following the success of the digital release of sleazy mcqueens *you know how ep*, upstart label, cvmr were compelled to press the remixes to vinyl. the proceedings open in superb style thanks to the revenges live dub. a bass heavy tool with equal parts classic house and disco, with a touch of arthur baker-style drums. on a2, sleazy mcqueens space coast take things to the basement with the help of romano arcaini (latenight society), warm rhodes, live bass and an absolute drum-break-freakout add a decidedly different dub flavor to the package. b/w compost blacks main man kasper bjorke offers his acid tinged interpretation, driven by a gritty saw-wave bass hook, rolling snare hits, wanderings arps and crunchy drums, a simply stunning piece of music as expected from the undeniably talented copenhagen born producer. closing out the remix ep, cvmr in-house producer, century strips back the vibe to a dropped tempo, emotive workout fuelled be heavily reverberated piano chords, echoing vocal lines and a general chuggy, low-slung vibe throughout.

a diverse and damaging three track ep from bone, exploring and exhibiting detroit techno musically, figuratively and spiritually. a1. here to stay (won t fade away) a nod to detroit as an ever-present - a marker by which others are measured, bone s first track on the detroit ep, here to stay (won t fade away) makes a statement above and beyond just being a fine example the music it refers to. the sumptuous melody that opens the track is accompanied by a substantial yet soft, almost warm, kick, a combination that somehow provides an atmosphere and depth way beyond merely the of the sum of its parts. more rolling percussion and drums are crisply ushered in before the here to stay (won t fade away) vocal begins looping over the composition. linear, straight up loops, grooves and rhythm give a consistent sense of railroad-esque motion atop of an ever-present vein of lush synth and melody. a track that is certainly here to stay. a2. detroit is ... soul with more of an emotional focus than symbolic this time, it s clear this one is from bone s heart. detroit is ... soul, ducks and weaves in the grey area between house and techno, the initial percussion that is brushed over the kick giving more of a house swing than a techno groove. the on/off, cut-and-dry synth chords contrast with the looser fluidity in here to stay (won t fade away), and gives a real sense of intent and desire. the real focal point however is the profound vocal that comes swirling over the top, -detroit is what i love, detroit is what i need, detroit is where i m from, detroit s the air i breathe?- no explanation necessary. b. detroit is ... hard bone rounds off part 1 of his detroit ep with aplomb. where the previous two tracks have drawn on the emotional and symbolic significance of detroit as a place and as an ideal, detroit is ... hard, cuts straight to the chase. utilizing the same vocal sample as detroit is ... soul, bone feeds things through the grinder and comes out with a late night dancefloor destroyer that blends millsian fury and red planet mystique with the archetypal subject detroit aesthetic. chaotic arpeggiated melody, indignant claps and breakneck drums and percussion are the chosen company for bone s words on this flipside to detroit is ... soul. detroit is ... hard, undoubtedly to become a mainstay for sweaty after-hours affairs the world over

release description: kenny raw & sommerfugl have released several tracks together already on a few different labels such as coincidence recordings & morninglory music. distorted reality is their first release on their own nightfalls recordings and can be described as a warm, melodic house track with a killer vocal and a rolling baseline. darren roach takes more of a dancefloor friendly derrick carter-ish approach on his remix with a groovy baseline, tough beats, loads of swing with a deep undertone running beside it. definitely one to get your body moving

yawn zen is la-based hip-hop producer ringgo anchetas debut album for stones throw. mndsgns psychedelic beats have already won him fans such as danny brown, who snapped him up to produce a track the lead track for his classic drug referencesrelease and bbc radio 1s benji b. dazed & confused described him as *one of the west coasts finest beat-smiths… each track is a patchwork of lush electronic samples blended together to create warm, sun-drenched little charmers.* on yawn zen, his debut for stones throw, mndsgn has carved himself an unusually calm-sounding place in the los angeles beat scene. the influence of labelmates madlib and j dilla on this on this collection of laid-back beats is never far off, but yawn zen has a psychedelic, jazzy flavour that equally recalls the likes of flying lotus, gonjasufi and samiyam. the vinyl lp includes a download code.

