70% deal , last copies left.... sascha braemer s first record on dirtybird was a very big success gathering support from a wide array of djs. as our very first german artist, we were very happy when he sent over this super hot follow-up ep. true to dirtybird style both tracks on the ep are thematic, but these also show some restraint, not getting too silly or gimmicky with the themes. grounded in heavy funk kick drum grooves, sascha has delivered another set of bombs for sure. the train grows from a simple solid groove to a massive whistling peak, then back to the deep rooted funk. fly flip is a play on bug sounds, bringing a more laid back vibe to the table. both of the tracks are the kind of thing that could be played in any set from techno to deep house which really says a lot for the universal appeal of sascha s solid beats. we hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

after the success of their first release, dsc – far reaching/too hard, holding hands is back with their sophomore outing and as before it is taking no prisoners. inspired by a nicolas lutz set as he warmed up fabric for villalobos a couple years back, the furnace has a break beat that will push the subs of any club to the limit. with every build and drop it increases in momentum until you are left with no choice but to throw down on the dance floor with unbridled passion. the furnace may be all about the big beat but it is no one trick pony. the tune has a depth and weirdness to it that will certainly keep you coming back for more… the sorcerer is a collaboration with good friend of dsc’s, guava. it is made up largely of recorded percussion and vocals at dsc’s studio in south london, which gives it a very special swing on the dance floor. the track lulls you into a false sense of security for the first third before finally letting the big freakiness out of the box. this is one for any dj that wants to leave clubbers going nuts and scratching their heads at the same time. both tracks are produced and sculpted for the club. they want big sound systems and dark rooms. close your eyes, hold hands and experience transcendental space flight…

since his untimely death at the all too young age of 32 the world has grown to appreciate the work of j dilla even more than when he was alive. there’s an ethereal quality to jay dee’s works, part boom bap but more mellow. mellow, but never soft. and dilla never stopped making beats, his mpc was by his side until the very end. it now resides in the smithsonian. due the prolific nature of his beat making, the world is blessed to have stacks of dilla material – some coming to light even this many years after his passing. in the world of hip hop, no one’s mother is more famous that ma dukes. go ahead, name check chuck d’s mom or chance the rapper’s mom or ti’s mother – without hitting google. and one of the reasons we all know ma dukes is her tireless effort to maintain dilla’s legacy. this release is yet another step in that direction. presented here, from the official ma dukes collection, are 15 works by jay dee from deep in the vaults, being released on vinyl for the first time.

as noted on another release (see ropin), cornell campbell has enjoyed one of the longest-running careers of any jamaican singer, and he is blessed with a readily identifiable style too. he began his career for clement ‘sir coxsone’ dodd in 1956, when rhythm and blues held sway in jamaica, and later cut some ska songs for king edwards. he then passed through the sensations in the rock steady phase and worked as a solo singer at treasure isle, before returning to studio one with the eternals, scoring huge hits such as ‘stars’ and ‘queen of the minstrel’ as the 60s gave way to the 70s. his greatest phase of popularity was them brokered by hit-making producer bunny lee, who kept him on top right through the 1970s and into the 80s. the 1975 album dance in a greenwich farm was first issued on the grounation label in the uk. along with a re-working of ‘stars’ re-titled ‘the sun,’ a re-working of ‘queen of the minstrel’ as ‘girl of my dreams’ and the sound system opus that is the title track, the album has the boastful ‘conquering gorgon’ and a number of keenly-observed cover tunes, including a cut of the gaylads’ ‘no good girl,’ a version of the heptones’ ‘why did you leave me’ and a killer cut of the uniques’ ‘watch this sound’ (based on ‘for what it’s worth’ by buffalo springfield).

ruff cherry comes back after probably too long on midgar, with forest of thorns ep. the record has been in the making since more than a year, but will finally hit the stores in a month. after the well received ritual ep (september 2015) the cork based producer delivers once again messages on behalf of some obscure alien civilizations.

