vier jahre haben sie sich zeit gelassen für den nachfolger von the king is dead . the decemberists, colin meloy, chris funk (gitarre), jenny conlee (keyboard), nate query (bass) und john moen (schlagzeug), entschlossen sich nach erfolgreichem tourende 2011, eine bandpause einzulegen und sich persönlichen dingen zu widmen. sie hatten mit the king is dead immerhin gerade ein album veröffentlicht, das in den us charts sofort auf platz 1 schoss und ihr song down by the water wurde für den grammy in der kategorie best rock song nominiert. aber ganz von der bildfläche verschwanden sie dann doch nicht. ihre animierten alter egos traten bei den simpsons auf, für den soundtrack von hunger games lieferten sie den song our engine , meloy veröffentlichte die prämierte kinderbuchserie wildwood und das livealbum we all raise our voices to the air , das ihre atemberaubende intensität auf der bühne widergibt, erinnerte uns immer wieder an die wunderbare band aus portland.

culminating the cycle of drone logic, daniel avery releases new energy, a collection of remixes including six new reworks. token records’ ace in the pack Ø phase reshapes naive response into a beautifully psychedelic techno trip whilst conforce turns the previously reflective simulrec into a militaristic stomp aimed squarely at the floor. further out still, ruthless noise experimentalist powell takes a typically esoteric approach to water jump, leaving it just as catchy in disarray as when it was first conceived.

there are times when the ocean is not the ocean - not blue, not even water, but some violent explosion of energy and danger: ferocity on a scale only gods can summon. it hurls itself at the island, sending spray right over the top of the lighthouse, biting pieces off the cliff. and the sound is a roaring of a beast whose anger knows no limits. those are the nights the light is needed most. - m.l. stedman

vanguard sound follows up on guerilla soul’s self-titled ep with label co-head chris mitchell delivering feng shui flow. feng shui flow is an exploration into deep harmonic textures in the form of three distinct offerings. a1 primordial gravitational waves- as the name suggests, inspired by the possible discovery of gravitational waves believed to be reverberations of the big bang. staccato bass and drums provide the heavy background for a pulsing bass wave, accented by synths and chords conjuring up visions of interplanetary manifestation. b1 eurínome- melancholic and intensely emotive chords and bass layered with intricate drums to paint this impression of the mysterious water goddess. b2 4th density- a synth heavy offering with several layers of bass, string like patches, and a sprinkling of choral sounds driven by a pair of kick drums into a plane of telepathy, harmony and ascension.

2014 was a busy year for ztrl and tape hiss alike. we’ve been enjoying the support of numerous music-addicts, record collectors and djs for which we are massively grateful. this is exactly why we are going back to where it all started and bringing you a new ztrl release. the tracks which are featured on jelen (’now’ in english) ep work well on their own yet they form a cohesive sound when put together. each track on the release is universal as we can think of them as dj tools in a good sense or as slowly building independent compositions. it’s up only to the djs how they wish to use them.

galdoors announces its 5th release, from label boss junes. after a run of successful eps featuring artists such as elgato, leif and audio werner, young uk producer junes steps up with three diverse cuts that push forward the labels emerging sound. despite its relative youth, the label has developed a distinctive aesthetic through minimalist, hypnotic house tracks that are making waves on both sides of the water, heavy support has come from big-boy jocks like ben ufo, daniel bell and mike huckaby. earlier this year, co-owner tamess gal004 release featured on joy orbison’s radio 1 essential mix and ben ufos dekmantel festival promo video, establishing the labels forte for delivering the best productions of its co-owners. gal005 is no exception, with junes developing his sound through an assured three-tracker. root pattern leads the way: a killer groove that cuts perfectly through an undulating melodic soundscape. on the flip, transfer bubbles over - playful yet threatening - and iced finishes off with a broken slab of soundsystem tension.

