a1, entitled the weapon, is a pushy tune driven by sheer 909 rawness and that legendary dx7 bass we have come to love on many of jacob s tracks. a2, appropriately titled -from the underground (jmf s fatty rub), remixed by the english producer, jmf. keeping up with the energy of this release, a2 brings a tech-like jack vibe to the table. b1, entitled from the underground, is the original mix from which jmf reworked on side a. this track brings a tougher, darker vibe to the mix with a strong bass and steady pumping 909 riffs. b2, warehouse stomp, doesn t fall shy of its name.

the inescapable nerve in the six pieces is so strong, that one ends up feeling captivated rather than disappointed

celebrated and mercury-nominated uk duo rae & christian released their first new material for ten years in 2013 on night time stories/late night tales after spending the last decade meditating in a buddhist monastery in swindon. this year the label commissioned a series of remixes from mercury rising and mang dynasty (aka ray mang & bill brewster) take on favourite game featuring rising star of the swindon buddhist circuit jake emlyn. mang dynasty focus on gita langley s backing vocal hooks adding a chorus piano motif and stretch things out into an epic nine minute plus main version aimed squarely at the dancefloor (and afghanistan). jake emlyns more aurally-pleasing melodic parts are utilised towards the end taking things up another level to a happy finish. initial reactions have been so strong it seemed rude not to slip out a 12inch on mangled, home of the hits!

joe ashworth has marked himself out as one to watch over the past year with a string of underground cuts on waze & odysseys street tracks label, notably his collaboration with citizen, situation. he brings his textured, melodic sound to anjunadeep for the first time with debut release rebound / whatever weather. on rebound he showcases a nuanced approach, deftly blending strong techno influences with a delicate ear for melody. the twinkling, sometimes discordant keys that rise and fall throughout demonstrate an enviable maturity in joes productions. whatever weather is one for the dancefloor, revolving around an infectious bassline groove that rolls beneath crisp drums and more gorgeous flowing piano

finally the moment has arrived for us to release new original music on our own label! this monster release has a history that takes us back more than four years to a 48 hour studio session at our beloved marcy hotel in brooklyn, ny. the original collaborative effort came from a laundry list of familiar crew love players including soul clap s charlie and eli, wolf + lamb s gadi mizrahi, no regular play s greg paulus, the lovely deniz kurtel and even mr. fantastic himself, lee curtiss. after all was said and done the body and inspiration of the record was there but what was lacking was a strong vocal. enter robert owens, arguably one of the most prolific and sonically recognizable singers in house music period

its time for phonogramme to explore different styles and releasing one of its most successful project ! from france, kris tidjan composes music layers in the high sphere of soul jazz. playing most instruments by himself and singing, he also presents music live with musicians. on his first ep floating therapy he comes with feel the love & mystic bantu trip, african music accents & a strong rare groove touch, mastercut oriented under the supervision of professor inc. a1 featuring fela kuti s accent with an additional sax played by christian rodenberg while a2 reaches a 11:11 timing with peacefulness and aerial feeling.on the other side we go deeper into the artist s influences, ethnic vocals melted with tidjans * son of the sun* beautiful refrain & meimouna coffi at vocal chorus, some soul jazz broken beat like we rarely hear today, very strong and contributing to the genre greatly, * shining from the deep space*. for the b2 professor inc brings you a remix of feel the love in two part with a soulful vibe and deep house touch in the spirit of what he has already done for the label before.

legotek s first lp is brought to you by tel aviv based dot. imagine one of those special sets. the kind of musical story that sticks in your mind for ages, you always remember and in times can scoop endless seeming power from. well this 8-tracker from dot just about fulfils this kind of stimulus. each track can be seen either as one special individual or the whole package as one big flowing journey. mixed together this could easily turn out as a live set. now then, about the unique music and its seductive vibe. staying true to the underground heart of legotek dot has managed what many aim for in effort. a vibrant, lively and deep sound constantly accompanied by strong kicks and pumping melodies. the analogue core of the story has been given the breath of life to become a classic piece of deep house history.

memories from the past get back to us. similar situations that come to mind, reminding rhythms that have already been marked, energetic and engaging. without a stop, establishing a strong connection to the source. we follow the path. music as nexus.

the km editions series, admirably helmed by the mysterious keyboard masher, has always been one of the more interesting re-edit/rework labels. past installments have touched on krautrock, disco, balearica, funk, italo and what can only be described as electronic oddities. this sixth volume offers up three more impressively remixed, overdubbed and reedited gems. theres naturally much to admire, not least the omd style woozy synth-pop of stolen shapes (stealing rework), which should tickle the fancy of anyone of a balearic disposition. the same can be said about the immersive, sun-kissed pianos and shuffling grooves of -astral playground. there s also a chunk of silly but, perversely, rather good french cod-reggae in the shape of le cod-, arguably our pick of a strong bunch.

kaputt comes up with another must have. this time its miss sunshine (decoy, random island) from croatia with strong remix support by flug (clr, sleaze), attemporal (limited, synewave) and labelhead coeter (gynoid, flash). save this serious 12inch before its too late.

deep dubby techno on this new sound architecture. the label originally founded in rotterdam and currently operated from antwerp still going strong on a irregular base with tight modern techno and house releases. this one is maybe the first thats more or less rooted in the best dub techno traditions with a modern twist, remaining those nice swampy moist synths and seductive grooves. deadbeat and hreno come together to produce a dub techno tune of mcconaugheyan proportions.

allnite music 002 brings alex agore with some of his best works so far. both *basement jam* and *be someone* tracks strikes right the middle of the target, somehow between his earlier 4lux works and his no matter what hot dancefloor stuff. on b side, apoena presents two grooved house tracks with jazz sounding keys cut directly from vinyl. just a killer 4-tracker!

