anoma is proud to get things started with its maiden double sided 12-, featuring a collaboration between eccentric trooper -dr. beat- san proper and anoma records founder ohm hourani. side a : -triple x- - abstract lyrics mouthed to describe a blurry path to somewhere. accompanied by several acoustic elements, organic patterns and a healthy dose of soul. in the end, it s all about life, death & sex. side b : -she s gone- - atypical drum beat held in place by atmospheric sounds that promise to hold you tight until the wee small hours of the morning. the vocals tell a story that happened when you were not looking. this record will be enveloped by a cover sleeve that features an exquisite painting entitled -earthache- by our art director laucolo.

franz meersdonk und günther willers aka rdf are back on the road. the speedometer obviously tweaked, turned up and back on track. on the way tramper simon sunset got on board, et voila: made himself comfortable in the back cabin. left a bunch of wood back there. they drove the semi right into the sawmill and took care of the rough pre-cut themselves. cutter lowtec supported the two street heroes with all he’s got, or rather, he actually applied his own cutting-machine-operation. simon sunset’s wood cuttings were molded by a bunch of saws, slicers, and files. and for a final fine-tuning herb lf came running out of the canteen. and lo and behold, the machines spit out three beautifully stable pieces of wood with the finest texture- pattern captured in a stable frame of bark. so good was the material to begin with that nothing was left over for old, stinky bark mulch

>> oh it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. the trombones crunched redgold under my bed, and behind my gulliver the trumpets three-wise silverflamed, and there by the door the timps rolling through my guts and out again crunched like candy thunder. oh, it was wonder of wonders. and then, a bird of like rarest spun heavenmetal, or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now, came the violin solo above all the other strings, and those strings were like a cage of silk round my bed. then flute and oboe bored, like worms of like platinum, into the thick thick toffee gold and silver. i was in such bliss, my brothers.<

young jessie is one of the unheralded greats of the r&b, rock & roll and soul eras. beginning his career as a young teenager in la vocal group the flairs (with schoolmate richard berry, later of louie louie infamy), he then signed on with modern records and cut several high quality r&b sides through the mid-1950s

bobby b (a.k.a andre ferreira) is perhaps best known as bobby browser, as he is previously issued a pair of eps for the 100% silk label under that name. those records were excellent, but its fair to say that his icee hot debut finds ferreira exploring a richer, deeper sound. >history< is slow-burning deep house jaunt that subtly nods to detroit along the course of its soul-drenched journey. >so true< warms things up, but only slightly, as its relaxed tones, warbling melodies, and loosely stitched breakbeat offer a blissed-out path to the dancefloor.

taken from a mysterious acetate cut by derrick may in 1987 this release was originally penned for kms offshoot pheerce citi. both these sides were later released - the darkside = as a relic (by longer than long ago) and tic tic tic was later released on the limited edition compilation as music institute 20th anniversary as untitled. both tracks are however, very hard to get on vinyl and have now been re issued as loud 45rpm pressings in pheerce citi artwork and remastered for 2014. great techno obscurity!

for its eighth release apartment delivers its first long player, by mysterious producer, vernon (dixon avenue basement jams / night gallery). little is known of this artist – what we do know is that his formative years were spent in belgium, immersing himself in the emerging new beat and ebm sounds emanating from the countrys dance clubs. for his release on apartment he has created 6 tracks that reflect these early influences, whilst also taking in other techno, house and electro influences. pounding drums, rasping hi-hats, rave stabs, twisting acid lines and grinding synths all come together under the unique tutelage of this most skilled of producers, all the while watched by the experts…

late night running is a rotterdam-based multidisciplinary initiative that is created out of sympathy for those who are willing to run hard for their beliefs. when one is sucked through the barriers of time, where days become nights and vice versa, we like to speak of late night running. the first physical effort out of the lnr camp comes in the form of a nicely designed 12inch by the likes of 25 places. this duo has its roots in the working class city of rotterdam, but also lived elsewhere for some time, working long nights in the advert industry. theyve been based in berlin for several months in 2012, where the x9 ideas were first create

rarely you come across a record which embodies dubstep so well that rallies the entire scene behind it. from the brosteppers to the deep heads this record has been getting love from all corners of the earth. were talking about under control the latest outing from germanys next top wobble aka bukez finezt. its eerie intro sets the tone perfectly to interlude this hypnotic stomper. once the sonic warfare is unleashed itll transport you to a word of desolation, where aliens run rampant and technology has absorbed everything around them

dj support from rich medina, kev beadle, dj cash money, eavesdrop radio and kcrw. fatnice is multi talented to say the least. the avant garde mc, producer, singer, and writer grew up listening to tons of records and tapes from his aunts collections which were comprised primarily of soul and funk gems. a prolific house head, fatnice became entrenched in the boombap sounds of hiphop via the roar of melle melle rhyming the message in 1982. an avid writer of poetry fatnice found it addicting being able to combine rhymes with beats to create music.

part 2 of the heavenly reissue from e-dancer aka kevin saunderson. containing the original versions of heavenly and world of deep which were only available as limited 12inches in 1998.

it is a two heads job. parisians producers pawn heart and fareed (also half of the techno duo society of silence) deliver a first split ep. for over a year, influenced by the raw sound of detroit and chicago, they were exchanging tips and compositions, catching each other, when possible, in the cold but intense urban landscape, drawn between northern paris neighbourhoods and banlieue.

nice price deal !!! free usa is the first full-length album by protect-u, the washington, dc-based duo of aaron leitko and future times records co-founder mike petillo. the record was written, recorded, and mixed throughout 2013 at protect-us home studio and mastered by matt colton at alchemy mastering. the tracks on free usa were jammed into being and then laser-cut into exact shapes. on their two future times eps - double rainbow and world music - leitko and petillo poured layers of ambient drift onto nearly-steady house foundations, creating long and propulsive zone-outs.

