index marcel fengler continues with its second installment, introducing an expertly produced ep from respected long-running artist echoplex. since 2000 echoplex, the polish born peter sliwinski, has released truly pioneering, atmospheric and soulful techno, appearing on his own soleil label, or synewave amongst many others. this triumphant return to the limelight comes in the form of three stand out tracks.

italian producer domenico camarilla has hit a rich vein of form under the jose manuel guise of late, supplementing output on his own black pepper label with feted appearances for tusk wax, is it balearic?, lectric sands and citizen kanes disques sinthomme. given his profile, a union with the soft rocks affiliated kinfolk label makes utmost sense and jose manuel fans will find much to enjoy about ajna. both the title track and *the clear after the storm* are steeped in eastern mysticism and feature heavy percussion from the man manuel, whilst the accompanying soft rocks remix will appeal to fans of rabih beainis *tanki tanki* edit.

4 ... yes 4 new instalments of the legendary disco powerplay series from soft rocks are here. as usual the selections vary from the straight up to stadium rock via africa and a mad doctors lab & more in between and are already receiving heavy dj play from the likes of tim sweeney to andrew weatherall and many others. buy all four 12 inchess and you get a giant *stick it together yourself* picture of the soft rocks on a beano to clacton this summer ... lovely.

the long awaited follow up to the critically acclaimed *a fistful of dubplates* (zoom records) which featured dj harvey and was championed by the likes of françois kevorkian, ashley beedle, dimitri from paris and david morales to name but a few. this time dub versions of four double yellow tracks from their recently released album *life in the slow lane*.

kinfolk head to philly for kinfolk004, welcoming committed vinyl rummager and top notch dj billy werner into the fold. this 10 inch is the apparent end product of that rare occurrence where budding producer sends label unsigned tracks that are actually decent. *kick & flutter* is a blinky blue sunrise of a tune, innocent, euphoric and, dare we say, totally balearic... not retro but timeless. *where the sea meets the stones* treads a similar line but with a more incessant acidic undertone. both perfect for chasing sunrises and sunsets... as is traditional you get a soft rocks remix to boot... murmured voices, gentle pulses and psychedelic repetition. did any of the original make it in there? just relax and enjoy it...

gleich der opener the sun never sets around here zeigt, wo die reise hingeht. leichte, unscheinbare töne entwicklen sich zu einem wohlbekannten wall of sound aus gitarren und handclaps. die wundervollen melodien und harmonien der folgenden songs klingen wie eine indie pop-fusion aus elo und den everly brothers

matt tolfrey drops the second single from his word of mouth ep this via his leftroom imprint, opting for the infectious groove of encarta and pulling in marco bernardi and dj sprinkles on remix duties

the soft rocks collective feature twice on the upstart black rox label with two heavily tribal remixes for a so far unknown artist. the soft rocks take on *filaw* is wrapped in horns and jungle sounds - not too far off a 1970s brian jackson and gil scott heron collaboration. on the flip is a possible talking heads reference in *once in a life time*, which gathers mesmeric african drums and percussion, grooving in harmony to ritualistic chant. a mohican david byrne perhaps?

pumping raw techno madness

long time disco sorcerer ray mang has taken mirador de las estrellas to a beautiful place, utilizing the steal drum as a hypnotic hook and editing jorge socarras memorable spanish vocals down to an effective sigh. if there ever a track for your indian summer, this is it. on the flipside, the boys from cage & aviary sprawl out the original extended version of their tough and dubby bonus beats (this bomb is exclusive to this vinyl release). if you know whats best, youll not sleep on this one there is nothing more pleasing than completing a set.

following last years acclaimed curse of soft rocks album, were invited to revisit said masterpiece from an alternative entry — a robust compilation of remixes. each track is wildly re-contextualized leaving us with a beautifully obtuse yet complimentary rendering. personnel employed vary in style and technique drastically, but such is the ethos of soft rocks, and furthermore the esp institute. at the end of the day, we implore you to shut up and listen. on this 12inch (the second of 3 surrounding the revenge of soft rocks remix album) esp mainstays cos/mes deliver a deep and sensual yet sinister take on little lights, and side b reveals an upbeat dubbed out version of wicker man by zurichs own lexx (running back, permanent vacation, leng) good lord this is quite a piece of wax!

as we all know, there is a first time for everything. in this case, its even a debut for both: the tensnake co-run label mirau and iron curtis.

souvenir presents ruede hagelsteins second single release >berlin< off last years debut album >soft pack< alongside his band the noblettes. last time round it was >a priori< with a bunch of remixes, and here >berlin< is featured in its original version.