like stepping into a warm electronic sound bath, chaim’s latest release for visionquest ripples with pulsing sonic textures and propels forward at a softly galvanic pace as the slowly emerging melody takes hold in underwater. b side remember when is just as compelling - a slightly tougher edge and darkly euphoric atmosphere injected with sporadic chimes, disembodied voices and dramatic synth stabs. this is a truly hypnotising release.

the highly talented producer gardens of god is up next to release on the blossoming boso imprint with epic gluek. the three track ep takes you on an emotive journey that delves into the deep and dark with luscious pads and powerful melodies creating a vast tapestry of warm rounded sounds to stimulate the senses on the dancefloor.

in contrast to his *heart* release, scrases *another* ep provides a dark and twisted journey down more alien avenues - the streaming melodies & warm atmospheres of the previous ep supplanted by arcane wooden rhythms and mechanised bass movements. *another* delivers a slab of crawling, warehouse-weight with an eastern flavour, *movon* provides a minimal take on uk bass music fine-tuned to devastating effect. the three percussive tracks littered throughout the release explore a very different angle, combining dusty wooden rhythms with dread-filled tones and complex manipulations, lending the diverse collection of tracks a strong ritualistic feeling, topped off with a brooding remix of the title track by the ever consistent irish techno duo lakker.

the prolific lord of the isles (aka scotlands neil mcdonald) has had a string of stunning 12 inches over the past few years on labels such as permanent vacation, unthank, shevchenko, mule and of course his four track > year of the city ep< on phonica, which was widely acclaimed upon its release in 2012. this time loti presents two long-form tracks, each a mini-masterpiece in itself. the 10 minute plus >greane< bursts into life after an intro of kicks and white noise hi-hats. it continues to slowly build, with pitch-bent synth lines and a pulsing bass-line making way for a melacholic shift in mood. truly original stuff! on the flip, a swirl of synthetic strings introduces ‘gigha’, in a manner that brings to mind rhythm is rhythm’s legendary ‘kao-tic harmony’, before the drums and infectious acid-line join in. over the 8 minutes they continue to interweave and play off each other to dazzling effect. artwork by jack featherstone, the designer of a number of sleeves for border community (including the highly praised campaign behind james holden’s ‘the inheritors’, its singles and live visuals), electric minds, warm and of course, phonica.

anopolis are a collective of four thessaloniki based producers coming together for their first release on lower parts. more specifically they are based in the ano poli area of the city, hence the name. from warm analog pads to screaming acid lines combined with raw beats, anopolis provides a 90s mix tape vibe with a wide mixture of styles and sounds. included is a storming remix from elec pt.1 aka andreas gehm, the minister, manager 111.

itokim, aka tendo-based producer takuro ito, aligns with dj bone s subject detroit label with the subject japan: rhythm poems ep and his opening gambit certainly leaves a dent. -motechnique- has been a staple of bone s 3 deck attacks in recent months and it will have eyebrows raised and mouths open from the off. weighty but warm kicks start as they mean to go on, bursting with pace and vigour as thrusts and stabs pinprick the brooding chords. the laidback, easy-going connotations of the title to -roll up and shine- are very much the ethos and aesthetic of the production, as a playful, bubbling melody sets a warm and almost sugary tone from the off before being bolstered by a suave melange of full-bodied kick and dexterous percussion. itokim rounds off his first outing on subject detroit with -the mood device-, a to the point groover that melds elements of the previous productions to stunning effect. a genuine builder of a track with a straight and true trajectory, -the mood device- melds innumerable coatings of percussion and synth as stabs are layered and layered again, clotting and coagulating the composition in to one delightfully deep and multidimensional slice of formidable dancefloor composite.

as our true fans know, every now and then we leave our comfort zone to bring something else than techno. this season, we gave dib from italy the honor to be the unusual one. three tracks, three times basic, stripped down house that does well as a tool or a track in the early or deep hours of the night. or just for those people working hard at the office and wanting some deep house during their officework. all tracks have a very old skool vibe to it and breathe true deep house: not the filtered down vocal kind, but the breed that just lets a 909, 808 shine and some rhodes or warm analogue synths do the work. the first one is rather detroitish - with a nice acid stab and some strings setting the mood, the second one is more dance floor oriented and the third version is a bit of both. does it need to be said that dimitri andreas mastered it again? and that it is available on vinyl?

