lil jabba isnt like the rest of them. while they are busy joining the dots between house and techno or whatever is safe right now, he is throwing paint all over the page. he is not american, but he is affiliated with chicagos teklife crew (dj spinn, dj rashad, etc.) and divides his time between baltimore and brooklyn, exhibiting his visual art, riding around with his bike gang and making some of the most hypnotic juke and footwork you will ever hear. local action have been figuring out a release with him for over a year - eventually an ep wasnt enough, and they persuaded him to make it a full-length album, scales. some of scales has already seen the light of day through youtube or limited cassette releases, some of it is unheard. some tracks sound cleaner than others, that is because they are newer. that is how these things work. what is consistent throughout scales is the quality: across 12 tracks, jabba flips, twists and inverts the footwork template with endless layers of samples, gurgled vocal tags, jazz licks and whatever else he feels like. these arent trax, they are tapestries.

they come from livorno, italy but these four young men seem to have landed from detroit in the mid-90s. raksasa is the debut ep of the talkin robots who have been remixed by the dextrous brain of jerome sydenham who has once again shown immeasurable talent with soul research.
analogic and definitely old school, is the sound of the original mix while sydenhams mix is dark and refined: deep techno for all hours.

since jasper & maarten played at one of the first ever-concrete partys called twsted ii, they knew this parisian movement was something rare and unique. as an ode they made these tracks keeping in mind these magic early sunday morning hours. the result is two melodic and atmospheric influenced tracks. their brother in crime makam is responsible for the remix. machine soul techno music are the keywords of this paris-amsterdam affair.

fresh new uk label with two killer tracks that will turn some heads. amazing piece of house music that is working like madd without using the standard cliches. a accomplishment by this young producer neinzer in these days of looking back! opening with a funked up track that goes somewhere between things we know from shake and recloose but comparing it to others isnt doing the track any justice. flip side cranks the tempo up and gives a mad techno piece with some sample trickery. best start a label could wish!

cavaan is the alter ego of a rather well known berlin producer and his fellow from milan. the duo debuts with their very much loved project. they feature a studio-recorded wonderful vocal on this hypnotically modern percussive house affair titled black snow. the original track grooves on some free swinging retro percussions and beats from the 80s machinery and a softly moving house-beat making this a very subtle killer for any dancefloor. while the vocals carry the track as light as a feather it is after the breakdown that things get really musical - you will hear yourself while listening the melodies and sequences. for the remixes turdjr has aligned a high-quality and diverse array of a current top producer. one of heidelbergs coolest kids on the block, lopazz knows that every track gets better with a lot of handmade music-and he sure is right in his interpretation of black snow. last not least i is under on the flip which is one of these tracks that sucks the listener in so deep that there is simply no escape: repetitive yet constantly changing and constantly grooving while remaining very pure! this release is filled with tracks that will long echo on the dancefloor!

decks tip! after the great success of veitengrubers supervision ep as the first degree record, the label now comes up with the second hit ep by a very well-known artist - nick curly. the smart owner of the famous and dearly beloved labels cecille and 8bit thereby is giving one of his rare guest performances on other labels. in addition these three tracks are his first ep after his debut album >between the lines< in 2012. by this record, we will divide the long and desperately awaited summer in three parts to cater for all tastes - deep (time will tell), techhousy (people) and a tooly (beat the clock) - available digitally and on vinyl. the time will tell ep is the typical nick curly sound with a fresh note of 2013. so we radially spread warmth and power with sun and sound deeply into your mind.

two stripped down tools in karlovak style, perfect for sweaty sessions. dont sleep on these...

