there is a point where memory and vision meet. the point where sparks and vertigo are produced and where imaginary landscapes produce sounds and visions. from this friction of times and places are born the music of the common series 07 (las canchas). star maps, existential paths, fables and planetary vision are filtered in the living mixer of the producer marco erroi and returned in the form of soundscapes, sudden encounters and lightning strikes, beyond the known places. 200 limited copies!

livity sound continues to be one of the most innovative labels of its era with another essential release, this time in the form of a debut long player from forest drive west. this extended 2 x 12” and digital release, apparitions lands in october 2018 and is a fascinating further development of the producer s intricate fusions of techno, dub and jungle. * the acclaimed uk artist has released two eps on the label before now, as well as on its sister label dnuos ytivil and the likes of hidden hawaii, appian sound, and london drum & bass outlet rupture. little is known about the london based producer but in just a couple of years he has established his own unique blend of complex rhythms and tactile sound design, distilling a rich history of uk musical influences into fresh new forms. * this record continues in that tradition with a mix of sparse rhythm tracks that contrast heavy weight drum programming with rich and deft sound design. from menacing and mysterious, to cinematic and hypnotic, it makes for a compelling and immersive experience. apparitions is a landmark release for one of the uk s most exciting new producers.

includes poster & download! second release on veyl. an experiment in noise & body music. specialist maenad veyl returns with six tracks of relentless electro-influenced heat full of broken 808s, ai-generated polyrhythms and indecipherable vocals.

colin potter is a sound engineer and musician currently based in london. he has worked within the fields of electronic and experimental music for over 35 years, collaborating with the likes of current 93, the hafler trio, organum, andrew chalk, and most notably as a key part of nurse with wound alongside steven stapleton. he started the esteemed icr (integrated circuit recordings) label in 1981 releasing a clutch of wonderful home recordings of his own, over half a dozen small run cassette only releases. ‘the where house?’ was recorded in 1981 at ic studio, a converted wash house in sutton on the forest in north yorkshire. the album was self-released on cassette that same year via icr. this expanded double lp edition features all 13 tracks from the original tape on vinyl for the first time plus 4 bonus tracks. ‘the where house?’ is a prime example of early uk post-punk/industrial electronic music. “combining dub, electro, and krautrock rhythms with psychedelic, kosmische noise in multiple mutations ranging from almost pop-wise songcraft to horizon-scanning motorik flights,” says boomkat. most of the damage was done by colin using guitars, synths, sequencers, drum machines, percussion, and modified toy keyboards with fairly primitive 4-track recording equipment. he was assisted on some of the tracks by stephan jadd-parry (guitar, percussions), jon caffery (guitar, bass, e-bow, percussion) and nick jackson (synth). all songs have been remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. the record is sleeved in a replica of the original cassette artwork by jonathan coleclough. every copy includes a double sided postcard insert with notes from colin.

after 7 releases, rivulet records says goodbye. the very last release comes from cofounder stanley schmidt in collaboration with his long time friend hobor. the two leipzig based artists had the idea to release an album together for years and to finally bring the work to an end as well as to the label felt just right. the album itself ranges from eerie and otherworldy ambient tracks to banging lofi-jungle sounds. it mirrors the musical taste and exchange of the two artists. listen to it at home in full length, or play it in the club when the time is right – it works both. rivulet records says thank you to all the artists, dancers, listeners and friends. it has been great. leipzig, 2018

john morales geht dahin, wo noch kein dj war. das universalgenie aus der bronx, das in diesem sommer resident dj bei defecteds glitterbox-event auf ibiza war und aktuell in londons angesagtem bussey building auflegt, veröffentlicht ein abendfüllendes programm. er präsentiert unveröffentlichte mixe mit klassikern von weltstarts wie donna summer, barry white, diana ross, level 42, cher, teddy pendergrass, eddie kendricks und vielen anderen. satte vier cds oder zwei separat erhältliche doppel-lps ist diese einmalige zusammenstellung lang. john morales legt seit mehr als drei jahrzehnten auf und hat in dieser zeit über 800 remixe produziert. der vierte teil seiner -m+m mixes- ist zweifelsohne sein bislang ehrgeizigstes projekt. 32 stücke hat er seiner komplexen und unverkennbaren behandlung unterzogen und sie so noch einmal neu erfunden. dafür bekam er, was kaum einem dj gelang: man gewährte ihm zugang zu den original-mehrspuraufnahmen aus den archiven. wenn boiler room ihn als einen -der besten produzenten und arrangeure von disco-musik- beschreibt, ist das eher noch untertrieben. keiner mixt wie john morales.

