comes in hand printed dreamy, pink sleeve, including obi-strip, by the bakk innerspace ink station.

pontiac streator previously appeared as a guest on the first west mineral ltd release, pendant’s by-now classic make me know you sweet, while ulla straus is perhaps best known for her part on the cultishly adored bblisss compilation tape which introduced huerco s.’s pendant alias to the world at large. their first album together is a bedroom-crafted confection where drowsy meditations smudge with lounging exotica themes in a blunted style to properly heavy-lidded effect. limited edition of 300 copies on black vinyl.

auf dem neuen album der sängerin und gitarristin ulla haesen, rio so vim matar a saudade, verbinden sich die talente von drei gefeierten brasilianischen künstlern (kiko freitas, lula galvão, nelson faria) mit der passion einiger der besten musiker europas (decebal badila, alfonso garrido, jesse milliner, francesco petrocca, gabriel pérez, jürgen schuld, hendrik meurkens). das von klaus genuit meisterhaft aufgenommene projekt rio so vim matar a saudade, bietet uns eine musikalische brücke, gebaut mit liebe, neugier und einer persönlichen sehnsucht nach dem glanz fremder kulturen. pressung auf schwarzem 180 gramm vinyl.

thomas brinkmann is one of the great producers of techno music and modern dance music. he initially gained notoriety in the experimental electronic music and techno community for his full-length variations of material by wolfgang voigt under his mike ink moniker, and richie hawtin. the variations were made by playback of the original artist records on a turntable of brinkmann s design, which has two tone arms with separate outputs for left and right channels. the turntables were then pitched down from 33rpm to 27rpm and the results recorded and mixed. both voigt and hawtin were sufficiently impressed they released the results on their own labels. since then thomas brinkmann has produced some all-time classic dance tracks, many of which are collected here in what is a personal selection by thomas brinkmann himself. there are unreleased tracks, different versions, and tracks that have never been released on vinyl. a full colour 20-page book with track notes by thomas brinkmann and photos from his personal collection is included. limited edition box. highly recommended! ean4050486123461

goldfrapp veroeffentlicht ihr neues album bei mute. >tales of us<, das nunmehr sechste album der band, wurde von alison goldfrapp und will gregory geschrieben und produziert und in ihrem studio auf dem land in westengland aufgenommen. ganze zwei jahre dauerte die arbeit an diesem geradezu schwelgerischen werk - es ist das bis dato erzählerischste, kinematografischste und intimste album von goldfrapp. man kann zu recht behaupten, dass keines ihrer vorhergehenden alben die lyrische weite vorwegnahm, die ihr jüngstes werk besitzt. fast ausnahmslos alle stücke sprechen in der 1. person bewegende charakterbilder und reflexionen über abseitige liebesaffären, ungewissheiten, halluzinationen, maerchen und moderne moritaten, aber auch momente von erlösung, geronnen in songs, in poesie, die goldfrapps musik an einen bislang unbetretenen ort fuehren.
die cd-version des albums liegt der vinyl-lp bei.