gravetemple was formed in 2006 as a side-project of the band sunn o))) by oren ambarchi, stephen o malley and attila csihar. the group formed initially to tour in israel summer 06, creating several recordings which eventually became the holy down album, which was released on southern lord recordings in 2007. at the time of the israel tour, the lebanon war started and was in action. in summer 08 the trio reformed together with the addition of australian drummer matt skitz sanders for a short european tour culminating at a headlining performance at supersonic festival in birmingham. in late 2009 the original trio reconvened for a special one-off concert at londons institute of contemporary arts. april 2013 marks the first set of live action since that period, and a new chapter in the ongoing system of the related network.
ambient/ruin was created with the 2008 quartet, elements of tape collage, concrete, field recordings blend within a strong geographically diverse (parts were recorded in japan, australia, paris and israel) suite of heavy minimalist/maximalist music, black/death metal and drone. the culmination of these efforts become the music, literally, of sadistik exekution meeting phill niblock.

on the original one, a decadent intro with swishing reverse cymbals, create like a perfect countdown for the incoming hypnotic melody. these two elements, along with a deep half-step beat, continue their propagation for the whole track, made with a certain dose of style and precision.
the real explosion comes with the acclaimed remix made by artikal (j:kenzo & mosaix) who have masterfully dubbed out the version increasing the kicks, making a real runaway hit, already played and supported by many djs as youngsta and amit on rinsefm.

lord tusk makes his vinyl debut with the natural partnership ep the first in a series of releases on the newly minted levels imprint. a veteran of londons underground as a selector, lord tusks influences run deep: electro, hip-hop, old jack swing, film scores, p-funk, roots & culture and dub. a devotee of sound system culture and martial arts, both are reflected in his approach to music making which is free of restrictions. there are no specific tempos, genre limitations or fixed methods he works by. with lord tusk it is all about sensation, emotion, stimulation and inspiration from the sounds, instruments and effects. these are raw sounds for the big speakers.

dj legend, producer icon, avant-gardist, pioneer. only few influenced the music scene of the past 28 years as deeply as pascal feos. he is responsible for 4 solo albums, over 200 releases and hundreds of remixes. still his hunger for sound experiments is satisfied by no means. although it has been a bit quiet around him in the past few months, you might rather call this the quiet before the storm. feos wouldnt be feos, if it wouldnt have been for him to have his fingers on controllers and knobs on a daily basis, creating and tweaking new sounds. finally the time has come. pascal is back, and he gentlemanly wrapped up a present for you, marked departed 2 return. what is in it? not only feos fifth album, but also a musical answer to the question what he has experienced and what he had to go through in these three creative and self-reflecting years of his musical hiatus.

since the release of his impressive debut album, rush of the moment, on our x-series, agazzi continues to deliver innovative music and to develop his sound in new directions. the album received a warm reception from the music scene and confirmed aggazi as an artist who always pushes his concept and vision to the next level. in accordance, agazzi is now experimenting with several exciting and fresh collaborations. it was from one of these collaborations that ex terrestre was born, a project that brings us 2 expansive mixes with daniele papini that re-interpret modern techno-swing. to give the boost to this ep we asked to our extremely talented sonja moonear to rework a still unreleased agazzi tracks.

hardly a rookie these days – perhaps more of an intrinsic part of the great british renaissance and current techno climate, tom dicicco brings his new label run out run to the table with a superb 1st release. treading a more layered path than on his previous outings, tom shows his teeth here with brilliantly creeping, menacing riffs at the fore while retaining the house and dub sensibilities in the rhythm section that have already gained him much support – certainly something for everybody here on this worryingly confident own label debut!

emanating from japan, and discovered by erid d (of rub n tug fame), these re-edit masterclasses would never have gotten outside of their native market. luckily a helping hand from one of nycs most hyped party throwers has guaranteed a wider audience! as they their penultimate release in the alphabet themed series, we are treated to another duo of uncompromising and dancefloor ready edit delights.

vinyl only and strictly for those who know! seven limited is back now for its 4th installment, just in time for the summer months and what a release they have for us this time. jackmaster k makes his debut on the belfast based imprint and delivers 4 classic, deep & underground garage cuts. with releases on skylax, midnight love club, music is love and made fresh daily, the london based producer is in a league of his own. many are duplicating the classic garage sound these days, but no one is replicating it like mr k. think along the lines of early todd terry, mood ii swing, tuff jam, jeremy sylvester and youre only half way on the journey this quality new producer is taking you on. as usual with seven limited, vinyl only, strictly for the heads!!