3 x lp - triple-vinyl lp, gatefoldsleeve, limited edition, download code for 3 bonus track. now with over 20 years of releases behind him, oliver huntemann finds himself on the cusp of yet a new era in his career. propaganda is the fifth proper artist album from the hamburg-based dj/producer, and like each of its predecessors, it shows a different side to one of the most consistently rewarding names in techno. released on his own senso sounds label, the album exudes the level of assurance that perhaps only comes with being so active in curating and developing a label that has stood out from the masses since its inception in 2014.

(new 2017 masters) after the widespread success of the first minimal vision compilation on the resurgent vibraphone recordings, the true underground sound of rome return with a second volume that takes in tracks made over a 23 year period. what comes across is how consistent the sound is, whenever an individual jam was made. the same heavy-lidded melodics and easy-funking rhythm sections prevail across all nine cuts here, at times hitting the uplifting pace of vertigo or heading into the meditative pastures of sea bird, but always maintaining that quintessential vibraphone feeling. the diggers will be happy to snag the reissued tracks as well as discovering completely fresh material from rome s premier deep house institution.

auf notorious war der funk ein deutlich hörbarer einfluss, denn der chic-gitarrist nile rodgers produzierte das album und amerikanisierte den sound duran durans.

the genre-crossing 8-track album is the first of a trilogy, inspired by one of the colombian-native’s local legends jaime llano gonzalez, a colombian hammond organist famous for playing traditional colombian music such as pasillos, bambucos, cumbias, and foreign rhythms such as foxtrots or waltzes, in an ambient style.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

despite only a few releases, the electronic deep house sound of vibraphone records and the production team behind it had a major impact on the international 1990 s dance scene. the original 90 s vinyls are now considered precious collectors items. revitalized by an increasingly new young audience interest this label has reached a cult status and it is now been re-launched

for our 10th release we have one of our in-house artists, xpansul, delivering his first solo release on vinyl in a long time.
on benthos, xpansul takes his distinctive techno sound to the next level, exploring new ways whilst digging deep into his roots, resulting in an exciting and mature sound.
the drums are rougher, the grooves dirtier and the main dish, the synths, are carefully designed to express the emotions that inspired these tracks: restlessness and claustrophobia on blue vertigo, melancholy on oxygen toxicity, euphoria and anger on blackout and the burden of impatience on the bends. to close the ep, oxygen toxicity heliox mix, a dj friendly version of the original that results on a very emotional peak time techno track.
techno tracks to be played funking loud!

nice price deal !!! massive support by mathias kaden and nico purman !! great feedback from troy pierce, josh wink, agoria, tiefschwarz ... the story continues … the other head of the slash label points out a deep and also percussive mood for the uprising enterprise. pherox gives an impression of the most interesting modern club music today. the -atletico ep- could be david lynch s personal soundtrack for his paranormal stories. exclusive on decks.de this is a limited release

* after almost 20 years of making tracks with blaringly loud kicks, you tend to start producing with the other elements first to give yourself a break from the constant pounding of monitors at point blank range. following an analog filter shopping spree, i began working on a group of tracks where the low end was satisfied by the filtering, and realized these songs worked just fine without a bass drum. therefore this record is called “rareforms” since most of my other work consists of a kick drum and lots of loud effects. this record is dedicated to the brilliant synthesist and interpreter isao tomita, whose records always provide inspiration in the lab. also to master storyteller rod serling and his frequent collaborator bernard hermann, whose score for the hitchcock film vertigo i adapted through some midi processes and wavetable synthesis, then sent it through a 4-foot spring reverb.* - phil moffa

awesome new album from stockholm s ever morphing production/live unit. skudging the depths as you expect and exploring yet more sounds along the way. big tip! first edition - limited to 500 copies

chicago basement trax returns with an homage to the king of the raw himself ron hardy. those that experienced ron hardy first hand will tell you there was a vibe like no other. a minimal space with strobe lights and a bangin system. if you put your hands on an eq or isolator as a dj thank ron as being an innovator of this creative style of frequency manipulation. not only did ron drop the bass, he dropped whole songs to expose the beautiful crispy hi hats, vocals and then romanced you with the piano before slapping your whole body with the beat. this ep does its job to take you there, just close your eyes and blast off!

