brilliant detroit piano house nuggets - dj john collins edits....features productions from mad mike banks

the next release coming out of the roska camp is this smart vinyl-only followup to the roska allstars release. this second instalment brings more of the same versatile movements from some fantastic producers currently leading the way for upfront danceable material. main man roska signs up terror danjah to pull of a smart remix of his track >without it<. its somewhat of a guilty pleasure hearing both artists signature idents in one song, terror with his evil gremlin laugh and roska with his ubiquitous shout out! however its all about the arrangement here as terror reforms those original trumpet sounds and adds some heavy distorted bass. j:kenzo serves up >let it move< which is all out pure electro style with punchy drums and dirty synths, again lending to the surprising nature of this labels output. tickles completes the vinyl only package with >da growler<. drums are tougher than iron and bass harder than rock as tickles blends funky, dubstep and house into his own dance-floor destructive mould. all three records show a different side to the current uk bass and funky scene, yet they somehow could only belong on kicks & snares. a fine package for a burgeoning label.

classic, on music on vinyl

nazareths second 74 album >rampant< finds the group tempering the four-on-the-floor hard rock attack they developed on >loud and proud< by working a surprising and effective southern rock edge into the songs. the end result is an album that sounds like a early ac/dc meets lynyrd skynyrd at their hardest rocking. this gatefold sleeved, 180 grams audiophile edition of the album contains the b-side to the >love hurts< 7 inch single as a bonus. rock on!

released in 1973, pronounced >l&#277,,,,,,,h- nérd skin- nérd< is the debut album of legendary pioneers of southern rock lynyrd skynyrd. they brought together all the best elements of southern culture – blues, country, garage rock, southern poetry – and created a gumbo of southern sounds and flavors as none had done before. there are few debut albums that sounds as raw and determined as pronounced does, and this is largely due to the hard, lean edge that lynyrd skynyrd bring to the music. the album features the songs >i aint the one<, >gimme three steps< and >free bird<, their famous rock anthem. music on vinyl is proud to present this album, which marks the birth of a great band that spawned an entire genre.
180 grams audiophile vinyl in gatefold sleeve.

wave turned out to be the last album the patti smith group would record, as it was also last album smith would record before a nine year hiatus. the godmother of punk decided to focus on her family life and moved to michigan, but not before leaving us with gems like the sexually mysterious >dancing barefoot< (dedicated to her husband to be fred sonic smith) and her amazing, biting version of >so you want to be (a rock n roll star)<. produced by todd rundgren, this is her most pop-oriented album, and many at the time could not appreciate her more accessible sound. nevertheless, wave, her spoken word tribute to pope john paul i (who reigned for only 33 days) is as touching and harrowing now as when it came out in 1979. available on vinyl for the first time since its original release!
pressing on 180 grams audiophile vinyl, includes 4 page insert.

here we go with the 2nd release on circle music of the belgium michael coninx alias hermanez. this talented young belgian is both in good company and is fast earning the respect from his peers that many producers can only dream of, with releases on paul ritchs quartz imprint and release >nicotine/soms< on leena music, anja schneiders imprint, plus hermanez remixes for la factoria, and monique musique to name a few. now, after the big success of his first release on circle >locomotive< he will be back with the second one, the >spank ep<, on the mannheim german based label. the a side brings us spank. a groovy and tribal house tune who will rock the floors. the b side with stomp is more progressive and a little bit techno. very cool for every maintime set! circle music is very happy to release this nice piece of clubmusic!

new label supafrico kicks off with a fantastic sampler 12 inch ep that unearths four stunning funky afro rarities from the vaults. first up is an awesome extended edit of hararis classic >party<, a floor-filling cosmic groover with killer vocals from 1980. next up are the wonderful lijadu sisters with their beautiful duet harmonies. featured here is >not any longer<, one of the stand outs from their uber rare nigerian only lp >horizon unlimited<. side b features the mega obscure 12 inch version of eko roosevelts breathtaking afro disco odyssey >kilimandjaro my home< followed by ezy & isaacs >take off<, an incredible afro funk work out taken from their impossible to find 1974 lp >soul rock<, one of the the holy grails of the afro genre. with all tracks lovingly remastered, this is a must for anyone with a taste for those amazing afro grooves - wonderful stuff.

