manic street preachers originally gained a loyal following and cult status with their combination of androgynous glam punk imagery, outspoken invective and songs about alienation, boredom and despair. the bands later albums retained a leftist politicization and intellectual lyrical style, while adopting a broader alternative rock sound, especially after the mysterious disappearance of lyricist and rhythm guitarist richey edwards in 1995. >everything must go< is the manics fourth album and was released in 1996, now back on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

with the first single release of beijing rock, paul brcic (paul brtschitsch) brings a driving yet emotional production into the world of electronic sounds. an unmistakable, pulsating beat reminiscent of detroit-techno, smooth percussion, and a catchy bass line make up the songs foundation, immediately casting a bewitching spell and leaving no room for detours. carefully arranged samples from the 40s mould the centrepiece of the club bangers and move in perfect harmony with the full synth and fx sounds. without a doubt, paul brcic sets off a multifaceted sound explosion with a first look at the album beijing rock, scheduled for release in autumn 2012, always keeping one eye on production-technical details and the other on organic sound. beijing rock immediately invades the senses from the first measure, taking you along a journey outside of the clubs of this world and catapulting you just as quickly back to the sweat-inducing, wild nights. absolutely magnificent - paul brcic in his purest form. the b-side acid & camambert clatters as if on rails through the fields of sound and sets off one adrenaline rush after another with its clear basslines and consistently rising networks of beats. exquisite superstructures and effect dramaturgy breathe life into acid & camambert with an unbelievable energy and nearly acidic characteristics.

gold panda war einer der newcomer im letzten jahr und weltweit auf jeder bestenliste dabei. gold pandas musik mag als ein scherbenhaufen aus knapp beschnittenen minisamples beginnen, aber was der junge londoner daraus zusammenkittet, ist alles andere als chaotisch und abweisend. Über lebendig pulsierenden beats verströmen wortlose songs wie you oder snow & taxis schimmer-charme en masse.

with two of the alan parsons projects best songs, the lovely ballad >time< and the wavy-sounding >games people play<, >the turn of a friendly card< remains one of this groups most enjoyable albums. parsons idea, the subject of the albums six tracks, centers around the age-old temptation of gambling and its stranglehold on the human psyche.

for their sixth release, lets play house has headed down under to scoop up australias fantastic man, a second identity of dj/producer mic newman, with which the melbourne-based artist explores—and exposes—another side of his musical and stylistic skills. and the four original songs on the its essential ep most definitely mark a bit of a departure from newmans trademark sounds: he has exchanged the thumping, peak-hour, hands-in-the-air chaos and messiness of hits like 2009s >sizzled sally< for a more refined and subtle breed of deep house.

die italienische kultgruppe kirlian camera kehrt mit einer epischen 6-song-ep zurück. immortal enthält eine beeindruckende neubearbeitung eines der beliebtesten stücke des letzten albums, nightglory , plus vier unveröffentlichte songs und einen club-kompatiblen remix des titeltracks von der italo-kanadischen band blank.

mit >life is full of possibities< von 2001 wurde dntel zu einer der wichtigsten figuren der glitch-szene, die der elektronischen musik eine neue dynamik und komplexität verlieh. unvergessliche songs wie >anywhere anyone< verschafften ihm eine treue fan-schar. seit dieser zeit sinnierte dntel, der mit bürgerlichem namen jimmy tamborello heißt, in zahllosen veröffentlichungen gefühlswelten und stimmungen nach. als teil von figurine entwickelte er einen mal anmutig-bezaubernden, mal irrwitzig-albernen techno-pop-sound. mit ben gibbard von death cab for cutie gründete er postal service, deren nummer such great heights wurde vom rolling stone unter die hundert wichtigsten songs des vergangenen jahrzehnts gewählt. dass tamborello als einziger electronic-act des nirvana-labels sub pop gesignt wurde, war zwar eine kleine sensation, rückte ihn aber aus dem blickfeld seiner europäischen fans. schon in den ersten momenten versetzt einen aimlessness mitten in den dntel-kosmos. von van dyke parks bis pavement, von den dead kennedys bis zu dr. dre hat popmusik aus kalifornien durch ihre emotionale abgründigkeit fasziniert. genauso zieht uns dntel in einen unwahrscheinlichen strudel aus irisierend schönen melodien und noch nie gehörten elektronischen klängen.

