ernestas kaušylas aka brokenchord is a music producer and composer born and raised in utena, a small industrial town in lithuania. kaušylas was quickly picked up by black acre, releasing both a 7inch single and an ep, after an exclusive mix of his was aired on bbc radio one’s experimental showhosted mary anne hobbs in 2010.
endless transmissions is the brainchild of kaušylas who single handily (bar two tracks) wrote and performed the entire album. the only collaboration was with jazz drummer, augustas baronas , who he encouraged to play as mechanically as possible. the lp pays homage to creativity and the ability topush the limits of technology with the physicalness of a human body. kaušylas explains “machines that mimic human grooves is boring but the other way around it becomes quiet interesting”.

(emcee) m.i. and producer dj cutt return a year after releasing the critically acclaimed “avant garde” with a new album and concept. the duo, who have further developed their creative enterprises to incorporate film production as part of their ever expanding six2six organization, have drawn from their respective italian and russian heritages to adopt the personas of luciano and lansky in the new album “omerta”.

pfirter and his label mindtrip are highly respected in the world of techno. being the main vessel for his own productions, it has also featured music and remixes by producers such as chris liebing, lucy, markus suckut, oscar mulero and developer, whilst also looking to support and break new artists. the fifteenth vinyl release is in charge of italian talent diego amura who makes his mindtrip debut following releases on the likes of arts, planet rhythm and konsequent. having played alongside leading djs such as ben klock, marcel dettmann, rødhåd, sleeparchive and dax j, his reputation is growing substantially with each gig and release. diego’s original tracks on the automa ep incorporate a raw, analogue aesthetic, with a nod to the old school. straight up jams ready for any dancefloor, they also have a feeling of menace and purpose from the twisted melodies. jonas kopp supplies the sole remix, who to many should need no introduction following his influential releases on tresor, polegroup, ilian tape, clr and many more. his rework concentrates on a more hypnotic flow, instilled with sparks of energy, funk and deep textures. this is mindtrip!

scotland s premier electro alchemist is back on shipwrec and this time flying solo with five shards of sharpened machine music. beats rain down in solid sheets, a hail of drum patterns pelt and pound. acid scorn, speeding snares and scorched sound roar and rumble in the menacing -days of rage.- the 12- hisses and howls, sending forth a searing line of percussion as gears crank and grown. -glasgow to detroit- is just as fiery, scorn and sparks leaping off burning bars. aggression is always at the surface, and behind the razor rhythms lurks a palpable paranoia, as in -daisy cutter- or -uprising.- the only respite comes with the complex and textured -stones and sticks.- harsh mechanics from an industrial heartland.

vent is guided by bana haffar into ethereal vistas open for interpretation. endless suggestions are offered, each fractaling into sparks of insight leading in turn to more suggestions. bana’s compositions display layer after layer of colourful enigmatic veils, hinting at an inner core of darkness whilst remaining playful and intuitive. her ideas expand over the length of this lp, and beyond that, further into our minds and bodies with the reverberations of her sounds.

the moment the track between pounds its first kick, you can t help but be immediately sucked in by doc sleeps ear for sophisticated, minimal, beautifully engineered sounds. between is a track that stays on its groove while soft gorgeous pads pass over you like waves, it s the perfect time for patrons of a dingy basement dance floor to connect in the dark. lastly, ampere is a track that lays out a solid techno soundscape that is mixed up at the listeners surprise with heavily reverb’d snare hits and brooding sweeps. on the b side, two remixers bring doc sleep s ep into a different dimension. bottom forty label head nark extracts the gorgeous pads and pulls them to the forefront of between, starting with a long ethereal intro sure to stop and sway any dance floor before continuing into a grimy minimal 303 bass line as the subtle rubs to doc sleep s original sounds lend it an exasperated grinding element. the second remix from bottom forty artist cid & fancy takes ampere into a place of rhythmic organized chaos with synth stabs that shoot off like metal sparks.

