leao is the house alter ego of respected tech producer robotneedsoil. here he supplies two killer house tracks that are given the remix treatment by two of the industries current favourites, kindimmer & jacob b. the ep lifts off with the original mix of drop that and wastes no time getting down to business. tough beats and throbbing bass meets cool stabs and vocal stabs urging you to -take your body back-. the jacob b remix of the same track is ruthless. taking no prisoners with a sub heavy mix that never veers from dance floor destruction. the b-side kicks off with leao s second original offering. this is house with heavy footwear. something more stomps, elbows and swings it s way through an intricately placed web of percussion. kindimmer s alien remix subtly uses elements of the original while at the same time segueing into new territory. its deep and eerie, soulful and moody. all the things that have made the berlin based greek one of the most sought after remixers in europe

after a long break of releasing music on eintakts sublabel * rare* we are happy to present the comeback with the new rare vinyl, produced by bendejo. the things you do ep combines tracks with a chordy deephouse mood and classical, maybe even a bit experimental ideas. the splendid voice of irina radovic, who benne met at a recording of her band at university rounds up the house vibes and gives tracks for the dance floor (things you do, dont care) whilst dubidu and ecpecially autumn afternoon make you feel rather dreamy, still having the house groove going on.

rising label releases its second ep with an original track by victor martinez, another artist from the agency, that gives life to this record and gets completed by remixes from oscar mulero, ness and adriana lopez. the original track by victor, -anything called dead consumerism”, is all about visceral and obscure techno with broken rhythms and high levels of hypnotism. following, we can find oscar mulero’s remix, a version that suggests another groove but maintains the essence of the original making it a serious and effective weapon. on the b side we can find ness’ remix, a track that captures you since the beginning. deep, elastic and elegant at the same time where hypnotism reigns and this few characteristics of the italian producer. adriana lopez closes the ep with a more percussive and energetic version. fine techno that catches you from the first beat, a perfect track as a dj.

kiwanuka, a 25 year-old uk native of ugandan heritage, was raised in north london where he split his time between session work and local gigs. along the way, having found footing as a solo artist, he was signed to communion records, then polydor, and has since performed throughout europe and north america too touring in direct support of adele. he made his way through nashville this past summer with just enough pause and aplomb to commit these morsels to tape. the a-side *you ve got nothing to lose* is an original composition, featuring the buzzards dominic davis on upright bass and cory younts on piano, joined also by fellow balladeer lillie mae rische on fiddle. their contributions transform his work into a stone-cold groove with almost orchestral underpinnings, making it a fitting extension of their previous blue series. the single also features a chilling rendition of townes van zandts infamous *waitin round to die* on the b-side, the perfect compliment to the timbre and mood of the a-side.

rising concern dan shake has achieved what no other has in over a decade: with his debut release in the music world, he has become the very first producer without a detroit heritage or residency to land a release on moodymanns prestigious record label mahogani music. based in london, the former leeds student secured the feat in a charmingly anachronistic fashion: having just watched kenny dixon jr perform alongside the 3 chairs at dimensions festival, dan simply handed over a demo cd with a collection of unreleased tracks. moodymann was hooked almost instantantly, taking the first plunge on welcoming an outsider into his tight-knit crew of detroit strong artists. citing influence from the layered percussive rhythms of afrobeat pioneers such as tony allen and fela kuti, the soul-drenched sampling of j dilla and the kind of dark, dense grooves laid out by contemporary producers such as flying lotus and motor city drum ensemble, dans situation in winding up on a label renowned for encompassing all those traits is obviously a blessing for the young producer.

we’re really excited about this unusual ep from the unusually talented photomachine, his first outing on wicked bass. ‘black motorcycle’ a dark but deep number, measuredly working its way down into to a solid groove before it lifts its eyes skyward for a breakdown made up of delicate synthwork. ‘good news…bad dope’ is a more skittish cut, with its percussive elements laying low in the mix, whilst circling synths provide a menacing mood that juxtaposes itself with a well-placed vocal sample.

black l3g0 is the new alias of talented up and coming budapest producer, gnork. his previous releases on blind jacks journey are fetching for top euro/pound/dollar on discogs right now! he has also released a great ep on the ultra-cool bokhari label (including a vakula remix). we have had our eye out for him since day one and, thankfully, we managed to compile four new tracks of his on this release! expect deep emotional house at its best!
