huge record alert! possibly one of the rarest (and funkiest!) jams on the legendary west end label! “touch your life” is an elusive beast, co-produced and mixed by bert reid (crown heights affair, empress) and steeped in low slung, spaced out electronic funk, this 1982 release is surely one of the most sought after in the labels catalog. a slick quiet storm number featuring the ultra smooth, laid back vocals of the millers backed with some serious synthed-out grooves, a real beauty of a track that will appeal to all disco, soul, electro-funk and boogie heads alike. both the vocal mix and the instrumental are featured here just like the original 12&#8243,,, release. this is the very first time this record has ever been re-issued in over 30 years. don’t miss your chance to scoop up a true rarity, used copies of “touch your life” usually sell for above the £100 mark and don’t turn up very often, if at all! this re-issue has been re-mastered from the original tapes and re-pressed with original label artwork in full collaboration with west end records, new york city.

the opening track on this double sided gynltd series comes from hironori takahashi. speclaz displays sharp panned cymbals and sonics, underpinned by a pulsey rhythm and modulated organesque synths. the takaaki itoh remix is a deeper and more moody affair, albeit with a similar syncopated rhythm structure and some tasty modulated acidic synth stabs with filtered atmospherics. on the flip-side, myk derill s crossroads takes a turn for a more broken industrial rhythm with looped vocal chants holding it all together before breaking down into a washed out synth breakdown, then returning to the pre-emnent fat rhythm and vocalised stabs. finally track 4 sees philippe petit remix, with the artist opting for a very stripped back 4-4 hi-hats/percussive workout underpinning minimalistic modulated synth and gentle bassy offsets. the most tooled-up track of this ep.

returning to his original home for this ep, it represents yet another left turn on the ukkonen musical path. the man himself says: *once again i want to change direction a little, whilst still keeping all the things i love in there - the polyrhythms, phasing loops, ambiguous timings and so on* however this set sees the tempo looser than before. we are not sure if post-techno actually ever happened, but maybe post-discotronica is, er, in the post. anyway, we liked the tracks so much that we once again went the extra mile with the physical product - a clear and white marbled thing of beauty, cut to 10 inch size in a 12 inch pressing.

the observer effect is a brainy and challenging record. recorded exclusively with gear, with all tracks arranged live, its tracks are pure explorations of the process of writing electronic music.

at once foreign and familiar, desert sound colony brilliantly scores a nostalgic journey through the proverbial looking glass. the plaintiff vibe of the way i began envelopes the listener in warm guitar licks and hushed vocals, transporting them to a time when innocence and insecurity gave way to transcendence. the road takes a turn with fire egg, a classic stomper that drives introspection with looping guitar melody and bouncy bass. and before we return to size, iris carries us further inward with scattered claps and a skipping kick, before releasing us into a deep and chugging, eyes-wide-shut, euphoric roller.

for more than ten years soul jazz records have been exploring and documenting the sound of new orleans funk. now we turn their attention to the flipside of this musical coin - new orleans soul. these two musical forms share a lineage that begins with the citys enormous rhythm and blues explosion in the post-war 1940s and 1950s. new orleans soul incorporated the soulful vocals of the gospel church, the driving beat of rhythm and blues, as well as traces of the second-line parade bands and the latinized rhythms of the city. this album tells the story of new orleans soul and comes complete with extensive sleevenotes, exclusive photography, supreme sound quality and comes as super-heavy, super-loud limited-edition double vinyl album + download code.

defaultbox strikes again. the black cube ep by patrick brøsin is armed with four substantial techno tracks including one remix. this time we could inspire tresor resident krenzlin and diego hostettler the head of belief system records. the collaboration between them is probably unknown for most of the people, but releases on nachtstrom schallplatten or affin ltd by krenzlin as well as on kanzleramt or u-turn by diego hostettler speak for themselves.

still riding high on the support for his recent circus collab with ki creighton, new uk talent kydus immediately returns to the label with a brace of new tracks that have already become proven weapons in the sets of label yousef and the mighty carl cox. his latest double-header sees him turn out more fierce grooves and raw funk with a large helping of sun-fuelled piano for good measure. free spirit is captivating from the first drum to the last. a rolling groove, almost house, almost techno. a poignant story told that surrounds the listener with uncompromising positive energy, a huge summer moment if there ever was one. yousef has been nurturing the demo for almost six months, building it from a secret weapon to circus anthem.

operating from the heart of brooklyn, ny, the latest artist to sign up to ornate is jordan, whose plush deep house sound has already surfaced via a collaboration with fred p on the deep explorer compilation far & beyond. living on the border of the bushwick and ridgewood neighbourhoods, the title of the ep is a nod to the difference jordan sees between his own spiritual, detailed work and the trend for rougher analogue sounds that have been sweeping the city he calls home. with a focus on expressive, richly melodic synths and delicately balanced rhythms, his music stands apart from the wave of guttural lo-fi sonics, and yet this is still house music with that east coast punch where it counts. with an imminent release for the noted finale sounds imprint establishing jordan well within the remit of high-end house and techno, it gives us great pleasure to present these exercises in soulful immersion, from the three 4/4 driven pieces to the ambient vignette -visage-. with the door open for more experimental interpretations, it made perfect sense to invite former ornate guest leif back to turn out a remix of the track, his own hushed tones having recently graced a critically-acclaimed debut album for fear of flying. it s the ideal complement to an ep of highly developed musicianship that spells another exciting step forward for both jordan and ornate.

*head off, heart on* is next to go. this ep of our artist juzz contains two brand new tunes, both revealing in depth sight on the producers perception. *i felt a deep urge to get rid of all my conceptual influences regarding the way of creating my music. almost like a purifying force that guided me back to the roots of expressing my emotions through music- says the long time producer and dj. constantly being surrounded by music got me more and more into a repetitive workflow. remembering the freedom and innocence of my first attempts in the studio led to this sole conclusion: turn your head off and your heart on.* and the result speaks for itself: highly emotional music wrapped in functional arrangements, aiming to move your soul. accompanied by two astonishing remixes from markus homm and dreksler & haerle, who both got only one demand: head off, heart on.

inside these airless sarcophagi, the passing of time renders objects once forged from molten metals as fragile as paper, so delicate a gust of wind could destroy them for ever. once deadly weapons now oxidised to dust are proof of the futility of man in the face of time. all regimes will crumble over years, all empires turn to dust…the more potent an object in its former life, the more poignancy in its nebulous disintegration. the shattered radio controls, the gun turned to a rusted block like a child s toy, the bullets corroded to nothing are all exiled from their brutal pasts. what messages are locked in time that passed through the obliterated decoding machine, who alive if anyone can tell its secrets.