2 years ago this producer was approached by miss kittin to remix a track of his choice, from her recently completed solo album. for various reasons, these mixes have never seen the light of day, apart from sporadic airings in said producers dj sets. now, finally, these unofficial remixes are released lovingly, on vinyl only, in a finite number, with the permission of the kittin herself... btw, already played by dxon

i m going to spoil everyones fun here and now and tell you (if you hadnt already worked it out) that it is luke, spelled backwards. simple. why luke? again, simple - the young gentleman who penned these glorious ditties goes by the name of luke campion. a name to remember.
you may remember campions debut release - apparitions this time last year. lukes sound has matured and developed since then, and aprwax004 is his latest statement piece.

for its 15 years old, qalomota rec. brings fresh blood into the family. fab_o is the new young producer who produced this excellent ep where you could taste his skills. old school house with groovy bass and voice on a side, you will be surprised on b side with these 2 others beautiful tracks. no need to speak or write about music just listen and feel it. house music for body and soul as usually on qalomota records!

nice price deal !!! lux rec once again explores the underground of analog possibilities. blomeier is a extraordinary musician playing mostly live and recording on tape cassette, not having a plan but letting the music find a way out in itself. so these three tracks came out. record is limited to 300 copies, download code included.

this is the second vinyl for the spanish label that is connected to discos paradiso record shop. agony forces (lycaon) express their experience better than ever. they are growing more and more. very high quality of modern techno. one of the two remixes is signed by an artist who doesnt need any introduction: ness. his style is unmistakable. the surprise is the other remix signed by dark vektor, pure electro that we dont hear much of these days.

this is his first vinyl ep. these tracks are his special works while his all productions.especially about mind piano is produced for people who got a japanese terrible victim of march 11th on 2011. iori had strong image of healing them mind on that track,and he hoped make them relax and feel comfortable from deep sounds

hot british rising star james barnsley (get physical, catwash, esperanza) delivers his moan debut with this peak time dance floor bomb frigid which certainly does the business. to add to this heavy weight release there are two monster remixes from franco cinelli & luca bear and these guys need no introduction. also included on the ep is a solid remix from alessio mereu of james barnsleys beat yourself. this release is a record bag must and is certain to tear up the dance floor!

more than six years into his career after several eps and a full album, there isn’t much known about ben gibson, and he is clearly keeping it that way with intent. gibson first emerged on jeff mills’ experimental, influential 6277 sublabel but then again vanished into the ether, he only reappeared three years later on perc trax, even more surprisingly with a full-length. since then, he’s gone on to steadily more notice with perc’s imprint, sect records, and most recently m_rec ltd in spite of the continuing lack of information. exposure isn’t the most important thing for us at chronicle though, and after hearing these five tracks, we saw exactly what it is that drew mills to him from the beginning. it is a sound that we find a perfect fit for the techno futurism of our chronicle series, and here we offer a platform for gibsons more sci-fi, ethereal sounding material, exclusively on vinyl for the fifth edition of our sublabel.

after the great release from label owner samann, traxx underground is proud to serve you a name that all of you will know for sure nys finest a guy from new york who did many releases in the 90s with different alias (victor simonelli, cloud 9, groove committee ect) one track among the strongest do you feel me. back now after 20 years with these three sensational tracks.
pressing on 170 gram vinyl.

ltd 2013 repress !!
illusion recordings is bringing an absolute stomper from the appropriately titled ny stomp with a track called >the ny house track<. a massive track inspired by new york, jersey house music and designed to get every party rocking! ny stomp is a special project by gerd (clone/4lux) who made this track to add to his live set with no intention to release it. it was just a cut made for his live sets and done as an hommage to the early days of ny and nj house. however after playing this at a party from the illusion guys in leeds he got tortured by the guys to make him release it... and lets be honest... it would have been a shame if these cuts never made it to vinyl! one the flip side a slightly more introvert track calles >can you feel it<. on remix duty its nicholas and dj aakmael both doing an excellent job by smoothening things up and take things a bit deeper. proper house music!

