the reveries begin with a simple electrical hum Ð a starting signal for the appearance of a vibrant array of sound, shifting before us in seemingly random motion. before we know it, all those pulsating melodies, razor-cut hifi-house beats and drunken robot jazz ensembles start forming into patterns, secretly & perfectly designed by one art alfie. a long time operator in stockholmÕs small but insistent underground music scene, oscar wedr�n broke through internationally in 2012 with the karlovak project, founded with on-off studio and dj partner rudolf nordstr�m, a.k.a. mr. tophat. the duoÕs inexplicably fresh takes on classic dance music tropes is as much a result of a brilliantly odd pairing of personalities as of a defined concept and a precise method in searching for the perfect house groove. while writing reveries of, released early spring 2017 through studio barnhus, art alfie freed himself of all conceptual footholds, delving instead deep into his archives of old and new memories and feels, working with improptu field recordings and emotionally-guided sampling processes. he came back with an intricate and personal debut album and he didnÕt lose his groove on the way.

der londoner dubstep-pionier und hotflush-labelbetreiber scuba aka paul rose beweist seine einzigartigkeit mit einem 75-min�tigen fabric-set aus 42(!) �ber- und nacheinander gelegten tracks. unterschiedliche k�nstler wie pearson sound und patrick cowley, donato dozzy und midland treffen in einer d�ster-verf�hrerischen atmosph�re aufeinander, so dass man sich zwischen pumpendem lo-fi techno und subsonischen b�ssen im rave-kosmos verliert.

it was fitting that brazilian-born, austria-based artist joyce muniz broke through in an era characterised by the cross-pollination and globalisation of music. initially combining the sounds and rhythms of her home country with contemporary european electronic sounds, she later morphed into a house / techno producer of the highest calibre. along the way she worked with the likes of maya jane coles and viennese legends kruder & dorfmeister and released on influential imprints like 2020 vision and shir khanÕs exploited. itÕs the latter which has been her main platform for releasing music since 2011 and where she now unleashes her full-length debut album, made in vienna.

disco-phantasien, dunkles kabarett, die kl�nge des klassischen house und der elektronica, die freude und das leid des puren pop: der titel des albums stammt von einem irischen volkslied, das durch the dubliners popul�r gemacht und von ihrem vater gesungen wurde. ÒitÕs me and my rhythm. itÕs very simple, really - but very complicated.

timeless, florian pellissier quintet journey through jazz from paris to new york. a rule of the game is to find the flavor of new yorkers groups from the 60s to mix with european musicians of the time. organic, inspired, it would take ten years of concerts and two albums to reach the goal: iches bleue promises to be a gateway album, a hidden passageway between eras, a scientific miracle. a sax, trumpet, piano, bass and drums, no artifice, a simple sound

good price for good music! what do you do when a live project exceeds its own ambitions? just keep doing the wonderful concerts and eventually head to the studio. sounds simple and conclusive. in the case of karocel, that was exactly how they went about it and surprisingly, all six band members made it happen. though the four marbert rocels, mathias kaden and michael-mitchi-nagler have known each other from their hometown along the gera-jena-erfurt corridor, and the karocel live shows have been well received: an album is an entirely different beast.

andy vazs straight vacationing, his first full-length artist album, since the 2006 release of repetitive moments last forever, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but theyll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring house music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call house. straight vacationing dives into the genre in all its rich variety: from deep melodic, early chicago influenced acid house, jacking-jedi mind tricks to disco-type grooves and last but not least excursions into bizzaro world, with a vaz typical almost psychedelic experimental-edged sound, its all there.

the ever on point citrus recordings is stepping up for its 5th artist lp. after having released the debut albums of mindscape & jade wich all went on for critical acclaim its time for citrus to get ready for its 3rd artist album. this time its time for the debut album of fourward! hailing straight from lower austria the four men collective fourward started out producing music in early 2007. the boys knew each other for quite a while and shared the love and passion for drumandbass music. for them it was always a main issue not to stick to any particular tiny subgenre only, but to develop a sound of their own. all members have different musical backgrounds which fit together perfectly and provide a great studio vibe. days went by and the boys finished a couple of tunes properly and it wasnt long until austrian drumandbass producer duo body&soul showed interest in their works. also international artists like bbcs very own crissy criss began to support their music giving them airplay on his radio show. as a result of their effort fourward has released quality tunes on labels like subsonik sound, planet funk and fokuz. the year 2010 they experienced the so called breakthrough with releases on nasca recordings and fokuz followed by an epic 12inch for the legendary label virus recordings! the guys definitely didnt stop there and being on the road now broadened their horizon even further. resulting in a series of tunes perfectly fitting together in this cd. diversity and musicallity are keywords for this album. listen from low blow to you and me, quality drum n bass!!