a - side: i aint hiding (heavy disco edit)
ashley gets low down and dirty with the southern rock giants the black crowes. their >i aint hiding< track was a real marmite moment for their fans. ashley (being a fan) turns the stonesy disco rock track (think miss you) inside out to create a psychedelic dancefloor wig out. already a big fave with the horse meat disco crew this has been one of mr beedles most requested edits/reworks over the last couple of years and he has decided to let this one out the vaults. its a monster.

look sharp. kap bambino is a stampeding punk-rock juggernaut,and its hurtling this way. unlike most assaults of lawless rock n roll ideals, its not powered by guitars,or rather any live instruments whatsoever. the empowering eruption of frenzied discordance, space invader sucker-punch beats and caterwauling incantations conjured by the bordeaux duo, caroline martial and orion bouvier, is the result of harnessing the unruly spirit of bands like suicide and nirvana, then feeding it through a tangled web of samplers, synthesisers and software modules. the result is a more immediate, more kinetic and more inspiring show than your likely to witness from any of the baggy-shorted buffoons 2009 tries to throw up as punk-rockers.

vespas, pillen, rock n roll. neben „west side story“ und „grease“ hat kein musikalisches drama die jugendkultur mehr geprägt als „quadrophenia“ – die rockoper der britrocker the who aus dem jahre 1973.

escort have been setting dance floors ablaze with their disco-infused beats, irresistibly catchy hooks and seductive live show since releasing a series of 12 inch singles in 2006. the 17-member disco orchestra, founded by producers eugene cho and dan balis, and fronted by lead singer adeline michele, features an incredible cast of musicians who have played with everyone from indie-rock titans arcade fire to avant-classical luminaries alarm will sound. >cameleon chameleon< is a theatrical masterpiece about the french serial impostor frederic bourdin, set to a beat that is equal parts thriller and the tom tom club.

this time its xdb delivering the goodies for dolly, as always pushing the boundaries between house and deep techno. with this 4 excellent cuts xdb is taking the label in even deeper territories. even though they are very well playable and will easily rock the floor, taking it up to somewhere between jupiter & mars, xdbs tracks are more than just proper dj-tools. so well-crafted, deep, harsh and hypnotising, but always firmly keeping floor contact with minimal yet funky drum programming, exactly as this kind of music should be. to top things of, brooks mosher on remix duties delivers a detroit inspired remix of sunda. big!

volta cab has made quite an impact on the nu disco / deep house scene since last year. he is a multitalented, versatile producer, performing brilliantly in a range from from nu disco, deep house, soul, techno to breakbeat. approaching music in an open way, he is not restricting himself to a certain genre, catching the zeitgeist. on serenades, volta cab takes us back to 1992 with a 4 tracker called >house of the rising fire ep<. all of the tracks are heavily influenced by rave and house soundscapes of the early 90s. think of early prodigy, altern8, rachel wallace and baby d, combined with a modern nu disco twist.

hot on the heels of their eponymous debut album (released on smalltown supersound in march 11), finnish electro-rock-stomp trio k-x-p are set to unleash a brand new three-track ep to mark their signing to manchesters melodic label.

brandt brauer frick haben wieder zugeschlagen. im vergangenen jahr debütierte das deutsche trio mit dem album >you make me real<, einer fusion aus techno und klassik. doch tracks wie >bop<, ein reichhaltiges, polyrhythmisches gebilde, zeigen, dass es geht. nun haben daniel brandt, jan brauer und paul frick ihr genre-bildendes experiment mit ihrem ensemble auf ein neues level gehoben: die computer haben sie eingetauscht gegen eine zehnköpfige band, mit der sie handgemachte dance-grooves live spielen können. wie das klingt, haben sie in diesem jahr bereits bei der eurosonic conference in holland gezeigt, dann in coachella, beim festival glastonbury, sonar, north sea jazz und bestival! der neue, handgemachte klang wurde nun auf einem brandneuen album festgehalten.

pressing on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

stephane signore delivers an excellent record called >we live in a world of ba57ard ep< chordy and firm techno that will rock in venues with good soundsystem. with long an well constructed builds on the opening track called bad trip. this is a vinyl that will no doubt get support from larger names in the industry. the second track is the stanny franssen remix of ba57ard. this is a nice rolling remix with a lot of dynamics and way more uplifting that the original. for the 3rd track on the ep we find this original piece. this is a very deep somewhat chaotic production, this might just be the eps winning track. with a strong arrangement and little vocal edits this will no doubt get played alot. for the closing track we have got >paranoid< the title covers the load, strong dark techno music that will rock your world.

