superb new diagonal release! 1st edition on red vinyl also comes in a screen printed poly jacket.
john cage once stepped into an anechoic chamber expecting to hear silence. instead, he heard the low-end throb of his own blood pulsing through his body. this is the story that gave blood music, the first new act on diagonal, their name. it is an appropriate one too: simon pomery, the creative lead and only ever-present member of the band, strikes his guitar with screwdrivers, mallets and his own bare fists, frequently putting real blood into the blood music that spits violently from the band.

the next instalment, we feature artists from the growing lht family jamie blanco opens the record with his accomplice sam mensah on singin duties - jamie and alphonse worked in the studio together on this version we think will appeal to fans of real house music next up is bintus of power vacuum with his first original track on lht and theres no messing about - raw acid and stripped drums and at a pace that we can dance too, label boss alphonse opens side b with a deep 808 jam and this is followed by lht studio wizz facade who finishes with another piece of what can only be described as big.

brother jt is central, pa’s john terlesky whose freewheeling boundless music has been released under many different monikers: brother jt & vibrolux, brother jt3 and most commonly brother jt. he has worked with an impressive roster of tastemakers such as drag city, siltbreeze, birdman, and drunken fish. brother jt is a moniker that finds terleskys songwriting and ample guitar skills taking a decidedly psychedelic form but never deviating too far from the classic song structure.

soulmusik ist zeitlos heißt es, sie schafft es die höhen und tiefen des menschlichen gefühlshaushalts auszuloten und abzubilden, wie es kein anderes musikalisches genre kann. sie hat sich in den über 50 jahren ihres bestehens nur durch den technischen fortschritt der produktionsmöglichkeiten verändert. ihr ewiges thema, die freuden und leiden des alltags, änderten sich hingegen nie. warum auch? wer also bei al & the teenagers mit dem lästigen retro-begriff kommt, verkennt das genre soulmusik. das sich al & the teenagers dabei an der blütezeit der musik orientieren, ist nur folgerichtig

*bastard child of house* is a tribute to chicagos most famous record store. inspired by a video about some native chicago guys working at the store, peter schumann and kareem decided to set words to a tune and create their own version of the story. they asked their buddy dcnt if he could add his interpretation too. and so it happened that words became sound and sound inspired more sound and as we speak everything turns into words again. with both versions the tooliness is very obvious, while the original is organic and warm in terms of tone and sound design, the dcnt version has a more technoish feel and relies heavily on its edgy and straightforward character.

get down edits return with volume 4 in the series this time we have fingerman and deadly sins alongside label head honchos gde.

the soft rocks collective feature twice on the upstart black rox label with two heavily tribal remixes for a so far unknown artist. the soft rocks take on *filaw* is wrapped in horns and jungle sounds - not too far off a 1970s brian jackson and gil scott heron collaboration. on the flip is a possible talking heads reference in *once in a life time*, which gathers mesmeric african drums and percussion, grooving in harmony to ritualistic chant. a mohican david byrne perhaps?

i still find it hard to describe music after all these years, as i think the most important is what people feel when listening to it rather than pigeon holing the hell out of it. i simply love it, hope you do too. (kr!z)

jtc is a phenomenon. one alias of the multi-talented tadd mullinix. one part of a mind that also houses dabrye, sk-1, charles manier, and halves of tnt, 2am/fm and x2. this time round, on park days, he flexes a house side that has not been seen too often in his career of 13 years. whether the driving groove of south brooks, the late night drum machine jam of argo, creals ever evolving scatter, or the delicate gallup, park days is one of those records where everyone has a different favourite. ie - a good one. we are honoured to release this mans music. a man that continually remains out of the spotlight, yet is revered by your favourite producers for at least one of his many aliases. a man that ignores trends, hype, trickery, and just returns every now and again to nudge that bar a little bit higher than he left it last.

this record is a soundtrack for excentric nightlife. bringing back to life images of wild parties at artists workspaces in paris in the 1920s, early mornings in belgian nightclubs in the late 1980s and driving classic italian sports cars during long hot summer nights. but this is not just a dream, we are here to live this life! enfant terrible serves you contemporary music to spice up your nighttime activities... limited edition of 350 copies.

the original motion picture soundtrack for quentin tarantinos *django unchained* as double 12 inch vinyl in gatefold sleeve.

as the london & berlin based somethinksounds imprint approaches a tenth release since its inception in 2010 we have learnt that although you can never be too sure of what they are going to serve up next, you can be sure its going to be of the highest quality. whether it be unearthing exquisitely produced idm by lucky paul, future house sounds from rising stars such as eliphino and ossie (black orange juice) or straight up club bangers by some of the biggest hitters in the game (gadi mizrahi of wolf + lamb), this time they deliver what could be one of the most infectious vocal drops of 2012 on artifacts sensational double a-side the way it do/we trapped.

clone royal oak and chicken lips present randee jean. a new project by dean meredith and andrew meecham (chicken lips, bizarre inc) delivering some classic jazzy rhodes driven uk house vibes! classy production and some fine recorded instruments and vocals on the original mix. dexter & awanto3 teamed up for the occasion and deliver two fresh and sharp remixes. arttu,the finnish boy wonder played around with the recordings too and came up with a heavy 4/4 thump with layers of samples that let the funk out. killer package!!

two original classic members return too classic with an adventure into the world of disco deviance. tim kvasnosky (co-writer with tim shumaker from home and garden fame) and jt donaldson (undercover agency) joining forces here, utilising their wealth of musical knowledge and inspiration to make something that melds the likes of wally badarou, the system and maurice fulton.

