mehr als zweieinhalb jahre liegen zwischen der letzten gro?tat (dark angel) und dem nun endlich vorliegenden neuen werk des legend?ren kieler sextetts. f?r eine so leidenschaftliche band keine frage: am ende des tages muss eine platte her, die alles vorherige m?glichst nochmals eindrucksvoll in den schatten stellt. in anbetracht von genre klassikern wie 777 bloodrock oder german angst kein leichtes unterfangen. und doch gegl?ckt: colossus sollte als das ultimative smoke blow album in die geschichte eingehen.

blue, thats the colour of the new and beautiful oblack vinyl, and this is not just a coincidence. los pastores, the owners of this consolidated and growing label, are the ones in charge of the fourteenth release of one of the most significant underground music series in the world. smoke game ep is no joke: it is snna and arauz at their best. its not just a good kick and a rhythm, all the content is soaked in a tasty, concentrated balearic sauce.

for some grungy vocal house music with a touch of chicago percussion and a healthy splash of the indie-synth wave that came crashing over electronic music in the late 2000s, scissor & thread s black light smoke might be 2014 s answer to danton eeprom circa 2009. we say danton eeprom, as the voice on the b2, -screws in my head-, has a similar tone and enunciation of the frenchman, or are we getting mixed up with mathew dear? the title-track, -firefly-, brings back memories of azari & iii s debut ep only with druggy vocals coming from what could be the basement of a dfa rave in new york, while -morning comes- borrows some cowbells from the rapture and sultry french inspirations from jane birken. -black bricks- then provides some slo-mo, lo-fi phase filtered house - and one hell of a bassline. alternative electronics for the indie lover

so here i am, happily an album older, introducing the first of adamants remix packages. since the whole project was, generally speaking, a personal affair and a lot of the album was not necessarily club-ready (does that even make sense?), we invited our friends on board to do the dirty deeds for me and rework my sounds into something normal people can dance to. first up are mind against.

those who know the respected irish producer john daly for his bubbly, melodically nuanced house and techno tracks may get thrown off balance by his latest work under the smoke clears handle. while his 2011 release for further, sea level, hinted at his fondness for manuel göttsching/klaus schulze-like kosmische ambience, on listen daly veers off into more introverted and arcane abstraction terrain. the title track kicks off the album on a decidedly downtempo, contemplative note while maintaining dalys knack for understatedly beautiful melodies. it sounds like the best song morr music never released.

ghost culture emerges from the london fog. finely crafted, delicate songwriting through the mirror of dusty, analogue electronica yet with the ever present pulse of detroit techno in the distance, in a style that is truly his own. ghost culture will soon be releasing music through erol alkans phantasy label, where he joins a growing roster of individualist minds and free musical spirits.

in september 2013 mos ferry presents the fourth album smoke by dapayk & padberg. after their last album sweet nothings on stil vor talent in 2012 with its summery-funky sound the duo is now opening the door to a gloomy-melancholic world. dapayk & padberg consciously turn their back on the dancefloor and abandon the formerly typical balancing act between club sound and listening electronica. even though the a side of the present single is certainly made for the djs, it shall be the sole exception to their current creative path. the down-tempo version of smoke on the b side already reveals the new dapayk & padberg uneasy listening mixture.

following on from the release of david ks well-received sneakers & playground ep, the unnerving pairing of nico & pherox (aka tim querengaesser) return with a record that is veiled by in a dark and mysterious shroud. nico (previously known as verena) is a young and fresh female artist, influenced from an early age by the classical work of her father (who worked as a music composer), whilst pherox is a more familiar presence in todays deep clubbing landscape, having released on mupa, catenaccio, dumb unit, stock5 and his very own label, slash. on this ep, the pair explore a broad palette of sounds, taking in italian horror film-esque chords, chopped and screwed vocal samples, rolling basslines, soothsaying vocals, drawn out fog horn stabs. this is deep music, flavoured by the nocturnal, tinted by the eighties, and ultimately full of originality.

poll021 is the third vinyl project on the label from the big brother production trio and is one not to miss. somewhat based on the underground sound of milan, leo mas and friends have crafted a strong tech house project aimed at the dance floor with vocal snippets and processed vocal fx which generate a solid and deep groove. with house music in mind and a funked up baseline the project evolves into a tech driven journey into the unique sound from this three producers. on the flip side the boys have twisted up a remix version taking a deep edge of the actual original. a pure and deep baseline flows with minimal and solid drum programming.
