thomas blanchot, 40 years old percussionist and drummer, started his production structure mato production in 2001, with which he collaborated and directed for many projects. composer, music publisher and producer of music for tv, advertising, films and records, he also began a career as reggae producer since 2006, under the name -mato-. since then he’s released music through various projects concepts, coming out through labels such as makasound, edr records or big singles. in the meantime he developed a real trademark: taking over classics french, hip-hop, or pop song, into roots reggae-dub new versions. besides since 2010, mato’s built a solid reputation thanks to his many remixes of hip-hop classics on stix records. it is therefore natural to find him back with a new attractive concept on the favorite recordings’ sub-label: seasoning the notorious -homework- by daft punk, with his special reggae-dub sauce. once again mato achieves a brilliant rendition with this homework dub, making almost dreadlocks grow on the french robots’ heads! using kick-effects, delays and roaring bass, he reinvents one of the most famous albums of electronic music, as if it was straight-out from scientist, king tubby or mad professor’ studios in jamaica.

remixed with love volume 3 is the latest edition of what has become the industry-leading disco remix series. no one knows this era of music better than dave lee, who under his joey negro alias once again turns his impeccable hand to some of the best-loved records ever committed to wax.

cd extrawelt are arne schaffhausen and wayan raabe. both have been around for about 40 years, and making music together for half that time. they enjoy normal things and are ashamed of their carbon footprints due to the large number of flights they take to bring them to their gigs. unknown, is the tenth studio album from the producer team, and the fourth under the name extrawelt. its largely devoted to another side of their creations.

we return with the sixth installment of the beloved stil vor talent berlin compilation series, which brings forth a group of old and new faces, who exclusively contributed unreleased tracks, gathered under the umbrella of berlins best repurposed space. since flughafen tempelhof ceased operating in 2008, it has given hours upon hours of joy and peace to the cityÕs public in the form of tempelhoferfeld, a gigantic park crisscrossed by the airports former runways. the perfect retreat to unwind in, right on the border of kreuzberg and neukšlln. as always, music is the common denominator and oliver koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while chrisse kunst renders the visuals.

regardless of the different variables, equation drops back to the same constant result.

special nice price - luke vibert has made many great records over the years, but few are quite as well crafted as his 2004 debut album under the now familiar kerrier district alias. inspired by a mixture of metro area, black devil disco club, cheap synthesizers, early new jersey garage, italian house and, of course, classic disco, it remains a touchstone in the development of nu-disco. this timely reissue features freshly re-mastered versions of all ten tracks from the original album, plus the six tracks which made up 2006 s kerrier district 2 12inch. these include the loved-up, late 80s loveliness of ce porte, the 808 cowbell and vocoder laden disco nasty, and a typically eccentric ceephax remix of sho u rite.

loke rahbek returns with his fifth album under the croatian amor alias with love means taking action, recently premiered at the 2016 edition of berlin atonal where it was considered by many as one of the festival highlights. although not as harsh and abrasive as previous albums, such as genitalia garden or last years the wild palms, rahbeck still manages to execute a polarising opus, comprised of short ambient journeys which incorporate various sonic influences and clever use of sampling outside of his usual employment of textural noise treatments. field recordings, immaculate synthesis and emotional vocal snippets are interspersed throughout this exploration of love and human connection. the title track, in particular, could well be one of our favourite songs this year. quite simply: breathtaking.

undisputed rulers of the new pop empire, kadebostany announce the release of their genre-defining new album monumental, coming march 2018. the quest to design this ultimate pop album has taken kadebostany through hills and plains the world over in search of unconventional contributors and outlandish ideas. all manner of peculiar artists were assembled to weave the intricate tapestry that is monumental, the banner for a pop empire which everyone can stand under. monumental features both newcomer and confirmed singers: delhia de france, rhita nattah, anna kova, sissi rada, kate wallace, and kadebostanys front live singer kristina.

Ôlillygood party!Õ is the brand new bbe compilation from highly respected swiss dj alex attias. taking its name from a party he runs in his native lausanne, lillygood has gradually evolved into a radio show and even a label, now on its 4th release. refecting the music he plays at the clubnight, Ôlillygood party!Õ is packed with funk, disco, deep house and boogie bullets from across the globe. Òthe idea is to present not only rare or difcult tracks to fnd, simply good grooves for people to play out, or listen to at home.Ó
from rare japanese disco gems, through spiritual jazz, to genre defying sounds from broken-beat cohorts kaidi tatham and dego, Ôlillygood party!Õ takes a unique trip inside the musical mind of one of dance musicÕs true nonconformists.
alex attias got his start in back in Õ88 playing funk, house, jazz, and disco, as well as producing under various monikers such as mustang, freedom soundz or beatless. moving to london in Õ97 he started his ÔvisionsÕ label and found himself at the epicentre of the emerging west london Ôbroken beatÕ scene which grew around his studio at goya. releases on people, planet e, ubiquity, neroli, archive and compost followed, as well as remixes for incognito, 4hero, ennio morricone, sun ra, art blakey, roni size and laurent garnier among others.

