joy adegoke und wim janssens aka joy wellboy sind seit jahren unzertrennlich, ein paar in leben und kunst. ihr zweites album wedding klingt so komplett und vielf�ltig, wie man sich ein popalbum 2015 nur w�nschen kann: songwriting trifft crooning, elektrobeat kuschelt mit chanson, es gibt minnegesang auf der tanzfl�che, herzzerrei§ende duette und engtanzballaden f�r die ewigkeit.

straight out of the czech republic come the ferocious electronic exploits of scene stalwart, forbidden society. heavily influenced by the industrial sounds synomous with drum & bass during the golden era, fss hardline take draws on pioneers such as ed rush and tech itch, whilst bringing a little of his own punk ethos into the mix. the results are not for the faint hearted and with his second album ready to kick off 2015, throne crusher looks set to cement his status as czechs most major league drum & bass producer.

so hat man northern lite noch nie geh�rt. organisch, greifbar, ohne elektronische zus�tze. verspielt, manchmal ungeplant und mit dem fokus auf instrumente und stimme. die -wooden playground tour 2014- l�dt zu x limitierten konzerten ein. saxophon und fl�te, drums, keyboard und gitarre, dazu der kontrabass, das cello und die pure stimme von andreas kubat bringen den northern lite sound auf eine andere, ruhigere, aber nicht weniger mitreisende ebene. mit the white noize, einer band aus befreundeten musikern, geht es auf tour unterm sonnenhimmel. keine licht-effekte, keine gro§en b�hnen, sondern gem�tliche und passende pl�tze im garten hinterm club, auf der terrasse �ber dem szeneladen, inmitten einer freilicht-bar - das ist die -wooden playground- tour 2014

for a short period in 1981 and with brand-new equipment such as roland 808, sh 101, gr 500, we made some 8-track just for fun jam tapes. mainly just to experiment for our own pleasure. from those sessions, only white horse made it to a final treatment. the rest of the material was left behind, as our record company at the time found it too different. after white horse being a track indeed defining our sound, we thought it would be interesting to dig out left-overs to fulfill a documentation of that period - crucial for us at the time. we were still innocent newcomers, without actually knowing to be creating a new sound! recently, that left-over material was transferred from analogue to digital and, to stay as true as possible to original intentions, we only added vocals, bass and drumbeats ahead of a final mix. we hope that you will enjoy listening to it. good vibes from laid back copenhagen 2012.

do you love elegant, sophisticated music with a feeling, as much as raw, gutsy, hard-hitting music? guessing that you do penniman records takes great pride in introducing you to the excitements, because their music fits into both categories. they are an all natural free-of-additives-and-preservatives r&b / soul band. a band with both feet solidly planted on memphis and detroit, and with a heartbeat which is pure chicago. to put it simply, the excitements are what the doctor ordered: six dynamite musicians intent on bringing out the very best from koko jean davis extraordinary voice, a voice which will either break your heart or astonish your ears, whatever koko fancies the most. the excitements career is truly awesome. their first gig took place in july 2010, and a month after that the band embarked on the first of their three recording sessions, their first spanish tour and a series of concerts all across europe. very few groups can boast of enjoying such a critical success, selling so many 45s and capturing such a loyal following in so short a time. their splendid first album, -the excitements- available on vinyl and cd - has been produced by the great mike mariconda - the only living man with a direct connection between his ears and his crotch. hearing is believing, and koko and her partners are bound to mesmerize with numbers such as nathaniel mayer s -from now on-, barbara stephens s -wait a minute- and little richard s -never let you go-, a track which will go straight to your heart. you may call them old-fashioned. a classic sound, if you wish. one thing is clear: the good stuff is here to stay. stop reading, listen to the excitements and hear for yourself.