a lot of water has passed under the bridge since the release of etienne jaumet’s night music, dating from october 2009. his hypnotizing music and enchanting live performances put him directly on the map. it’s just him who is in control of his ship. he moves without complexes from his saxophone to his drum machine (his beloved tr 808) while turning knobs modulating synths, and sending his voice through an echo.la visite, etienne’s brand new album, more luminous and jazzy than its predecessor, has been composed and produced within a two month period in the versatile studio. it became a piece of introspection, mentally as well as physically. in the title track, for which flop wrote the text, we hear etienne travelling through the inside of a body, fantastic voyage style.it is always surprising to see a record taking shape. etienne would arrive at the studio without any precise idea in head, approaching his work rather intuitively. he works standing up, which brings a very different energy than being seated behind a computer polishing up every detail. he is in total mastery of his set-up, ready to capture that short-lived moment of true creation. the only use a computer has for him, is to record his experiments - afterwards being mixed by jerome caron (blackjoy).in between night music and la visite, etienne has not been lazy. not only has he done numerous collaborations (amongst others with joakim, richard pinhas, francois & the atlas mountain) and picked up djing, he has also recorded a new zombie zombie album (rituels d’un nouveau monde) with cosmic neman, as well as the soundtrack loubia hamra. and he worked with artist felicie d estienne d orves on the installation satori. at this very moment, etienne and his saxophone are still part of the tour of james holden.

with this new four-track ep by rai scott the slowly emerging producer moves away from being the enigma that appeared on a split 12- with brad peterson that launched the inner shift imprint in 2012. and by the sounds on this ep, she s someone to be noticed. preceding her forthcoming debut on ornate, scott provides another four-track called reason to smile for inner shift music. it s the fifth release for the label this year and -we love you- certainly earns its place as the record s a1, sweet and meaningful deep house. -keep on- is a dubbed out, bassline driven tribal journey of drums and low-end rhythm completed by emotional chords that eventually takeover, while -cats and water- is on a funky, stripped-back and loopy 90s techno tip. and for some ambient fun that then turns house: -sky in the clouds- is a perfect b2. an exciting producer house communities worldwide should be talking about in the second half of this year.

picking up where open water versions left off, the habits versions ep is another techno inflected project which again allows a cross section of the osiris roster to leave their own stamp on one piece of anonymous source material. leading the charge on habits versions is the second appearance from mønic whose tense, breakneck offering is the perfect complement to oscar muleros spacious interpretation, arguably the most dancefloor orientated of the release. the second half of the ep sees a heavyweight pairing of the seemingly inexhaustible killawatt and the lithe, forceful sound of amorce on their debut appearance on the osiris roster.

rsvd kicks off with this blue knife ep by its main korova. blow out track reflects the full mentality of the label and comes with a thrilling tension stepping aside a bursting obscure dark progression and sinister heavy beats. alien blood is and ufo-like deadly bassline invasion drawing a dark strong hurting texture. deep waters original mix is a playful floor-killer techno jacking track. tsunami rocking upon and over the surface. its iys remix is fine rich and dry both mental dark stomping and odd hard hitting one: simple unique. a new excellent proof for the italian duo made by fusaroli and filardo.

cgi is proud to present the debut of 2 new duos who are experts at making their synths and sequencers sweat divine moisture. lyman-alpha forest is a new collaborative project between producers grey people (proper trax, finale sessions) and talk (deconstructure). as a duo they work to bring acid into new territories with their heavy, low-slung approach to producing melodic-and-spacious yet tight-and-focused slow-burning club-weapons. whether or not this is due to a stroke of compositional genius or if it is simply a side effect of the high levels of sizzurp found in the tap water in their hometown of nashville is irrelevant, but the effect is intoxicating all the same. travel 7 hours up i-65 and you will end up somewhere in chicago where afterburner spends long cold winter nights painting vivid synthesized tapestries as epic as the citys skyline. the duo of nicholas reed (windbreaker) and travis thatcher (voice of saturn) employ an aresnal of modular and analog gear to produce lushly cinematic tracks that chug along like classic moroder productions while simultaneously evoking the rich melodicism of kraftwerk. whether you listen to them at home in the headphones or on the dancefloor in the club, these tracks will take you on a wild ride.