pressed on 180gr vinyl... phonica records inaugurate a new series of releases that will fall under the special editions banner. a series that will feature collaborations, one-off releases and anything that doesnt fit into the main labels outlook. the first release comes from sinkane, a hotly tipped new artist from ny. sinkane is the project of sudanese-born musician ahmed gallab. gallab cut his own teeth as a youngster in the punk diy landscape of middle america, and then found himself touring far and wide as a member of yeasayer, caribou, eleanor friedberger, born ruffians, and of montreal. he has emerged from it all as sinkane, a project that identifies a renaissance within the space and spirit of the outposts of contemporary music. with an aesthetic range seamlessly shifting from soul to rock, and from jazz to pop, sinkanes vibe is timeless and the sound is now. runnin is a song taken from a collection of songs simply titled mars. on this limited edition 12 from londons phonica records, the album version of runnin is re-imagined as an increasingly dense longburn club jam by daphni (dan snaith of caribou fame) and as a more angular headjam by chandeliers of chicago

die stecker wurden gezogen, die drums in der garage gelassen – hansonis kommt heuer auf ganz leisen sohlen daher. akustikgitarre, zurückgenommener gesang und ein paar tupfer e-gitarre, klavier und keyboards – mehr benötigt der musiker nicht, um “shark week“ zu einer zwingenden angelegenheit zu machen. von folk über country und blues bis hin zur mörder - ballade – hansonis schlendert auf seiner melancholischen reise durch die songwriter-genres, veredelt seine songs aber immer wieder durch die entscheidende prise distinguierten 80er-pops. hier ein unwiderstehlicher melodiebogen, da eine prägnante phrasierung – der kölner vermählt us-amerikanische musik - traditionen mit einem britisch geprägten popverständnis und dreht am ende sein ganz eigenes ding draus.

bob dylans >love & theft< was a true return to form, his 30th studio album, with the unfortunate release date of september 11, 2001.
his voice is shot, but he sounds warmer, more relaxed, and old mr. grumpy is as good humoured as on >the basement tapes< (movlp 429). bob is in a wistful, elegiac, playful mood. he has recovered the humanity he lost on >time out of mind<, and is looking on life with loving eyes. he has thrown off the weight of life and is remembering a better self. and that makes this one of his more accessible albums, despite a lack of high-flying hit songs.
with beautiful printed inner sleeves and 180 grams audiophile vinyl, this is the first vinyl re-issue since 2001!

if you like the sound of cheap analog synthesizers from the mid 80s, drum machines and strangely pitched human voices this might be the record for you. a small warning about the quite melodic and poppy arrangement, it is not minimal, nor pure drones. sorry. estelle ep has nothing to do with the car Škoda estelle, even though some instruments used on the songs were produced during the same years. estelle ep is more or less a result of the new kranglan broadcast hardware studio environment. the plan was simple: to get rid of the machines that were not being used and to make the rest communicate with each other. this resulted in some very fine jams where realtime feelings and spontaneous ideas were converted into music. each track is its own moment in time.

marbert rocel spend most of their time looking out of the window and smoking. then they make music, someone draws for a while, and they soon go back to looking out of the window and making music. marbert rocel are twinkle-toed, and yet hardly tangible when you try to grasp them. they combine dance music with songs, songs with cookies and, in turn, cookies with dance music.therefore, marbert rocel spent a lot of time touring – playing gigs in germany, holland, italy, poland, indoors, outdoors, on the roof, in the cellar, in small groups, in front of many people, and in front of very many people.<it greatly influenced our music. this is the reason as to why we now make ballads at 130 bpm.< at a concert on enceladus in 2010, marbert rocel met martin kohlstedt. he seemed to fit perfectly to the band and behind the rhodes, thanks to his constant eight- armness and his tiger stripes.

