altered moods recordings makes its first artist foray into asia, more specifically, it sets its sights on nagano, japan, where it finds a fertile and quickly expanding underground scene and one of its key players, yoshiki tsuchiya, also known as miruga. miruga has made a big splash in his relatively short arc as an underground artist. he came out strong in 2012 with human tube on anton zaps bellwether ethereal sound label after a full-length digital album on logos recordings two years prior.

repress. the third instalment on kutmah s experimental izwid imprint, south london dj and producer al dobson jr. creates a 15 track deep, exploration of soulful, tribal drums and abstract musical curation. otherworldly and nuanced beats re-imagine the score of the sampledelic funk tale. one that s non-geographical but rather lost in loops, journeying through the time and space that exists within your headphones. alternating between cosmic vocal rips and a myriad of loose, soul-infused beat tape-style sketches with its digital flourishes, sounds from the village vol. 1 sees the sunrise and sunset over a bohemian musical vista

in the space of two short years shlømo has quickly established himself alongside the likes of marcelus, bambounou, francois x and the antinote records crew as a key figure in paris’ current techno generation. having established his own taapion records label in 2013 and built a roster around a core of local producers including roman poncet, pvnv and antigone, in addition to enlisting stephen brown, conforce and sterac as remixers for the label’s releases so far. for its fifth release, bright sounds - run by fellow parisian kennedy smith - revisits last year’s rechaïm ep (bsrx003), with a trio of remixers offering their own takes on shlømo’s established deep and expansive sound. first up is the aforementioned 50 weapons artist bambounou, who offers a dynamic groove-based version of the title track that bounces along an elastic kick drum with cut-up fragments of the original’s atmospheric pads providing further impetus. label owner kennedy smith takes on theory is the worst by bringing its dub textures to the for while filling the track’s empty spaces with intricate drum patterns. finally, italian techno pioneer donato dozzy turns grounded queen into a classic dozzy slow-burning techno trip, with his trademark layered sound complimenting the track’s subtle rhythmic backbone.

the title track has already made rounds on numerous dance floors and proved to be an irresistible organ house monster. panthera krause s tracks wiggle within the zone between epic floor moments and abstract beat structures like in the mighty -z-cuts- or in the flute-induced -howling for july-. finally, the space between us- is an emotional ride through the twilight of eternal loss and extravagant hope. the artwork was created by lisa geue.

by all accounts, whiskey disco has matured. each release unique, but compiled meticulously to meet some of the highest standards in the edit community. wd45 continues the trajectory with 4 tracks combining equal parts soul, boogie and disco. rastanils cuts up cheesy obscurity to reveal heavy disco vibes—this edit was smashed by mcde at numerous festivals in 2015. next up, the intriguing corsican brothers reappear after a 5 year absence from whiskey disco with a sliced version of i like it, beefed up bass and space on the platters with a touch of dub. side b exemplifies the weirdness only a b-side can… albions disco chopper is a stretched and phased party jam that does not stop. move to the inside for the lengthy and epic big time, a 9 minute exploration into rocking disco roots, courtesy of the eponymously named blaxploitation movie from 1977.

mono junks dum records has been dictating trends in the world of minimalistic techno since the 1990s, and its 34th release is as special as any. this one comes from label boss kimmo rapatti aka mono junk vs mesak, who is better known as fellow finn, tatu metsätähti, aka one half of mr velcto fastener and someone who has released on dexter & steffis klakson. together the pair serve up three mixes of their jam and an additional track. title track deep in my mind is a paranoid techno cut with freaky vocal riffs repeating the title as gurgling synth lines and sleek drums rumble below. twitchy synths and high pressure perc add to the hypnotic effect, and overall its easy to see this one making for some perfectly weird dance floor moments. the mix by mono junk is completely the opposite: in his hands it is a beat-less, serene and beautifully styled electro cut that takes you deep into brain soothing space. the electro mind version is then a full on electro jam, with plenty of aqueous synths and fluid lines all squiggling along in classic detroit style. final track sysdrum is back to the raw, with angsty drum lines, crisp and slapping snares and oodles of reverb all making for a brain frying trip.

two years after releasing his first ep, x_1 pursues his exploration of the connections between electronic codes and sounds related to space, stories or emotions. this disc is teinted with electroacoustic influences and its three tracks, -le glitch-, -happy hifi- & -tangente a l’ouest- each have their own identity. they are all indeed dedicated to both dancing and meditating. this disc aims to generate proper listening moments and emotions wether you’re in a club, at home, in the street, alone or with some friends. three colored wanderings that came out of this young producer’s mind.

2015 brought the trilogy of the dancer to ressort. now the labels core artists each remix their tracks in circles. while all of them aim for the dancefloor, ressorts core artists could not sound more diverse. ekserd and border one aim for the raw, the groovy and the pure while array access and glos lose themselves more and more in sound design and dreaminess. since the many aspects of art and music form a cycle of ying and yang, each artist shows the other an interpretation of what he might have missed before. be it a complete stomper or a light absorbing epos, a deep and groovy house and techno hybrid or a journey into the depths of space every artist made one of the well known tracks released on previous eps his own. it is a very colourful package that bares every moment the label tried to cover in it s series before.

part 2/2 of his amazing album. intelligent communication. since 1967, astronomers have been receiving and cataloging very precisely timed radio pulses coming from sources they call pulsars. they have long assumed these to be natural sources, exotic spinning stars that emit laser-like radio beams that sweep through space much like lighthouse signal sequences. highly regular flashes and complex signal ordering are produced through intelligent modulation of their beam s intensity and direction of polarization. more significantly, through their seemingly purposeful geometrical alignments, pulsars appear to be conveying a coherent message. are these beacons from an intelligent origin? and are they warning beacons to warn us against the next shockwave that comes of the active galactic nucleus ore want they attack us? it might be prudent to consider whether we are talking about friends or foes.....mike storm.

