* a bump of house* develops around a hypnotic bass line and intricate deep synths and strings, similar to earlier path releases. “drop and see” dives the tempo to 110 bpms and is a mechanical industrial/synth styled number with a clever, hypnotic progression. overall, this ep offers another vital and varied selection of tracks from truth, who is known for providing refreshing and unique ideas throughout his career, including seminal releases on labels like planet e, sonic groove and strictly rhythm. limited to 350 copies, first 200 include a 12×12 graphic insert.

nice price deal !!! the idea for the sundowner sessions came about when mike found an old tascam cassette 4-track recorder at a garage sale in maplewood new jersey a few months ago. he went home and recorded some songs over a few extended sessions in his living room with headphones while his daughter napped upstairs. taking influence from early belgian trance and the diy noise and power electronics records simonetti released on his old label troubleman- the idea was to capture a moment in time and document it, and never revisit it again. projects like this is why new jersey exists as a label.respect to come org, united dairies, steinklang, american tapes, transmat, hospital prod, and tesco.

we met fred ventura in 2006 over emails sent to italians do it better headquarters. he was one of the first people from europe to start writing the label prior to after darks release. it took us a few months to realize that this was fred ventura, the cult italo legend from milan. like a true gentleman, he had never bothered to mention it. since the early 1980s fred ventura has released numerous singles in europe & toured the world extensively as a solo artist. last year, johnny was in bologna on tour with desire & fred came out to the show to drink champagne & bring us some copies of the reissued tapes of fred’s early post punk group state of art. the lightbulb lit up & we asked him if he had any home recordings of his solo work. months later, he sent us 83 tracks of cassette recordings between 1982 & 1987. they had been sitting upstairs in a dusty box at his parents house in italy for the last 25 years. these tracks have only been heard by a handful of his closest friends. we were completely floored & honored! finding a beautiful treasure completely untouched & preserved is so rare. the songs are raw & honest written by a romantic with a love for an anthemic chorus & a drum machine running through his veins. think early minimal depeche mode with an italian heart. ornew order covering madonna produced moroder. yes, its that good. here we have the first official italians do it better release of these songs on a 4 song 12inch ep. this vinyl only release is a teaser for the >dont give up< 18 track lp out in a couple of months. so in the meantime, slip on those gucci loafers, rev up the alfa romeo and head down to the discotheque because life is too short

emerging from afternoon studio sessions, the final scores, too many beers and then nights in an upstairs room at their local boozer, discomendments aka lee fisher (of mother >all funked up< fame) and paul kaminski have developed into a fine production unit who are into anything and everything. having started out cutting and pasting edits for their own dj use, they are now focusing on original productions that fuse different styles and genres from past to present. sleeping giant, their debut release on maxi discs, borrows unashamedly from the early network house sound, but fuses it perfectly with contemporary slo-mo house, disco and balearic vibes. whether on the beach or in the basement, the discomendments sound is equally at home! on the flip side, maxi label boss, pete herbert, turns up the heat and reworks the original into a dancefloor bomb. while disco deviant dicky trisco keeps his eye firmly on the mirror ball with a lo-slung ny influenced workout. listening to the sounds of maxi discs is guaranteed to release the pressure