comes as limited white vinyl.
james creed is a family member in the truest sense and has been part of the big wheel for a while now, not only is he a hardworking crew member but also a very talented producer in his own right. kls014 is the debut ep from james and we are proud to introduce the world to this unique music maker.
the soft parade comes in the form of two original tracks from james, the decision was taken to leave out the possibility of all remixes from the release and let the two pieces of music shine for themselves.

room 315 step up to the fledgling kinfolk imprint for three tasty psyche-edit numbers, opener >the eon men< sets the standard with its robust bass pulse driving a slow beat forward on a flurry of digitised synth solo and live guitar action, whilst >night on the shore< begins as a sinister number with lurching bass, but soon opens itself up with its solitary guitar line and floating synth pads which recall the end credits to an 80s thriller, all driven along with minimal 808 percussion. on the flip, edit masters soft rocks provide their own version of >the eon men<, taking the grizzled quality of the original and creating their own minimal wave inspired reworking, with a brittle bassline joined by shady echoes of dub music in its cavernous backdrop and savage low end.

here at spectrum spools, one of the many missions is to make sure great, under-documented, and limited offerings get a chance to see a wider release. no ufos debut cassette, >soft coast< (2010, nice up intl), is surely no exception.

hot off the heals of their debut >we hunt buffalo now<, the soft rocks gang dishes out >magic milk<, and utterly sleazy weekend dancefloor monster serving as the second single in the series surrounding their imminent debut album, >the curse of soft rocks<. guest vocals are once again provided by san francisco post-punk hero jorge socarras (vocalist of indoor life and songwriter for patrick cowley). remix duties on side-b are provided this time by washington dcs rising stars the beautiful swimmers. their mid-tempo coconut dub takes the percussive nuances that are deep in the original and made them centerpiece, surrounding it all with loose house instrumentation that oddly achieves a tropical vibe.

after years, this vinyl-wielding 4-piece originating from brighton — the one and only soft rocks — have finally committed their collective wit to a slew of original tunes. >we hunt buffalo now< is a punky dub monster serving as the first single in a series surrounding their = imminent debut album, >the curse of soft rocks<. in an age where any laptop-savvy poseur can upload their bland nu-disco or faux-chi-house directly to the cesspool of digitally downloadable fodder, it is more than refreshing to hear this cheeky bunch blending a mixed bag of instrumentation and obscure influences so recklessly. guest vocals are provided by san francisco post-punk hero jorge socarras (vocalist of indoor life and songwriter for patrick cowley). in case that wasnt enough, flip her over for the genius remix by andrew weatherall, a bonafide glam stomper that slaps you across the face with a fuzzy bassline and greaseball guitar chords. pure class.

the notorious guillaume & the coutu dumonts makes a triumphant return to circus company after last year’s critically acclaimed album, breaking the fourth wall, with 3 deeper than deep (s)explosions sure to become omnipresent fixtures in the sets of damn near any dj with even a shred of good sense in the months to come. >ubiquitous gaze< gets the ball rolling in classic coutu dumont style with a rollicking sea of percussion thankfully populated with a few desert islands of respite in the form of a gorgeously lush string and piano arrangement and the soft meandering monologue of a certain well known musician discussing his craft. b side leader >youre the one< comes on strong with a bouncing d-town bassline and soft stabbing chords that would make kenny larkin proud before rolling out a high stepping lead organ and swinging vocal chops before tying the whole funky mess together with one of his trademark charging conga lines. known for his unbound generosity and proving it here once again, a beatless stringapella of >ubiquitous gaze< closes out the flip in fine style for those inclined to ride this one into a full epic journey territory. yet more proof, as if any were needed, of guillaumes place at the very top of the mountain called house

before the renaissance of vocals in club music starts to get out of hand, a few blueprints are being drawn up: standards that the brilliance of future vocal track producers can be measured against. the greek producer mr. statik, has put together three such tracks for his first bpitch control release. three emotional tracks which really make you want to get dressed up each time you listen in order to properly revel in their sophistication.

soft machine released their third album, surprisingly called >third< in 1970. it is a double album with each side of the vinyl consisting of a single long composition.
pressed on 180 gram audiophile vinyl, comes in gatefold cover.

called the italian sucessor of early maw nicholas continues his edit journey on his no more hits label.
side a - 1 techy floating key, housey beats with, creates moody atmosphere though vocal chop is smoothly working.
- 2 simple but effective minimal house groove, repetitive key riff with female vocal.
side b - 1 funky synth bass goes nicely with dreamy soft keys & male vocal. it reflect the title >sunshine and rain< atmosphere ...
- 2 slow house with the tough kick sound, bougie bass, vibraphone with japanese female vocal work along >l.a. nights< chorus hook.
