while it may seem as though it has been a quiet year in the studio for brooklyn-based dj/producer greg schappert (aka donor), his first full-length album entitled against all on chicago-based prosthetic pressings, will prove otherwise.

impossibly rare sweet soul & funk from the vaults of miami s bold records (a subsidiary of the mighty t.k. disco label). there s scant information on reid inc as a group but the album boasts some gorgeous soulful melodies from the all female personnel and features stellar string & horn arrangements from miami studio stalwart mike lewis (blowfly, kc & the sunshine band, latimore, fern kinney) & is produced by the mighty clarence reid who has written, recorded & produced too many records to list here (betty wright, wilson pickett, dusty springfield, bobby byrd, gwen mccrae) throughout his 50+ year career. this is a real rarity, a record that fetches top, top dollar ($500 plus) on-line among soul, funk & disco aficionados. -what am i gonna do- has been comped numerous times but this is the first time the whole lp has been re-mastered & re-issued on vinyl (having previously only been re-released on cd in japan) brought to you in conjunction & with the permission of t.k. disco / henry stone music, miami usa.

recorded from rudys homemade studio in hampton virginia before he cut *searching for love* on harvest records around 1983, he did this wonderful modern synth winner. with rudy just having one pass on a reel of this song, we remastered it a little at the super disco hq to give it a brighter feel. sure its pretty lo-fi but the quality of the song writing playing and melodies are more than enough to let is see the joys of a turntable. this is once again a limited press.

london-based producer and dj warren brown, also known as wbeeza, has written three exclusive tracks for arma at his studio in peckham. the psychosomatic ep is named after its intense, dancefloor-oriented title track and will be released on arma. the vinyl, with accompanying cover artwork created by moscow surritualist protey temen, will hit major online retailers in march 2015.

after their debut on vakant we present you cw/as next offering, day of riddance. feeling right at home on parachute with its lack of genre-defining ties, the record features 3 road-tested live extracts alongside remixes from stroboscopic artefacts head honcho lucy and ilian tape boss dario zenker. cw/a is the live project from long-time friends and studio partners thomas (avatism) and francesco (clockwork) originally a live amalgamation of their solo material, it eventually evolved into a broader, more dynamic improvisa- tion-centric performance focused on experimenting around the outskirts of techno, jungle and electronica. we hope this release gives you an insight on both our vision and cw/as: a barrier-trashing wall of sound that goes from live settings into the studio and back.

theres no doubt that the apollonia trio are on fire, 2014 has been a whirlwind of berlin studio production, to reigning in ibiza, to dropping their debut album tour à tour to a rapturous reception. but straight back to the label with a new ep, they proudly present breaking talent diego krause. hailing from east berlin, krause already caused a stir amongst the heads with releases on his own label unison wax and co-owned beste modus, unison wax 02 swiftly landing itself a 4/5 on resident advisor and pricking up the ears of the apollonia boys. serving up three quality tracks very much in-keeping with apollonias own sound, you can easily imagine any one fitting perfectly into the later hours of their b2b2b sets. * right about now* establishes its presence with a powerful bassline and solid clap, before deep swirling synths enter, as does an echoing xylophone to truly euphoric effect. the slightly eerie, but mostly intoxicating, * dreams* brings a subtle groove and conjures up those early morning moments, while * manitu* the most peak-team of the three, is a bouncy number full of positive energy and a strong tech-house edge, that will go down a treat on any dancefloor

a couple of years into honing their skills in the studio and behind the booths, the very dynamic duo known as andhim returns to get physical to present us with ‘spayce, the latest specimen of their self-christened super house genre. raised on a steady diet of hip hop and jazz, the cologne-native pair have proven to many far and wide that they are entertainers at heart and envelope-pushers by nature. taking turntables where they seldom go to turn them into instruments, as well as the heavy use of samples and real-world inspiration to set their own creations apart, its fair to say that ‘spayce is just another example of the duos eclectic, eccentric inclinations. two tracks long and spanning from dance floor epic to quirky by way of some particular glitch, piano work and musical hiccups, ‘spayce ep is a very sweet addition to an already original discography.