8th vinyl from gilesku series delivers another talent on display. a very intelligent work from one of the most promising slovenian producers you should pay attention to in the future - vid vai. a three track ep opens with an intelligent minimalistic track somewhere out there - this catchy bassline, wicked and smart game of beats will definitely open your mind and take you on a ride. eleos is uncompromising dancefloor bomb with strong acid line, accompanied with warm synth theme which will take you back in time. to conclude this amazing ep, here is hidden projections track, another acidish gem that proves how talented vid vai is.

t s as melancholic and longing as a snowy winter s night could be. as warm as a heart could feel when being in love. strong, pushing drums are the inner force, while the the slowly drifting saxophone brings a heart melting feel to this track. ps i love you is the note at the end of a letter that turns it into a loveletter. rafaele castiglione carefully reworked ps i love you. while the theme stays the same, the remix is a different handwriting for the very same words.

this is keno 026 and keno 027 on one vinyl. this means athens and brighton team up with 4 very well produced tech house smashers. iris blonde with the fattest bassline and the bot with the nicest breakdown are the standout tracks on this release. very strong package.

the fruit of b4ck6roundno1se has ripened despite the fact the the tree is in a demotivating country without sunshine in a fucking closed garden. the tree has been sprayed by a lot of jealous and hostile arseholes but its roots are strong. let this record and the whole self-made label motivation to all those, as well, always searching for excuses.

yse, aka ant plate, also known as one half of stellar british deep house duo rhythm plate - makes his editorial debut with a strong 4 tracker, complete will deep disco / house crossover jams for the dancefloor, a slo-mo funk bomb in bow legged robot and a tropical breeze of a tune on optimistic voyeur. it all adds up to a great plate of wax.. coming soon on translucent purple limited edition vinyl.

dank antagonysm wurden sie vereint - der französische beatmaker ugly tony und der aus la stammende rapper phil the agony (strong arm steady) haben sich für diese ep auf dem franzoesischen label rugged records (das label von dj & producer dj low cut) zusammengetan. phil the agony liefert hier prägnante lyrics mit seinem atypischen fluss auf ugly tonys produktionen und beats, die aus progressiven 80er electro- & rock-samples bestehen. das ganze in einer perfekten alchemie!

• german duo dualit join the eartoground camp
• strong four tracker with printed sleeve

london label eartoground s final release of 2014 raw material sees another new act joining the label as they welcome on board dualit . this german duo are otherwise known as oliver rosemann from leipzig and mascon from frelberg. recently they have released on such prolific labels as clr, earwiggle and fifth wall records. this release features six tracks, being four originals backed by two centralised locked grooves with full front and back artwork on the sleeve. audio selected for this release gives a good over all presentation of dualit s varied, deep and raw dynamic range of techno.

i.vy presents her third release on ther own label, chinese laundry. after the first two volumes, continuing the saga in vinyl on the label, also time she s proposing a release based on the acid sound, in fact, from here come the names of the three tracks of -vol. 3 -, sonically distinct from forms of sound in both the quality of the tone and in the structure, leading to a complete trip right in the underground scene. the a-side exposes two tracks both dictated by a bassline, a sequence of acid accompanied by a drum-machine percussion, the sounds derive from -machines- that have guided the analogue creative artist, exposing grit, intensity and quality defined the synth that has a continuous evolution throughout its duration, with a sound much richer in harmonics. the other side of the coin is the b-side, a product of the collaboration between i.vy & the 90 s peacefrog producer solid state, a true evolution from the first two tracks, while following the lodging acid, the b-side results more aggressive and determined, demonstrating a mindset based on a building techno, with a strong impact on the dancefloor.

the third release from wavefreform again comes to us from the east, and this time around it marks a reformation of sound for both the label and the artist. half of the long-running georgian duo greenbeam & leon, boyd schidt is a producer with over a decade of work already under his belt whose first releases emerged in 2007. as a solo artist, his career dates to 2010 with digital releases on georgia’s front rec, fvf records, and emote music, and a track on the new vinyl compilation from studio r°. with the hard, broken kick pattern, elevated tempo, and nods to electro, the a-side ‘phantom’, a collaboration with subex, is a change of pace for the artist and the hardest thing yet to emerge from wavereform. dubwise use of effects shows the same hands still at work, but the sound elements, granulated blasts of static and drop-based structure of the track hold strong parallels to the rejuvenated techno sound currently emerging from the uk. the b-side, ‘structure’, recalls the previous work of the artist: subtle, building dub techno rich in detail and with the dancefloor firmly in mind. there is clear experience at work here with his deliberate deployment and manipulation of elements as the track struts along while enveloping the listener in its smaller details. as it pauses and takes an extended breakdown, the details rush forwards, but it finds renewed force to power itself to the close. coming in this case from an established producer with a long history, this kind of control is not surprising, but it is more indication of the riches of the east that have yet to be discovered by audiences worldwide.