nyc s disco powerhouse west end records should need no intro. the home of too-numerous-to-list club classics for over 30+ years is still impacting today on what we know to be club culture. the label started by one mel cheren (rip) with assistance from larry levan and more way back in 1976 is still held in such high regard today with it s catalogue constantly being played, rediscovered, reinterpreted and loved by waves and waves of new fans and admirers. the west end story vol. 4 is an essential overview of this most iconic of labels and some of it s more under the radar output, following on it s from it s predecessor the quality bar is obviously set extremely high, one only has to look over the tracklist to see the names and titles that are included! rare and overlooked cuts from taana gardner, sparque, forrrce, inez brooks and more make up 4 joyous sides of essential forward looking post disco classics - we re talking late 70 s, early 80 s, synths, mega overdubs, left-field arrangements and anything and everything in-between. a truly golden era of dance music history, names like tom moulton, francois k, tee scott and more make up some of the talent featured on this flawless selection of goodies. oh, and for the record (no pun intended) these are all the extended mixes, 12- versions and special cuts, all killer - no filler! all tracks featured re-mastered, re-pressed and re-released with the permission of and in conjunction with west end records, new york city / bmg.

3 of shadow child’s connected collaboration album tracks get a makeover from rimbaudian, mj cole and bodhi. rising talent rimbaudian reworks the only solo track from the project, steak fingers, and takes the original bumping stripped back groove on a more melodic journey with its stunning arpeggios and new string parts. the backbone of the original remains but be prepared to take a trip to a new stratosphere, with his stripped version which is included too. bodhi step up next to remix gacid, twisting and turning the original acid patterns and grooves to make a special rework that gives a nod to early detroit with new drum programming and pads. the welsh duo bring the heat. mj cole delivers what must be one of his finest remixes. um the collaboration with bodhi, already offers a trip that flirts with jungle, lo-fi and the hypnotic but mj cole brings his signature vibe to the table with new keys, groove and provides something that feels as if it belongs in the realms of his seminal hit sincere.

femur s second release goes deeper into totally unsettling, dark and gloomy sounds. this time with one of our most valued fellow artists celldöd. we are proud to press the track -terrorbalans- for the first time on vinyl. it had been previously released on cassette by celldöd himself on his own platform brutal disciplin. he has also included two unreleased tracks, the machine-like -svart sira- and -socker-, dirtier and naughtier. the closure to this second reference is a magnificent remix by swedish duo fishermen, originally released on brutal disciplin, too.

andi and david first met in a forest beside a psychedelic castle in the wild west of scotland and soon bonded over a love of wrong speeders, balearic gems hidden in plain sight and the odder side of the dancefloor before djing together just moments after andi was unraveled from a burning tarpaulin. a firm friendship and fun partnership was born. hailing from mancunia but for sometime an export to the usa, andi, for many years was one of the great things about new york city. a charming, low-key individual, a great, great dj and a graceful presence in the land of the overhyped and ego driven. andi held down the musical supervision of rock star games and was responsible for a lot of great music getting out to the gaming masses. he was a vital member of body and soul for the best part of 15 years, delivering infamous warm up sets for danny krivit, joaquin joe claussell and françois k, pedigree vibes... david, a music lover since birth, a record collector for more than quarter of a century and a reputation for being the first on the floor at any party. db s transition from dancer to dj didn t take too long and his selections of rare disco, oddball gems and panglobal pandemonium have seen him play back rooms, basements, festivals and freakouts throughout the land, whether running his own parties in glasgow or playing further afield alongside the likes of young marco, jayda g and moodymann.

two new winners from frankey & sandrino... you can hear the logical progression in their oeuvre and releasing them on their very own label marks another new step for sum over histories too.

we ve waited a long time to bring you this, and finally, tiger stripes presents the 6th release on his strange idols label, and what a track this is, so worth waiting for! from its beginnings as a moodymann secret weapon, you could already hear the potential for underground techno greatness. running is both haunting and seductive... underground but strangely familiar... artificial but still organic...a living breathing techno organism...a creature of the dark.... a siren s call... let yourself be drawn in, let the voice seduce you... surround yourself with that rhythm... drown yourself in that groove...! san proper heard it a little differently and gave us his take on it, and gave life to a different kind of monster, way too powerful to contain. so we give you two different versions that share the same fundamental dna, two versions that are both so completely unique but still two equal parts of the same fantastic organism. strange idols will lead those who are willing.