sometimes it takes a little longer until things happen. talking the conjunctional studio joint of martin landsky and marco resmann entitled lava, now released under their collaborational project landsky & resmann, this single is one that has been overdue for quite a while and for a reason. a reason and shared history that essentially helped to shape and add momentum to marco resmanns career at an early stage a good 13 years ago when he wasnt even known under his real name but used the artistic alias phage dj- and production-wise.

mostly known for her work with trinity & beyond, having releases with the likes of luke hess, alexkid, xdb and klartraum. nightime drama brings to you a a new solo ep. from the australian based producer along with remixes from eric cloutier and label boss vibrio. for those of you who were in berlin in recent times may have caught one of her brilliant live or dj sets at tresor or studio r as well as playing at harry klein in munich.

schon auf dem debütalbum -foe- begeisterten ryan james und tomas greenhalf mit der kombination aus elektronischem minimalismus und der liebe zur klassischen popmusik. auf dem neuen werk -maximum entropy- bleiben man without country diesem stil treu und wirken deutlich mutiger und selbstbewusster. die zwölf neuen songs wurden von james und greenhalf im hauseigenen studio in wales aufgenommen, produziert und gemixt. wie auch schon auf dem vorgängeralbum, steht stets der fragile gesang von ryan james als zentrale konstante im mittelpunkt der songs, darum herum erbaut sich die ganz eigene klangwelt von man without country. gepresst auf transparentem, farbig gesprenkeltem vinyl, download-code inklusive.

every wph summer brings us…the wph summer special! well, some summer specials have been known to be released in the winter, with huge acclaim from the cold masses who had something to warm their hearts and souls to. so we figured we would release another summer special in the winter… the mysterious-but-not-really harry baldi kicks things off with ‘something for your mind’, a sample-ridden up tempo house workout that will also go down a treat on techno floors. solid yamaha bass anyone? up next we introduce a new belgian member to the wph family. dj miclem has quietly been working on his music and now it’s time to let some of it out of the studio and onto your decks. this is the vintage wph sound that got us on the map!

since its inception in 2009 slow motion has set the standard for new wave of italian dance music producers. with over 15 releases in the archive the italo/berlin based label is now about to drop its first ever compilation italian dance wave. bringing together some of the secret weapons that label boss franz underwear has had tucked away in his record bag with brand new tracks from the likes of clap rules, bottin and riders of the lost arp this compilation packs a mighty punch with its 22 tracks.

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

following his appearance (albeit in remixed form) on the debut 12- from keyboard masher s pleasure unit imprint, norwegian eccentric skatebard is given the honour of releasing the label s second ep. apparently all three tracks are vintage cuts from the archive, previously unheard but original recorded straight to tape in his home studio. there s naturally much to enjoy, beginning with the scandolearic-goes-rave synth-house madness of -react 2 rhythm- - all urgent, swirling beats, epic synthesizer melodies and mid- 90s us garage influences. there s more surging, nu-disco goes-house fare to be found on -it goes on & on (the bassline)-, while -pingu- is a joyous chunk of chugging scandolearica blessed with tactile shaker percussion and a jaunty, rock solid synth bassline.

elektra release of charlotte gainsbourgs third studio album titled irm. the title is derived from m.r.i, which reflects the medical procedure charlotte had to go through after suffering a head injury in a water skiing accident in 2007. the album is charlottes most personal to date, and is produced by acclaimed grammy nominated artist/multi-instrumentalist beck. what started as a brief recording session between charlotte gainsbourg and beck ended up to be the body of work that is irm. over the course of a year and a half of writing and recording together, becks role grew to encompass all aspects of the creative process. he worked seamlessly with charlotte co writing the lyrics and produced and mixed the recording. (this is the first time he has ever been so involved in another artists work.)