roots for bloom label boss jamie trench kicks off the label offshoot rfbcolours with a collaboration ep alongside rebel. the a side tracks come from jamie himself. -good love- has a stripped back garage feel with a jacking and filtered vocal carrying it, then stapled brings things across with a more techno feel with strong stabs and background drifting chords. the b side is where we see rebel s input, with the rolling and infectious in the end . the groove is again stripped back and simple but it s this that carries the vocal that demands your attention. the two then pair up for we don t fly first class and it s apparent to hear in the track where the two come together well. this one is driven by a huge sub bass line and simple stabs and talking and seductive vocal lines.

in less than a year since first starting out, guy gerber’s rumors label has become one of the go-to outlets for considered, classy and cultured house music. after tastemaking and standard-raising releases from guy & dixon, lake people and chaim – as well as memorable parties everywhere from bpm to wmc - now the imprint offers up a fantastically strong and seductive four-track sampler entitled chinese whispers.

continuing a strong line of afro inspired works, men like pedestrian & jasperdrum drop another scintillating technoid excursion on 2nd drop. deeper, moodier with dynamically carved esoteric angles, *origins* moves forward from the superb kalakuta, the afrobeat meets bass music bomb supported by giles peterson, scuba, midland, mr scruff and many more, from last year, to deliver a heads down destroyer. off kilter, wonky and expertly crafted, pedestrian & jasperdrums *origins* is pure class, led by a host of syncopated percussion, haunting flute lines and distorted vocal samples, this is what fela would have sounded like if he had teamed up with carl craig in 2014! on the flip we welcome alix perez, best known for his dnb production but widely talented as shown by his arp101 outings on the likes of eglo. here, alix takes the tools to kalakuta, transforming the originals afrocentricity into a tense, punchy roller, dominated by a bass line which literally jumps in to your ears. toss in a stabby synth line, rifle shot drums and plenty of bass with space, this a beautifully crafted refix.

new ninja tune signing storms in with a host of sounds nailed here. following on from his fused excursions on black acre, this wont disappoint either. pressed on heavy 180g vinyl - strong wristed rewinds only! tip!

365 million years ago a meteorite crashed with tremendous force in the middle of a land mass that much later would be called sweden, creating one of her largest lakes. the area around this lake, siljan, has always been an epicenter of swedish folklore, with many tales of beautiful but dangerous creatures of the ancient forests and deep vales. perhaps, then, it s no coincidence that the skies over siljan later became the focus of unexplainable sightings, or that small societies appeared, claiming strong indications of extraterrestrial activities on the bottom of the lake itself. the tales may change over time, but the mysterious lake remains the same. and now the time has come for a new tale from siljan. producer colleagues hans berg and johanna knutsson have spent long periods of time in a studio by this lake. feeling a bit like aliens themselves with their blinking and bleeping music machines, the label name ufo station recordings came naturally. little raver ep is the first release, and throughout the three tracks you can clearly sense the contrast between the scenic landscape and sounds inspired by space and alien technology: shimmering ethereal melodies over classic, very fulfilling drum machines. the melancholic singing of space whales over deep and bubbly analog basses. the little raver ep is a house music ufo destined to arouse wonder and astonishment on any dance floor.

reminiscent of a time where we were releasing 4-tracks sampler every month (remember the secret gems from the vault) it is naturally that we thought about a various artists sampler in order to introduce the new wild bunch. julian m, is french and is taking over right now, releasing here his first track on briquerouge, but the man is no beginner, having released on catwash, homecoming, denote, to name but a few and of course recently on our own rz muzik, his music is deep, acid, techy and ready to please any crowd, ange siddhar is working for laboratory records and works with legendary artists such as ron carroll, paul johnson or chris count and now teams up with illan nicciani on several house project, they have a strong vinyl lovers community following their releases and just joined the label with the show

strong detroit influenced techno ep, feat. remixes by steven tang, stojche & vidinovski

following on from her highly acclaimed ett lp on editions mego klara lewis presents 4 new works which further her signature explorations of field recordings, electronics, rhythm, sound and atmosphere. here lewis exemplifies her uncanny ability to harness the world outside in order to reconstruct and re-present this as amorphous musical matter. these 4 new tracks exude a certain ambiguity where standard signposts such as rhythm, ambience, texture, light and dark remain as elusive as they are present. whilst bypassing passive or photographic representation of the source material these works withhold a strong emotional quality resulting in a confident and at times brutal musical manifestation. as suggested by the title, msuic resides in a zone at once familiar and slightly off kilter, a world of lewis devising in which the listener is warmly encouraged to enter and explore. msuic is another superb collection of music as fantastic matter.

annanan follows up his strong debut on the forbidden planet label with another crunched up techno three tracker on the pinkman label.