der londoner dj/produzent dimension (aka robert etheridge) schaffte schon zu beginn seiner karriere den spagat zwischen underground, radio und club und erlangte so die aufmerksamkeit von grš§en wie andy c, sub focus, chase & status, aber auch skrillex und deadmau5. sein aus 56(!) tracks bestehendes fabric-set ist eine mit kreativitŠt, energie und sensibilitŠt erstellte blaupause des drum n bass-status 2018 und enthŠlt 22 exclusives sowohl von protagonisten des genres, als auch von aufstrebenden jungtalenten. feat. chase & status, sub focus, calyx & teebee, metrik, dossa & locuzzed, benny l, u.v.a.

to those familiar with the output of cologne-based imprint firm from back in the early Ô00s, the name of geiger, alias nass, shall undoubtedly ring a bell. herald of an hedonistic melange of funk- soaked electro pop and guitar-riddled synth music, sitting somewhere close to acts like ween and junior boys, alexander geiger is about to break a eight-year hiatus with the drop of his debut album under the newly-founded moniker of fahrland. a release that both encompasses a healthy dose of the discoid tropes from the firm era but also aspires to split with a segment of it, geared towards exploring further undisclosed fringes of his shape-shifting sound universe, Ômixtape vol.1Õ is the fruit of a decisive move from the sleepless berlin to the peaceful countryside landscapes of fahrland Ð a lushly forested area near potsdam which youÕll have understood played an essential role in geigerÕs longed-for return.

we are back in the hauptstadt (berlin capital) with the fifth installment of the * stil vor talent berlin* compilation series, which brings forth a group of old and new faces, who exclusively contributed unreleased tracks, gathered under the umbrella of one of berlins most iconic spots. frankfurter tor is the gateway to one of our favourite districts: good old friedrichshain. loud, left and a little dirty, it houses some of the cityÕs best clubs, markets and musicians, oliver koletzki included. its two towers stand as metaphorical guards to an area that has plenty to offer and asks for little in return, instantly making it feel like home. as always, music is the common denominator and oliver koletzki delivers the perfect soundtrack with this new release, while chrisse kunst renders the visuals.

digipack cd, all that must be wartet mit hochkarŠtigen kollaborationen mit lil silva, bonobo und tracey thorne auf. es beleuchtet achtzehn lebensverŠndernde monate, in denen fitzgerald den vielbeschworenen hedonismus der deutschen hauptstadt hinter sich gelassen hat, um ein leben als frisch gebackener familienvater und produzent in london aufzunehmen. mit hilfe eines faszinierenden musikalischen erzŠhlbogens vereint er die unterschiedlichsten emotionalen zustŠnde und injiziert seiner musik eine tragische pop-note. drama trifft frohsinn. nachdenklichkeit tanzt mit ausgelassenheit. ein ausbalancierter longplayer, der im clubnebel genauso funktioniert, wie bei einer nŠchtlichen autofahrt durch verlassene bezirke einer x-beliebigen gro§stadt dieser welt.

nach drei alben auf kompakt, zuletzt signs under test- im jahr 2015, kehrt der us-amerikanische house- und techno-produzent john tejada mit dem elf-tracker dead start program zum kšlner label zurŸck. eine reise, die das spektrum von johns stilen umfasst - von seinen charakteristischen soul-techno-melodien bis hin zu den hypnotischen mustern seiner trance-electro-hybride. ob solo oder durch seine vielzahl von kollaborationen tejada beschŠftigt sich mit allen elementen innerhalb und au§erhalb der club-umgebung. sei es auf seinem (44.) fabric mix, als schlagzeuger mit der detroit legende daniel bell als dbx, mit tin man auf acid test oder mit dem selbsternannten desinformator reggie watts als wajatta. vom arrhythmischen maschinenspuk des openers autoseek Ÿber den hŠmmernden puls von hypochondriac und dem schwerlidrigen breakbeat von sleep spindle zur kosmische infundierten vibration von telemetry, der lebendigen traegheit von loss und clubbigen winde von duty cycle und heal bahnt sich john auf dead start program seinen weg durch genres und tempi mit optimalem chamaeleon-effekt. das artwork, basierend auf einem bild von mark richards, wurde von johns langjŠhrigem freund juan mendez aka silent servant, ein ebenfalls wichtiger mitwirkender der los angeles szene, designed. der titel dead start program bezieht sich hierbei auf das analoge start-up-programm eines alten cdc 6600 computers aus einem toten anfang zu booten. dies lŠdt in johns eigenen worten metaphorisch dazu ein, einen neustart von den herausforderungen, die das leben mit sich bringt zu beginnen.

re-issued again, with new liner notes. a wonderful, rare record wrapped in a mysterious yet playful ambiance. or maybe it s just the impression that the japanese language often gives me. suiren is an odd jazz-fusion-wave tune that sounds like its boiling, waiting to burst but somehow manages to stay in control. like the nervous tick of a leg fidgeting under the table of a restaurant on a first date. yasuaki shimizu is a japanese composer, producer and saxophone player born in 1954. he worked with ryuchi sakimoto on certain arrangements, with the south korean artist nam june paik on art+sound installation pieces and even dj towa tei (of deee-lite fame). suiren was released in 1981 and is the opening title on the sought-after kakashi album and is my personal favorite on this overall brilliant record. it weaves behind new wave, jazz, fusion, ambient and experimental music.
