an imaginary country continues from the trajectory of tim heckers last album, the critically acclaimed harmony in ultraviolet, while also showing a few new tricks. tim has incorporated more pulses into this work and also works with a sound pallete including overdriven mellotron strings and synthesizer. at times this album is less overtly aggressive than previous works, but the notion that this is pastoral work would be dead wrong as there are plenty of the agitated crescendos that he is know for. this music backs off from the void of immensity in favor of a terrain of lushness and warmth.

zum souligen sound des liedes, das ihm sein freund jean-michel tourette überließ, stellt bela die frage: warum nicht auch mal den freundeskreis entschlacken? einfach den ballast abwerfen und mal auf sich besinnen. auf der ausverkauften bela b club-tour letzten herbst war dieses lied der opener und auch auf dem album eröffnet es das kabinett der songs, die uns einen runderneuerten bela b zeigen. dass die americana-experten von smokestack lightnin (mit denen er das album eingespielt und produziert hat) und die ausnahmesängerin peta devlin tief in ihrem inneren den sound von motown & stax lieben und ehren, wird hier eindrucksvoll zur schau gestellt. die 7 inch erscheint inklusive single-cd.

tapping into the strong current of quality electronic music coming out of sweden, the latest bass culture shines a light on two talents working out of the stockholm underground who have created their own imprint on the european house and techno scene. the pajala sunrise e.p marks the first release that mr tophat and art alfie have issued away from their shared base camps of junk yard connections and karlovak, two labels that showcase the pair’s commitment to pushing 4/4 dance music forwards wherever they can. energy lies at the heart of the sound that oscar and rudolf (to give them their real names) conjure up, both in the urgent pulse of their full-bodied drum arrangements and the spiritual lilt of their melodic content.

the central executives what can we say ? not much as it turns out - the generally very forthcoming golf channel crew are remaining tight-lipped about the architects of this, frankly mind-blowing debut long-player from this new nyc collective. a walk in the dark is exactly that, a situationist song-sheet & sonic chaperone to guide us through the back street escapism these troubled times demand. from gently over-driven punk funkin mascara stained hymns, to house that has been thoroughly smudged to the edges of its live music incorporating limits. sitting very comfortably, in a moment of stewed elevation alongside sound signature style machine jams, bare bones vocal led improvisations, discordant arthur russell moments & the distorted reflections of roots house that run to the very core of the big apple. a drop-jaw debut then, that wears its influences proudly, but takes them somewhere entirely new.

berliners dirk leyers and nomad expressed their hard earned musical freedom in a dogma: the use of a roland tr-808 analog drum machine in every single track. they programmed the machine to lay poly-rhythms over multicultural drum and percussion tracks, fascinated -and sometimes puzzled- by its own characteristically sudden swing and accent changes, and named it: africaine 808 - their third and first female band member. in the first year of their musical joint venture, the three spent quite some time in remixing and editing some of their favourite african and island funk tunes, transforming the old gold into modern dj and dancefloor friendly tunes. the sound of organic grooves mixed with 808-beats and analogue synthesizer basslines became soon a trademark sound, and more and more samples got replaced by live played guitar, bass, organ and percussion. the trio experimented with different tempos and styles ranging from slow cumbia and exotic rumba themes to island-funk and percussive disco, electro and house. in spring 2012 they first took the project to another level, turning their tracks into a full live act at one of the vulkandance nights in berlin. today the project is growing and integrating guest musicians, drummers, percussionists and vocalists - for live performances as well as for recording in the studio. 100% sonic voodoo golf channel every time!

heavily inspired by early rave and detroit electro, paul blackford’s first release on breakin’ records was described as a pioneering uk take on the detroit techno bass sound. since then, he’s released tracks on labels such as wide, deadlock records and twilight 76. in 2009 he set up militant science as an output for his own and other artists material, with support from djs such as dave clarke, dj stingray, dj godfather, edmx, keith tenniswood, and many more. blackfords latest release on cpu turns up the bass and tempo, think kraftwerk vs detroit in effect.

2014 promises to be an exciting year for the good ship boe recordings and the first release in february sums up exactly what territory the label is setting its course for. nick lawson has long been overdue a release on boe and after a couple of years of nurturing, he has delivered a set of compositions that will stand the test of time and should no doubt feature in many true heads record boxes for an age. patiently and eagerly crafting his style, nick has pulled together a slick production aesthetic that shines with detail and emotion. the by any means ep proffers three tracks that wouldnt sound out of place on the impossibly rare and much coveted label driftwood.

fifth single from the duo altarboy. side a:the marathon thing is slow and esoteric track with a long break in which the roman producers rise and fall of bpm. the song takes you on a world reminiscent of memory lanes horror movies. the b-side blackmail is a techno bomb with references to the early 90s. wonder wet could not be more clear than that. the sound of this label is solid as marble.

last years precursors ep from eduardo de la calle provided quite a curveball release for cadenza records, the spanish dj and producer who has recorded exclusively for his analogue solutions label in the past, turned out a warm and minimal release for lucianos imprint, with all the flair and trademarks of eduardos studio prowess. really though, eduardos approach to electronic music perfectly encapsulates the sound ethics of cadenza emotive, driving, long passages of deep rhythm, often focusing on the bare essentials of a track and enunciating these for an aural joyride

a new line (related) is the latest venture from lancashire-based andrew johnson (hood/remote viewer/moteer). utilising tools from the early days of home produced underground dance music (such as sk5 sampler keyboards and vintage drum machines) andrew has unearthed a beautiful album of downbeat, lamp-lit techno, industrial grade ambience and sonic experimentation which at times recalls early warp records, gescom and raw, 313 area beatdown house, as well as the more modern breed of electronic and techno travellers such as actress, mark fell (late period) and even theo parrish (the slow sound of your life).