for another record store day release, british singer-songwriter victoria christina hesketh (little boots) teamed up with historic chicago house label trax to release the 12 inch for >every night i say a prayer<. she wrote this one with hercules & love affairs andy butler and it is better than anything on his groups sophomore dud blue songs. (it is also better than pretty much everything on little boots own spotty debut, 2009s hands.) the housey original version of >every night< incorporates a sort of cleaned-up old-school chicago aesthetic (dig the claps), but tensnakes posh freestyle rerub is the vinyls real winner. you can never go wrong with clinking 808s and pretty female vocals. fact.

so, who is this mysterious afefe iku? after absolutely destroying the dancefloors all year long with his infamous bootleg of radioheads >everything in its right place<, which he smartly put out in extremely limited amounts of vinyl around the same time his mentor, osunlade, featured his cover of that very same song on bbes >exit music: songs with radio heads<. in all honesty afefe remains a mystery even to us. so, let us start by saying who afefe isnt. unfortunately, for those who thought he was osunlade, you are mistaken, but dont feel ashamed, because afefe creates at osunlades studio in santorini, which makes sense to pinpoint him as osunlade.

nach vier jahren im studio, in denen sie ihren perfektionismus und ihre liebe zum detail bis aufs Äußerte zelebriert haben, veröffentlichen blek le roc nun ihr gleichnamiges debüt-album. das indie-pop-trio überrascht den zuhörer mit einem filigranen und doch satten sound, der so ungewöhnlich wie fesselnd ist. ihre musik ist keinem schema verhaftet. beinahe schüchtern fasst sie den zuhörer mit dem ersten ton, umklammert ihn immer fester und lässt ihn in andächtiger stille wieder warten. ohne pathos. die songs erzählen geschichten des scheiterns, des fragens, des wartens. sie sind offen für die interpretationen der hörer. alles ist mehrdeutig. scheitern kann hier auch aufbruch bedeuten. ist warten nicht gleichzeitig veränderung? es gibt keine klarheit …

das neue album von dan sartain >too tough to live< endlich als vinyl! dreizehn punkrock-tracks in einer durchschnittlichen länge von eineinhalb minuten. aufgenommen in den lucky cat studios in san francisco, liefern diese songs gefühle der verärgerung, frustration und unzufriedenheit in bester sartain manier ab. und als eine super Überraschung gilt der gastauftritt von jane wiedlin, ex-the go-gos auf dem song >now now now<.

phillips is the magnificent debut album by phillip lauer on running back. frankfurts melody man has amassed a body of work that includes the adventures of arto mwambe, top singles (delta nrg) on his extinct brontosaurus label for permanent vacation or live at robert johnson as well as remixes for the likes of maxmillion dunbar or with the tuff city kids project. the twelve songs that make phillips have been described as 808 state kissing movin records while cluster are in the room –, or a dolby nr tempest. whatever you want to call it, it has all the ingredients and romantic notions that can make dance music oscillate between the sacred and the profane: house, gloomy gothic grooves, cock-eyed electro, new wave trance and lots of songs without words. the power of lauer. available on cd, nine track gatefold lp and digitally. escorted by two tensnake remixes of trainmann on rb032 and more to come…,.

nice price deal !!! arclight drop the incredible holographic ep. via jacques greenes label vase. heralding from london, arclight caught massive attention via leaking songs on youtube and their incredible take on electronic music. the holographic ep starts with the glorious a side vitamin d. starting with sun soaked chords sparkling beside ethereal vocals it slowly builds in texture & pace until finally climaxing into holographic. the title track is just as memorizing as its predecessor with much more driven base of percussion and hypnotic chanting cascading into the realm of the night / club. b-side purple city is a tale of vice and virtue, sitting somewhere between panda bear, bjork and radiohead - arclight are making some of the most interesting pop music around. dj support from optimo, mary anne hobbs, gilles peterson and james murphy

