that summer i developed somewhat of an obsession with tonto’s expanding head band after having seen them perform at the big chill festival that year. the music blew my mind. later upon my return to civilisation and the ensuing research which then began in earnest i became as much blown away by the enormous t.o.n.t.o. (the original new timbral orchestra) modular synthesizer that had created the music as i was by the music itself. built in the early 70s, it s still the largest synthesizer around today. with the live show still resonating in my head i tracked down everything tonto had ever recorded. one of these tracks was an obscure outtake from the time t.o.n.t.o.’s creators, malcolm cecil and robert margouleff, were producing and engineering for stevie wonder in the ‘70s(https://youtu.be/wuaszff7yq0). the track, bittersweet, only ever appeared on a highly limited self-released cd put together to coincide with their appearance at the big chill. consequently i featured it on a few mixes i did over the years and invariably i’d be asked “what’s that track?” by those with an ear for something unique. and invariably these same people, many of them djs, would turn away disgruntled when i informed them it was cd only. although i didn t know it at the time, the seed was definitely sown for this vinyl compilation that you now hold in your hands.

ghosts/spirits is the result of many exorcism sessions, most of them performed unknowingly. the tracks are numbered based on their order of collection. ghosts are generally subtle and linger around more than spirits, which are said to go straight to your mind’s heart. whether you long for a naked dance in the forest, or a subaquatic journey through mermaids and sunken ships, you are welcome to indulge in our musical exorcism, in the name of the tribal forces which brought us rhythm, and the spiritual forces which brought us together. ah,… man

nathan fake and wesley matsell are both producers best known for their releases on border community - nathan fake has been putting out psychedelic permutations on dance music since 2003 for the label, while matsell recently released the blissful total order of being ep for them earlier in 2014. cambria instruments is a new label venture from the pair, and for the first release they have teamed up for a split 12- of kaleidoscopic electronic sounds. nathan fake s contribution black drift starts things off, an initially inauspicious tripping beat gathering momentum and morphing into a far-out piece of fuzzy house underpinned by sunken low-end rumbles. it s the kind of brilliantly wide-eyed track we have come to expect from the producer. over on the flip, wesley matsell s bismuth is a more shadowy, moody affair, a tight techno rhythm holding things together while synths spin wildly. a highly expressive, lysergic trip and one of his finest productions to date. all in all, you couldn t hope for a stronger start from a new label.

egyptrixx gives a glimpse into his forthcoming second album on night slugs with the vinyl-only cut *water (reduced)*. the hi-definition crystalline world of his previous album *bible eyes* has sunken, submerged. *water* takes place in some vast molten expanse, a subterranean electrical storm expressed as acid-tech. this 12 inch features the reduced dub, stripped of melody to for full hypnotic effect. the full version can be heard on the forthcoming album, titled *a/b til infinity*. on the flip: helix keeps bootlegging our records. he cuts up the masters and edits them up like fruity loops lego, applying the same post-timbaland stutter-logic that was amplified so dramatically in 03-06 grime. here he puts his hand to egyptrixx blastbeats-heavy *adult*, also taken from the forthcoming *a/b til infinity* lp. the results are extremely punishing but compelling listening.

schallbox sends his latest release into the race and for that the gentlemen of doppelt gemoppelt admit responsibility. in the original, it rattles and hisses only the way in the rhythm entablature, a blessed onefinger- chord acts as kerosene in the sound-tank and the resilient little background melodies create together with the interspersed vocal fragments, a deep and tragic scene which brings every in themself sunken dancefloor in vibrations.

hailing from the free swinging hills of san francisco, established dj and producer alland byallo has created his own unique sound out of a love for deep, soulful house combined with more edgy techno moments. from his own successful nightlight label he has released a quality catalogue including his debut artist album last year. of course it was only a matter of time until his talents were noticed by poker flat boss steve bug, and the results are this briliant 2 tracker, which also marks alland‘s arrival in his new home of berlin. welcome to town mr byallo! ‚discovaries‘ has a healthy amount of berlin‘s reduced techno affinity rooted within its phasing, growing p-funk waves. tense, moody and of course drenched with attention to detail, this is a grower in the true poker flat style. the sunken, murkier undertones of ‚shipwrecked‘ begin as a darker moment in techno, however gradually unfold and surface into a shining, tripped out afterhours anthem.

excellent deep minimal clicker tunes