ganze vier jahre nach *gemini* meldet sich jack tatum, der in brooklyn lebende kopf hinter wild nothing, mit einem neuen studioalbum zurück. für *life of pause* hatte tatum das große bedürfnis die genre-grenzen zu sprengen und sich klangtechnisch neu zu definieren. nach einer langen phase des schreibens und experimentierens nahm tatum das neue material schließlich in los angeles und stockholm auf - zusammen mit produzent thom monahan (devendra banhart, beachwood sparks). die neuen stücke platzieren wild nothing inmitten des popzirkus: euphorisch-mitreißende popmelodien treffen auf epische arrangements, und es ist mitunter unmöglich, sich für einen lieblingssong zu entscheiden, wenn diese platte so viele davon bietet.
die limitierte lp erscheint auf siberfarbenem vinyl im gatefold cover mitsamt download-karte.

out on the floor firecrackers that ignited the northern soul boom on soul for dancers, journalist (mojo, record collector) and r&b authority lois wilson takes a trip back in time to the rare soul scene s roots, to where it all began if you like. many of the 32 tracks on this 2lp vinyl set (selected from the 61-track 2cd compilation) filled the floor at manchester s the twisted wheel and london s the scene club, both precursors of the wigan casino, blackpool mecca, the golden torch in stoke et al. the sparks that lit the fuse, these early triumphs would give rise to an era defining scene, one which became a treasured subcultural phenomenon.

step into brooms dojo and be met with a sausage apocalypse, as the uk techno magus flays alive your wildest dreams using his brace of bangers. with snake-like precision this chimera of the shadow realms pounds techno oblivion from his production line. sparks fly as gleaming loaves of acid-soaked brilliance fly out the bakehouse door, the master bakers eyes spinning like electronic roulette wheels - out of control under delirious bass weight. enshrouded in the blue haze of the shamans gourd pipe, mr mark broom is again set to blow the back doors off any club this side of basildon

2009 gründeten john pelant, micky alfano und mark ritsema night moves eine band, die nicht nur auf pressefotos beeindruckt. nach dem einstieg von drummer jared isabella anfang letzten jahres war die band vollständig und wurde schnell von domino records entdeckt. im märz erscheint nun auch in europa das debütalbum colored emotions mit seiner knieerschütternden mischung aus folk, dream-pop, psychedelic und natürlich der wahnsinnsstimme von sänger john und einer bandoptik, die trotz all der nebensächlichkeit einfach nicht unerwähnt bleiben darf. als produzent fungiert thom monahan der bereits für devendra banhart oder den beachwood sparks an den reglern saß!

formed in san francisco in 2009 by wooden shijps guitarist ripley johnson and sanae yamada, moon duos first two critically acclaimed eps, killing time (2009) and escape (2010), fused the futuristic pylon hum and transistor reverb of suicide or silver apples with the heat-haze fuzz of american rock n roll to create tracks of blistering, 12-cylinder space rock.

as i look to the sky from the surface of the water is the much awaited second album from grit, aka london producer gary brackley and it has found a perfect home on meanwhile. the label is well placed to be an outlet for grits explorations deep into the realm of deep techno, thanks to its standing within the techno community and this album stands tall alongside contributions from the likes of murmur, sven weismann, bvdub and conforce. opening with the expansive title track, grit sets the tone for what to expect with the ripple of syncopation shifting in and out of focus amidst the viscous layers of foggified luminescent ambient texture. across the subsequent five tracks this tone is retained throughout as brackley playfully explores the inventive sparks that arise when rhythm rubs with texture, with the smudged out subaqueous >safer retreat< a real highlight.

on the flip lopazz and zarook add a more dub-infused note to their remix treatment. tokyo based producer liquid pegasus delivers a strong recording debut slowing things down to 100bpm resulting in a wonderfully deep disco cut.