four releases in now and the quality continues on midnight love club! montel presents the forth release in the shape of 3 heavy duty club cuts with a rather distinct nod to the house sound of 90s nyc/nj. there s not too much info on this montel character, but one thing we do know is that he s a man with a penchant for vintage house & garage. a dj, collector and producer that has decided to give back a little after all these years. and these years of experience are certainly evident in his authentic house and garage sound that has already picked up a fan base that includes bicep, jordan peak and waze & odyssey!

with this third release we have returned to the structure of our first release together to bring you too wicked examples of his original take on house with a final track to send you on your way bathed in psychedelic sunshine vibes. how leon manages to combine ruff edges with smooth vibes is a talent in itself.

pit spector comes back with a second solo ep on minibar. the first one is amazing, the second one is too. working for years on various musical projects (antislash, avas verden, cellule eat, radiozerozero), pit presents a really personal release witnessing his work in studio. the results are mental and dancy tracks mixing instruments and machines, space vocals and weird samples. completely involved in parisian electronic scene, pit switch between his work at zerozerobar and producing music.

with its non-placed devices and hard-to-pin-down aesthetic falling between electronic and psychedelic music and the warm-hued sounds of traditional acoustic instruments, burnt friedmans zokuhen,produced exclusively for vinyl, may be considered an extension of bokoboko. on this new double ep, too, the music focuses on uneven rhythms that dictate the groove for all the participating musical elements and display a formal logic to which all the instruments gladly succumb. with its even rhythm and proximity to dub reggae, the track kon ki (c2) shows that exceptions from the rule are permitted among the six new tracks and two re-worked bokoboko themes that round off this follow-up.

the e.p kicks off with she can dance, a slow burning acid number that has elements of deep, grooving house from the detroit school. in fact, the second cut low control bares the influence of detroit too, with its murky, dubbed-out chords ala luke hess moving into a punchy bassline with minimal but functional drum patterns. proceedings get a bit more bouncy on the smoking hat, a quirky acid romp on the less daft side of ceephax, and the perfect soundtrack to accompany a feature-length documentary about.... a smoking hat. finishing up the e.p is fudge fingas remix of low control, the only man qualified to make an already deep as fuck track even deeper. theres been some on-point criticisms about a lot recent deep stuff getting lost in noodly jazz territory, but we are in no danger of that nonsense with fudge fingas at the controls: accomplished a musician he may be, hes never been one to lose the way, and this mix proves his deft and subtle remix talents. dabj done done it again, and hopefully this is the first in a long line of productions from vernon.

over the last year i have traveled to canada frequently for gigs and got to know the small but healthy electronic music scene there. cities like montreal, vancouver and toronto have brought forth many established artists over the past few years, such as egyptrixx, azari & iii, basic soul unit, jacques greene, lunice and sixtoo, but 2012 has seen a new breed of no-nonsense house and techno producers come up via labels like turbo recordings and naked lunch. this *dovercourt ep* features three very talented producers: kevin mcphee, nautiluss and gingy. their tracks are a dedication to their hometown of toronto. being removed from the house/techno epicentres of berlin and london, these three are much less interested in what is fashionable or trendy, and more in bringing us straight to the point, no frails jacking house music. i have been playing these three extensively in my dj sets, and i hope you will too. so out to toronto, this one is for you! enjoy. martyn

without revealing too much, this tasty sampler is a prequel to some very nice things ahead. for now, we can treat you to two music box inspired edit tracks. ... tip! essential stuff!

the >just for fun< ep starts with the title track just4fun, which in fact breathes fun and doesnt take itself too seriously. the funky and highly infectious keys and the butt shaking groove will remind you of a track that moodymann never made, but wishes he had. next comes unlimited01 with a joyful piano melody that would fit right into a french disco with a funkier version of alain delon behind the decks. still, the rhodes chords, the slow sexy groove, the vocal hooks will get you moving in no time. thang then goes into a more detroit beatdown direction with its deep chords and smooth pads. it creates a mellow atmosphere with an almost relaxed summer feeling. this is what a funky pimp would listen to on a night car drive. the ep ends with spiritual almost tribal rhythms. inspiration would be a nice soundtrack to a 70s orgy orchestrated by a groovy guru, surrounded by a magical circle of mystical dancers. over the top? sure, but the track would certainly get this party going.

two definitive dancefloor powers collide with some dark, space, psych-out grooves. dont worry, there is some melody going on here. a serious electronic feel too. the deep vibe of early acid house minimalism is abundant as well. just listen, and all shall be revealed. as for the artists…? well, old school meets new school.

hello listeners, blunt heads, fly ladies and prisoners. this is the future of the music industry. not the music, just the idea of the artists writing their own pr faffle. next year ill probably have to carry my own bags on tour too tragic.

andreas saag returns to local talk with a follow-up to his back to life ep, this time he has invited longtime friend and studio partner cazuma mori, together both of them offers the local talk fans house music with a distinctive production technique. >nostalgia< is a warm stomping basement beats floor-filler, with a fat bassline tempered by rising chord textures, smartly coordinated with the pulses in the track. both saag & cazuma showcases their skills in tackling slower bpms too. the b-side >cant hide it< comes with intricate keyboard work and deep atmosphere that is driven by an appealingly on-point house bassline. the track picks up a new elements at just the right moment to keep you on board the whole 8 minutes. there is no messin around here, just pure deep house from local talk.

two previously unreleased mixes of >tonite< by aaron fit siegel, with vocals by lrenee. the o.g. mix is a version fit started working on to be a dub version of >tonite - original mix<, but morphed into something a bit more epic, and due to time constraints could not make it on the initial release. the d.d. version, is based on the original demo track fit wrote before any vocals were recorded, then edited and dubbed out by omar-s. if you liked the original release on fxhe, be sure to have this one as well and if you dont have the original release then you better get that one too!