deko deko are lena seik and tristan schulze, based in leipzig, germany. the duo creates their music by computer, synthesizer and vocals. conventional song structures are fractured and deconstructed to be reconstructed and defragmented in the end. that might sound experimental but deko deko write hymns with orchestral parts and mad choirs, but always electronical too. neustadt is the first album of the band, to be released on o*rs in september 2016

berlin duo soukie & windish are releasing their second long-player work ‘loom’ on their home label ‘ursl records’ this coming may. an album for the moment, looming its way through our moves with its dreamy, escapist moods. loom carries accents of dirty micro-pop while managing to be both upbeat and deep simultaneously. it is an album of tension — pushing out through every carefully selected drum and every distant, distorted synth line. it marks the moment when you decide not to go home.

the florida based brookside imprint have dug deep into the philly master tapes and let nyc master-mixer mike maurro loose on a couple of stone cold classics from the catalog!

hailing from florida, the brookside imprint have dug deep into the master tapes and let nyc master-mixer mike maurro loose on a couple of stone cold classics! maurro, a queens based dj and mixer since 1986 has become one of the top remixers out there today with his own, faithful takes on numerous dance classics from the last 30+ years. here he lends his magic touch to a pair of well loved club classics while adding his own original flavour. dan hartman s -vertigo/relight my fire- is up first on side-a, featuring the unmistakable vocals of nyc diva loleatta holloway. maurro s mix brings the vocals in earlier, dubbing them out creating a super trippy atmosphere with a slightly different musical arrangement over the course of almost 14 minutes! on side-b, we have the legendary evelyn -champagne- king s -shame-, with a slightly longer, beat led intro for the dj s. a true extended mix with a slightly different arrangement maurro s mix of this classic is a killer. beautifully faithful and mixed with love and an understanding of the dancefloor and the classics! these mixes are essential for any disco/soul/funk fans out there, unmissable for the dj s, legitimately remastered and pressed onto high quality 12- singles in conjunction with all rights holders

shlomo opens the ep with a deep and droning, yet uptempo track. ben gibson continues on the a-side with a synth and tom-driven track, in which the main synth really draws you into the track. takaaki itoh is put on the b1 spot and continues the deep vibe the artists set on the a-side, yet in a more minimalistic way. his track keeps on evolving and growing ever more, while the track in it s core does not change that much. overall severity closes the ep off with a moody banger. this dance floor oriented track focuses on percussive elements and the drums a lot. this track is one of the last ones made by the late max_m, who formed overall severity together with wrong asessment, which makes this ep a little bit more special. four different artists, but a great sounding ep with four tracks that compliment each other really well!

two new original tracks by sebo k plus remixes by diego krause and djebali of his tracks a journey and nexus which were released on the first release of his scenario imprint. vinyl only

mikal is a producer who has made a name for himself by making stand out drum & bass tracks that have caught the attention of djs and listeners alike, he has released on a multitude of labels but it is metalheadz that are releasing his debut album.
the album is called ‘wilderness’ and it was very much worth the wait. a no nonsense statement of intent from the bristol based produced who has been quietly working away in his studio and is now ready to show the world his work, collaborations on the album come from chimpo, xtrah, break, riot and sophie barker.

craig peyton was a mainstay in nyc jazz and dance music beginning in the 70s. from playing on dan hartmans -vertigo/relight my fire- to his work on boogie funk productions with daryl payne, he is one of the unsung heroes of the era where disco transitioned into house music. his drum machine and synth based cover of william devaughans -just be thankful- came out on profile records in 1983, a daring move for a white man trained on the vibes. he gives the jam a haunting and funky rework that has only escalated in popularity over the years. it has been bootlegged extensively while original copies remain quite elusive.