the band recorded cadenza last summer locked in a salford basement experimenting and stretching their songs into new and unexpected shapes. produced by brendan williams and phil bulleyment they’ve created an album that, whilst drawing on the eccentricities of sparks, the piano methods of steve reich and the unhinged prog-pop of the cardiacs, has at its heart a real pop pulse.

nice price deal !!! the music of the cologne based duo kitbuilders can be described as electro with scifi-punkrock-energy and a grebo edge. a remarkable element in the tracks are the vocals of female singer ripley. in the kitbuilders-cosmos you will also find the sparks in their moroderphase, chris and cosey, neu and devo. but their music is not 80s retro stuff, they include a lot of futuristic and fresh elements in their songs. after a handful of 12 inch singles and compilation appearances on labels like electrecord, world electric, vertical and ersatz audio, >wake up< was the debut full length from the duo. the us magazine xlr8r called it >...an excellent hybrid of the past and present<. alongside american outfits like adult. and fischerspooner, kitbuilders are at the forefront of the worldwide electro revolution. equal parts moroder and liquid sky, the duo of benway and ripley fluctuate between adrenaline-rush bpm 909 beats, fluttering sci-fi arpeggiations and tense, sinister moodiness.

the enigmatic midland brings more joy with his next release on more music, in an experimental workout fusing the intricacies of dubstep with rapturous house sparks and the epic strands of techno, all highlighted by remixes from radio slave and youandewan.

fresh 2010 repressed ...played by stephan bodzin, loco dice, troy pierce, oliver huntemann, oxia. after several strong single releases of the voltage musique stars now the guys have combined their super powers and sparks are literally flying. in line with the motto -les amies- they share the results with their best friends and unleash it into the clubs at the best party time of the year. four tracks, four facets, four sure shots. the floors are pre-heated - bring winter on.

coming from the heart of bosnia, solomun is a passionate dj who certainly knows how to please a crowd and keep the energy on the floor. equally as talented and creative in the studio, he has many releases to his name on his own label diynamic, as well as other imprints such as four:twenty, liebe*detail and dessous recordings. made for the dancefloor, his productions always have an element of funk or surprise, reminding people of the fun thats there to be had with music. as a label with many close ties to mobilee records, diynamic will be co-hosting a party at mobilees sonar 2010 celebrations, which makes it even more fitting that this release brings the two forces more closely together. solomuns next big bang, being brought to you via leena music, is a sure extension of his impeccable production skills and style, and is also one of the most unique releases you will here on the label so far. a-side >sisi< opens with a head-spinning explosion of notes and chords, being fired out like sparks in a continual loop. then half way through the record, they dramatically stop, only to soon build up again and set the roller coaster off once more. b-side >talk to the hand< is a bass-heavy and punchy track, that surprises you with euphoric piano chords in the second half, whilst b2 >curesto< brings all of the elements together with piano chords, build-ups and some drama. enjoy!

classic coldplay album!! originally released in 2000!

cocoon-artist aki latvamäki spreads out on straightforward : a 12 minute journey of balearic bliss, cosmic sparks and endless landcruising.

when the two colossi of the bearfunk label get together you can be sure that creative sparks will fire and the disco grooves will ooze. and so we present stevie koteys and max essas new project, the cunningly titled soiree. as a taster for the upcoming treats we are pleased to release a four track ep covering the musical bases that the london and tokyo based pair intend to cover. the theme from soiree announces arrival in a big way. disco grooves meets herbie hancock with lee ritenour tints. real drums from dave barbarossa, jazzer keys and some nifty fretwork from max. overgroomed slows things down to slo-mo speed and mixes japan/mick karn-esque fretless bass and layers of percussions and beats

