what can be said about the girl whose greatest friend was the mist? it can be said she was never short of adventure, for each time the mist cleared, it had a new surprise. rabbits and rocking horses came out of hats the size of hills, armies of ants played in marching bands, deer danced, giraffes juggled, elephants tap-danced atop the moon, flowers bloomed in the sky, and stars shone on the ground, because, why cant down be up? with the mist there was always the kind of hocus pocus that twisted itself into a pocus hocus, a shenanigan or a hijinks so high it could not be jinxed, but it had to be jumped. by a fish flown by a boy from out of town. it was enough to make her giddy with happy.

tale & tone channels lee and hoj’s experiences exploring the world’s most sought after party destinations from the magic of hazy sunrises to the dim warehouses of underground’s past. the label acts as a bridge between the diverse environments in which dance music thrives and a showcase of the unique stories told by its sounds and devotées. the storybook ep will chart the tale & tone journey starting with a full vinyl release on july 21 and digital singles to follow. the ep begins with the mystic groove of daso and lutz’s better followed by the caribbean inspired ethereal soundscapes of cornucopia’s letter for poly. all day i dream mainstay lost desert has aligned with amari for the intricately layered, vocal driver hunter, while the revelatory soul of dance spirits wash me clean calls out to the calmer side of the electronic spectrum. the release is capped off with the late night affair of newman’s the sky and earth and in hoj’s own words on tale & tone, -lee and i are great friends and have been talking about starting a new project together for a long time

is the doctrine of the mind fully contained within the physical brain? or are there places that we can traverse, places between places, that exist outside of ourselves and the consensual reality we all seem to inhabit? close your eyes and just try it for a second. you may be surprised where you go… exploring this theme of journeying beyond our strict sense of self, label mates and friends tale of us and mind against have joined together once again to create a work that works, fittingly, well past the summation of it s parts. playing with tension and release and a restrained but expressive sonic palate that paints a picture without words, these accomplished artists from the life and death team bring us to a place that seems to surely exist. even if we might not be able to pinpoint exactly where that is

after the sensation caused by its last release, life and death comes back strong with another battle cry into the darkness. with a prized new member of the family, vaal, joining forces with a life and death mainstay, tale of us, the stage is set for another epic ep from the forward thinking label

tale of us, return to the life and death mothership with a new original piece featuring berlin duo, the/das.

after an impressive debut with thugfuckers >disco gnome<, life and death returns for round two as it once again gives us its slightly psychedelic after-hours take on dance pop. here it s with a remix ep that features two stellar remixes of danish band whomadewho. the first remix comes from tale of us, the young italian duo who were quickly recognized for their incredible remix of disco gnome and who are already being recognized as one of the most promising new electronic acts to come out of italy in the last 5 years. the second remix comes from michael meyer, a pillar of dance music and an outstanding producer who truly needs no introduction. with a dreamy voice and haunting melodies that creep into your brain and stay there until well after the lights have come back up, >every minute alone< seems set to establish the new label as strong voice leading the charge into new territories along the borderline of dance and pop.

steeped in the influence of flannery o’connor and tom waits, the album wrong-eyed jesus revealed jim white as a spiritual anatomist of the american south. no such place ups the ante revealing a broader, more diverse collection of songs about rage and redemption, depravity and dreams, dead cars and broken hearts. with tracks produced by morcheeba, sade co-founder andrew hale, and q-burns abstract message, along with stellar remixes by japanese underground guru, sohichiro suzuki of world standard and yellow magic orchestra fame, jim finds himself reveling in the unlikely zeitgeist of the new album. “this is a crackpot love letter to all those lost souls out there like me who won’t settle for wrong, but have no clue how to get to right.”