die roh are the legendary dj octopus (enlightened wax/hypercolour) and the mighty sagat (boss of noho records). for the fourth release of muscle records they have hosted in the brenta studios a southern talented musician known as okee ru (enetrbt/ deependence). the fruit of their occasional encounters are 3 craggy dancefloor cuts of disco infected technoid shuffled 808 beats and quirky samples, together they have blended old-school uncouthness with modern lechery. their dissolute country fellow lucretio (restoration/machines state) has delivered a methane-fuelled remix of -non è la rai-, adding illicit 90s happiness to the original beats. a remix that could easily cross-refer to his hard-to-find tunes on warm sounds.

a lot of macadam mambo’s records are coming in the same time those days, but we didn’t wanted to pass the summer without this new 12” of fresh edits. here is a selection of 3 warm/happy/sunshine disco, latino, and electrofunk tracks. as far as we can know, obscure and hard to find stuff, selected by sacha mambo (honcho at macadam mambo) and keeto (honcho at les disques superfriends) and edited by sacha mambo. this project started last winter after a gig at telephone rose in annecy (alpes), this is the 1st part of a special collaboration between keeto and sacha, a 2nd “les disques superfriends” ep is schedule for next winter. but for now, this record is the one you really need to bring joy and happiness everywhere, playable night and day

james brown reworked into a rough and ready frenzy over a bubbling analog jam - a totally infectious raw dancefloor bomb - rumoured to be the work of blue boy. flipside brings the deep calm in a larry heard style - beautiful, warm original hardware cut.

the album is featuring their production as well as compositions. with instrumentations by tenor and beats procured from the vintage gear of jori hulkkonen in his turku studio, alppihouz by willis, the album has a warm feeling and yet sufficiently exciting for the electronic house heads. there are plenty of string pads, flutes and flute pads, etc to prick up your ears. cola&jimmu once again capture the genuine, old school sound.

last year city fly unearthed a raw diamond in the form of russias alexander lay-far aka lay-far with his perfect world track being the choice cut on city flys visions volume 2 ep - its dream-like harmony, yearning female tones and warm bass culminating in a transcendent production.

second reference of the spanish label sinerec. this time the hand of german quantec, momentarily abandons those atmospheres characteristics and leads to a more usual forceful style. a very clean and not too much saturation in style chords. spaces warm and very danceable. music definitely cheerful and very valid. with the chemist makes a turn to the more techno sounds where the baseline takes an important character in the composition of the track. depth flotation and lets get wasted, down a bit of character and are ideal companions in the suitcase of a dj for their musicality and cadence that will make sure, wonders on the dance floor.

keeping in line with the trademark birdsmakingmachine sound, comes the fifth release on their self-entitled label, bmm 004. with a more straight-to-the-point approach than its predecessor, the ep starts off on the dance floor, with rumbling bass lines and heavy metallic snares juggling with effects-laden delicacies on the a1s >ahora vengo<. the arrival of >ash but not arthur< on the a2 calms things down bit and takes the listener for a gentle journey through ambient pads and cleverly swinging hi hats, while on the flip, things get a little more bouncy in >oscars critical jack<, which is mostly due to the fact its main ingredient – the solid playful bass line – blends effortlessly with the higher frequency spices, keys, strings and rhythmic parts. the end credits roll down with >bonfume<, another relatively smooth yet jacking swinger that could either be used to kick it up a notch in a warm-up set or be danced to while finding yourself at an afterhour.

myako and vincent vidal, side by side behind the dj booth, together in the studio - finally united on a record! they already let their mark on the new techno stage thanks to their powerful and deep set. they definitively wrote the catalog seconde in dazzling style, a trace of techno ink, some black on a modern white for a galactic sec003. because they think about you, myako invited his friend irakli in order to warm up the heart of the record and vincent asked larry byndon from sonotown for a superb closing. planck time ep, a key work, will be, from now on, played on a loop by those who will appreciate.