2011 album from the australian deep funk quartet. look out watch out builds upon the diamond hard and gritty funk and soul template they established with their self titled 2009 debut long player. not content to return with simply more of the same, look out, watch out expands the groups sound and repertoire, featuring as it does, incredible new vocalist may johnston, guest contributions from renowned randa khamis and roxie ray, a choice cover version plus original tracks augmented with some raucous and heavy brass.

this collection documents the two-decades-plus recording career of r&b icon luther vandross. even before he started putting out records under his own name, he was a first-call session singer (hes the one who created and sang the chorus hook on david bowies -young americans,- for just one example). throughout the 80s and the 90s, he was (both commercially and aesthetically) one of the most consistently successful r&b singer/songwriter/producers. this healthy two-disc selection of highlights from the impressive vandross catalogue moves deftly from heartfelt ballads (-a house is not a home-) to percolating, poppy numbers (-never too much-), spotlighting the mans mellifluous voice and tasteful phrasing at each turn. this is quite clearly the definitive career summary for this deeply influential r&b titan.

aardvarck returns with his third full length album for eat concrete records. anti concept showcases a taste for deep ambient and minimalstic soundscapes, dub, detroit techno and bass heavy beats, mixed into a perfect flow. as the title suggests anti concept leaves aside musical genres and focuses on atmosphere rather than style. on anti concept aardvarck carefully and patiently builds his own world of sound, adding layers and complexity with each track.tip!

its probably safe to say that youve never heard anything like brothers of brazil before. for the past three years the brotherly duo of supla and joao have been combining elements of traditional brazilian music such as bossa nova and samba with rock and funk to create a unique sound thats won over countless fans in brazil, and now theyre ready to expand worldwide with the release of their self-titled album. the duo was started when the brothers landed their own national variety show in brazil called brothers on rede tv. supla and joao realized then that when they collaborated the results were beyond what they had ever imagined.

wer die ueber 15 jahre dauernde karriere von dj shadow verfolgt hat, der wei§: ein albumtitel wie the less you know, the better ist bei ihm nicht ohne grund gewaehlt. dj shadow hat fuer sein kommendes werk nicht nur etliche samples aus seiner ueber 60.000 lps umfassenden sammlung, sondern obendrein auch drei fiktionale wortfuehrer herbeizitiert: ein als cartoonfigur gezeichnetes mobiltelefon, ein tablet und ein laptop. shadow feiert damit jedoch keineswegs unser digitales zeitalter, im gegenteil, er kritisiert mit seinen gadget-comicfiguren und deren kommentaren den zynischen grundton, der im digitalen zeitalter vorherrscht, den uebersaettigten miesmacher-tonfall, der gewisserma§en schon zur netiquette gehoert. auf the less you know, the better existieren satte beats, vereinzelte gitarren, klassische hiphop-banger und wunderschoene melodien nebeneinander. zu den highlights zaehlen unter anderem -scale it back- feat. little dragon, -stay the course- feat. talib kweli & posdnous (de la soul), -warning call- feat. tom vek oder auch der folk-track -sad and lonely-.

a stunning return to form for one of the pre-eminent modern soul singers - with background vocal guests including jody watley, faith evans, lalah hathaway, shanice and the andrea crouch singers. a remarkably strong fifth solo album from a soul singer who defines the word classy. highlights are his trademark gorgeous ballads ( miss you and goodbye ), hypnotic mid-tempo grooves ( 6 am and stay with me ), and irresistibly funky dancefloor tracks (the instant club hit ghost featuring jody watley). the insistent, gospel-flavoured mountain top is unlike anything you ve ever heard, and features the legendary andrea crouch singers. the album is rooted in the classic principles of melody and poetic lyrics while embracing eighties r&b/pop as purveyed by prince and michael jackson. since his outstanding 1997 debut album for mca, rahsaan has evolved as a vocalist and songwriter, along the way writing songs for tevin campbell, brandy, ledisi, lalah hathaway and van hunt. now in 2011, with the assistance of his regular production cohorts keith crouch and jamey jazz, he delivers some of his finest work.