caul is the new album from last harbour. based in the northern english city of manchester, last harbour play music with a dark, gothic heart yet their songs are always beautiful and transcendent. after working with producer richard formby (wild beasts, spacemen 3, ghostpoet) on two previous albums, the band took time out after touring to build their own studio in 2013. this new album was recorded in that self-created space over a year between 2013-4 and bears testament to a patient and detailed recording process that allowed time for experimentation and careful arrangement.
the vinyl lp includes a code for free download of the full album.

what happens when two legends lock themselves in the trope studio for two days and have fun you hold the result in your hands or have it on your speakers right now. we think we don t have to introduce the label boss thomas p. heckmann and his mate ramon zenker (hardfloor and countless more) to you obviously, so we let the music speak for itself this time ! and afu limited just has it s 50. release and 10 years since the launch as afu limited !!!

session victim love what they do. the pure joy they get from writing, producing and performing their unique blend of underground dance music oozes from their very pores, translating into pure good vibes for anyone witnessing the duo in action. as a label, we couldn’t be more proud to see their growth and development from a couple of self confessed semi-reclusive studio geeks into the globe-trotting djs and headlining live-act they have now become. with their second lp for delusions of grandeur about to drop it is easy to hear their constant drive to push themselves emanating from their new material.

after a string of stellar releases with proper trax, cult trip, and mystical disco, grey people graces cgi with his latest. raised in chicago and currently residing in nashville, alex michalski treats us to another side of his sound as he completely forgoes sampling to give us four tracks of raw, stripped-down machine funk. the tunes presented here are culled from various hot and humid sessions in his home studio, armed with an arsenal of equipment old and new and cultivating a sound as diverse as it is nasty. witness the pluralist industrial jackin’ utopia that is grey people—from the crunchy, dissonant piano stomp of *trench foot*, and the equally crunchy, driving, new wave dirge of *moonstruck*, to the cosmic drift and thump of *lock the box* and the funked up fm slap-bass of *wild intentions*.

the nose of clarity (one + two) is obscure and mystical techno with a hypnotism rhythm construct. part one is coming for the long nights in the clubs and bringing darkness dance moves. part two is more deeper and darker with a slowly trippy and layered loop sound. on the flip side the obsession (from don«t«be on acid ) dwntmpos rework is downtempo sound in perfection. the rhythm is going straight in the head and bring the deepness with a slowly pitched vocal in front of all understanding. the second rework is more dub influenced with warm chords, delays and echos from a other galaxy. the vinyl is hand stamped and numbered and comes with a a4 graphic art print. mastering by xergio c—rdoba at eternal midnight mastering studio madrid, spain

johannes heil and markus suckut team up for the new cocoon release and what they came up with is simply amazing! a techno monster! the two high profile producers seem to merge various techno influences out of the last 15 years here but they manage it to do this with their very own hand writing. the opening track intuition appears like robert hood and speedy j helped out triggering the right sounds in the studio.

home invasion is the new label from real tone man franck roger, a man whose career has scaled the full depths of house music over the past decade or so. evidently seeking a new challenge, the parisian s new imprint promises to adhere to a vehemently underground way of working, with every ep released upfront on vinyl-only terms and produced exclusively on analogue equipment. this time franck collaborate with one of the french house hero in the parisian scene today and also label boss of bass culture, resident dj at the famous rex club…this guy needs no introductions, please make some noise for mister d julz. franck and julien are living in the same district in paris and sometimes talked about doing a collaboration, see what can come thru few moments spend in the studio, mixing their own influences of todays vision of house music, they finally took their time to come with 3 brand new tracks that comes from pick time stuff ( cityzoo) to deep and dubby vibe on * dubwize* or even the very old school chicagoan * in the rush*.. this ep will surely please most of the real house music lovers from the past and today

while being a huge multi-single in its own right, this record is also just a tiny fraction of tracks to come out of slavakis london studio. expect playful mixture of warm enigmatic sounds for your mind, body and soul. undeniable deepness for any house music connoisseur.

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.
