volkan ak&#305,n is a fresh name in the scene that already buzzed some radars worldwide and succeeded in impressing and released his music in well established imprints like sammy dee’s ultrastrech where he had his brilliant debut with a villalobos remix. with “sinister” he skims away from his usual stripped down minimalistic grooves and presents us two tracks of lush, intimate works of deep textures, analog machine love-making noises and intricate drum arrangements with very personal tones. and while the a side “sinister” keeps us on edge with a virtually consistent momentum of suspense and a very conveniently sinister mood, the flipside “atest” takes us on a ride between the high skies and the deep seas, on a seamlessly neverending loop of peaceful pads and very addicting dreamy tones. this very special limited release comes in a unusual but deliciously collectible transparent yellow 10” vinyl with a remarkable and equally sinister painting by new york-based artist emily marchesiello, art director and co-founder of the galerie project. she specializes in fantasy animal portraiture art, via ink, water color and oil paint. project london

"you wake from sleep, the door closes by itself and the walls run with slime and rain. a shadow moves, almost familiar, welcoming and simultaniously intimidating. the candle flickers and snuffs out. a noise. your torch is dying. something takes your hand. long fingernails and old skin. you mark the floor, chant the incantation. together. in the first of our split series we present two modern artists who’s imaginations know no limit. abstract drones, anchient machinery, neon cities within the shadow of the overfiend. heading up side a is the legendary cristoph de babalon, whose work in the late 90s on digital hardcore and his own cfet proved to be some of the most unique and timeless of the period. seperated by european boarders, the reigns are taken by triames, cutting the rhythms to explore techno as a more abstract concept, beautifully detailed work in between lustmord and emptyset. giallo disco is proud to present ‘invocation of the demon twin vol. 1&#8242; possibly the most sinister and atmospheric release to date, and also one of our most special. art by eric lee."

since 2010, jackie house aka jacob sperber has been driving the a&r side of the san francisco dance-music troupe running the hnytrx label and producing remixes with other members under the honey name. putting label duties on hold in 2013 sperber cocooned into his music studio, entering as a brave brunette and exiting as an ambitious blonde. * stydive * is jackie s debut to wax and has as much house-party in it as it does warehouse 4am. with a vocal sample nod to punk s past, * stydive* pogo dances to dusty and stuttering live/analog drum rhythms and skips along a rude and infectious bass-line. bound to find lovers of all persuasions for its dub-esque qualities, instantly recognizable hook, and open relationship with house music, this tune begged to have it s own side. that said, there is always room for some matrixxman who takes stydive to a strobe lit south of market darkroom in his remix on the b. spurting erotic lazers around a cavernous kick, this tune finishes off even the most experienced edger.

uk techno founders b12 return! the duos history famously started in the early 90s with their music appearing under a plethora of monikers under the b12 records umbrella - 12 inch vinyl with notorious cryptic messages engraved in the run-out grooves, before being collected into album form and release on warp. after a hiatus in the late 90s, the pair resurfaced briefly for some live shows, a flurry of hugely sought-after 12 inches and a 7-part cd anthology. they then abruptly disappeared again - this is their first appearance in 5 years, fittingly on glaswegian imprint soma. (their seminal warp records album was named electro soma...is there a connection?)

constantly turning around itself, the winding melody of vertere turns outward and inward at the same time, bringing the listener on a journey outward while mirroring a simultaneous labyrinthine journey inward. like the word itself, vertere, with its roots in the latin word verto (which itself takes its roots in the earlier sanskrit word, vartayati) it signifies the very nature of change itself. it means both to turn and reflect inward and yet also move forward — a call to action for setting in motion new things. a paradox at first glance but also perhaps a surprisingly accurate description of the destructive and reconstructive nature of creation. an apt metaphor for this bright new collaboration between established life and death artists mind against and the new artist project of federico maccherone, aka somne. on remix duties, when you have an artist of the caliber of tobias freund, you don t need to ask for anything more and with his outstanding remix of vertere he very clearly shows why. this long time mainstay of the electronic music scene has managed to stay not just relevant but on the cutting edge longer than most with respected releases on some of the most seminal imprints to be putting out music in the world of underground dance music. with vertere he takes what s already top quality material and somehow manages to turn it inward and in his own unique way elevate it to another level entirely. with a relentless beat and a sonic force that is hard to describe with mere words the tobias. remix of vertere comes out of the gate like a runaway machine rapturously drunk on its own self awareness. it marches ever forward, full of fervor, and will surely be driving dance floors both large and small to the euphoric edge of the ecstatic state.

charolastras are a group of experimental electronic musicians with a keen interest in ancient rituals involving dance. in many cultures from the past, music and dance were closely tied with shamanism, spirituality and even combat. these traditions continue today in some parts of the world where music isnt solely for entertainment, as is often the case in our modern western society. the group s goal is to spread a message of peace and unity with their music. this intention is evident in the blissful ethereal textures used in their mellifluous productions. but their sound can also have a harder edge that evokes conflict, not calm. this is all by design because, as charolastras like to point out, sometimes you have to fight for peace .

founded way back in 91, z records have since amassed a lauded and plentiful collection of singles, albums and compilations. run by dave lee aka joey negro, the label has enjoyed success through his unique ability to foster the principles of underground dance music whilst also remaining mindful of commercial appeal. through various compilations, mr lee has consistently delved deep into the heart of a specific genre or era and selecting a lesser-known series of tracks that give a real insight into the spirit and energy that made that point in time special. whether it’s been gogo, brit funk, boogie, italo house or straight up disco, he has mined deep into his extensive bank of influences and also enlisted the help of some of his most clued-up comrades in offering some unforgettable collections of classics. next up - he pulls together a collection of his favourite moments across a definitive decade for house and garage: the 90’s.

janis is hell of a frankfurter. born and raised that is. his bold imprint -house is ok-,being run with two friends was started 1 year before -smile for a while-, so there was surely some kind of inspiration coming from that end.