dave.i.d likes to think for himself. always has done. its the reason why his debut album didnt go quite according to his initial plan. he was going to make, to use his own words, >something pretty simple and straightforward<. but then he noticed lots of his friends were discovering new beliefs. some even tried to convert him. >im very open-minded to different beliefs, but i question and see things slightly differently,< he says. without necessarily wanting to, he found himself reflecting on existential questions. >the album is a record of the time that it was made, and thats what was going on in my life at the time. i didnt necessarily want to make the debut album like that. i felt i had to make it<. the cerebral inspiration catapulted him into musics outer rim. he beamed back a dark, dense sometimes confrontational sound, but ultimately compelling sound. but, in the end, it turned out to be a happy accident because the resulting record, called >response< appropriately enough, is mind-bendingly inventive, brilliantly off-kilter and constantly surprising. crucially, the tough sonics are paired with killer melodies: this is deep, heavy music you can hum. the records he was listening to while making >response< help make sense of his singular sound

in the impressive flow of new talent in 2011 on fokuz recordings we already had the pleasure to present the sound of brother, command strange and intelligent manners among others. the next flavour of the funky liquid melting pot called fokuz recordings goes by the name donnie dubson. berlin based irishman donnie o sullivan aka donnie dubson started releasing his funky rollers on have a break and influenza media and already featured on fokuz on the chronicles of the deep lp together with stunna back in 2007. the grapefruit / battlecat release on influenza media in 2009 got him a lot of attention and is still heard in dj sets today. now its 2011 and fokuz presents the beautiful debut album of donnie dubson! his sound can be described as refreshing and original liquid drum n bass with a touch of the well known atmospheric drum n bass vibes from the mid 0s. his basslines are the unique sellingpoint as well as his ability to create an organic feel in the music thats only done by the few who truly understand what liquid drum n bass is all about. pleasuring both critical listeners and the dancefloor audience this album is a perfect overview of the sound fokuz stands for. a great example of how music can be time-less in this decade of fast moving consumer goods.

have you ever been >motorcitysouled<? matthias vogt and christian >c-rock< rindermann form the deephouse syndicate motorcitysoul. after their debut (did you expect it? / infracom 2004), their mix-cd (back up / infracom 2007), and their last studio album (technique / simple 2008) the two djs and producers present their first selection of remixes that have been released between 2004 and 2010. the >remix< is one of their favourite dishes so its no wonder that more than 30 artists or labels have asked for a motorcitysoul remix treatment since the duo joined forces in 2004. all of their remixes have been regarded as high quality by the media and djs worldwide. so far artists like chez damier, ian pooley, abdullah ibrahim, brett johnson, solomun & stimming, and johannes heil have ordered the extra motorcitysoul polish. motorcitysoul remixes have found their way to labels like cocoon, dessous, freerange, liebedetail and junior boys own/defected. creating a remix is a versatile production practice built around various philosophies - what is the remix meant for? how should it sound? should it be an addition for the club heads or a musical adventure that takes the listener on a journey? every motorcitysoul remix has its own vibe and is meant to respect the idea behind the original track. motorcitysoul merge their trademark sounds and styles with the original track. vogt and rindermann communicate in a musical way with the original artist.

tom thiels self titled debut album out now!!! wide melody lines, soft, complex beats or direct, simple beats: the tracks speak a timeless language and thus represent the most modern side of electronic music. a musical director and his audio cinema, way beyond hollywood or worse - new german cinema.

whats the point of a concept album when no one hears the concept in it? maybe that it sets a boundary, forcing mr artist to go even deeper into the fewer possibilities left. creativity by limitation and all thatÉ well spare you further theorizing. >fever<, the third longplayer by dutch low end scientist 2562, then, is his disco album: a thorough reinterpretation of underground disco music from the mid seventies to the early eighties, with his own birthyear 1979 as the gravitational point. all based on one simple rule: every single sound, from the smallest background shiver to the most obese sub bass, originates from a disco record Ð no additional synthesizers, drumcomputers or other samplesources involved. disco-edits, italo homages or filtered loops then? hardly. this is genuinely new and retro-free music that respectfully flips its sources so hard even the biggest paradise garage connaisseurs wont recognize what just hit them. or in the words of musical allies martyn and pinch, who independently drew the same conclusion: >sorry, but i dont hear that whole disco story in there. this simply sounds like you.< completely failed as a concept album, then Ð and all the better for it.

>patio de juegos<, which translates as >playground<, is a wonderful multi-genre journey through the mind of an artist who is both on top of his game, and on the rise towards the stars. lashings of his ever-present south american heritage infuse with incredibly intricate and perfectly simple house structures that give the whole album its almost >child at play< ethos that is rarely found in electronic music. future club hits such as >wanna be<, with its nod to the historical upbeat lineage of house music, and >all the girls<, with its chugging rhythm, trickling piano loops and erotic vocals sit effortlessly alongside more experimental and jazz inspired tracks such as the explorative >still here<. another fine example is >sun<, with its deep bass line punctuated with the sun-soaked synths and summer high-hats that export listeners away to a warm utopia. guti produces a number of tracks with high profile artists from both within and outside the dj fraternity - a sign of his increasing popularity within electronica, and also his innate ability to collaborate with more mainstream artists.

planet mu release his newly finished debut album new folder. experimenting with off kilter micro house and druggy wonk, linas gives us a simple beat around which he flips deceptively simple synthline progressions which grow into monolithic riffs. at the crux of nu disco, dubstep and techno, and using local vocal talent, linas has a truly forward looking european sound.

with the influence of the experimental duo minit, jasmina maschina creates her own surprising and pucker sound. an absolutely new experience of simple slowly strummed affairs of guitar chimes, keyboard chords and folk elements.