new record on help recordings by the arhus quartet maizena. this one is one of those more relaxing and introvert records we put out to stress the fact that life is not always about dancing. pretty sounds and not too many unpleasant or scary moments. most of the music is in the vain of their earlier work on no hands, regelbau and help, a rhythmical ambient music. recorded in the isolated haelge studios surrounded by nothing but the sea and the mols mountains.

grandioser northern soul-sampler, der 16 perlen von hochkarätern wie nina simone, joe simon, bobby adams und grover mitchell vereint und dazu superbe tunes von ricky rezell, bertha tillman, george allen, mary johnson und eddie banks with the five dreamers erstmals seit original-release wieder auf vinyl verfügbar macht. ein schmuckstück für soul/r&b-vinylsammler!

in a discography that includes releases on too many quality labels to mention, we are proud to present toronto’s very own demuir and his yoruba records label debut with ‘discover’. vocal duties are handled by another native from the 6, the lovely and talented cynthia amoah. demuir and cynthia have proven to be a formidable team, collaborating in previous bangers such as ‘here’s to friday’ and ‘such is life’. -we marching on and walking together softly…- ‘discover’ takes us through that initial first encounter of two lovers. that point where you feel the entire world opening up to unimagined possibility. the adrenaline starts to rush and the anticipation builds. you begin to listen to your heart thump in the same way you feel demuir’s signature hard drums thump. the urgency in cynthia’s vocals is letting the listener know that this is real. that this is really happening. ...

latest in the run of downright deviant activities from the contort yourself camp is this new collection of old and new industrial tinged bangers, leading in with the excellent noirish heat of eindkrak s slow-stepping -shawarma-. andromeda complex s mid-90s rhythm-fest sits in stark, functional contrast before gdl s own contemporary rhythm science sends the record spinning in a reverie of surprisingly light-footed percussion. circling vultures are too enjoying the mean tempered intensity of focused drum machine programming before klankman rounds the record off with a slightly squelchy remix of andromeda complex s -the servant-.

copenhagen based music for dreams release the debut album of mackrory and collier.
nick mackrory & harry collier’s musical partnership dates all the way back to the 90’s, when they were both deeply invested in the musical boom in the uk that followed acid house, the rave scene, and the ibiza experience. nick went from drumsticks to turntables to studio wizardry, while harry honed in on his golden voice - which led him to a stint as a singer for faithless. they found their way back to each other in 2014 and have since developed a sound together that is fresh but not too polished. with touches of 60’s chanson coupled with sundazed electronics, their songs linger on like the feeling of a long day spent outdoors in summer.
this album collects their previously released singles for music for dreams along with exclusive new material and a number of remixes, edits and alternate versions that together form a mesmerizing listening experience.

eric boss â&#128,&#147, closer to the spirit just when you thought that the funk 45 game was becoming a little bit too predictable, mocambo once again hits with a sureshot single to smash dancefloors across the pond. eric boss (dj e da boss, myron & e, the pendletons...) needs little introduction. his 2ndouting with the german funk heavyweights anticipates their forthcoming collaborative album - a modern love- with a raw uptempo funk track, oozing old school vibes, flipped live and uncut on tape with a fresh style that is all their own. limited edition vinyl 45 includes instrumental for dedicated djs.

the 3rd album from the exiters, originally released in 1969, now back on vinyl.

zone records welcome a real legend in the form of cardopusher for their next ep, a five track affair that is arresting from the off. venezuelan born cardopusher is now based in barcelona and co-founded the classicworks label. his diverse and experimental sound takes him from techno to electro to acid to rave to house, all with his own singular perspective. always fusing ideas with great skill on labels like super rhythm trax, zodiac 44 and bnr, he now comes correct for zone. kicking things off is the raw and raucous ‘nothing left to believe in.’ it is a macho tune with fractured vocals, wild synths and slap funk drums all sounding industrial and tortured. then comes blast cut, a more dynamic and stripped back electro groove with a corrugated bassline and metallic synth stabs all sounding informed by the past but looking to a distant future.