vactrol park is an honest outpouring of thematic obsession, a celebration of championed studio components and the mastery of their nuance, an avant garde collaboration between kyle martin (land of light, spectral empire) and guido zen (gamers in exile, brain machine). simply entitled i (the first of a 2 part series), this debut ep opens the door to a world of ebb and flow, layers of oscillation falling in and out of sync, keeping us on the brink of vertigo and, as cliché as it may sound, we find solace in its chaos. this homogeneous release plays with the notions of systems as beautifully symbolized mario hugo s capsule of cardiologyyet another visually arresting module in the esp institute catalogue. some music is made for drugs, some is made on drugs, these tracks simply are drugs.

on this new record hailing from aarhus, central delivers a more or less floor friendly collection of works. with his curious and unorthodox approach to dance music, this ep offers 4 very different pieces of music. the opening track fresh context a vivid yet robust house jam is followed by the spontaneous and unpolished gentle vertigo. b side starts off with fell, a moody and eerie spin in experimento land. the final track kessem is a melodic and punchy cut. central delivered releases on nord records and yield earlier this year, revealing respectively a darker techno game and a loose house vibe. to those who arent familiar with help recordings, central s widespread sound offers a premium introduction to the labels output. playful yet serious.

lp with printed deluxe sleeve - original sound track of sundance film festival award indie movie *the summer of sangaile*, music written by j.b. dunckel (one of the 2 air members - his solo name also being darkel). pressing on translucent 12 inch vinyl.

its that time again at ccb headquarter for reaping the harvest of another good year for the label. the paris club music, volume 3 is here and the journey is better than ever. once again the full crew worked hard to deliver this time a more contemplative yet still percussive set of tracks exploring the dance music of tomorrow. first in the field bambounou and french fries teams up for mizu ni idou suru an intimate slow mo thing playing with intricate rhythm textures and dusty key stabs fading away in the back.

cotton claw is a brand new project that brings together four french producers : lileanarrative, zo aka la chauve- souris, yoggyone and zerolex. real live band, each on his pad controller, cotton claw takes us into their world tinged of powerful club music, fluffy house music using massive analog synth, unstoppable arpeggios and sexy granular melodies. the four members of cotton claw, have met in order to play together each part in live, to create a new modern live band, to take and give pleasure to the dancefloor, and give their vision of club music.

the folks from playfulscience proove their passion for an advanced sound for the -later- moments...strong beats programming meet advanced pads so to lift you up to. very nice 4-tracker!

kensuke fukushima is an up and coming talent from japan. growing up heavily influenced by rock and jazz, he learned to play multiple instruments like lead and bass guitar as well as piano. he s had a few previous releases on labels such as onovu & leap records and was featured on a recent v/a ep on roundabout sounds entitled, fly pattern ep. label boss joe babylon reached out to detoit house legend d wynn to remix the title track. for those that don t already know, d wynn was the resident dj at the histroic music institute as well as tour dj for inner city. he s also one half of r-tyme with derrick may.

what does a rave sound like the next day? the strobe lights in a dark warehouse, the pounding kick, the blur of ecstatic faces lead to a morning-after emptiness, all fade into memories of the friends you once had. on ode, tin man (proper name johannes auvinen) explores this feeling, offering tracks which possess an exhausted joy, the aural equivalent of the stretch of time beginning when the last record is played and stretching on towards the doleful contemplation of last night’s unmade sheets. appropriately, tin man’s melancholic dance music is more club-ready than ever.
the double 12 inch lp comes in gatefold sleeve with download code included.

patrice baeumel presents two adventurous minimal epics with decidedly mind-bending propensities

its safe to say that without vito & druzzi, we wouldn’t be here today. indeed, along with the other members of the rapture (ever heard of them?) and james friedman, they founded throne of blood. our histories go hand in hand. after releasing classic albums on labels like sub pop, dfa, vertigo, and motown- and spending more than a decade touring the world with lcd soundystem, soulwax, the cure, interpol, and franz ferdinand to name a few- vito & druzzi have spent the last few years shifting their focus towards djing and production, building a studio in brooklyn and churning out the jams. its been a labor a love and were very happy to present you with the first fruits of their collaboration