the title track on tychos long-awaited dive lp is just that — a ripple effect record that sounds like three songs in one, as if sound/graphic designer scott hansen just discovered progrock and decided to apply its winding passages to his own singular blend of sinewy synths and bleached beats. its also the first tycho song to feature a prominent guest musician, guitarist zac brown, in this case, who paints outside the lines of hansens halcyon hooks with restless rhythms and monorail-like riffs. the >dive< single fleshes things out even further, as keep shelly in athens and memoryhouse — both rising underground artists in their own right — cut hansens cloud-scraping composition in half and slow his cruise control chords down to a crawl. the misty vocal melodies are still there, but they are now floating through an embryonic assembly of jittery cicadas, rusty gears, and lean loops that are both welcoming and a bit woozy. the sonic equivalent of staring at the sun for too long, really, or two sides of the same cracked mirror.

hinter dem namen human dont be angry steckt mit malcolm middleton ein altbekannter schotte - ob auf solopfaden oder gemeinsam mit aidan moffat als arab strap. auf seinem gleichnamigen album finden sich neun tracks. insgesamt erwarten den hörer knappe 47 minuten pure brillianz, was sonst ist zu erwarten? ob man dabei von einem instrumental-album mit gelegentlichen vocal-tracks oder von einem vocal-album mit gelegentlichen instrumental-songs sprechen soll, bleibt jedem selbst überlassen. was wir aber mit sicherheit wissen, ist, dass malcolm selber von einer kreuzung aus jan hammer und iron maiden spricht.

akufen is back in great shape with some new original material for his own label musique risquée, the only label where you can find these unidentified musical objects. five tracks of swinging melodic madness like only akufen can craft. if these songs dont bring you a smile, well, too bad for you.

originally recorded for chris blackwell of island records the rights of ‘life of contradiction’ were then given to joe higgs who released the album in jamaica and the u.k. in 1975. it was immediately obvious that this was a unique collection coming from a completely different direction to the other reggae releases of the period. although joe had first recorded some of the songs in the early sixties for studio one it was as if he was at last able to realise a vision of his own music that had previously been denied to him: either by financial constraints or from not having the right situation with the right musicians.

white hills newest and most energized recording to date is bursting with raw energy packed into their most concise songs to date. fear not long time white hills fans, there is still loads of killer guitar work and fuzzed out psychedelia on frying on this rock.

the day leonard cohen and phil spector decided to make an album together marked the beginning of one of the most controversial partnerships in either mans career.
over the course of three weeks, the pair had written 15 new songs, a selection of which ended up on the 1977 album >death of a ladies man<. it is true that a cursory listen to the album suggest that the whole thing was simply a ragbag of crazy notions thrown into the air to see where they landed. but if you pay attention, it will quickly make sense.

prinzhorn dance schools sophomore album, clay class, releases a quiet energy amongst a dark landscape, inarguably in tune with the downtrodden economic situations that have permeated modern life in the bands native britain, and conversely, along our shores. tobin prinz and suzi horn form a compelling duo whose shout-and-answer approach, paired with edgy and steady bass/drum patterns, achieves perfection in songs such as >seed, crop, harvest< and >your fire has gone out<. the album is constructed on the emblem of empty space, as songs such as >i want you< bridge the gap between musical minimalism and cold intimacy. the oscillation between starkness and warmth pays homage to the bands debut 2007 release, while also creating a modern, if not postmodern, musical snapshot of life across the pond, as well as in our own backyards.

nice price deal !!! melodies and words are in faccinis bones and his finely crafted songs resonate with traces of his ancestry. if his songs were maps they would stretch from the english moors to the saharan dunes via the parched plains of the mediterrannean before spanning the atlantic ocean all the way to the mississippi delta. for piers, recording albums means surrounding himself with old friends, people he can talk music with, true accomplices, fellow souls who share a common vision. a soulful and expressive singer/songwriter whose music fuses folk, acoustic blues, and west african textures, piers faccini was born in england to anglo-italian parents, and moved with his family to france when he was five years old.