good for saturday nights as well as sunday mornings, maxi jazz, rollo and sister bliss are the holy trinity at the centre of the u.k. electronic dance collective faithless. catapulted into fame by their 1996 banger >insomnia<, the group went on to play almost every stage, club and festival known to man. twice. >outrospective< was their third and most successful album, where maxi jazzs trendy vicar approach and sister bliss & rollos innate sense of what makes music work reach their climax. it is more upbeat in tempo and emotion and has an intuitive production that emphasizes their e-flavoured spirituality to a tee. featuring dido and their biggest selling hit >we come one<.

legendäres 2005er album , 2017 reissue, gatefold cover

dj overdose is back on uttu! 2 of the freshest elekro inspired houz jams from the hague direct to your speakers backed with hyper electro kut probably too commercial for the headz.

blackcash & theo get back at it with the latest in this series of funk soul party edits. pleasure bouncy lady is an amazing funk break track, produced by jazz legend wayne henderson of the crusaders. the intro break has been extended, and is one of the all time classic hip hop funk breaks. elements of this track were sampled on brand new funk by dj jazzy jeff & the fresh prince, word to the mother (land) by big daddy kane, and church by de la soul. whatnauts why cant people be colors too is a soul / r&b jam with another heavy break, as sampled by q-tip, pete rock, diamond d, dilla, and oh my god by a tribe called quest featuring busta rhymes.

summer might be on its way but we felt things were getting just a little too ‘nice’ over at x-kalay hq. there’s been bare palm tree emojis flying around for time now and not enough hammers, sickles, cheap fags and adidas tracksuits m8.
next up for xk008 we present mysterious russian newcomer, diego tierres and his solar winds ep. based in st petersburg he’s served us up four of the toughest warehouse burners you’re likely to hear this side of the iron curtain. proper raw material, this is straight out the furnace, blow your doors off, no prisoners shit.

following the edge & void, french producer and goldmin music label owner romain lanteaume aka einka delivers his first album to waken doubt in one.

timothy heretic’clerkin has a new record out. this new record is called serenade. it is out on ransom note records. it is three tracks from timothy and one remix from marlon hoffstadt. all four tracks are winners. they sound like the 90s remade by people too young to remember the shit bits. there are breakbeats. there are acid lines. there are weird samples about drugs. there are things that sound like orbital. there is no time wasted.

the snooze fest is over and we’re back in the saddle with the first output from colin la plante aka the mole aka half owner of this imprint. he’s been touring up a storm and playing out a lot of new music we’re excited to share with you this year.
spicy noodles are something colin thinks everyone can love…not one at a time…but by the bowl.
this four tracker definitely shows off “new directions” for the mole – nothing too outlandish mind you, but the path he chose with the title and crowd favourite “gelb grun blau” definitely has these tracks leaning towards the centre of a dj sets vs. beginning or end…spiralling kick drums with a fine grind blend of digital synths, analog synths, drum machines and the occasional samples here. vape-house anyone?
the closer “back in the studio game” is a beatless one created just for the sunrises of your life.

vinyl only , we started ‘the classic series’ featuring tracks that we love, bought, played out and which we have the feeling more people should know about them. for this sixth release, it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from the detroit sound: mr.de’. this project includes four brilliant rare cuts and timeless moments of ghetto tech sounds from electrofunk’s catalogue.

dj support: mat.joe - dopeee!!! kiko navarro - really like all tracks from rick and the k.e.e.n.e edit too! robosonic - yo. hood edit...originals cool & classy. gracias hermanos. nhan solo. oooh yes, put on your dancing shoes baby, its discolicious. thabo getsome - sick release. will play all.

ltd 50% deal ...significant success for artists is based on two things: talent and timing. dave.i.d has talent by the spadeful but his timing may also be spot on. when dave.i.d released his debut single in march 09 he was probably too ahead of the game but now as we enter the last third of 2010 it feels right on the money. daves initial release went down very well though. paul lester in the guardians important new band of the day feature totally lost it, calling dave.i.d >totally brilliant< and dubbing him >aphex timbaland<. his single was voted single of the year in dazed & confused and made the end of year round-up in drowned in sound. now with the amazing zola jesus setting up so well around the world and the dark electronica coming more to the fore outside its nerd roots, dave.i.d sounds perfectly in tune with the unhappy, troubled sound of now.
bespoke packaging using industrial blue plastic cut in a rhombus shape. the same blue plastic forms the backdrop to the live stage show.