the cellar boyz *pay me* is taken from ben cenacs timeless cozmic house ep on thug records. pay me which was recorded in 1986 is the only track from the cozmic house e.p that had available parts. the stems for deeper & deeper, seems to me & who loves you were never recorded. this was due to the fact that all of bens projects through out the 90s were tracked midi only at mix down, with only the vocals being recorded to tape! thug would never have had the opportunity to release ben cenacs cozmic house 12 inch if it had not been for simoncino. simoncino did all the a&r for the record. a gift not only for thug but any fans of ben cenacs amazing productions. with that in mind, simoncino has provided 2 remixed versions of pay me, alongside a remix from close friend nicholas!

volt 002 various ideas features vakula, siamak amidi, animous, miruga and nasrawi. the compilation comes as a double-sided release, and can be found wax-cut only! this compilation is the second release for vinyl-exclusive label volt music. the tracks were hand picked for their subtle strokes of emotion, and smooth movements. although the music varies in genre, from deep house, dub techno, trip hop and atmospheric acid, the compilation comes together much like an artwork of different colors with one underlining theme.

asan has been making music for some time. he is geographically the closest artist to lampuka records, yet lamp004 has taken us the longest to complete thus far. we had hoped this to be asans debut release but we were pipped to the post whilst he was on his travels. gladly though we have what we think is a superfluous release…and well worth the wait. no remixes here, just four solid bangers.

shortly after the dust under bridges ep was released, henri sent us nine tracks which he had previously recorded to tape, not thinking that they were worthy of release. on the contrary, these are nine tracks of beautiful, brooding, leftfield house and techno, and we decided immediately that they ought to be available to the public, and that they formed a perfect appendage to halvtraks debut 12 inch release, dust under bridges, written, as they were, during the same period.

vinyl only release! alan doe, rue de plaisances 13th outing. following his first release on rue de plaisance various, he now offers up his first solo ep. four deep, dark and groovy analog-sounding tracks. were really proud to deliver his first project. personal and timeless music.

as a precursor to kabale und liebes debut album, soweso records releases the sammy hoboken ep in april as a teaser of whats to come. almost 20 years ago, liron van daalen was inspired to become a dj after his cousin explained that the mixtapes liron adored were created by one person seamlessly mixing one record into another. that revelation set off a chain of events that has seen him adopt the alias kabale und liebe and rise up to become one of hollands most exciting and reputable electronic music artists.

nice price deal !!! xenogears is the name of the first studio project of marieu and lucretio, also known as the analogue cops. with this moniker they released a bunch of seminal techno cuts on the first chapters of their restoration imprint, back in 2007. tracks which were played by legends as anthony shakir, claude young and the suburban knight. now the xenogears are back with their first album *lost artemis*, showcasing their distinctive fast, detroit-inspired hardware techno. the album features a collaboration with their usual collaborator nomadronin (with whom they run the label bratha) and with the talented producer known as objekt. all the tracks are characterized by a strong fascination for hi-tech synthesizers and rusted vintage gears, a fast pace, and a minimal approach to live mixing. they have explored the subterranean territories between post-atomic noises and apocalyptic breakbeats, finding a way to equate machines with funkiness in an open battlefield.

talk about saving the best until last. if you thought that the first two parts of awanto 3s opel mantra trilogy were good, just wait until you hear part 3. it delivers a brilliantly breathless conclusion to what could well be one of the strongest debut albums of 2014. by now, you should know the script. amsterdam producer steven van hulle has previously shown glimpses of his musical talents, either with sporadic solo productions (see his superb 2010 debut on rush hour, for five), or alongside friends from the dutch scene (san proper, young marco and tom trago, in particular). opel mantra, a debut album split across three 12 inch singles (a cd version will follow later in the year), is his big reveal – our first chance to wallow in his unique and thrilling fusions of deep house, detroit techno and a multitude of vivid global influences.

the story behind this record begins in 2004 on newbury street in boston massachusetts. juice belushi founding member paul foley is dressed head to toe in 80s regalia, including vest, fingerless leather gloves, fedora and chain connecting nose-ring to ear pierce. its like a scene out of michael jacksons bad, minus the dancing. at his feet is a boom box blasting freestyle and 80s electro-funk, hes handing out mix cds. needless to say we were intrigued!

the new year starts with the welcome news that the cosmologist returns with episode three of the cosmology series. trip 1 started life as a tribute to 70s radical firebrands the last poets and their 1977 clarion call to arms, *its a trip*. a loose and ever changing collective, the initial line up was formed on may 19.1968 to mark malcolm xs birthday, having all met at east wind, a harlem based writers work shop. they took their name from a revolutionary south african poet keorapetse kgositisile who rightly prophesized that the talking would soon give way to the persuasiveness of the gun. continuing that thought, civil rights for african americans was very much the beat of the last poets, a cause they would champion and indeed, were not afraid to back up their mighty words with direct action.

when the aquaplano records were first released in 2008 and 2009, emerging out of hardwax with little fanfare, they were distinctly out of step with the way techno appeared to be heading. the minimal detour was reaching its logical endpoint, and producers were returning to the 1990s for inspiration, with berghain and sandwell district at the vanguard of a new techno movement. what the aquaplano sessions shared in common were slower bpms and finding inspiration in the 1990s, but there they parted ways. the influences these italians were drawing on were rather different, returning to tribal rhythms and ambient textures to sketch out a much more heady, psychedelic form of techno.