its fairly safe to say that jay bliss is on fire at the moment. now he takes time out from his recently launched stomping grounds imprint to follow up on his 2013 appearance with och on the remix ep. here the warm, punchy 9 minute a-side creates a highly seductive floor-tension. flip the disc over for two modern takes on minimalism, possibly paying homage to studio one or basic channel with persistent rhythms, undertones of original dub, shaken and stirred with plenty off bliss magic.

the hyper-chromatic music of matt cutler marks him out as a true impressionist, as lone, he drizzles brightly coloured melody through his tracks with all the reflexive skill of a master painter daubing inks and pigment across paper. on cutlers fifth lone album, reality testing, released on r&s, he sends notes and chords rippling delicately into space before allowing them to disperse, each oozing beautifully away into the background fabric of the music. combined with rhythms that ebb and flow, shifting from propulsive club constructions to beatific coastal hip-hop, it is a sensuous, immersive, heady experience, and easily his most accomplished and selfcontained work to date.
the double vinyl comes with download code for the full album.

dear reader, since ramona recently expanded her library of guilty pleasures with san laurentinos forbidden fruit back in 2012 the hungarian fantasy dreamboy hasnt been hiding in the shadows, he created one of his own. apart from the temples of techno, pulsating flesh and 48 hours of party, san laurentino found a beautiful muse and brought ramona four tracks full of luscious bass-caramel, beach-warm synths and chords and melodies sweet as no honey could possibly taste.

we have reached number 10. time to celebrate with a remix edition of the deep88 & melchior sultana project. awaiting the album release (later 2014) we asked 2 of our heroes if they would like to make a remix for us. with a lot a lot (and a lot) of happiness we announce the nightwave remix by ben >cozmo d< cenac, formerly known as dream 2 science (and sha-lor and newcleus and the cellar boyz), that made us a wonderful space trip with his dreamy synths and stylish drums. the other remix is >yo house< treated by the excellent australian producer andras fox, that converts the song into a super classy deep house one with a lot of hiss and love. the man behind > running late> really made some magic over the melody of yo house, as usual with the aim of analogue warm-tape-feel and his crazy skills.

in einer zeit, in der egozentrische schauspieler ihre talentfreiheit im game propagieren, hat sich mistahnice dagegen entschieden das typische debüt-album zu produzieren und tritt stattdessen alleine ins rampenlicht. er kehrt zurück zu seinen ruhrpottwurzeln, wo rap noch immer die gesellschaft reflektiert. er hat ein album kreiert, das sich durch teamgeist auszeichnet. der coach carter des rap hat nur die besten spieler berufen, die in dieser konstellation noch nie zusammen auf dem platz standen, aber trotzdem in der lage sind jedem gegner das fürchten zu lehren. der unbändige siegeswille wurde jedem spieler eingeimpft. inspiriert durch das live zusammenspiel mit witten untouchable, möchte mistahnice die ohren des zuhörers zu einem basketballcourt machen, um ihm einen dunk nach dem anderen einzuschenken. nice ist ein teamplayer durch und durch, zwar nicht aus witten, aber dennoch untouchable! die beiden songs -whiskeybars- und -psychiater- sind bereits als single auf vinyl erschienen und es gibt jeweils ein musikvideo dazu. auf dem label werden die kommenden alben von lakmann (creutzfeld & jakob) und weiteren mc größen des ruhrgebiets veröffentlicht sowie auch von neuen talenten.

considering the combined talents of detroit veteran terrence dixon and black jazz consortium man fred p, you d expect this split ep for finale sessions to be a lesson in warm, soul-flecked depth. pleasingly, that s exactly what it delivers. dixon excels with the sub-sporting alien futurism of -to the bridge- - the aural equivalent of staring into space while dancing to electronic jazz - and the sumptuous, minor key bliss of the casual deep house jam -starting over-. fred p, meanwhile, delivers two contrasting cuts. there s some acid-fuelled deep house futurism in the shape of -circuit-, and a chunk of bongo-laden dancefloor humidity in -the road-, whose rising strings and sweet melodies are arguably the highlight of a superb ep.