mr. frankie knuckles - this time operating under his night writers alias. we re not sure too much needs to be said about this one, it s all here really, that classic knuckles deep touch, the musicality, the vibe... ricky dillard s vocals encapsulating that feeling when the music takes over, pure abandon. the pairing of these two talents results in what would eventually become a bona-fide house classic.

if mega-psychedelic tripping house excursions are your thing then it s entirely possible that derrick carter s sound patrol orchestra may have exactly what you need. no exaggeration. tripping among the stars indeed. the other version of this jam lifted from the sweetened - no lemon lp from 1994 is maybe a little better known, but these mixes right here are worthy of all your attention too! 3 non-stop funk excursions into the cosmos with derrick and co. joining you and guiding you with their cosmic voices. it s hard to pick a favourite as all included are very different beasts yet somehow essential. honestly, this ep kinda shits on most things that you may hear currently and this stuff is from 1997. the still trippin mix is definitely a standout, a free, weaving, 12 minute plus colliding jam that just opens up and evolves real lovely, exactly the kind of record you want to hear around 7am on a smoky dance-floor somewhere. pure after hours perfection. the other mixes are just as potent, with a heavy cowbell laden dc dub mix that s brimming over with live drums and handclaps and a superb bass laden wamdue kids mix that takes off into the stratosphere of deep. basically, this whole record has it covered. literally, it shouldn t leave your bag anytime soon. essential new (old) school chicago gear that just won t quit. thank the heavens we all get the chance to trip again with this beautiful repress! essential. remastered and repressed with the involvement and welcome assistance of the mr.derrick carter, chicago usa.

all day i dream invites a few new names to the labels summer sampler season. alongside a few familiar ones too like lee burridge and lost desert with their much anticipated ‘absent without thoughts’. gab rhome and superlounge keeping it groovy. new music from new artists include budakid, phck and zone+, each one a unique flavor in dreamland.

finally the first deepartsounds release in 2017 by alessandro pasini aka deep88 and melchior sultana! the first song reminds on one of the absolute fav deep house tracks ever -key note- by wayne gardiner. the rest is dope too with a touch of rivera and balearic feeling.

a selection of forgotten demos by band hymn, active 1981-1984, with multi-talented musician and post-punk pioneer lucas trouble (†2016) in the lineup. dition of 400 numbered copies. hand stamped sleeve. includes insert with photos, artwork and liner notes. all the tracks were originally self-released as demo tapes in a very limited run. their first work, coming home, was published in 1983, and the second one, too many lies, in 1984. both of them were distributed by the band themselves. shortly after, they released a more widely known 12” ep, tired (nova express, 1984), with a different line-up and noticeably more rock-oriented. definers of a totally genuine sound, hymn were coevals to the underground-synth-post-punk movement that surfaced in france in the early eighties, easily recognisable today via cult labels such as bain total and invisible/scopa records, with stunning releases by experimental references like ilitch, philippe doray or incontinents.

cementing his reputation as the star toaster with the small but popular el paso sound system, based in the waltham park area, dennis alcapone was one of the first deejays to rise to prominence following u roy’s breakthrough in the late 1960s. born dennis smith in the rural district of culloden, he became immersed in sound system culture after settling in western kingston. once el paso became big on the sound system circuit, dental technician-turned-producer keith hudson brought him into the studio for his debut recordings, which led to a debut album for studio one and hit material for duke reid, some cut in concert with his deejay sparring partner, lizzy. alcapones longstanding links with bunny lee yielded the excellent guns don’t argue album, first issued in 1972, on which the toaster raps with style over some of lees all-time greatest rhythms, including delroy wilsons better must come, john holts left with a broken heart and slim smiths rendition of the temptations soul classic ain’t too proud to beg.