one of the great aspects of the endlessly varying bass music soundwave is the way it seems able, even compelled, to fuse antecedant styles and genres to itself. in the most innovative hands, influences from last month are absorbed and reworked as smoothly as those from last century, and creativity sparks brightest when the marriage of form and function takes place beyond recognised boundaries? and it?s from that unrestricted zone that uk producer o-dessa emerges. opening with an initial resemblance in sound to the same plaintive blue air of burial, as these tracks resonate deeper in the mind, it becomes clear that this sonic affinity is merely a veil beneath which a new heart beats. the rhythms lurking below the bassline in ?deeper? are like some undiscovered amalgam of old skool hardcore and something you might hear on the latest dirty south mixtape, which somehow manage to defy sense and co-exist in a driving and breathtaking way. mournful mariachi horns and a plunging dub bassline intermingle in a desolate approximation of sergio leone?s western soundtracks, while reedy flutes and distant female voices build a swirling vapour through which skittering woodblocks and metallic ticks raise an anxious sense of motion. anchored by a vast, cone-melting sub-bass undertow, ?deeper? s treasures are buried well below the surface. the juxtapositional subtle-tear-out nature of o-dessa?s production is even more apparent in ?million dollarz?, which reveals itself in stages to be a gradual descent into layers of tweaked amen breaks, but with a grandeur unlike anything previously heard, even though that drum pattern has already been chopped countless ways over the years. it?s not until midway through its five-and-a-half minutes that the famous phased snares rise from the dense banks of atmospherics, but when they do, a moment of blurred euphoria hits and the tune bursts into colourful life. this 12¬ is the first broadcast of many more to come from o-dessa, as - like many have in their own way before and still more strive to do so now - he embarks on his individual journey in the continual reinvention of bass music. instant thrill junkies won?t find their fix in these grooves, but followers of the path less travelled will recognise many signs pointing the way to a rich future.

chic miniature comprises of ernesto ferreyra and guillaume coutu dumont, a pairing of immense musical wisdom. the ep opens with the warm tones of escandalo, putting romance back into the dancefloor with floating melodies and guidelines to loosen your mind. this track arouses all the senses, a pearl in the ocean set to be a classic that wins all hearts and minds. chanchita appeals to the depths of many a late night, rising like a viscious wasp this track has a sting that sparks ripples of energy

first single to be lifted from the forthcoming lp is a flawless representation of some of the freakishly danceable tracks contained therein. a wholly original mashup of electronics, my heart rate rapid is sheer falsetto laden, drum battering brilliance. although metronomys elliptical, insidious, multi coloured art pop sounds nothing like colognes legendary purveyors of prog disco, can do offer clues to the lineage the band belong to. add early brian eno, sparks, devo, talking heads, soft cell, and then scratch your head for more recent examples of abstract music, full of experiment, risk, and individuality that somehow resolves itself into pop that makes you sing and dance and feel like a big kid and you realise that you cant think of any, because metronomy are, in the current pop milieu, an utterly unique proposition.

supported by anthony collins, gregor tresher, sebo k and djinxx. luca bacchetti continues his ascent with his third wagon repair release. the a side >night over kwazulu< stirs together deep african drum patterns, pulsing tech-house percussion and kindling melodic sparks. a haunting chanted vocal and delayed horn melody introduce mystery to a wilderness of echoed tone and chimed synth. b side >rollin brooklyn (lee van dowskis monday turbulence mix 1)< sees the swiss/french techno dj reinvent a track from lucas first wagon repair release

we come accross suffocating moments, sick jazz in a minimalistic key, sparks of extreme, evolutive, interlaced intensity that eventually create futurisms and bring them close to the listener. intensity, restlessness, hypnosis and vibration could define this first tupperwear release in klitekture. this ep extracted from their album >beton insel< is, most of all, a true surprise box, as you will not be able to predict by which roads will the following twist in this permanently progressing and changing evolution, theres where a very significant part of its assets and its own goal reside. complexly and simply brutal. this ep edition released on vinyl contains a remix crated by lod from gas usa, a debilitating declaration of intentions by tupperwear that under lods concept aquires a smother tone than the original going from the tupperwear demolish actitude to a more repetitive structures
