tokyo’s yoshinori hayashi makes his debut on lovers rock with “asylum,” an ep of deliciously bent avant-house and free jazz-esque voyages. hayashi has been making a name for himself as a formidable studio talent, and on “asylum” he offers some of his finest work to date. “agent dissolving device” welds louche narration, kaleidoscopic atmospheres and an energized girl-group hook to an earworm groove. an invaluable tool for adventurous djs, “so wrong it’s right” doesn’t begin to describe it. meanwhile, the b-side is given over to hayashi’s more sombre, quasi-chamber music leanings. “burrow” and “the old man” both use wheezing, wandering piano figures to articulate a mournful, bleary-eyed beauty that seems to flicker in the shadows of the a-side’s extroversion.

hinter dem projekt xander harris verbirgt sich justin sweatt aus austin, tx. er bezeichnet seine musik als dunkel gefärbten snythie-pop. nach seinem debüt urban gothic erscheint sein zweites album nun bei rock action, dem label der musiker von mogwai. folgende assoziationen tauchen in besprechungen zu seiner musik immer wieder auf: der soundtrack zu dem spielfilm drive, der soundtrack zu assault on precinct 13 von john carpenter, daft punk, die interessanten schaffens-phasen von künstlern wie tangerine dream oder kraftwerk. california chrome jedenfalls wagt den spagat zwischen atmosphärischen synthiesoundscapes und rhythmischen knallern wie etwa dem track buckle bunny. seine musik ist instrumental realisiert und überzeugt bei titeln wie basilisk stare auch mit wunderbaren melodien, die sich für eine nachtfahrt auf autobahnen ideal als soundtrack anbieten. die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive downloadcode.

ital & halal return to lovers rock with * tower b*, an ep of enigmatic techno explorations. * shenzhen river* opens: an ominous, questing acid line stretches its tendrils around nocturnal atmospheres. * from the brink* counters with glints of warm melody. on side b, the title track unfurls with slithering percussion and a menacing drone. ambient closer * where exactly i am* picks up the pieces, lost voices traveling across the stereo field, searching for answers through an endless pale haze.

from a live broadcast recorded at rock in rio 2, maracana stadium, rio de janeiro, brazil, 18th january 1991

the main ingredient is the second album by pete rock & cl smooth, originally released in 1994. characterized by sultry soul and jazz samples, the album saw a more polished sound than the duo’s debut “mecca & the soul brother” movlp1633, building on the praise that they had already garnered. the main ingredient is notable for its snappy, crispy drums and extensive use of vocal scratches. it contains some of the duo’s best known work, in the form of tracks such as the upbeat “in the house”, and the catchy “sun won’t come out”, which features a lush vocal sample from the song of the same name by harvey scales.

lovers rock recordings celebrates its tenth release with another lush compilation featuring tracks by three core members of the lr family and newcomer gunnar haslam. opener “vacation” by ital sees the label boss crafting a supple dj weapon out of a lysergic sonic ecosystem. the rapidly-maturing dj wey returns to the fold under his dj python alias with “amazonia,” an ambient bomb that allows a deceptively simple hook to lilt across a thumping reggaeton rhythm. gunnar haslam makes his lr debut with “vector no campo,” blending modular acid and perfectly crunched electro drums. finally sleeper cell close out with the shimmering, haunting “v.” the first lr release of 2016, lr no.10 exemplifies the label’s ethos and sound while pointing to the future, with eps by ital & halal, yoshinori hayashi and others slated for later in the year.

fresh blood on robsoul and more sunshine fueled house for the summer floors from rising stars iban montoro and jazzman wax. its been a busy year for the duo, who have not only launched their own moodyhouse recordings label, but also completed and signed their debut album to mark farina’s great lakes audio imprint. an ep for kerri chandler’s madhouse records and projects in the works with barbara tucker and joi cardwell are all setting 2016 up to be a busy and bumper year for the boys from barcelona. their rock skate ep for robsoul is a perfect snapshot of the sample-heavy feel good-vibe vibe that the boys present in their own performances. four block rocking cuts that will have us grooving, grinding and rolling. so lace up and get dancing.

classic hip hop album, 180gr audiophile pressing

12 track album from horace andy, wayne jarrett & the wailers released by dub store records.

the hip house boom was in full effect, thanks to tyree coopers efforts, and trax responded with this double-header. power move is straight up hip hop, but its the flip, producer by trax regular lidell townsell, i ll make you dance that does the business here. kool rock steady, also known as edward rudolph, had serious credentials for an mc, being cousin of one africa bambaataa. this release is also notable for yet another misspelling of lidell townsell s christian name (lydell, since you ask).

ltd repress .. you are not supposed to know that, but the rumour mill is blowing in the wind: to know from hearsay famous dj rainer trueby teaming up with danilo from motor city drum ensemble (aka inverse cinematics) to launch the rainer trueby project. these tracks are more an edit thing, not supposed for official release. both edits are already circulating, and a very limited vinyl seems overdue. a tasty taster by those nice guys!

following last years meditative mirage ep and the stunning * beat 13* on lovers rock no. 6, earthen sea returns to lr with his debut lp ink. his heaviest and most ambitious work to date, ink is a work of hypnotic, monastic beauty. over the last ten years, earthen sea, aka jacob long, has been developing a sound world all his own, built on a foundation of vaporous grey-black drones and pulsing kick drums. an impressionistic dream-scape of american life, ink journeys between the eerily vacant “entrance” to the feverish “stateless” and the shimmering perfection of “all men know the truth.” swaths of violent, glacial noise collide with lost voices transmitted through the ether, framed between moments of transcendent clarity. following an extended three song suite, closing track * blues in black ink* rides a gently falling piano melody into a finale that is as infused with political rage as it is with private melancholy. with ink, earthen sea arrives fully formed, an artist in utter command of his craft.

after releasing countless collectable and in-demand 7in singles and making a name for themselves in the contemporary raw funk and soul scene, the soul surfers drop their debut album soul rock, a magnum opus of raw, gritty soul and greasy funk featuring eminent guests from the aforementioned scene that birthed their sound. soul crooners myron & e break out of their smooth vocal personas and deliver a decidedly more stripped down and visceral performance in the lead-off single you can run (but you cant hide) from my love that also promises to be a dance floor filler. co-collaborators jj whitefield from the poets of rhythm and malcom catto of the heliocentrics add their signature touch on two of the albums heavier cuts raw and stop fooling around. label-mate, multi-instrumentalist and studio genius shawn lee lends his vocal, guitar and mixing board talents to time is a gun while noted producer didier from the soul investigators gets in on the mix, vibes, and percussion on the heavy slow-burner astra. smoove & turrell round out the album with the blue-eyed soul stomper straight up

sleeper cell is the new collaboration between earthen sea and lovers rock label head ital. recorded over three days and nights in a dark ny winter, * quality of life* reflects a declining america in a winter of its own. corroded dub atmospheres, haunting melodies, subdued flashes of tenderness and occasional searing noise swim together like murky oil in a puddle of grimy water on the side of the road. opening with the entrancing * initiate* , * sleeper cell* welcome the listener into their world, where menacing whispers dance and echo around synth swells and a poignant lead melody. from there, the duo journey through a crumbling and eerily spacious sound world.