upcoming release from todd osborn on jared wilsons 7777 label. the a-side track 303 explores some dark acid territory, while the b-side 909 is a melodic house track in osborns signature style. like previous 7777 releases, we do not expect these to last long.

a heavy lead rhythm provides the foundation from which spiralling elements project. they coruscate, pulse with light and collapse inwards, until just the echoes of dub2 are left. rising from these depths, the sharpness of distribution theorys crisp hi-hats and snapping claps provide forward momentum to a series of stabs. the house element.
beginning as a mystery but ending as a certainty, the ethereal theme that opens untitled document gives way as it increases velocity, shaking and rattling under the strain. the apex. hands reach, seeking, the elusive moment has already passed, all left is pure. bliss. circumflex kicks hard, a final statement of intent. powerful. corrosive. this is late night techno, played over a system on which the squelching acid-lines converge within the mind. the body jacks.

lost paradise delivers a modern execution of our post-disco dance music culture, maintaining references to the past and looking for the oasis on the horizon.
lp003 begs the question, do you feel good? we think after playing these, you are going to feel a lot better. volta cab presents i feel good in my skin + i feel loved, two deep and groovy house cuts with remixes from severino & ray mang, dead rose music company and kohib. the 12 inch release contains deep, peak, dark and cerebral flavors to suit a variety of your house music needs. we hope you enjoy and remember, from the moment i walked through the door, i knew what i was looking for, a party that would take me away!

originally released in 1999, these two cuts from the rare fruits of the spirit ep get reissued on the noble square imprint. the first track is a groovin deep house vibe with powerful spoken word parts. changes on the flipside is a splendid melody-filled deep tune with a classic sju sound.

zeitgeber is a german word that, loosely translated, means synchronizer. its also the new project of electric deluxe head speedy j and stroboscopic artefacts boss lucy. both artists make some of the most forward-thinking techno around, but zeitgeber sees them pushing together even further into uncharted territories.

uexkull is a new project from dave conner. these four tracks have been selected as an introduction to his sound. any interpretation is left to the listener. cut at 45rpm by rashad at d & m berlin

ok, first of all i want to reveal a myth: these infotexts are mostly writtenby the labelowners themselves, not by hard-working editors. so what happens, when the guy behind a label releases his own music? well, either he is a well-organised deadline-machine and he asks somebody capable of doing this stupid job, or he realizes:
>oh fuck the distribution whats to do their work and they needed thissheet weeks ago...< so in the end, hes gotta do it himself: of course,now i could tell you how great this record is (what it is!) and what ahell of a motherfucker i am (also true!)... but i prefer telling yousentimental other bullshit instead... :)
this ep marks a newbeginning in my career. since some time now, >the fog burns off< and we get more and more stable in the buisness. last year we were on the road quite a bit and we found many new friends. people from other cities, who believe in the same things, who do similar stuff and who are of the same kidney as we are. so that makes me very happy, which reflects in the music. for the first time i feel like coming home, although we are at the beginning of our journey into the industry yet.

dutch producer switch needs no intro, he produced tracks together with dutch producers lenzman, icicle for labels such as soul:r, shogun audio and cia records. these three tracks give a fine example of switch s production skills. limited 140 gramms clear vinyl pressing comes with full artwork sleeve (+ high quality disco innersleeve) and including a mp3 download code for all three tracks. all tracks mastered by stuart hawkes, metropolis london. highly recommended.

straight out of a midlands bunker, we bring you he/at, and this 4 track debut hits hard.
no clue yet who has actually produced these tracks, but this is an accomplished ep to say the least, showing serious range and floor-filling sensibilities with an experimental edge and a serious bottom end. 4 tracks of fresh, raw, intense techno, tried and tested by a select few that have it.

the allstar collaboration continues, following the previous bestselling golf channel releases from these two heavyweights rhythm odyssey is a production alias of the one and only dean meredith (chicken lips, goat dance etc) here he has teamed up with dr dunks (eric duncan, rub-n-tug) with a view to concocting the very finest analogue assembled proto house and modern disco.