roly porter bildete gemeinsam mit jamie teasdale (kuedo) das elektronik-projekt vex d. auf dem label planet mu feilten sie an stücken, welche die grundlage zu jenem sound bilden sollten, aus dem sich später dubstep entwickelte. nun ist roly porter bei triangle beheimatet, und er verschiebt die koordinaten seines sound-desings. waren seine beiden vorangegangenen roly porter alben von der idee beseelt, klangwelten zu erschaffen, die ohne rhythmus auskommen und sounds enthalten, die keine konkrete stimmung oder persönliche erfahrung verarbeiten, so erschafft er mit -third law- einen brückenschlag zu seinen anfängen. zwar halten nun wieder vereinzelt rhythmen einzug in seine stücke, jedoch werden diese derart verarbeitet, dass die funktionalität von club-musik völlig außer acht gelassen ist. die acht entstandenen sound-landschaften sind jedenfalls von majestätischer schönheit. das doppel-vinyl erscheint inklusive download-code.

solarism is the result of a common fascination for landscapes and a passion for contemplation.after two decades of an unbreakable friendship, we have finaly imaginated this protean entity to express what contemplation has offered us and how it connects us to the world, describing those experiences through music compositions, dj performances and welcoming other artists to release their art.we are really happy to introduce you to this new space of expression, with two arno e. mathieu’s pieces of music and a juju & jordash remix.on a1, as an expressive musical landscape, « ginger & lemon » describes a melancolic journey, starting with a balearic theme over a 707 tom groove, a melodic bass-line and some intense chords till a dark and tragic synth ending. a2 is the juju & jordash remix of « ginger & lemon » in a real moody jacking & swinging style, perfect for the crazyness of club s peaktime. on b1 « hapax» is another arno’s long narrative jam of acid and melodic synth, over a powerful bass-line and a driving drum, recounting the appearance of something which happen only once, but which always let his imprint.b2 is the arno’s drumless version of « hapax » for a more contemplative experience…welcome in solarism

2016 repress - further heat from gay marvine, brightening up every floor with powerful uplifting dj tools, the essence of the heat of the party. this time we have lost disco classic that just gets you burning, the funk of war given the perfect disco treatment, diana giving it to you like only she could (and later michael would, his exact staccato style), and luv tempo of factory favorites who later had a member who completed her phd in the cultural politics of the house music aesthetic in 1995. serious business for any floor!

damien lynch is a gentleman youve met in a past life. emerging with this debut, he steps nicely into a home at the esp institute. on side a, we‘re invited to the heights, a transcendent state where the negative space between the notes is equally as important as his lush instrumentation. damiens build-up of warm analogue machines twinkle and stab, leading way to a memorable hook, a squelching chord melody full of live nuance and energy. on side b, safe house plays out a similar theme in terms of arrangement, however, the ethereal space damien creates with the kalimba and driving arpeggios elevates us to an even higher plane, where his lead floats gracefully across the stereo spectrum, blanketing the fast-paced rhythms with a calming sense of purity. were serious when we say that these two songs will guide you toward enlightenment.

180 gram vinyl. initial copies in hand-made screen printed sleeves. fresh, genre bending interpretations from barac (romania) and dbridge (uk). these two inspiring producers provide their modern touch to the contemporary dancefloor continuum: dbridge offers an up-to-date hybrid that straddles the line between techno and breakbeat, while baracs extended mix is a deep and hypnotic journey through space. dbridge represents a milestone when it comes to uk dance music. being part of the legendary drum and bass group bad company in the late 90s, running his extensive label exit records, and regularly releasing on boddikas nonplus, metalheadz, as well as r&s, he has gained an enviable reputation as a specialist with a modern take on techno and breakbeat variations.

not an animal return with their 2nd installment, this time from ess o ess (aka chris stoker and jamie blanco). their original offering, cantillate, isn t an easy beast to identify, being equal parts swamp-rock and techno. imagine you ve stumbled across an ephedrine and moonshine fueled rave in a deep louisiana bayoux in the year 3000, and you re close. add an out-there vocal refrain, and you ll start to appreciate why this is a particularly distinct record. relocate said rave to a some kind of space ship hitting hyperspace, with photon torpedoes fully armed, and you ll suddenly find yourself with the first remix, as created by ene records owner chida.

as an encore to the mesmerizing ccc: bb: bbb: jj release on kontra-musik, tyler friedman brings out his version of what he thinks -dj techno tools- are. this is music for the dancefloor alright, but it s a dancefloor from a strange and slightly uncanny dream. tyler explores the sonic field between the chillingly precise and the vivaciously warped - the disciplined and the untamed. he thrives in that space, creating an eerie microcosmos of evolving harmonies and rhythms that seem to have lives of their own - like music coming out from a haunted clockwork. a suiting apparatus for a label unconcerned with the conventions of time.

wake up! records is proud to announce rise and fall, the debut ep by ian oakley, a new talent from toronto. skewing acid-tinged house with languid, lopsided grooves, rise and fall weaves a mix of dubbed-out elements into a unique, intuitive whole. “thumbs” evokes a liminal space perfectly suited for late night cruises and hypnotized foors. “rise and fall” stays true to its name, a slippery bassline ebbing and fowing against a elegantly mellow beat. on the b-side, “bug jam” indulges oakley’s electro side, while label co-owner benjamin brunn remixes “rise and fall,” reimagining the original as a spacious, kosmiche slow burner. rise and fall is a confdent debut, as potent in headphones as on the decks and a welcome edition to the growing wake up! catalogue.
