caravan we call life. slow trippy balearic grooves!

sn 002 comes with the touch of ambient atmospheres paired with classic house and techno grooves. hypnotic synth pads come along with quality drums and smooth sounding basses in the typical way of fabe productions. vinyl only!

taking the release-portfolio into account, rampa built over the last years on keinemusik, him adding a new ep to the label s catalogue is worth every credit of trust. and this very “trust” ep is living up to that not only by its name. it certainly offers value for money, considering km-releases have mostly been two-trackers. there are four cuts on this one, each one following a different approach, making it also a hella versatile record.

2016 repress , legendary deeply rooted house records comes with a new serie releases called rootstrax. first ep is by a mysterious french artist that remains unknown for now. however, the listener that knows a bit about the french house music history can easily define the roots of the producer (not saying he can point out who he is :-) the influences of early 90s fcom/fnac sound is present combined with some classic chicago house... this is exactly the concept of rootstrax. interesting concept and cool record that makes us wonder if this has been dome by an old fox or a young puppy producer? for sure this sounds very mature and delivers 12inch extraordinaire!

it s moscow disco! russian selector extraordinaire arsenii makes his rnt debut with a 3 tracker of obscure and infinitely groovy edits. from the shaft in-outer-space drama of son of the son,to the proto-balearic lilt of jungle melody to the big band funk of fool like a child, arsenii demonstrates his skill at digging through and slicing up his ample record collection. a pretty yellow 10inch with a classic jazz library label design rounds this one out nicely!

giant cuts presents. shmlss. shmlss consists of bart and michiel, two young dutch guys who connected with each other through the disco sound they both love. always searching for those rare gems in dark, dusty old record stores, they often come home with the same records. their dj sets are diverse and they have developed a particular sound. disco selectors at 22tracks amsterdam and with releases in the bag for special edition, disco deviance, to rack & ruin, paper disco, because music things are certainly bright for shmlss.

holiday 80s sophomore whiskey disco ep exhibits the upward trajectory of the mysterious polish duo. their first ep showcased slower, smoother sounds, whereas these four songs showcase the grittier side of polish music, one slightly less fashionable, until now. each song is dance-floor-proven to turn out. from the sexy psychedelia of truncheon man and male jeziora to the left-ward jazz house of juhas zmarl and fm cool of letnia milosc. many wd buyers thought their first ep to be finest record on the label, get mokotuff before it s gone too.

a pair of kaleidoscopic, undulating dance floor paeans, expertly synthesized from only the finest core elements by studio barnhus debutante ld nero. the kind of tracks that do everything and nothing at the same time, you know? mastered at mixmastering.de, designed at studio laurenz brunner. record so dope we had to shrink-wrap it!