part iii boasts contributions from portland, oregons performance art and house music group the miracles club (following releases on cut copys cutters label and famed mexican summer), wurst vet nick chacona - here with longtime partner anthony mansfield, and neurotic drum bands ulysses. the miracles clubs >i cant help it< is a heart-wrenching, ethereal ballad set atop a rock solid, chicago house-inspired rhythm section. easily the deepest cut to emerge from the nick chacona and anthony mansfields fun-filled studio sessions, >tase the wizard< is tailor made for desert raves and smoky basement clubs alike. >soular power< sees ulysses at the top of his talents, bringing the tempo way, way down for a slow-burning balearic beast.

anders trentemoller has become one of the most respected names in cutting edge electronic music in the last few years. his rise to notoriety was sparked by his early, techy releases for poker flat and audiomatique and has since gone on to stellar highs with his own personal take on the genre, spanning, pop, rock, indie and classical. his debut album >the last resort< was released in 2006 to much international acclaim, and the producer also began to become an in-demand remixer in the house and techno world. as the decade wore on his sound continued to progress, opening up his studio to more live instrumentation, and a looser, rock-meets electronic vibe with his stunning >into the great wide yonder< lp. now this special double cd and double vinyl release celebrates some of the producer s favourite remixes he completed for other artists, and also some of his personal picks where other musicians have reworked his music.

panacustica’s fourth release is amongst cosmic metal mother’s finest work. “time is now” the track in question, defies definition by mastering a style on it’s own, by fusing elements echoing from prog-rock drenched with emotional content into an adult and contemporary way of delivering which is unique to the cmm writing style. the original is melancholic bliss. a vocal line at the center of the piece whispers words about oscar wilde and mr. death accompanied by a cello melody that grows bigger and bigger into an angelic cascade of notes. the track begins and ends in the most bare way with just a drum beat leaving you with the feeling you have just entered a loop where time is irrelevant. commodity place has the second cut of the a side. the duo from rome, known in the global underground of the vinyl tribes for their signature guitar style, chooses to call their mix “experience”, clearly paying homage to the gods of rock, delivering a guitar solo that will fire up your speakers and fill your eyes with the brightest psychedelic colors that we all so desperately need in this age of grey anonymity. the b-side is a full eight-minute mix by the man who needs no introduction and made us all dance since day one, larry heard, a.k.a. mr. fingers. his version is a fast “four to the floor” track, where a shaker drives the house beat into the melodic lines and voice borrowed from the original, making it one hundred per cent dance floor efficient with the modernity and mastery of his touch

terry lee brown junior is back on plastic city with his new 3 track single >baltimore<. here we have two great remixes and one original dub version. on the a-side is the pumping bas amro remix. its a little bit techy and would rock every dancefloor at the maintime! the b1-track is the aki bergen remix and it sounds more minimal than the other ones. also we have here more elements from the original included! for the last is the b2-track. its the dub mix of the original with less vocals and a straighter beat programming. the productions are very accurate, the interplay of moods, sounds and emotions is functional and sexy, very concidered and perfectly restaged. terry lee brown junior make the next step right back into the clubs. perfect!

gethigh is a new track release from laid back. the lyrics may instantly lead your mind onto thinking of cannabis but try to think about it in a broader context, in a more universal way. we all want to get high whatever we do in life, in all walks of life, in spirits, sports, politics, showbusiness, all kind of business, in school and education and not to forget love. musically the groove is kept in the recognizable family of the horse, with an updated twist. actually the song was born in key of major, as a more rock guitar riff kinda song included in the package. also included is an ultra minimalistic version, mainly made on ipad. danish electronic musician and dj kasper bjørke has done a really cool remix. finally we made a space mix, mainly for our own pleasure and for those who like to get out there and more into it. a video is in the final editing stage, following the style of beautiful day and cocaine cool, with self made animation. music is more than a trendy sound and a fancy look. laid back is always going for something personal, original and timeless. copenhagen, september 2011.