first ep by vaskular (the creator of black jesus) on comeme will appeal to lovers of south african beats and hip hop four jacking tracks of heavy dancefloor elegance probably one of the best bassdrums you will hear in 2017 100% comeme dancefloor approved. fun facts: yula kasp, who has recently released her own music on kill the dj is not unknown to cómeme insiders - she did the videos to comeme classics guerrero, el sucu tucu, levantate diegors, do you wanna work and more, and did backing vocals on philipp gorbachevs hero of tomorrow ep! m. aguayo played drums for her on some of her tunes, too

hot on the heals of phil kieran s first blinded by the sun album remix project which featured roman flügel and andrew weatherall remixes, hot creations return with a second remix package. mano le tough, matthew herbert and david holmes all contribute to create a set of flawless cuts and a superb second remix package.
david holmes under his unloved alias concludes the package with a cinematic remix of think too much, overflowing with emotion, it makes the perfect conclusion to a stellar release. also from belfast, holmes has been composing music for over two decades, winning his second ivor novello award in 2016.

related artists red axes, lena willikens, khidja, autarkic, boot & tax key selling points il est vilaine arent from brittany, but they sure are tricksters. the francophiles among you might have caught on to the corny pun in their name (beating a certain presidential candidate to the punch all while turning the name of the pastoral ile-et-vilaine region into, literally, hes a nasty woman) but the real takeaway is that these born-and-bred parisians dont take themselves too seriously especially in an era in which there is much too much of that happening.

nice price deal !!!

framed by two spoken word samples and wrapped in house and techno emotions, that know about electro and 90’s electronica too: the new, second album of the leipzig and berlin based producer and live artist martin enke aka lake people moves in a fresh way. this time he shifts towards a focus on the essentials of electronic club music: sounds and groove, rough and playful interweaved with the aesthetic particles of techno. with his “point ep”, released on the berlin based imprint krakatau records in late 2012, his creative life as a producer for melancholic driven club tunes took off. several top notch djs played the tune “point in time”, lake people started to tour world-wide with his mesmerizing live set and produced countless remixes for colleagues from all around the globe. in 2015 he finally released his first album “purposely uncertain field” on the munich based label permanent vacation and delivered eleven tracks at the interface of techno, ambient, experimental and electronic, that bewitch with hymnal chords, yearningly melodies, detailed production, elaborate sound design and an overall introspective, emotive feeling. now, just shortly after he published a fresh ep on the dresden based imprint uncanny valley, lake people drops “phase transition”, a new album consisting of ten haunting tracks full of dance suspense. he recorded all between 2016 and early 2017 on various vintage analog synthesizers, uad and other creative interfaces. to find out if his latest pure slamming tracks work deep, he tried them out during his live shows in order to catch some new ideas directly from the dance floor.

still reeking from the filth of the tv studio, tabloid mongering and howls of blasphemy from the old guard, dj seinfeld is proving to be a hardened veteran of the circuit. a new anti-hero for a humourless and devoid internet age kicking against the hollywood reptiles. ‘ruff hysteria’ is the sounds from the cutting room floor deemed too unsavoury for public consumption. it’s the grind of acid in the hotel lobby and the incessant pulse of a walkman tucked into a tuxedo pocket oozing it’s way into the central nervous system. it’s four tracks abandoned by the mainstream studios picked up by the grotty b-movie generation. the losers, the freaks, gore heads. bare bones tackle for the floor and analogue anthems for the disenchanted.

with just one 7inch release to their name in the form of the 1981 release, jive baby on a saturday night, the cult of the jellies was possibly accidentally assured with the long lost song being rediscovered by collectors and championed by sonic youth s thurston moore no less. picked up and reissued by the stellar trunk records in 2010, the b-side cut, however, was sadly overlooked. now emotional rescue are proud to license the conversation and remaster it especially for this rerelease. based around a simple drum and bass rhythm, interspersed with crowd noise, playful female vocal yelps and sprinkled with dub effects thrown in to the mix and you wouldn t probably think too much would be going for a track that the band put together in the last two hours of their studio time after jive baby had been completed. however, what you get is a killer gem of pop-punk-dub oddness that gets your head nodding to its infectious, repetitive rhythm laden with effects. with just this one (perfect) track available for license it seemed only right to hand it over to the in-house production team, apophenia, to do their increasingly trademark dubbed out reworking, this time in the form of a true, but respectful version for the flip. with both members of the jellies sadly now living overseas this piece of early 80s british dub as it were, can now be fully treasured for posterity while also, proving a nice little smokers delight.
